Magic The gathering important community members are being harassed or quiting. What is the Cause? Whats going on? This is currently the talk of entire community. Is MTG a good environment or is it toxic to players?
TCC guy should legit kill himself. He's not a player, he's an "Investor" and a "Speculator". IE the people who are actively harmful to the game as a whole
Henry Adams
idk she cosplayed for MTG and got harassed on twitter over ripping a $300 card in some game so she quit along with some random dudes youtube calling her a 3/10 whore.
Tyler Adams
Who is harassing whom here?
Elijah Phillips
They are people who use magic for other purposes than playing it. Let them quit, we are better without the attention whores
lol the guy who made her quit's entire channel is full poltard
Andrew Young
Did she get the card in a pack or did someone give it to her?
Jeremiah Taylor
She was being harassed by this shitlord named Jeremy from MTGHeadquarters (who has targeted other pillars of the community). He's a fucking alt-right/incel edgelord who doesn't know how to hide his powerlevel.
Chase Brooks
I don't see no other way to use a card game
Josiah Howard
Wait, that soft spoken guy managed to make someone quit? How?
Are people that thin skinned now?
Andrew Barnes
She was at a GP and some artists invited her to play flip it or rip it. She ripped an invention in half (we don't know if it was Static Orb or Chalice of the Void but in any case it was nowhere near $300). Shitlords harassed her even though guys who played flip it or rip it much more often didn't get any shit for it.
Ethan King
>Shitlords harassed her
Any examples of that?
Jack Moore
>roastie cosplayer >pillar of the community
k
Jonathan Gomez
he deleted all the vids but I guess he just outlight lies about people in them with made up stories. I think he said she did porn or was a whore.
Mason Long
This is the internet. Nothing gets deleted. Present examples of said harassment.
Angel Williams
She was using magic to boost her popularity as a cosplayer. If she cared about the game she wouldn't have ripped a 300 dollar card on purpose.Not sure on the Youtuber but if he's just a speculator and investor then he's using the game to make money. It's a fucking card game, play the damn game.
Juan Morris
...
Caleb Williams
Then why isn't the community mad at the ppl who put on the show?
Gabriel Reed
>Shitlords tumblr pls go and stay go
Anthony Turner
Here is another picture.
The way flip it or rip it is played is that you don't KNOW what the card is until you flip it over or rip it in half.
Nolan Edwards
Harsh. I hope the girl has enough emotional support, because statements like that are just outrageous.
Grayson Thompson
That's the price of fame. People want to get famous, until they're famous and realize it sucks dick.
Benjamin Gonzalez
Another picture.
Justin Myers
Flip it or rip it is retarded anyways
Eli Parker
I just read it was flip or rip. Either way if you are trying to use a fandom for popularity don't be surprised when you get haters.
Joseph King
>Shitlord >Pillars of community >Unironically saying "alt-right"
How about you go back to tumblr
Jaxon Ross
Last one.
Isaac Diaz
Hahahaha it's a teenage card game get over it
Jaxon Gonzalez
Ugh, he expresses his displeasure with what she did. How dare he. Women, especially in toxic environments like magic, should be above criticism. This is not acceptable.
Logan James
I'm scared. That twitter harassment could happen to anyone. We have to rethink freedom.
Gavin Gray
>unironic usage of "shitlord" Hello tumblr
Lincoln Wilson
If it walks like a duck, talks like a duck, then it's a fucking duck. Just because I used those terms doesn't mean I go on tumblr. I'll say it again, Jeremy is an alt-right/incel shitlord.
Matthew Morris
This is fucking retarded.
Carter Torres
I am getting triggered just reading those. Could you spoiler them the next time? Man, people being slightly condescending are the worst.
Brody Gutierrez
It means exactly that you go to tumblr. Now stop ruining this board and fuck off.
Carson Martin
It's the #1 story in MTG right now. I don't create the news, I am just talking about what is going on in MTG World.
Jackson Allen
That's what you get silly user
Daniel Johnson
I don't know, I think this is pretty funny. Magic and the "community" surrounding it is super gay.
Joshua Brooks
I mean, I'd be willing to buy into it if it was physical or real life harassment. Something tangible like people trying to grope her or some shit, but twitter posts and youtube comments? Really?
Henry Robinson
Some people have thin skin Some people have skin so think you question if they even have it.
Robert Williams
Welcome to millenials.
Lucas Clark
>using a variety of virgin as an insult Jesus, you are tumblr as fuck.
Ethan Miller
Yes, slightly condescending tweets that express displeasure with a woman's behaviour are completely unacceptable.
Because women are no adults but children that need to be constantly coddled according to OP.
Ian Harris
from what I gather she was trying hard at it, doing patreon, and broke financially. So it was probably the mix of trying hard + not getting a financial reward from it + getting negative feedback that cracked her.
Adam Allen
>He's a fucking alt-right/incel edgelord who doesn't know how to hide his powerlevel Sometimes, I wonder if we've taken the special lingo of the Internet too far when someone can string a sentence like this together.
It feels like maybe 1% of people over the age of 40 might know half of these terms and what they mean.
Aiden Clark
To be fair, that dude from MTGHQ would actually post videos about her and other MTG cosplayers fairly often, and then take them down quickly before he could risk violating guidelines. Still fast enough to see for someone who is targeted, and he said some foul shit. Same goes for his treatment towards the Professor, who, other than being a bit awkward and nebbish, is a genuinely nice guy in real life.
Jayden Bailey
If you use shitlord, you're inevitably a tumblrina. They are the only people who unironically use the term shitlord, hell, they made it specifically because it's a vulgar but ultimately inoffensive insult they can throw around with triggering anyone because it doesn't insult anyone on the basis of gender, sexuality, race, weight, and whatever the else kind of bullshit "trigger warnings" people put on their profiles.
Nicholas Allen
>shitlord aside, I'm not really surprised. I always got bad vibes from him even way back when.
Zachary Wood
Nigger, I'm 22 and I don't know half that garbage. People need to stop searching for things to fight for
Liam Gonzalez
Dude, once again, nothing is taken down or deleted quick enough on the internet. Unless you can post any proof, a backup video or even a fucking tweet calling the Prof or the Cosplay chick out, you are just talking shit.
Brody James
>Broke >Trying to cosplay for mtg to earn money So she's also a fucking idiot. Just donate plasma and work retail like a normal person. Jesus.
Chase Lewis
Nigger what? He posted a video actually giving the Prof a lot of props.
I have a feeling it was expectation-based. She did a lot of promotional things for MTG, going to events etc but was never compensated much. In that state it's obvious why she would get mad
btw you're an asshole
Logan Foster
ITT: Impotent incels
Xavier Collins
>defending attention-whoring women who don't want to get a real job
No, you're the asshole here.
Connor Murphy
I think the world would be a better place if everyone agreed that absolutely nothing said on the Internet is real, which was the case around 10-15 years ago.
I'm not saying the Internet needs to go away, but there is zero reason why the plethora of Internet problems that have appeared in the past decade should even exist. Cyber-bullying, harassment, hurt feelings, death-threats, not knowing how to block retards on your social media, reading comments by random people, and the list goes on forever - should not be problems we have.
Cameron Sullivan
That plasma gig be paying
Xavier Cook
Honestly, her patreon is $230 per month. The fact that someone can make that kind of money with cosplaying is mindboggeling. Not enough to sustain a living, so I guess she needs to get a real job now. I am sure she has some marketable skills to start working at Wizards, right?
Right?
Ian Hughes
oh boy internet drama over nothing
surely this is the end of majicks
Jackson Bell
Facebook and Myspace brought "real identity" to the internet. It would be better if everyone had zany dog-anime avatars and everything but it's just not going to happen. The addiction of getting likes and the skinner-box reward systems built into every sight with upvotes, likes, subs, etc is too strong of a compulsion.
Look up teen suicide rates, Teen girls 14-19 doubled since 2007, with the exact rise of social media obsession.
Ryder Stewart
>I'm an asshole for calling stupid out I bet I'm ALSO an asshole for telling you rain is wet and roads are hard. When you're broke and at the end of the rope you either abandon your dreams and put nose to grindstone or die with them.
Sebastian Young
Dude, I've been going to Veeky Forums on and off since 2004, I don't use tumblr, but I do go to other sites and pick up words there. Shitlord is perfect.
Jeremiah Miller
>I'm an oldfag trust me
No you're not. Now go back to tumblr or somethingawful or whatever shithole you crawled out of.
Kevin Cooper
He's constantly been seen on twitter attacking the guy, Sprankle, and anyone in the community online who isn't far right. The dude literally quotes Vox Day in his stuff.
Nolan Rivera
>I am stupid faggot that likes in the butt.
Chase Cook
If you use tumblrina, you're inevitably a underage retard.
Hunter Taylor
But where are the proofs, you kinda still need evidence to substansiate your claims, though judging by that green ronin shit, those days are fading
Ian Phillips
>I don't use tumblr, but I do go to other sites and pick up words there Where did you find a place that wasn't tumblr that uses shitlord in earnest? >Shitlord is perfect see pic
t. tumblrina
Nathan Flores
No you t. Underage retard.
Jonathan Allen
She's pretty.
Jason Rodriguez
>literal no you posting
Dominic Evans
>go read reddit because it's an effective place to get MtG news >first post of the first thread reads like a welcoming signpost from a nazi concetration camp, with "straight white male" instead of "jew" >apparently a cosplayer girl has been brutally RAPED by someone, terrible! >"Unsleeved media has made my life hell *this whole year* with his unneccessary tweets"
That's what you get for visiting le reddit at all, dangus.
Matthew Bell
Wtf is a skinner box reward system?
Benjamin Clark
Cry more faggot.
Kayden Gonzalez
>crying at someone saying "no you" Oh wow sweetie, you used a really bad word now! Don't get too worked up since it's your bedtime, sweetums.
Ryan Davis
Skinner box was a psychology experiment by B.F. Skinner using pigeons. It's neat stuff
Jaxon Peterson
...
Brayden Ross
I don't care if you don't believe me, newfag. I have obscure memes like this that never survived outside of Veeky Forums.
Gavin Parker
Twitter
Brayden Fisher
Nobody believes liars on Twitter anymore. Bitch needs to cut the crap and start whoring if she wants real money.
Easton Scott
>going on twitter Fucking normalfags
Wyatt Roberts
>avoid starvation by selling your blood to the rich Do you americans ever stop and reflect on the society you have created for yourselves?
Levi Gray
>I'm gonna google old """"memes"""" to prove I'm an oldfag
Stop. This is pathetic.
Brandon Howard
Then stop retard.
Jackson Reyes
I heard he hangs Nazi posters on his walls and then quickly takes them down before anyone can see
And I choose to believe that because the person who tells me stupid horseshit agrees with me politically
Blake Bell
In this context it means the re-affirmation of a good "posting" by the reward of likes, upvotes, or a reward.
Meaning that you are conditioned to post things with the intention of getting as much positive feedback as possible. In return you go around and reward everyone in your circle and compare reward numbers.
So for instance a facebook circle for someone could be them going around and posting positive things / liking other posts, while posting their own content hoping for a reward in return.
It's an ego-driven skinner box and it's a key component of web 2.0 sites. Similar to how you might seek out (you) replies on a Veeky Forums website. People become addicted / obsessed with taking the perfect picture or other thing to maximize the social reward they feel on their sites. It affects women more than men just because of social reward centers being much larger in women.
Elijah Williams
I get that. I am, with my limited proficiency on the web, incapable of producing them, but I have seen them linked on twitter, I've seen his tweets and I'm sure reply chains exist- I don't follow any of his various media channels because I don't want to support them, so I can't simply produce them. I understand that it's innocent until proven guilty, but a cursory search from someone who isn't practically an unwilling luddite (like me) is going to find them.
Asher Perez
Pretty sure it does get deleted. Unless someone snagged them before they got taken down it's gone. Saving high-tier tech wizardry.
Elijah Turner
Nigga, you literally make more blood all the time. Fuck. Also, I did suggest she get a retail job and actually try work as well. It's vastly more stable and profitable than trying to make money by cosplaying for a niche audience
Ethan Cook
I encourage it desu. Demonise 99% of the magic players into either going full commy-cuck or full poltard. Either way, acceleration is a wonderful hope and this is the stuff that brings on all the gay cunt articles like Daniel Fornier's piece of shit. That kike has already jumped on this bandwagon to tell everyone he was right, it's hilarious.
Hunter Gonzalez
What?
Christian Nguyen
You can't find the meme I posted anywhere on the internet, trust me, I've looked. It was a pain in the ass going through my external hard drive too.
Btw that "you failed at the internet" post wasn't me.
Julian Reyes
Fucking cucks ruining other people's lives again.
Jaxson Scott
can you clearly tell me what did unsleeved media do against that woman that lives to the real meaning of the word "harassment"? is there any video link, twitter link, or screeshots/transcripts that really really fall into harassment?
Brayden Murphy
And your asshole heals pretty quick too, maybe poor people should be forced to prostitute themselves
