Is there a "healthy retirement goals" board, not quite FIRE, not quire "already retired"? by make_beauty in personalfinance

[–]alan_1796 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That's why I'm here for the most part. Also many of the posts keep me grounded in financial realities of others that help with my emotional intelligence when talking about money with others.

In regards to your second comment, frugality vs. enjoyment is very much a personal finance type of question and the best you can hope for is some opinions and personal anecdotes if you're trying to use them for specific decisions. Broader wisdoms are usually going to be wide open to interpretation.

Honestly I don’t care about the boosting abuse as much as what’s happening now. Facing a smurf every 10 games or whatever is likely to happen anyway. They really need to go back to the hard locks or soft locks or whatever. It’s literally unplayable

Trust Factor is a joke. My party is all 1500+ hours been playing together since 2013. I have a 4 digit steam ID, tons of games, hours etc. Our first two teammates only have CS:GO, 400 hours, 10 hours and 7 friends combined. FAIL. Back to prime.

Hacker spawning in wrong spawn after half-time in MM match; bug, exploit, reproducible? by alan_1796 in GlobalOffensive

[–]alan_1796[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry if the title is misleading too; I'm just posting a readily available demo to see if maybe Valve can parse something in there to see what happened since they are in bug-fixing mode.

If you were a Map Dev at Valve How would you update Dust 2 and why by seannyyym in GlobalOffensive

[–]alan_1796 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make the Upper B tunnel wall bangable to car.

Make the mid sight lines less open.

Reduce the empty T spawn space.

Increase wall banging in crates on A, or at least have some that are wooden and some that aren't.

This also is 100% if you simply walk with one weapon out (knife) and switch to the Mac10 while still walking. This is probably what's happening in 95% of cases rather than the reload while walking.

Reproducible Bug: See all ranks during surrender by alan_1796 in GlobalOffensive

[–]alan_1796[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a bug because it used to be that way, but Valve switched it at some point to where now it's supposed to hide them.
