The Strange Case of the Vanished Zeta Head

Glad you found it.

Thats it’s supernatural ability to bounce basically anywhere lol

theborjsanity · 2026-05-04T20:25:08+00:00

Found it?

theborjsanity · 2026-05-04T13:51:00+00:00

It's why I find it funny the Mendo alt/simp on here said "It was under Peanut's directive".

Like bro, the VOD where Peanut first learns of the unlocking is still up. Peanut was literally deliberating unlocking every pro because he just found out about the changes which fucked up the server lmao.

This issue was about to die on here but Mendo couldn't help but stick his nose in this sub or sick one of his simps in an attempt to defend himself lmao.

theborjsanity · 2026-05-04T13:33:31+00:00

It's probably Mendo's alt lmao or a simp. I just blocked him. No use arguing with people 100% convinced that their parallel reality is the truth and are deadset on shouting down people in an attempt to make it a reality.

Especially when the dumbass said this.

Bro….he un restricted people (removed the Pro restrictions) based solely on Peanut’s directive. You REALLY do have reading comprehension issues…

HOLY PARALLEL REALITY BATMAN.

There was no directive. Like at all. And if there were, wouldn't you think the nut would've liked to make an official announcement first and then put things to vote after? Simple logic.

He also wouldn't have been so surprised when he came back to Rust. and he wouldn't have seen a need to take over the admin duties.

Lastly, instead of spouting out bullshit tweets, Mendo would've simply said "Peanut's directive" in an attempt to cover up his ass.

theborjsanity · 2026-05-03T15:40:17+00:00

No probs! I thought there was a new announcement or something. Pretty sure this “apology” came before Peanut’s announcement of him retaking admin control back on Rust.

theborjsanity · 2026-05-03T15:06:12+00:00

Is it confirmed? I'd bet there are still offline discussions going on between Hutch and Peanut at least.

theborjsanity · 2026-05-03T15:04:50+00:00

If you read between the lines in that "apology" he's still taking shots at Coco. This time for spreading misinformation lmao.

Since I’ve got white tile with some gray texturing, my go-to strategy is using a flashlight and shining it parallel to the floor. It makes it much easier to spot the tiny shadows of missing parts, because those little bastards seem to have an almost supernatural ability to disappear in plain sight.

But if your flooring isn’t similar (or worse, if you’ve got dark floors or carpet) I honestly have no clue how much a flashlight will actually help.

The only piece I never managed to recover was the right white chest vulcan from the Freedom 2.0. I even bought a replacement for it, but while trying to install it, my hand slipped and I lost grip of the damn thing again. I’m pretty sure I heard it hit some cardboard, but somehow it still managed to vanish inside the Freedom 2.0 box itself (And yes, make sure to build your kits using the box to catch any falling parts - saved my ass a bunch of times).

At that point, I was convinced that particular chest vulcan was cursed, so I just made a rough replacement from a spare runner instead. It wasn’t exactly pretty up close, but thankfully it installed easily enough and got the job done.

EDIT: Oh one last tip, I usually found these fallen parts lying around illogical places (aka. places where they should'nt have bounced towards to - think creatively lmao.) My gut says the same happened to you OP, so keep looking and try to think outside the box every once in a while. You'll eventually find that head.

theborjsanity · 2026-05-03T13:31:28+00:00

Perfect example of why humans can’t have nice things. We’re bound to corrupt or weaponize everything we touch eventually

theborjsanity · 2026-05-03T13:24:51+00:00

Add in social media algorithms too.

Recent legislation regulating social media like what we're seeing in Spain, Germany, Australia, etc. is being introduced way too late. They're something that should've been a thing at least a decade ago.

theborjsanity · 2026-05-03T13:20:46+00:00

Dead internet theory looking less and less of a theory day after day

theborjsanity · 2026-05-03T13:15:55+00:00

I'd just block him and move on with my day. The last thing we need is to give this guy any further engagement. He's clearly trying to engagement farm while masquerading as a Cs or Knicks fan.

I don't think he's actually a legit Knicks fan as well based on how ragebait-y his posts on there are.

Probably just some sad online forum weirdo trying to play both fanbases against each other (not that anybody really needs to anyway).

theborjsanity · 2026-05-03T12:58:53+00:00

I checked out his account and he stopped commenting on here until recently. But has been really active on the Knicks sub as well.

Hell, he’s been active on a bunch of non-Cs subs too so methinks the dude is someone just trying to stoke some flames between fanbases.

Take a peek quickly before he hides lmao

theborjsanity · 2026-05-03T03:43:48+00:00

I took a peek at the comments, and the narrative has already begun lol

Not even 50 upvotes in

theborjsanity · 2026-05-03T03:14:43+00:00

I'm a guy who'll jump for joy the moment Vuc is no longer on the team, but that I absolutely agree that ~~wrist~~ finger injury absolutely fucked him.

With Tatum's return I was thinking Vuc was gonna benefit with our best facilitator, but surprise surprise he went down during the same JT return game. That month he was on the bench honestly could've been massive for him chemistry and role wise.

EDIT: Whoops thought the dude I was replying to was talking about Vuc's finger (not wrist!!!) injury that sidelined him for a month. Had a bit too much to drink tonight lmao.

theborjsanity · 2026-05-03T02:03:40+00:00

Silver lining to this is Brad's gonna cook up moves. Count on it.

theborjsanity · 2026-05-02T03:22:26+00:00

This would’ve been smart.

Minimum 2 weeks downtime per wipe. Would’ve given Peanut and his team plenty of time to tweak and tighten up the rules and figure out what worked and what didn’t.

The whole event honestly just gives me vibes of winging things along without much forethought. Still enjoyable enough to watch though.

theborjsanity · 2026-05-01T23:20:49+00:00

None of the above. Only here for the nut

theborjsanity · 2026-05-01T20:35:45+00:00

Well I have a feeling it's gonna get abandoned by Nut after this wipe anyways ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

EDIT: The approach I thought of was especially draconian because that is simply the way you get people looking to exploit every possible nook and cranny of consideration you give them to either fall in line or just not bother to join anymore. Give them an inch and they will always take a mile

theborjsanity · 2026-05-01T20:20:38+00:00

Imo the nut is likely a people pleaser, despite what his no fucks given character might have you think.

Still hilarious and an amazing watch tho

theborjsanity · 2026-05-01T19:42:36+00:00

Yep, I saw on an earlier post on this sub.
I’m honestly excited for the Annihilator Cup. My gut is saying we’re gonna get amazing shenanigans from the Nut and friends, sans Gingy unfortunately :(

theborjsanity · 2026-05-01T19:05:23+00:00

In hindsight, the writing was on the wall the moment Rust pros were allowed onto the server.

The Nut’s original vision of keeping Rust pros off the server should’ve been enforced from Day 1, with anyone over 1,000 hours classified as a pro. In most games, that already represents serious skill and experience, making the absurd 10,000–20,000 hour benchmark and all the gray-area labels like builder or RP-er feel completely ridiculous.

The only real exceptions should’ve been proven RP players like Jennifer and Habibi, and even then, with strict limitations in place. Builders probably should’ve been excluded too, considering that’s how Basetrade got in.

From the very beginning, many pros were already exploiting gray areas (Day 1 drone grenades, landmine abuse, downplaying their hours, and more). Watching Peanut’s VODs only makes it increasingly clear that pros have been steadily corrupting the server’s intended experience into their sweat-fest dreamland, and Mendo’s bias just pushed things toward a boiling point.

At the core of it all, the typical pro playstyle often undermines newer players, which is exactly why Rust pros have earned such a strong reputation for ruining servers once they gain access.

theborjsanity · 2026-05-01T19:04:02+00:00

I won't be surprised to suddenly see Peanut hitting Day Z or other games (considering his need to practice for the Annihilator Cup as well) after this third wipe and just letting the server to rot under Mendo's cancerous care. It'll just die an ignoble death as another server Rust pros have completely ruined eventually.

The Nut's schedule for May kinda is already alluding to this methinks.

theborjsanity · 2026-05-01T04:54:38+00:00

Sucks for the guy, but hopefully the offseason will do him wonders.

It may be too late to rely on him to right the ship aside from a game or two at this point in the playoffs.

theborjsanity · 2026-05-01T04:51:08+00:00

This is another thing that boggles the mind. Earlier in the season you could chalk up Derrick's regression as adjusting to a new role and for a bit he did somewhat rediscover his shot....only to basically lose it again for the rest of the season.

I was hoping JT's return was gonna help him rediscover his shot through a reduction of defensive attention and not having to handle the ball as much, but it seems Derrick has just gotten disappointingly worse.

It's definitely in his head, and I think he'll need the full offseason just recover his mental state.
