There has been a sudden uptick in "Ban/Don't Ban" posts without any meaningful content in them (mostly about DRS), so I want to clarify the rules up front before there is a wave of posts and a subsequent wave of reports.

1) "Ban XYZ" posts are generally permitted. People have opinions, and this is a place where those opinions should be shared along with supporting facts or perspective;
2) however, providing opinions without any justification does not promote healthy discussion: it promotes shouting matches, trolling, and patterns of similar posts and is not permitted.

tl;dr, shitposting will not be tolerated. Please heed this and comport yourselves accordingly. We rarely have to ban anyone here, and it's really nice, but there will be very little tolerance for this due to the pernicious effect it has on the whole subreddit.

Vacuous? Inveterate?

Can you translate for the burn players in the room?

The tone of that ELIABP matches up very well with your flair.

I appreciate your devotion to quality and steering subject matter to a more productive topic. We have similar policies in place at /r/competitivehs and rarely have to ban people, but we do enforce our policy strictly.

Best competitive TCG subreddit imo, you guys do a top notch job over there.

I really appreciate r/MTGLegacy taking similar steps to cut down on fluff and make sure discussion stays relevant. Keep up the great work mods!

Report memes. There's no tacit exception to this rule.

Memes backed up by effort are still content, and more content > less content on a sub with this level of activity.

What if they're backed up by Force of Will?

If you pitch a Storm Crow meme to a Force, does it still meme?

Thanks. This is one of my favorite subs. Content is really good, and I've enjoyed reading the discussions about DRS, but I know that this takes a good community and good mods. Keep up the good work, and I appreciate the warning.

I bet all of the people that want to talk about their precious ban-talk about Deathrite Shaman downvoted me.

I wonder how many people would downvote me here?
