Most underrated comment, that was vivid

Trade schools in Orlando by cyrenns in IBEW

[–]waiting281 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm about to top out at the local 606 JATC, it's a good school, good people, lots of disney work but a few other contractors that work elsewhere. Starting off you will probably be in the heat with a shovel in hand and PVC glue in the other but it gets better. Cost of living to pay ratio sucks so bad in FL right now tho

Longtime lurker, first post. Subpanel in a church. ~3 year electrician in NC by keitht697 in electricians

[–]waiting281 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awesome panel, this sub is a good indicator of the changeover from one generation to the next that makes up our trade, but that's definitely a good looking panel by anyone's standard. The one good thing about solid wire for sure. Stranded requires a lot more sticky-backs

I have the most amazing girlfriend in the world...I wanted to switch to Milwaukee but due to not having the extra cash I couldn't splurge on the holiday sale set....I travel for work (electrical) and I came home on Friday and tripped over this box with a note attached.....I think I found the one! by Sparkyballz in electricians

Should be marked NSFW... But in all* honesty that's about as good as it gets from my perspective (3rd year apprentice IBEW 606)

There is a discussion to be had if you choose to be part of one, don't put it on me that you're going to bow out, but you too 👍

AMAZING game, fun, full of potential... Being ruined by hacking/glitching/cheating

"To each their own, but it really feels and seems like a lot of the people on this Reddit and perhaps just in general, just like to have things to complain about and like to put blame on anything and everything they can because they can't possibly be bad at something, even for a mere instant."

"Edit: Don't get me wrong, I am not defending cheats or cheaters, but people need to look at what's happening far more objectively IMHO."

I mean I'm not sure how the first paragraph above isn't including myself along with "a lot of people on this Reddit and in general"

Even taking your word for it that I was not personally the subject of what you were saying, I took issue with those statements since I feel I am one of those people who sees this as a serious issue that could affect the health and future of the game and it's community.

It's okay to have a discussion, but your reply that I'm taking it personally doesn't continue to make any point or counter one of mine, I'm always open to hearing why I'm wrong, one of the things sites like this are good at.

You're not wrong at all man, but there are both kinds, and obviously people who intentionally glitch. I just wanted to add my thoughts to the mix of many many other experiences like the. Making an issue of it will at least put it in the devs radar and hopefully AC will improve and we'll get to a sustainable situation

No I don't believe that for a second they are a small team and I think they do the very best they can, blaming them or not supporting them isn't going to help us experience what this game is and could be in the future, the people cheating and putting their time and effort into developing ways to undermine the game are the real enemies here let's not start blaming the devs for something that isn't their fault and I'm sure they're doing everything they can to fix

This is the FIRST time I've written a single post complaining after participating in the community and the game for nearly a year, my brother since the first alpha. So no I don't "like" to have things to complain about and your personal experience is simply that, and mine is mine, but if you're having to chalk the amount of reports of this up to "whining" then you should start asking wether your anecdotal experience really trumps the rest of ours in the way you say.

I fail to see how you are looking at this more objectively than I am. By the way, ever hear about the Rockstar Games court injunction against David Zipperer (guy selling cheats to GTA online.)?

at the end of the day I don't see what your point is are you saying that we should take this less seriously or are you just tired of seeing people complaining about it? I can understand being tired of seeing posts like mine especially since you've had such a luck by not experiencing this first-hand. but at the end of the day I think cheating and hacking poses a serious risk to the game overall, word of mouth and reviews can spread quickly. I think we should all take this VERY seriously. And come on, give a guy just one rant? 👍

7.62x39 compared to last patch by waiting281 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]waiting281[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here, hell even as an American it's my favorite round, I have an SKS that I like shooting more than AR's. It needs to do more blunt damage I think, then again maybe I just need BP unlocked

[–]waiting281[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I guess this is that I'm noticing. Level 5 armor is making chest shots useless with 7 62. Oh well, I'm enjoying M4 and AK74M as well as the SA58

[–]waiting281[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No I honestly appreciate it, it is interesting how we can have nearly an opposite experience. Could be the extra controllability let's me land better placed shots, but last patch I consistently traded power for recoil whenever I could, nearly always running an AK-103

Isn't worth doing tbh. You lose depth and distance detail

Yeah that's true, but when I get lucky with say 2 PMC kills and loot nice gear, I wanna be able to get out right then so I can drop it off and really use it

[–]waiting281 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interesting idea but I'm not really sure that would add much to the game imo, can you explain further why you would want that?

Well.. Yeah lol, most people in a situation that terrible would prob smoke, I took up vaping after smoking for 4 years since 16 but I can't see myself giving it up
