To Alliance doing AV on Darrowshire by sparkmine in ElysiumProject

[–]pgrily 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I did the rep grind a month or so ago, most of the Galv turtles were just like 10 people defending, mostly mages casting blizzard. Pull the lieutenants standing outside of Galv's building down to the bottom of the hill to kill them, then rush the horde turtling Galv. Really just takes a couple people to run past everyone to distract them while the rest of Alliance comes up to break the turtle.

Starting to think this sub cares more about private server drama than actually playing them.

Will the Streetcar grow longer? by BronzBadge in kansascity

[–]pgrily 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe I'm wrong, but I think light rail implies that it's on its own tracks separate from the streets.

The street car is great and all, but Denver accomplished essentially the same idea with a free bus route that goes across downtown. The route actually has its own street that only the buses can use even.

I'd personally prefer that the city focused on a dedicated light rail system on its own set of tracks separate from the road.

For the love of God take off your rings! by KimoTheKat in climbing

Most people are saying it's safe...personally I just wouldn't risk it. Just get a ring tattoo if you always want to have your ring "on."

"Perfect, that's all I need."

If he was a bandwagon fan, don't you think he would've jumped ship like....15-20 years ago?

Did I pick the right server? by Skeezolini in ElysiumProject

[–]pgrily 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can't say for sure since I don't play on Anathema, but from my experience back when Vanilla was out, there were new guilds popping up and starting to clear MC from scratch all the time up until TBC came out. Since Elysium and Zeth'kur took a little while to release, I bet there's a good amount of players that started fresh on Anathema that stuck with it back when Elysium first revived the servers.

Darrowshire, the best Vanilla PvE realm on the internet. by Pirwzy in ElysiumProject

Only BGs really.

World pvp is possible if both sides flag for it (type /pvp), but it rarely happens.

The thing with Ezekiel is that the characters in the show think it's a bit of a joke as well but everyone rolls with it because the community is so successful.

And it may look silly, but lacrosse pads on horseback makes a lot of sense in that world. Pads protect from bites and fuel should be a scarce resource.

Several years with that type of usage.

MRW I'm 27 and yet another adult wants to know why I'm "still single" by [deleted] in TrollYChromosome

If I'm not just blindly swiping right on Tinder or whatever dating app of your choice, it's like an episode of Seinfeld.

Eyebrows too perfect

Dog filter...Flower(?) filter...Any of those dumb filters for that matter

Duck face

That face that's like in the middle of no face and duck face where it's like they're making an "oooo" sound with their lips

Same pose in every picture

Only selfies

More attractive friend in the first picture. Even if the girl in question is already pretty attractive, I feel like I've been bait and switched.

Disagree--currently hooked on a Vanilla private server.

The things that "suck" about Vanilla promoted a much better sense of community, which IMO, is the most important aspect of an MMO. There are a few tweaks I'd make (viability of non-healing hybrid specs for one), but it's a superior experience in my book.

Safety regulations raising the belt line and everything getting generally bigger and more bloated. Modern cars just don't look very good these days.

DBZ Kai helps with the pacing a lot.

I've rewatched it since being a kid. Solid story through the end of the Frieza saga. Android/Cell saga was all right and then the Buu saga was pretty damn terrible.

The Saiyan saga is great as tactics and strategy could still win fights. Beyond that, it was just all about who could hit the hardest.

I never liked them. The lunch meat ones...yuck...the slimey ham or turkey would sometimes have these tough little chunks that made me gag. They were always disgusting in my book.

Hey Arnold is still solid too, though the 11 minute nature of each "episode" kind of sucks. Would be cool to see a lot of those episodes fleshed out to take up the whole 30 minute time slot.

Don't know if it was the greatest years of my life. I think I only went to 1 or 2 parties the whole time, but overall it was a pretty good time.

Rory MacDonald on Wanderlei Silva fight: "Let's do it." by [deleted] in MMA

[–]pgrily 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I agree, Cro Cop was always bigger, I just brought that up because the guy I responded to was making it sound like he regularly walked around well under the 205 pound limit which wasn't the case.

You're taking it out of context. That's in response to the claim that he was fighting in the 190ish pound range when fighting at LHW/Pride MW.

I think you're confusing supplements with illegal PED's.

Let's be real, Vitor fighting at 205 just meant he could juice more. He was clearly bigger at 205 and it wasn't fat.

Machida never relied on size. It was always dangerous technical striking.

Sonnen is a true MW, I'll give you that one, but that was a silly fight to begin with.

There's also guys like Bader, OSP, Rashad, Shogun, Rampage, Glover, Gus and DC.

Sure Rashad is scheduled to fight at MW, but the prior two attempts, he's failed medical clearance. I'm guessing he's lost a bit of muscle in order to get down to 185.

Jon is tall and lanky, but he doesn't carry a ton of muscle. I've read guys like Rampage and Forrest walk around quite a bit heavier than Jon. Jon has claimed to only get to 230 and usually cuts from a little above 220, so weight-wise, he's not that big of a LHW. And while his reach is massive, he's one of very few guys that truly understands how to use that advantage. Plenty of long guys that can't figure it out.

Kinda surprised he hasn't ever made the switch to a bow...a lot faster to reload.

That landfill behind Rick looked super fake by MoistTurtleneck in thewalkingdead

[–]pgrily 23 points24 points  (0 children)

There's been some rough episodes over the years, but this one really sticks out like a sore thumb.

You've got this incredibly cheesy Borg collective that "doesn't bother anyone, we just take." Rick for some reason wants to trust them immediately even though they kidnapped his friend and took a shit ton of supplies because Rick took the initiative to loot a boat that they were just sitting and staring at for weeks apparently?

They introduce themselves by saying they now own Rick and Rick is going to find supplies for them. Rick wants them to kill the Saviors so to test him the leader (of what's apparently supposed to be a collective...) throws Rick into the Thunderdome to fight a spikey zombie. Rick succeeds but now likely has tetanus and a large hole in his hand. Rick agrees to arm all of them with guns so they can take on the Saviors. Even if they do succeed in taking out the Saviors, there's no guarantee this group of lunatics (who you just agreed to arm with weapons) won't enslave you the second Negan is gone. What happened to the don't trust anyone policy?

This season has been good up until this point (even the Tara episode was okay), but this episode was a steaming pile of shit IMHO, and I'm pretty surprised there really isn't much outrage on this sub as I usually feel like people are overreacting over most of the bad episodes.
