I have been here for a while, and two questions are hovering at the back of my mind. And here, please take off the kid gloves-I want an honest opinion, regardless of brutality.
First of all, what do you all think about my articles? I know that my last one, About the acquirement from cards budgetally, was rather weak, but I've got a new one coming, and I just want to know how I weigh in there.
Secondly, I want to ask you all what you think of me. Am I an annoyance, or a nice guy to have around or what? I just want to know what the general opinion of me is.

Your articles are fine. Keep them coming!

About you? I think I asked that same question early on when I was here. There's no reason to ask it, though. My general opinion of you is that you're young.

I think the articles are fine also.

I also am not sure why you "need" or want to know what others think of you, unless it's the teenage "insecure" thing. I also think you're young and I think you should branch out in your deck styles and build other type of decks besides the ones that try to come out fast and kill in turn 3 or 4, but I understand if that's the type of deck you like to play.

You're definitely not an annoyance though.

Okay, here's my brutally honest opinion:

1) I love your articles. Writing is hard and it takes time and I have a great deal of respect for anyone who is willing to contribute to this site. Your spelling and grammar could use some work. For example, "budgetally" is not a word and "possibilitys" is supposed to be spelled "possibilities." The fact that both errors were in the titles of articles makes them look really sloppy. Aside from that, they're really good. The themes are clearly defined and clearly addressed. In some of them, I think you could go into more detail on certain subjects, but that's hardly necessary. Overall, you do a really good job, expecially for someone your age.

2) I like you as a poster. You contribute regularly to a lot of different threads and don't say anything inflammatory. You're definitely not a troll. I wish you hadn't PMed me about starting a game of mindmaster and then stopped playing, but I won't hold it against you. Keep posting.

Did I miss those spelling errors? Well, the possibilities one? I thought the budgetally was just his "way" of titling his article...

And hey, I'll play you at Mindmaster. I'm playing everyone else :)

Dude, wait, take a deep breath..................................

You are welcome here as long as you want..... (as far as I am concerned)

You may come on strong, but that's not a bad thing and you are a very prolific poster. You also add some energy to the posts......

Maybe it was. I don't know. That sort of stuff just bothers me.

If you want. I don't really care either way. I was only annoyed because BPC PMed me about starting a game because someone else wasn't responding to him and then went and did the same thing to me.

* fortunately, everyone is in awe at Spidey's physique

Well, it IS weird, I'll give you that :)

Yeah, that kind of thing is annoying. I have some people like that on another site I'm on. If you don't need to play, we don't have to, just thought you were itching for a game :)

Your articles? To be honest, I personally don't read a lot of the articles. If the title catches my eye, I will and what I have read of yours are fine. By all means keep them coming?

Do we enjoy having you around? Not really, but at this point, we are desperate for new people here, so we'll take what we can get... ;) Just kidding, of course. I agree with a lot of the other people that you are young and that shows sometimes. I have a son almost exactly your age and there is a lot of angst involved... I agree with some of the other posts that the fact that you have to ask shows some insecurity, which also comes with the age.

By all means, stick around. One of the strengths (IMHO) of the CPA is that we thrive on different viewpoints, so it's good to hear from someone who doesn't remember a time when Magic didn't even exist yet....

Oops. As soon as I get back to Germany, I will get back on that, sorry about that.
