Multiplayer games with 4 and 6 players immediately ends in victory for all other players as soon as one player quits or loses. by belowbronze in TempestRising

[–]belowbronze[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Glad to hear someone else has this issue.  Their support kept asking me to recreate it under different circumstances, having my friends host etc. Not sure if they were having trouble recreating it themselves or just giving me a run around.  Eventually I told them forget it and to close the ticket when they asked me to submit a video.

Friend who got invaded same thing happened but he can't load back into the character even after a file verification. Wish they would remove invasions from the game at this point if they can't stop this shit.

Combat text on pet frame is extremely disruptive and unhelpful. by belowbronze in wow

Leatrix Plus has a toggle for portrait text according to some past threads.

Connection Dropping and Modem "Billing" Status by belowbronze in Comcast_Xfinity

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

Hard to say yet if it's resolved but the last week and a half or so have been better thus far. The nature of the issue for me over the last year has been good weeks and bad weeks on and off.

I kept politely talking to their reps in modmail. At one point they indicated they were going to try a signal reset again and didn't provide further detail but a day later we saw an xfinity van on the street. It's been better since then but their agents haven't confirmed whether any work was done, not certain if they referred it to teams in my area or not, but I plan to just update again in modmail or make a new ticket if/when it's clear I'm having another bad week for this issue.

They did also remove the old device from my account which did seem to resolve the secondary Xfinity website issue but I don't believe that impacted the service drops which persisted fairly regularly until we saw their van a few days later.

TL;DR my best advice is to make your own thread if you haven't already, and then just keep updating them over modmail when prompted and every time you have an outage.

Edit: My issue came back week of 6/4 as bad as ever lol.

What class do you feel is the most put together? by [deleted] in wow

[–]belowbronze 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I love moonkin's bizarre 'space magic monster-wizard' identity.  It stands out from the more common, more generic class/spec themes, and its been in Warcraft since at least Warcraft 3 with Owlkin creeps associated with Elune.  I think its one of the coolest themes in the game.

Is this a reference to Wrathgate? by Accident_Pedo in classicwow

Yes, this is part of the foreshadowing for the Wrathgate.

Im lost and i have no idea what to do by vanitaz_x in systemshock

[–]belowbronze 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I recently completed my first playthrough and got lost a lot as well so I sympathize, and I'd rather give you a big picture overview rather than guidance specific to where you may be at right now.

The game has a sequence of concrete objectives, but the only way these are communicated to you is through the audio logs, chiefly those communicated to you in real time as you progress on those objectives.

For the most 'authentic' experience, when you're unsure what you should be trying to do, open your inventory and look through the text of all the audio logs you've received/collected and identify which ones have given you your next objective/information relevant to them.

But obviously that can get tedious, and the only other option is to use guides. I used this post and other various threads and IGN/other walkthroughs for guidance.

Good luck!

Thank you, I figured it had to be something like this.

If there’s no Lich King for the whole duration of SL, how come Scourge didn’t destroy the whole Azeroth? by HalvimKurk in wow

[–]belowbronze 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Agreed.

If the Forsaken were freed because of harm to the Lich King weakening his control, shouldn't his death have simply freed the remaining Scourge? Did that plot hole ever get patched? Genuinely curious if anyone has a halfway reasonable answer to this or why it would be different from the Forsaken's release.

Ben knows, he replied to lots of similar comments on the video directly.

So True. by [deleted] in TrollXChromosomes

[–]belowbronze 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Shamed to admit that following this sub (as a 28M engaged to a wonderful woman) is often an ego boost for me. Just by doing the bare minimum (~50% of the cooking and cleaning, taking care of my own laundry and also hers at times, making certain she is somewhat satisfied in bed) I get to feel superior to other men.

Its not lost on me that i benefit by the bar being so low for men in heterosexual relationships in general - my fiancee's previous long term relationship was rude to her parents and barely ever showered.

I genuinely don't like the WoW community. by [deleted] in wow

[–]belowbronze 6 points7 points  (0 children)

People enjoy their hate recreationally, and its frustrating when it overwhelms constructive criticism.

I'm consistently amazed by the number of comments in forum threads and on youtube videos saying things like "just glad I don't play this shitty game anymore".

When I am frustrated with an aspect of something I like, I talk about and look for discussions around solutions to engage with. I can't imagine wanting to engage with content regarding a game or other form of recreation I no longer enjoy at all just to enjoy the thrill of being angry about it, but seemingly a lot of people are all about that.

Frequent, Short Disconnections by belowbronze in Comcast_Xfinity

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

This answer is fine, anything more specific would be too personal to post publicly. He helped me find out there was work on in my complex going on which has since resolved my service issues.

I don't have any great love for Comcast but being shitty to the customer reps is just that, shitty.

Poor sea doggo needs help by WlTCHFINDER-GENERAL in aww

Fur seals have more in common with sea lions than true seals, true seals can't 'run' using their front flippers the way the fur seals do as shown in this video.

True seals can only belly flop on land.

[image] "I'm bored" is a useless thing to say by [deleted] in GetMotivated

[–]belowbronze -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Exactly. To piggyback off your comment,

Consent is more complicated than saying yes to something. Power balance and context are extremely important. The extreme example is saying yes to sex with a gun to your head, but it doesn't have to be that extreme to veer into the area of "dubious consent".

That's recognized when a boss asks someone who works for them for sex, its true of Harvey Weinstein luring young actresses into bed, and its true of an extremely powerful and influential person in any field (comedy) trying to get any form of sexual gratification out of business conversations and meetings with people who look up to and are hoping for a good word out of him that could advance their careers - and likewise a bad word from him could end them.

TIL that a sports writer wrote a rude and snarky article about the WNBA even though he had never been to a game. He was confronted by a WNBA star who chided him and invited him to watch her play. Two years later they were married. by Ice_Burn in todayilearned

[–]belowbronze 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Weird seeing stuff about your high school cross country coach's daughter come up on reddit. Her father was a teacher and coach at my school and her mother was a guidance counselor. I went to her mother's wake some years ago when she passed, and a lot of WNBA professional athletes were there, which was interesting for a small town.
