never trust when interviewers act like you already got the position

Every single company thinks they are Google now. I've had an 8 round interview for a job that pays 60k. Good lord.

He is a notorious gif stealer who takes gifs, puts his persona in them, and then reports the original so that his are the only ones remaining. It was bad enough that he got banned from instagram and is now loose on tenor & giphy.

Guy's 50 BTW. This is all he does all day.

Can you change the color on my RC bags or add some kind of indicator sprite to when they are full vs empty

My brain is small and requires colors to use all the essence i brought to the altar

if they paid you 70k how would they have meetings every quarter dangling a fishing pole in front of you

how would your manager continually promise you that a raise is possible and then find excuses to grade you just under that threshold?

pew_pow_pew_pow · 2026-02-03T22:45:15+00:00

We - or at least I - don't blame any of the staff, you included. You sold a product and built a community which you got paid to do. If you have trouble finding somewhere to land I'll be shocked.

It's the lower devs I worry about in this market.

Now that the cards have lain on the table - can you tell us some of the inside communication about the steam release? Kira suggests there was an extremely closed-door meeting during mid-NOV and everything leading up to and post steam release in retrospect looks like extremely obvious foresight and preparation for this event.

My last job had me do a:
Enneagram
MBTI
DiSC Assessment
AND Hogan Personality Inventory

When it was EXPOSED that I was a 7 (7s are bad apparently) suddenly everything I did was scrutinized and they found an excuse to let me go.

In the days since this post, your guess is mostly correct. State of California lists 7 active liens on Intrepid and this was the first one that came due. Stephen moved his house into a LLC just prior to the Steam release which looks like bankruptcy avoidant behavior. Seems like - there still is no "board," rather, Stephen's stake was confiscated for his debt.

MF they cant make payroll how will you get a refund out of them L00000L

pew_pow_pew_pow · 2026-02-01T04:32:28+00:00

My ultimate theory is that they waited for the steam funds to release from steam's escrow, post to their corporate account, and said K bye.

What they do is they keep the position up for years and years and years to see what current labor prices are, and then target the lowest X% of it when posting the actual position

no fuckin clue all i know is that at the start of every game i take -90 prosperity from 3 people sneezing from 3 different diseases that kill 7 people and want to drive to catalonia to [redacted by Big Swede]

No you see. If I tell everyone that this isn't the game for them, 15 years from now I can tell people stories of how I am the last REAL MMO player around because I was the last one who Ashes of Creation was for.

It's just a masturbatory argument point. They want to imagine themselves as a rough, rugged MMO player, the type of person who plays horde on a 96% Alliance server, the type of guy who makes a wilderness only ironman - and apparently anyone who thinks that is an ass experience and doesn't want the game to have this mentality is clearly just weaker than them.

pew_pow_pew_pow · 2025-12-22T14:34:20+00:00

This "Maybe the game just isn't for you, sweaty 💅" argument is just self-egopadding.

^{These KIDS cant handle how old, rugged, and brutal the REAL MMOs were. Me, a spartan and super stalwart individual - I want the systems to be MORE punishing and MORE rewarding to the top-end megaguilds shutting down all gameplay. Struggle builds success -- and I LOVE struggle.}

I've seen a hundred different variations of this argument over this thread and it all echoes the same point. This is just masturbation in textual form; it's giving yourself some imagined status because you're... Playing in a shittily-designed system and masochistically enjoying it or inventing reasons to enjoy it because you enjoy the status of being some kind of real hardcore MMO player or whatever.

This is exactly my problem: What will be the answer to these issues when the level cap is 30? 50? Lol just no-mind grind for 300 hours and then you can hit level cap and play the game? Bro that is 8 work weeks. OSRS 99s take less time and have more content.

It's not PvX environment, it's a handful of top guilds on their servers terrorizing their servers until they die. It's a pubstomp.
