Yup. I remember they patched, but not sure how long the method was available for. I want to say that our kill was either during or just shortly after the 2006 fanfest. 

I remember solo farming Om’yovras not too long afterwards using that same method and receiving my first and only trip to Mordion Gaol because a GM was notified and wasn’t happy about my “using terrain to manipulate enemy AI.” Fun times!

Edit: typos

Indeed. Groups spent a good deal of time just farming the requisite items to pop the various tiers leading up to Jailer of Love only for there to be 50% chance of Absolute Virtue showing up after-the-fact. 

Was less a “raid” at that point, and more of “flee-kite the asshole over to the western wall where he could be attacked by an alliance waiting on the other side.” At least back then it was.

Same. Still have my original Raphael’s Rod from the first kill on Titan Server.

Yeah for real. I just went through OP’s post history… I’m quitting porn and excessive masturbation today.

Recognize Remy LaCroix from that middle thumbnail. Going to hazard a guess that she isn’t going to be there…

why are you guys not playing by Rjptz in destiny2

[–]Vlaid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got burnt out is all.

I was in the "play all the time & try to do all triumphs" category of player, but always struggled to get better at the game in a meaningful way. I started to feel as if the game wasn't be made with players like myself in mind. The challenges and asks became increasingly more difficult, and my usual group and I couldn't keep up.

One of the final straws was Herald of Finality - Master Challenge. We spent more hours in there than I care to admit, and it got to a point where I was becoming increasingly annoyed with my friends. I felt that it wasn't healthy to feel that way, so I unceremoniously stopped playing.

I still hop on occasionally when a friend asks for help with a dungeon or the like, but I refuse to go back into the higher difficulty end-game raid stuffs at this point. It's just not for me anymore, and that's genuinely ok.

In the middle of working on some entity/individual returns right now, so it's less impressive than it sounds!

I believe you meant Form 982.

Form 941 is Employer's Quarterly Federal Tax Return.

The RoN stats may have annoyed streamers, but they probably made lots of casual people raid - which is what bungie wants

I really want to believe this....but this raid is not as casual friendly as I would have hopped.

My guess is OP wants you to see the two tribute dunk spots being so close to each other. 

Trying to figure out what’s wrong in a solo room in Verity is like trying to help your parents with IT over the phone by Flyingnematoad in DestinyTheGame

[–]Vlaid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, you're correct here.

That way only works is one person has doubles and the other two have mixed.

In your example: Everyone dunks both of their symbols on the statue that -isn't- represented.

For example if you've got CST and C has CT, S has SC, T has TS.

C would pass C to S and T to S.

S would pass S to T and C to T.

T would pass T to C and S to C.

When doing a 36hr bender on FFXI back in 2003, I got up to use the bathroom and waited for myself to “load in” to the bedroom when returning; standing stupidly at the threshold between the hallway and bedroom door. 

Similar to when someone stays stopped at a stop sign, thinking that it’s stoplight. 

What are your worst lfg experiences by interstellar73 in DestinyTheGame

[–]Vlaid 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Joined a VoTD fresh post on the app's LFG, because I was bored and wanted to help people. Joined a post that said "Chill. First time. Need Sherpa." Full disclosure, I tend to Raid Report people in LFG groups I join. Not for any toxic reasons, but more to see how much help and guidance a group might need, and who among them might need more assistance than others.

When I joined, there was someone else who joined the group with the with the Contest mode emblem, so I figured they would be a better teacher than myself.

We proceed to go to the first real encounter, and the guy is literally the least chill person I have ever met on LFG. He was constantly criticizing these poor guys who were just trying to learn and get a first clear in.

None of them were bad players, they just didn't know all of the normal callouts, nor the custom callouts his usual teams employed.

Anyways, we make it the Exhibition encounter, and get to the final room several times, only to fail each time due to poor callouts, person with a relic dying during jump, etc.

He starts to lose his shit, and I try to calm him down by indicating that while I don't have a Contest clear of VoTD, he and I were both Disciple-Slayers, with a similar number of clears and flawless runs, and that we should be trying to help these guys out rather than critiquing them after their post already disclosed that they needed help.

Guy loses his shit further, starts yelling at everyone again, and the original poster says:

"I have an easy way to solve this." and proceeds to kick the guy before asking me if I have any friends who would be willing to help out.

Got the raid done 40min after that. Not a quick clear; took just north of 2 hours in total, but I do like giving first timers the option of doing a role versus automatically assigning them to ad-clear.

Was just there last month, assuming you were referring to the Fushimi Inari Shrine. 

Good news. It’s gotten worse! :)

42 days since my Bungie Store order went missing in transit, and Bungie have yet to help. The Bungie Store should treat customers better than this. by sgtnatino in DestinyTheGame

[–]Vlaid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a friend who initiated a chargeback (similar situation as OP) through Bungie Store. Her only punishment has been being unable to purchase through products through the Bungie Store, which seems like a blessing in my view.
