..so I don’t have to answer this stuff constantly.

Q: Why didn’t you accept my friend invite?
A: I tend to not accept random invites; however, I do not accept invites from private profiles, level 0 profiles, or profiles with VAC bans. If we’ve played together and we’ve talked in game, chances are that I will accept your friend request then.

Q: Why was I removed from your friends list?
A: Chances are that you did nothing wrong. I tend to purge my friends list when it starts to clutter up. If you’re not someone I actively talk to or personally know—that’s probably why you were removed. There’s also a chance that you could’ve done something to warrant being removed.

Q: omg ur never online!!!!111!
A: Maybe I am. Maybe I'm not. You never know. Not a question though.

Q: Can you gift me *insert game name here* please :3?
A: No c:

Q: You have skins that I want. Can we trade please?
A: No. I don’t typically trade.

Q: How old are you?
A: Old enough.

Q: Do you have Discord or have a Discord server?
A: Yes. No, I will not add you unless I really get to know you.

Q: Do you use Steam voice chat?
A: Nope. Used to use it back in the day and I don't ever plan on using it again.

Q: I created a group. Can you join it?
A: I’d rather not..

Q: What’s your avatar from?
A: Nazuna from Call of the Night.

Q: LiNUx iS trAsH u SHouLd inSTaLL MiCHaeLsOFt BinbOWs!
A: Nah I'm good, thanks. If Windows works for you, then by all means, use it. I'm not going to chastise you for it. It doesn't work for me though. And it probably never will unless Microsoft unf*cks Windows to where it isn't a privacy hellscape that's constantly trying to sell me subscriptions, show me ads, or requiring me to debloat the entire OS just to make it slightly more usable.

Q: Do you ever miss using Windows?
A: I mean, sure, I guess? I miss the versions of Windows that I personally remember using as I was growing up like Windows 98, XP, and 7.

Q: Which distro? Why not *insert distro here*?
A: Nobara. Because it works for me?

Q: Should I try Linux? What would you recommend to start?
A: Why are you asking me? That's entirely up to you and should be your decision. Do some research and figure out if using any form of Linux is right for you. Make a list of pros and ♥♥♥♥. There's a ton of documentation and content out there to also help you come to a decision if you're just getting started. If it ends up being right for you and it's something that you want to try—fire up a VM or get yourself a spare drive or an old laptop, if you don't already have one kicking around, and try a few out for yourself over a weekend or week. Don't just blindly switch and use Arch or Gentoo because somebody told you in a desktop thread on /wg/ or on Reddit that you should be using it. Find what works for YOU and what makes you feel comfortable. It's your hardware at the end of the day, not anybody else's.
