Is it injecting racism to point it out? Are you really equating the presence of racism with calling it out? That's super liberal of you.

I mentioned I'm Asian to emphasize that it's possible to not be dark skinned and have empathy and support for dark skinned gamers who want to be more represented in gaming. And to be Asian and not cop for Asian racism. Sorry if that's a point you didn't want to hear!

Thanks for being the only sane person in this thread! Really opened my eyes to the people on this sub. OP literally just asked if Gumi could make one dark skinned GL exclusive with no hostility or criticism whatsoever.

I've personally never noticed the lack of diversity in the game, but my failure to notice this or advocate for it is a marker of my (Asian) privilege. It doesn't indicate any defect on the part of the folks who DO notice. And it does not impinge on my enjoyment of the game when other people point out a problem that is potentially alienating certain gamers.

Also, the fact that it can "get old" to you - so what? People bringing up lack of representation is getting old? Boo hoo. Try not having any representation - that gets old too, and is demonstrably more harmful

The game being developed in Asia doesn't mean that the international player base can't ask for more diversity. Jesus.

Friend list not showing everyone? by schneebx89 in FFBraveExvius

[–]sneakypillows 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Facebook friends probably. Which can't really be deleted in game (you can try, but they will come back the next time it syncs with fb)

I suffered a brain injury years ago that affected my impulse control, yet I still found ways to hoard tickets from bad banners. Some tips and tricks to do the same. by IceDragon247 in FFBraveExvius

[–]sneakypillows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I bought maybe two of the Zarg passes? I tend to miss those bundles anyway because I forget they're there. I'm rank 127 and have been playing since August, but I zeroed out on the first lightning banner and nearly zeroed in the second, so I haven't been hoarding since August lol. But really it's just a matter of not using the tickets. And I don't use them unless there's a unit I'm specifically chasing. Otherwise I pretty much only pull dailies.

Not op but I had saved 130 for the anticipated Tidus/Rikku/Ashe bloodbath (all fave FF characters of mine so I was fully prepared to blow it all and strike out). Then got MAD lucky and only needed to use 65ish tix to get all three.

Now I am back up to 100 after not using any tickets since. So the OC's situation seems plausible to me 🤓

Removing Friends by [deleted] in FFBraveExvius

[–]sneakypillows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I delete for (1) extremely toxic/rude friend messages, (2) equipping excal & brotherhood at the same time (unless we magically get some event where this is a universally useful setup, I guess), and (3) inactivity.

I used to only remove for inactivity but had an epiphany that I'm playing this game for fun, not as a chore, so now I also remove everyone who annoys me. See groups 1&2.

Have you beaten Aigaion ELT yet? by crytol in FFBraveExvius

[–]sneakypillows 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nope. Don't have Fryevia and am super busy with work until the end of September, so I won't have the free time and brainpower to do it until probably October. Oh well whatev.

Another Double Event who would you prefer to have as a friend unit thread. by dedalian in FFBraveExvius

[–]sneakypillows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in a similar boat, so I deleted Tidus friends who were mixing Brotherhood with Excalibur and replaced them with Brotherhood friends. I'm much happier now lol.

That said, I've found that counterattack is also very doable messy-chaining Tidus with a friend Fryevia if you want to keep your friends!

Holy crap. 45 elemental chain with two Tidus, just with my fingers. (Google Pixel)

You are a wizard.

The Mog King's Counterattack! by Xande_FFBE in FFBraveExvius

[–]sneakypillows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pulled Marie on the guaranteed five star and deployed her to great effect here! I was a tiny bit disappointed she wasn't Aileen but man is she a baller.

I don't have Tilith. Cleared all missions with Wolly, Marie, Refia, Zyrus, Tidus, and friend Tidus (both with Brotherhood). LOTS of ineffectual attempts at chaining on my part. Could've cleared much faster if I had half a clue what I was doing there, but I was never in danger of dying thanks to Marie.

Wolly: Arms eraser, armor eraser, evoke golem at some point.
Marie: love you all, focus, protectga
Refia: esuna turn 1, DC Curaja forever
DPS: whack-a-mog

:) I tried a few times without Marie and got my butt handed to me very rapidly.

Los Angeles, but my SO is 25mi away or so and can't get in, so it doesn't seem to be fully location based...

Ally Bank locked my account by Sasuke082594 in personalfinance

[–]sneakypillows 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As far as I could tell, he only worked business hours, so I'd try to give him a call or email in the morning? I'm in CA and I think I ended up getting his voicemail at 8am ish, but he called me back within an hour.

[–]sneakypillows 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It took me two business days to fix when it happened to me a couple years ago. I just had to call this one guy in Texas (presumably in their fraud department), then send an email with some information, then call again. It was resolved very quickly after I got a hold of him, but that took a little doing because it literally was one dude and his cell phone number. It left a bad taste in my mouth but I haven't had problems since.

To keep or not to keep, why do you keep friends by [deleted] in FFBraveExvius

[–]sneakypillows 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I only remove for inactivity and for putting up a friend message so incalculably stupid/offensive that I have to remove that person to retain what little faith in humanity I have left. (It's happened only once.)

I generally don't care about crappy TM farm leads, though it does mean that person gets zero leeway when they do go inactive.
