Catterjune Posted May 10, 2011 Report Share Posted May 10, 2011 I don't mind the circle jerking fad you guys are doing (especially since I did my own share of joining in), but when half the posts in a topic with alt-art are: "ZOMG! I LOVE THAT PIC!" "I CAN'T SEE THE PIC!" "IT'S CUTE! HERE'S ANOTHER ONE!" "STOP FAPPING TO CARTOON WOMEN AND GET LAID!" It gets to be a bit of a real annoyance. This is the TCG section, not the art admiration (or admonition) club. I'd tell you to take it over to Showcase but I'm not familiar with Showcase's rules so I'd advise against it. In short discuss the cards, not the artwork, or consequences will never be the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DARKPLANT RISING Posted May 10, 2011 Report Share Posted May 10, 2011 But it wouldn't differ YCM at all. Either way 99% of TCG posts are spam, and a notable combo is listed once in like, twenty threads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] I disagree. If I post that Tour Guide thing that I haven't been paying attention to, I'm fine with: "Cute card and pretty good effect." I'm not fine with: "Cute card." And no other content in that post. Of course those are just examples, and "pretty good effect" is also something to avoid just posting.

[/quote] Probably right. Doesn't mean we shouldn't at least do our best to appear intelligent even if we're regurgitating the same crap that was posted the first time the card was posted. I'm fine with YCM being the bottom of the barrel when in comes to discussions, but I'd perfer it to be bottom of the barrel because the members are all retarded, as opposed to because the members don't even try to have a discussion, because they're too busy staring at bunny Grimro's breasts.

White Void Posted May 10, 2011 Report Share Posted May 10, 2011 I'm happy you posted this, the TCG section has been a headache the last few days due to all these worse than usual discussions that aren't even about the actual card half the time.

HaouJudai Posted May 10, 2011 Report Share Posted May 10, 2011 *is guilty* - This is partially over that wind attribute girl/guy card? I agree. My silliness was distracting from any viable discussion of the actual card. My apologies. Will refrain from future nonsense, (kinda) I'll make sure to contribute something worthwhile to the topic at hand at least. Now was that a girl or a guy?

Mehmani Posted May 10, 2011 Report Share Posted May 10, 2011 As much as I simultaneously pity and loathe the weeaboos who get off to Dian Keto's uncensored breasts, I consider this rule to be unjust. We are discussing the card as a whole. This isn't Written Cards, Konami produce such good artwork because they want it to be appreciated (hopefully not by chronic wrist-strain). I feel that being forbidden to discuss the artwork is a stupid rule, TCG is already one of the best boards on this site for intelligent discussion (though that does reflect how stupid YCM actually is, it must be said) and that, simply put, you are depriving us of this because of a personal aversion. YCM is hardly democratic (I still continue to hope like a bourgeois romantic that it one day will embrace democracy) but you can't just issue a decree because of a personal decision. EDIT: I just remembered that Fabled Grimro thread that you posted. Ironically, you were one of the first people to kick-start this brief fad. If Yankeefan was here you would be given a two month ban as you did exactly what J-Max did, even going so far as to post it in a forum that young Yu-Gi-Oh players new to this site would be attracted to most. Even with "good" moderators the hypocrisy is astounding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
