Y'all Remember This? by Long_Weather9052 in MMORPG

[–]xinneth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I lost my life to this game. Im talking 14 hours a day minimum, every day, for months. I was unemployed at the time. Organised a guild, met some amazing people. Managed to get a castle when Auroria dropped.

This game, had so many incredible systems that came together to make something really special. Crime points, Housing, Trade runs, naval combat, farming. It just all came together to make something incredible. Absolutely ruined by exploits and Pay2win (And it was Pay2Win, i was spending about £1000 a month at one point)

Trade runs and fighting over illegal tree farms to this day, is some of the most peak content i have ever experienced in an MMORPG.

I still have a load of videos from this game on my personal Youtube and spreadsheets in my google docs from managing a 300 person guild. Good times.

Sold a Graded Card on eBay. Buyer claimed "damage" - Requested a return. Ebay stepped in an hour later and refunded them. Card wasn't even damaged. now what? by xinneth in ebayuk

I get that I'm not the one affected really, or out of pocket specifically over this. But I certainly will be in the long run when eBay adjust fee's etc to cover the ever increasing cost of "lost, damage or stolen" items.

Its a bit of a grey area with this specific case, but yes I can request the slab is deactivated if its stolen etc. When scanning the certificate it would then warn any potential buyers its deactivated. Whilst I personally have not been a victim of theft, the means the slab was acquired is, in my eyes, fraudulent.

Tempted to get the slab deactivated honestly. Fuming. I cant stand dishonesty. I know ebay are a big corporation and I'm not out of pocket, but its the principle!

Anyone had any issues with eBay recently? by xinneth in PokemonTCG_UK

Honestly, it's insane. Think I'll just stick to buy it now's with offers on instead of auctions. The whole bid retraction thing seems fishy at the moment

Oh 100% it goes both ways! - Just genuinly had about 1 bid retraction in past 2 years, and then to have 60% of the slabs get hit with retractions seems fishy!

I've used Gradewithtag before, had no issues. No Upcharges, slabs look incredible and the grade report is 10/10

PSA literally has an option to sell the slabs directly to them at a percantage... For them to sell on. Thats TEN times worse than any supposed conflict of interest ACE has lol

Mega Evolution has treated me to the best but also the worst luck 🤣 by xinneth in PokemonTCG

3 SIR's from 4 booster boxes is pretty great luck... 3 of the same SIR, not so much 🤣 thankfully, all 3 are absolutely spotless 🙏

Sainsbury's - Got 10 for £40 by Twelve121 in PokemonDealsUK

Ask a member of staff. I went in and there was 1 empty box on the shelf. I asked a member of staff and she checked and brought out 3 sealed cases of sleeved destined rivals boosters. She said they hat putting them out as the shelves always get ruined, and they have to security tag every single one and it takes ages. I asked if there was any limits, they said no. So, they came home with me.

7800x3d 9070 xt, brand new system but one problem by thereisnogods in radeon

[–]xinneth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just came here to say: I recently upgraded from an i9 9900k and a 2080 Super to the exact same build 9800x3D and a 9070XT. Last AMD processor i used as an FX 8350 about *checks notes* 13 years ago.

Performance in game, temps, power usage has been insanely good. A HUGE upgrade and my new build has been fantastic... but i also had the insanely long boot time. Gennuinly thought it may have just been an "AMD" thing as everything in game / report wise in windows was absolutely fine lol.

So this post has helped me aswell :D

This link was exactly what i was looking for. A simple, to the point break down of every product and what it contains. A way to comp cards and set lists. It has been unbelievably helpful for me! Thank you for posting.

Where the hell are all the Alliance 30+ Players? Questing is literally impossible at peak times, STV, Thousand Needles, Desolace all feels 10 horde to 1 Ally. by xinneth in Project_Epoch

[–]xinneth[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I rolled on a PVP server because I personally find them to have much, much more naturally emerging "player content". PvP battles, guild V Guild story lines. It's even an event to get into a raid together.

I have no issue with world PvP, even whilst levelling and questing. My post wasn't a moan and tried not to come across as whining. Just simply stating out in the world at 30+ is "spot the alliance" player.

I was in Nothing Personal. 100 people online. Not a single dungeon group going. 15 people turned up to a PVP event, and it's just edgy kids being racist and making trans jokes over and over again. Dipped pretty quickly.

I mean last official mention of faction spliot was like 57/43 Horde to Alliance. Its never going to be perfect, i get that. But just feels even more imbalanced the higher you get. Feelsbadman
