Very slightly in this build but wasn’t at all in my previous

Isn’t the entire point of classic to get off p2w private servers that can and do just shut down randomly destroying your progress?

SOM servers seemed like an absolute godsend.

I’ve played since vanilla and even went back and did all of classic again when it first came out again a few years ago. My only private server experiences were not good by any means.

Is there something I’m missing or is it just about saving the monthly sub cost

This sounds like a fun project to be honest. Are there any risks involved by getting bad content through federation that’s out of your control?

Just a week or so ago I read an article about a guy running a tor exit node personally and being held responsible for the traffic

It’s a fun game when you can play it the way you enjoy. The biggest issue I see is when people try and go beyond (read higher keys or raid difficulty) what they’re willing to put in the effort for. When the skill required doesn’t match the skill someone has it becomes toxic, sometimes it’s warranted.

Not saying people never should push themselves a key higher or a boss further and learn along the way. That’s a great thing. But you don’t try and hit a 90mph fastball before you can hit one off a tee.

Good luck in the search. As odd as it sounds I’d look at guilds that advertise as lgbtq friendly. They’re always good people and chill and accepting whether it’s your skill or something else.

If all else fails there is a discord that I’m sure someone knows the name of that’s a place for non toxic keys where some people try and teach and others learn or just play with like minded people. Hopefully someone can comment the link or name

In my experience which has been since vanilla and still playing the big guilds are just as bad as no guild. Guilds that have multiple teams can just lose people in the shuffle and become a logistical nightmare. If you’re new to raiding look for an AOTC guild that runs 1 team where everyone can get to know each other.

I assume someone reading this won’t know what aotc is - it’s an achievement for killing the final boss of the raid on heroic. It can be done very casually over the course of a tier.

Nobody is going to be able to give you a walkthrough in a post. There are a lot of concepts at play which are all going to require you get on google and start learning. You’ll inevitably run into issues that can be specifically asked about and answered but this is so general how would we even begin to give a walkthrough.

If I had to give a spot to start I’d say look into interacting with the apis (or any apis in general) first in your desired language and then figure out some things you can do with the data you’re getting back from the calls.

Showing the reason you edit a post isn't dumb, its to give a valid reason so people don't think you edited to make someones response look bad. Saying its for context, adding a word or whatever just shows you didn't edit it maliciously.

The whole "edit: thanks for gold and I can't believe my most upvoted comment was about editing!" can go away for sure though

That makes sense if it were to become circular. The way I was thinking of it is like

B gets C's content making C's part of B's. so because C's is a part of B then A gets it.

But I guess C's content isn't really B's its only there through federation? Trying to wrap my head around all this, appreciate the reply.

Where ferret

It’s been a complaint for a long time and I’ve never really hard it addressed. I wouldn’t count on anything soon.

Ffxiv does it pretty well where you can hold your staff or weapon during casting and the animations are a bit more interesting

This was always the hardest part of these types of apps for me... getting people who just want something to work and already have a working thing are pretty impossible to get to swtich

[–] WontonSoup@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yup all makes sense. Appreciate the insight into how things work.

I know its probably frustrating to have people come in and go "well reddit does XYZ" all the time, so its nice to get an explanation. Truthfully, I think a lot of us just needed a little kick start to get off that site to something new.

Itll take some time to get comfy and learn how it all works, but so far things seem great. Enjoy your day.
