Seriously though that’s great to hear

Might depend on the phone, doesn't on mine.

On profiles yes but unfortunately I don't think there's any way to get profile fields (even the ones we had before) to show up in posts on mobile.

Not putting this in a full fledged announcement because it's optional but still something I wanted to point out. In an attempt to be more inclusive to non-cisgendered members we have added a custom profile field for pronouns which you can find by editing your profile. It will appear under your profile photo next to all your posts so that it's nice and clear to everyone what pronouns they should be using with you. We have also changed the "gender" profile section to be more inclusive in regards to non-binary and gender fluid individuals. I know this is a minor thing for most but it can mean a lot to those that aren't CIS so we're glad to be able to do it easily for them. As I've said, you aren't forced to use it so if you choose to please take it seriously. If you choose not to then you can completely ignore this and carry on with your day.

Like @Blazzer I’m not the best at emotional responses but I wanted to bring up a few important things here. 1. I’m glad you had the courage to do this but more importantly I’m glad you felt comfortable enough with the community to share this important part of yourself. There’s a good portion of our history where we were looked at, both internally and externally, as being not the most welcoming of places. We’ve been doing our best to change that and this kind of comfort, the comfort to freely be who you are, is important to us. So thank you. 2. Also thank you for the very detailed and well written explanation. Personally I have several non-binary friends so must if it I’ve known for a bit but this community is pretty vast so not everyone would have the same experiences and there may be a lot of members who would be confused. 3. On the note of confusion, we’ll do our best to make sure you, nor anyone else, has to deal with intentional hurtful comments as we always have. As you touched on, however, making that switch for some may be difficult. Luckily forums lend themselves well to this person pronouns already since gender isn’t implied in here so that helps... I’m rambling. My main point was that I hope, and your post gives every indication that it will be the case, you can be patient with those who are attempting to be respectful but may need an adjustment time. This is especially true for members who join after this and maybe will not have seen it. I may look into whether it’s possible to add a custom profile field for pronouns to help people. Anyway, that got long winded but thank you for being you @fishy. I would never want anyone in the league to feel like they need to hide who they are.

A win over the Titans as one of them as well. A bit tame of me to only get 3 points in 3 wins but it’s certainly acceptable, I’d rather have the wins anyway.

Something clever

A reverse image search brings up many versions of the skull. Appears the word Mexico and the crown were the only things added if I’m not mistaken.

Not allowed

2-0 with 5 points, much better. Are you listening Simon, THIS is what Should be happening.

Clearly my memory sucks but we still won.

Go back a bit further there buddy

Day 2

1 sim we crush Calgary and Vancouver, a few sims later we get beat by Prague and LA. The only consistency this season is inconsistency.

Simon has no pity

Man, @Quik beat me to posting all these so now I actually need to post every day instead of getting my entries for free.

317: Game of the season potential, amazing game. 330: Beaten and a bot gets second star. Yup, sounds about right. Also of note, 9 points separate 1st from 7th in the EU. God damn this is gonna be a crazy playoff race.

I’m honestly kinda amazed by how much you’re still focusing on quality and effort when neither of those was remotely the issue. It doesn’t matter to me what it looks like. If something looks amazing but it’s plagiarized it’s against the rules and therefore not worth anything compared to something that maybe looks bad but was actually original content. Obviously yes, we’d prefer people improve over time but it’s a whole separate topic compared to slapping a few logos on something and calling it your own.

There goes the win streak. Vancouver basically beats us in period 1 alone and London really doesn’t beat us but Malone does.

Stretching the win streak to 5, putting us second in the conference. 4 more points and 8 more hits for me. This is the kinda sim I like to wake up to.

You posted it though. Per the rules of the league that means you are claiming it’s your work when it clearly isn’t. If you can find shit with proof that other people are doing it they’ll receive punishment as well but low effort and plagiarism aren’t the same thing. This is plagiarism, period.

You are seriously missing the point. Adding a few filters doesn’t make it yours. You didn’t make the original graphic. It doesn’t matter how much you change it, you still didn’t make it. If I took a graphic from @gorlab and slapped new text on it I wouldn’t call it mine.

Do you ah e proof that was premade and all they did was add 1 filter? While that is pretty simple it’s not taking someone else’s work, slapping a few logos on it, and calling it your own. That would be plagiarism.

More of this type of sim please! Huge wins! Plus I’ll never be upset about 4 points and 15 hits in 2 games.

I don’t think you quite understood what you were told or someone drastically misled you because to be original VHL content you can’t just be taking premade content that other people have created, adding 2 logos, and calling it your own.
