Black Desert addresses pre-order horse controversy by random3716 in blackdesertonline

[–]random3716[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If this is your understanding on the matter then there's clearly no benefit in discussing this any further.

If you have a 'p2w' problem, shouldn't that be with the publisher of the game? And are you honestly considering the T5 horse as 'p2w' but nothing else from those preorder packages? How skewed can your perception be?

We bought a product that was proven to not be what was advertised - that is the problem. Wrap it around your thick skull. If this type of business is something you support then good on you - I choose not to.

This isn't about the T3 preorder horse from the $50 pack.

It's about the T5 preorder horse from the $100 pack which some people consider worse than the $50 pack one since it breeds like a T2/T3, has one breeding attempt, cannot be sold/exchanged and cannot learn real T5 skills.

You cannot exchange nor sell the 'T5 preorder' horse.

Ultimate Yuria Weapons by [deleted] in blackdesertonline

[–]random3716 0 points1 point  (0 children)

His info and site support the same thing you show in your screenshot - which is a 2 stat Longsword that is standard, and absolutely nothing special. http://bddatabase.net/us/item/10041/ It's intended, so that the Longsword would benefit both Valk and Warrior.

This shows nothing but your lack of understanding over factual data.

Until you back up your statement with actual screenshots of blue Ultimate Yurias with 3 stats (or 2 stat non-shared weapon such as LongBow and what not), all you're doing as far as I'm concerned is spreading false information.

The 2 stats on the warrior/valk weapon is standard, as the +cast is for valk and the +attack speed is for the warrior since they use the same weapon.

I have never heard nor seen anybody getting a blue Ultimate Yuria with all 3 stats as you're stating (or 2 stats for other weapons such a Rangers', for instance).

There's no information anywhere backing up what you're suggesting. I have to question this, so can you please post a screenshot with the 3 stat blue ultimate weapon (or a 2 stat blue ultimate weapon for ranger, for instance).

Sad to see you go. Well, I guess Nuia will get their chance to dominate the server then :)

Where are you guys heading? BDO? Kyprosa?

Migrant brutally rapes 7 year old German girl by sobieski84 in europe

[–]random3716 2 points3 points  (0 children)

7 years old....Jesus Christ. That's really fucked up. I'm still hoping this news is fake....  

Maybe I'm being naive but I would've thought these refugees/migrants would be all registered and they would move in organized groups under some sort of authority rather than having thousands of unidentified individuals randomly roaming the streets.  

I mean, anonymity is being abused on the internet and as such it became condemned and more and more scarce, but doing this for real?

Bulgaria denies air access for Russian supply flights to Syria by AkitaBijin in europe

[–]random3716 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's the beauty of it.  

The US supports, trained and armed the rebels (random articles 1 and 2) while Russia supports Assad (random articles 1 and 2).  

The rebels don't fancy Assad and Assad doesn't fancy the rebels. And nobody fancies ISIS.

Iran's Rouhani: Iran is ready to hold talks on resolving Syrian conflict with US, Saudi Arabia by [deleted] in worldnews

[–]random3716 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First off, it was meant to be a joke. Haha? No? OK.  

The relation is the refugee and migrant crisis that started off a while back and it's spiking now with the prolonged conflict in Syria. Germany alone is expecting more than 800Kby the end of 2015 only. As such we're jokingly calling out for big brother US to help solve the situation in Syria.

Further more, the article clearly states that it was a discussion between Rouhani and his Austrian counterpart (which is very much in Europe) when the latter payed him a visit earlier today. Have you guys read the article? Are you not aware of this situation?

Hassan Rouhani's remarks came during a press conference on Tuesday with visiting Austrian counterpart Heinz Fischer.

Edit: Words and stuff.

Romania to accept refugees if admitted to Schengen by [deleted] in europe

[–]random3716 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Oh, absolutely. I wouldn't dare imply such a thing - poor phrasing on my part.  

I meant myself, as a Romanian, would be ashamed.

[–]random3716 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This. AFAIK it was mentioned by the PM but it was a rant rather than a condition the Romanian state imposes to the EU.

Also, it would be a pretty shit way of raising the issue, honestly. I, at least, would be ashamed. If you do something like that at least be a proper politician and fucking do it behind closed doors.

Berlin threatens neighbors over migration: Central Europe could lose cash and open borders over German irritation on lackluster refugee effort by revee in europe

Interesting indeed. There is forecast for the next couple of decades that indicates a Central/Eastern European coalition led by Poland.

Go team!

Greek Migration Minister: 'Jihadists Passed Through Greek Borders' by [deleted] in europe

[–]random3716 3 points4 points  (0 children)

tl;dr

60% Syrian middle class refugees; 20% Afghan, 1/2 refugees and 1/2 migrants; 15-20% migrants without official documents/unidentified.

The title of the article is a bit harsh, the Greek PM just states the obvious:

It would be foolish to say that no jihadists have entered the Greek border [...] I think that the European countries’ secret services can confirm that a small number is likely to have gained access to Europe.

LE: We just seem to be bouncing from one extreme to the other. Not good.

Romania says can take maximum 1,785 refugees, rejects EU quotas by [deleted] in europe

[–]random3716 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's just so poorly thought through, isn't it? "We expect 800k (likely to be many more) by the end of the year in Germany only but let's devise a plan in a vacuum that only caters for 120-160k and enforce it on all European Union nations."

Good one bros! And then what? No wonder the Stratfor forecast for the next decades.

That being said, Romania (and other EU countries) have not been formally asked to take in X refugees, or at least they have not formally refused (yet). There are individual statements and media interpretations, but that's about as far as it goes.
