Lol yeah i figured it out. They only show respect if you fight their leaders

Also the ancient dragon killed me with its flying fire attack a couple times because i forgot depleting your stamina makes it so you cant run for a couple seconds
Kind of. It's more "if you try to leave the area" will they turn on you.

Sorry that I somehow put my main bracket in the coinflip group too. I have no idea how that happened or how to remove it because espn.com is inscrutable to me.
the espn layout this year is horrendous, we were talking about it in the discord how it apparently just auto adds a bracket you make to each group you join or something if you used the link, you had to do some weird process to get them sorted out.

Thanks espn

I'm always more shocked at just how much crap Ice and Grass are weak to despite how good they are at attacking, and also what Steel is strong against when attacking (like, yes, I get strong versus Fairy because of the whole "can't stand cold iron" but nothing else ever makes sense to me what it hits strong and what resists it.)
Fairy specifically was made to buff steel and poison as attacking types and nerf dragon, I don't think there's much logic behind that one.

It's not so much about missing lore as it is there's basically a lock on the true endgame content unless, as colegreen said, you forge a bond with most of the gods. I definitely had to do some grinding at a certain point because I hadn't been doing that.

as far as gameplay goes, darkness is definitely the most essential investment since as it's been said, mirror is p much your end all be all for upgrades, esp death defiances. Load up on those whenever possible imo.

The other stuff you'll just get as you play but I wouldn't neglect anything, ambrosia and nectar in particular will be helpful in progressing the story at a reasonable manner if you've been gifting it all game.

I'm pretty low key here. I try to respect people I just call them out on double standards and oddities in things they claim which gets some people super mad. Like I'm not saying XIII is virtue signaling as some sort of attack I am saying that because that's literally what he's doing. He's trying to make people feel guilty for telling a troll to stop posting and mocking said troll while simultaneously absolving himself for doing as bad or worse to other posters like MWC.

I honestly don't get how you could ever think I'm a troll if it wasn't "oh no that guy said something I didn't agree with and articulated his point well-- I'm going to pretend he's a troll so I don't have to accept that I might be in the wrong here."

So yeah. Sensitive. And very scary imo.
You aren't low key, you're very high and mighty when you post. You aren't a troll but you think very highly of yourself and assume anyone who sees you differently is a single cell organism.

There was the odd sign that he listened to the posts, but it was all coming through an LMS filter. Like he'd go from referencing youtube randos to like "yeah sorry to mention another 'youtube rando' BUT this thing they said is bad because...". He's unable to move off that topic but showed at least some evidence that he was trying to make his posts fit the audience a bit more. Granted it was wildly unsuccessful and the posts were still all over the place but his posts aren't one completely homogenous blob - there was a kind of progression.
I mean the real solution for him if he truly wants to interact with people is realize that the way he wants to do so, isn't how the rest of the board wants him to do so. So he can either foist his way onto us, or make a sacrifice. If he's trying to have his cake and eat it too then that obv isn't going to fly.

Well firstly I don't think he's "knowingly" shitting up anything. He believes his posts have value and are relevant.

What is or isn't bullying is a fairly subjective line. I can't tell you what point I became comfortable with calling the responses to LMS that, but to me it has to be sustained so it would have been after months or years. What do you think would have to be happening for that to be a word you'd be comfortable using?
At some point the burden is on the individual to realize their posts aren't wanted, even if they believe they have value. No one else does, it's not bullying to tell them so imo. But we're also past the point of "How many times do we have to teach you this lesson old man?" like telling him his posts suck at this point to his face isn't gonna do anything, so I get why you think it's bullying. I don't though, he knows what he's doing.

3% probably sounds about right in my estimation of my time in retail, in terms of negative impression. They are so rare but they really just ruin your day and make your life unreasonably stressful as a result.

I've always felt everyone in the US should spend six months working in retail or food service. You'd never get an asshole customer again.
Honestly people say this all the time but I'm not convinced, instead you'd get a bunch of people who think they now have a right to gripe at people because they had to go through it.

Like what do the bad ones really do though? They are usually there for like 15 mins right?
In fast food context I would say deliberately talking bad about the staff, to the staff, when the staff have done nothing wrong, just because it's not as fast as they'd like.

Or other things the staff don't have any control over, like complaining about prices etc. Find someone who cares or complain to corporate.

I worked fast food as my first job and I def ran into the occasional person who, upon me trying to upsell them as required by my job, would get irate and be like DID I ASK FOR THAT?

I also second the notion that the worst customers make more of an impact than the best.

Isn't that the thing that whats you to go buy a bunch of real Pokemon merch to get codes to get in-game currency, but since they aren't actually selling in-game currency they get to pretend they don't have micro transactions?
You don't have to do that. When I joined they gave me a bunch of legit world championship decks for free.

There are like 3 different types of ingame currency though, but I mean it's standard ftp TCG. You can pay for boons, but you don't have to.
