Sorry ahead of time if this in the wrong place, MODS please feel free to move to appropriate area.
I had a question;
Basically, what is something you would like to see in your LGS/new LGS that would ultimately make you have a more positive experience, go to play more/buy more from them, or make you recommend them more. Ultimately, what/how would your ideal LGS be ran or what events would you want ran there (modern, standard, EDH, draft)or what would you like to see there?
Please let me know. I look forward to see what the community has to say.

A well sorted inventory. The best LGS I go to take the time to sort their bulk commons and uncommons of each set and put them in binders, along with the jank rares of the set. It makes finding what you need much easier, as opposed to sifting though boxes of cards that might be color sorted. After that they need a good quantity of events to get players in, and decent prizes. Working at a casino I've been able to see a real promotions department, and what works/what doesn't. Door prizes for certain events, repeat customer rewards, and worth while "jackpots" are all big winners. The best LGS around me did card ordering from SCGs. If they didn't have the card, and you were willing to pay half up front, they would order the cards you needed. When the cards came in you'd pay the remaining balance, and get the cards. The customer had to foot the shipping and handling, making the LGS a true middle man. While many still ordered for themselves, many seemed to like the idea, ordering cards they couldn't find while shopping.
I find a lot of LGS are run my real fans of the games they sell, but don't seem to know how to market themselves. The ones that do have much better atmospheres as the customer service is better, and you get more loyal customers, leading to a closer knit community.
thank you all for responses im really liking this thread so far because it is something that has been on my mind and wondering why we all go our own little "safety zones". Please keep responding
