    I'm sure this will have something to do with it, but more in the lines of "The sword pierced a leyline that was improsining N'zoth! The barrier has weakened and his influence is spreading!"

    Arkk's Weight Lifting / Fitness Thread

    Just around 1 year on 5/3/1 in the books: Starting Numbers: Squat: 235 1RM Bench: 240 1RM Deadlift: 315 1RM OHP: 135 1RM Current Numbers: Squat: 355 1RM Bench: 300 1RM Deadlift: 435 1RM OHP: 195 1RM I think I'm done trying to push OHP any higher. I've had shoulder issues since I was 23 and...

    Fake boobs don't seem like an issue to me. If my wife suddenly wanted to join a CrossFit gym though.... that's where I'd draw the line.

    Bumping Mics with Jeff Ross and Dave Attell. Only watched the first episode so far but this is hilarious.

    Another week here and gone. My Mythic+ cache has only given me 2 385 azerite pieces (both were shoulders with the same trait) and 1 weapon. I've gotten plenty of cloaks though! I'll be so pretty one day.

    I doubt it. From my perspective the only thing dwarfing the amount of money made via player retention is the size of the egos of those in charge. Many of the changes they made for this expansion don't seem to jive with financial gains, unless you just like to use the lazy "blizzard has the...

    It isn't a question. That type of behavior is a game people play, and men do stupid shit like this too, that they think makes them more intriguing or desirable to opposite sex. Games like these that may have seemed cute or compelling when you were 18 get old very quick. Some people just never...

    It's just a sign of immaturity and a lack of decorum. I don't need that in my life.

    Went into Uldir and got an Archive piece on my DH, figured every 3 bosses I killed would add a stack until I was caught up. Nope, can only get one stack per week. Excellent design decision. More punishment for alts or main swapping, because everyone loved how terrible it was at the beginning of...

    I used to actually give women like this a piece of my mind and have pointless conversations trying to point out there rudeness when things like that happened but it was a fruitless endeavor that only served to upset me more with the nonsensical excuses they would come up with. Now I just remove...

    I 5 box but only to farm or to make WQs more worthwhile. When Legion made everything multitap it made multiboxing to farm very worthwhile and a great time saver. As you said trying to multibox group content is pure anti-social behavior and it's more frustrating than rewarding usually anyway.

    Of course they don't. Why would they move forward with something everyone liked. Gotta go backwards!

    There seems to be a lot of naivete amongst PC gamers as well. Many of them are socially awkward and never expected much of themselves outside of gaming so they are willing to fool themselves into thinking shit jobs like that are "passions" or "following their dreams". I hear it amongst streamers...

    It's too bad that Turkey is such an inferior bird. The one of those I'd look forward to eating is Brutul's smoked turkey, because that's the only way turkey tastes good. I'd even pass on deep/flash fried turkey. Not that you guys look like you did a bad job or anything. Turkey is just kinda meh.

    You would get a lot more job leads if you did. As a software developer you're a fool if you don't have a LinkedIn profile. Though typically you don't find jobs via LinkedIn. Recruiters use it to find you so they can submit you for jobs.

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    Unless you are coding specifically for mathematical or scientific systems I would argue that code is more art than science. CS degrees are not IS degrees, even though both focus around software development.

    I personally have no problem with it at all, it's a service that people obviously want or there would be no demand. It doesn't bother me one bit but a lot of people get offended that it ruins the integrity of the game if you can buy the same gear that they so "painstakingly earned".

    All of the things you listed are things legitimate players do constantly, they are in no way a good metric to use to identify RMT. Selling and carrying are not prohibited and people carry their friends all the time for free, or as others have pointed out, for being twitch subs or donors, etc...

    They do care, and they do ban for selling runs/carries for real money. But he seems to think everyone who sells for real money is unintelligent, spams on the same b.net account they run on, and works out the details in game in various chats leaving an easy to follow trail of breadcrumbs.

    They spam on throwaway or trial accounts that list the website you can buy the run from. There is no interaction in the game at all between the buyer and seller to coordinate the sale. It's all done on third party websites and then you just join the group as you normally would any other group...

    Once the 8.1 leveling changes go live I'll probably start playing more again but even I have stopped doing much of anything. M+ was the only reason I was still actively playing but that became a hassle and a chore as well, especially this past week.

    The Kominsky Method

    I watched this over the weekend. Posted about it in the Netflix Thread but I'll just give my thoughts again here. Alan Arkin and Michael Douglas are great, but for some reason the writers decided this wasn't supposed to be just a comedy. It skirts the line between drama and comedy and suffers...

    I watched The Kominsky Method the other night. I don't get what the show was trying to say/be. It's a mediocre story that mostly goes nowhere, is very grim and strange at certain points for no apparent reason, has characters that are completely meaningless, and is still watchable because it's...

    You already cracked the code even not knowing the specifics of it. If the elementals are there in Silithus at release (and I can't remember if 1.12 had populated Silithus) people will grind them while leveling. This isn't complicated.

    Decided to gear an alt finally, Im impatient so I bought a cheap +10 carry to help get my ilvl up quicker. All leather group. Wouldn't ya know it, an int trinket drops which I can't use (Playing a DH) and 380 warforged warglaives drop that the DH can't trade. What rotten luck.

    They spoke about all the things you mentioned above and are planning to make changes to every one of them. It took them too long and we'll see if they do anything meaningful but they do have plans.

    They have actually been starting to make strides and seem to be actively listening since Blizzcon. I just don't understand why it took them so long.

    This expansion is objectively bad. They did the same thing with this expansion that they did with Cataclysm. Took everything people loved about the previous expansion and iterated on it... regressively.

    I don't think he's trying to say it all tastes the same. He's saying the same thing I am. Once you get to a certain price point you're paying for the name rather than the liquid.

    Whiskey

    Well, the layman probably won't notice much difference between a $120 bottle of whiskey vs an $800 bottle of whiskey or an $80 bottle of wine vs a $200 bottle of wine. The differences in those price ranges are usually subtle and very specific, like you have to be looking for them. Hell, there...
