Oh, don't call people stupid just because you did something wrong and they can't see it from your perspective.

[color=#000000][b]Dae has a point, different people see things differently. Also calling someone stupid for seeing things from a different perspective is just idiotic.[/b][/color]

Once again a member speaks without fully understanding the situation. I don't know who you are, but you obviously weren't there when any of this happened.

He might not have been here, his account was just created before that.

Well, I was stuck with no internet the whole of summer, so I assume the threads got deleted.

Shouldn't the focus of the conversation be how to improve the overall activity and quality of the site instead of debating such stupid, pointless things as to whether or not Welche thinks it's worth arguing with someone?

I've seen this same situation play out so many times in the 5+ years I've been here, and to waste time arguing over something so pointless is stupid.

Regardless, how many chances should a person get before they get banned permanently? Honestly, if you give out your password to someone, it's your fault for not using common sense. Realistically, you shouldn't give your password out to anyone, ever. Regardless of whether or not you trust them; and that's not just YCM ,that's just in general, I'd say.

And to be honest, I hardly remember much of Welche's posting aside from a bunch of spam and ego-based threads that make Chris look like a self-conscious teenager.

Rodrigo on the other hand was awesome and contributed very positively to the TCG section as a whole despite a slip-up here or there.

I'm not even entirely sure what's been going on in here, but I'm almost certain that this isn't the place for it. Petty petitions for unbanning won't get anywhere. So yeah, please get back on topic and such...

Also Welche, you really need to chill out on being unbanned. Like seriously.

On context about last year, ycm was only good because there was a big emphasis on competitiveness in the TCG section. It created a lot of drama and people bitching at each other so friends and not friendly peoples were being made quite often. There was a definite hierarchy that people liked to challenge, and although it was frustrating it made the section fun to challenge. Its not that these defining people were banned, but a lot of them just stopped caring. I think the only member who contributed to the competitive era who is still around is byak, but tbh he doesn't care anymore.

The overall message of non-optimality and tolerance to all skill levels has decreased the drama of the section and made it very boring, despite that being the goal of last year. I don't think unbanning members will change this, because this also ties in with the current TCG and OCG meta, which are both quite boring right now.

I think a good step would be to put neg reps back. My reasoning for this is because if people know that they are disliked or said something wrong they recognize there is a problem and feel compelled to address it in some form, sparking activity. It also makes the sections more competitive, so quality improves, since the demand for skill increases and tolerance lowers. Also more member-to-member interaction (arguments and what not), instead of people just stating an opinion and being done with a discussion.

Also another good step is to ban byak because I would find that hilarious.


@Welche: you forgot about how I told you to change your password because other people knew what it was :|

Thanks :3

I would do even more to the forum. Well... it seems like the mods don't care too much about this account so I guess I can stay on it?

I'd love my high-level account back but if there is no problem for me to stay on this one, I'll do my best to help the community like I was trying to do.

The argument for negs kinda got stronger just now when some guy in TCG just necrobumped like 15 threads with stupid comments like 'did you know Black Rose's effect destroys itself?'
[/quote]

No. It strengthens the argument that if someone repeatedly breaks a rule like that, the "report" button is far more effective than a neg button.

this forum is dying and YCMaker should at least advertise this site

Except advertising an old product is pretty useless. If you saw a billboard advertising Surplus Outlet, "Now with stale bread and cereal a year past its expiration date!", you wouldn't want to go there, would you?
