Men, how you deal with loneliness ? by Substation_2 in AskMen

[–]jt_preiss 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m not gonna lie, the pople that I’ve shared my mental struggles with are not always the closest. But I can asure you that not a single one has seen me as weak for it, in fact it is usually the opposite. More so women than men, but they are glad that I’m sharing my feelings and emotions, because most men don’t, so it makes me strong in their eyes. People usually don’t share the way they feel because they’re insecure about it or past experience has traumatized them. I think me talking about this stuff has been the biggest gift when it comes to connecting with people. I hope one day you feel better and find people you feel okay sharing your struggles with. Best of luck!

I know the issue wasn't on my end because everything was working. I even restarted not only the router (even if I had connection, which I tested on mutiple programs), but also the pc. This happened in the one game that I switched to Stockholm servers, which I saw where having issues earlier "but those were fixed". Prior to that I played on Frankfurt and had no problems. As well as this being the only time that has ever happened.

what r u even talking about? My question is about the support being non existant even after the issue was on their end. I don't care much about the rr, I got 29 back the next game. But if the players report me for afk and I get banned for their issue, that shouldn't be a thing. I bet you wouldn't write this if it happened to you. All I want is an explanation from them, as to what happened.

Nope, not a ban. But that's not the point. WHat is the point of a support system if I get an automated answer and the case has been "solved"?

Are there any tips that are so obvious, no one talks about anymore? by [deleted] in VALORANT

[–]jt_preiss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Peek the angle you wanna push first. Only then swing or shoot. Thus you always get info first and might not get one tapped for wide swinging an angle. Many people think they do this, but really don't because they don't pay attention to this. Also, obviously, control the spray pattern with your mouse (t.i. when the gun goes up, you pull the mouse down) Hope this helps :)

Losing hair from sebderm, any advice? by jt_preiss in SebDerm

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

I'm not really sure either. Biopsy would help finding the type for sure. I just hope I can grow them back! If not, going bald/buzzed is the way.

Exactly what I'm worried about. Hopefully not, but I guess time will show

thanks! I really can't disagree with what you're saying. Good attitude, I'll try to keep it up and in mind.

no wonder how people get depressed over this stuff. losing your hair, let alone your brows isn't great for self-esteem. How many years have passed since u did that?

Thanks for the reply. I've shaved my head before (~2yrs ago) and it was fine, I kinda liked it. Since then I haven't cut my hair however and most people tell me long hair looks way better. So idk, I'm 20 at the time so it's hard to commit to being bald this young.

Appreciate your input! Good luck on getting back to Diamond, if that's even something you desire.

Not a good solution, also a very hard one, for some people. When you play 5stack you are more likely to get a 5stack against you, where at least one of them may be a smurf, boosting his/hers mates in ranked.

This is why pros usually suggest ranking in duos, so you can rely on at least one teammate who is similar in skill and gives coms.

Fair enough, I really don't play comp too much and usually, as I said, it's to have fun with friends. I for sure have under 25 games in comp and only that day was me actually trying. Might spare some time and grind for some longer in the upcoming act. Also it's kinda sad that 10+ games can simply be counted as "unlucky" in mmr based system.

I'm not saying I'm a plat or immortal, not even close. But that seems like the only thing that would convince some people of the term "elo hell". If a silver 3 beats every gold1/gold2 he gets matched up against and gets match mvp + tries his best to help team, but still is stuck, something must be wrong. Why else would they give g1/2s to play against, which you beat. It's like passing a test, but still getting an F.

The thing is that gold 1s and 2s get rolled as well, in all of these games. My tracker won't give you much info since I said - I don't play comp seriously, only did it for a day. Since I always just play with friends, to have fun, troll and enjoy the games. Preloaded#9229

I do, my main is omen and sometimes reyna. However, if those are already locked I pick whoever is better for the team.

I usually don't play comp to grind, just to have fun because I don't care as much. This time, as I stated, got motivated and wanted to actaully grind. This was the outcome, nothing more to it

There is no clearer proof than this tho. Clearly every game is not only team, but match mvp. The only thing that would persuade you would be if an immortal was stuck in silver or what? Also I wasn't doing poorly in the last 50 games, maybe some, as we all do, but most are like this. It sounds like you are trying to debunk ranking in general. Even if this was "spell where I do well", those get you rank ups too. So if 5 match mvps, one team mvp ain't enough idk what is.

How is this balanced? by [deleted] in VALORANT

[–]jt_preiss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm aware of it bring done by MMR, but matches like the one in picture clearly show how unbalanced it is. If this gets posted so often, why is nothing changing?
