Mr. Ruboonia Member	posted January 11, 2020 08:59 PM I doubt the younger me would have imagined using my face to login to MOTL using a cellphone.

xtrememagic Member	posted February 17, 2020 04:21 PM Found a couple nice signed toploaders! 2003 zinzillino, 2004 Dannibal, 2005 ThaGunslinga, 2011 rtscards and magic_crazy and some other with unrecognizable signature! Any of these worth something? haha :P Fun times! Still got the Dannibal kobolds but now playing them with metallic mimic!
Mr. Ruboonia Member	posted February 20, 2020 07:00 PM I also have several signed toploaders, though I sent most of them out in trades. Wish I would have kept a few more of them!
AEther Storm Member	posted February 28, 2020 02:44 AM Cool! Any of those got my handle on it? they're not worth anything other than sentimental value, back in the day when trading was good. __________________ I'm a geek, you're a geek. Let's trade.

AlmostGrown Member	posted March 11, 2020 12:12 PM So, where will you go when the site finally keels over and dies? TBH I am surprised Leshrac still pays for it; I sincerely thought it would've died by now. Every so often I'll remember it and come back and look at old forum posts. It's nice to get a hit of nostalgia every so often. Even more so when I look in the "articles" forum. I kind of like it being preserved, Magic at such a different time, seeing posts from 2000 or 2003...

I did a quick search and only found one () toploader, signed by revenger and Qazrice. Must have lost and/or sent them all out in trades.
mm1983 Member	posted March 18, 2020 07:29 PM How has the corona virus affected things within the magic community? Are mtg cards already losing value due to sudden drop in demand due to lack of being able to play or is it too soon to tell? What are gaming stores doing to adjust to any sudden drop in shop sales?
Mr. Ruboonia Member	posted March 19, 2020 09:36 AM I’m not a MTG economist by any means, but I’d imagine the value of cards and other collectibles will drop significantly in the coming months. People are going to get hit hard financially, including the MTG player base. Obviously, the market is crashing abruptly. Maybe card prices will stay artificially high for a while due to price memory. If I had money, I’d hold cash now and buy stocks (and cards) in a few months. I know you’re not supposed to try to time the market, but the outlook certainly looks grim in the near term.
Goaswerfraiejen Member	posted March 26, 2020 02:57 PM Just checking back in for a bit as I postpone the buttload of new work on my plate, now that I have to teach all my classes online. Greetings and salutations, all! I live on a small, wooded island. I never thought I'd actually be home (and safe, and fully stocked up) when the apocalypse hit!

KBK7101 New Member	posted March 29, 2020 02:21 PM I'm a new user who was looking for a place to trade since I was about to try and start heading to the LGS right before this whole virus stuff started getting bad. So... hello! I find it really entertaining that this forum doesn't look to have ever upgraded it's design since it's inception. It's kind of... endearing. Haha. __________________ See you... space cowboy.

Ya it hasn't changed in a long time. In fact the owner and the administrators went MIA a few years ago so now we can't really change much despite still having great moderators around. But trading and selling still goes on. Just at about 1 100,000th what it used to.

If you're looking to trade, I'd suggest Cardsphere or Deckbox, honestly. Those platforms are a lot more up to date and there are a lot of people trading there. This board has definitely been fun over the years, but there isn't much action at this point. [Edited 1 times, lastly by B-Town on March 31, 2020]
