when did the site last go right? should i, at some time, quit YCM and just go to discord/NCM? how are things going outside of here?

if Zama goes off again just tag Enguin and Nyx, they can probably use their forum authority to put an end to that on topic, as much as I'd like to share my opinion i think @Yui did a better job than I could have so I'll leave it here\ EDIT: so has @Rongaulius below

it's interesting we talk about this here because both the YCM forum and NCM actually have been pretty resistant to a bot takeover from what I can see, maybe because the forum has lost relevance in comparison to the card maker itself. when the bots do show up here they couldn't be more obvious. one of the main reasons I stay around honestly a place like Twitter (i'm just gonna call it that ) on the other hand has been undergoing a massive bot problem since elon took charge. maybe because elon's reputation as a tech bro makes the people running the bots feel more empowered, maybe it's monetization of tweets giving an incentive, maybe this was going to happen anyway and the events since the buyout just made it go so much faster, but there's no incentive to be you on twitter anymore. you play the game or get lost in the shuffle - Optimus actually made a commentary video about the Twitter situation alone its a good watch here it is in any case what i am saying is, i'm grateful for smaller sites like this and NCM that aren't scammy or bot-infested. as for you @Raikoh130 i'm with you, don't engage unless it's inferably human made beyond a reasonable doubt. and lastly @Zamazenta the OS-Tan Fan could you please put further effort into either making your point more concisely, or at least using more paragraph breaks? thanks in advance

@Zamazenta the OS-Tan Fan just asking, in the future could you please not tag me in this specific thread? i don't have any clue how to contribute to the discussion except with something you're more informed about than i am. im not very tech savvy

wonderwall instrumentation but someone swapped the vocals with those from cruel summer by taylor swift yeah i know its gonna be treated as a shitpost around here but whatever i think it sounds surprising good for what it is

im two months late but whatever also before people say "oh hes not in the code" basically the tldr is people discovered a graphics glitch in early MC which interpretation metamorphosized into the herobrine shit

@Zamazenta the OS-Tan Fan the bar at the bottom is different, but i don't know how. this isn't really my lvl of expertise so idk if i should even comment here but w/e

sorry im late, but are banned cards in the running, or just ones @ 1-3?

as someone who still remembers the player backlash to Self-Destruct Button for having an effect saying "both player's Life Points become 0" (yes this was a thing, and unbanned for at least one banlist cycle) and how obnoxious and not fun it was to play against it or even with it being the basis for your own deck, i don't think konami will do something that blatantly destructive anytime soon because veterans and newcomers alike would yell bloody murder over it. if anything the plug and play deckbuilding is the more realistic of modern TCG's problems IMO.

the worst part about this is that it seems like konami is directly encouraging the copy and paste builds with how they design their decks, as if they know that people will spend more to play lower tier just because of this sentiment, and not taking any intiative to curb the power creep, competitive monotony, or any of the other issues with the modern state of the game which, now that i think about it, can almost all be traced to copy-paste decks. well, that and banning players by the pound instead of banning cards by the pound, and refusing to learn from past blunders (like allowing perfor-mapal/-mage escalating to the point of one of only two "emergency" banlists i know of in the games history, the other being the original in response to CED-yata, etc.) or even giving a shit about how the game is going as long as the fanbase keeps paying for tourney entry, packs, decks, new players coming in, just being content with coasting the coattails of kazuki's legacy and footing us the bill. still, not quite as dickish as WOTC (yet)

huh? i mean he wasnt even complaining about meta in general just mainly kash, not to mention we've always got the old formats to lean back on if it gets worse from here (with either kash or some new thingy) edit: was going to post that picture of darth vader holding out his hand from empire but im kinda lazy today
