Thats actually a practical thing. Hitboxes in games is what its about. Female characters have traditionally been smaller and thinner than male characters for some reason so reduces the hitbox size and area giving an advantage over male characters....when the hitbox is good anyway, when its rubbish it doesnt make a difference either way. But its also why you dont see many large fat male characters running around, too easy to hit for anybody who knows about hitboxes.
Isn't that part and parcel of being 'the husband' though
At the moment, she's critically ill and on life support in hospital over 200 miles away and I can't be there by her side...I miss her like life itself and for the last week I've been living life phoning or waiting for the phone to ring informing me of any improvement. Thankfully, she is improving although still on the critical list...small steps on the way to recovery. Apologies for once again delving into my private life on here...I put it down to mental and physical exhaustion during the last very tiring and stressful week and beg the forum's tolerance![]()
she managed to speak on the phone and apologised faintly for being ill
Yup, she collapsed last Wednesday after complaining she felt a bit ill after coming back from feeding her horses. Turned out that her colon had ruptured a few days previously sending her body into septic shock...which through experience of third stage sepsis first hand, is a killer. She's been on full life support and in a medically induced coma since then, endured 4 serious life saving operations to remove the various organs which had succumbed to the sepsis and had gone necrotic. Her kidneys were failing leading to her being stuck on dialysis to prevent them failing totally. She's got through all that although still on dialysis for the meantime. Now starts the first of the many, many little steps on the long road to recovery.Hah, nice to see she can keep a sense of humour while so terribly ill.
She sat by my bedside for a year and watched me come back from death after Afghanistan. She helped me through relearning how to walk, talk and deal with the bits of my body that took the longest to heal and how to cope with the bits that were missing or broken...I never really appreciated what she went through until the boot was put on the other foot...so to speak. It's much harder watching someone you love being so ill and coping with the helplessness of being a mere observer than it is being the person that's illI hope that you both can resume a more normal life soon.
I would ve (and have on a similar experience) cried in reliefWow, I can't even think about how good that call must be felt to you![]()
The lack of mute/block functions doesn't help though.
In SC chat? No. The mute function doesn't work properly. 9 times out of 10 it just ignores your mute request.Pretty sure you can mute people.
It used to work, way back before 3.0. Now the only way to mute the chat is to hit F12 to make it vanish or change servers to try and find other similarly minded adultsIn SC chat? No. The mute function doesn't work properly. 9 times out of 10 it just ignores your mute request.
"Why am i dead? What happened?"
I wonder how many times a day people playing SC say that.

We've been together 34 years and this is only the second time she's ever been ill. First time was due to a motorbike accident which had us both hospitalised over 10 years ago...she's never had as much as a cold or flu in all that time. I swear she's been saving them all up for this one...To say I'm relieved is an understatement![]()
