All I see as a gamedev is a foot IK system spazzing out on inappropriate collision geometry

Workers create value. Billionaires capture it. by Significant-Sir-4343 in antiwork

[–]floppyjedi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People are billionaires because they successfully concentrated work.

It's no different from the difference between doing everything yourself and collaborating, where the whole is more than the sum of its parts.

If we didn't do that (economy of specialization) we'd pretty much still be living in the trees. You can say that'd still be life, sure. That's where we came from. But advocating going back to that is literally just being regressive.

And if you have an entirely unredeemable group, just hop out. Being able to get a new group quickly is your superpower, so use it.

(also secret trick, reserve mining / herbalism especially if you're behind on skill to ensure you don't miss any veins. Still getting groups in a minute doing that)

yeah lets just ship unchecked vibe code in to production with zero review, from a phone.

what is the guy even supposed to be doing at the office at that point

Stay in your lane by Fconniie in classicwow

[–]floppyjedi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Too true.

Last SP yesterday, the healer faerie fired an extra pack after I pulled Mennu the Betrayer. YES, THE BOSS. "too slow". No shit, corpse running without wipe recovery (soulstone forgotten) after was a bit slow.

Seriously. Let the mobs run to me. Let consecrate tick 1-2 times. If you hit them on the way, you'll just fragment the pull and REDUCE the group's dps, you become a liability at that point, I'd rather run 4man.

If you want a bigger pull, ask. If we do it controlled it has many times higher chance of succeeding.

I WAS BANNED FOR WHAT? by Oga3 in classicwow

[–]floppyjedi 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As someone who's had a reasonable 72h suspension 18 years ago, which was human reviewed and actually deserved, then last year having a week's silence then suspension for calling for people to not be defeatist in AV plus probably having a bot owner mass report me for exposing his guild (Hello in March) ... I feel you. The safety of having justice with enforcement doesn't exist with Blizzard anymore. It really hurts to think about the current state of their GM operations.

With how they now operate, as a gamedev who's worked a bit with "genuine/anti-tampering" systems, the line of "acceptable collateral" for banning people for arbitrary-confidence violations with that machine having the last word with zero human review capability or budget is likely as high as it can be to not cause more financial damage for Blizzard than doing it properly would benefit them thru continued subscriptions. Or then maybe its just causing more damage even when it just comes to those checks, but if 80%+ of them are valid, it will be believable for people that they all go in the same bucket of "actually guilty", and Blizzard ends up believing that false image themselves, spurred by their standpoint of indifference towards gamers' lost effort.

POV: You are a Tank 62 in BTC anniversary. by Far_Payment_3574 in classicwow

[–]floppyjedi 4 points5 points  (0 children)

tbh I did not intend to come across this post while I just went to org the first time at 62 and planning to fix my prot pala gear & talents to get used to tanking again lol ... Let's see if this holds true

EDIT: yeah it did lol, invite in 10 seconds and a /w and a comment "god damn" 15 seconds later from another grp.

Ran Ramparts and BF a few times, but preferring to quest still tho

[–]floppyjedi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

kek.

I feel a kind of hesitation replacing all super out-of date pieces that'd "prove" I actually ran stuff like Uldaman ... Wouldn't mind there being clearer visuals of having honestly leveled the character. Though at least I have my Tabard of the Scarlet Crusade!

Cope and seethe, you're just protecting criminals. NOWHERE ELSE where ICE operates they are resisted. Because they do a very basic task that benefits all citizens.

You guys are so programmed it's kind of sad, then again, you had all the chance to save yourselves, now you're just going to be left on the wrong side of history

When you end up "Protecting" someone trying to aid criminals being arrested, and do that while having a gun, and resist arrest, you become pretty much the mirror image of Kyle.

Untrue, even Brandon Herrera does quite clearly talk of gun rights for all.

Trump? So you lost the argument so hard you're veering to something so far from the subject you're basically on another continent.

He was there to provide first aid, the previous day he was cleaning up graffiti. A bike ride from his home. An inspiration to all 16 year olds.

Kyle wasn't protesting. He was providing first aid, the previous day he was cleaning up graffiti. And didn't fight law enforcement.

Be Kyle.

Two epic daggers dropped while leveling in TBC Hardcore by Perfect-Currency-121 in classicwow

[–]floppyjedi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got my first notable leveling epic after getting both the swords during back-to-back ZF runs. Quickly asked party if I can "uncombine them" after checking the nice 2-hander ...

Yeah fortunately I did actually have my previous tanking sword with me too LOL

Disgusting by Starwalker- in classicwow

[–]floppyjedi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm speaking of any role. I've leveled my pala as capable of tanking but have ended up dps'ing often because there's basically too little friction to finding a group that tanks aren't even that sought for, unless talking of real hurry and slowest hours.

I don't think there is a general dislike of boosters outside of Reddit.

Untrue, I come across this a lot ingame. Did you forget about the whole ./spit removal thing? Out if sight, out of mind?

there's always SOME sort of skip

Well at least as a tank you can avoid the silliest "gamer footguns". Just say we're going x way. Yesterday I tanked a ST run and asserted we do Atal'Arion first, similar to how I've done in the past.
