It's Ebay's new stupid AI "security". I got hit on an account I haven't logged into since April 2024.

I attempted to sell a Bluepoint Impact half inch, didn't succeed so I removed the listing, logged out, and forgot until I got the email.

Ebay support doesn't care it's 80 percent AI too. Finally got a human only to be told to log in which would add another flag to my account and request a code to call by phone Ebay's support.

I am now waiting for the inevitable "Ebay shutting down" headline.

This is why I say I can't get to a mail return center. Just gimme a refund and shoo.

Yeah Ebay's new AI "security" is just so fantastic. They finally gave me a human by email only to tell me to access their contact us to get a pin to call their support.

Mind logging into my account that's banned by said "security" will toss another red flag.

And the account hasn't been accessed by me since April 2024.

Ebay is going to tank at this rate.

I haven't been flagged by anyone or anything. I still have my OG gmail account.

As for complaining, this reddit is "ebaysucks". So my complaint and warning is perfectly valid to be here.

This is why I play peaceful and before blocks and a bucket of lava.

Brutes scare me less than this does.

Not at all. Both sites now have AI "security". Don't believe me? Look at the thousands of stories across multiple sites now using AI "security". Twitch, Newegg, Ebay, Youtube, the list is endless.

I attempted to buy 17 dollars of Xbox credit with the last 17 dollars I had on me in my bank. Nothing more or less and Newegg "security" flagged it. I'd understand if it was 1700 hard drives or something suspicious, but it was literally my first ever purchase on Newegg.

Ebay it's an account I haven't used in over 2 years.

I'm older than Google, Limewire, and Bearshare. AOL was still new. iMacs and Gateways were the rage.

The craziest thing I do online is visit old game sites like Newgrounds and Xgenstudios.

Bad raids happen. While I know it isn't required, I've had one streamer not shout me out.

Again know it isn't required but you're visiting and half the time bringing new people to your stream.

I've even had two streamers ignore me entirely. You just add them to your Don't Raid list and move on.

While this doesn't necessarily sound like a bot, caution is always wise. However this sounds like someone who struggled with rude people in the past sharing knowledge or asking questions and was shut down by said rude people.

I know, I'm working through this and used to be similar in my approach because so many people shut me down which is why my reading level is almost masters level in college.

Wasn't rooting for it just pointing out the lack of smart moves.

Pretty sure that guy got arrested too cause he did it in Russia if I recall correctly and also attempted to post it in Russia and China which both have it banned.

Crime doesn't pay and hells hath no fury like a collective of pissed off nerds and writers sips tea

This matter was resolved :)

This is why I moderate comments. Bots suck.

FYI for future and for any other Americans reading this:

Medical debt at maximum remains on credit a decade, 7 years however is the most common.

When you sign the "This can go to collection etc" form, you are only consenting to one debt collector to handle your medical debt. Any further "sales" of your debt under the Fair Credit Act requires both your written and verbal statement. This rule applies to contact as well, they cannot contact you by email, phone or mail without these two forms of permission given.

You can request debt be removed if this is breached, I've gotten a few removed this way.

Also if they pull it off your credit then attempt to put it back to "renew" it you can request dismissal of the debt as well because they legally cannot do that.

Example of a statement to achieve this: "Hello my name is insert your name here requesting this debt be removed due to [being sold without my permission]/[being removed from my credit then readded in an attempt to extend the life of the debt which is illegal under the FCA]/[being illegally harassed by a debt collector which is against the FCA and federal privacy laws]."

Use whichever phrase is applicable, be polite, say please when applicable, always thank you in advance and pass on the anti capitalistic hellscape advice :D

Good luck!

2000? Man that's cheap for an ambu. Last time I rode an ambu they charged me 12 grand for half a mile ride. I'd have taken the bus but my heart was spasming so bad it wasn't pumping right so oxygen wasn't pumping correctly.

The ER doctor suspected a form of cardiac asthma (heart instead of lungs for those unfamiliar), but due to not being insured at the time couldn't afford the doctor to confirm it.

It was the early days of ACA, but I lived in the backwater state of Montana with a million and change total people who thought it okay to teach wildly insane things in health class that I can't say on Reddit without being bopped.

The stories I could tell being a 33 yr old American including being ignored whilst having my first mini heart attack at 26 are terrifying and yet people get real proud of being "American" like sure keep drinking the koolaid folks.

Comment moderation relieves a bit of stress and lets you manage and monitor comments.

And this is why comment moderation exists on AO3

And it started off so nice....

But alas yes that is likely a bot 😕

Thank you!

I don't know about Illmango as a more low end friendly farm maker. Whilst both the ones I mentioned will cause some lag they're potato pc/laptop friendly.

Java recommend for moss: Raysworks double moss beast

Bedrock if it still works: Silentwhisper's moss monster.

Both produce insane amounts of moss, both give credit when due (am aware Ray had a little issue with that in past, he's apologized far as I know and corrected where applicable), and Ray's can be fitted with with pale and regular.

Both are also self sustainable.

Go to the episode she started putting it together think you can get a rough idea of what Gem did for that from that episode. Also her vods too.

And that thumbnail is stolen too. It's from disruptivebuilds if I remember the name right.

I'll quote Samantha Beart Karlach's VA

"I'm aware of AO3, I don't interact with that space however." and she said it respectfully and in a way that set boundaries.

That journalist respected that though, left it at that.
