Why would I want to join something that accepts anyone and everyone who asks? What's the point of calling that something?
Tier systems? Come on.

The tier system is how we vet - we'd rather give people a chance than dismiss them out of hand. That's why new members are probationary.
Believe me when I say my intention was not to try and get you to join, though - I was just making an observation.

Have you formally requested to join? Cuz you should.

Pretty sure I have...
I didn't see you on the list. Unless red forgot to add you. It's no big deal. I'll take this as formally joining. I only bring this up because.... there's something in the works and I wanted to make sure you're "officially" in the Clan.

Dechs joined forever ago and then left so we dropped him from the roster.

Yeah. Sorry about that.
I just didn't have the attention span for two forums.

It's not an issue, it's just the reason you're not on any list.

Fair enough.

http://mtgo-stats.com/decks/86723
This deck is upgraded copy of deck we developed here, only changes are it uses 4 temple of malice over rakdos's guildgate.
Can we do something to get a credit for it? Like 71 cards are exactly the same, and last 4 are upgrades. And I am the first person ever posting results on mtgo with Red Based Pack Rat deck.

Why wouldn't you bring your other clan here? MTGS sucks and the new Curse version is a pile of shit

My eyes! I just went to Sally and regretted it, as usual.

The new Sally is truly a pile. Lipstick on a pig and all that...

We're restructuring Clan shit, people. If everything gets weird, that's why. Once we're done, I'll make an announcement so everyone knows what's up.

Pedros - That has happened more than once. Unfortunately, there's no real way to stop that from happening.
From what zem has indicated, publishing deadlines and requirements push the writers into developing new articles at a fairly hectic pace. It's no wonder that they would look around for content.
I agree, though, that credit would be nice. Maybe a letter to the editors of the various sites could help enforce that.

Actually there is a solution--use of the clan-restricted Brewery. But that's the rub of the tiers...Pedros only had access to the public forums. Glad we're getting after all this stuff...

But then we run into the problem of not attracting new people with new content.

Would you accept a compromise? How about we just demote everyone above you?

I've redirected everyone from my EDH Primer. That's about all I can do.

Because the ignore function backfires anyway. There's that little button to view post. It draws attention, so in the end it only makes me read your posts more often than everyone else's.

Really I did it to hide your avatar, since I'm at work browsing the site.
No, I don't want to hide everyone's avatar. I like being able to see "faces."

Hide Kait's avatar?
That's like the best part of his posts.
Posted: Tue Feb 04, 2014 7:44 pm
by rcwraspy
wait, you can hide everyone's avatar? I can get away with Redthirst's sig because the colors mean you have to concentrate on the image to tell it's a big chandra ass, but Kait's avy gets me paranoid at work, which is where I do most of my browsing/reading/posting.

I can't disagree. I just don't want her avatar in view when my manager or other coworkers walk by.

I just went to control panel display settings and chose not to display avatars or signatures. I have mixed feelings about this, but at least now I can read at work without constantly looking over my shoulder or listening for footsteps like I'm some native american tracker in the woods in 1759. Which would actually be badass.
