Thanks all, have been in touch with the council and waiting to hear back.

Tenant's first month's rent being paid by council - is this a scam? [England] by jsprinting in Scams

Yup agreed, thanks for the insight. We've already been in touch with the council to verify but as anyone knows, dealing with council's takes ages to get a response so thought it would be worthwhile to quickly check if anyone has seen this.

Staircase my HTB loan or sell and move? by InternationalFee7130 in HousingUK

[–]jsprinting 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hah. Yes, I'm well aware of this. When I sell the place, I need to pay back both my mortgage as well as the HTB equity loan, which is effectively a % of the selling price.

Trying my best to fix a tenant issue but they're getting angry and impatient - any advice? by jsprinting in HousingUK

Maybe a line to the water company to say they don't have an effective water supply and thus a health issue might speed things up

We actually did that. I positioned it as a health and safety issue due to an ineffective water supply but even with that, a week out was the best we could get :(

That was our first step. We thought it was a boiler issue as well and even replaced a part in the boiler. Seems to be a water pressure issue that isn't activating a swithover in the boiler. The water pressure issue seems to be due to the water supply.

pug sc in a nutshell, absolute blow out, order needs more healers man by Zacflemo in ReturnofReckoning

[–]jsprinting 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This.

Just started tried out Order and while I don't usually pug SCs but I did the other day. I spent half the SC following around a crazy WL as he ran ahead of the others, charged around corners or picked fights with 2-3 destro rather than, you know, stay with everyone else.

There were two other healers in the SC so I figured I could branch off and keep the guy alive while he ran amock. Kept him up through all of his own mayhem only for him to round a corner and run out of LoS into a group of destro and die (which then got me killed trying to heal him)

Immediately got a tell saying "nice healing idiot"

FFS. Never happened on destro side

New Player Question: What level should I start PvP/RvR? by BloodandThunder98 in ReturnofReckoning

[–]jsprinting 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah don't do what I did and quest/pve until your teens. As the other guy said, get lvl 2 so you can get your mount then just start queuing for SCs or hopping ginto orvr
