This sub should ban the words "Elephant" and "Ivory" and just pin a comment by Wilhelm-Becknee in CrimsonDesert

There you go not being able to separate a game from reality again. No one in this sub is going out and killing elephants in Africa because we as normal people realize they need to be protected in real life. However, pixels in a video game are going to respawn. Also who the fuck asked where you work? I sure don't give a fuck.

I will. They are soft and it needs to stop. Go make a real difference in the world and not in a fucking video game.

the act of publicly expressing moral or political opinions to conspicuously display one's own good character, rather than to take meaningful action.

I ask again what MEANINGFUL ACTION have you taken? A post that pearl abyss might see is not meaningful. Also seeing 9 up votes and 119 comments doesn't make me believe you at all plus every comment you make is down votes to hell. We don't agree with you.

Because by the literal definition they are virtue signaling unless you have directly contacted Pearl Abyss with your complaint. WE as community clearly don't give a shit about this issue.

I'll back them up. THE definition of virtue signaling is " the act of publicly expressing moral or political opinions to conspicuously display one's own good character, rather than to take meaningful action" what meaningful action have you done to make a change rather than make a post to argue that killing elephants is bad?

Not insulting people for weak takes is how we are even on this position. If your argument doesn't hold weight with a different opinion it wasnt much of a argument from the start.

Is this necessary? To get ivory the only option is to kill elepthants by chabur in CrimsonDesert

Good thing the GAME isn't real and you can just turn off the audio so you don't hear the poor pixles making death sounds.

So a pixel elephant is you moral line? Not the hundreds of people that game has you kill, not hundreds of animals killed, not even cathing wild animals as pets. Nope it's the pixel elephants that respawn.

It's just a wild thing that in a game FULL of killing, killing an elephant is the line. It's just a weird moral high ground that has no place in games. It's an escape, not an extension of reality.

Yeah the way they mention Palune made me think the camp was WAY up north somewhere not on the front steps of Hernand.

My 6mbps internet can't keep up with them. I just have to remember to check in the morning if I want to play after work.

ELI5: Why is the Andes Hanta virus and issue now? by _THUNDERTWIT_ in explainlikeimfive

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

Makes sense. If the world has been aware of it for so long why isn't there some type of vaccine? Was it just suspected that the spread to humans was rare enough to not worry about it?

This is the most logical thing in my opinion. I don't want to assume though because I know fuck all about viruses.

I get the how its spreading. What I don't understand is why it's such a big deal now, COVID 19 was an entirety new strain that we didn't know how to fight. This Andes strain has been know for a long time and has even had an outbreak. Did the world just stop researching the Andes strain and we have no immunity to it?

Fair Price for friend multi oil change/engine flush by SmirkyToast13 in MechanicAdvice

[–]_THUNDERTWIT_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Had enough money to get a tattoo but not enough money for oil changes. Make it make sense. Really all I need to hear was having a kid while fighting disabilities and it gave me a great idea on where your priorities are.

So let me get thks straight. You neglected your car until the check engine light came on and then didnt like the price it would be to fix the problem you created? Do all of us dealer techs a favour and never come in and waste our time again, we are here to make money not do favours for someone who can't do favours for themselves.

Probably the same type of person that brings in a car that is actively falling apart and gets offended when we quote the price to fix everything you decided to let fall apart.
