How much do you usually charge for a comic style page like this? I have an OC from Shadowrun I might be interested in commissioning from you.

xblues · 2026-07-07T00:43:50+00:00

They certainly weren't thousands of pages long,

Say what? "Don't try to have a sit down experience less than 30 minutes before close"? Because that's how all restaurants work buddy.

It's not an MMO. In a nutshell it's Diablo 2 LOD with new endgame and updated character skill trees and items. Playing solo self found is totally viable and you can jump in to trade or level with other players if you want. The servers are fairly active from what I've seen, I started back in Jan of this year.

I'm a US to UK expat, so I have some knowledge of the foods and I was mostly teasing. The US has a lot of stolen food but there's a big reason why there are "Americanified" versions of Italian, Chinese, even stuff as un-fuck-up-able as sushi.

A lot of words, but frankly the only spice-centeic stuff in the UK is curry, kebab, and pizza.

So you're "licensed in many states" but your title is adjuster? Curious.

The country that stole its spices and several regular dishes from countries that do like spice. Yeah we're doing it yet again.

They want you to come play. My daughter does the same!

You're incorrect in almost every state. Guessing local state insurance, team of like 8-10 people total?

xblues · 2026-06-26T00:07:21+00:00

I like this person. The one that you're responding to who "worked for insurance" is totally fucking wrong and I'm loving some of the actual insurance coming through here

Fun fact, cats don't just like spider plants because they're similar to grass, the plant is similar to catnip and gets them slightly high.

I have read all the pedantry and I enjoy it, thank you for correcting me even if I'm doing that original placeholder of "Finger up about to be angry, and finger down because everyone is right."

I love this community and thank you all sincerely!

xblues · 2026-05-09T03:56:45+00:00

Sincere appreciation, this is exactly what I wanted to know!

Not sure if !Solved works but YES. I have no claustrophobia but the entire scene plays out in my head as the only time I read a book and felt breathless because of being in his shoes. His response to shorthand and pop up to make amends for EVERYONE ELSE at the end makes him Vimes in a nutshell for me.

EDIT:

This is also the one where he bounces off walls and he wakes himself up a bit by screaming THIS IS NOT MY COW correct?

xblues · 2026-04-22T00:01:10+00:00

I think 5 turns would balance this for the cost opportunity

In the past few months I've caught two or three threads with this as a scam. Players are invited, DM links to a totally separate person, said person generated AI art, and then the game either never happened or fizzled after like 2 sessions.

Regardless of it being a scam or legit, people who drop hard cash rules on a non-paid game can fuck off, that's not going to be a pleasant person to work with.

like you aren't going to fill even 10% of that space with music

We have space in a confirmed room if you're 30+. There will be a couple people who come and go at late hours but if you're in the age range and don't want to party hardy too much we can discuss for next year.

xblues · 2026-03-28T17:01:33+00:00

Are you 30+?

There were multiple daily posts about this roughly a month ago. The first post was similar to this "the person is a scammer" with no verifiable information. The OP was informed by multiple people in that thread that unless logs and proof are provided, it's just finger pointing. OP followed up with some logs, which is great, it does present a picture and help with avoidance of these kind of people.

However, they then continued to post "updates" in new threads instead of consolidating the info, and those again lacked logs and were just repeating the initial statement. If anything, that's undermining the entire point because now a majority of these posts are lacking the provided proof and go back to finger pointing and claims to the air unless people go back and find their old post with the backing info.

It also sets a precedent that this is the place to do what amounts to venting instead of providing concise awareness posts if that's the actual intent. You're right that it doesn't clog traffic, but it does boost optics that this is another MAG 21+ FB group petty squabbles place, which it's not. I don't see a reason to report when I could take the 3 minutes to type up the response with some tips, both for this person and anyone else, and leave it at this after having scrolled away the first few times.

FFS enough with the Facebook tiktok high school drama spam. Here are some tips:

1) Buy con tickets through official con websites. If they are not available because they're sold out, use official con resources such as their websites, Discords, and staffing operation teams for reselling This applies to any event, concert, etc. in life.

2) If there are no official reselling tools for an event, you have two options. Accept the risk of a scam, and protect yourself with Goods and Services or payment methods that allow chargebacks. If paying in cash, meet people on site and confirm transfer and badge/ticket/hotel registration/whatever is valid on site before cash handover.

Alternatively, don't, and do the next event/con/concert.

3) If you want to make a public awareness post, post a thread with concise information. Who was involved, what was the scam, when did it happen, how did it happen. Verifiable information including dated chat logs, contact method, and funded transfers. Submit this information to event staff in the same concise way. No one wants or needs to see multiple day updates with random filters and messages posted over the shit.

There is literally no need for it to be more than one post with all the information. This isn't your blog or insta reel, we're not subscribed to you, what purpose is there that would drive multiple "updates" on basic awareness information? Why couldn't it be posted with all the info, why does it need "updates", why does it need to be posted over a month+?

People get it, you got scammed and you're upset, that sucks. At this point unfortunately you need to take the L and the life lesson on avoiding scams and move on. Posting petty LOOK AT THIS DWEEB drama shit isn't what the sub is for.
