It’s not a question of someone “figuring it out”, they have to clear it with the console parties, and for a variety of reasons (but usually, it’s “we want people to buy that game for our specific console”), your Sony/Microsoft/Nintendos will say “no”. We’re seeing a few games where the attitude among the manufacturers …

I mean, yeah, the internet is a negative place. You’re right.

I feel like Borderlands 2 maybe. Mostly because the actual game had a ton of content and replayability  

Gamers: There’s nothing to do in this game!

I have a question.

So they are "fixing" the only non-complicated and smartly implemented part of their progression system?

I’m generally sympathetic to the plight of trying to balance the progression systems in a grindathon, but it’s hard to read this as anything other than a cynical bandaid for a lack of meaningful endgame.

Alibae goes up several notches in my book when she goes from inferior copy of her brother to RDM badass.

Alisaie definitely is THE shit!

In a more sane world, everyone would just use the NCAA’s testosterone policy, and then be open to monitoring outcomes over the course of years or even decades as we continue to accrue more observations of trans athletes. This is a topic where I don’t really care about people’s opinions right now. I think the…

The dealer is no longer under the same ownership. Its still there though but under a different name. But It wouldn’t make sense to name the dealer now as it would do a disservice to the current dealership and some could imply that they were the ones that did it. Were they still around I would most definitely name them…

Ha It occurred to me many times over the years. But I get satisfaction that he lost his job over this. I hope he didn’t land somewhere else though.

Ah, the old “your loan application was denied” ruse. I had that happen to me once, except the application was never submitted and it was a lie to try to ram me into a loan with a bigger down payment, a much higher rate, and I am sure a bigger finance reserve to the dealer. Their mistake was not realizing that in a…

Thats exactly what happens. I remember when I was in the business. Me and a service tech had to go repo a Pontiac Vibe from this guy. We had him to agree on a down of 2k. He would bring in a thousand one week and the next thousand another. He brought the first thousand. Next week came. He never showed up with the…

This American Life did an episode about the numbers games that dealerships and sales people play with manufacturers. They don’t really care if the car comes back either. Sometimes they just need those quotas up enough to qualify for the bonuses and manufacturer incentives. If the car comes back, the numbers still get…

As someone else noted, sending someone off without an absolute approval is common. Especially, like in the instance of my mom, if the deal is being done on a Friday or weekend. If they really want to get that “sale” they’ll send the customer off by convincing them everything is fine while waiting until the next…

This sounds horrible. My question is how or why did they send her down the road in the Sebring without credit approval?

So sorry to hear about that awful experience your mom had, but I’m happy that she won her case and made them look like the fools they were. I worked in sales at a dealership for 2 years, and being up close with salespeople I can tell you that they are the most 2 faced people you’ll ever meet. Acting cordial and nice…

According to others reporting it (though I’m guessing more tabloid in nature given the choice of racier photos so pinch of salt) it was other mums reporting her.

ROFL...neighbors and parents “discovered” the site, huh? Any word on which dad or dads outed her to the rest? Jesus is fine with us LOOKING at OnlyFans, apparently...it’s only the posters who need to be kicked out. You couldn’t pay me to send my kids to a Catholic school.
