![]() ![]() Grinding is a fundamental part of RuneScape or any MMO for that matter. While it will work, it isn't the best plan. What you're proposing here, from what I've gathered, is destroying RuneScape will get rid of bots. Maybe the decline would be more gradual, like a bonus XP weekend except every day. Perhaps only one hour a day would be a little extreme. Otherwise there wouldn't be as much botting or RWT now would there? and that is the opinion of a LOT of people. And boy have I wasted time and regretted it. It can take WEEKS of constant playing for one level. and just for the hell of it, if you want to see a game with worse grinding than Runescape, look at Perfect World. So there's something they could do.Īnother thing would be dynamically increasing quest monsters' power for those that decide to get high levels before questing. It does seem like there would be less to do at that point. Runescape has been adding more high level content, but it hasn't been much. Though another thing wow does have is a large endgame, from what I hear, so people with maxed levels still have a lot to do. (the only reason I don't play it really is because I don't give a crap about the lore right now and most of its quests are what we'd call slayer assignments.) It still has it, and it still has bots, but these are both much lower than in Runescape. But from what I've seen and understand, WoW has significantly less of a grind. I really wish I played WoW so I could compare the two more easily, so I'd like it if somebody could come in and make the comparison. Just reducing it to more reasonable levels. Yeah, I don't mean completely eliminating the grind. What about you? How do you think training could change? Do you think the grind is a problem at all? and that's all I've got.Īgain, I'm clueless as to how this can actually happen, as I haven't played any other MMOs for reference. also, make effigies more common and usable by lower levels. I really wouldn't know how to go about that though. I do think simply increasing xp would make the game rather dull, so there would need to be changes to how skills are trained, not just an increase in xp. If it weren't for the fact that I cared about the lore(something too many players don't seem to) I probably wouldn't be playing now because of it. Me, I mainly want to quest, but the reqs can sometimes involve serious grinding. They just want to pk and do all the fun stuff. Runescape is so utterly grindy and people don't want to do it. It doesn't really take any sort of skill or effort, just free time and willingness to waste hours doing repetitive tasks. I understand people take pride in their stats, and the time it took to get them, but let's be honest here. I highly doubt Blizzard is any better than Jagex at bot fighting, which in and of itself is utterly futile. ![]() I haven't played WoW, or any other MMO, but from what I understand it has much less of a grind, as well as having less bots running around. I really think the botting problem can be traced back to the biggest issue with Runescape, which is grinding. ![]() This is more or less my opinion rather than a suggestion so. I was going to put this in Suggestions but I really have no solid ideas on how to fix it. ![]()

![]() ![]() Finally, you must have normal color vision you cannot be color blind as an Army linguist. This involves a background check and interviews with your family and friends to determine if you are capable of working with and protecting classified national security information. And top secret security clearance is also required. If English is not your native language, you must also prove your citizenship to be considered for a job as an Army linguist. If English is your second language, you must also prove your fluency in the English language, and you could be sent to school to sharpen your skills. If you're already fluent in a second language, you must prove your skill level through a Defense Language Proficiency Test or an Oral Proficiency Interview, scoring a 2/2 or higher. You must score a 105 or higher (out of 176) if you hope to attend the Army's Defense Language Institute. The Defense Language Aptitude Battery determines how well you can learn a new language if you're a native English speaker. We'll learn more about these criteria on the next page.īefore you're considered for a job as an Army linguist, you must take a test to prove your level of competency in language skills. Before you can apply for any of these positions, you have to meet several stringent requirements for inclusion in the Army linguist program. ![]() īut let's not get too far ahead of ourselves. ![]() While these positions still require fluency in a foreign language, responsibilities include non-language skills such as visual surveillance, information collection through special operations or interrogations, and analysis of the enemy's capabilities, vulnerabilities, and plans of action. If you're talented in languages, but you don't want them to be the focus of your career, there are many other opportunities within the Army linguist program, including Signals Intelligence Analyst, Human Intelligence Collector, Imagery Analyst or Intelligence Analyst. This may include general information, mission-specific reporting or tips due to changes in communication, as well as translating transcripts of foreign communication recordings. Next we'll discuss what types of jobs the Army offers for linguists.Ĭryptologic linguists specialize in any language they choose, and are mostly responsible for detecting and identifying foreign communications using signals equipment. This degree can help you go further with your career while you're enlisted and once you are discharged. Īnother benefit of training at the Defense Language Institute is the potential to earn an associate's degree if you transfer 15 non-language credits from another accredited institution. In fact, the soldiers are paid a full salary and provided housing and benefits, including a retirement plan, while attending school. The Army trains soldiers at its Defense Language Institute at no cost to the recruits. So what if you're not fluent in any languages other than English, and you're still interested in becoming a linguist? Because there's a high demand for linguists in every aspect of foreign military exchanges, including intelligence, negotiations, special operations and more, even if you have no previous training, the Army is still interested in you if you have a knack for learning languages. In addition to the standard benefits you would receive as a soldier, as a linguist you would also qualify for Foreign Language Proficiency Pay, which could add an additional $400 to $1,000 a month to your paycheck for each language you're proficient in. If you meet the criteria for one of the many positions under the linguist umbrella, the Army will pay you well for your skills. So, if you're already fluent in multiple languages - or you're adept at learning new ones - a career as an Army linguist may be just what you're looking for.Ĭommunicating with citizens of other countries and understanding their culture is paramount to many of the Army's efforts - not just in its defensive operations, but in its humanitarian missions, as well. Army will pay you to do just that? As an Army linguist, you could get paid to learn one of 24 different languages, as well as travel to several foreign countries to serve as a translator or a cryptologist.

She would NOT refund my money! I told her over and over to give me my money so I could leave and NOT come back with my dogs, the POLICE were called and ONLY then did she give me my money back! She would not let me speak with anyone else there BUT her. I was over charge for 6 medications when I only needed 2! Over $60 overcharge! They never called and told me about it, when I went in to get my refund (Which they rudely admitted too, and didn't even apologize) The most unprofessional & Rudest person I have ever meet was a lady manager with short blond hair. My puppies need a simple deworming as well so I had to come in and out getting fecal exams. I had spent the whole week there getting my new puppies 9 week & 10 Weeks old established there. I had the most horrible experience of my life here! By far! I was so excited to find a new vet for my 3 English Bulldogs 2 were puppies I just got. Whatever the case, anyone choosing to go to this vet should consider it a "buyer beware" situation. I see all these glowing reviews on Google, but I wonder if some of these patrons have never had really, truly great service & are just settling for the terrible service that Bijou offers. I will not be going back to this vet again. She also was hesitant to ask for pain meds for my dog. My dog was clearly in pain when we left & the front desk gal wanted to argue with me that the care we received was all they could do. I had even had a conversation with the tech after they took my dog in the back to look at her paw. ![]() (This has happened before & this was the standard of care my previous vet provided.) While I appreciated being scheduled for an appointment on the same day, I was frustrated that all they did was wrap her paw with a bandage & charge me $26. I had explained on the phone that my dog had cracked her dewclaw & would possibly need to be put under with quick anesthesia so it could be trimmed. ![]() The 2nd visit (this past Saturday) was not good either. I even called back the next day to discuss the situation with the front desk & asked them to put a note in my account that I never wanted to be scheduled with that vet again. ![]() When he did, he was condescending & talked over me & wouldn't listen. And we had to wait for the vet to finally come in after 25 minutes. The first visit was chaotic.there were dogs barking the entire time & an unorganized/frenetic front desk. Both times have been negative & I won't be going back again. I've now been to Bijou Animal Hospital twice. Was wanting to find somewhere good & closer to my home. I had been taking my pets (all 4 of them) to our previous vet for 15 years until she retired in February 2018. I transferred my pets records to this vet on the recommendation of a friend. ![]() ![]() The game also keeps track of the number of goods the player picks up. The animal and money goals are checked off as soon as the player completes those objectives, and remain checked off even if the player sells the animals or spends the cash.

The player must cage them by quickly and repeatedly clicking on them otherwise, the predators will toss the other animals off the farm and destroy any goods lying on the ground. ![]() Predators such as bears sometimes appear on the farm. From there, the player may either sell the goods by having a truck transport them to town or turn them into more valuable goods using a specific processing facility. The goods the player picks up are stored in a warehouse with limited capacity. For example, chickens lay eggs, sheep produce wool and cows produce milk. Once the player buys an animal, the animal starts eating grass and dropping goods for the player to pick up. A well with a limited capacity supplies the water and costs money to refill. To raise animals, the player must regularly water the grass they eat.

How To Find the Current Bank of America Savings Account Interest Rate Here are the rates you can expect if you qualify for the Preferred Rewards program. Tiers go all the way up to Diamond Honors tier for customers with greater than $10 million on deposit. The Gold tier, which requires an average daily balance of $20,000 in deposits and investments over three months, is the entry-level tier. Preferred Rewards customers qualify for a variety of perks, including interest rate bonuses on checking accounts. This program rewards customers for holding large balances in deposit and investment accounts. If you want to keep your money with Bank of America and retain the liquidity of a savings account, check if you qualify for an interest rate boost through the bank’s Preferred Rewards program. To explore Bank of America’s CD interest rates, go to the bank’s CD page and select “See available terms and rates” under “Compare CD options.” Increase Your Interest Rate With Preferred Rewards Interest rates vary based on the amount of money you deposit and the term you select for the CD. But the interest rate you earn will be significantly higher than that on a savings account.īank of America Standard Term Certificates of Deposit require a minimum opening deposit of $1,000 or $10,000-depending on the CD-and interest rates up to 4.50% APY. ![]() You won’t be able to take your money out before your CD term ends without paying an early withdrawal penalty, and you won’t be able to add more money to the CD once purchased. With a CD, you sacrifice a bit of liquidity for more interest growth. You can keep your savings with Bank of America and earn a greater return by opting to purchase a certificate of deposit, or CD, from the bank. If you move $5,000 from a Bank of America savings account to a high-yield savings account that earns a 3.00% APY, you can expect to have almost $150 more in your pocket after one year. In contrast, the FDIC reports the national average savings account interest rate as 0.42% as of June 20, 2023.Ĭonsumers can get an interest rate even higher than that average by considering the best online savings accounts.

Unsecured loans don’t require collateral, though failure to pay them may result in a poor credit score or the borrower being sent to a collections agency. In exchange, the rates and terms are usually more competitive than for unsecured loans.

To fix this issue, we can setup CORS through a proxy on Grunt. The requests from front-end server to the backend-server will result in same-origin policy errors due to the port difference. It happens because the backend Laravel service runs on port 8000 and the front end development server runs on port 8080. ![]() This is not possible with typical web server setup because XHR requests are not allowed to be cross-domain by browsers due to Cross-origin resource sharing (CORS) limitations.So, the problem here is as follows, you are developing the UI of your applications using some frontend JavaScript framework (say Angular) with Grunt as the build runner, and the backend of your application is being designed in some backend framework other than JavaScript/NodeJS (say Laravel), you might face problems accessing the backend while running Grunt server. For example, when you are developing your backend with anything other than JavaScript, you will face difficulty in accessing the backend data in your frontend without having to compile and deploy the code every time, you make any changes. Grunt can help you with automatically minifying your JavaScript or CSS files, reload your browser on every file change, can show you a comprehensive list of JavaScript errors, compile your SASS/LESS files into CSS files automatically and many other things.However, the most significant advantage of Grunt that I am going to discuss today is its ability to proxy your requests to the backend server. It is a JavaScript task/build runner that is written on top of NodeJS. For JavaScript projects, Grunt serves the similar purpose.

I'd estimate that it's around two dozen over the last twenty years. Wherein, after the application of considerable pressure, Clark finally admitted that he was basing his opinion of all those who choose not to believe in deities on a sample-size he described as follows: I used to think he genuinely was looking for debate and discussion, but then I read his piece on atheists: Essentially because his intention is to encourage outrage by trolling. I forgot where I was going with this.Ĭlark is perfectly capable of holding any number of mutually contradictory and ridiculous positions simultaneously. Anyway, it all sucks, so I decided to get into the system in order to prevent me and mine from getting fucked over by the system.

Not to mention a lot of this evidence-based shit is just based on cherry picked studies funded by pharmaceutical companies to push drugs while they are still on patent.

So thanks again for the many interesting posts and topics raised, and thanks to Ken for sharing his space so freely with you. I certainly look forward to seeing where Status 451 takes us, although whether it finds a permanent home on my already full home-page remains to be seen… That said, something did feel a little 'off' in the last 12 months or so, and I suspect setting out on a fresh new venture might revitalize a spark that felt missing this last year. While I rarely agree with the full extent of your posts, they almost unfailingly give me something to think about, and reveal sides of a debate I am rarely exposed to otherwise (internet being the natural echo chamber it is, unless you pay great care to diversity in your sources). I have found your posts to be an essential seasoning to the pope-hat feast. I am usually an observer, rather than a commenter, but can't let Clark go without saying a fond farewell. It feels like a passing of the guard, with new contributors coming in and Clark moving on.
