Now that I think about it...

So, how many of you guys play on Dueling Network? And how many of you see lots of players putting in their duel notes "TCG Only"? Why hasn't Dueling Network come up with a solution for this. It's actually quite simple, though it'd probably require more money. Though it's not like they're not getting enough from people donating just to get a custom avatar and sleeves for a set amount of time, which by the way in my opinion is stupid.

So what's the solution? Go into the Duel Room with at least one Forbidden card in your currently defaulted deck. Notice anything? You're automatically chosen to play in Traditional (Unrated). Have any of you face palmed yet? If they can do this for Forbidden cards on Dueling Network, why in the blue fuck have they not been able to do similar for OCG only cards and create a separate room for a unified meta? Make another Duel Room, Dueling Network. Make it so we have TCG (Rated), TCG/OCG (Rated), TCG/OCG (Unrated) and Traditional (Unrated).

Honestly I'm surprised they haven't already done this, Dueling Network has been live for over a year now. I see this happening all the time and the result is either they agree on a draw, which is an easy solution as well (but you can't expect people to be reasonable like this 24/7), or they fight until one calls an admin and the end result of that is an administrators time has now been wasted just to cancel a duel.

I can probably come up with a few other things in regards to Dueling Network that they should probably change, one would definitely be the default avatars. People would be bitching less if they didn't have to "earn" their avatars, and the same especially goes for the sleeves. Especially the sleeves they have as the default right now, what the fuck? Who wants to use barf looking sleeves like that? Make it a plain sleeve, and make it so we can change the color, I think everyone would be happy with that. Avatars? Stop using those shitty ass characters as the default avatars. Fan art sucks for avatars too, that Marik avatar looks like shit, same with the Shooting Star Dragon/Yusei one. If you want to keep it so you have to earn better avatars that's fine, but at least give some DECENT default avatars to use. There are some people who prefer not to play in the Advanced (Rated) room, and because of that they're stuck with barf sleeves and shitty avatars.

If you guys actually agree with all this and want things like this to be changed on Dueling Network pass this along or go straight to the source and speak up. The only reason why I'm posting this is these are a few things I've noticed about Dueling Network that make it suck and honestly make it not worth wanting to play on. Me, personally, I only go on there to play once in a blue moon and usually to watch my friends play, especially when they play against complete morons. Those are always fun to watch.
