  • How did you find DCC in the end, did you enjoy it?

    I’m just about to roll over into book 6 of He Who Fights With Monsters. I said it somewhere before but I think it is probably better than DCC in my opinion.

    There isn’t a lot in it and if you hate the item descriptions or stat regurgitations in DCC like a few people in this thread are saying then you will hate the excessively long stat lists that this has too, but I love it!

    Just got books 7 - 12 so that I can just keep on rolling through. I am going to return to Dresden once I’m through with this but it is going to be another 150 hours or so before that happens xD







  • Personally I don’t think you are an arsehole for not sharing anything but within my music niche there is definitely a lot of cunt that lock all their shares and are generally very hostile in regards to their shit.

    I share an absolute shit ton of stuff, a lot of brand new stuff and I always have hundreds if not thousands of tracks uploaded each week but my niche genre is absolutely full of elitist, gate keeping pricks.

    Aside from locking all their files trying to get bandcamp vouchers and shit in exchange for their files when some people want some stuff from me have had a fair few conversations with people saying “yeh you can have access to my files but you have to promise not to publicly share them”. I always agree that I won’t knowing full well I am going to straight away.

    I have also received a few messages when these same people realise I’m sharing “their” music calling me all kinds of things but fuck those cunts!

    Piracy is about sharing stuff and making it available to everyone as far as I’m concerned and pissing these elitist, file locking cunts off just makes me so fucking happy.

    The concept of locking files goes against what piracy is all about in my opinion and when I do find these file locking cunts when I am searching for stuff myself I will often just unshare all my files from them because they don’t deserve all my new releases I share if they are going to act like that.

    Long story short, fuck “etiquette”, share everything!

    And if you are a “dubstep head” sharing locked files on there reading, fuck you, you are a piece of shit.

    Thanks for coming to my TED talk.








  • Yup. Sounds pretty similar to my area. Dude isn’t Algerian but my guy is just a laid back guy who is out here trying to teach everyone that comes in so hopefully they learn about the issues for the future and then often tries to undercharge me for his time when I do pop in myself.

    I have nearly punched on with the cunts at a couple of the other shops when I have been forced to go in a a try and find a part locally due to how disrespectful and obnoxious they can be.


  • That depends heavily on the bike shops you have nearby. My town has maybe 6 bike shops that I know of. I only trust one of them to do work on my bike and even that place I check their work afterwards as if the younger kid that works there ends up with my work I know the work is gonna be trash.

    You have the shops like say Walmart or decathlon who sell cheaper bikes and employ a “mechanic” too. They can’t even be trusted to build a basic bike up they are selling.

    Then you have more specialised bike shops where that is their main trade who are quite often elitiest cunts who talk down to you and think they are the hottest shit ever.

    In my experience it is very hard to find a bike shop that knows what they are doing properly and also don’t treat you like shit the moment you walk in, in my experience.

    My point is I think you learn more from YouTube than you could from a bike shop employee usually.
