a whole lotta nothing, only $5
-
I guess Activision has a reputation for milking consumers, but asking them to pay $5 for nothing?
(also related: there's a bunch of people who left this place when moving to Discourse, I left when you moved to this pile of rubble)

I guess the crowdfunding campaign failed, but you can always sell your 'fuck-you's on Steam it seems... ;)

-
@Lorne-Kates you should start a patreon.

Fuck you, give me money every month.
-
@Lorne-Kates what about an Amazon referral link so I can fuck other people and give them money while giving you money?
-

Careful with that combination man, mixing Lorne and hookers is usually a bad combo...
-
@Onyx Yuo can get hookers on Amazon now? Are they part of the 1 hour delivery?
-
@Jaloopa Sounds like it’d be more up Uber’s alley.

-
@NTAuthority It's some useless skins and weapon base types afaik.
Whatever, people just need to play that game. It's an amazing game.
-
@blakeyrat said in a whole lotta nothing, only $5:

That's too much money. Fuck you.

Drone delivery.
-
@Lorne-Kates Maybe I should start a Patreon, would you guys pay into it? I could have exclusives for Patreon subscribers, like I'm actually polite to them and don't call them fucktards.

I'll have you know our drones now include an optional personality module that enables enhanced interaction with customers and an improved experience overall!

Psh, now I'm certainly not going to pay.

Start one and find out. It costs nothing.
Make funny videos and I might for over some Fuck You money.

If you liked any of those videos, but especially if you didn't, you should give me basically the entire contents of your wallet at the first oppurtinity.
😆
-
@Lorne-Kates wtf, it says 5 people paid you for fuck you, and you made 24 usd already. it can't be that easy
-

He can't until you give him money to fix his shitty loud AC. Don't you read his videos thread?
-
@FrostCat Actually I was thinking of making some new ones today because it's kind of cool (my living room is only 72 so I can turn off the AC for awhile). Then I can make them PATREON EXCLUSIVE for awhile.
-
@blakeyrat I was going to suggest you wait until you actually have followers, but you've already got one whole one.
It says "1 o
rf 3". Did you really only put three slots in?
-

I guess it must have gotten confused when I signed up...
-
@Tsaukpaetra Meh, I'm now more interested in discussing the OTHER options: why is his car note $920/mo? For a Fusion?
-
@FrostCat said in a whole lotta nothing, only $5:

How many am I supposed to put in? By "slot" I assume you mean "goal".
@FrostCat said in a whole lotta nothing, only $5:

It's a short-term loan. It'll be paid off long before I start thinking about buying a new car.
-

Ah but my lovely neighbor thought today would be a good day to pointlessly rev his motorcycle engine for awhile.
I honestly don't understand how so many YouTubers get quiet environments. I live alone with a cat and it's hard as fuck for me.
-
@blakeyrat Ok I just posted a PATREON EXCLUSIVE VIDEO ONLY FOR PATRONS to my page.
I don't know how anything works. If someone becomes a patron after I post it, can they still see it? Does it automagically post a "hey there's a item you can't see because you're not a patron" or so I have to do that manually? This site is low on the useful guidance.
EDIT: I just checked on a cookie-less browser, so I have to manually make a post saying I made a patron-only post. Sigh.
EDIT EDIT: Except it doesn't have a "everybody in the world EXCEPT patrons" option so patrons just get spammed with TWO posts about the same video, one of which implies they can't currently see it? Moronic. I don't expect software quality any more, but it'd be nice if companies spent more than 5-6 seconds thinking about the functionality of their product.

Huh? Mine do:
But yours don't seem to have done that.
-
@Yamikuronue Oh maybe a setting somewhere?
-
@blakeyrat said in a whole lotta nothing, only $5:

I have no idea. Can't you leave it open-ended? All I know is on Kickstarter, you can have those "25 people can get this reward thing" and it looks like you did that. If you get 3 $1 people, can you still get more people?
@blakeyrat said in a whole lotta nothing, only $5:
It's a short-term loan.
That's actually what I figured. Even if you got the top-of-the-line model with all the trim levels, I don't think it's that expensive.
-
@blakeyrat Maybe. Or maybe it only shows up after a billing cycle has run or something? I'm wondering if stuff's not quite set up right because your account is brand new
-
@Yamikuronue Oh wait, are you supposed to use "Make a Post" and then set it to patrons only, or are you supposed to use the "Manage Rewards" page? This is so fucking confusing.

They move out into the countryside?

It works like sh*t.
@blakeyrat said in a whole lotta nothing, only $5:

Correct, but only if it's a tier they have access to.

Does it automagically post a "hey there's a item you can't see because you're not a patron" or so I have to do that manually?
Nope, it is assumed your "free" stuff is kept separate from the "paid" stuff. However, there is an estimate of how many posts you've made in total in the Patrons-only section:
@blakeyrat said in a whole lotta nothing, only $5:
@Yamikuronue Oh maybe a setting somewhere?
Likely.
-

It did say something about my account being in some special status for 72 hours, one sec...
One More Quick Note:
All new accounts, as well as accounts that exceed $600 in total payouts, are placed on hold for a few days for verification and to ensure the safety of our community. Apologies for any inconvenience, this is to keep your account safe!No explanation of what "on hold" actually entails, natch.

Well, patron.
Slightly more seriously, are you going to file a bug report?
-

OK well that's SOMEthing but it's totally different than what Yami's screenshot shows.
-

I don't care enough.
I will delete the second post though, assuming that eventually my account will work the way Yami's does.

Yeah, it's likely some kind of hidden-somewhere-obvious-to-the-site-devs-but-not-normal-people setting that lets you specify posts that non-patrons can see the title but not the content.

@Tsaukpaetra It does have an icon that looks like an up-arrow coming out of a box, which has no tooltip (natch). Turns out it's "share on social media".
EDIT: Oh I just hit refresh on my cookie-less browser, and now it shows up like Yami's example. WTF? Are they using a really slow eventual consistency database to power this thing?
