Can we get an official MTGPQ Discord server launched?

We shall have to agree to disagree on our interpretation of things @gozmaster and, while I certainly don’t hold you responsible for the actions of others, I will continue to judge you for your own actions and by the company you continue to keep.

I mean, it's all right there in the video... For anyone to judge for themselves.

... I will continue to judge you for your own actions and by the company you continue to keep.

Please do, Hold me accountable @Sarahschmara , it's appreciated.

I'll continue to do the same.

That way we both don't sleep with our heads in the mud.

(Forest Gump reference get it? it's when Forrest And Bubba where in Viet Nam and.... Oh nevermind, i'm old)

Alright... Serious... Date night... gotta go

Gozmaster has one of the best Discord servers out there for MTGPQ. I mean, it's full of information for new players, novices, and veterans alike. It's a genuine server modded by genuine people that care to help others, above all, it's a server that shows respect to one another, no matter who they are so long as you keep common sense and a sense of humor. It's a friendly environment for all to enjoy and I don't understand the slander and attempt to toxify this games, imho top content creator. I even witness this guy reaching out to others and happily taking his time to help and listen to whatever they come for. This was a thread I started for the betterment of this game, and you bring this off-topic spam of complete toxic attitude and broke a peaceful respectful request, to make this all about you Sarah. Thanks

Sarah

@Killroy I’m still curious. Why did you post a NSFW image based on a children’s cartoon on my discord? Why would you think that it wouldn’t result in a ban? Is that the sort of thing you regularly post on other discords or was it something that you just decided to do in mine?

Killroy

Thanks for showing the devs here why you even included yourself in this thread with all the slandering and misinformation you twist. Clearly saw the author of this and wanted attention again. No thanks I didn't want to be a part of what I personally witnessed and experienced on your server. We were good until you let your political bias control you and made whatever "this" is personal. I don't want to be a part of anti-religion, antisemitic, and downright hateful people that get offended for asking for "thought and prayers" to innocent people losing their life. What was shared was not pornography, it was a meme of TMNT that was no less suggestive, by your standards, than someone sharing a Hawk Tuah Girl Meme. Not my fault you don't know the difference and took such easy offense to a joke, not pornography. So please stop with this toxic attempt of public slander, makes this ban seem totally in vain to come to the forums to speak with me. You could have asked my in Discord DM if it were that important to you. But here we are, off topic on a thread I started, because of you, again.

@killroy are your saying that you shared a NSFW image sexualizing a children’s cartoon on my server because you wanted to upset me specifically because I allowed posts expressing support for the Palestinian people?

What a deeply weird thing to do.

You can try to downplay it all you want as “not that bad” but, at the end of the day, you decided to “punish” a women for having an opinion you didn’t like by posting a sexual image based on a children’s cartoon. That’s not a normal thing to do.

And it’s a great example of the misogyny that women gamers experience both on the internet in general and in this community specifically as well as a really good example of how these sorts of things are rarely taken seriously.

Is it any wonder why I would support an official server where someone else could deal with the trolls?

Good grief. Your real life trauma is bleeding into this game and giving it a bad look. I hope you know that.

You need to visit a therapist, not the forums.

It now makes sense why you’re the center of all the drama and not everyone else. You are the common factor to a lot of this.

Everyone else reading this, if you’re new, these servers are awesome and this community is probably still one of the greatest I’ve ever been around. Pay this crazy cat lady no mind. Come find out for yourself and hang out in GOZ, you’ll find what she says just isn’t true.

Sarah

To sum up: the people insisting that toxic misogyny doesn’t exist in the community (and even if it did, it wouldn’t matter because there aren’t enough women playing to matter) are—checks notes—the dude who posts unwanted sexual content (with a kiddy twist!) and his teammates.

Yep, that math checks out.

Sigh...Alright kids.... I think this is a great place to consider the people coming to this thread for the headline....

And bringing things back ON topic....

1. Yes The player base would 100% LOVE a MTGPQ run Discord Server. However...

2. Assumption: Based on what I'm reading in response from Lu, This isn't in the works at the CURRENT moment because the human/financial capital is out of range for WC to fully commit to at this time.

3. However, it does sound like their may be a VERY good chance of this happening sometime in the (near?) Future?

Hopefully.... SOOOOOOOON.

Thank you Lu!

And if you're wanting to see this from WC, comment and let them know you do.
