We'll be good early on since things are just getting started, but it'll be interesting to see how things progress and how fast. HearthPwn definitely got pretty bad with some discussions and I don't want to see it replicated here. We'll likely be harsher in some areas and lighter in others when it comes to punishments.
Would it be possible to include a link back to the post that's being replied to at the top of a reply by default? Right now it feels like you have to quote-reply to make it clear who you're responding to because of the chronological sequencing of comments (which I prefer to the reddit system of nested comments BTW).
This is planned! I want posts that are a response to include a "In Response To User #000" with an easy link to go back and read.
It is no secret I'm a Nintendo fanboy. Whether you love me or hate me for it, I accept your decisions. I wanted to catalog all the awesome stuff Nintendo talked about today and with that, give people easy access to pre-order new titles which in turn helps support the site. I also hope that we can talk about all the announcements too.
There's a ton of stuff that came out in the direct, I'm primarily just looking at the first-party Nintendo stuff. There are a few other fan-favourites included (sorry if your favourite game didn't make the list.

Cadence of Hyrule
Play as Cadence, Link, or Princess Zelda as you move to the beat and try to defeat an evil menace disrupting Hyrule.
We have plans for a dedicated non-thread tier list =D
I really want to be able to show people how cards move over time from different rankings, and of course, talking about them is important too. Stats get a bit harder since we aren't collecting anything, but it's possible we can work with another community to achieve this, at least early on.
Decks are not private though we may add the functionality in the future.
Some decks not displaying on Google is simply Google not yet indexing the content. Since the site is just growing, we have to show Google we're awesome enough to get indexed. I do submit a dump of deck urls to them on a daily basis which helps with the process.
The idea is people can filter by many expansions at once if they want to. Much like how you can do the same with classes. A good example is to easily link to a listing of all Standard cards.
It isn't fully prettied up yet though, that is to come.

Animated Card Images!
Visit any card page to see a golden animation of the image.
This took a TON of work last week and took a few days to render every card in the game.
We decided to use the exact same templating we had back on HearthPwn for those that have templates that use card images so no extra work is needed on your end.
The cardimg bbcode also supports animated images. will give you a nice golden version of the card.
I agree with you.

Just wait for card reveal season on Out of Cards ;)
Things are going to ROCK.
It is my mission to make this site exactly what I wanted HearthPwn to be, so I hope we're better!
Glad to have you and everyone else on board.
I wouldn't mind adding a little indentation arrow icon in the margin before a post to serve as a better indicator. Good feedback!
I like golden animation.
The hero we need on Out of Cards. Welcome, friend.
That's what I love to hear, visit and spread the word!
I've published what I gotta say
https://outof.cards/site-news/134-a-letter-from-flux
I've almost got a post finished for our front page, it should be up soon. I think it addresses everything.
We are not going anywhere. Out of Cards is here to stay.
We have plans for a dedicated non-thread tier list =D
I really want to be able to show people how cards move over time from different rankings, and of course, talking about them is important too. Stats get a bit harder since we aren't collecting anything, but it's possible we can work with another community to achieve this, at least early on.
Decks are not private though we may add the functionality in the future.
Some decks not displaying on Google is simply Google not yet indexing the content. Since the site is just growing, we have to show Google we're awesome enough to get indexed. I do submit a dump of deck urls to them on a daily basis which helps with the process.
The idea is people can filter by many expansions at once if they want to. Much like how you can do the same with classes. A good example is to easily link to a listing of all Standard cards.
