What happened to our Mods?

[sinjin7]

We have 13 Moderators for our forums. However, it appears many are no longer active here. Here are the following Mods who have not logged on in over a year:

Eoghann, Sher, volantangel, Sharpie, and of course, Walrus.

I understand regular members come and go, but I'm wondering what happened to these Mods? They were all pretty active here in the past, but suddenly it seemed they disappeared. It makes me appreciate all the more the Mods who remain active here at UC.

I'm still around... hiding the wings.

Well hello stranger!

Hello. CBJ sent me a link to this thread on FB messenger. My apologies for not being active. I no longer actively collect playing cards but still have a majority of my collection (I don't think I'd ever want to give away my Aurums or Ultimate Decks). I maintain an interest in playing cards but unfortunately not as much as before, as I've started focusing on other hobbies/activities.

Thank you to the mods who are still currently active and keep this forum running. Even though I no longer frequent UC, I still think this is a wonderful community and the forum holds a wealth of knowledge.

I feel like a graduated alumni. Class of 2013.

Anyone know where sprouts has been? No one critiqued decks like him while still maintaining a positive attitude and respect by all. A difficult feat that has not and probably will not ever be duplicated.

Legend has it... that Sprouts moved to a state where weed is now legal, and he continues to labor strenuously on his TEXAS Deck!

This is a great skill to have. It's perfectly fine to critique a deck, especially if it's done constructively. But with so many bad decks coming out on KS, it seems like many people just constantly crap on decks just to be vicious. All that does is bolster the perception that UC is just a negative place. It's fine to say a deck is poorly designed or has some flaws, but I'd like to see that followed up occasionally with some constructive corrections or suggestions.

It was good to hear from Sher and Sharpie and see that they still swing by once in a while. Hopefully someone (CBJ) can persuade Sprouts to come again and maybe even finish his Texas deck once and for all.
