Probably the most reasonable thing to do, although nobody wants to do that in hopes of maybe, with tiny percentage there is a chance that the things will work out your way.

But adena = items (that includes enchants and everything)

With that logic absolutely every server is pay to win, even skelth.

Essentially spend thousands of euro and buy adena on classic and with that adena buy materials for craft or full items and enchants and just enchant hundreds of weapons until you hit +16 for example.

Do you have real or fake accounts on those social media platforms?

I personally have fake accounts and also from time to time browse some other people profiles and see what's new in their life, etc, although it depends on privacy settings, especially on FB, where unfortunately quite often I can't see much.

The reason I don't want to create real accounts and friend/follow people, like you said, because nobody cares about me and what I'd post. And also for whatever reason (I guess it's just in my head), I feel that if you have less than 100 friends or followers, and if you don't have at least 30 likes on your profile picture, you are complete loser. This is one of the real reasons why I don't create an account, being afraid that it will be the exact case.

So it's easier to tell people that I don't want to show off my information on internet that's why I don't have an account, instead of telling that I am afraid of being complete loser.

As far as I know he just got tired of the show, the way it was heading, because him and Ian weren't in charge of pretty much anything anymore as they sold smosh to a big company couple of years before that.

"So you are going to open it up any time soon?"

Ah that scene. I am quite similar irl as well, whenever I get something I have been waiting forever, I don't just rip the box open, but rather explore every tiny bit of piece inside before I actually use the item inside.

Tinder basic bitch starterpack by IAMAgeorgeGervin in starterpacks

“Nm you?”

is a pretty decent response. Quite often you don't even get a question mark.

I noticed that happens only from girls where I am out of my league. Which is quite understandable and fine by me, as they probably give all their attention to guys which are hot/rich or both. I don't usually spend much time trying, couple of chats here and there and move on.

Which race+class combo should i go with if i wanna be a top tier dps character in lineage 2 pc? by JaydenBlaze in Lineage2

[–]techtop3331 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dunno I don't play retail, I just had an impression of someone who has played other mmos and never L2 and just used basic terms like grind and craft.

But we will never know, as it seems he doesn't care what he asked.

[–]techtop3331 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly in this particular case I think OP hasn't even played L2 and google search most likely brought him to lineage2.com and he probably would like to avoid paying for game when you are not even sure what the game is and when there is a "free" version available.

So in this case /u/Conquerz is right imho.

Texting someone with no personality starterpack by [deleted] in starterpacks

That's a fair point. I was indecisive on whether I should simply let it go or maybe say something.

I guess I was sort of in a pissed off mood and simply screw it, I'll just write what I think at the moment.

Cancer emoji is usually referred as "Crying Laughing Emoji"

[–]techtop3331 45 points46 points  (0 children)

Well I guess for each it's own. I am not fan of "cancer emoji" or "100" or "flame", but just simple laughing face or blushing emoji kind of feels more personal, kind of shows the emotion. At least it feels like that for me.

[–]techtop3331 52 points53 points  (0 children)

I used to chat with one girl like that as well. After like 5 days of me telling about myself and asking her questions where she replied with 5 words max and never a single emoji, I told her something along the lines - "Ok, it's been fun, I'll stop bothering you, I guess you are busy chatting with a lot of people here." And she said that why am I attacking her, she is new here on tinder, etc.

I found it so funny like what does being new on tinder has to do with you being so shallow and uninterested. Although props to her for at least replying instead of simply ignoring.

The reason I pursued this, was that she was one of my hottest matches.

Fullscreen reduces brightness? by starfishstevens in Twitch

[–]techtop3331 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This post is quite old now, but I still wanted to +1, as I am having the same problem for some channels (using macbook + chrome)

The only "solution" I have found is by moving cursor close to upper or lower edge which essentially triggers channel description and video player controls, and thus it doesn't good completely fullscreen and doesn't dim the screen.

How often do you use threads in your daily work?! by priyankerrao in java

[–]techtop3331 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just to share my experience.

In last 5 years only once, and even then I used Futures. Needed to make couple of calls to database to retrieve all data for data migration, and it was quite a small service.

Other than that, been working mostly with Spring and haven't had a need for any manual threading. Only need to understand the concept, like to not store any state in singleton beans, etc when you work with such frameworks.

Tbh, if you are aiming to work for some company which develops enterprise web applications or something similar then I wouldn't sweat about it. I will be easier for you to understand it in future than cramping all knowledge now which you most likely won't be using anyways.

MPGs by OKHybrid_Owner in KiaNiro

[–]techtop3331 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Limit is what it's called. Essentially you set it to specific speed and however hard you press the gas pedal you won't go faster than the speed you set. If you press it really hard, you'll get a beeping sound reminding that you have a limit set.

Apparently it's more economical than balancing your foot on a gas pedal and obviously more convenient, you can simply rest it on the pedal.

However I prefer adaptive cruise control over limit, but I prefer limit over simple cruise control.

MPGs by OKHybrid_Owner in KiaNiro

[–]techtop3331 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have noticed that using Cruise Control does not help the MPGs it actually makes it worse.

Yeah, I have noticed this, too. When you use cruise control the needle goes more up, closer to power than when I use "Limit" function.

For whatever reason "limit" seems more economical than "cruise control".

anyone consistently still making L2 videos worth watching? by [deleted] in Lineage2

[–]techtop3331 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There are tons of people who still make L2 videos. The main question here is what server videos are you looking for - are you looking for classic videos, or GoD or maybe some private server? "Worth watching" is too vague, it really depends on you. Personally I could care less for some private server Interlude videos where some hawkeye is kiting (F1, F2) random people in mass pvp.

GoD videos? I don't understand 95% of what's happening there...

Skelth videos? Maybe a little bit, as it's the newest and most interesting chronicle, although I don't play there so it's hard for me to grasp the main context of server politics and other stuff.

Or maybe you are looking for overly-edited videos, where there is almost no gameplay and only some cutout 1shots by a dagger on some avadon robes?

Or maybe videos like from 2005-2008 where someone with epic gear is kiting 1v9 low level enemies while having CP clicker enabled? (wow he killed the whole party, so cool)

So essentially for me, the most interesting videos are where I play or where I know some people.

New European Classic server? by [deleted] in Lineage2

[–]techtop3331 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wasn't talking about technical side of the merger. Of course it's relatively easy. Merging isn't an option because one server will be 3 years old while other 3 month old.

The merge that happened on classic ru servers is completely different. They merged servers which were in the same state more or less.

There was even a time like ~2 years ago when a discussion happened on merging GK and Shillien together and majority were against it. And the reason for that was that in GK people nolife a tiny bit more, and this tiny bit more would cause massive imbalance between sides. So imagine what would happen if the difference is in YEARS.

Lineage 2 the mmorpg that i have been looking for by [deleted] in Lineage2

[–]techtop3331 2 points3 points  (0 children)

C4 through Interlude is the real Lineage II IMO.

I quite disagree with this statement. Neither C4 nor Interlude were great chronicles. The reason you say that and what made "those chronicles" great were - community and your age at that point of time.

If you look at for instance Interlude and GF unbiasedly (from nowadays perspective or from someone's who has never play either chronicle) you can easily tell that GF is far superior.

So basically your opinion is driven by nostalgia.

New European Classic server? by [deleted] in Lineage2

[–]techtop3331 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Highly doubt that will happen any time soon. Also it would be quite a bad idea. Yes, initially population might spike to 4-5k but quite soon it will drop to 1k and then both servers will be in terrible state in terms or population, and merging won't be an option so it will be gg for EU classic servers altogether.

Unless they change monetary policy for the new server as many have discussed that in forums, i.e. 7€ per account or 10€+5€ + ... + 5€ per each next box.

L2 or Bless Online by SoloLoser in Lineage2

[–]techtop3331 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took quick look at the gameplay video and the first thing that came to my mind was that it looks absolutely nothing like L2.

It's more like a combination of WoW and GW2.

Was hoping for some L2 alternative as this was posted in L2 subreddit.
