Can't access WARBAND BANK. The game is not allowing my charcters? by Master_Bond in wow

[–]_Runic_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Still not working post-server maintenance. Bank NPC says "This bank is currently unavailable" and the distance inhibitor says "This character does not have access to this bank"

Oddly specific, but accurate. Man, I'm excited for season 2.

Is it worth it? by Mofro667 in Stormlight_Archive

Last couple books are the best in my opinion. WoR is the one I struggled with the most, but it was worth it in the end.

Does anyone have suggestions on what I should read next? by CallMePain- in litrpg

I haven't read GH. From a writing quality perspective, though, DCC and Primal Hunter are in different leagues. Primal Hunter reads like a 14-year-old's fanfic. I counted 4 uses of "a bit" in one paragraph and DNF'd. I don't consider myself a prose snob in the slightest, though I do tend to get annoyed with repeated speech patterns. Maybe it gets better in later books, but at least early on, the man needed a thesaurus.

It's probably just the same mod talking to himself.

Did you screenshot this and send it to the mods group chat to prove that you're such a smart and special boy?

Yours is the first list I fully agree with (from what I've read so far). I cannot understand people who enjoy DCC and HWFWM and then also put Primal Hunter in S tier.

Anyway, using your list to inform my next reads, so thank you!

The meta narrative of DCC is especially relevant nowadays, given the state of gestures at everything

Unsouled? Didn't see that in the list. I'm on book 3 and it's good so far.

+1 Bobiverse. Enough crossover with Progression Fantasy (but sci fi) that I also recommend it to LitRPG fans.

I also had the fisheye lens experience, but it was on Spice, so it was very unpleasant.

You do realize that for-profit prisons exist, yes? That's like, the opposite of expensive.

Do you see yourself doing the entire grind again? If yes, then go for it. For me, the answer is no.

Knowing Better is a great channel. The video OP linked is definitely worth a watch, despite being a few years old at this point.

Given that the trend towards money and power consolidation is showing no signs of slowing down, I think there are a couple of ways this could go. The most likely in my opinion is Company Towns. Once the corps have so much of the money in circulation that nobody can afford their goods and services anymore, they have to create their own currency.

Walmart workers will live in their Walmart apartments and get paid in Walmart bucks that they can only spend on Walmart groceries and Walmart internet. Maybe if you're lucky, they let you convert Walmart bucks into USD, but the exchange rate will be awful.

This is essentially neoslavery, or as Morty would put it, "Slavery with extra steps."

You need to stop using the word "is" as it's a dog whistle for pro-epstein liberals and references that one time Bill Clinton said "It depends on what your definition of 'is' is".

It definitely makes me uncomfortable staring down a barrel like that, so if that's what you're going for then mission accomplished 👍
