It might of been hacked.

As simple rule if every part of your CCG can’t be won with a basic starter deck then it’s Pay to win, and you should be banned from holding any contests with it or locking elements behind challenges,

@Thanotos Omega  
any ccg in particular?

@OptimusPrimevil  
In this event it’s Hearthstone, this fucking boss is annoying as all fuck, his hero power should cost at least 2 mana so he can’t just spam minions and spells,

@Thanotos Omega
 
Magic the Gathering is also pay to win. I love the game, but it’s the sad truth. I have some decks in the eternal formats (to avoid having to change them often) and my friends and I use generic free card-playing applications to test new decks, so we don’t spend too much.

a group tried to protest the planned removal of a statue of Robert E Lee.  

@Background Pony #39CF  
The Confederacy was founded on the “State Right’s to Slavery”

@Commune  
indeed

im talking about Now, and how anything confederate -like a statue. is immediately considered evil and bigoted.

@Background Pony #39CF  
A statue dedicated to a racist white supremacist State is considered evil and bigoted 🤔

@Background Pony #39CF  
Beacuse they fought for the right to keep black slaves.
 
The statue should be in a Museum.

@warc9  
that.. sort of works. from what little of the article I was able to read without rage barfing it seems that a group had wanted the statue destroyed.

@Shadow Star  
Well, destroying the statue would be surely a bummer. It’s a piece of history, even if controversial history. Historical patrimony.  
But rage was bound to happen sooner or later. It was a statue paying homage to a confederate general.  
No matter what you say about Robert E. Lee, his decision to join the CSA was, in my view, risky. And, for the most part, it only served to divide opinions of him. Sure, he can still be seen as a figure of pride for post-war virginians, but i really don’t think he should have been given a statue. He would still be remembered without it.  
Nonetheless, what with both the alt-right and the SJW’s gradually radicalizing, i expect more violent clashes to happen. Worse off, moderates on one side will probably be accusing the moderates on the other side of not controlling their extremists enough…

@Background Pony #39CF  
First of all, ever pick up a history book? Secondly, even if you had some point, it got completely buried under the fact that someone was literally killed. So regardless of what they were defending, they’re murderers.
 
@Shadow Star  
The statue wasn’t even going to be destroyed. It was going to be sold and the proceeds were going to go to local organizations.

I thought we were supposed to keep politics out of this thread? We have a politics general for this reason, people. If you want to talk about Charlottesville, take it over there, please.

@Ereiam
 
? How exactly this categorizes as politics?

@arcanedarness  
How exactly this doesn’t? Because that’s exactly what got discussed in the politics general, among other things.

A lot of Political YouTubers are shitty and so are a lot of their fans.

@Ereiam  
If I want to talk about Charlottesville in general, or just about the moral stuff around the murder and the riots?
 
Because, uh, I live there, so I should be allowed to talk about Charlottesville wherever I want.

My grandma (dad’s side) called yesterday and asked if my mom, my grandma and me would come over today for a barbecue. We get here and nobody is outside, in fact it looked like no one was here. We rung the doorbell and it took a few minutes for grandpa to open the door. It’s dead in here, there’s no food and I’m pissed. So is my mom. My grandma isn’t even here, she went out to get medicine. Like who the fuck asks someone to come over and they don’t do what they said they would??

@Applejack007  
She probably just wanted to see you.

@PonyPon  
That’s so shitty! My grandpa just claimed they got up early to start cooking so maybe the food is ready and just needs to be heated up…but, nothing is happening.

@TheHappySpaceman  
Once again, I wasn’t saying that for you, but for this guy. That kind of statement belongs to the politics general.
 
If however you want to tell us how those events have personally inconvenienced you, please be our guest.

Oh boy, i need a root canal on one tooth. and 4 wisdom teeth removals. Part of me wants to get this done, another part of me doesn’t want to, because the last time i was at the dentist, they fucked up a somewhat minor cavity filling. Wrong tooth, with no Novocaine.
 
Please end my life right now.

First world problems vent: I’m having trouble with my multi-monitor setup. I would love to be able to maximize a window over all 3 (and maybe later 5) displays but everytime I hit maximize, Windows only maximizes the window on a single display.
