I know that cheating ruins games and all, but straightaway opening a hole on my system because of such isn’t the right way to deal with it.

Will do! Thanks for the tip.

Yep. And I still play from time to time, despise getting my arse served by most players. And I’ve got to admit that hand tension is exactly -THE- “main” problem for me, despise trying to be as relaxed as possible with drinks and the like. I do have lots of “Why my crosshair isn’t moving to where I want it to go?” moments due to it.

…and I… (kind of) given up, honestly. I’m about to be a 40 year old geezer, so eh.

Indeed. Theres also burst firing, which can get significantly easier/more “natural”. Or when you are an old chap like me who panicks all the time, lessening the effect quite significantly as well.

That is an interesting take, which (also) makes sense – each millimeter matters when you are using a weapon that demands the most precision in order to hit your targets. And multitasking with your “aiming hand” can mean the difference between being able to hit your target or not. Even so while burst firing.

Heh, I’m also a old fart – 40 years old. Still, anxiety can also be a problem since it makes you anticipate your shots or freak out easily.

Well, I tried this idea with Planetside 2 (Which is a very “messy” game where it can easily use more than 10 hotkeys at a time) and it started to feel “natural” after 30 minutes - 1 hour of gaming. And can’t really give you a key mapping that will work for you “just like that” but try placing your “non-aiming” hand at the keyboard (right over your commonly used movement keys) and pay attention to where your finger(s) are and change your shooting hotkey to where one of your “non-occupied” fingers are. Then test it for a while, and see if it “feels right”. If it doesn’t, then switch to something else.

As for me, left shift felt more “natural” since I use WASD and my left hand (when relaxed) lands exactly to where the left shift key is.

Have fun.

Yes. Like left shift instead of left mouse click.

And I honestly don’t know.

Are you talking about remapping your mouse buttons to keyboard buttons?

Exactly.

I’ve no idea. But yeah, it does work wonders.

There’s no “motives” when they don’t exist – you just extrapolated the whole thing for the sake of lack of arguments.

And resorting to low blows won’t prove you right and neither set me as “wrong”, but only show you that you’ve let yourself get emotionally triggered in a 3 minute long convo.

“It tells a lot about you” indeed. :^)

I rest my case.

And I said that it is a pointless conversation to have.

Why are you bringing so many random problems/issues out of this? That (most likely) not even exist let alone happen? It’s just a conversation, not a threat. If anything, it tells a lot about you, heh.

there is something called discretion.

…and I said to call (whoever is troubling you) in particular and bring the issue up = discretion. And using your words well, you can even talk about someone’s lack of hygiene/odor.

If you hold secrets and do not tell the whole thing (even the most disgusting stuff) to your SO… then it means that s/he is not that “special” anymore.

I mean, a relationship is never meant to be one-sided, but a “You and me” thing. And if you don’t think like that, then you are doing it wrong.

“So you are telling me to just throw random disgusting stuff to my SO?”

No. Call him/her in particular, “Hey can we talk a bit?”. It does wonders, that is all I can say about it.

t. Used to “play the tough guy” back in my early years. Took the “My life is an open book” route. Never looked back since then.

Broom.

It does not make funny beep bops but damn it surely does clean stuff!

There’s Thorium… which is basically “The same thing but with lots of tweaks”.

If it starts to make you do weird/senseless things like waving your cellphone in the air to stop the government from tracking you or similars, then yeah… that’d be a liiiiiiiiiiiittle too much.

I use either one or both of my hands to dive the food into an unknown world inside my mouth.

Pineapple on pizza.
