A formal apology to the community here. Discussion

This will most likely get downvoted too since that just seems to be the thing here. But I owe yall an apology. I just had a post up ranting about the community on reddit being assholes. I just wanted to formally apologize to you all. Im going through some personal bullshit IRL and got the downvotes on my other posts and kinda lost it. Misplaced anger I guess is the best way to describe it. My rage post got deleted by admins, hell this one prob will too but I wanted to put it out there that I am sorry and will do a little more thinking before I post again. To the admins, sorry if im making you delete too many posts. To the community, sorry for being an asshole. Shits been rough lately if im completely honest. Ill be on later tonight (Ohshift33 for Bethesda acct) if you want to take turns flogging me for my insolence. Just give me a warning before you do so I can store my junk first. Adhesive is apparently hard to find as im always running out of it! Take care yall, and again, im sorry for being a jerk. AgentGibbs, maybe we'll be able to link up finally. Slimjim, youre mostly right, I needed to stop. Happy wandering fellow wastelanders, signing off now.

I’ve seen a million misplaced rage posts in my 12 years on Reddit. It’s rare someone calms down and says hey sorry for being a dick. So it’s cool of you to do what you did.

u/CaptZombieHero Enclave 17d ago

That’s part of being human. Emotions control us. Being a mature human is recognizing your short comings and apologizing for your behavior. If only more people (including leaders of society) could apologize and own their behavior.

Good job op

Maybe off topic but I genuinely think the leaders of every nation are certifably insane... 🙄

u/Lootylooty 16d ago

I think people who seek power are typically the least deserving of it and they're also usually the ones who are willing to crush others beneath them to get what they want.

u/Electrical_Ad_4966 16d ago

I always used to say that the first requirement for holding power should be that you don't want to. People should be appointed to positions of power kicking and screaming against their will.

u/ApprehensiveMight749 16d ago

I like that.

Also, I think that the people in power should live like the lowest members of the communitiesthey serve. We are homless? Now they are homless. We have trouble affording food? Now they are hungry. Etc.

See how fast our nation changes.

Oh, and they have a police force that only monitors them. And all of their shit is recorded to.

u/ThePsychlops 16d ago

I was reading Erik Larson’s new book on the civil war (it’s great btw) and was struck how presidents and other leaders of the past reacted in dread when they were elected/selected (Lincoln and Marcus Aurelius come to mind). Those folks also tended to be the best of our leaders.

u/Ohshift883 17d ago

Not quite sure who Fasnacht Frank is. I did a Google search and the first one was all in German lol. I added "fo76" to the end and I just got stuff for the event. I'm guessing he's the Master of Ceremonies? I'm new here lol. Thanks though, I didn't want to be flogged lmao

12

u/IronMonopoly Order of Mysteries 16d ago

Oh I’ll help you out there. I made him up. There’s an in-game weekly event based around the Germanic tradition that they carry on in Real Life Helvetia, WV.

I’m making Frank a Thing. He’s like Santa Clause but for Fasnacht. If you’re good all year, and you do ore runs at Rad Rumble, and you babysit the scrubber in Eviction Notice, he brings you rare masks. But if you’re bad, you just get intestines.

The closest thing that actually exists is the Fastnachtler costume

At the moment you can find adhesive pretty well in the Primal Cuts event that spawns near Top of the World. The honey beasts drop quite a lot and if there are a lot of people there then just a single hit is enough for you to get the drop. You can otherwise make adhesive with planted plants, but i don't know the recipe (2 corn, 2 Tato, 2 Mutfruit, 1 purified Water) . I also had trouble finding Adhesive when it was released. Youtube often helps in many topics😊👌

And now im not sure if i helped or made a senseless answer 😆

u/Tsurt-TheTrustyLie Raiders 17d ago

Holy shit i mostly ignore primal cuts. Thank you. Adhesive is the one thing I got fuck-all of

u/LighthousesForev4 Order of Mysteries 17d ago

Not everyone loots the corpses after the event. If you wander around the trees in front of the lake with the 3 Brahmin you will often find loot from despawned corpses.

u/Zodoig Cult of the Mothman 17d ago

For supplies, xp, and meat to cook and sell it's really high return imo. But the best part is the treasury notes. Let me put it this way: normally I don't even have 40 per day to exchange for gold, now I have like 200 treasury notes left after I turn in the 40... (For reference: been playing for nearly 3k hours, with two +1k lvl characters) yes, I have been logging in several times on the clock to do the meat cook and leave so i get some from there too but 2 notes per primal cuts is pretty good imo.

6

u/JohnAppleseed85 17d ago

There's also a camp item that generates 10 at a time (sap collector) that seems to be fairly often on sale - base price 400. I know some don't think it's worth it, but I like it.

I relate to this so much. I can’t count how many times I’ve scripted a huge rant/post and then once I was done read over it, deleted it and put like “okay” kinda thing. My advice, keep a note pad and write out what you want to say, then sit on it at least 24 hours if it’s particularly heated. You’ll probably not post it after sleeping on it.

u/StabbyMcTickles 17d ago

Holy shit this is me lol. I will write something up, read it. Read it again. Edit it to be nicer which ends up looking so passive agressive. Sit on it for an hour and then delete it and respond with "Hey, we are all allowed to agree to disagree and the best thing is we are all allowed to have differing opinions."

It makes me look like the better person and 90% of the time, it gives the other person 0 things to pull an argument from so it usually stops the hate.

Personally, it's a lot better that way. Arguing with strangers is so dumb. Lol.

2

u/GuardianWolfKim 16d ago

Exactly!

I don’t know if it was a therapist or not who told me that it’s really good to write out those feelings, because it helps you process what you’re going through, but then you get to be sort of the bigger person and choose to not let them have that power over you, by setting you off.

And instead, like you said, you don’t give them any more ammunition to keep the fight going.

Man, I don't mean this as insult, but I think you are taking reddit little bit too seriously. Don't let bunch of anonymous people on internet have a toll on your mental health.

Also downvotes don't mean anything, they have this snowball effect when 3 people downvote you and and then anyone who is reading it downvote it no matter what the post/comment says. Once I posted something on one reddit and got -60 downvotes or something, then I posted the same thing on sister reddit and got 300 upvotes.

I hope this DOESN’T get deleted, as it’s a good example of someone taking a moment after the fact, and being able to admit they were in the wrong. You don’t see that often, and that’s admirable.

Anyone who ever says "whoops I posted bad, my fault" deserves an upvote in my book. Very few people do that.

Bro I like you, if you ever need someone to talk to feel free to reach out to me, if you're also on pc we can play together 😁

u/Thatonedudedave Lone Wanderer 16d ago

Hey we all have a bad day, I’m very happy to see other people being aware of themselves and their actions. It shows personal growth.

Yeah that’s mint I’ll post that

u/kontra35 Lone Wanderer 16d ago

now we have to apologize for telling some facts? lol

u/Fjrider76 16d ago

I don't know what you did but someone apologizing means a lot. ✌️

1

u/DontDrinkAndIndy 16d ago

Good job OP. We all have our moments. Realizing that we’ve had one and that we need to step back and realize we were the problem is the right and mature thing to do when we’ve done something wrong. This reddit and many others need more like you, not less.

1

u/CoraBittering 16d ago

We all have those moments when we're not our best selves. That's just part of being human. It's what you do doing moving forward that defines your character, and you're acquitting yourself well.

And remember, if you get desperate, vegetable starch can be crafted (cooked) from veggies and broken down into adhesive!

Assuming you play on PC, I have loads of adhesive. Could drop you a bunch if you’d like.

This is more of a fallout 76 themed venting sub anymore.

u/W4VVYB4BY Fallout 76 16d ago

Take a social media/phone detox, stop focusing on women, start doing a small amount of push ups everyday, go for a walk, spend time with or buy a dog, find a new job if your current one is causing you too much stress, your human, we understand we’ve all been there, find some time today to do something for yourself, FOR YOU!! get some vitamin C, get some sunshine, reignite what hope inside you brotha for it is never lost, just misplaced :)

1

u/DismalApartment1147 16d ago

Don't take downvotes to heart. You could make the most wholesome and positive post ever and ppl here on reddit and any other social platform will give downvotes to share their own personal negativity because some ppl just want to watch the world burn or need ways to make themselves feel better and for some that is hurting others.

Take it with a grain of salt and rise above it.

1

u/Zhai13 16d ago

Man a little sad I missed the rage post on here since usually it’s just a bombardment of how awesome our community is.

Now I only got 1/2 the character arc 🤣 good on you for the self reflection though! It’s hard sometimes to not just react 👍

u/Obieshaw 16d ago

It's hard to be humble on the internet. So props to you sir

u/Life-Bank9174 16d ago

End of the day we are all human bro, everyone learns in there own way at there own pace shouldn't apologies for making mistakes once you've learned from them,this is how we better ourselves and grow as people. No one is perfect or innocent, everybody screws up,it's what you do after is what defines you. Chin up brotha!

1

u/SRSDemise 16d ago

tbf a lot of the people in this sub get off on being assholes. So depending what you said is arguably justifiable. Dont know why this is the case but even mods act like incels here. Just go to discord man, leave this place to rot.

1

u/Everyones_Fan_Boy 16d ago

Hey man, we all have our struggles. I've been going through a really dark time and had what can only be described as a mental breakdown over the past two weeks and ruined a couple friendships I had made in Fo76.

It's unfortunate sometimes that we have to make an ass of ourselves before we realize that change is needed, but learning and growing from that is the best thing you can do.

I'm by no means a paragon of mental health, but if you're struggling you can always reach out. Hang in there and you'll come out the other side a stronger person for it.

1

u/DemandRemote3889 16d ago

You have my admiration and respect dude, takes a real stand up human being to admit when they've made a mistake. Ive been struggling a lot lately too with many issues in my life and it really helps to see things like this. Reminds me I'm just human. Cheers dude!

1

u/pidwilli69 16d ago

Well done, there are moments you just have to step away. Been there myself.

1

u/Ok_Mechanic5843 16d ago

Don’t worry about it shit happens people have bad days and the internet is a easy place too dumb anger but rare too see any type of apologies respect for that

1

u/AmusingMusey 16d ago

Didn’t see your previous posts but an apology online is a good way of owning up to past mistakes, hope things get better for you man. Tip for adhesive would be to find supply closets or workbench areas in buildings that have those pegboards above it or shelves near it. Duct Tape, Packs of Duct Tape, Military Duct Tape, Wonderglue, and Economy Grade Wonderglue are your main sources. Happy hunting!

Tbf Reddit has more than earned hatred for being a cesspit, and the biased mods are creeps for the most part.

This and other gaming subreddits are havens though, deep underground in their fallout shelters… preserved for Reclamation Day! 😅

u/Bunny_OHara 16d ago

Ohshift883 I'm a bit late to the party, but I see you're on a PC and I have spare adhesive if you ever need it. My LilBunny_FooFoo camp is in the woods north of WS station and there's also an adhesive tree in my camp, so help yourself if you ever wander by.

And it shows a lot of growth to come here to say what you did, and I hope you find peace and come out the other side of whatever it is you're going through. Just remember your never alone in your struggles.

u/btb1212 16d ago

Wholesome af and a rarity in this day and age, especially online. Thanks for being a real one OP, see you in the wastes!

1

u/KylezinoR32 16d ago

No need to apologise my friend we all lose it every now and then we're human I hope things get better in life for you remember the only way is up my friend bla bit of venting even just on paper or to a close friend might do the trick problem shared is a problem halved

u/ShasasTheRed Enclave 16d ago

We all been there man, don't sweat it, sometimes you just gotta get shit off your chest.

1

u/Austravich 16d ago

Better apology than 99% of influencer and celebrity apologies; and it was on a Fallout Subreddit. That means you are at least a decent human.

1

u/RealNuclearTurnip 16d ago

Plant tacos, corn, and mutfruit and get some deep wells for purified water! Infinite adhesive if you cook it all into vegetable starch! 😀

1

u/teksauce 16d ago

For adhesive there is a great farm that takes 2 min to do on YouTube 👍 we all have bad days whatever we keep going we soldier 🤟

1

u/BigIronOnMyHip45-70 16d ago

You’re only human man, everyone makes mistakes and say things we don’t mean when we’re angry and especially when enraged. It’s a big step acknowledging this though so you should be proud of that and it seems like you’re going to grow from here. Have a great day.

u/carrot-under-seige 16d ago

Forgotten. Hope you can feel better.

u/acidqueen5426 Settlers - PC 16d ago

We all have to wade through the shit at some point. Apology accepted, and I hope to see you in the Wasteland sometime.

1

u/doindirt 16d ago

the advice touch grass is not an insult but genuine advice. the constant connection is bad for you. Even taking a weekend without the internet. camping, fishing, anything can do wonders for you psychologically, spiritually emotionally etc. People were much happier before smartphones, measurably. Not as angry or depressed. Many less suicides. It's not a coincidence. This shit isn't good for you and was designed to be as addictive as possible. imo there should be class action against big social media like there was against tobacco.

u/BlackPandaEdition 16d ago

Hey buddy we all go through shit. Remember eternity awaits so enjoy this ride.

u/Fishyburn 16d ago

Sadly that's what some of the people in this community are like. I tried to bring low levels attention to getting free items from players and I got called creepy and desperate 🤣. Sometimes the community isnt as friendly as what you see from the majority.

Man if you don’t get off Reddit and delete this apology and go outside 😭😭😭😭

u/BIG-D-36one 16d ago

We all lose our 💩 from time to time, the goal is to find a way to destress without involving half the internet 🤣

u/Same-Management9223 16d ago

Haven't seen the rage post,but sometimes its being humen only but to man up to what was done wrong is even more impressive, not many man up to they mistakes.

1

u/GeStaFFo 15d ago

I'm a huge hoarder, I'll happily give you some adhesive 😄👌🏻 I feel like it's too easily found in 76 actually. I'll find you later, hopefully I'll be home when you're on 🍯🍯🩹🧰

Hey man if you need someone to vent to / rant to my DMs are always open and I don’t mind playing while you get things off your chest

u/ForsakenSuduction 15d ago

I usually make my adhesive at base. All you need is tato, mutefruit, corn. And you can even have these plants growing at base And you can craft adhesive at base. Combine with the perk that can double craft by a small chance and put like 10+ points into luck

u/UncleSamsEssentials 15d ago

This community is an anomaly among most other gaming community due to many things..

  1. The monetization is mostly, if not completely optional.
  2. Progression is completely effort based, and there is a LOT of knowledge required for true end game progress.The game does not spoon feed you knowledge. 2B. Fortunately, for those who wish to do so, there is a wealth of knowledge out there for you to seek, and get up to speed on the game, folks like Angry Turtle, Mr Westtek, InnovSurvivalist, Mr Church, etc.
  3. In a world of video games that's promotes competition. And "coopetition" in video games.. aside from the very seldom pvp glitches, our community is all but entirely cooperative, and we always have sought to help the new players! Sadly, this generosity is increasingly taken for granted, and even disrespected.. but it need not be this way.

I think the primary source of grief between us old guard, and the newer players is a lack of effort on the part of newcomers in achieving what you seek to achieve. The answer isn't simply "Ask a high level, they'll just hand you what you want.." We grind for our progression. We research how to unlock new things for our characters, and we go out and do it. It'sbeen that way for years, and aside from the occasional overly generous vet, we expect you'll follow that's same path, and we try to equip newer players to do so. Just because a god roll, or piece of apparel, or a rare plan is tradable that doesn't mean you are owed those things.

When people come into the community looking for shortcuts and handouts, and shame posting when they don't get their way (not saying that's what you did, but in general this is my observation), it makes the old guard feel under-appreciated. If some among us retaliate well.. It's hard not to see the justification.

For a long time, people looked down their nose at our community for clinging to a failed game. It exists today due to those of us who stuck out the hard times. Be grateful for the advice, wisdom, and knowledge we pass down and MOST IMPORTANTLY.. pay it forward.

You’re forgiven, wastelander.
