It almost feels like some fever dream, but does any one remember late SoO, when Flex Raids were introduced? And you could LIST YOURSELF in a listing, and people could find you if they needed you?
Why did they remove that aspect of Group forming? It seemed to give additional power to the individual, giving us a place for groups to find us. Now we have to look for groups that need us.
I remember when it came out, I wouldn’t look for groups very much. I would list my Druid as able to Tank or Heal or RDPS, and get tons of whispers and pick and choose.
I just don’t know why they removed that part of it, or didn’t carry it over.
I’m sitting here looking for a pug on my Lock, wishing I could just list myself as a Lock, and probably get invites from groups needing a warlock.
It just seemed like it helped groups find people, as well as people find groups. I miss it still. It almost seems intentional and malevolent, like Blizzard felt it gave individuals too much flexibility in group forming.

Can any of you imagine someone getting frustrated with a Mind Controlled Person’s Actions and forcing their own more effectively hidden Mind Control Chip on them to make them repent?
Would such an action create a buried second personality embodying the first chip screaming inside the host’s brain?
On the subject of inserting something into someone else I have considered the following possibility for Umineko When They Cry’s Rokkenjima Catbox:
Spoilers for the Rokkenjima Massacre
The Winchester Bullets are the Souls of People put into stasis and anyone “killed” with a Winchester Bullet in Umineko is merely paralyzed until Kinzo/Erika Furudo/Bernkastel revives on the 9th Twilight and turns them into a Winchester Bullet to fire into the Higurashi When They Cry Cast Members altering their personalities in the process.
In Sotsu Lambdadelta calls dibs on Sayo/Shannon due to her name meaning 34 and fires her into Satoko.
In Meguri Bernkastel has already fired a Rika into Satoko so Lambdadelta doesn’t do that but instead fires a killing Winchester Bullet into Rika(whom Lambdadelta fired Satoko into) whenever she fails to bring Satoko to St. Lucia allowing Bernkastel to eventually pick up Kanon/Yoshiya(16) and fire him into Satoko herself.
Such irony that Lambdadelta and Bernkastel both have dibs on Beatrice and use her to make their Satoko into a Villain.
Such irony that Lambdadelta’s study of the matter made her realize that the selection process for Game Pieces was itself a Game.
Furthermore Lion Ushiromiya is now possessed by Chiyo Kumasawa/Beatrice Castiglioni/Hanyuu who was fired from a Winchester as a Bullet by Featherine/Kyrie Ushiromiya after she got hit by the same bullet after Eva/Hanyuu’s Negative Emotion Amalgam shot at her with a Winchester.
Eva got the bullet from the Kyrie Ushiromiya/Eua of the original Rokkenjima Massacre Timeline while also firing the paralysis Bullet at her. Eua was frozen until Bernkastel revived and picked her up firing her into Hanyuu’s corpse.
That sounds like an ethical mess of consent and right to bodily autonomy that could only fly in an anime.
Star Wars’s Clone Troopers and the entire Cast of Naruto except for Boruto, Kawaki, Eida, Sarada, Naruto and Hinata have all been brainwashed into doing something they normally wouldn’t do and refuse to listen to reason due to the Brainwashing.
They were not given consent for this.
There are only at least 2 ways to undo the brainwashing: either by removing the source of the brainwashing(Mind Control Chip for the Clone Troopers and the active Reality Warping for the Naruto Cast) or by establishing a counter-brainwashing.
The latter might be the most dangerous as the strain might be fatal if done incorrectly especially if the Mind Control Chip is located in a part of the brain where it frying due to the strain of not being able to follow it’s function is fatal.

Atleast it’s not too long through. Most Folks who left the WoW Community changed and have grudges against you even if you haven’t talked to them in years since BFA or SL. Specially on Twitter.
Honestly does kind of suck. That stuff haunts you for the rest of your life even if you do move on from it. Sometimes it’s hard to move on from some of actions that happened and that person and individual won’t want anything to do with you again. I’m glad you are turning yourself around and road to redemption will be long and hopefully someday things might turn out ok or for better when forgiveness is accepted.
I may have been forgiven atleast much but small few people who used to be or is probably within the community still bear a grudge against me. Atleast on Twitter even if I had left it behind me. I don’t speak for anyone within the Community. We all make stupid dumb mistakes that have Conquesenses in life. Only thing we can do now is restart anew or atleast fix the name and image of yourself and hope for the better in the future. I hope you are doing well, I don’t even know what happened with you within the Community past few months but I’m glad your turning everything around.

Mario’s Voice Actor said he wanted to voice Mario till the day he died but also said that if he thought it wasn’t possible he’d signal Nintendo to start looking for a replacement.
Him retiring shows that he doesn’t think he can possibly continue doing Voice Work despite his desires. He knows his limits.
The new Voice Actor in Super Mario Bros Wonder still sounds like Mario thankfully.

Some people also just love drama and thrive on making other people miserable. But that says more about them than anything else.
Just have to remember that at the end of the day, we’re all strangers and nobody on the internet knows you as a person.

I just found out Mario doesn’t say “It’s a me, Mario!” He says “Itsumi Mario!” In Japanese which translates into “Super Mario”

Reading the words of Guild Wars 2’s Dragonvoid and hearing it’s Ocean-and-Void-themed speeches remind me of the Ocean-and-Void-themed speeches of WoW’s Void Entities.
Here are the speeches of Dragonvoid of GW2:
Close your eyes and feel the emptiness wash over you.
There is an ocean of Void, you are already drowning in it.
Darkness is a blessing. Close your eyes, and feel it wash over you.
You cannot avoid the undertow pulling you toward nothingness.
And now the speeches of the Void(and Barrowknoll Cemetery which is of Death) of WoW:
Beneath the tides, your truth awaits.
Light dies in the endless fathoms.
The currents wash you into the abyss.
You will all drown in the lightless abyss.
You struggle at the surface… but He waits below.
Beneath the tides… waiting… calling…
The depths spoke of your coming… and your demise!
Drown as your last light fades!
Heed the call of the depths!
None can stop the endless tide!
The sunken realm welcomes your yawning souls.
My fall is but a beat in the heart of the infinite abyss.
Embrace your fate. All will drown.
Beyond this small sea of stars there is only endless Darkness.
In the sunken city, he lays dreaming.
To find him, drown yourself in the Circle of Stars.
Let the tides draw you into my dream…
The stars sweep chill currents that make men shiver in the dark.
At the bottom of the ocean even light must die.
Those who pass beyond… will drown… within the dark…
The drowned god’s heart is black ice.
The fish know all the secrets. They know the cold. They know the dark.
The undrowned will join the chorus. Listen to it.
Open the gate. Step into the abyss. Complete the circle.
The cries of the drowned are getting louder.
All alone in the depths…

Alas the Maguuma Jungle of Guild Wars 2 lacks the wonder of the Maguuma Jungle of Guild Wars Prophecies…
The Crystal Desert would be as good as GW1 if the Mesas’ lines were verticle(https://wiki.guildwars.com/images/5/51/Crystal_Desert.jpg) not horizontal(https://www.gamereactor.eu/media/64/guildwars2_2156413.jpg).
The Jade Sea is nice but where are the Leviathan Claws, Scuttle Fish and Creeping Carp? They are what makes the Jade Sea the Jade Sea!
Also the Secrets of the Obscure Expansion is out:
It hasn’t been out long enough for Lore Videos(besides the one for the Kryptis as a whole) but from what I can gather from the Launch Trailer we are going to fight a female Villain.
I personally suspect Lyssa judging from the voice not matching Aurene(which would be necessary for a Kryptis feeding off of her) nor Soo-Won(which would also be necessary for a Kryptis feeding off of her from the Depths of Tyria’s Ocean). Edit: The enemy is apparently called the Shadow of Nayos(which is the name of the Demon Realm) though her actual name is not confirmed so we have no idea who she actually is so she could still be Lyssa.
Edit: on other matters(matters pertaining to The Legend of Zelda): Considering the Master Sword was broken then sent back in time what are the chances that the Horned Statue(which is said to contain the Antithesis of Hylia herself) contains the Soul of Demise the First Demon King?
Would any of you like for that to turn out to be the case in the DLC with Demise becoming the DLC’s Final Boss?
Disney+ conveniently posted all relevant Ahsoka episodes from Clone Wars to Rebels to BoBF and I am like, why did I just notice this today? I have binged watched The Clone Wars and Rebels to get caught up and I have to say, I’ve been sleeping on both of these series because I was too busy. The Clone Wars was some good Star wars storytelling. Maybe it was just Darth Maul’s overarching plot in both TCW and Rebels but Sam Whitwer really knows how to give a good performance, like damn.
Annd Ahsoka is now dropped, okay bye.

Do you ever feel love at first sight for a villain? I just know I am going to hand wave away all Shin Hati’s warcrimes. Don’t judge me, that’s not an evil person, that’s just a baby.

Xayide from The Neverending Story 2 looks attractive as do the Death Busters of Sailor Moon when wearing their School Uniforms as does Sailor Galaxia from Sailor Moon as does Cia from Hyrule Warriors as does Aria Blaze from My Little Pony Equestria Girls.
Just so you know it’s outfits that decide if a female character is attractive in my eyes as I find nakedness to be repulsive.
I both idolized and lived in fear of Xayide when I was a child, she’s still one of my favorite villains. She is the perfect combination of sexy and terrifying. Shin has baby doll eyes that look like you just kicked a puppy in front of her and I just can’t not fall for that. this sounds redundant but I hope she gets a redemption arc.
I’m on the fence about live action Hera, ngl she don’t quite look like what I expected but the sass was there and her banter with Huyang was great. David Tennant was a very pleasant addition to the Star Wars universe.
No spoilers, but, I liked it. I cant wait till next week.
On WoW Villainesses: None of them were attractive to me not even the Beautiful ones: Elisande and Pre-Searing Azshara had an Unearthly Perfection to their form as typical for Elves but attractive? No.
Azshara was ro hauty to be attractive imo but I know a lot of people who disagree.
One thing of interest, Dave filoni sure does love his wolf mythology. Skoll and Hati. Not subtle.
