Jerry's Nugget Reprint should not be in the database

Unread post by bigskybaby »

As we all know these decks are not a "reprint", they are FAKE! These decks are made to confuse people to make them think they are the real ones. We should not encourage this behaviour. By using the word "reprint", it may leads to misunderstanding to some of the users.

I can't say I really know anything about them but...
Perhaps have a "counterfeit" category? Whist they shouldn't be encouraged they are a part of the hobby and DO have a place in the database even if only as an education tool to help identify and avoid them.

They are still decks, fake or not. Some are actually decent quality while others are not. Would you same the same thing about the 3 fake Wynn decks?

Given we no longer really have categories, but instead proper mfg/artist/brand/producer (company), the best place for this is directly in the title as '(unauthorized replica)' and include details in description.

It's a deck, it exists, people own it, it should be in the database. However, it should be clearly labeled for what it is.

OK, I located these 4 fakes and updated the title to include ' (Unauthorized Reprint)' and also included the following in the description, plus added details for each specific deck on the most obvious flag for that deck in detecting it is fake:
This is an unauthorized reprint, also known as counterfeit. While the methods to create these forgeries may change and improve over time, here are some previously known differences to help identify fakes - http://www.leeasher.com/playground/arti ... cards.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
That should make things more clear and with that I believe they should remain.
