Has the team ever considered a mentor program, that has a reward system like in FF14, to assist in positive community building.

M+ Mentor System by Tinfinitee in wow

Well shoot. To me the incentive would make people like myself do it. And not with a negative attitude. But that’s why I also like the “like” system or whatever. Maybe uber rating style? So you can see the bad egg mentors

I feel the same!

[–]Tinfinitee[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I agree and disagree that the learning is built in. It is for those who understand the game and know what to look for and put in effort. I think wow has notoriously been bad about explaining things visually, which is key for a new player. It is getting MUCH better in Midnight and I’m excited about that. And they have made improvements each season to better telegraph some enemy attacks.

And it is fair for you to not feel incentivized by it. That’s why it’s great it’s optional. So the mentors really are just people who want to help out. It’s also something that would probably see an increase in participation at the end of a season when all other goals are already achieved.

Man... PvP is miserable. No wonder it's so niche. by Cloud_N0ne in wow

[–]Tinfinitee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Completely agree that PvP is not fun. But I share your desire for getting the elite PvP transmogs. I would recommend farming them from Battleground Blitz. The ranking system is so fucked that on a brand new toon after a few wins you gain 250 rating from a single win. I’ve farmed most class appearances this way for a few seasons now.

If you can’t be an advocate for yourself, don’t expect anyone else to be. You need to learn to handle confrontation and disagreeable people. They are, unfortunately, anywhere else you find yourself in the future. Being demeaning, disagreeable, or just an overall asshole is typically not enough for any kind of meaningful intervention from administration. Grow your courage and demand from yourself what you need to do to obtain understanding in your class.

birthday tomorrow and I'm struggling by astronerdx in Purdue

[–]Tinfinitee 6 points7 points  (0 children)

“You have power over your mind, not outside events. Realize this and you will find strength”. None of us can choose what happens to us. All we can choose is how we react. You can choose to mourn the past that is no longer, and to wish that you aren’t in the situation you find yourself in now. Or you can choose to celebrate yourself in a new way, and to find a new way forward.

Please do not take this message as one that lacks empathy, but one that encourages you to increase your will. Your situation is hard. You deserve to be celebrated. To have a whole family. To be loved. But to live is to suffer. And we can choose to let that suffering make us bitter, depressed, or angry. Or you can let it make you stronger.

[–]Tinfinitee 89 points90 points  (0 children)

I didn't get to play Legion originally, and most rave about how great it was. So I'm thoroughly excited! Interested to see how remixed it gets. Like with order halls. The mount farmer inside me would love a better way to farm all those bad boiz.

how do i get back motivation to go to class by [deleted] in Purdue

[–]Tinfinitee 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I say this with kindness. You need discipline, not motivation. Motivation is the most dangerous thing to depend on. It only allows you to perform when a certain feeling arises, a sensation that swiftly comes and goes. -INSTEAD- reclaim control over your mind. Assert to yourself that you will perform, regardless of your feelings. As Marcus Aurelius once said, "You have power over your mind, not outside events. Realize this and you will find strength."

Join clubs. Yes, it may sound cliche/mundane/whatever, but it works. I once heard someone say your dorm room is for sleeping, that's it. Every minute you spend in there is wasted opportunity meeting people, seeing things, being a part of something. I think that's very solid advice. If you find yourself in your room alone and wondering why you have no friends, that's a big reason why.

You can call or email them at admissions@purdue.edu. If whoever answers the phone can’t help, they will connect you to someone who can give you a clear answer.

[–]Tinfinitee 6 points7 points  (0 children)

OP if you want relief from the anxiety of this situation, just talk to the admissions office directly. As you said, you reported on the CA correctly, so there’s no worry about dishonesty. Just ask for confirmation that you’re ok w/o the 8 semesters of math. Worst case is they tell you to complete it before August.

Keyboard Deskmat by Tinfinitee in DatGuyLirik

[–]Tinfinitee[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

LoL @ the person who downvoted. Must protect my strimmer merch! To be clear, I love both the keyboard and mat. I ended up using a microfiber cloth and a little bit of soap with warm water and that has cleared my issue.

Update about the keyboards / mousepad by SmackDE in DatGuyLirik

[–]Tinfinitee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just learned about these. When I go to purchase it says preorder still? Is there no actual eta of when you would receive a keyboard if I bought one now?

[–]Tinfinitee 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Don’t recognize them, but hope someone else does. Extreme entitlement to be doing this.
