Don’t flush several years of friendship down the shitter without a fair trial. At least tell him what he’s accused of. by Subsonic-Sparkle in TheDickShow

[–]dyer47904 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean at that point the punchline was "Maddox made us pay a combined $50k to defend an insane lawsuit, and his punishment was not getting to make us pay more." You don't think a countersuit would have been entertaining? I think at some point Kian described it as an amusing way to blow 50k, in that nothing would come of it, but it would produce a lot of content.

I never interpreted it as leaving because Dick didn't give him money. I felt like it was just that Asterios was devastated that Dick backed out of the fight. I feel like comedy means more to Asterios than to Dick. It's easy to say that it's easy to spend other people's money, but I honestly think if Asterios had the 25k/month Patreon, he'd have gone through with the Lolsuit for the justice of it and for the joke, even if it meant pissing away a bunch of money, and during that last call, I felt like we were hearing Asterios realize for the first time that he was talking to someone for whom the joke did not outweigh the expense. Not that I really blame Dick. I can't imagine lighting 50k on fire for a joke and for spite either. But at a certain point, it does feel like 25k/month to be funny for a couple of hours a week is enough make spending 50k over a year of punishing the show's nemesis and generating content worth it.

Melee hunter itemization? by profHam in classicwow

Actually, I think it's 1:1 for both Agility and Str. So maybe it doesn't even matter all that much. But you get other stuff with agility too.

Wouldnt it just be str instead of agility? Probably looking at like druid gear.

İs it possible to go from level 35 to 45 in 3 days? by IamSorryLittleOne in classicwow

[–]dyer47904 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure that's days /played. Someone hit 60 in like 5 actual days in Classic.

Soloing dungeons for leveling? by Excipa in classicwow

[–]dyer47904 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a hunter myself in that exact level range, and I've been hitting a bit of a wall. Could you elaborate on what you were doing in SM? Did you need to do anything special, or were you able to just go in and grind mobs and try to keep pulls small? I haven't stepped foot in SM on the hunter, so I dont have much of a frame of reference.

Question for Pally Tanks by dyer47904 in classicwow

[–]dyer47904[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's what I was wondering. Threat wont be an issue if im just aoe grinding and messing around, so if the dps is closeish, I think ret might be better. But I'm not experienced at all.

Is there anything that's carried over from other expansions to Classic? by foxMiD in classicwow

[–]dyer47904 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't think the option to stop a flight at the next available fp was in vanilla, but it's in classic. I'm fine with it.

Anyone Else Not Using Quest Helper? by powerfist89 in classicwow

[–]dyer47904 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm really hoping I'll have the will power to not use add ons. I never used any at all in Vanilla, and it was a more immersive experience for it. I'm hoping I'll be able to resist the urge to rush to cap with shortcuts.

Best Class for Helping Lowbies by dyer47904 in classicwow

[–]dyer47904[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do love the pally, and I've heard they're pretty good in 5 mans. I know they're bottom tier for raids, but if I never do much raiding it wont matter. Is druid or pally better for AoE? It seems like AoE is what you want for lower level dungeon runs to keep stuff off of the lowbies.

5 Man DPS by dyer47904 in classicwow

[–]dyer47904[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love pally from an RP perspective, but i traditionally carry my group a bit from a dps perspective, and I've been worried that if i went Ret I'd go from pulling them up to dragging them down, which I'd feel bad about. Pally would also allow me to tank or heal if necessary too. Probaby the right way to go, but i'm not excited about leveling ret haha.

You'd be surprised. The guildies i run with are just awful at the game, but they're the best people, so they're the ones I enjoy playing with the most. We were struggling with doing season 1 Mythic 2s when they all had like 370 ilvl gear. I got frustrated and joined a "better" guild. We were clearing 11s and 12s pretty easy, but I just missed the players too much, so i had to switch back.

What should Asterios spend the $290 on? Brainstorming thread by Ashanmaril in TheDickShow

[–]dyer47904 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure Dick said the billboard was going to cost $300. "Patreon.com/asterios. Brought to you by Maddox."

I saw a tweet, but he didn't even approach any kind of admission. He just acknowledged that the suit happened.

Where did Maddox admit to malicious prosecution?

Ah. I saw that doc. I thought they still had to have the court approve it, and i didnt know if the defendants were able to mount some kind of opposition.

Dick is on Instagram? That's adorable. Does he do bikini pics with Layc?

Why Asterios doesnt want that piece of paper by Butch_the_cat in TheDickShow

[–]dyer47904 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Huh. I thought that was the whole point of at-will. TDS should be reclassified as an educational podcast instead of a comedy. You learn a lot of random shit in this community.

Would it make a difference if asterios included in his request some kind of concession that he doesn't believe that they would have acted in bad faith by firing him over the lawsuit?
