So this goes back almost 2 years ago with my friends named Taco and his brother named Mudkip. I've known them both for about 3 years. They're both my best friends. This part of the story takes place when I was playing alone with Taco and I told him that I was going to look for his address and he said "bet" showing that he didn't care. He didn't tell me to NOT do it. so I continued... and he started looking for mine as well. After 5 minutes, he did eventually find my address using my parents' first and last names. At the time, I didn't really care until he started making jokes all the time that he's going to send me a pizza or leak it. Basically stuff like that. So of course I started getting scared because I would get grounded for life if my parents ever found out someone online has our address. I can never tell when he's lying or not because it's something I feel like he would do to be funny. So I'm like "I need some leverage so I know that he won't do anything to me" So I used a Grabify link to get his ip and succeeded. IPS and addresses are totally different. An address is where they live, and an IP is your internet that shows your general area like your state and city. Of course, if you know what you're doing, you could DDOS someone with an IP. but he knows I'm not smart enough to do so. after I showed Taco and his brother Mudkip proof that it was indeed their ip, they blocked me for 24 hours. after they unblocked me, I had thought we were good. A Few weeks go by and I decided to invite my friend who so happened to be a girl who goes by Cookie. they were flaming her the entire time because she said "I think Dom(my name) likes me more than you guys" and they went off on her bullying her the entire time which made her cry. Their defense was that "she started it" when all she said was a joke and they took offense to it. After that happened, I felt like Mudkip changed. He randomly started acting hostile towards me whenever we'd play out of nowhere. calling me so many names that if I were to write them all down, we'd be here forever. When we first met, he wouldn't hurt a fly. He felt bad for killing people in Fortnite. I spoke out about it and he said that "I didn't know you were so sensitive about it. My friend jake doesn't care that I do it to him" and Im like "Bro, i'm not jake. Some people are just more sensitive than others and you have to accept that. I don't like being called an idiot so please stop.A few weeks go by and we're making a discord server with all of our friends and I put the same girl Cookie above one of his friends in the discord server because we were going by a rule that whoever we've known the longest, gets to be on top. so that's why I put her above his friends because I had known her for a while. But what I didn't know is that Mudkip was talking about that how long we ALL have known them. I kept putting Cookie above his friend, he kept deleting the changes and then decided to completeley delete the role I had made for Cookie. So I took away his permissions. It was just a huge misunderstanding. Mudkip got mad at me for the entire day after that. Whenever I would comment something about the video game we would be playing, he'd say something toxic to me to get under my skin. Basically acting passively aggressively the entire time. Taco was there but he didn't say anything because he didn't care. One of their other friends named turtle was also there who didn't bat an eye. So I said to Mudkip "Do you want me to just leave right now?" Because I wasn't trying to fight, I was just trying to have fun but we were makin it real hard over something so little. Then He said "Yes please do leave" So I did. At that point, I just wanted a break from him and his toxicity because ever since I invited a girl to play, he switched up on me acting toxic. like I just felt like couldn't have someone in my life who's constantly bringing me down like that. We've talked about how much I don't like it when he does that and he shows that he doesn't care. So I blocked him for 5 minutes and said we're done. And then mudkips brother Taco was saying that I'm an idiot and that I should've just sat there and took it. I don't like it when people constantly attack me for stupid reasons. I just wanted a break. I still wanted to play games with mudkips brother Taco but he ghosted me for 4 days because I didn't wanna talk to his brother Mudkip. I had told Taco not to mention anything to my sisters because I didn't want them making assumptions of me and cookie dating. I told him that 3 times within 3 weeks. After he ghosted me for 4 days, he randomly told my sisters the 1 thing I told him not to do because he was mad at me. I didn't even have beef with taco, he just randomly did that. So I got mad and sent his 2 closest friends, whom they've known longer than me, their IP. something you can't even do anything with pretty much. 1 of the friends named Cashew already had it because he used a grabify to get their IP long before I ever did and they didn't care. But when I did it, it was a problem. And keep in mind that it wasn't their real ip but the wrong one because a year later, they said it wasn't their IP. they sent THEIR closest friends MY ADDRESS even though THEY KNEW THAT IT WASN'T THEIR IP.... So I go and message him about it asking him why he did it and he blocked me for a year! Am I wrong? I'll post pt 2 and 3 in the comments once I write it but you can respond to this story.

I'm talking about the invites bug, which doesn't allow many of us PC players to accept invites at all. It came with the SS4 update, and now it's been going for almost 3 weeks and counting.
For some time there was this weird fix where you had to block the user, unblock him, send him a new friend request and wait for him to accept it and invite you again, and then it worked. But lately not even that works anymore. Added to that, sometimes the invitations never reach their destination.
Many users of other platforms are unaware of this so if you unfriend them or block them then they don't accept your new friendship request, so you just lose them as contacts. Others wonder why you are always inviting them back instead of joining their teams (keep in mind that unless we know the user and/or have their Discord, Reddit, etc..., with most of them there's no way of communicating to explain what's going on).
It is absurd, I feel completely disrespected as a client. I've paid money a few times to support this game I love and they shit on my face like this? When it first happened I assumed they would fix it in hours, one day if most, but no, it's been going on for so long that my fear is that they'll fix it with SS5, in 6 months, a year or who knows if ever? I know of a few friends who got so sick of this that they abandoned the game. I haven't gotten to that point yet but I'm not far from it, the impossibility of playing with people with whom I liked to play is making me really pissed and frustrated.
Just imagine what would happen if Fortnite players weren't able to accept invites from other players for a few hours, let alone 19 days... Epic would never allow such a thing, right? The shit that we Fall Guys players have to put up with...
Rant over.

(tw: mentions of s/h + suicide)
Just to get the record straight, in the scheme of things, I am pretty young. Although I myself may feel mature and have always felt mature, you can never truly predict yourself how mature you are, and I know that I am self aware of that fact. But I am unsure of if I have trauma over this or not and it’s just a friend telling me it is.
At age thirteen I was just starting to make online friends. These were friends of irl friends of mine and it didn’t bother me too much; I was old enough to process the safety risks of it all along with enough real life experience of when to cut people off if a friendship was ever not right. However, I had this one friend who I made myself through tiktok, who was extremely mentally unstable and was younger then me at the time. He was constantly tell me these things about how he wanted to kill himself and how he wasn’t going to be here much longer, sending me pictures and telling me about whenever he s/h, apologising profusely, only to tell me he did it again the next day and the cycle continued.
That was until he started to seem serious about the first thing and it got to the point that he would tell me he was going to do it seemingly every other night for approximately a month, maybe more, and I was always the first person he would go to to tell. I stopped him every single damn time and kept on asking him, begging him even to go talk to a therapist or a teacher or something, and he would always refuse and say they would never help and it would be no use. I personally also understand not wanting to reach out to someone, but it was the only thing thirteen year old me could suggest to twelve year old them living in America. I was really fucking stuck.
That was until things started to look up. They told me they’d told someone and they was looking into therapy and Jesus Christ I was delighted to hear that. Over the goddamn moon if you will.
But after two or so weeks they sent me their suicide note, telling me how they were so sorry for lying about how they’d gotten help but they just couldn’t do this anymore and he’s taken the pills. I had a panic attack right then, my heart felt like it was going to combust as I sat on the phone to a mutual online friend of ours, who is still one of my best friends to this day and is the person who recons I have trauma from this experience. I was bawling my eyes out on the floor at eleven o’clock at night, praying to god who I don’t even believe exists that this mf was still alive.
Until they messaged me and apologised for sending that the next morning.
My friend who was on the phone with me, I’ll call them F for now, who’s two years older then me and literally like an older sibling to me, told me how there is no way this friendship is healthy and how neither of us could do this any longer. So I then had to find a way out.
This guy then went on to tell my friend to kill themself for convincing me of this and then told me how if I left he would 100% do it this time. But this relationship had taken such a toll on, not just me, but F too, that we both eventually blocked him, but not before me trying to have a chat with him to no avail. I felt, and still do feel, so unbelievably bad for cutting him off.
But that’s when I noticed that I still had his number unblocked, when I received a message the next day that he wanted forgiveness and he would change for me and he just wanted to be friends again, but I ended up blocking his number too under the guidance of F.
I later came to realise that I still had I him on Xbox a year later and he was currently playing Fortnite.
But that’s not the only person who’s done that.
Overall I’ve saved over five different people from committing suicide, all of them at least twice, him being at least ten separate occasions. I’m just the person people go to I guess.
But now, getting to the point, I physically panic over random simple messages like “I love you” and “I’m sorry” with no context and it freaks me out. I have POTs (postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome) meaning my heart rate skyrockets whenever I stand and when I experience strong emotions. So when this stuff happens, my heart rate goes into the 120s, I get such bad heart palpitations that I can’t hear anything over it and I start struggling breathing. But I can’t tell anyone about this because then what if it happens again? What if someone else needs me but they can’t come to me because they fear they’ll hurt me? I can’t do that to them. I want to help people. As a friend, that’s what I’m here for. I’m just conflicted I guess.
But are they right? Is F right in believing I may have trauma from this or am I over reacting? I don’t know what to do. It’s been over two years now and I’m still thinking like this, I still check his profile rarely, but I do, to see if he’s still alive. I’ve never told anyone this before but I really don’t know what to think of my own feelings.

Can we pls remove the dogshit of starwars items or for atleast ranked? i get that normal br is for more chilled players, who dont wanna sweat all the time. But Why in Arena, there is like 0% skill anymore. Why? Because people can get a lasersword, that can destroy all your buildings, its unblockable and does 140 damage per hit. Wtf is this bullshit, and also the gravity force thing and the stones. Same with the Attack on Titan Bullshit, that can fly in your buildings and give you 70 dmg hits. These whole thinks just destroy the whole concept of fortnite/building.

Look, i know it has been like this forever and its kinda like a sports game (it certainly is in the mind of 2K) but as great as 2K23 is, it feel like a big DLC... Am i the only one thinking this?
I have not played every modes yet but when i look at the CORE of the game, outside a few minor tweaks in gameplay, its so close to 2k22. Don't fix what ain't broken.. YES i totally agree. But the issue is i don't see a huge difference compare to playing 2k22.
The Roster update is likely the biggest reason anyone would want the new game, wich is understandable, myself included. But if you look at it, i feel all these new characters could had been DLCs and still make solid $. John Cena showcase could also have been a DLC and i would have had no problem paying for that.
So you may ask, then why complain having to buy a new game if you are fine with dropping a solid ammount of $ on DLC add-ons. Well.... the restarting part.
You see, the last week or so i spent tons of hours rebuilding my CAW roster. And altough Community Creation is phenomenal feature and not only save time but also i never was good or patient enough at creating myself (always put my CAWs in a mask cause i sux at facial features) , it still take a lot of time redownloading the wrestlers, adjusting entrance and moves (cause its not always perfect), fixing the renders and so on. Not to mention some amazing CAWs are not yet there. For instance 2k22 has a great Madness Macho Man NWO with entrance and everything i got, but its not on 2K23. Couldn't find a Gisele Shaw either on 2k23 yet while on 2k22 i have 2 different renders i love (wich i made attire 1 and 2 lol, just couldn't decide)
Plus having to restart MyFaction feel such like a chore... Correct me if im wrong but thankfully tough this time no achievements for doing all challenges, just intro challenges wich thanksfully require only ONE online match. It seem the achievements link to the mode are more reasonable. So thumbs up for that. That said i am just not motivated in restarting again EVERYTHING.
I know this is a stable of sports game (ultimate team yada yada) but i don't play other sports games, maybe its why... I have no interest in building a team of cards, i don't even really want to go play other humans in this game anyway. My experience with 2k22 online was not great. As soon as you start winning a bit too much peoples either spam unblockable moves (or very hard to block) and/or quit right away. Im a shooter player so i love playing humans in general but in this game i just have more fun playing the AI and making my matches to my liking.
So to get back on what i was saying, i would love the WWE wrestling game to be some sort of Fortnite type of game. Where its an ongoing experience and just always keep updating with new characters, arenas, and other stuff as the world of wrestling evolve. Of course after a few years a new game would be worth it, due to technical advancements, but i don't feel 1 every year is something needed personally.
It made a lot more sense during the PS2 era as the leap in graphics and gameplay really was obvious (just take Shurt your Mouth vs Here Comes the Pain, its major leap) and also back then updating was not really possible.
NOW tough it is. I mean we should have gotten Toxic Attraction in 2K22 as an update as soon as it became a thing. Community Creation really help there sure, but you can't put custome music sadly and animation in entrances etc ain't perfect.
Anyway sorry for rambling, but i wanted to say it. Oh and PLEASE can we get more CAW spots. Like seriously with the Alternate Attire feature (wich was added to 2K22 originally) its so fun to have multiple attires per wrestlers, but sadly i fill my slots way too fast. THAT is something i would also pay for ...

So this is going to be kinda long, but bc I think this story needs background. My bf, now ex broke up with me two weeks ago because him, me, and his cousin were playing Fortnite together after I got home from school. Afterwards, I was just on my phone, and I wasn't saying much...a word from time to time. I also want to preface him and his cousin are kind of trolls, and would add random people to the calls cuz they thought it was funny and entertaining. There was another girl on the call none of us knew, ands asked why they kept adding her, and I had said a dumb comment saying, "oh its cuz this guy thinks ur sexy," referring to my bf's cousin. It was a stupid joked then they exchanged a couple sentences and that was that. A little later I had made a comment about my cat, to which the cousin replied something and I had said "I feel bad for u that u dont know what it is to love an animal." I also included my bf to the convo and said "______would never love his dog outside all day." The cousin replied that's not true how? I replied with "u always say u want ur birds to fly away and that u guys always leave ur dogs outside." I also knew my bf was very weird about me speaking to him cuz there had been issues in the past where he had twisted what I said or did and turned it into me doing something wrong, so I was hyperaware of that. I didn't think anything I said was wrong or bad in any way. It felt completely normal. Then all of a sudden I get a text from my bf and he screenshots to me an anonymous post about a guy asking if arguing back and forth is flirting basically. Then he sent me an anonymous reply to the post and it basically said it could be flirting and harmless or it could be they really dont like each other. I also want to preface that I met them at the same time and we were all friends for a long time before him and I even thought of dating. We would all talk on FaceTime all the time..even leading up to this event. I was completely oblivious and thought he was sending it as a funny thing he saw because I really didn't know anything was wrong.
Then I replied with something funny and he said he sent it referring to me and the cousin. I knew where it was going, and I started to worry. He escalated very quickly and said that I flirted with the cousin and cheated on him. I repeatedly asked what I said to which he replied "I dont fucking remember im not a recorder...I know what I heard." Then he went on to say he heard me flirting for 20 minutes, which made no sense to me, and he said why did I say whatever so many times. He was so convinced, I started to believe it and question myself and my intuition/reality of how I felt and what I remembered I said. Afterwards, he blocked me after I explained that's not at all what I remembered happening, and I felt so confused. He blocked me after. The next morning he unblocked me to ask if we could still be friends. I said no because I loved him, and I wanted to be with him and to find a resolution. He got very angry again...saying mean things to me like "you're no good," "you're no good to me anymore," "I will never trust you again," "I never wanna be with you again," "how could you flirt in front of my face with my cousin." I was beyond confused and hurt. He blocked me again, and I got very triggered. I reached out to him any way I could, and we eventually spoke later, but no resolution came out of it. I was heartbroken, confused, hurt, etc. I reached out again through a text free app the next day, and I told him I dont understand why this happened, and he kept saying that I had said whatever so many times. He had stopped mentioning the 20 minute thing because I kept telling him I know for a fact I spoke not even for two minutes about his cousins animals and I included him in the conversation, so he just kept sticking to the idea that the cousin said whatever, then I said whatever multiple times. I dont even remember saying whatever once, let alone multiple times. Even if I had said whatever I know my intention, and my heart, and I know him, so I didn't understand why he was being so irrational about it and not hearing me. Then I explained how could I have said it multiple times if I barely remember saying it once? I genially dont know what to do. It's been two weeks, and I have reached out a few times. As my last ditch effort, I even drove over to his town to see if he'd wanna talk about it in person, and ofc he didn't. He got very angry and said to get the fuck out of his town and I was a cheater, and no good to him..etc, etc. I was absolutely defeated and hurt.
I felt unheard, and I just didn't understand why my truth or intention or reality didn't matter in this. His last messages to me were that he believed I flirted with his cousin and nothing and no one could change his mind, and to leave him alone. Still, I feel this guilt and sadness because I dont understand how this all happened. I keep thinking about that conversation on ft that night, and can't remember anything else I said besides that small side convo about the cousins animals. I dont understand how it was taken as flirting or wrong I just dont get it. I even asked the cousin after if he could remember what I said, and he said I just spoke about his animals and talked shit for a second about how him and his family treated his pets. He didn't remember me saying whatever. I reached out to the other girl on the call that doesn't know any of us and she said all she remembered was me talking about some animals to the cousin and that I had said whatever once. I showed him screenshots of that convo, to which ofc he didn't care. He was just full of hatred. He didn't care about talking about it rationally. He was just convinced about what he somehow heard, yet he couldn't tell me what I said or remembered what I said, which seems like an important thing you'd remember if you're accusing your partner of cheating. It's literally been eating at me because I have no clear answer that has answered my questions or doubt.
He never cared to reach out to his cousin to talk about it or even tell him the real reason why we broke up. I had even reached out to his friend to see what he told him about what the reason was, and he said he did mention that I flirted with the cousin which is why we broke up..but didn't go into detail. Mind you, this isn't the first time he accused me or blamed me for something I didn't do. He would also break up with me for reasons so insane, Id have to make a whole separate post about it. I always wanted to fix it and always ended up saying im sorry even though I know I didn't do anything wrong, and id feel guilt. I am also in nursing school, so I mention that bc he was the only person I carved time for, went out of my way for, showed him how much I cared...and he still somehow thought I did that in front of him on a ft call that he was on with his cousin. I have been literally so beyond hurt and confused as to how he was able to act as if he doesn't care. Blocked me on everything. Said very mean things to me, and just left. I have never been accused of being a cheater in my life, and this has been really affecting me. Everyone around me says I should be happy hes out of my life but im struggling because I never thought this was going to happen like this, and because I miss him and want to speak to him to badly to find a resolution to this. Opinions/advice is welcomed and encouraged because I dont know what to do.

I think it is about time Fortnite took the next step in its evolution by eliminating all guns. People didn’t fall in love with this game by shooting pump shotguns, tac’s or heavy snipers. The players demand more unblockable laser beams that spray from our tits. How hard is it for them to just hit delete on their keyboard and get rid of these stupid guns that require aim and strategy to use correctly? Listen to the player base for once. We demand never ending collabs that introduce game breaking items. As a concession, maybe just keep the guns in game that have such terrible bloom that you only hit 1 out of 40-50 shots with gold rarity. Most guns in the current loot pool should work but ideally we would prefer all the makeshift weapons return instead.

We were playing fortnite and I was clapping the 2v1 low diff then he starts shit talking which I ignore (former overwatch player) then he starts team killing which just gets him killed more, thenn oh boy he said "f*ck you I'll rape your grandmother" so I just mute him and after a few minutes my cousin is telling me to unmute him
After I don't my cousin calls me with the phone to the mic so his friend could talk to me and he asked for me to unmute him and I hang up
now I'm telling my cousin he needs to cut this guy out of my life cause this isn't his first offense, it's just the first time he's said it infront of someone who isn't my cousin then Mf has the audacity to convince my cousin to give him my number which he calls me so I just block him completely and kick him from the party.
Every now and then he makes my cousin call me just to try asking to be unblocked
They're both 10 years old and me and my cousin have the same grandma

If you want to play Fortnite but it's been blocked in your country, you can use a VPN. A VPN will give you a better connection to Fortnite servers and protect your privacy while playing. In this post, I'll recommend the best VPN for Fortnite and show you how to use it.

Fortnite has been blocked in many countries

Fortnite has been blocked in many countries because of its violence and graphic content. The game has also been criticized for its addictive nature and for being a "pay-to-win" game. Some countries have even gone so far as to ban the game completely. If you live in one of these countries, you can use a VPN to access Fortnite. A VPN will also allow you to play Fortnite if your ISP has blocked it.
A VPN is a tool that encrypts your internet traffic and routes it through a server in another location. This allows you to bypass restrictions and access websites or services that are normally not available in your country.
There are many different VPN providers, but not all of them are suitable for Fortnite. Some VPNs are too slow or unreliable, which can lead to laggy gameplay or even getting disconnected from the servers. Others may not work with Fortnite's anti-cheat system, which can result in getting banned from the game.
That's why I've tested and compiled a list of the best VPNs for Fortnite. All of the VPNs on my list have been carefully selected based on their speed, security, and compatibility with Fortnite.

A VPN can help you play Fortnite

A VPN can help you play Fortnite in a number of ways. First, if the game is blocked in your country, a VPN can unblock it. Second, a VPN can give you a better connection to Fortnite servers. And third, a VPN can protect your privacy while playing.
If you live in a country where Fortnite is blocked, a VPN can help you access the game. A VPN does this by encrypting your internet traffic and routing it through a server in another location. This allows you to bypass restrictions and access websites or services that are normally not available in your country.
A VPN can also give you a better connection to Fortnite servers. This is because a VPN can reduce latency and improve ping times. Ping time is the amount of time it takes for data to travel from your computer to the Fortnite server and back again. A lower ping time means a better connection and smoother gameplay.
Finally, a VPN can protect your privacy while playing Fortnite. When you connect to the internet without a VPN, your ISP (internet service provider) can see everything you do online. This includes what websites you visit, what videos you watch, and what games you play. If your ISP knows you're playing Fortnite, they could throttle your connection or even block you from playing altogether. But when you connect to the internet with a VPN, your ISP can only see that you're connected to a VPN server—they can't see what you're doing online. This means they won't be able to throttle your connection or block you from playing Fortnite.

If you're looking for a VPN that will help you play Fortnite without any worries about your privacy, then PIA is a great choice.

• ExpressVPN:

ExpressVPN is a VPN service provider based in the British Virgin Islands. The company was founded in 2009, and its features include military-grade encryption, a kill switch, and DNS leak protection. ExpressVPN has servers in 94 countries, and its 30-day money-back guarantee makes it a great choice for those who want to try out a Fortnite VPN for the first time.
When it comes to security, ExpressVPN is one of the best in the business. Its military-grade encryption standards ensure that your data is safe from prying eyes. And its kill switch feature protects you from accidentally revealing your IP address if your connection to the VPN server drops. DNS leak protection prevents your ISP from seeing which websites you are visiting even if the VPN connection is lost.
ExpressVPN's large server network means that you can always find a server that is close to your location. This is important for two reasons. First, it ensures that you get the best possible speeds when using ExpressVPN. Second, it means that you are less likely to experience any lag when playing Fortnite or other online games.
One of the great things about ExpressVPN is its customer support. If you ever have any problems using the service, you can contact customer support 24/7 via live chat or email. And because ExpressVPN keeps no logs of user activity, you can be sure that your privacy will always be protected.

How to use a VPN for Fortnite

To use a VPN for Fortnite, follow these steps:

1. First, sign up for a VPN service. I recommend NordVPN.
2. Next, download and install the VPN software on your device.
3. Once installed, launch the NordVPN application and connect to a server in a country where Fortnite is available.
4. Now open the Fortnite launcher and log in. That's it! You should now be able to play Fortnite without any restrictions.

A VPN can give you a better connection to Fortnite servers and can also protect your privacy while playing. When using a VPN with Fortnite, I recommend connecting to a server that is close to your location for the best possible speeds.

Conclusion

There are many benefits to using a VPN for Fortnite. A VPN can give you a better connection to the game servers, and can also protect your privacy. In order to get the most out of a VPN, it is important to choose a VPN with a large server network and high speeds. You can refer to Anonymistic's guides for more detailed info about VPNs.

TLDR: breakup with Girlfriend of 2 years for a month then back together. Wondering if this means she slept with someone or if I'm just overthinking things. (M22) (F20)
Alright so me and my ex broke up like September 19th right? and she walked out one morning after like a really really really f***ed up night and i did some really f*cked up sh** and she texted me saying she can’t do this anymore and i was like wtf and asking and sh** and she was just like ima block u now. so she blocks me on everything right? deleted all our pics on insta and sh** and I was going insane. I kept making TextNow numbers and texting her a ton of sh** u know what I mean? and she would not respond at all. after like the first week i just tried everything to not think about it but i was still going insane. I was doing hella ketamine and drinking hella every day and taking hella dr**s at night to sleep. and I went to arizona to visit my friend cuz he and his brothers go to clubs and sh** and I got super wasted all weekend and didn’t wanna f*** anyone else and i was still tryna text her and she just wouldn’t reply. fast forward 3 weeks and i ask for my sh** back from her and she finally replied and she left it at my door when I was asleep and I woke up and I was like wtf u dropped it off? and I told her it wasn’t there and someone must’ve taken it just so she’d talk to me 📷 then I kept texting her and she randomly just asked if i wanted to f*** in like October. and she’s a theta at utd. so she started coming over and hanging and sh** and like a week after we spent like 5 days together she leaves to go hang w her friends and she ended up going to a frat Darty w people there I knew she used to f*** at least 2. and she didn’t reply all day and I was like wtf. then she came over that night and I didn’t know she went there. and I asked her if she was going to parties and sh** and she said yeah. i asked her if she f***ed or kissed or did anything w anyone and she said no. i was like Ight I have no choice to believe u ya know?
so she’s hanging w her friends way more than when we were dating and sh** and it’s whatever but she barely texted me when she was at her friend’s apartment all the time and she’d stay w her friends watching Netflix till like 2 or 3 or 4 or maybe 5 idk but idk I’m just a strict guy if I’m being completely loyal and I’m only putting effort and energy into that person I’m with u know? cuz like when im w my friends everyone usually always has their phone out or I was texting her ya know? Idk im just insecure but I have reasons.
anyway we talked and said we were exclusive and we agreed and i woke up the next day and she was in the bathroom locked in there with my phone bruh. i didn’t think i needed to change my password cuz when we dated i was always the one who went thru her phone and she rarely wanted to go thru mine but i was like breh. and I grabbed her phone and she had changed her password when we were broken up I guess. but I was like lemme see your phone bruh and grabbed it when she opened it and she had bumble and tinder w like 1000 matches and sh** and i was like brehhhhhh and i felt sick af. and then i saw pics and vid’s of her and friends dressing up for that frats pool party and she was wearing and a see thru right rave thing she wore w me and a bottom that looked like panties and a swimsuit top and and i was like what is this bruh when was this lmao and i peeped the date and it was like 2-3 days after we agreed exclusive and she knows if she getting my dick or being w me she knows her going to parties and bars and sh** ain’t and allowed and I was like bro wtf is this.
i was like did you dress up like this because you like attention from frat guys or what bruh like damn that kinda makes me sick to see wtf ya know? and anyway i try moving on and just not thinking about sh** and like a month goes by right? and one week we go to Florida and then next week is thanksgiving and she goes homes to her family for like 8-9 days and she came back for like 4 days and then went to Costa Rica w her sister and parents for their anniversary for 10 days and like 5 days in she didn’t text me for like 6 hours and i understand her connection was probably ass but i just wanted a text ya know? and then the next day i went on her insta and looked thru her following and she was following all the guys i hate type sh** like the guys she had blocked for a year and a half and my stomach sank and i asked her i was like bruh why the f*** didn’t you unfollow them? were y’all f***ing or talking or doing some sh**? cuz im crazy ya know? and she was like i just went on my blocked list and followed the people cuz it made me feel in control when we were broken up and i was like bruh wtf?? you literally unblocked every girl in my blocked on snap and instagram so I couldn’t unblock them lmfaooo and then u go and follow everyone i made u block and it’s been a month in and you still following dudes who you know i hate and some have had their dick in you?? and then i played video games for like 45 mins and I finally checked my phone and she texted me like 10 times and was like “damn ima make my account private ur snooping lol” like wtf kinda comment is that to make hoe?? and then she was like i blocked everyone im sorry and i didn’t reply for like 30 mins playing video games and I checked and she was like alright f*** you bro bye. and then she blocked me on everything and i was like f*** this dumb bitch breh. then next day i texted her on TextNow number and she was being a bitch and barely replying so the next day i was like f*** it im not texting her and i didn’t text her that whole day and the next day and then i randomly texted her after 4 days cuz i was like bruh and she was about to come back from Costa Rica and she started being nice and sh** and told me to come over when she got back and she acted like nothing happened and she didn’t block me for 4 days lmao? then i grab her phone and start peeping it and i found on tik tok u can see recently deleted messages now and i was like oh sh**.
i peeped it and most of it was just bs sh** but there was this one Indian guy I had asked her about last year cuz he was facetiming her and asking her to lunch and i was like tf? and she was like he’s this skinny short Indian kid relax and im like damn is it only hot guys i should worry about? and she had deleted their texts she was texting him while she had me blocked when she was in Costa Rica. I read the texts and it looked like he was tryna kinda flirt w her and she wasn’t really flirting but she was replying and i was like wtf is this bruh are u f***ing serious? and she didn’t know i could check her deleted texts and i start going off on her like damn u really deleted texts w niggas asking u to make a playlist w him while u got me blocked over literally nothing and ur in Costa Rica w ur fam? and then i checked her snap and i saw a name of a frat chi phi and it was at the top and i was like tf? and i opened it and it was for a party in 5 days from that day and all her friends were in the chat and i was like tf is this?? who added u to this?? and then i saw some dude added her back like the +1 thing u know? and i was like you’re adding back guys while we’re exclusive ????? what the f***???? ah hell nah and then she started apologizing and sh** and told me she added everyone from that chat while she was in Costa Rica “because she was mad at me and was done” lol.
i know for a fact she’s f***ed 2 guys in delt that i know for sure and im almost 100% sure there’s at least 1 or 2 more and she’ll literally never tell me and it makes me sick when i was thinking about it. But she let me become friends w a guy in that frat for a long while and i remember i asked her multiple times like who she f***ed who i didn’t wanna encounter ya know? and i asked if they had ever done anything multiple times and she was always like “omg Mathias ew that’s Kaison we’ve only been friends cuz of my sorority don’t be gross lmao”
and then one night i was super drunk and f***ed up and me and that dude were playing fortnite and we got off and i was thinking and i FaceTimed him and he was wasted too and i was like is there anything i need to know about Imaan and he told me she gave him head and i almost threw up instantly and i hung up and blocked him and i wanted to kms and when she woke up instead of just apologizing and taking sh** she was being so weird and mean like saying who told you that????? and i was like it’s true isn’t it? and she started apologizing and i asked and she yeah i f***ed him too and i was like oh hell nah and i was being so f***ing mean for like a day or 2 like actually making her cry and i thought that was so weird and f***ed up that she lied so like no wonder i was always worried.
but anyway i was asking you if i was being dumb af believing the things she would always tell me and ignoring signs i thought were obvious like her going to those parties or her talking to dudes she used to f*** at parties while we were broken up and then when i look her dead in the eyes and tell her i didn’t f*** anyone while we were broken up or kiss or touch anyone and she told me no she didn’t do sh**. and I tried to press her a lil here and there to see if maybe she did do something or some sh** you feel me? and she started getting upset when I’d ask about it cuz she said all i ever did was repeat that question and she told me 50 times and she’s being honest. so I had to no choice to believe her right?
anyway this is long af my b i just wanna know in your opinion do you think she was f***ing w someone or people and she just won’t tell me ever cuz she’s scared and also she would know that’s the 1 thing that would’ve made me not want her anymore? or do u think she was telling the truth and all she did was follow them but never talked on text or snap or sum and when she went to parties she didn’t flirt with anyone even the guy Alejandro she f***ed who she told me she talked to while at the delt party and i was like bruhh and i was like damn u fr just talking to the guys you’ve f***ed before and you’re right back at frat parties? she told me they didn’t talk much and they talked about some school aid thing and just said hi. would you believe all they talked about was some school aid thing and said hello after she followed him on instagram after a year and a half and he followed her back and then they were at at the very very minimum 2. and im not even sure how many she went to in that month lmao. and i saw on her spam she had posted texts i sent her and was being mean and her friends were commenting and some of em were like “it’s ok frat parties this week!!📷 or “we’re going to delt this weekend w the girls”
everything im typing out, makes me feel dumber and dumber but either im just crazy and everything im saying is overthinking and i hope that’s what it is or im ignoring obvious signs she was f***ing someone else and she may have not liked it and then came back to me or sum. idk bruh please read this and lmk what u think this took mad long to type 📷 thanks

(Mind you guys, I'm not saying in this post that I'm against blocking VALORANT. I agree that I received it legally, in violation of the terms of use. I'm saying I'm against blocking COMPLETELY in other games that are clearly not about Riot Games.)
Yesterday I decided to download cheats on VALORANT, nothing foreshadowed trouble, it was even a little fun, but here are the consequences...
After 4 (approximately) hours, I decided to go play Dead by Daylight and before I could play even one game, I was thrown into the lobby with a ban icon. At first, I did not understand what had happened and decided to run DbD again, thinking that it was just a mistake. But on the next launch, I was shown that I had been banned.
I didn't give it a damn and just created a support ticket asking why I got banned. And my adventures didn't end there. I decided, among other things, to launch Fortnite and play it. But you won't believe it, there's this story: ban immediately after I played one game. And only after that I saw a pattern: cheating in VALORANT and all these bans are connected. After studying the issue in more detail, I came to the conclusion that I was banned for HWID (in other words, it's a lock on computer components).
Realizing that the problem could not be solved - I began to write tickets everywhere with the help of unbanding the account at least in Fortnite (It meant a lot to me, and losing it was too painful for me).
Epic Games support responded very quickly, but didn't make me happy. They said that there was no error in the block and I REALLY cheated (and I, remember, cheated only in VALORANT). Now I have written another ticket with a full acknowledgement and description of this situation.
To sum up my post, what do I want to say? Guys, never cheat, no matter how much you would like to, because it can end extremely badly (as in my case). And yes, maybe someone has faced a similar situation? How did you get out of it? Have you unblocked accounts in other projects?

When my son's (child) account tries to play Minecraft on Xbox it says his account cannot join Realms or online games due to privacy settings. I've followed the FAQ on Microsoft's website and unblocked the 2 settings it identified (allow multiplayer and join clubs) but it still won't let him play. I even tried unblocking everything just to see if it would change anything but still nothing. Every other game lets him play no issue, Fortnite, Rocket League, Destiny and a few others.
Has anyone else encountered this issue?

I am an Xbox user who needs help adding a friend on fortnite he is on Playstation. I blocked him on accident and unblocked him and tried to add him but it keeps failing to send a request but if it doesn't say it failed to send a request it doesn't appear by his friend request same for me. He does have over 920 friends added if that could be the issue. Can someone please help by giving me a solution

I recently upgraded my pc from a gtx 960 to a rtx 3060 along with a new CPU, CPU cooler, fans and more storage in a form of a m.2.
This upgrade worked wonders for many of my games but there is a slight problem that is easy to solve but hard to find and that is the locked 128fps in games that have high FPS and that's because I set my v sync option to fast and I know this because before this because when playing Fortnite on my 960 the v sync was normal but off in game and I was getting 200fps.
I had this problem before on ghostrunner demo where I had a locked 128 FPS no matter the settings and DLSS and was fixed by just turning v sync from fast to off completely in Nvidia control panel.
I could do the same with Fortnite and valorent but the problem is that the games don't appear on Nvidia control panel for some reason and they are always locked at 128 FPS and also they behave very differently.
In valorent the FPS is locked at 128 even though I set it to 144 but when I unblock it it's goes up to 300 FPS .
In Fortnite the FPS is locked at 128 all the time no matter if frame lock is off or on.
So that's my problem, some might say to just turn v sync off on global but I can be bothered going through each game and changing the v sync option for each game.
It might be a bit different to understand the problem but for those who do understand, please explain why epic games games are not appearing on the Nvidia control panel?
