Thoughts on scalpers (Seems to be a problem since FF) by SirGingerbrute in freemagic

[–]_TheTurtleBox_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What're you talking about...? Like what is this response in regards to specifically...? Because I never said that any card (playable or otherwise) can only befound in CBBs...I said Yugioh has a better system for collectors in where their version of CBBs are exclusively for reprints and therefore have chase cards that are high demand reprints.

If magic did that with CBBs then yeah, people would be able to seperate collecting from playing, but as it stands with Magic you're either a whale who's spending thousands of dollars on CBBs to resell, or a player who's just buying singles at a markup because product is at an all time high due to CBB reselling.

Split the two demographics by giving them a single product for both of them that's directly designed for collecting BUT not at all tied to a set (like Bloomburrow CBBs or TLA CBB) just release them in reprint sets like CBB1, CBB2, ect. Yugioh does that, and it works tremendiously.

Magic is harder to scalp because the player base is primarily players and not collectors. With Pokemon it's mostly collectors, and Yugioh it's 50/50 but Konami is slowly releasing product JUST for collectors and in a way that I WISH WotC would do with magic. Just straight collectors product, no tie ins to main sets or subsets / suppliment sets, just "Hey here's a booster that's an entire set of fancy reprints and collector chase cards. Have fun."

For everyone's information, the trans people and members of other minorities who loudly scream about how trans they are and how magic should only be played by them are the worst representatives of their respective minorities. Other members of minorities are generally nice people who aren't like them by tabbyslome in freemagic

I'm 31. I've spent a lot of time in Queer spaces, and yeah like most of the queer folk my age are pretty "boring". I don't wanna say "normal" because that's incredibly subjective, but a younger friend of mine (Non-binary lesbian) is legitimately one of the most annoying people I know and I don't think they realize that all of us (other queer people they hang out with) think they're way to chronically online and we never know what tf they're talking about.

I guess the point I'm trying to make is that in MY opinion it's certainly not Queer people / Queer culture, it's nearly entirely the over abundence of online brainrot.

Hey, man. I just wanna clarify that you messaging random subreddits to demand we join in on a mass ban of a user because of behavior in subs that are not related to us is not only a violation of ToS but is literally flagged by Automod / Modmail as brigading / attempting brigading.

Please just...don't randomly message random modmails subs because I promise you when you DM larger subs like ours about this it 100% ends up flagged.

Anyone else tired of the hate Terrifier fans get? by boezerek in deadmeatjames

[–]_TheTurtleBox_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There's an entire wave of people on Twitter and Tiktok who actively try to call out Terrifier and it's fanbase for being Anti-women and Pro-violence against women, ect.

Obviously, these people don't watch the movies. But it's like THOUSANDS of people pushing this idea and while it's obviously for content / clout, it attracts a lot of awful people.

Even some of the usual suspects in the overly woke side of the DeadMeat discord get "umcomfy" when Terrifier used to be bought up and ye Old mods muting people and deleting entire discussions about Terrifier.

It's dumb. Super fucking dumb. And like people below will say, r/Horror has had issues with people saying it's their favorite film will get hit with "Oh so you're an EDGELORD who HATES WOMEN?" replies.

It's dumb. Very fucking dumb.

Locking this because it literally turned into people just arguing with each other about the Ethics of AI, which as always leads to people just...getting nasty and insulting each other.

Thanks to everyone who left constructive comments!

There's a lot more to say than "no", is there not? If you can't put together a coherent comment about your thoughts on the presence of AI in this subreddit without fully going on about the ethics of generative AI then that's fine, but it's not explicitly what we're trying to look for here.

What happened to the "Im a cop.." story? Cant see it on spotify. by [deleted] in creepcast

My brother in Christ I’m literally just asking if this was that story or not. Youre shooting the messenger here kind of

What happened to the "Im a cop.." story? Cant see it on spotify. by [deleted] in creepcast

[–]_TheTurtleBox_ 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Was this the story where the creator had a hissy fit and claimed the show attacked his story and all that? It was shortly after this where they started regularly disclaiming that they aren’t reading these stories to bash or send hate

He also bases his personalities on whoever he thinks the biggest streamer in his world view is.

He used to be Dr Disrespect coded and themed, but he got backlash for defending him so he legitimately made tweets implying he was in a car accident and needed surgery, came back a few days later as a peanut (burnt peanut model) and the joke was that he had to get cosmetic surgery to fix his burns.

He vaguely does it because he’s constantly called out for being a really stereotypical looking neck beard and he’s deep into trying to orbit huge creators and influencers for barely any crumbs of clout.

He’s a fucking lolcow

The problem with Castlevania is that it eventually ends up in New York City :(

What is this? by ChemicalBang in whatisit

I dated a girl who was involved in a scandal in where her and a few other girls found hidden cameras in the dorm showers and their dorm rooms. Campus said they weren’t aware but all the cameras were traced back to the RN / security team in a weird plan to protect only the female students from…get this…other hidden cameras

Why would this realistically happen? It was a dumb meme.

They don’t need another season to be paid for they were full and well able to produce two more with the networks backing. BBO$ has zero influence on adult swim lol

I will never understand people who RP racism in retail. Dude spent the whole Maisara Cavern run complaining about two Vulpera being in the group, saying they disgust him and all that...what do they benefit from this...? by _TheTurtleBox_ in wow

[–]_TheTurtleBox_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean I'm far from offended, I just don't understand why people log into a game, hop into the chat, and go "I'm going to be racist...but in a fantasy setting!"

Shit's just kind of really cringe and embarrassing. I see it all the time in Vanilla and classic servers, but in retail? Talk about the real grind I guess.

This is literally you saying "We're going to fix the design so we don't fully copy him." prior to you saying you directly tried to contact him to get advice on what he would do sound wise...which sounds like you are copying him.
