So basically in my chem class majority of the class probably failed the first exam. We have not got grades back but everyone in the GroupMe is not feeling good, I think I probably like barley scrapped by with a 70 and from what I have seen I may have gotten the highest grade in the class.

The prof basically politely chewed us out last lecture and just straight up told the class some of us probably just have to drop the course. When I was in Business school for my undergrad degree all my prof's (minus one story for another day) actually wanted us to succeed. My chem prof does not respond to email's, her office hours are literally 1 hour before class no zoom nothing.

I know it is not every one but I see r/EngineeringStudents and see atleast one "my prof" sucks post. Also alot of my peers from undergrad who were STEM who graduated in engineering and comp sci said they were on their own for their entire degree with the occasional godsend professor.

I am just trying to get into med school and know it is hard but not once did I never hear a prof in undergrad tell the entire class to just drop it. I actually heard of an assistant art prof get fired halfway through the semester for saying that along with other things. I am doing good overall so I am not too worried and also the prof is non tenure so if she wants to keep her job there is no way she can just let the entire class fail without higher staff giving her the boot.

It pretty much makes you have to go out and frag to break positive in crim, death fee's just make everyone camp and would make solo que a nightmare. I think the reason they also took it out was because of cheaters imagine dying 5 times to cheaters now your -40 sr for that game.

The deployment fee forces you to frag in order to hit iri. I remember I hit crim in less then 24 hours after the season came out and in my first C1 game we were at 10 kills combined before top 4 and I was still negative sr.

The fact that the season is short by a week because of it is so stupid. I respect the devs trying but this is just common sense nobody cares about it. The only way to get the top rewards is to just quit your job and just no life rank during the season. The only form of leaderboards should be top 250, instead it should be when you hit the first division so Crim 1 for example you get the operator and calling card, second division should be the first camo you are awarded in the ranked series event, and third division should be the animated camo you are given.

If anything it causes people to have to no life more if they want to finish the season at a high rank due to this stupid event. I will give the devs credit for trying but also fire them because 99% of people would rather have normal ranked SR then this stupid ranked series event.

Literally 95% of these kids i meet that are prior iri on these LFG's are still in D1 or barley broken into D2. They have the game sense of a goldfish and the kids I farm in lobbies have prior season iri cards but are lost. Hit crim and when I was anchoring tell me why I had 6 kills all the time meanwhile my fraggers either couldnt pass me or only beat me by 1. Some of yall are gonna have shattered egos after this season.

Hit iri every season and waiting for season 6 but honestly I am not looking forward to mw4 warzone ranked. MW4 warzone feels and looks like a roblox FPS and you would think they would make it good with them being owned by MICROSOFT FOR CRYING OUT LOUD.

MW4 is gonna be a dumpster fire and I imagine warzone will be also, BO6 and BO7 had the best movement (mw3 movement sucks start a war in the comments) omni movement and wall-jumping added a skill gap but ofc we gotta revert it because kids who can't get out of silver are crying.

I enjoy playing ranked but am getting sick and tired of warzone being constantly nerfed because shitters cry. And for everyone disagreeing with me I can't wait to see yall's post when you realize MW4 warzone rank is gonna be fries.

He just commissioned from AFROTC this May and is in UPT when he got drunk off base and got into a scuffle, he is 6’1 around 200 so he did some serious damage to the guy (the guy started the fight) but he knocked the dude out and now the family is pressing charges. Also did not help he left the bar scared and got pulled over and blew over the legal limit (was not swerving but still blew)

Im just a pesky civilian but I am curious how is this gonna work? Is he gonna get kicked out? He is in UPT and told me he can’t afford to get kicked out cause he would have to repay his tuition (he was on a scholarship through ROTC)

Made an update

Hit every every season of bo7 warzone ranked and wanted to share some tips to help yall:

1. Stop taking every gunfight: Your ego is writing checks you can't cash, just because you got first shots and broke someone's armor, they can run away and when you follow them their boys are waiting for you and you die. Similarly stop trying to chall kids on headies and if they have height advantage. You watch one biffle video and think your him, buddy im gonna have to be honest your not him. Also stop pushing teams by yourself, unless your with your team or have one/two knocked don't rush them like its pubs.

2. Life/Placement over kills: This plays into point 1, you could drop 10 kills as a team but still go negative because you were playing reckless, i would rather have 4 kills combined but still hit top 4 and go positive then have 15 kills and go negative SR. Also play like your life depends on it, you have your loadout and see a kid off in the distance and think "i got this" only to die because he heard/saw you and waited for you to run the corner while he is on a god headie.

3. Drop 3 stacking and have an anchor: Because of the cheating epidemic 3 stacking is now a guaranteed way back to the lobby. You can do it up until crim if you want to hit iri, have 2 fraggers running around getting kills while the anchor gets money and keeps you up. THIS DOES NOT MEAN WHEN THE GAME STARTS YOU GO WATER, my god i hate kids like this. This should only be a last resort if you guys are getting put in a blender or your fraggers are burgers (just play for top 4 at that point). And only do it so your fraggers have time to reestablish. Also the anchor should be holding money at all times so incase the fraggers die they wont drop money. Side note when both your fraggers go down you should be by a buy station so you can instantly buy them back.

4. Stop screaming into the mic when you die: I have dealt with so many kids that scream/cry/rage when they die ONE time. Bro chill out, just come back and re-up. If you lost a bullshit gunfight its ok it happens to everyone, but the people that cry and moan every time they die need to understand this is a video game at the end of the day. Your mental state is a big indicator of how the game is gonna go. I even had 3 people this season (2 Crim 2's and an iri) rage quit mid game and because we were squadded up we did not have the protection incase someone DC's. And we still went positive which is crazy.

5. Drop Solo Q'ing: You have no excuse to get mad when there are tons of discord LFG's out there to find people with competent people. BE ADVISED you will still find morons here but atleast you will have coms and switch people if needed. Also every single game you play with new people play a little safe just to see if they are good or will sell your SR. If they are competent then good, if they make dumb plays (everyone has a bad game but bad game sense is unacceptable) drop them and find new people.

I have more I could say but most of it you should also be able to find on your own, part of climbing the ranks is just learning from your mistakes and focusing on what gets you high SR. And remember for everyone saying "I can't hit iri because of cheaters/hacking" is coping I hit iri twice this season while working a 9-5.

Literally 80% of the kids i meet on these LFG discords all claim to be crim/iri and even have the calling cards but as soon as we go in a game they play like plats. I tell people we need an anchor and then they like "anchor is for noobs lets stack" and I literally got squad wiped back to back 2 games in row (sr protection 1st game and -90 next game cause im crim 3). If i played with actual crims/iris literally would hit iri in 2 days. I hit iri every season and crim 2 in MP but my god these drones annoy me.

I know this will be a controversial topic but the other branches send their candidates straight to officer school. Yeah i know if they fail they get reclassed as an E-4 and then needs off the army. Also the whole "people will respect them if they went to basic" is smoke and mirrors. Basic is designed so that the biggest ASVAB waiver can make it through, just turn your brain off and be in the right place at the right time in the right uniform and follow elementary level instructions. You have people that graduate that don't remember anything because basic is Mickey Mouse. Plus we all know a handful of people from basic that if we found out became officers, would write to SecDef asking who authorized their commission.

Your gonna get smoked at OCS so why do we have to send to basic? 09S's should only go to basic IF they fail out of OCS, for some reason the army loves making things more complicated then it needs to be. Again just my humble opinion.
