My name is Thunder and I've been away from MTG for 15 years.
I have now returned and am still trying to catch up with all the changes and new things.
Hope you don't mind me asking a few questions now and then, because things sure have changed.
I have a YouTube channel where I open booster packs, and see what's new, in 1 minute without boring you too much, so feel free to drop by and say hello if you feel like it.

So I was reading the forum rules more carefully and was wondering if I violated part about "Advertising/soliciting for financial gain is not allowed".
Since I do not monetize any videos and therefore have no financial gain, it shouldn't be an issue, right?
Members are allowed to advertise in their signatures, as long as the formatting is not excessive/aggressive.
Also, depending on the subforum, advertising may be allowed, provided that it isn't obnoxious. As an example, ktkenshinx (a moderator here) runs Modern Nexus, a website dedicated to Modern coverage. He has a thread in the Modern Community subforum, and he advertises the website in his signature.
Playing millions of cards every turn... Slowly and systematically obliterating any chance my opponent has of winning... Clicking the multitude of locking mechanisms into place... Not even trying to win myself until turn 10+ once I have nigh absolute control... Watching my opponent desperately trying to navigate the labyrinthine prison that I've constructed... Seeing the light of hope fade and ultimately extinguished in an excruciatingly slow manner... THAT'S fun Magic.
We have 2-3 users that are dramatically making this thread incomprehensible and non-productive for anyone else to possibly join in the discussion. This needs to change.
Every time I see [ktkenshinx] post in here, I get the impression of a stern dad walking in on a bunch of kids trying to do something dumb and just shaking his head in disappointment.
Near Mint: The same as Slightly Played, but we threw some Altoids in the box we stored it in to cover up the scent of dead mice. Slightly Played: The base condition for all MTG cards. This card looks OK, but there’s one minor annoying ding in it that will always irritate and distract you whenever you draw it. Moderately Played: This card looks like it survived the Tet Offensive tucked inside the waistband of GI underwear. It may smell like it, too. Heavily Played: This card looks like the remains of Mohammed Atta’s passport after 9/11. It may be playable if you double-sleeve it to stop the chunks from falling out. The condition formerly known as "Washing Machine Grade" Damaged: This card is the unfortunate victim of a Mirrorweave/March of the Machines/Chaos Confetti/Mindslaver combo.
[M]aking counterfeit cards is the absolute height of dishonesty. Ask yourself this question: Since most people...are totally cool with the use of proxies...what purpose do [high] quality counterfeit cards serve?
In general it's best left in sigs. Some sections allow it but you should check their local rules or pm a local mod if you are uncertain. Sigs should be fine though and generally the more appreciated way to solicit this sort of thing.

I have officially moved to MTGNexus. I just wanted to let people know as my response time to salvation decks being bumped is very hit or miss.

I was starting to wonder if I did the right thing to talk about my youtube channel, but I guess it's alright then.
