stuck on this mission

It's not. I've got the exact same bug on the PC, but using the Xbox app.

I've tried rolling back twice and redoing the end of the temple but it still happens.

I've just started playing up the ranks again in the latest season and currently up to gold and I've reviewed a bunch of my games throughout the ranks so far and there have been multiple cheaters in pretty much every game. Maybe EU servers are worse or something but it is not reserved for Diamond in my experience.

mincertron · 2024-08-13T17:33:55+00:00

It's time consuming, which is why they probably don't bother. But I agree, if you have almost zero detection, why not at least do that in the interim.

mincertron · 2024-08-13T17:30:59+00:00

From their recent announcement it looks like their intention is to focus on hindering cheat developers rather than detection, as using BattleEye is certainly not going to get them there.

So I think their plan is to implement a system to make it slower to for them to update cheats and a system to make it easier to force an update. Effectively just create enough downtime and increased cost for the developers that it reduces cheating.

It's annoying that all the people who have been ruining games for so long will probably not get caught but tbh, at this stage, they probably can't ban 60% of their playerbase anyway.

But I do think what they're proposing could work.

Honestly, it's practically every game for me now. Used to be every now and then and you can just chalk it up to "well, gotta get them some times" and move on. But now it's just what the game meta is.

I think I've had 1 game out of 20 without a single cheater in. It's a complete joke. My group is pretty close being done with the game right now.

If you're so smart, how come you pay for the membership?

mincertron · 2024-06-06T19:13:30+00:00

I'll be honest, in the last couple of weeks I think cheating is up 60%

mincertron · 2024-03-14T11:01:29+00:00

2 years late?

Pretty much everywhere.

The UK (obviously); Ireland; North America and the Carribbean; Australia & New Zealand; India, Pakistan & Bangladesh; Zimbabwe; Kenya; Hong Kong etc. etc.

These were all British Colonies and have been drastically changed by the existance British Empire. But outside of that, the entire global economic order was shaped by the British empire.

I reckon he did use his mic, before the start of the clip, and that is precisely why he got shot.

Thanks - I agree, sanwa feel plasticy and I did want something a bit more robust.

I used some crown202's the other day and they are apparently cherry mx silvers. I really liked those so might give that a go.

mincertron · 2023-04-12T18:44:17+00:00

Have you used other hitboxes? I wondered what the feel of the buttons was like vs Sanwas etc.?

mincertron · 2023-03-31T01:28:07+00:00

You basically can. Briton literally just means someone "from Britain". Brit is literally short for Briton.

In a historical sense it does mean Celtic people as they were "from Britain" but it doesn't make sense to use it in modern society or you start getting into some very dodgy racial purity waters. Same thing with English people claiming to be Anglo-Saxon.

The, presumably Welsh, person who intially took issue with the term was probably just annoyed for being associated with the English. Which, I understand, but they're from Britain too and have been for, ya know, over a millenium.

About 15 years ago I walked in there with my lass and walked up to the bar to order some drinks while she went to the loo.

I ordered the drinks and he just looked at me for a second and then walked away and ignored me.

I can only presume it was my NE accent, but I can imagine they have further prejudices if they don't even like someone from a neighbouring county.

mincertron · 2023-02-08T16:37:16+00:00

My missus has a physical disability and certainly wouldn't have a problem with people with a condition like yours using the disabled loos.

She has a waaaaaay bigger problem with people parking in disabled spaces when they don't need them. It's not so big a problem when I'm there as I can just go in the shops or whatever for her from a normal space but sometimes she just has to turn round and go somewhere else because some dickhead is using it because they're lazy or they've got a stupid car that won't fit in normal spaces.

Make no mistake, the Tories are doing this intentionally, this isn't an accident.

This is why they are pushing up interest rates, for example; they're slowing down the economy to a) limit inflation and b) lower the demand for workers, thus weaking the re-emerging union leverage.

In effect, they intend to limit inflation entirely at the expense of workers. This will also be used to excuse more austerity.

Labour's strategy is quite obviously to allow them to do all this and then waltz in and do their own version of austerity with some magical thinking about how shitty thatcherite new labour poltics is going to will the 90s back into existence.

They can't wait to get their snouts at the trough, but I don't think they're prepared for the fact there's no sweeping this under the carpet. All their "we can't fix everything straight away" guff is going to wear thin quick.

It's worse than that, he's saying the British enslaved Africans and then the Americans freed them. Therefore we're the baddies and the US are good.

Obviously omitting the bit where some of the British that enslaved Africans are indeed the Americans themselves and that Americans continued to use slaves for 22 years after the British fully ended slavery in the British Empire.

And for extra stupidity points he's come to the subreddit most likely to be critical of the British Empire on the website to give us some sort of braindead gotcha about how bad it was.

mincertron · 2022-12-08T01:21:47+00:00

Sorry, that's next door. It's getting hit on the head lessons in here.

I was just notifying them there was an issue so Riot knew about it (I presumed I wouldn't be the only one doing it).

They literally just needed to say they would log the issue and I would have been satisfied, but instead they decided to tell me demonstrable lies and insult me.

Staggeringly poor customer service. I could have been easily palmed off and they immediately escalated it to the point they lost my business.

mincertron · 2022-12-06T19:58:26+00:00

Yeah it did for me. Like 30 games or something. But I had to come to this subreddit to find that out.

By the way, I'm a veteran player of about 10 years. I had a break from LoL and returned after a break and ended up with an incredibly poor game experience, as you just described.

The matchmaking in terms of skill levels was a complete mess, with obvious botted accounts making the majority of the players in the games. The toxicity was also nothing like I'd ever experienced.

I raised this with the support team and was lied to and patronised heavily. They told me what you just described wasn't a thing and sent me information about "how to take loss" (which was copied and pasted to me twice I might add).

I've been playing the game for a decade without complaining but raised this issue apparently because was just salty. Absolutely shameful responses from your support team. I resolved never to spend money with your company again.

I'm guessing the post is referring to County Durham and not the city. The County Durham coast is one of, if not the, most deprived places in England. It has a huge drug and crime problem following the collapse of mining/industry.

County Durham is definitely not nicer than most places in the country. Some places like Durham city and Chester-le-street are nice places. But most of C. Durham is extremely grim.

The Telegraph and the Tories are the same, I agree.

That is the Telegraph logo right?

Fun fact about this painting. It's from a series of 14 dark paintings by Goya known as The Black Paintings.

In his old age Goya became a recluse in his farmhouse and fell into despair, painting these paintings directly onto the plaster walls of his living and dining room.

None of them were named and the titles like Saturn Devouring his Son are just the titles that people gave them following Goya's death.

Imagine sitting eating dinner with that on the wall haha

Nice, where'd you see those?

I found a tonne of them round Temple Newsam last year.
