Reply to comment by Both-Internal-6970 in Bridge water fall Bown's Island by ChevyLeroy

True, the water is actually bugged out god rays.

On that note, I’m cautiously optimistic that the next-gen update “coming 2023” for Fallout 4 might actually work for me to complete the game without unavoidable crashes near Goodneighbor.

I’ve easily dumped hundreds of hours into the game before it became (or feels?) like a progression blocker.

While I understand your reasoning for removing my comment, I do want to point out that this type of scrutiny is why those who suffer abuse continually face the challenge of standing up to their abusers. While I have screenshots of conversations between those involved, I would never disclose them in a public forum and risk any parties' privacy and safety.

Again, I understand your moderation method (e.g., slander), but am pointing out the flaws in being able to improve these situations in our society.

I also grew up there. Yeah my family is there and we are very close. I still have high school friends in the area. I went to Amherst County High School.

It's definitely boring for trying to do anything fun. Having a bunch of young friends helps. We typically go out to bars in downtown. However, whenever I go back I find it so interesting to analyze the differences between there and RVA.

In particular the people act different if you know what I mean. It's a little bet less diverse, a little bit more southern, and perhaps a little bit more close minded. I used to hate Amherst growing up, but I've learned to appreciate the Lynchburg area a little bit more recently now that I don't live there.

Or maybe it just has to do with the fact my parents bought their first house last year in Lynchburg City. Growing up, my parents had their housing sponsored by their employer (double wide trailer) and honestly it was a bit shitty.

If you or anyone else is back in the Lynchburg area and wants to grab a drink let me know. I need more friends when I'm back there for extended periods of time.

Reply to comment by 55V35lM in Got a call from a law firm (Ngyuen-Ballato) that would not tell me why they called unless I gave them my info. Scam? by matthiastrek

Without saying it, you're essentially explaining that, if OPs curiosity gets the best of them, they then willfully provide personal verification details to a third party without any way of verifying they are authentically them and this isn't a phishing attempt for future identity theft or a scam.

OP, that's categorically a Bad Idea™.

If you feel in your gut that something felt weird about that interaction, trust your gut the first time. If they're authentic, they will provide ways to verify they are indeed who they are. Otherwise, literally anyone can say they're from any company and possibly be spoofing their number on Caller ID while doing so.

When I worked at Jersey Mike’s back in the day we did tons of those fuckers.
