Zombros, I just removed a window for my car from a picknpull junkyard and I will just say I am beat, I'll no longer get mad at my little guy getting muscle exertion from stuff like removing windows in cars.

uppy wishes hes was nick

[restive pollen]

once again listening to call me maybe

[opal pecan]

Hey everyone! I’ve got a copy of Project Zomboid that I’d like to gift to someone who hasn’t had the chance to get the game yet—whether it’s through Steam or any other legit way. If you’re interested, let me know, and I’ll add you on steam and send the copy over. Just a little Christmas gesture from me to you! I’m guessing most folks here might already own it, but if not, don’t hesitate to reach out. 🎄

[pseudo fox]

I guess that explains it

[safe fjord]

I already have the game but you’re very kind ❤️

[neat geyser]

Thanks for the offer, bt I already own project zomboid XDD

[summer patrol]

oh my goodness are you okay man?! sorry to hear that

[spare bolt]

🇦🇱

[stone gorge]

🇦🇱

[restive pollen]

bro you're on carousel server? me too lmao

[fringe swan]

Does anyone here know a good set of mods that amplify difficulty like random hordes and bandits that attack you etc

[heady basin]

HUUUAH

[rain mango]

Just finished building my first non cheat base on pz. Its small and it wraps around the house im living in, but its nice.

[fathom igloo]

👀

[rain mango]

Im just looting the PD in rosewood now

SHIT

I left my crowbar at my base 😭

[neat moat]

Hello plums

[safe fjord]

Are you feeling better now missplums?

[neat moat]

Actually yeah hope that nausea and headache went away

[gritty drift]

cute

[rain mango]

I almost just got cooked so badly. I used my shotgun in the PD and a horde came, I had to use every single last bullet until they all died. Then I lowkey got into my truck and rann

[neat moat]

momments you live for in pz

[sly vine]

multiplayer halflife2? how?

[summer patrol]

i do like the feeling of having earned it a bit more with no mods in 42

[rain mango]

im on B41 still, I didnt wanna switch again cause idk how to save my data

[summer patrol]

still

[rain mango]

yeah

[neon bramble]

woh

have you read the book cause PM has a track record for surprising bookreaders

[hexed canopy]

I just went through 7 stages of grief in 10 minutes

[neon bramble]

I read moby dick (canto 5), wuthering heights (canto 6) and Don Quixote (Canto 7) and was pranked on the last two

[hexed canopy]

Shock - I was shocked to die
Denial - games fault
Anger - this game is so bad
Bargaring - "How to save scum"
Depression
And now I'm in acceptance

[neon bramble]

I think the main one they played straight was with roland in Library of Ruina

[hexed canopy]

Do you guys find generator magazines often

Looted all of rosewood and there wasn't one

Oh this is general

[neon bramble]

we talking b42 or b41 cause I havent touched 42 yet

garages and mailboxes are your best bet

[hexed canopy]

Holy shit, I'm a idiot, I was typing in general

Okay, thx

[spare ore]

I think it’s a dumb magazine so I use a mod that gives generator knowledge as a skill

[hexed canopy]

Well I mean how hard can it be

[spare ore]

Meh Still, it should be so it’s only to repair it

[neon bramble]

its the only thing gatekeeping real progression rn so its an acceptable design choice in my eyes

[hexed canopy]

You hook it up, Put in some oil and press a button

Well I'll go to the intended channel now

[thin wedge]

Oil him up

[deft cape]

Ello

[neon bramble]

there's an occupation that lets you use gennies off the bat but its pretty weak anyway

hopefully electrical will be more useful later on

[heavy ivy]

🔵 electrical could do with some more features

🔵 and first aid 😔

[neon bramble]

first aid is fundamentally scuffed with how the zombies work

now if we had more non zombie related injuries and conditions

[heavy ivy]

🔵 eh, yeah zombies are prevention oriented, but other shit like health conditions yeah

[dawn spade]

All they need to do for first aid is make the non zombie health issues actually matter, and reward management

Infected and having a cold are negligable

[neon bramble]

did they touch infections and colds in b42

its going to be mildly annoying if they added muscle strain before messing with infections

[neat moat]

I can't say for certain but I'm pretty sure they didn't touch the medical system at all

The only changes would be the muscle strain and possibly recipes tied to medical

[neon bramble]

ah fuck it imma actually play it now cause the new aim system sounds cool

[bright birch]

well I give up it was hard to survive before for me but it's basically impossible now so you guys have fun I quit

[prisma viper]

mostly running works lol

don't be a hero

[bright birch]

you do everything perfectly we all know this good for you I'm sorry but when I can't even walk out the door without instantly dying in Riverwood that is ridiculous

[icy vigil]

Damn, they added skyrim to the b42?

[heavy ivy]

🔵 hey you, youre finally awake

[icy vigil]

Mmmmmm, iced coffee 🤤

[oblique owl]

I do enjoy some iced coffee from time to time.

[bright birch]

I used to be able to play apocalypse and survive 30 days with some success but now I can't even survive 5 to 10 days without dying it's just suicide to be near any kind of building at all if they're pushing us towards being a recruse or an Outdoorsman it's just not worth playing anymore.. I'm not trying to bash on anybody who still loves this game but it seems like it's only for the hardcore players anymore and that's kind of ridiculous I'm sorry

[heavy ivy]

🔵 we've never been one for coffee but mochas sounds lovely

[icy vigil]

🫂

[icy vigil]

whenever i go to a coffee shop im new to i always order mocha to see if their chocolate or coffee is shit

[heavy ivy]

🔵 you're not supposed to win, focus on little victories, you are not the hero, you are a regular dude/gal/enby pal that is caught in a shitshow

[bright birch]

I'm not trying to be the hero never once tried to be but I'm just trying to get basic resources so I don't starve to death it's harder than it used to be by a lot I'm sorry but that's ridiculous

[young kelp]

there is no hero
there is no cure

there is no main character as we're the side guys that die a dog's death

[oblique owl]

Well, that's the point. You're just a regular dude in a shitshow. You're not really meant to win.

[young kelp]

don't starve mentioned!

[oblique owl]

I found it a bit challenging when I first tried the game but you might just get a little better every run.

[young kelp]

to the point that after learning things, it gets boring

[bright birch]

I'm sorry but one of my first run that I did in this game I survived 3 months by going through the towns and not using a single gun and I did pretty well and now I can't even survive 11 days

[young kelp]

boredom becomes your enemy later in the game

gotta find ways or stupid goals to make it entertaining

[oblique owl]

Yeah, then in the next game I play, I make it slightly more challenging in the sandbox settings.

[young kelp]

horde night was what made mine interesting

[oblique owl]

Or add some mod that makes it more difficult. Not mods that make it easier (there's plenty of those out there)...

[young kelp]

I got 15 days to prepare guns and ammo at the start and then every 10 days after

[bright birch]

why am I not surprised this game just has an audience of hardcore players I knew this was going to be a waste to even say anything at all

[young kelp]

its not about hardcore, there are goals where you collect every plush
or make a castle out of wood

make a car collection

[last spoke]

🟣The defaults in the game are obviously more catered towards those looking for a more gruelling experience, but don't forget there's things like the builder preset and sandbox for you to customise your experience further.

[oblique owl]

You can go into sandbox settings and tweak things to make it a bit easier for you and practice what you're having trouble with.

[young kelp]

gun collector, the decorator, the zombie zoo, the utopia guy

there's a bunch of ways to make it more interesting rather than just playing the game with a blindfold while you're tied up

[icy vigil]

what would pirates usually have?
Tnt? if they owned crates what would they contain

[young kelp]

some just prefer that way

[heavy ivy]

🔵 Suffering has consistently given us the most enjoyable long term playthroughs, it's why A Really CD DA appeals to us so much

[icy vigil]

what would pirates be shipping

[young kelp]

booty

[icy vigil]

what can i add to this pile

[young kelp]

a spare leg

[last spoke]

Three dirty socks

[icy vigil]

[young kelp]

hey, the pegs ain't gonna stay fixed

gotta have a backup

[heavy ivy]

🔵 the hardships make every aspect of the game more enjoyable, and helped us reframe the value of things we thought were worthless before, and forced us to interact with systems we wouldn't have otherwise. I'm not saying CD DA should be the default, heavens no, but it's a strong example of how losing but not yet having lost makes for real fun stories

[young kelp]

also a just in case when one of the crew happens to lose a leg or 2

[icy vigil]

i think a net

[young kelp]

a box of fruits

need vitamin C to keep scurvy at bay

[urban turtle]

How the hell does one deal with insomnia, it’s 3 in the morning and I can’t sleep

[oblique owl]

You're acting like that's late.

[young kelp]

[urban turtle]

I tried going to sleep at 11

[oblique owl]

I don't miss those days at all.

[urban turtle]

Man I don’t want to wake up at 12pm how do I convince my body to fall unconscious

[oblique owl]

I do the night shift man.

[urban turtle]

Ok wait tell me what you do to keep awake (if I do that in reverse then surely that will work)

[oblique owl]

Maybe try watching a movie you've seen multiple times?

[icy vigil]

no

[urban turtle]

Ok how does someone unwatch a movie

[icy vigil]

keep chatting till you crash

never stop the grind

[oblique owl]

So do what Steve does. Great advice...

[safe fjord]

Iced/ hot Chocolate is yum yum too! Love chocolate chip cream in SB. 🩷

[urban turtle]

82% on the phone so I’d probably be awake for another hour

[icy vigil]

dont face palm me acki 🫵

[urban turtle]

I’ll set an alarm for 6am so I get a cosy 2 hours of sleep fr

[oblique owl]

Angry.

[icy vigil]

i do like plain chocolate too, but i also wanna try the coffee

[oblique owl]

But I agree with this.

[icy vigil]

mocha is great. It's actually my very first draw to coffee

[safe fjord]

Is it black coffee?

[icy vigil]

mocha

[oblique owl]

I could go for some chocolate.

[safe fjord]

Yeah mochaaa 💕

[safe fjord]

Like swiss miss hot chocolate with mallows

[oblique owl]

Anyways, I think the only movie I've seen more than 10 times that doesn't put me to sleep is Snatch.

https://tenor.com/view/coming-on-my-way-snatch-london-avi-gif-15961469044644523802

[icy vigil]

edge of tommorrow (because my lil bro likes it so much)

[urban turtle]

The only thing I know about Swiss miss is what that Sam o nella guy said about it

[safe fjord]

What was it?

[urban turtle]

“Swiss miss, INSTANT PISS!”

And also the whole schtick about the bags being a pain in the ass

[icy vigil]

swiss miss is ok

OOOOOOO NOOEE, MY LEG'S DEAD

[upper cradle]

Is there a general support? Having trouble starting the game (first time buyer)

[safe fjord]

You mean chocolate hazelnut?

[urban turtle]

Never had it but again that’s the only thing I’ve heard about Swiss miss

[neat moat]

Never had Swiss miss

[safe fjord]

The name is funny.. i searched on google lols! Its hazel nut chocolate made with real piss hahahha

[urban turtle]

I feel flashbanged by words

I don’t think I was prepared for that information

[dawn spade]

From sam o nella?

[urban turtle]

Yup

[safe fjord]

Sounds like salmonella hahaha

[frosty tulip]

That's the joke

[oblique owl]

One of my old alliance mates really liked that name.

https://zkillboard.com/character/1843701619/

[frosty tulip]

But whatever the hell that chocolate is, doesn't sound nearly as bad as that coffee bean that gets partially digested by cats, psycho shit

Who the hell is drinking that

[neat moat]

omg I heard of that

[frosty tulip]

Bad news, found it already. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kopi_luwak

[neat moat]

and apparently it's a delicacy

[frosty tulip]

A delicacy that I will never ever try

[neat moat]

Understandable

Never was a fan of coffee myself, so I wouldn't be interested either

[frosty tulip]

Oh I've never drank coffee anyway. Made a commitment many years ago for no reason at all to never drink tea or coffee in my life

[neat moat]

no reason? Not the one?

[icy tapir]

Build 42 pog as frig

[frosty tulip]

Legit no reason, I just decided and for some reason I intend to commit to it. But it's fine, I'm more of a tap water fanatic anyway

[neat moat]

Fellow water enjoyer

[thin wedge]

coffee do be poop water

[tepid star]

Oh yeah, the majority of my discord is for various serial novel servers

[tepid star]

yup, they ballooned a couple of spots, im doing great.

[trim vault]

[dawn spade]

Isnt it some rat thing, not a cat

[karmic jetty]

[frosty tulip]

ye some weird looking rodent thingy

[karmic jetty]

poo coffee

[dawn spade]

Pooffee

[tender igloo]

why not lol

[tepid star]

they're part of a large order family that is called the cat-like family, so they're closer to cats than rats, but they aren't either.

[dawn spade]

Ill serve you up one of my shits, cover it in milk. And tell you its a delicacy. Do you want it.

[frosty tulip]

why the fuck would you try coffee, made from coffee beans partially digested by some weird rodent thing

[karmic jetty]

ill be the judge if its catlike

[tender igloo]

mm sure

[tender igloo]

ok but hear me out

[dawn spade]

Dont say it

[toxic relic]

no

[karmic jetty]

poopers

[tender igloo]

can we make turdoffee with these

[toxic relic]

we wont hear you out; im the fart man and even i wont try that coffee

[tender igloo]

who needs soda when you have knoxoffe

yah okay fartass

[dawn spade]

Whats so special about sheep

[toxic relic]

i know that much of human food has made contact with feces and shit however this is farmed poop

[dawn spade]

Why is theres dung. Everything else is dung

[toxic relic]

thats even worse

[tender igloo]

i forget why i put the dung in tehre

[toxic relic]

dung and droppings are different

[dawn spade]

Incorect

[toxic relic]

no its correct

[dawn spade]

Barely correct. And therefor. Idc

[tender igloo]

my immersion

[oblique owl]

Yeah, I'm not trying that coffee either...

[toxic relic]

no its fully correct

[dawn spade]

Its correct in the least interesting way.

[toxic relic]

different animal feces have different names

[dawn spade]

Ye, which is lame. And i dont care

[toxic relic]

dung is moreso used for scat that can be used as manure, ie sheep shit. droppings is a catch all term

[karmic jetty]

poo terminologies

[toxic relic]

indeed

[dawn spade]

Nah, the guy who named shits just was feeling pretentious on a particular day

[tepid star]

fewmets for the win

[toxic relic]

the person who made up the word and the people who used it were likely very poor

and not pretentious

[tepid star]

whats brown, stinky, and sounds like a bell?

[toxic relic]

what

[tepid star]

DUNGGGGGGGG

[dawn spade]

Maybe, i dont feel like explaining myself tho

[toxic relic]

youre funny

[toxic relic]

i can link a poop resource if you want

[karmic jetty]

[dawn spade]

I promise i dont read anything i get linked to.

[toxic relic]

unfortunate

[dawn spade]

Except one article in french about rock climbing

I couldnt read any of the words but there was just barely enough pictures and english numbers for me to get the gist

[toxic relic]

you can translate the page

most browsers have that as an option...

[dawn spade]

Here u go again, overestimating how much effort im willing to put into things

[bright birch]

well I'm done with this game it's like 2 days and build 42 on apocalypse it's ridiculous you guys have fun I'm dumping this game off the edge of a cliff... can't even survive 10 days anymore

[toxic relic]

i underestimated how...perfunctory you are

[dawn spade]

Im fairly confident most of the issues ur having can be sandboxed back out. And u can even just play b41 if you like

[toxic relic]

https://tenor.com/view/yoo-that-crazy-did-i-ask-i-dont-remember-askng-dr-fate-injustice2-gif-16579106

excellent gif use i think

[dawn spade]

The interenet is not a place investing effort.

[toxic relic]

i disagree considering most of my work takes place here

not on discord specifically but research and archival means i need to digitise everything

[bright birch]

yeah in that case why don't I said to everything to zero and then I won't have to worry about anything and who cares that's basically what you're saying

[toxic relic]

that is not was he nor i am saying

[bright birch]

this is what's wrong with The Gaming Community anymore

[dawn spade]

Well yeh but im still pretty sure your a bot.

[toxic relic]

man capitilised it even

its serious

"the gaming community"

[bright birch]

it's called Speech to Text I'm kind of multitasking right now

[thin wedge]

https://tenor.com/view/arlong-society-gamers-gamer-joker-gif-21878613

[toxic relic]

just play space engineers or drg mate

[bright birch]

so basically what you're saying is go f myself right

[frosty tulip]

Or just lower the difficulty if you're having this much issue.

[bright birch]

well at least you're honest I like that

[toxic relic]

im saying im not invested in your gaming experience, if you dont enjoy the game and not interested in catering it to your enjoyment then yes

play something else

[dawn spade]

What im saying is turn off the shitty new fatigue option. Other than that, most of the game plays similarly if not the same as 41

[thin wedge]

Literally dropped pz for palworld

[bright birch]

f that game

[thin wedge]

🗣️ those pals ain't gonna breed themselves

[bright birch]

never played it never planned to

[frosty tulip]

so you're telling Bill to go f himself then? Damn that's pretty mean dude

[toxic relic]

fr bro, thats bullying

[bright birch]

if that's how you want to take it sure

[dawn spade]

https://tenor.com/view/bill-nye-gif-24404275

[bright birch]

I'm sorry but this game is full of tryhards that's literally all I'm hearing right now

[thin wedge]

https://tenor.com/view/bullied-gif-21905156

[frosty tulip]

its not just how I take it, it's how The Gaming Community sees it I'm afraid.

[toxic relic]

this discordia shit it tough man

[frosty tulip]

The Gaming Collective

[toxic relic]

The Gaming Union will hear of your transgressions

[karmic jetty]

what the shrimp did i miss

[bright birch]

nothing really

[thin wedge]

Fr this discordia shit is not for the faint of heart

[frosty tulip]

either way though, just lower the difficulty if you aren't having fun with how difficult it's become, cause why bother playing on higher difficulties if you hate it?

[toxic relic]

fr, im just a man looking for a simple life but these discordia streets are wild

[dawn spade]

The games got alot of try hards for sure.
Theres heaps of casuals.
Im also confused what your issue is tho, all you said is b42 sucks, and then refused to do the things that alleviate the issues that most people are having with 42

[toxic relic]

i dont play the game seriously, i use it for my furry rp server

[thin wedge]

Tryhards in a single player game

[toxic relic]

like a real man

[thin wedge]

💀

[dawn spade]

What do you want bro lol.

You have an issue, wont fix it.
People like the game, thats bad.

[toxic relic]

we're clowning on a random; gatekeeping degeneral like discordia intended

[thin wedge]

@narrow rune Stop being such tryhard ya clown

[oblique owl]

Good internet connection.

[narrow rune]

What did I do this time

[dawn spade]

When do we want it

[thin wedge]

STOP GATEKEEPING THE GAME DIFFCULTLY. WHY YOU SHAMING PPL FOR PLAYING ON LOWER DIFFICULTS

[frosty tulip]

can we stop using such insults towards a fellow member of The Gaming Commune?

[narrow rune]

die

[narrow rune]

Did I join another cult again

[frosty tulip]

we aren't a cult, we're a new-age religious utopian community about gaming

[thin wedge]

Gamers should stay oppressed. They deserve no rights

[narrow rune]

A cult

[thin wedge]

The toe cult

[dawn spade]

@plush cobalt

[karmic jetty]

why did u do that

[dawn spade]

Feet mentioned

[thin wedge]

Hes the leader of feet cult

[karmic jetty]

why did u summon the forbidden one

[plush cobalt]

Who dares disturb my slumber.

[bronze moat]

3rd Person Perspective Demo. Current game version (2.2).

[thin wedge]

He had the cards. Chill out fam there no tournament rules

Pot of greed isnt banned here

[oblique owl]

Hi Omar. Moe thinks this is a cult.

[dawn spade]

Dude yu gi ohs such a troll company

[plush cobalt]

Cult? No, surely not

[thin wedge]

makes card
bans card in tourney

[dawn spade]

Stop releasing pot of greed. Its bm to release a card you know full well is going to get banned

[thin wedge]

How tf they make any money. Yugioh and MTG

[bright birch]

customization is not the solution in that case basically every game might as well not even have an easy mode a hard mode or anything because customization should be the default

[thin wedge]

[karmic jetty]

is cardboard crack joe

[frosty tulip]

just play on builder dude

[thin wedge]

yus

https://tenor.com/view/drywall-garfield-gif-20108549

[dawn spade]

Customisation is too much power for most games

[bright birch]

I'm not even surprised at this point this game is full of tryhards who literally lived to only play this game and nothing else

[dawn spade]

Imagine god of war but u had to spend 25 minutes looking through the options before you could start playing

[karmic jetty]

addicts

check thy neighbours and see if they have a morbillion hours

[dawn spade]

But this games a sandbox. And its meant to be played quite long term, like, theoretically you could just chill in a world forever if your skilled, and dont get bored.

[frosty tulip]

dude is that as sad as getting this mad that people like a game you don't like anymore? If you don't like it, why play it anymore, there's other games

[karmic jetty]

games infinite games but no games

[thin wedge]

Literally @tender igloo

biggest tryhard here.

[frosty tulip]

don't look at my hours on steam for my top 5 games good god

lets just say it bad.

[karmic jetty]

ur a ga*mer

[frosty tulip]

damn right, I'm a member of The Gaming Community.

[thin wedge]

g*mer

[bright birch]

I can at least now know why people said this game is not new player friendly and why I would never recommend it to anybody have fun

[dawn spade]

Goomer

[karmic jetty]

NO gooming allowed

[frosty tulip]

dude you came in here instantly getting mad at people for having fun with the game when you weren't, no wonder people are gonna take the piss.

[thin wedge]

STOP HAVING FUN

[karmic jetty]

bro is the grinch

[frosty tulip]

no fun allowed

Get with the new policy guys, come on.

[dawn spade]

Theres a lot of youtube vids that are helpful. Its a broad game, no one particularly feels like holding your hand. Also this is gen chat. Most of us dont even play the shitty game any more.

[karmic jetty]

snitch

i love zomboi i love zomboi!!!

[frosty tulip]

I play it to make myself suffer, classic zomboi shenanigans

[bright birch]

literally the only thing I'm hearing from the zomboid community is a plan easy mode or go away got it I understood

because if I have to look up YouTube videos to play a game that tells me there's something wrong with the game

[dawn spade]

When i play i set it up a super easy world, give myself really high stats, turn the pop way up, and then go bonking. Abundant weapons, abundant food.

[karmic jetty]

[frosty tulip]

Easy modes exist for a reason, if you find the game too difficult to the point of being unfun, play on the easier modes, what's the issue?

They're there for a reason.

[bright birch]

the fact that I played most games on hard mode tell you everything

[karmic jetty]

dood wants to rawdawg the game but complains when skill issue

[oblique owl]

There's always going to be a few like that, but play the game however you damn well please.

[frosty tulip]

must have been some super easy games you played on hard mode then

[dawn spade]

Games hard, play easy mode, turn dificulty up as you get more confident

[bright birch]

you know what I've realized from all this conversation is that basically what you're saying is do whatever we don't care and the problems can keep persisting and the game can suffer for it that's what I'm hearing

[karmic jetty]

????

[frosty tulip]

or just play the easier difficulties like we're suggesting

[thin wedge]

welcome to discordia

[dawn spade]

Well the things your calling issues are what most people are here for.

[frosty tulip]

This is literally a you issue, you need to play the hardest difficulty in every game for your ego right? So even if a game is unfun due to how difficult it is, you'll destroy your enjoyement of that game over it? That's sad.

[thin wedge]

Bro thinks hes eduard

i wonder if hes even playing b42

[bright birch]

do you mean unstable yes

[thin wedge]

@tender igloo How is eduard doing in B42

[dawn spade]

If you call out an actual issue like the fact that zombies sometimes just straight up cheat, and hit you due to wonky hit boxes. Sure, ur right and it sucks. Fix it.

[frosty tulip]

I won't deny b42 has plenty of issues with balancing 100%, just came to uinstable.

[dawn spade]

But u havent actually said anything your struggling with. Ur just saying your bad and blaming us.

[thin wedge]

ahh but see they play other games on hard mode so its defo community and game fault

[bright birch]

that is not what I'm getting at

[frosty tulip]

my main struggle is financing my dudes cigarette addiction, it getting baddd

[bright birch]

who even takes that trait it's fucking trash now

[frosty tulip]

I take it cause I like suffering.

[dawn spade]

Smoker still is op

[bright birch]

fair enough

[frosty tulip]

And tbh I'm meming a bit here, it actually isn't that bad if you just rummage through peoples glove compartments for packs of ciggies

[dawn spade]

If smoker costed one point rather than giving 2 id still take it

[karmic jetty]

for sp smoker is a non issue

[frosty tulip]

I take it for the vibe mainly tbh, gotta be that cool smoker slowly dying from lung cancer.

[bright birch]

my problem with smoker is you can't ever get over it even if it takes you 3 months you can't even get over it that's what the part of me or to do with

and being somebody who quit it's an irritation

[dawn spade]

I dont want to get overit. It cures unhappiness for litterally free

[frosty tulip]

it is great for curing unhappiness, sort of a benefit tbh. I don't wanna quit

[thin wedge]

The disco elysium grindset

Addictions are cool. 🗣️

[frosty tulip]

damn right, smoking gives me boosts to my stats

[bright birch]

okay you want to know what my problem is currently with billed 42 is the zombies are too damn dense within the first two days and it would in 10 days they're too damn dense and they're impossible to deal with because with apocalypse mode you can't find it any weapon I'm sorry to say but chair legs should be available

[karmic jetty]

gambling addict trait when??? whats the point of all the scratch offs

[thin wedge]

to be the 5% NEVER GIVE UP

[frosty tulip]

That's a valid issue, a lot of the spawning in some areas can be super fucked. But tbh, it really isn't that hard to find a half-decent weapon.

[dawn spade]

Chair legs should be available, i never considered that.

[thin wedge]

[karmic jetty]

zomboi peak gameplay is just walking around kiting zombas

[thin wedge]

Or wrapping rags around broken glasses without a skill mag

[bright birch]

my problem is between houses it seems like every spot I've gotten is being impossible and the only setting I've changed is that spawning is set to zero

[frosty tulip]

Even the suburbs? Cause the population in the suburban areas isn't as bad as it was.

[tender igloo]

whots eduard

[thin wedge]

YOU FORGOT the guy who complains about everything is pz. He was your best friend

[dawn spade]

Yeh, they changed the pop density, its more town focused. So scavenging on the outside of town is a decent bit safer now.

The thing you have to keep in mind with 42, just all the way around. Is that the build was very focused on slowing down the way people play.

Fatigue makes u pick less and smaller fights, denser inner town makes u scavenge slower, rather than having everything u could ever want in a week.

[thin wedge]

He had the furry fox wolf profile thingy

[frosty tulip]

you mean esmund?

[karmic jetty]

joe literally forgor

[thin wedge]

i wish they didn't ban him for B42

[dawn spade]

Trash dilutes the item pool, meaning ur less likely to get good stuff

[frosty tulip]

ye ngl idk who the fuck eduardo is tbh.

[karmic jetty]

who the FRICK is eduard lmaoooo

[tender igloo]

im on steamforums daily , thats like everyday and everyone

i cant remember the cry cries

[thin wedge]

How many hours does he even have

[frosty tulip]

did you mistakenly call esmund eduard or is this some random guy that only you've heard of and you're making up lore for?

[karmic jetty]

joe is winging it confirmed

[bright birch]

thin skinned and reluctant fighter and weak stomach are literally the only negative traits I'm taking and yet for some reason I'm getting absolutely destroyed every time I walk out of the house practically

[thin wedge]

probably. Can we make an eduard here

[frosty tulip]

we'll just make shit up and say Esmund was actually Eduard.

[karmic jetty]

manifest a nonexisting genchatter for the funni

[dawn spade]

Yeh thats wild. Im taking thin skinned and then dying. Crazy

[tender igloo]

asmund? lol

[frosty tulip]

tbh I don't remember Eduard complaining about pz that much, it was more him just freaking the fuck out whenever anybody tried to help him with tech issues and pissing off the entire chat

[tender igloo]

err esmund lmao

[karmic jetty]

discordia was more heated back then yet no slow mode

FREE US RAHHH

[tender igloo]

"great"

[frosty tulip]

no, we took normal mode for granted, we've been made to suffer with slow mode for our sins.

[karmic jetty]

we must sacrifice puppers to appease the lords above

[restive pollen]

Omg I forgot about him

[frosty tulip]

legit any tech support question you'd see that guy asking would result in him yelling at people that he didn't actually ask for help and resulted in some massive flame-war

[bright birch]

[neon bramble]

I thought esmund yelled at people when they ask whats wrong with him

[tender igloo]

yeah i remember lol , i felt bad for him

[bright birch]

why am I not surprised everything I say just gets twisted I should just shoot myself why is that not option

[frosty tulip]

they'd yell at people for various things, the tech support was one of the main ones.

[restive pollen]

Esmund was like so aggressive to everyone lmao

[frosty tulip]

This isn't about you, this is about some guy called Esmund

[bright birch]

it feels like it's about me

[karmic jetty]

they complain about stuff but gets pissed when ppl ask or try to help

[frosty tulip]

no, this is literally a different guy, trust me

[neon bramble]

I remember when I was new to the server and was aggressive to people I deemed cowardly

[bright birch]

my apologies

[thin wedge]

That ain't me

[neon bramble]

I still am tbh

[tender igloo]

no , its someone that isnt here anymore

[frosty tulip]

Either way, we agree with quite a lot that you're saying, it's likely gonna get fixed up in patches since this is early unstable.

[tender igloo]

yeah it is lol

[restive pollen]

[frosty tulip]

Also if you wanna talk more about the game itself, #pz_b42_chat is the better place, that chat is just for zomboid only, so you might get better help there.

[karmic jetty]

SHUSH BUB NO SPOILERS

[neon bramble]

loving the new aiming so far which is neato

[restive pollen]

The main character locked in this season holy moly is all I’ll say

[frosty tulip]

you test out the insane lighting yet? Go check out spiffo's at night, looks sick

[neon bramble]

I spawned with a ton of ammo cause I wanted to go back to playing something else

[neon bramble]

maybe when I do a more normal run

[bright birch]

my problem with that is no one ever says anything to me I've been playing for almost 2 years and it's the first time I've said anything since this build has come out because it's so much of a frustration

[neon bramble]

personally I dont want to touch the game too much in early b42 rollout

[karmic jetty]

i only tried for a short time bcs sp zomboi is too boring

[tender igloo]

yah guns one of my fav things in 42

[neon bramble]

this too

are we getting predators?

[karmic jetty]

zombears

[frosty tulip]

Well yeah but this was bound to happen trust me. I've been playing PZ for years. When b41 came out, we were completely fucked up by the massive difficulty spike, but you eventually got used to it.

[neon bramble]

I might try my hand at making special zed mods if we get hostile animals

kinda miss dead frontier now

[frosty tulip]

yooo dude I used to play the shit out of dead frontier years ago

[thin wedge]

Damn if they thought this chat was bad

[neon bramble]

I'm used to being in eternal fear of being oneshotted by something fast and angry that normal fast shamblers make me 🥱

[tender igloo]

i die a lot and build 42 really was a learnin curve at first for the first 100 deaths lol

[neon bramble]

its funny how far you can go if you've the stomach for risk

[bright birch]

I'm sorry to say but my skills in real life do not compare to what this game wants you to sacrifice and return I do not have half of the issues this game even gives you an option and it's f ridiculous

[neon bramble]

I went to death row ASAP for quick bucks and an elevated heart rate

[thin wedge]

Im waiting for the rest of the rollout fr. Gonna let the dev cook it some more

[stiff salmon]

holy shit that scared me

[bright birch]

maybe I'm unique but I don't understand how most people do not have mechanical skills building skills electronic over skills how do you people not live with any of these

[restive pollen]

Have you watched the new episode of creature commandos? I haven’t I’m too traumatised from ep 3

[frosty tulip]

dude I'd just recommend putting the game down for a while and coming back later. B42 is super early unstable, so it's going to get tons of patches, plenty of those would be addressing the balancing, making it less frustrating.

[neon bramble]

I ignore most base skills in general

[karmic jetty]

yups i always watch when it drops so good

[thin wedge]

[neon bramble]

zamboni is mostly about putting myself in dumb situations and surviving for me

[stiff salmon]

im not even joking, i Opened this chat on my phone and i legitametly flinched. this fucking foul beast

[thin wedge]

Say it and im drawing you pregnant

[frosty tulip]

I think I quit before that came out? Cause I only remember playing around when Secronom showed up and that was the fucked place.

[icy vigil]

Joe nuts

[thin wedge]

Okay buddy.

[tender igloo]

Honestly if youre frustrated this early on and its unstable i would just wait until stable because hotfixes are going to break things while other things get fixes and its just going to be a bunch of trial and error and balancing

[thin wedge]

You wait an hour right there

[karmic jetty]

we just talkin in circles

[neon bramble]

ya I dont get why people are so hung up about b42 in its current state

[frosty tulip]

That and I mainly remember back when I was a newbie and running from outpost to fort pastor and getting fucking curbstomped only a few blocks away, it was gut-wrenching for me.

[icy vigil]

Me when post malone

[neon bramble]

it's early rollout and it's the best time to complain about things in a constructive way

[bright birch]

I mean you're correct but the fact the basement should have been added a long time ago irritates me because they should have been in the game a long time ago

[icy vigil]

🫂

[neon bramble]

aka feedback if things dont feel right

[karmic jetty]

now its just ridiculous u can go to pz chat

[tender igloo]

team was much smaller then updates were lot smaller then

i remember when it was just weather that got added lol

[karmic jetty]

le thingie shouldve came le ages ago things are gettin annoying

[frosty tulip]

Ended up quitting DF after a while cause of all the grind. Well the grind wasn't that bad, it was more that it just felt so restrictive because they'd want you to pay for the monthly subscrption so you could loot the better shit.

[neon bramble]

it did feel more p2w later on

[bright birch]

my problem right now is that you can become so exhausted within 10 zombies you can't even run away anymore that's my problem

[thin wedge]

Pupper remembers the dead game when there was silent for the 3d models

[neon bramble]

by the time I got to FP and doding death row runs

[thin wedge]

[frosty tulip]

Yeah but hey, at least I got plenty of fun out of it. Loved it as a kid since it was f2p and I didn't have money.

[bright birch]

I'm sorry to say but certain weapons that are specially knife related should not exhaust your character so much

[neon bramble]

I had the most fun living in precinct occasionally running to FP for cheaper 12ga prices

by the time you hit FP you really want premium to at least pay for ghost ammo

which is essentially an ammo subscription service

[frosty tulip]

What with the muscle strain? Yeah that's probably gonna get addressed more in patches.

[tender igloo]

i have no problems taking out a hoard of zombie with just a wooden mallet, timing between shamblers and shufflers, with and without fences with 0 traits. Did you try changing fatigue? because i think the fatigue nerf is too easy for me personally

also using bushes to slow them down helps thin them out

[neon bramble]

man I felt so good earning a trench coat

[karmic jetty]

muscle strain was never really an issue for me if u pace things out

all i used was a hammer

[neon bramble]

new shotgun? meh, armor that actually works? whatever

[icy vigil]

ZEEROL JUST CALLED YOU OUT ON SKILL ISSUE. GET HER

[tender igloo]

yah i mean i could see it being annoying for higher pop players but i think they just need to compensate by turning the fat down a bit for that

[neon bramble]

sick ass trench coat????? now we're talking

[frosty tulip]

God I just remember how I was such a fuckup and destroyed my first character. I hadn't really played many MMOs or whatever by that point and I was a stupid kid. I ended up spreading my points across the board rather than specializing in certain skills. Plus I chose to specialize in melee, not viable in DF, especially with all the exploding enemies

[neon bramble]

melee is good

its just that it's a secondary weapon generally cause ammo is fuckin expensive

[frosty tulip]

is it good now? Cause all I remember is that there'd be so many zombies you'd struggle to keep up, especially since they'd blow you up..

[neon bramble]

it always was good its just that it wont be your only weapon

if you wanna be a silent looter you're going to want a pistol OR rifle to go with your melee

[frosty tulip]

yeah well dude thats the thing lmao, when I said spread across the board, I meant it. For some reason I kept spreading my points across different gun skills

So I never had good guns, just the melee.

[neon bramble]

yah thats fair you cant use the correct gun for your level

I think I was generally undergeared as well but because I kept driving forward regardless if I just kept getting oneshot

[frosty tulip]

I ended up making a new character and if I remember, I focused on shotties and handguns I think?

[neon bramble]

was rocking the soviet sapper breastplate in fucking precinct 13 cause I cba to grind armor in favor of buying more ammo and weapons

[frosty tulip]

I can just remember how much I fucking hated wraiths

[neon bramble]

u know thinking about it

[karmic jetty]

what game even is this

[frosty tulip]

Dead Frontier, a f2p zombie mmo

[neon bramble]

DF is a very early extraction shooter

I forget did you lose your loot if you die or just money

[frosty tulip]

Eh, I dunno. I guess in some sense but you aren't losing your shit, just a lot of the scavenged money and XP you earned during it

[neon bramble]

oh yeah that

[frosty tulip]

Plus you'd easily be able to get past that by buying those money storage chests that'd keep it safe for ya

[karmic jetty]

really feelin that 10s slowmode rn

[neon bramble]

you also have to spend money to eat and repair armor lmao

[icy vigil]

My head fukin hurts

[neon bramble]

I think I had multiple farmer alts at level 20-30 to feed my main

[karmic jetty]

remove thy head

[bright birch]

you know what whatever you guys a solution it's just customize it but then your criticize later because you did customize it so whatever why am I not surprised this is what the game has become

[icy vigil]

One of my fantasies is actually removing my head and wringing it out like laundry

I think about it often

[frosty tulip]

They aren't saying they reduced the muscle fatigue rate, they're saying they made it more severe.

[tender igloo]

yeah im saying in the meantime until it gets balanced better for default settings have you tried alternative fatigue settings for you , for me i want it harder

[frosty tulip]

Puppers likes suffering apparently

[sterile iris]

Puppers is suffering

[karmic jetty]

MY GUY GET OVER IT
but fr go to pz chat at this point
plus i dont freakin know what u what
is it too hard to pace things out while playing or even have a minute sense of just strategizing?? if u want to have a zombie killing power fantasy without the strain hubbub then go back to b41 and freakin use britas and sht

[neon bramble]

lmao they added new classes too

god I would have liked this, ammo was most of my expenses

[oblique owl]

I remember that game. My uncle tried to get me to play Dead Frontier years ago.

[frosty tulip]

Either way dude, we aren't disagreeing here. We get what you mean about the balancing being wack af for b42. But ya gotta keep in mind this is early unstable, this is bound to get ironed out with patches as b42 progresses.

Trust me, b41 was a balancing nightmare when that came out into early unstable.

[tender igloo]

yeah its gonna be a bumpy road lol and i have a feeling once hotfixes come out more were gonna see more flustered too, i think its pretty fun we get to be apart of unstable

[frosty tulip]

I think I remember going athlete for my guys

[neon bramble]

remember its ok to complain about balance at this stage

as long as you arent a dick about it, it's feedback

[thin wedge]

Puppers please up the XP multiple

[frosty tulip]

Yeah, that's the point of unstable, they see all the negative and positive feedback and change the game based on it.

[tender igloo]

and possibly do it where the devs see it because theyre never going to see it here lol

[neon bramble]

devs released b42 unstable to catch bugs and feel out how the changes work

[tender igloo]

no im playing slow learner

[neon bramble]

I made good money with enjineer

turns out people want frequent repairs in the later areas

who woulda thunk

[frosty tulip]

unless I'm misremembering, I just remember the DF community seeming super chill, you'd easily just get people to go on loot trips or boss hunt with ya

[bright birch]

fine whatever I'm not saying to stop enjoying it but to new players this game needs some help now be honest they don't do something they're going to kill their own game

[thin wedge]

Just look at b41 changealog on the wiki

[frosty tulip]

although that was just my experience which I might be heavily misremembering tbf

[neon bramble]

you're playing b42 unstable

[thin wedge]

Shit is a whole book

[tough geyser]

[tender igloo]

https://tenor.com/view/good-morning-gif-25642725

[bright birch]

yeah most players don't pay attention to that

[tough geyser]

hii

[frosty tulip]

How much would you make per?

[neon bramble]

dont remember but I stopped using my farmer alts for cash by the time I got to precinct 13

[restive pollen]

I don’t think puppers is a mod

[neon bramble]

and I have to eat a lot to keep up with repair orders

[tender igloo]

sorry to say but that is on them , the descriptions are pretty self explanatory if they dont want to go through sandbox settings

[bright birch]

I'll be honest with you the biggest problem with this game since it's release has been the fact that zombie spawn way too dense too early that is the problem

[karmic jetty]

how is the games fault when the player dont READ

[frosty tulip]

Lets be honest, that place, the biker warehouse or whatever, Doug's something, was such a waste of time, not that great of an outpost

[bright birch]

you're not wrong there but they don't make it obvious to you either

[oblique owl]

Plunger over here calling anyone else a pip squeak.

[cosmic jay]

Don’t quit, just play sandbox and tune the game how you want

[karmic jetty]

my game theory rn on why theyre still adamant on not getting to pz chat is they dont want to get dawg on

[heady basin]

getting my character to face the right direction for fishing is painful enough

[frosty tulip]

People were trying to help you, what do you mean.

[neon bramble]

I dont know even how to feel

[cosmic jay]

Cromprehend deez nuts

[restive pollen]

Instagram reels fans are literal demons

[frosty tulip]

Dude we aren't trying to shame you into it. We agree with you about these balancing issues, it's just that if the game is too hard, why not make it easier so you can have fun with it?

[cosmic jay]

[frosty tulip]

Those modes are there for that purpose.

[cosmic jay]

I love that emoji

[restive pollen]

Jerma scares me

[karmic jetty]

HE DOESNT LIKE OPTIONS TARTAN

[tender igloo]

set your ego aside and make the game enjoyable for you , you are completely in control of your pz enviorment

[karmic jetty]

pulling up receipts holy sht

[inner lark]

Listen man real talk we’ve all been there… you just need to learn from your mistakes. Zomboid is all about dying and learning that’s the fun of it

[heady basin]

[quartz plank]

[karmic jetty]

[cosmic jay]

Some fart ass is complaining that they don’t know how to play, so that makes the game bad

[restive pollen]

Not me tho I’m cold so I’m talking about general stuff in general chat cos I’m cool asl

[tender igloo]

no lol he can stay in here

[inner lark]

That’s not what I’m saying dude… you just got to survive. Learn what works and what doesn’t experiment. Use sandbox customize some thing switch some things around

[frosty tulip]

Ok guys, lets just stop feeding into the bait, it's clear now that this guy is super into humiliation and wants people to make fun of em.

[quartz plank]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-gif-17216903551271031476

[icy vigil]

O shit its echo clone

[tender igloo]

[cosmic jay]

I’m the master at baiting tho

[quartz plank]

[oblique owl]

Yeah. It's a fake Echo.

[heady basin]

[restive pollen]

Nah if u be arguing about pz get out, Zeerol had the right idea 😔

[inner lark]

[cosmic jay]

Hassle deez

[sterile iris]

Man puppers is so whack

[silk parrot]

[inner lark]

I’m the cool one brother…

[restive pollen]

Idk what’s prompted this but I totally agree for no other reason than I’m a hater

[frosty tulip]

[quartz plank]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-gif-17216903551271031476

[cosmic jay]

Chief chief, you have message on the farsqueaker!

[oblique owl]

https://tenor.com/view/electroboom-gif-15202334593336189314

[tender igloo]

LOL

[frosty tulip]

makes sense since of how wacky rat kings are.

[heady basin]

this seems to be the motto of this server ngl

[restive pollen]

Puppers has me blocked because I’m not straight 😔

[frosty tulip]

actually a terrifying thing, I feel bad for those poor rats lol

[cosmic jay]

Rats aren’t people?

[frosty tulip]

They don't live for a very long after a rat king forms.

[silk parrot]

how dare my character get sad after eating that masterpiece

[restive pollen]

Oh yeah ratkings seem horrible for the rats

[tender igloo]

YOU ATE IT?!

[heady basin]

also there’s some people online i’ve never met before so hello to you strangers

[silk parrot]

duh

[inner lark]

Based

[frosty tulip]

well yeah, you're fucked. You can't feed yourself and also the stress of being stuck together probably worsens it.

[cosmic jay]

Hi

[tender igloo]

YOU ATE RAT KING?! lol

[heady basin]

gday

[frosty tulip]

Like I'm pretty sure a rat king is super rare. A rat king where the rats are still alive . Even more so

[restive pollen]

Wait are there ratkings in pz is that what we’re talking about?

[bright birch]

you know what whatever I've watched I don't know how many tutorials at this point experienced I don't know how much shit and I just couldn't care anymore you're getting what you wanted the problem is going away just like a lot of the new players they don't care because too ridiculous

[frosty tulip]

Yeah there's a rare rat-king in pz

[silk parrot]

they are rare?

[bright birch]

if you're having fun with the game have fun but don't bitch because there's no new players coming in

[cosmic jay]

I can’t change my nickname in this surveillancer

[silk parrot]

ive found like 3

[restive pollen]

Ah ok I thought we were actually talking about a general topic in general instead of just pz for once

[frosty tulip]

I'd imagine they should be unless they scuffed the spawn rate of em, cause it'd be weird to find that many

[karmic jetty]

drinkin cold woter i think im chill now

[frosty tulip]

Ok well Knox Country is the rat king hot spot of North America apparently.

[restive pollen]

I got creeped out glad to hear degen chat is still chugging along

[heady basin]

i wouldn’t continue engaging with the server for now, not until everyone’s calmed down a bit

this server tends to have a gang mentality

[silk parrot]

anybody know why my save is now randomly refreshing everything but my character and its inventory?

[cosmic jay]

Also literally #pz_b42_chat

[karmic jetty]

DID U MISS OUT ON THE SAGA

[tender igloo]

do you want help or not?

[karmic jetty]

we HELPED we AGREED he straights up ignore them

[frosty tulip]

Dude this guy has been baiting people in to arguing with them for ages, twisting peoples words whenever they just try and help.

[restive pollen]

Zeerol is caught up in her sickening bloodlust

[cosmic jay]

This place isn’t zomboid, this is taco town, ok?

[heady basin]

yes i just got here and i am treating the situation with neutrality like a third-party should

[inner lark]

I haven’t said anything to you personally. But I feel your pain of dying. Yesterday I accidentally ran into a horde and god swarmed. It’s all about how you take the experience and learn from it. A negative mindset hinders progress. I’m sure one day you’ll become a zomboid master you got this king!

[frosty tulip]

or maybe just say nothing if you have zero context.

[karmic jetty]

look it up and all he wants is to fish attention
blud gets none in pz chat so he keeps returning here

[polar kernel]

im being made fun of by all my friends for this :(

[neon bramble]

the only thing ticking me off is the non-pz channel is now pz as well

[cosmic jay]

I have no friends to play this

[restive pollen]

Cool chip play marvel rivals with me

[frosty tulip]

to be fair, this is a genchat and a pzchannel.

[heady basin]

im with you on this 100%

[tender igloo]

this is pz and offtopic lol

[polar kernel]

im playing now

[bright birch]

almost everybody says just the plan easy mode at that point I might as well play in Creative because that's how it is it there's no difference to me at this point

[neon bramble]

mang lemme shitpost in the pz server without talking about pz

[restive pollen]

I got ditched by a crew that were playing all dps

[cosmic jay]

Pretend my status is the screenshot

[polar kernel]

[toxic relic]

[neon bramble]

[tender igloo]

What is wrong with that? I play with those settings?

[restive pollen]

I hate dps players, aside from you cool chip your cool

[frosty tulip]

Dude we've been agreeing with you on so much of the balancing issues, we're just suggesting you lower the difficulty so you can have fun, or put the game down for a while so future 42 patches iron it out and its more balanced and fun.

[inner lark]

Mfer is that turd water?

[thin wedge]

Human soup water

[cosmic jay]

Also why the fuck am I still a plunger

[heady basin]

just back down mate, whatever’s happened here has pissed the server off and you’re only gonna risk moderator intervention

[neon bramble]

xp gain is capped per hour

[karmic jetty]

go ahead then if that helps u enjoy the game
else go away if all u still do is complain and insist on not tweaking the options

[oblique owl]

You're brand new here. Keep yappin'.

[toxic relic]

per min

[cosmic jay]

I’m sick of this shit dawg

[neon bramble]

the ideal is to post a few times every every once and a while

[thin wedge]

Probably that why

[restive pollen]

I flick between magneto, dctr strange, Luna and cloak and dagger but Luna and dr strange are primary

[thin wedge]

low level

[restive pollen]

I have never once played a dps I’m too cool for that

[frosty tulip]

Bud, don't you shit-talk plungers, they're a fine tool, our society would crumble without their invention.

[karmic jetty]

[restive pollen]

Recently a massive decrease in xp gain occurred

[cosmic jay]

Plungers only exist cos of my ass, literally

[frosty tulip]

Bill, are you saying that you think it would be unpleasant to contract Cholera? You weirdo, it's perfectly fine.

[cosmic jay]

We should just spray the sewage on the homeless

[restive pollen]

0 movement lmao

[neon bramble]

yeh nah, now is the great time to talk about the flaws of b42

ofc the key is to not be a cunt about criticism

[oblique owl]

I believe in Zeerol. If anyone can do it, Zeerol can.

[neon bramble]

it's the unstable test branch and the devs are feeling it out like we are

[frosty tulip]

Well yeah it was, it's just that guy spent ages baiting people into arguments whenever they tried to help.

[restive pollen]

Lmao when a non Aussie says cunt it sounds so much more rude

[thin wedge]

i like your thinking silly person. Hey can we get this person an exp boost

[frosty tulip]

Like we were agreeing with em on most of their balancing issues, we were just suggesting temp solutions for the time being.

[neon bramble]

I hang around too many aussies

[heady basin]

as an aussie i agree

[cosmic jay]

[karmic jetty]

what are u implying

[thin wedge]

Literally ragebait

[inner lark]

But yeah it’s probably ragebait

[frosty tulip]

Then they shouldn't bait arguments from randoms online over it, they should put the game down for a while and do something else.

[cosmic jay]

I almost read that as clever use of neurons

[thin wedge]

Bro is literally esmund2

[wraith bolt]

awwwwww spongebob broke his spat...sadness

I find the best way to deal with people who start arguments is be super nice

[cosmic jay]

Spat on that thang

[karmic jetty]

[thin wedge]

well esmund 0.25 no one can match how much of complainer esmund was

[oblique owl]

I was saying something positive about someone here. I was told to be positive, so there we are.

[wraith bolt]

[heady basin]

i complain every day

[inner lark]

Fuck dudes I left my mephiston red open on my desk

[restive pollen]

I remember esmund had a time when he was absolutely railing on me just saying the meanest things because I had previously disagreed but I kept being nice and apologetic he eventually ran out of steam

[cosmic jay]

The only hawk I know is Tony hawk

[neon bramble]

ya'll sure we are thinking about the same esmund

[karmic jetty]

[restive pollen]

[oblique owl]
