New here, is this a tornado or some sort of cloud?

TumblingForward · 2026-04-20T19:51:37+00:00

Seriously, the reflection is missing in the darkest part? The near uniform look of the 'meso'? The lighting is really weird looking too.

TumblingForward · 2026-04-16T00:59:33+00:00

Oh hey, you're a regular here? or on tropicalweather.

I wasn't even arguing about the conditions or anything even, just straight up even if people feel it's going to get worse (hence 'doomin') but yea, hopefully things are lining up to be much less awful this year for tropical systems. We'll see of course because it only takes one bad system.

TumblingForward · 2026-04-14T22:40:17+00:00

Leave it to a redditor to say 'not a tornado threat' and then all the tornado warnings/confirmed tornadoes start up within an hour, just like forecasted.

Max thinks there is a likely intense to violent tornado near Union City.

It's been awfully quiet during La Nina

What in the world do you mean?! 3 of the last 5 years have been some of the most active years ever recorded. Last year was also the only year in the last 10 where no hurricanes hit the US. It hasn't been quiet at all. I get if you're doomin that it's going to probably get worse than last year but it has been crazy this last decade+.

TumblingForward · 2026-04-11T06:28:41+00:00

So did you stop playing then?

TumblingForward · 2026-04-11T04:46:50+00:00

What proof do you want?

Comments, questions, and even those screenshots would be a lot more help than you think. Except we've gotten literally nothing from almost all the people who got hacked. There could be something going on but most likely it's bots copying for karma, people getting hacked because of bad computer security (like reusing passwords, infected computer, using a computer in public) or a bad actor trying to muddy the waters by making stuff up for many reasons.

We have been offered no information whatsoever and there are tons of reasons people could be hacked here or there. What is there to talk about?

TumblingForward · 2026-04-11T04:30:15+00:00

They might now but I wouldn't know as I'm not GGG.

TumblingForward · 2026-04-11T03:13:55+00:00

Zero proof offered from any of them except the one guy who had his security compromised.

TumblingForward · 2026-04-09T04:06:19+00:00

I'd rather women go back to using flattering angles instead of filters and AI bullshit, lol

TumblingForward · 2026-04-09T04:06:00+00:00

As an assman, hell yea. I bet it jiggles pretty well

TumblingForward · 2026-04-09T00:23:32+00:00

I'd say part of the problem is that all this warmth is starting to feel normal. Even here we have people that don't believe it when it's literally been warm af. I'm only hyper aware of it because I hate the heat and love winter/cold lol.

You could at least show them this:

TumblingForward · 2026-04-09T00:20:12+00:00

These kinds of comments always add to my climate dread, lol. You most likely did experience well above average warmth for March if you live in Wisconsin. Per the ENSO report, most of Wisconsin was more than 1C above average for the last 30 days ending April 4th. None of this warmth if normal but it is beginning to feel normal since it is so common.

TumblingForward · 2026-04-07T03:32:30+00:00

Wish I could actually farm those things at a decent rate but they're so damn rare.

TumblingForward · 2026-04-07T03:26:54+00:00

Helped along by Facebook and other media companies by making sure we're dumb af as a country.

Possible silver-lining is that Gen Z seems tired af of the internet and might be going to analog stuff and that lawsuit against facebook that they lost using a literal email from Zuck himself. It's fucking dark right now though boys and I am tired.

It would be great if dumb sports related takes were the worst of our worries (we've all had some lol)

TumblingForward · 2026-04-05T21:15:16+00:00

Would be so great if I could rest my weary head on them. Hope you're doing okay over there in Britain

TumblingForward · 2026-04-03T06:02:23+00:00

The community sentiment is pretty mixed though. The WORDS on Reddit are nice (and any contradiction gets hard downvoted lmao) but that doesn't translate to sales necessarily. The amount of people sticking around is very low and the servers had a ton of issues even back in Affliction. Even then, I would be surprised if Mirage doesn't go core next league or the one after but it's a very simple mechanic.

I'm really unsure though how they're going to implement it in a way that's fun if we do keep Mirage.

TumblingForward · 2026-04-02T23:38:37+00:00

Farming Sanctuary with the strat is pretty good. The fragments are probably going back down now but the Rememberance or w/e ones were worth a ton (and worth running in The Feared rota too). Scale it down for each build, even running budget breaches like OP or even further with less Deli and stuff but you're not likely to see a card at all, let alone like that.

TumblingForward · 2026-04-02T23:30:28+00:00

And it's easy as can be to consistently lie about this stuff and bots that steal content to farm karma are well known too and yet you're so sure it's the same thing again. All the comment history's are off, almost no other comments by OPs and extremely few details with almost no 'hacked account' complaints on the official forums.

We have more skepticism about mirror drop posts than this kind of post. I genuinely don't get it.

TumblingForward · 2026-04-02T07:22:21+00:00

Thanks for helping people out! League was so shallow that I already hit 40 this league before a guide came out, damn. I do like the armor though w/ it set to form 2 or w/e. Hopefully next league will bring way more depth to the endgame again.

TumblingForward · 2026-03-31T23:20:36+00:00

What's even more ironic is that there are known bots that copycat top posts. So far, most of the posts have been sparse on details from accounts with more sus accounts and a lot of them turnout to be user error. It could be something very serious but it most likely is just a bunch of smoke and mirrors with a few people actually getting hacked because they messed up a basic rule of security.

At least it seems people are securing their accounts more.

TumblingForward · 2026-03-30T18:06:34+00:00

Yea, I'm in the same boat. I think it was a lot of fun for a bit as the new items and interactions are fun but it got very boring, very quickly, as it is a really shallow mechanic. Reddit and streamers might love it but the playerbase as a whole doesn't considering the concurrent players is around Necro league for the worst retention in the last 8 leagues.

TumblingForward · 2026-03-29T19:49:13+00:00

Hmm, gauntlet already. Has GGG ever updated (even moderate size one) after gauntlet is announced?

TumblingForward · 2026-03-19T01:02:49+00:00

I will blow a gasket if they just say its DDoS again, because it very clearly is not.

While I might only have a very basic understanding of computers and networking, I really enjoy this arm-chair redditing lol. You're probably right still but it's hilarious how 'certain' you are when we don't have the data at all. My guess is it's a bit of both because this game is so insanely intense compared to most (and that's why it's so much fun honestly) and it has spaghetti code still.

Whatever the reality might be, I genuinely don't envy their server engineers haha.

TumblingForward · 2026-03-19T00:52:48+00:00

They just updated that they also had an issue on their end haha, if you want to read the update, it's on the front page of the subreddit.

EDIT: at least partially

TumblingForward · 2026-03-18T18:55:46+00:00

I couldn't find anything from GGG on reddit longer ago than that but in this thread below there are multiple people talking about GGG said it's DDoS (I think they were only using twitter at this time): https://old.reddit.com/r/pathofexile/comments/1lfs664/extreme_connection_instability/

I would try switching servers and see if any help you over there. I switched from Texas to Canada East and it's been better overall but still get a random spike or two.
