See the video. The things this does aren't necessary. Counter Strike has anti-cheat and it doesn't require as much permissions, remain always on, or break your game until you reboot if you turn it off.

I should have been more clear: I don't agree with this -or- think it's necessary. What I do think is it was bound to happen eventually and I'm surprised it took this long. It's yet another part of the massive enshittification campaign.

I agree with this in some sense but also... the vast vast majority of people playing league are not professional players and there is no money involved

But it would be very difficult for those poor, itty bitty corporations to have to do more work than just yeeting a mass change into the audience. You want them to pass out tee-shirts when they can just fire them at the crowd with the tee-cannon?

It's scummy and gross, but unfortunately this kind of thing is bound to come hand-in-hand with professional gaming. Once large sums of money start trading hands and reputations are on the line, it gets serious.

How have you survived this far into the Fandomning? lol godspeed, Scotty. Godspeed.

I usually don't bother to tip and just ACH Fandom directly.

I think this is word salad, but I'm not that smart so maybe it will make sense to someone else itt.

No worries

Brotherhood and Brother hood are two very different things.

One is an association, society, or community of people linked by a common interest, religion, or trade, the other is your brother's hood on his hoodie or jacket or other hooded article of clothing or perhaps the hood of his car or the neighborhood where he (your brother) lives.

...? My guy I'm on your side here, why you coming at me?

I'm sure she's got a legal team that threatens anyone who puts her public perception at risk.
Can't have the golden girl going around giving others a reason to air her dirty laundry.

Ace Mos can type how ever Ace Mos wants, it's all sun shine and rain bows here, no sense belly aching.

lol Sango drunk was a trip too. Inuyasha got drunk in the Final Act iirc and was also great.

People still loves it.

Oh, absolutely. We can enjoy shows with bad writing all day, but that doesn't mean the writing is good, it just means we enjoy something with bad writing. Two different things lol

I found this one on reddit. Does this work for you, TC?

also this one:

Uggghhhh that second one is so painful to look at... goddamn it.

You ever feel like the guys who actually knew how to make things are all retiring/moving on and the people inheriting the work have no idea what they're doing?

who said anything about bad writing

If writers can't respect their own lore and settings or timeline (or those same things in a piece of media they are contributing to/adapting, even if not the original writer)... that's bad writing.

I expect teachers to be good at teaching. I expect electricians to be good at electrical work. I expect cooks to be good at cooking. So why can I not expect writers to be good at writing?

Yeah those endings slap. My favorite was Come by Namie Amuro

Also my favorite.

Because of all the romance subplots and the prettyboys, I reckon.

The sequel series is gross and should be forgotten. The character assassination of Sesshomaru was repulsive. I can't say why without spoiling his entire arc for TC though.

It's 167+26 episodes (original run ends at 167, final act was the conclusion that aired later for another 26).

As for if you should watch it... You could do worse. It's cheesy and predictable, but fun and has its charms and lots of that Rumiko Takahashi humor, and while the music's great, you're going to be tired of hearing it after a few seasons and it's not going anywhere. The dub is ok, the sub is decent if you prefer subs (I like it over the dub and I normally try to watch dubs over subs). There's also some filler you can dodge if you lose interest by then, and four movies to check out if you're super into the show.

If you like manga I would honestly recommend the manga over the anime.

Rumiko chose interesting hills to die on. I think she associated pantyshot enjoyers with a certain kind of pervert, which she didn't like. I'd say she considered it more lewd than plain nudity because of the types that take an interest in it.

Anyway, I really wish this series would get a remake or like an Inuyasha Kai, that kind of thing.

I don't mean to pry, Karate guy, but this seems kind of personal for you.
There's nothing wrong with that, just wondering if you have a story to share or anecdotal takeaway?

If I'm off the mark that's fine, am just curious.

I can definitely agree toxic behavior like that has no place in games. It doesn't bother me, because I grew up with it and could care less, but it's not something we should just expect people to get desensitized to instead of correcting it.
The anonymity of online gaming really just brings out the shittiest behavior in some people, and they need to be kept in line or kicked out. Simple as.

I think it was one of the Tenchu games (Tenchu Z?) where holding the stealth button while running just resulted in a slightly slower, more mindful run, and I really, really appreciated that compared to crouch walking everywhere. Crouch walking, especially in armor like in Assassin's Creed, has always looked so dumb to me. It makes sense when next to a short fence you're ducking behind or something like that, but otherwise it just looks goofy.

I think crouching in general should be a context-based action. If you press stealth but you're behind a wall or sneaking up on someone from behind, crouching doesn't make you more stealthy. But if you're in some brush or tall grass, or behind a short fence, absolutely crouch.

Have you tried being attractive? I find that works best

That can be effective, but only if you pair it with not being unattractive.

Star Wars Episode I: The Fandom Menace

And the bartender? Abraham Lincoln. And Kate? Abraham Lincoln. And the officer? Albert Einstein. And Albert Einstein? Abraham Lincoln.

I'm ready to upgrade ('14 Charger) but I can't find anything more modern that doesn't have a tablet built into it. The Charger has one, and I don't like it at all, hated it from day one. The temperature controls are on it, media controls are on it (yet no media controls on the steering??). I don't want to play with a touchscreen while I'm driving. I want to goddamn drive while I'm driving. Give me buttons.

They walk everywhere. Walking is actually pretty good for you.

Sure, they can probably get up to and sustain high speeds in space to travel.
But they can't move short distances so fast the other fighter can't even detect it like in Dragonball.
And those are fighters who've trained to see other fighters who move at those speeds, getting outclassed (Piccolo and Goku).

The Viltrumites wouldn't even see themselves being destroyed.

Fighters in Dragonball were already moving too fast for the naked eye to see, and able to blow up the moon with energy attacks. And those are just humans in the Dragon Universe. Goku as a child was beyond normal human perception in terms of speed, and far beyond the normal human in power. And Raditz completely eclipses him.

Omni-Man also isn't Supes levels of invulnerable - he's shown taking damage often enough from other characters, and his speed feats, etc. are nothing special. So your average Viltrumite is, compared to a Saiyan, not very fast... and while they're pretty strong and could deal some damage, it would be nowhere near enough to close the deal.

Saiyans stomp, and they stomp hard. The average Saiyan outclasses the top Viltrumite in terms of both speed and power. The Viltrumites may be a threat in Invincible, but most characters in Invincible aren't anything special. Viltrumites are, for example, FAR weaker than the Kryptonians they emulate.

Saiyans don't even need to bring Oozaru into the equation for the win.

Me so [redacted]

The internet's just getting suckier and suckier. Is this the point where the roller coaster finally tipped over the peak and now we're just racing downhill at breakneck speeds?

IN BAD FAITH

D-did I just see a buttcheeks? Oh, phooey. How could the mods let this happen to me? I was doing so good, but now that Fandom knows I've seen a buttcheeks, they'll never trust me again. I can feel my good faith poster status slipping away. That's...

That's...

THAT'S ME IN THE CORNER
That's me in the spot light
Losing trust from Fandom
Trying to keep my account
And I don't know if I can do it

Oh no I've seen too much
I saw an illegal butt

That thing is a Pokemon from 1999.
How it became the lesbian mascot is still unclear.
It is a genderless legendary beast.

Is the whole point the fact he signed his name on a letter where he said he doesn't sign autographs?

yes. nowadays it's a pretty stale joke, but it was probably pretty fresh in 1983

I can deal with most but the "ultra-moe" voice that some characters have is super difficult to power through. This is actually from a game, but it's the worst example I can think of and always springs to mind:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hfX37R0O4a8

Whenever a character with this voice checks in, it's time to check out. Nobody sounds like this naturally, in the history of forever, including today. It's a voice that only exists in anime.

Sorry, I had the bad faith user block toggled on and the board was just a blank topic list. We're back in business now.

At the time of this reporting, there was no evidence to suggest these animated programs were intentionally outsourced to North Korea.
