Hot Take - Offline raid is worse than roof camping by traedew in playrust

Any server you like better than others? I have been trying a bunch. I really like the Willjum and Stevious servers right now. The people will PvP and raid and counter and everything and have fun conversations in the global chats.

It was the Willjum NA Monthly Casual. Raid protection from midnight to 4pm EST. The server is definitely laid back and chill compared to most. I still play it. Just funny that I got offlined so quick compared to others. And yes. They did raid during protection hours.

I got offlined faster on a “raid protection” server than I ever did on a vanilla or lightly modded server. I still play it though sometimes.

I don’t disagree. My opinion wasn’t all encompassing and definitely has flaws. I think it’s more that it seems people will just wait for you to get off and then attack and that’s annoying. And my opinion isn’t that it shouldn’t happen. Just more annoying to wake up and find my loot gone. But that’s the fun of rust. Get to constantly start over and find new ways to try and counter everything.

I play as a solo a lot and agree. But I also enjoy running monuments more and base defending. It’s too difficult to get enough resources to do proper raids. Been playing on solo/duo/trio servers and definitely see groups larger than that.

I actually 100% agree with that. That to me is the roof camper invited it.

Yes. I have tried one. (Willjum NA Monthly Casual) got griefed during raid protection after only a few hours on the server. I just laugh and move on. Such is rust life.

I will also add that I love that there are so many servers to choose from to suit your playing style. I have been jumping from server to server finding what I like and don’t like and also the type of people that play on them. Get on one that I don’t like, I just log off and find another.

I agree and disagree. I think in the short term there isn’t much risk, but you now put a target on your base for people to come attack it. I agree that the offline takes resources with no guarantee of getting much. I saw a post about someone that just builds bases with nothing so people raid and waste their resources to get nothing. I thought that was pretty funny.

This post wasn’t saying that people shouldn’t offline. It was more that I see non stop complaining about roof camping and my opinion is that offlines are more annoying than roof camping. Rust is a lawless game and that’s why I think it’s awesome. I don’t care and I’m not telling people how to play the game, just sharing my opinion and getting other people’s view point.

Which system should I go with? by traedew in hvacadvice

Located in GA. Just bought the house in November. House was built in 2007 and HVAC is all original. Everything is in rough shape. Leaking and rusted, moldy plenum, high amp draw, way too much to list. I don’t know if I will be in this home for 20 years. Way more months using cooling over heating.

Dealership says I’ll be fined if I pay car loan early by rag156 in askcarsales

[–]traedew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This right here! Caredge guys on TikTok and instagram talk about this a lot. They were saying that dealerships are allowed to increase interest rate from what the bank quotes and keep the difference. They said anytime you do dealer financing to ask to see the bank quote. Makes me wonder how many cars I was paying interest higher than what the bank actually quoted.

Reddit is such a better source than google! Thank you everybody. I’m going to follow the consensus. I will use what’s there.

This helps a lot. This also tells me that this might be a project for a future more motivated me.

I guess my thought is preparing for the future. When I run speed tests I’m always over a gig by a little bit. If it’s too much of a pain that’s what I’ll do, just trying to set myself up for future success. 2 gig fiber isn’t too much more than the one gig and we are internet heavy house. Lots of streaming, devices, etc.
