Definitely feeling the worst I've ever felt in my entire life on my period. I used to be just a heavy flow kind of gal with minimal cramps and discomfort but over the years that list has grown to include digestion problems, painful bloating, horrible cramps, and I guess today tops it all off with constant nausea.

My annual checkup with my GP is coming up soon and I can't wait to see her for once.

When someone starts openly complaining about how their shit hasn't been sorted yet, like dude you just joined like 30 minutes ago. I'm sorry the staff team has lives? So when people start to complain in the Discord harrying staff, guess what asshole, I'm going to take that much longer to get around it because you made it a point to complain about, when it doesn't need to be. DM me or something when it's been more than 48 hours; then we'll talk.

yeah, i'm on jenova, which is a fairly big server, so hunts get taken out quickly even without people pulling early, which is a big problem on the server.

i've been trying to get some a ranks when i have time since i can solo the arr ones but it's iffy since you're relying on the hunt trackers at best and blind luck at worst. and i get bare scraps off the s ranks, so i've not been bothering with them. but yeah. even if they kept the sb ones where they were hunts only, i would be happy to just. have the option to purchase arr maps in idyllshire and hw maps in rhalgr's reach with my normal poetics in addition to the seals. since the mere thought of just. trying to get all those arr maps alone makes me want to cry. 7 a ranks per map is painful, and i have at least 8 more maps to go in arr alone...



Actually, poetics sounds like a good thing they could implement in 5.0 instead of trying to keep hunts alive and relevant (spoilers: it's still not). Fingers crossed!

i really hate that hunts are the only way to get mount speed increases in xiv

i can never manage to get in on them in time because they're always sniped out so fast and even if i do, i barely get any seals for it. and i find trying to hunt out the a ranks entirely tedious and a waste of time but it's the only way i can manage to actually get seals.

just let me be able to throw my ding dang poetics at it instead, they start gathering up like dust after a certain point anyway, they might as well be able to be a reward for people who reached level 70 and have limited other uses for them

meanwhile, my nooby ass: ... wait... you can get mount speed increases from hunts?!
Yeah this is my one big gripe about it. I suppose you could try to join a Hunt LS on your server and try to do them that way but with everyone on their 70s beating down 2.0 S Ranks like melted cheese it's still a bit difficult if you missed out on the hunting scene back in 2.0 and 3.0 when it was "still kinda not really relevant".

Sometimes when I see complaints made like "the staff team are too (passive) aggressive" I can't but to think like... there's a tone we need to set sometimes to others, that doesn't necessarily extend to our personal opinion or treatment to you or other members. Like if someone's asking about if x & y is okay and it's not, well the staff has to put their foot down and say no. Like, there really isn't a better way around it.

Also, what's with members privately complaining about staff and other members? Can we all grow up and address these issues explicitly to one another? Sometimes it could be a misunderstanding? Attributing someone as being "too passive aggressive" or some other negative connotation without talking it out with them is unfair. Sometimes certain people need to be told what they're doing is making you uncomfortable. Or, ignore and move on.

ATLUS can you please tell us P5R is Persona 5 Racing and give us the racing game we've always wanted

Also a selfish wish that will never be realized, as ATLUS themselves have explicitly stated that they will never do this, but — female protagonist for P5, god and please let us date our social links regardless of gender???

Kuruse Akira/Amamiya Ren are pretty unisexual names, too... gosh I just want a female Joker

I know someone who's Oceania region playing on NA Data Center because of how congested it is on Tonberry (unofficial English-speaking server on Japan DC). Aside from the few hiccups on ping, he's more or less learned his own special timing on AOEs and attacks so it's pretty doable especially if you're coming from the UK!
