Iâm sorry butâŠ.this is hilarious to međ. Zuko literally leaving his fighting pose to yell at his little sister is both so in character and such a sibling move.
I feel like so many problems people have with tv at the moment could be solved if we just went back to the good ole days of 20 episodes a season thatâs just sixty percent filler and character development. Give the people what they want- less condensed story and more meaningless shenanigans
The most horrifying thing about being a human is that no matter how intelligent you are or how much customer service training you have, nothing will stop you from being the idiot customer on occasion. At some point you won't read a sign or you'll misread a menu or ask the dumbest question a human has ever formed and there is nothing you can do to prevent this. It will happen. Accept it and continue on your way as one of today's dipshit customers.
Miscommunication: I told you the appointment was at 7, and you thought I meant 7am when I actually meant pm.
Misunderstanding: I said the appointment was at 7 and check-in is half an hour early, meaning I had to be there at 6:30, but you thought I meant that the appointment was at 7:30 and I had to be there at 7.
Obfuscation: I said that I have appointments at 4, 7 and 9 today and then a handful more tomorrow, nothing is too important, no worries.
Lack of Communication: I won't tell you when the appointment is, if I've even told you there's an appointment at all.
Lie: I said that the appointment was at 5.
Gaslighting: What do you mean I told you the appointment was at 5? it was always at 7. I definitely never told you 5. You've been getting confused about a lot of things like this lately, are you sure you're okay? Maybe you need more sleep, or you should consider seeing a doctor. I'm worried about you.
The number of people reblogging this post thinking its main purpose is to explain gaslighting is in retrospect entirely logical, but it was actually about what does and doesn't count as "miscommunication"
being an adult is just saying to yourself âthis is the weekend iâll clean my [x]â and then proceeding to not do that because itâs the weekend and you deserve to relax, goddamnit
Some names just sound so ridiculously fake that had they been fictional, people wouldâve rolled their eyes in complete disbelief. Like seriously. Wdym thereâs a mf called Galileo Galilei. Stfu. You just made that up
Fastest man on earth is a guy called Usain Bolt. Sure I guess. Thereâs a poker player whose real name is Chris Moneymaker. Whatever. Scott Speed is a racecar driver. Founder of Titoâs Vodka is some guy called Bert Beveridge. Thereâs a former CNN bureau chief called William Headline. Youâve got to be fucking kidding me.
Abt the whole Valko thing, I wrote something in the official server that Iâm gonna post here as well jic something happens.
Honestly my main worry is the legal side of things as there was a VERY small but vocal group that got the Chinese state involved. I feel like the pressure was more political/legal than because of money.
Honestly this is messed up an all sides imo. This isnât the first time that one of infoldâs games got sent downhill due to political reasons. Ladsâ predecessor (MLQC) had an issue in 2021 where one of the VAs was fired due to an accidental political message. I doubt he knew that what he said would result in him being fired, but Chinese laws would have destroyed the company had they not fired him. This drama resulted in a large percentage of people leaving the game and all of the VAs quitting the game (two in good graces with the company, two in bad graces) and being replaced. The game went steadily until they had to make the change to partial voice acting, but still did not make enough money. The game went EOS this March.
Right now, the issue, just like last time, is the lack of communication from infold. Rather than fully explaining their decision with something as simple as âDue to legal matters we cannot move forward with Valkoâ they try to keep it vague. Now the community is split between people blaming infold and people blaming the CN girlies when I feel like itâs more nuanced than that.
Yes infold is an greedy company but unlike most of their decisions this doesnât feel like it was done purely because of money. Their office building was sent literal manure which is a huge health hazard and people were wishing death to them via the chrysanthemums. There were news reports on them, a detail in-game that was there for a while was suddenly the main point of attention. But they could and should have done more. Their PR team is shit
There are some CN girlies who are celebrating Valkoâs removal, but others are grieving just like us. The people who harassed infold were very few, but even 10 can raise an eyebrow. Blaming all of them will be just as toxic and cruel when the vast majority are actual well adjusted people
Rather than placing the blame onto one group (CN Girlies, Infold, etc) itâs important for us to work together to try and solve this. Send emails, sign petitions, write posts, etc. Donât spread hate.
But above ALL else make sure to focus on yourselves. I sincerely doubt this issue will be solved in the next 24h. If this really stresses you out then take a step back from social media (especially twt, itâs a dumpster fire over there. Saw one person call another brain dead for liking Valko and blamed both Valko and infold for all of this. I will not be including them in the sources to not cause unnecessary drama). Take care of yourselves, drink water, go to sleep, cry if you need to, engage in other hobbies, etc. Your mental health is more important than this game. If you canât take action without worsening your own mental health then donât
Lads will not reach EOS any time soon. They were able to keep MLQC running for 5 years, I know theyâll try their best to keep it alive from a functionality point of view.
Infold, if youâre somehow reading this, a small update could calm things down. Legally, idk how much you can say, but even a simple âDear Hunters, We cannot discuss all of our reasons behind everything due to current legal matters. We apologize for any stress caused by our recent announcement. Hereâs a code for (idk how much I personally think 50 pulls in dias in case ppl wanna spend it on something else)â. And if you can say more, PLEASE say more. The biggest issue right now is your vagueness tearing the community apart. We do not want a repeat of MLQC
I am incredibly upset by this whole situation and I feel very sorry for the creative team responsible for creating Valko.
The decision taken by Infold has not only destroyed trust towards the company, but also damaged relations amongst fans. It was the worst possible choice. Itâs not just incompetent, but also foolish, short-sighted, and only leaves the company more vulnerable to further blows of this kind.
I have no intention of changing my attitude towards the characters in any way, nor of stopping drawing any of them. It is the characters themselvesâinto whom the creative teams have put so much effortâthat I love, not Infoldâs attitude towards the fans.
