The world simply wasn't ready for us and our clock SeriousPaul. I, for one, will never forget.

Well, it's called a job. If it would be fun, you wouldn't get payed to do it ;)

My job is fun. Lots of jobs are fun. They become less fun when people go out of their way to make them less fun, so let's just not do that.

I absolutely love my job, and it is a ton of fun! It is even more fun when people are nice and follow the rules. :slightly_smiling_face:

Since I'll never give up, this will indeed be along thread. I especially will not give up because of childish insults, or because someone makes an offhand snarky remark online.


As such each day I will post until they see that this is a good idea.

That's not cool, friend. Please don't do that.

Why? I mean I am not trying to be defiant, but I have a goal and no one is required to post or read my threads. As such I fail to see how it would violate any ToS. If it does, let me know so I can A. Stop posting, and B find some place else to take my free time and business to.

I am required to read your posts. Spamming through repeated posts/flooding forums is against our ...

It's a difficult problem to tackle, but to do so, we're changing how Wildcards work for Historic cards. Starting after an update in November, crafting a Historic card will require you to redeem two Wildcards of the appropriate rarity instead of one.

?

^ Me when reading this for the third time.
After a lot of very welcome changes, this feels kinda out of place.
How does doubling the cost of Historic cards help... with anything? Could this be explained further? Did I even read it right?
Out of my head I can't think of any argument on this change helping to build up a good non-rotating format.
This is one odd thing within a lot of good ideas, as I see it. But it confuses me nontheless

@Eisigerhauch#72959:

Will historic exclude all cards from standard?

Nope! Standard cards are legal in Historic.

@Myrddrin:

Didint check that as previously that thing was all locked threads. I freely admit this was my mistake

Apology accepted.

Again, as with any change to the economy, we’ll be monitoring both player behavior in-game and player feedback. If a card is reprinted into a Standard set you will only pay one Wildcard for that version and it can be used in Historic (only the old version costs 2).

@phlegm#16279:

Hey, why was the Forum Rework thread closed? Some folks had posted some good feedback, and some bugs there.
There's no longer a Feedback subforum, so I guess it all goes in General Discussion?

Yes, I closed it, because I can only make so many requests at once. :slightly_smiling_face:

@Pembroke#62863:

Uhm... So, only "General Discussion" and "Strategy"? No other sub-forums?

Nope, not currently! The boards that were rarely used were removed, and we now have different processes for bug reporting and feedback. If a need for more boards arises, we can always add them back. :slightly_smiling_face:

@TopoftheStackMTG:

Nice work, this is very cool. I do have one suggestion, I can’t tell what page I’m on when I click a thread. The page numbers are at the top but none of them are highlighted. They used to be and that was nice.

I am SO glad you pointed this out. Putting in the request now!

Sounds like it's time for you to get a watch

@Kimmaz#98101:

What about Deck building board? do we also post deck building in strategy board?

Yep! That is strategy.

1. There are a TON of reasons why your performance may be impacted. Please submit a detailed bug report on this so we can look into it, including game logs! By submitting this info we can actually look into what is causing it.
2. We'd love to be on other platforms! One thing at a time, though. Let's perfect things on PC first.

What is the adress to the new forums? Does anyone have a link perhaps? I guess the community will be split on 2 forums but thats ok i guess.

No new URL, this is still our forum! It was just a rework of the existing setup.

In what time zone is it tomorrow? How many days will the website be down while they work? I see a few categories like deck building currently gone from the forums already . I guess they are taken down while they are updated one sub forum at the time.

The rework is basically finished! Just need to move around a few things. It happened at 9am PT this morning, no downtime.

Do we lose all the threads in deleted parts of the forums? There were a couple...

@Synthsage:

Hmm. I still think a heavily moderated feedback subforum would be helpful if you listed exactly what belongs there and what doesn't. Unless you can sticky threads. IN which case stickying the first relevant thread about an ongoing event would be helpful.

We will be stickying relevant things, as usual. :slightly_smiling_face:
