Quote from: Daniel the Creator on April 25, 2018, 12:01:26 PM...Aren't you usually a big proponent of Redemption board members being careful to not hurt others on the boards, especially disadvantaged, marginalized, or discriminated groups? I don't understand how publicly mocking another board member who literally started posting this week is not doing the exact same thing. What if instead of posting that he laughed at this, he never came back and wrote off Redemption because he felt like the atmosphere here was elitist and uninclusive?
What if he had an original unopened unlimited storefront display box for sale?Original Unopened Unlimited Storefront Display BoxDuring your rescue attempt if your opponent plays less cards than you, rescue a lost soul. If blocking, take no less than your asking price regardless of any offer. Cannot be negated.
I'm certainly glad SEB did not take a light-hearted joke as a personal attack (as others have done in the past--myself included from time to time) because I don't believe that was Daniel's intent.

Making some people laugh at the expense of others is never acceptable. Ever. No matter how horrible you judge the person to be, no matter how much you dislike them. There's no excuse.

I don't think Daniel was genuinely trying to personally attack or hurt anyone either. But that's not my point. If something could be perceived as a personal attack, then I'd say it has easily crossed the line into "We shouldn't be posting this ever" territory.
I genuinely hope SEB didn’t think my joke was at his expense. When I realized that SEB’s title for his topic was based off a real bible verse (the one I used on the card), the comparison between Cactus recycling artwork on cards and the Israelites being forced to make more bricks with less straw was hilarious to me, and I consider that to be the joke. I've reached out to SEB privately.I'm glad to have SEB on the boards and would be extremely disappointed if he felt unwelcome here because of me.
