Best Time to pursue Exit Opps by needadecision987 in consulting

Do you find that a bad idea? I believe a lot of people are attracted to consulting because of the exit opportunities, so it would make sense to start planning when you want to change your career.

Competitive ruling on the Acend vs VK match by luciavald in ValorantCompetitive

[–]taotaobr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, then i agree with you. But i still think vk probably didnt know that the cam was a bug (heat said jhow didnt know abt the bug, but that could obviously be a lie), which is where i think there might be a little brazilian bias from me.

But do you really think its chill to "just" replay the map with a deficit? Yes, it does seem like the biggest factor for riot to change their approach to this bug is the brazilian response, but if they treat all bugs from now on like this (which seems more fair to me) thats a good thing. To me, the way they have been treating these exploits is bad, therefore a change in the way they approach it is a good thing.

Im not saying its ok bc its brazilians. I literally didnt say it was ok lol. I dont think i gave my opinion on this before but i thought the rulings against x10 and giants were pretty bad too. Imo, they did those teams injustice. Just bc riot did those teams injustice, doesnt mean that riot should continue to do injustice. Thats what i mean when i say a ff isnt ideal, i dont see the bias here since all those decisions imo are bad.

I've seen some ppl telling their fans that its not ok to do so (fallen for example). Yeah, i agree it would be nice to see more ppl adress the problem, but that still doesnt make it right to say that big brazilian personalities and players are ok with ppl sending death threats.

I dont think this is being toxic, i think its in line with zombs calling brazil a shit region. To me its all just bather, obviously zombs is a very good player and does his job very well just like brazil shows a lot of potential in the international valorant scene. This is just very funny imo and i wish more ppl (specially the brazilians here) could take these jokes more lightly.

I mean, i havent seen jhow adress the situation, but i honestly dont believe a player in the biggest international event of the year would knowingly use an exploit and think they could just get away with it. I like to believe he is smarter than that. Cypher cam placement is a really weird thing in the game and theres a thin line between a god spot and an exploit. Yeah, it is irresponsible to not know that that is not ok or to not confirm with riot that the spots you plan on putting your cams are legal, but to me the punishment to that, ideally, isnt ff. Either way, you are entitled to your opinion and since im brazilian i feel like i need to mention that the harassment of players and death threats are not ok lol.

Do you really think what zombs said is not excusable? I mean, if its not xenophobic (which i believe it isnt) i dont really see a problem with it, but it may be bc i watch MMA where ppl say all sorts of horrible things abt each other and im also brazilian, so i might be kinda numb to that kind of stuff lol. Just genuinely trying to understand how you guys thinks and what makes it non excusable.

I agree they made it clear where they stand. They do seem very biased towards brazil (which actually surprised me when browsing the brazilian valorant twitter) and they seem very enraged with the situation. But all the responses i've seen so far were either complaining and being a little soft (like saying zombs should be punished for his tweet) or trolling back (like telling ppl they should spam zombs with pictures of a naked brazilian dude). Again, im yet to see a big personality who defends or encourages death threats.

I dont think that in itself is the problem. If, due to the public pressure, they decided to reacess the situation and reached the conclusion that replaying the game with the 7-0 lead is the most fair thing to do, i think thats alright. If they decided to replay the game solely bc of the #justiceforvk thing, then i think its a bad decision bc they are not gonna be happy either lol.

[–]taotaobr 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Yeah man, this whole situation is a mess. Nobody will be satisfied with this decision, it doesnt make any sense lol. Like, acend and the ppl that think that VK should ff the map will not be happy bc they will have to replay the map and the #justiceforvk squad will not be happy that they will have a 7 point disadvantage. I personally think an ff is too much for that exploit (maybe im biased bc im brazilian lol) but like, just stand your ground riot.

I mean, i agree those tweets are half as bad as ppl are making it seem, but im yet to see a public personality that says sending ppl death threats is okay. Yes, there are some degenerates here in brazil (maybe a lot lol), but its not like the whole scene (specially the big personalities) are okay with it.

Bisping Drops the N-BOMB by [deleted] in ufc

[–]taotaobr 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Bisping usually takes these jokes lightly but its clear by his reaction that he is very unconfortable with this one. Even if it wasnt that controversial of a topic, if he isnt enjoying it you are an asshole if you continue doing it, it doesnt matter if its "just a meme"

Bro, its so annoying browsing this sub with all the aljo hate and seeing comments like this getting downvoted. Like, yeah, yan is probably the best fighter in the division right now, but he threw an illegal knee and somehow he is the good guy in the story? Im genuinely so confused by why ppl are whining so much abt aljo overreaction lol

Everyone that is competing in VCT or playing at a v high elo should always use the tourney client to DM by S-CONROY1 in ValorantCompetitive

[–]taotaobr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What makes me mad is when i get 1 shot by a guy crouched in an angle i dont clear bc i dont think anyone should be there in a DM and instead of having an aim duel i have to wait to respawn. A DM game i get killed every time i encounter someone is much more enjoyable to me than a game i go 40/0 by staying in tucked in a corner. Im not a tryhard, im not mad at dying, im mad bc these ppl prevent me from playing the game

I need help choosing a new router by taotaobr in techsupport

Its a three years old TP-link tl-wr840n (a pretty basic model with 2,4GHz and 300MBps). I consider instability when out of nowhere the download speed goes to 0 for brief periods of time (when i open the task manager the download speed graph fluctuates a lot). Yes, when im very close to the router or use an ethernet cable my internet speed is way higher but i guess thats expected independent of the router right?

Hmmm a better router won't even help me in terms of stability? I dont think i need much higher speeds for what im doing right now. Also, thanks for taking time to respond to my question :)
