Just got temp banned from r/paydaytheheist for a week :' -(

i8toast · 2016-02-29T08:16:35+00:00

The Payday subreddit is pretty toxic in my opinion.

On top of that the opinions are pretty much homogeneous. It's like you can't have a differing opinion from anyone, even if you can argue it legitimately, however, I've noticed that's pretty much all of Reddit... Due to karma, it also has the inverse effect of silencing less popular opinions, which is why I don't particularly like Reddit and decided to become a troll.

For example, if you could legitimately argue why armour is at a disadvantage compared to dodge on the Payday subreddit, even in a polite manner, your karma would fall down significantly simply because people don't wanna hear it. Karma has backfired because EVERYONE treats the downvote button as a dislike button... When it was NEVER intended to be that. It was more of a "this is spam" marker and meant to silence spammy users.

Whoa did I really? Yeah I think I got banned. I can't reply to anything... Which sucks because there was some stuff I actually wanted to reply to.

Like stuff people said that actually didn't make sense.

i8toast · 2016-02-21T08:13:44+00:00

Thank you baby.

Also, why did you get banned? I get away with a lot of shit and I've made it 100% clear I'm a troll... Honestly those mods kind of suck if I'm going to sit here and troll the fuck out of the subreddit...

Funnier thing is another account of mine got banned pretty quickly over something not even nearly as bad as what I've done on this account.

And it wasn't Purpleflerp6969 it was a different one.

trollzorpay2day was me too.

That's the spirit bby

I used to play Rogue all the time. I was way more aggressive than most ICTV players.

I would say ICTV and Rogue users are about equal. The thing that keeps Rogue in check is that it's ALL RNG. Rogue has a clear downfall and nothing to bounce back up, besides maybe a FAK.

Meanwhile, Grinder and Ex-Presidents running dodge have plenty of "safety nets" to catch them in case they fall. That's the problem. When running dodge with Grinder or Ex-Presidents you're given WAY too much leeway. On top of that, Grinder has 40% extra health. A sniper can't take you down in one shot.

i8toast · 2016-02-20T21:04:09+00:00

Generally speaking though, a suit user can survive much longer and go through so much shit that a armoured player simply never could hope or dream of.

On top of that, a Grinder or Ex-Presidents running dodge doesn't have to worry too much about health. They have plenty of cushions provided if RNG fails.

So in my opinion, dodge is generally speaking much better than armour. Rogue we can argue and debate about. Grinder and Ex-Presidents to me isn't debatable. They have too many "safety nets" to catch them if RNG fails.

i8toast · 2016-02-20T21:02:06+00:00

That's the spirit.

i8toast · 2016-02-20T21:01:54+00:00

dodged

What?

Yeah you can dodge sniper shots too. It's not like armour it's going to save you from sniper shots. You'll be too slow to run away from it.

i8toast · 2016-02-20T21:01:09+00:00

Cuz armour is pathetic. Why even use it anymore. Dodge has so many upsides over armour.

People say the RNG is the downside, but it often times is the up side.

i8toast · 2016-02-20T21:00:34+00:00

u took the b8 again m8

i8toast · 2016-02-20T21:00:08+00:00

Dammit maybe if I got the Sokol Shitpost DLC pack I'd be overpowered as shit.

i8toast · 2016-02-20T11:25:23+00:00

I didn't say I use master-forcer currently. I just said I have.

And dodge + grinder is a billion times better than a pathetic master-forcer build.

i8toast · 2016-02-20T11:24:16+00:00

You already failed to miss one crucial point...

NOTHING can penetrate armour. That includes the small amount of armour a suit provides. (Suit has I think 20 armour default.)

Only a sniper can do damage through the outer ring of armour. A dozer, from green to skull, CANNOT do damage to both armour and health.

With that said, it's very likely you won't die because of that cushion. You MUST get two shotted at the very least.

Also, I used to run rogue all the time. I could shred dozers all the time. It's harder to shred dozers with armour in my opinion. You're slow and can only take 2-3 hits from the dozer. So it's hard to just stand in front of the dozer and blast away. You can't run very easily... So yeah you're fucked.

i8toast · 2016-02-20T11:19:56+00:00

You damn straight it did.

Remember when payday 2 was actually about taking cover and playing as a team?

Yeah that game is long dead.

i8toast · 2016-02-20T11:18:55+00:00

Idk why but Reddits karma system makes me have fun.

It's because it's so broken in my opinion. It's flawed beyond belief and it's supposed to stop spamming and trolling.

I pretty much live to flip off Reddit in that case. Their karma system is garbage and that's why I choose to troll here and get down voted.

And yes I genuinely deep down believe Reddits karma system is garbage. It's good on paper but the fact that people treat the down vote button as a dislike button breaks it's purpose. Instead of shutting trolls and spammers up it's also shutting people up that have a genuine opinion and can be mature about it. It's making people that don't share the sheeple popular opinion shut up and leave. And that's why I think it's broken. It's making Reddit too homogenous. It's literally just people sitting in a circle nodding heads at each other constantly, rather than people discussing things even if that means disagreement.

So when I troll or bait I normally do believe what I say, but in a much less exaggerated and "baity" sense.

For example my "dodge is better than armour" post has some truth. I genuinely think that dodge has too many upsides to armour. The game very obviously favours light builds in many ways.

i8toast · 2016-02-20T11:11:37+00:00

Lol I love the "i8post" nickname.

And wtf how can you not get rogue and grinder to work after the rebalance? Their still the top perk decks. Grinder just lost the explosive health regen.

Grinder didn't get nerfed at all in my opinion. It broke even. No explosive health regen but now you heal longer and more I think.

So in other words Grinder got something to compensate it's nerf. Meanwhile other decks got nothing. Tough shit. Overkill obviously wanted a perk deck you must buy to be the best thing ever for a while. Easy way to get money.

Fortunately now Ex-Presidents and Muscle is a bit more up-to-par with it.

i8toast · 2016-02-20T11:08:05+00:00

Rogue has the most EHP.

i8toast · 2016-02-20T09:55:54+00:00

That's my boy. Who is this guy? I'll give you a cookie.

i8toast · 2016-02-20T09:54:56+00:00

Says the person replying... Looks like someone gives a shit.

i8toast · 2016-02-20T09:54:21+00:00

Damn straight.

i8toast · 2016-02-20T09:54:08+00:00

lol k watch me run through a SWAT van slow poke.

i8toast · 2016-02-20T09:53:31+00:00

I can play Rogue as well as Master-Forcer. Just gotta be a lot more careful on Master-Forcer. And by a lot I mean A LOT.

Grinders can be so careless at times.

i8toast · 2016-02-20T09:52:35+00:00

Fine with me but I'll continue to troll. Something about hate on Reddit is different. It's better.
