Only a couple hundred calories???? that's literally an extra meal or a bag of chips that someone can eat every single day that someone else cant. I have a bad metabolism, and I've dieting. I've found success in analyzing what one food will do to my weight and what I have to give up if I want something and keep losing weight. If I want to eat a bag of chips I literally half to skip out on a meal and half to compensate and run for like half an hour. Someone with a good metabolism doesn't. that's literally me waking up at 8 am and not eating until 3 o'clock where I eat the bag of chips. fucking insane what "a few hundred calories" means

I specifically just said that the people they are trying to please don't realize that the individual they are fat shaming are not obese and that is what their weight should be. It isn't about their health. Its about not wanting to be made fun of.

Also leave telling people they are obese to their health care provider. Its not your business to be saying that shit to someone. All it does is make them feel bad. Chances are they already feel bad. Some might even be trying really hard but they are frustrated. Losing weight takes time. Rather than being a douche by constantly reminding them they are fat you should give them some positive encouragement if and only if they seek it from you.

edit: its a bit different with family. you helping your dad is completely different from being a peer in class and saying "hey you need to lose weight, you look fat"

Generally because allot of people fat shame people who look a little fat but are actually healthy. Especially when they go to a dietitian or a doctor and they say that the person is at their target weight yet they get ridiculed among their peers for being fat. Not to mention that some people get to eat way worse and still be skinny than others. Its a fucking privilege to eat pizza/candy everyday of high school and not gain weight especially when the exact same people ridicule others for being fat. All the while the "fat" people are cutting meals and feeling both physical and emotional pain day in and day out to please some retard who doesn't know what hes talking about. I think you should reconsider what you are saying.

edit: im not talking about people who are clearly eating tons of junk food and are very very fat.

edit2: im not even going into how the food industry has practically gotten us addicted to sugar and fat, and how many people cant resist the urge because they got hooked on it from a very very young age. I watched a documentary called "fed up" where they talk about obesity problems in america. one of the things they speak of is 5 month year old babies who are obese, how the fuck is a 5 month year old baby supposed to control what he eats or exercise.

why not just put this as an lft thread. if i was looking for players i would look there

I have anger in that scouts have to deal with like 3 things ever and those are granary, the direct hit killing them in 1 shot, and mini sentries and they still complain.

I'm just gonna say despite any head admin stuff:

a.) I wouldn't have gotten into comp without UGC and I started in highlander (didnt know ESEA existed until I heard about it from people playing in newbiemixes)
b.) Generally the admins were understanding and made decisions well (at least from my point of view in my experience)
c.) Highlander is a game mode and it is fun to some people. Personally I don't care for Highlander. The issue is that people play Highlander and it takes away from people who do 6v6. This season both Jaguar and I denied many tryouts who were good players but also played Highlander because we wanted to scrim on Sunday and Monday but there are teams that don't do that and have Highlander players. There is an issue, in my opinion, where players play only Highlander and not 6v6.

Generally reasons tend to be:
a.) its not fun. (valid reason but allot of HL players who play this play a 6v6 lobby and say 6v6 is not fun. That usually isn't the case the other way around. Most people who play 6v6 will say "I used to play Highlander but 6v6 is so much better"

b.) Toxicity of 6v6 players (in my experience highlander players are by far more toxic and i'm a person who experienced wpj power pugs as an iron medic...)

c.)They don't have time ( there are many people who play 6v6 who only play 1-2 scrims a week or only matches)

d.) They cant play their class/their class isn't played in 6v6. (valid only if you enjoy playing strictly one class 100% of the time. In our scrims our flank scout legit sac's and plays sniper many of our stalemates, unskilled will sack and go spy a few times, engi is almost always used on last (mini sentry or not), heavy is used as well not only on last holds but last pushes. The only class that doesn't receive much use is the pyro, which is why we have a "update" coming soon that's supposed to attempt to "fix" pyro.

tldr: Highlander players who only play HL for the most part haven't played 6v6 enough to make a good decision on whether they like HL or not. however 6v6 players who play HL generally try to play both or say that they like 6v6 better and it's more skilled and HL is very aids.

also ugc admins were fine imo.

except people shouldnt be sandbagging so its not the moveup's fault but the sandbaggers.

what happened to spaceghost

To add to that make sure to put it in the role_request. Put in your name, role(coach or admin), day/time available.

this thread should be stickied tbh

i know multiple people in "high open low/mid Im" that would like to coach including myself.

So now its possible for murkscribe's team to have a match against Sparkle gang? thanks.

Thank you sandbagging open teams for not deciding to play IM instead. Hope you are happy cuz i sure am not.

3-5 teams in IM means at least league fees, if not a month of premium on top of that, and whatever subs are used as leaders try to keep their dying team alive. That's $270-$450 in just league fees. For a base 18-30 players with premium for each one added to the previous totals, it comes to $396-$660 and that's not even including any subs used.

TLDR: MONEY MATTERS

Maybe I'm wrong but I feel like if 2-3 teams moved up then you wouldn't be stomped all season because then those bottom 3-4 teams would be about equal and it wont be 1 team vs. mid/high invite.
