yeah ill just hold it in my lap I gues
2
Uugh chairs like that kill my back
@GnomeSlice that's too low
no one's back is that straight for a start d:
I want my whole back supported plz ok thx bye
21:00
it's on his lap in the picture
@KevinvanderVelden the image is about arm-keyboard angle, not the chair :P
@GnomeSlice no it looks like a keyboard tray
that image completely ignores the fact I'm 6'2
Senran Kagura Shinovi Versus is coming to Steam! :D:D:D:D
yes, but it's at lap height
21:01
some here are like 4'...
its touching his leg
@GnomeSlice the picture guy has pretty fat upper legs...
if its your lap you will need to throw your arms way too close to your waist
@Fluttershy is store page open?
@Chippies it's about ergonomics with a detailed drawing of a chair, I can complain about the chair =p
21:01
either way at the moment im playing a live internet game about everyone clicking a button to puff up a balloon live till it hits a needle and then that level is completed, then it will say ("it took somethingpuffs and somethingusers to get here") and it the amount of air per puff decreases per lvl, lvl 1 took 6k puffs, but everyone is on lvl 8 which has taken 300k puffs so far, and lvl 10 will take 5 mil
im using an auto clicker on it also
@blakeharrisonakerz wat
sorry i feel like in-depth explaining everything
@blakeharrisonakerz This is the stupidest game I've ever heard of
ik
its strangley addicting
@ardaozkal Yeh. Can't preorder or anything, but it releases tomorrow.
21:02
@fredley It sounds like the kind of game the bridge would get addicted to for 3 weeks.
@fredley Steam MSG wasn't any better
this is like that terrible steam incremental
@Fluttershy any links?
it sounds less addicting/fun than cookie clicker
@GodEmperorDune too late
21:02
@Wipqozn my thoughts exactly LOL
@Wipqozn I know. I'm bummed I didn't think of it first
in the bottom right corner it says 172 active users at the moment
@fredley do one about doctor who
@AshleyNunn yeah. People already stated the obvious rules, I'm just stating that this room is google indexed
@fredley just put bridge memes in it and we'll play it
21:03
in that episode when he chips away at the diamond hard wall
for millions of years (and deaths)
@ardaozkal store.steampowered.com/app/411830 Screenshots for the game are potentially NSFW, though.
@fredley You could have even made it so that hitting a certain level just started playing Friday
'each time you hit the mountain, you die. How many times will you die, to try and break the mountain?'
how many users does it take to shatter the diamond porkchop?
am i allowed to post the link to that game, i decided to talk about it because according to the owner at the bottom of the page it said the game needs exposure
21:04
@blakeharrisonakerz sure
Are you the owner btw?
pretty sure my legs are tray height
long legs
im not the owner
also i guess i just can't use se chat on this pc any more
im just a person who plays it
21:04
@Fluttershy any info on price?
Oh it's an actual balloon, cool
i found it and started playing it from reddit.com/r/webgames
@GnomeSlice crazy upscroll thing?
21:04
disabled shitton of extensions, still doing it
so many plugins
oh and btw its completely live so your popping a real balloon
err extensions
@ardaozkal Not that I can find, no.
its at 400k puffs
its been 3 days since the website was made i think
21:05
@GnomeSlice you checked for javascript/css errors in the console?
and updated browser?
@GnomeSlice as long as your wrists can be approximately parallel to your lower arms, you should be fine
and your hands parallel to keyboard
@blakeharrisonakerz can you send a screenshot? I don't have flash player installed so I can't watch
that happens ont he desk too
k
ill send a screenshot
wait i sec i need to screenshit it and upload it to imgur
just ss it
and click to the upload button
21:07
(I'm not at all trying to figure out if I can just send a billion puffs at once)
this is the weirdest "game"
the print screen button on my pc isnt working
@KevinvanderVelden summon @RedRiderX for mad hax
dont i need to press cntrl+prtscr or something?
21:08
yeo
yep*
Ctrl printscreen doesn't do anything, alt printscreen is the selected window
In either case it sends it to the copy buffer so paste it in paint
alt+PrtScr isnt working
there's also snipping tool in windows 7 and newer
21:09
windows+prtscr on W8 and higher
im using windows 10
saves to images/screenshots folder
btw
windows+PrtScr isnt working either
open the start menu and type "snipping tool" and press enter
and use that to screenshot
21:11
arm super uncmfortable, chair not high enough i guess
agh
k
also i cant belive i gained 29 site reputation in 1-2 days
> 666 questions with no upvoted or accepted answers in your tags
@GnomeSlice it's better to have the chair higher than lower, but too high can be bad too
21:13
this is so dumb
this is why pc gaming sucks
sometimes
@blakeharrisonakerz It is possible to get 200 everyday :)
yeah but i find it really hard to get reputation
for 1 i cant really make good questions
You do know you're not allowed to just copy and paste wiki pages?
@GnomeSlice these are more general problems from not using a PC ergonomically, not specifically gaming
@blakeharrisonakerz i had over 2k reputation before i asked my first question
21:15
@GnomeSlice I have had wrist pains from holding a controller wrong
Same, controllers hurt me more than mouse and keyboard
I don't have that problem
and for 2: even when you think you know everything about something(for example an anime that you have watched 7 times) and you find ridiculous questions even you cant awnser
not to mention finger problems from playing too long on my phone
@GnomeSlice i use an xbox 360 controller when playing some PC games
so im not even good with awnsers
21:16
use what you want
let alone questions
seriously most of the questions take INSANE levels of knowledge and research about that 1 single thing, and then you probabaly not even get any reputation from it
probably dont*
My highest rated answer on any site took 2 minutes...
@KevinvanderVelden yay HNQ
well that dosent make any sense
And that was only because I had to navigate to a place so I could get a screenshot and not make a terrible answer
21:18
@blakeharrisonakerz reputation doesn't matter
user4704
@KevinvanderVelden Mine was mostly regurgitating the PNG spec.
user4704
apparently
@ardaozkal well it does and it doesn't
Do your best at helping people, and rep will come
for example on the anime part of stack exchange, you have questions like "oh what was that one soundtrack that played for 10 seconds at that arbitrary bit of the anime"
21:19
@ardaozkal I mean, to be fair. If we removed all of his answers that are copy pastas of wiki pages he couldn't be chatting here
well i have no choice, how the hell am i supposed to awnser anything on this site
@badp Not a huge fan of you bringing that up as an object of discussion.
@KevinvanderVelden yeah.
@Frank sorry, i didn't mean to call you out
21:20
@GodEmperorDune Wasn't you.
whatever just leave it
What I mean is that you shouldn't do stuff for rep
i was actually admiring how you are far and away the most prolific voter on the site
@badp brought it up, even if he didn't mention me, specifically.
Oct 10 '12 at 0:35, by fbueckert
Grow thicker skin.
21:21
fine ill stop taking bits from wiki pages
whatever
@GnomeSlice yeaaah not helpful
@blakeharrisonakerz paraphrasing is fine, quoting is fine. Copying the entire wiki page isn't
k k k whatever
Heck, I have several answers on games I don't play where I do basically that
whatever, just leave it at that.
I've often answered questions based on research, just to counter other, not researched answers.
21:23
@KevinvanderVelden you're right, it wasn't
@GodEmperorDune I downvote quickly. I upvote rarely.
i got some sweet rep from an answer i stole from @twobugs' stream
well most of the questions on this site take LOTS of research, nearly days of it
@KevinvanderVelden same, you just have to make sure it is accurate and to link the source
k why the fuck is chat scrolling like this
21:23
@blakeharrisonakerz no?
it does
for me anyway
Also you keep saying this site meaning anime.se, this site for this chat is gaming.se ^^
@blakeharrisonakerz taking bits is accepted and encouraged (to provide external source etc), just don't copy the whole page and take a note of the source and it'll be fine.
user15026
@GodEmperorDune Nicely done :P
well, i guess since i see some people posting like 10 paragraphs of none copied info with like 5 pictures, with like 20 upvotes, the first thing that comes up is ("every good awnser is like that") and ("i want to make a awnser thats good") i guess thats why i think its hard to make an awnser
21:26
Arqade is far easier for earning reputation than most other sites. You just need to be playing a recent AAA game, ask a few good questions about it and/or answer a few if you happen to know the answer. It's far wasier than e.g. Stack Overflow
anyone got any way to help that?
@AshleyNunn i made up for it by getting @twobugs next question to hit the hotlist and repcap
so i dont think i have to make 100% 20 paragraph awnsers
@MadScientist yep
@blakeharrisonakerz you don't have to
21:26
@blakeharrisonakerz just, don't :D
well, sometimes you do
but quality helps
Just answer the core issue, and it'll be fine.
but the questions that have 1 or 2 paragraphs of info get only like 2 upvotes
don't just add filler for length
21:27
If the core issue requires... 20 paragraphs, then just don't answer it.
And also note that you can edit your answers, you can start with a small seed of an answer and then expand it
@ardaozkal well you just talked about every question on the anime part of the site
my highest rated answers are only ~1 paragraph long
bridge answers are mostly KISS.
check the top few ones. they are short, but they have ten sof reps
and i only really want to use the anime part because i have the highest reputation there, so on other parts i couldn't: upvote etc.
21:29
On this site, timing is important. If you're asking or answering at the right time, you get plently of reputation for relatively simple posts. But when a new high profile game is released, a question can get 10k views easily in a day.
@ardaozkal wow you have a lot of 0 score answers
@GodEmperorDune proud owner of the sites only tenacious badge
@GodEmperorDune and I have the rarest badge in arqade
@ardaozkal INB4
Good news: I have more money in my bank account than I thought I would right now. Bad news: the reason is because my first mortgage payment hasn't been deducted from my account for some reason.
21:30
@MadScientist overwatch got me a bunch. i already only need a few more answers to get the first badge for it
@badp One thing worth noting is that that value includes votes on deleted posts.
but i dont do much proper gaming, i rarely play downloadable games on my pc, and i dont use my xbox much, i just like to play online games, like cookie clicker, agar.io etc.
So reading anything at all into it is going to irk me greatly.
so there arent much questions that i can awnser
@blakeharrisonakerz those questions are allowed too
21:31
@Frank what i read into it is that you downvote a lot of bad questions that get deleted.
@ardaozkal but they arent common at all
I should point out that attackontitan.wikia.com uses CC-BY-SA 3.0
there alot rarer
and we also use CC-BY-SA 3.0
what CC-BY-SA 3.0 or whatever
whats*
@blakeharrisonakerz ccreative commons
as a result, you MAY quote whole wiki pages from there, but you need to give attribution
content licensing
21:32
which means a link and probably a list of authors?
@Dragonrage Which is, apparently, not the way things are supposed to be done.
i list the sources
How do I look at my voting ratio?
BY = attribution required SA = sharealike
21:32
This one is my most recent highly voted answer. It's a self answer to my own question that I encountered while playing Witcher 3 just after release. It's something many people playing the game will ask, so it has an absurd number of views, and enough votes. It doesn't take much to answer this one, but many people are helped by a simple answer to this simply because the game is confusing at this point
on activity
And does it really? I mean yes the license allows it but does that mean we should
and they say a link back to the wiki is fine in terms of attribution (fixed link)
its just there arent any portions of the site that im good at using at all
none of them
@MadScientist questions on "How do I solve $puzzle" are also good
im not good with science
i mean maths
@Frank i have a lot more downvotes than upvotes, and almost all of my downvotes are on questions/answers that get closed/deleted, i dont see anything wrong with that.
so a post such as anime.stackexchange.com/a/32457/79 is actually okay to make
though you have probably gotten it right by accident ;)
@blakeharrisonakerz stackexchange is huge
there is something for everyone
@Dragonrage Neither do I. I just don't like my voting record being referenced as a bad thing.
21:34
@MadScientist when i read this title, i saw baron's wife, and i was trying to figure out why i had never heard of that LoL lore
That irks me at least a little.
I thought I would have more downs than that
Although I don't usually bother downvoting spam and such
im only 13 though, im not really good with anything here
@blakeharrisonakerz I'm 16. I opened my account when I was 14.
@Frank People are allowed to criticize another user's conduct on the site
21:36
yeah but what i mean is im not good at these subjects compared to most people, so most of the time nearly all the questions will be ones i cant awnser
@Frank what I personally care more about is your almost spotless and endless flagging record
The simplest way to earn reputation is to post about parts of games that are simply confusing or misleading. Many people will get stuck at the same point, and they will appreciate help with those parts. And you don't need any special knowledge except for playing the game far enough and solving the issue for this
@badp Sadly, without 20K, not much else I can do. :P
-1
Q: Restrict access to certain actions in certain areas?

David Cole - Grammar PoliceI have an adventure map in the making, being the reason for the many questions all of a sudden, and I ran into an issue. The player chooses a kit from a starting point, but I do not want the player to be able to drop any of the items they get, or use any items they receive until they are in the a...

yeah but those questions are rare mad scientest
21:36
@GnomeSlice allowed != should. I don't think that we should discuss @Frank's decisions (or uni as he was mentioned in that meta).
@Frank your record is plenty
im not good with anything about games instead of playin them
@blakeharrisonakerz you'd be surprised
playing*
and even then i probably havent played them much
(Up arrow is edit here)
21:37
and most of the questions are about MMO's, dark souls etc.
nearly nothing about the games i know alot about
@Gnome, if you don't like my voting record, great. Don't care. It's mine. Discussing it is pointless. I don't bash you for yours, even if I don't agree with most of your assessments. So lay off.
@blakeharrisonakerz this network is about sharing knowledge. You probably know some stuff that you can answer.
i doubt that
@badp I'm somewhat surprised that helpful flags are no longer part of the moderator metrics for elections.
@Frank I guess SE figured those numbers are sensitive enough not to share by default
though you may feel free to flaunt them anyway
21:39
@Frank They're counting some badges that are based on flags
I'm not about flaunting; I'm about flagging.
@Frank I did not comment on your behaviour, please read what I said next time before you reply to me please
or in your words, "lay off"
okay, the attitude here needs to be dialed down a few notches
@Frank if i'm doing the math right, doesn't the -1 from downvoting an answer across all your answer downvotes mean you would've hit 20k already if not for that rep penalty? or do you get the -1 rep back when the answer is deleted?
@GodEmperorDune You get it back when it's deleted.
21:41
ah nevermind then
Can't see my flag record on mobile
It'd most likely not be enough to propel me past 20K, even if I undid all my downvotes that still exist.
probably a shambles though
I will never reach 20k, I can't afford aaa games any more
:(
the games i play are, roblox, ALOT of mobile games, a few indie games, Quite a few online games, a few xbox games, including naruto shippuden ultimate ninja storm 4, no hardcore games or games that take alot of effort and time, and i play quite a bit more but i cant remember
and i rarely get new games because my parents buy them.
i also like anime games
basically nothing on the gaming part
@GodEmperorDune That isn't flag record
@Unionhawk ><
@GnomeSlice I can't afford (don't want to either) and don't have time to play them enough to ask/answer questions before they are already asked/answered
so basically never gonna gain any reputation on any of the stack exchange sites
adult life has more cons than pros
21:46
@Chippies well yes
but i got a bunch of rep from fallout shelter, a free mobile game
@blakeharrisonakerz if you see something you can answer and it doesn't already have a good answer, just answer it
well your basically talking about nothing ever, Chippies
80 days is... well... a thing. I didn't think much of it.
I... can't comprehend that sentence...
21:48
The first half of Broken Age is nice.
@GodEmperorDune That's right, I still haven't forgiven you
I haven't played it.
so there.
That said, R.O.M. is good stuff.
I will happily be wrong on the internet about that.
I gave up on rep almost a year ago
@twobugs you said we were cool after you repcapped
21:50
I lied
#makemerepcapagain
user15026
@blakeharrisonakerz I play a lot of mobile stuff too :)
Cibele is... interesting

@badp broke the bridge!
it's what I do best
the bridge is to election chat as android hell is to the bridge
or something
How do I look at my flag history?
@Chippies He does that all the time.
