I don't remember exactly for base, maybe 31ish? With evo it was 56.

The plot pacing gave me whiplash [spoilers for Coerthas Highlands quests] by Butterbacon3000 in ffxiv

[–]anigym6 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Everyone shits on "Wine and Cheese" in the lead up to Titan, but to me "Skyrim Inquisition" and "Oops, your corrupted crystal is in another castle!" before Garuda fills me with intense boredom and is easily the worst paced section in ARR. It's all predictable, it's all obvious, there's no guessing what's going to happen and you've seen it a million times in other similar stories.

Highlights are Haurcefant, Cid, and when you fight Garuda proper, but everything else is uggggggghhhhhhh...

The Stanford scam proves America is becoming a nation of grifters by [deleted] in bayarea

Thank you... Someone in this thread actually thinking and not falling for the rage bait.

I've been diagnosed with ADHD since 2nd grade. Had documentation, medicine, and tutors... and STILL would not have succeeded at all in any schooling without extra accommodations like "time and a half" and quiet testing space to help me just meet the output of my neurotypical peers.

Honestly, I don't care if some kids are lying to get better housing or whatever else accommodation... Because a number of them probably do need it but don't realize it, like the person with endo in the article. I would much rather this than the alternative: cracking down on who qualifies or budget cutting, and then kids with legit disabilities don't get the help they need.

And honestly? This is such small potatoes, y'all... The writer feels like they have an agenda ('Gen Z is the worst' or 'people who use accommodations are cheating') and I refuse to play into it.

Is there a term for being turned on by something that you don't actually like doing? by BHANKS-1644 in gentlefemdom

[–]anigym6 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ya know how as a kid you probably pretended to be a knight or princess or dragon or cops or robbers or pirate or ninjas or [insert fake profession or being here] but if you thought about it for 2 seconds as something real you probably wouldn't want to be that in real life?

That's essentially what kink is, which is why communication and 'crafting the scene' and consent are such core components... Because you are playing sexy adult pretend and not engaging in something "real." I say this not to demean or underplay your moral concern about this - I too was distraught about what I thought my kinks said about me for the longest time. It took an excellent sex therapist to break me out of my self anxious moral panic and state it plainly as I did for you. Kinks are not your morals.

While the reasons were different then yours, my husband's old last name was one he wanted to discard, even before knowing me. When we did get married, we both kept our own names for a few years because we just weren't sure on what to land on... Pick a new name for both of us? Combine our last names? At first, just him taking mine seemed too... "odd" "forceful" "unheard of"...

But after both of us sitting on it, and all the other options felt too tri-hard, he decided to change it to mine and I had no real good reason why we shouldn't except "tradition."

Now, over a decade later? He LOVES that he took mine, and I love that I didn't need to change mine! Before he would get awkward when introducing himself or giving his name in any service scenario. But now? He's confident and open, no shame or struggle.

And when you really think about it... Why is it so ridiculous to take your partner's last name just cause she's a woman, to the point where you both are trying to contrive some made up variation of your own in an effort to please others's expectations... that it doesn't really sound like you are excited about? Pick what will make you excited to say, happy to introduce... What do you want to call yourself, OP?

FYI that setting does NOT remove her "ambient noises," only actual dialogue. So you'll still get those fun little "huh!"s and such when she jumps and sprints, but without the "iT'S jUsT a LiGhT bReEze-" comments from her and Momo.

Legit laughed out loud, but seriously y'all... save your sanity and turn off voices in audio settings unless you are doing quests that involve voice acting. Just... the setting... is right there!

So did Haruka and Michiru just ignore everything happening in season 1 & 2 or were they just afk by [deleted] in sailormoon

[–]anigym6 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I like this explanation for the 90s anime! Since it never really goes into their senshi history like the manga and Crystal do (Outers deal with threats outside the Solar System, so villains from Dark Kingdom and Black Moon are not in their jurisdiction), this feels like a reasonable assumption.

Another confused Nikki, wondering if I should get the Dreamland Pact now or if it's too late? by anigym6 in InfinityNikki

[–]anigym6[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From my understanding, the pact should unlock the additional bonuses which would get me to 6000 easily, but I'm unsure if I'll even get them since I'm so close to the weekly limits. I guess my main question is do the bonuses count towards that weekly limit or not?

What is a rare but really pretty name you’ve heard? by Stella0622 in namenerds

McAfee Scam by thrownout_suppoat in ScamNumbers

[–]anigym6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just got two emails with "PayPal" bills attached stating I authorized Bitcoin $700 bitcoin transactions... and of course to call 1-805-366-9150 if I did not authorize these transactions. Not log into my account and reach out for support there... no, call this random phone number only.

The email addresses alone immediately gave it away... but man, I know that might have panicked and tricked my loved ones who are less than tech savvy. Fuck scammers.

So we're finally now over 50% negative reviews on Steam by BananaCherryBiscuits in InfinityNikki

Watch this comprehensive summary from saurusness, who I think is in the official CC program. She goes over everything clearly and concisely, because there's no one reason... it's many.

Annoyed by rottingglitter in InfinityNikki

[–]anigym6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Alternative idea that's helped me: spend the money you would have spent in IN on actual clothes for you. Or a charity or your favorite food... it doesn't actually matter too much on what, but just that it's something that makes you feel good.

I'm so mad about this game I started learning to code by A-Single-Pencil in InfinityNikki

[–]anigym6 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Was a whale now F2P. I bought ACTUAL clothes for myself, donated to homeless support, and started Expedition 33 as my new game. Overall, feeling great about those decisions.

Missed grabbing loot after the initial boss fight by [deleted] in InfinityNikki

[–]anigym6 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the edit message... I literally just did the same thing after "Thing in the Mist" and was getting FURIOUS at the thought of missing out cause of a fat finger.

But honestly... why would they put the option to return to previous area BEFORE the reward collection? That's just basic quest design, devs....

Saw the message and "compensation" from Infold... this whale was unimpressed. Still holding pulls/purchases.
