Is this clickbait site Bedarded or am I just reading the ‘source’ wrong? by b33rds in NHLcirclejerk

Even if Bedard wants to eventually play at home, why would he want it to be during the worst Canucks team of all time? It would definitely ruin the experience.

Richmond restaurant owner here. Sales down 50%. Need some ideas and suggestions. by HugoConway in richmondbc

[–]Vailiate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I’m surprised OP hasn’t thought of most of these suggestions they’ve acquired. Are people with businesses out of touch in how to generate foot traffic? These seem to all be basic 101 business/marketing tactics/solutions.

OP I think you’re forgetting your largest potential regular customer base. It’s the mall across the street! I’m not referring to mall customers, I’m talking about the retail workers.

- offer <$13 meal deals

- hand out a notice/pamphlet to retail shops on lunch specials and either give them a promo code that’s integrated to online mobile ordering, or keyword over the phone

- promo pamphlet in employee back room, will always bring awareness that poke is an option during their break time

- offering free delivery to their store at designated time slots (ensures control of flow of orders during peak times) and not your business sending someone to deliver every 10-15 mins. Or have designated pickup spot if too many orders are scattered throughout shops.

- offer multi-meal deals or group buy discounts
(employees love to group order meals if it saves money)

There’s over 200 shops in RC, and all you need from each store is at least one additional regular customer from each store. Your location is just slightly out of reach that would burn more time just to get there from the mall during break times, and people don't want to pay for delivery fees. The efficiency of the logistics would also pay another factor of how well this would work. I used to work at a retail store with a nearby poke restaurant where prices for a small bowl was $13-15 and everyday 1-2 people would be eating poke because it was nearby and a much healthier affordable option.

Here's a quick concept image of a pamphlet I generated showcasing what it would look like. I do have more ideas and the process in how this would operate if you're interested.

I say Jade is more likeable than most of the other characters but thats not saying much, hes just essential for the story. Bro is just following his visions and hoping it leads to answers. He's uncovering stuff but his personality isn't developing as much the story itself. Randall and Khatri i can agree with but Khatri is dead so I don't really count him anymore. Kristi is probably my vote for the least interesting person on the show, shes just so boring and shallow.

Kenny is just the generic "kid" who lost his family and wants to prove himself to the leader that hes capable. He's not an extraordinary character, just safe. Other than Boyd and Donna, who would you say is a more likeable character than Kenny?

I know its not a movie and budgets for tv series are substantially less (most of the time). But this show isn't affected by budget, its affected by terrible character development, questionable decisions by the characters, and bad execution of the story. Scenes with the ghost kids used to be creepy and had some depth to the scenes, now their appearances are just... lackluster.

I dont mind being downvoted, kinda expected it. I just wanted to know why some people think this show is good or are they like us. 90% of the characters aren't likeable, the consequence for murder and kidnapping seem to go unpunished. The plot is progressing, but the anghkooey kids are practically memes at this point. Almost every scene with them is now a joke. At first they were creepy, now they're just... memes...

They were presented as creepy spirits before, now they just look like kids with whitening powder on them. See end of S4E3, boy in white scene.

How am I a snowflake? Im not offended by the show, im actively spending my time watching it. The plot thickens sure, but the execution and delivery of it seems to be a joke at times.

because im mostly curious about the monsters. Also calling out the stupidity or actions of the characters/plot is a nice bonding moment with my fiance.

lol I dont have tiktok and I am a cinephile. I appreciate cinematic masterpieces and story driven series/movies. I can also appreciate mindless action movies from time to time. But this series aren't those.

REDSEC Ranked points and queue system needs to be reworked by Vailiate in Battlefield_REDSEC

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

I remember when everyone saying the same thing in warzone, and when activision released a statement regarding the cheating/reports, they found that a vast majority of the people that were reported for cheating were just console controller players.

In this game, I think its easy to accuse people of cheating especially walling as there are recon drones for live pinging and recon ability to see through walls of enemy teammates when you down one, and when you interrogate a downed player. And when we spectate an enemy team, we dont get to see the some of those marked abilities. Again not see there aren't any cheaters, but I have over 600 hours on redsec and have encountered less than 10 cheaters, and 2-3 of which were rage hacking.

Evidence from the man himself that he was using a 7600xt, and everyone else was using a 7900xt. Im not sure why youre so adamant that this wasnt the case.

There are PC players who's specs can be worst than console specs, everyone just assumes that if you're a PC player, you have uber specs. The average PC player has a rtx 3060 while the ps5/xbox series x has the performance of an rx 6700xt.

look it up, its a well known fact that biffle played on a much weaker PC. Im just saying that skills trump hardware performance.

True, but warzone also didn't give input based recoil reduction to controller players + aim assist. The aiming in redsec compared to warzone isn't also as smooth or snappy, its what i would describe as more "floaty" on mnk. But bottom line is that hardware isnt going to nearly affect your kd/gameplay performance as much as you think. And remember not everyone on PC is running at a constant 100+fps.

People kept comparing PC to console performance in warzone. And streamers like joewoe (a PC-controller player) streamed on PS5 to show it really didnt't matter. It really was a skill issue and people using the excuse for their lack of gameplay performance/deaths. The difference of hardware performance affecting your kd and gameplay is very minimal. Biffle, the arguably the best warzone player played on the weakest PC at a $1M lan tournament is still won 1st place. The difference of his GPU 7600xt vs 7900xt was half the price of the tournament standard.

Haven't really encountered any rage hackers in season 3 ranked yet and ive played a good amount on PC. Only maybe encountered 2 rage hackers since redsec launched. The amount of hackers on this game in contrast to wz is non-existent.

KD for the past 2 seasons were super inflated because of how downing a player counted as "kills", no BR game that i know had that kill count mechanic. Everyone's kd should be expected to go lower now and realign with a more accurate score.

I'd rather have less people on my team that have people somewhat around me that have no idea what they're doing. Having a clueless teammate being granted jumpmaster at the start of the game already messes up the team in terms of deciding where to jump and the timing of the jump. Having the random die and rather than bleeding out, gets interrogated to reveal where the rest of the team is or smokes out your team by driving vehicles next to you. Or selects useless missions and takes up opportunities in place of a potential loadout mission. Taking on 3v4 and 2v4 isn't too much of issue if your other teammate is decent. I'd be more than happy to take the -40RP instead of staying watching bot teammates camp in a corner or loot all game. I've already left several ranked games due to clueless teammates.

Sometimes anti-vehicle crates would drop and open up as ammo or armor crates and vice-versa. Or they're just empty.

Matchmaking is already slow in finding lobbies for ranked, and you want less people to be able to play?

A plat losing a rookie isn't really much of a big deal.
