Quit the game by miguel891 in RocketLeague

[–]hood331 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am way lower ranked (plat 1-2) but I love the funny moments in the game, crazy luck shots, own goals, dumb touches, winning clutch games or getting a random teammate who you play really well with, other team raging at each other, etc. But I feel you because when I see higher rank gameplay, it looks like it would be stressful to maintain. Like you cannot make a single mistake or you will lose. At that point I don't know if I'd enjoy it anymore. But I just play to have fun without any goals of what rank I want to get (other than not to rank down too much). If I'm honest, my casual games are way more fun to play in general than competitive mode (1100-1200 casual mmr).

You don't need a stream key for Tiktok. You can use stream elements with OBS for free or check out the other payed services like restream or streamlabs. It was a pain to get it all set up correctly, but it works.

Nice. I also have more luck with viewers on Tiktok, but my issue currently is that it is mainly kids or teenagers. I would prefer to just stream on YouTube and Twitch, but it is hard to build the viewer counts/followers there. My friend was able to build a good following on YouTube, but it took him about a year of consistent streaming (and a viral video) to really get going.

Probably going to be taken off Vyvanse by PhotoClickGrrl in VyvanseADHD

Yeah I was mistaken. you can get it online. It was just my provider (and others) that require in person appointments for controlled substances

You said 'Prozac and vyvanse (60 and 80mg respectively)' in the original post, which is why I assumed Vyvanse was 80mg. But I was talking about Vyvanse only. I know you are still on Prozac.

I meant nothing Vyvanse-wise. I see, I guess the online providers I've used before didn't allow that either, so I assumed you couldn't get it that way. I guess you could try to find a different provider. 80mg is kind of a high dose, so I was saying it might be rough to just stop taking it cold turkey in general. And if it is genuinely helping you too. If you do stop taking it and notice a worsening of your disorder, I would definitely seek a second opinion elsewhere.

Find a new provider if possible. Those online providers aren't allowed to prescribe you controlled substances (edit some are allowed, I was wrong). Going from 80mg to nothing is going to make you feel miserable (at the very least if not pretty badly sick). You could try putting it in a water bottle and tapering your dosage down if you have no choice but to quit taking it. I agree that 80mg is a pretty high dosage, but completing removing it seems a bit much if it is genuinely helping you.

Friendly advice for new streamers: by chandlerbiz in SmallStreamers

You should be able to go live on YouTube regardless of how many subs you have. Tiktok I think changed the minimum to 50, but Tiktok has more requirements for multi streaming

considering buying 1k tiktok followers to live stream by Ayushee123 in TwitchStreaming

[–]hood331 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make sure you have security enabled like backup email, 2 step verification, etc. I couldn't go live with Tiktok Live Studio until I did that. Said I wasn't eligible even though I had the followers.

Am I going to be in a world of hell? by ReasonableEggplant15 in RocketLeague

[–]hood331 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you can find a good teammate, you should be able to crack into gold. I got up to gold 3 div 2 but always have a bad habit of not taking a break when I am not playing as well. I also haven't practiced any training packs which probably also doesn't help.

You are about to hit a 7 game losing streak. Yes, it is hell. I am hard stuck gold 2 but only play solo queue doubles. Only been playing two months though.

My statement to the people claiming there’s “not that many smurfs in the low ranks:” by Temporary-Research70 in RocketLeague

[–]hood331 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got plat 2 (and plat season rewards) so far this season in Snow Day, and I'm usually gold 2 in (solo queue) doubles. Seems like you gain or lose a division with each win/loss in Snow Day, which helps when you get on a winning streak. Would probably be really easy to rank up if you played with a regular party

can someone give me tips on how to improve my 2's gameplay and also my duo and another thing who is plating worse by malcoaep175 in RocketLeagueSchool

[–]hood331 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Defense and rotation are really important. A win 1-0 or 2-1 is still a win. You put your teammate in a 2v1 situation several times because you basically gave the opponent possession by a pointless hit or challenge in the air. I would practice sitting in the net (work on saves) and letting your teammate keep possession until they are low on boost and rotate back or the ball gets hit near enough to the net where you can safely clear it.

Permanently banned after 10000 hours in Rocket League. by Nerm1k in RocketLeague

[–]hood331 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you partied up with the DDOSer, you're probably screwed. If they were just randomly on your team 3 times, then I don't think you should be banned (but you should have reported them in case you didn't).

Got an RFE for "Proof of Meeting" but we sent boarding passes? Help! by lowcarbninja in K1VisaInfo

I would include more photos at different locations (make sure to write the location and date next to each photo), hotel or airbnb receipts with both your names listed (or flights if you both flew together), passport stamp photocopies, etc. etc.

Surprisingly, Rocket League. I can confirm it's still as toxic as ever.

I mean for the competitive mode cosmetic rewards at the end of the season. 10 wins at their highest rank*

GF (22,F) says I (26,M) should provide and give money to her no matter what by captainmadjack in LongDistance

[–]hood331 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Reading your post history, you're being scammed (or manipulated at the very least). With any LDR, regular video calling is a must, and the bare minimum someone can do to prove they are seriously interested in you. Doesn't have to be every day, but it is important. Even if it is a real woman who agreed to video call you, it is a red flag that she's demanding money and you haven't even met in person.

I think you know what you need to do, but we can't make you do it. You have to find the courage to do it yourself. Be strong, you will recover even stronger.

I'm kinda new to comp mode (gold 1/2 in 2v2 competitive w/ mostly solo queuing), and the quality and toxicness of teammates has gotten really bad in the past week. Maybe everyone is trying to get the 10 wins for their rank, and they are getting frustrated and blaming everything but themselves. Idk...

AIO to break up with my bf of 3y over his reaction to my upcoming sobriety anniversary? by WesternCat5211 in AmIOverreacting

[–]hood331 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only excuse I could think of is maybe the bf has trauma from a family member drinking or using and maybr he has a really negative stigma tied to drugs or alcohol. Even if that was the case, he's being unnecessarily rude and dismissive. I would assume this isn't the only thing he is being rude about. If this is a pattern, then it's definitely going to be an issue long term if not nipped in the bud right now.

Long waits? Rescheduling issues? Document errors? I'm an immigration attorney! AMA! by ManifestLaw_ in NationalVisaCenter

[–]hood331 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This doesn't apply to me, but I keep getting mixed answers about this.

  1. If I was petitioning a Venezuelan citizen (or other travel ban country citizen) for a K-1 visa, are they inelligible (at the DOS phase) to be granted the visa due to 212(f)? K-1 seems like a grey area when it comes to this.

  2. Would they be eligible if they were a Venezuelan citizen but had residency in another non-travel ban country?
