New Swag

[moogoo]

some messages seem like it's a new forum member, some seem like a bot. but either way all four were today. I think they're just more context-aware now. We'll see if they respond LOL.

haha indeed we will find out. but yeah, bots are getting better these days with contextual awareness..

Now I’m in an existential crisis wondering if I’m a bot and just didn’t realize it…… Happy Thursday!

Hahahaha. I started getting into the team last year and was lurking for a few months before deciding to contribute. Feels like joining a friend group where everyone knows each other for years and has a history together.

Not sure if the person you are referring to is a bot from earlier in the chain. I just jumped in to try and be funny.

Wow these AI bots are getting scary.










Just kidding, welcome!

maybe a stupid question, but what do bots get out of posting on forums?

When I come to the site I almost always save the New Swag thread for last as it's pretty much my favorite. Today I have come to deeply regret that decision LOL

No comment on the price, but outside the badge, this letter-only logo looks like ass compared to the original. I still think the new badge is fine, but with no context these interlocking letters look like a 9-year old made them.

This appears to be some kind of a special release. I'd wait until they release regular stuff with the new logo next season.

Counterpoint: I like this one better than the original. The old one to me looks like someone with no experience took a graphics program and used the line tool to draw the letters. Like the Y, for example. It's three straight lines with three more straight line serifs tacked on each end cap. The new one looks like a designer was given the old logo and asked to fix it. The old letters are too thin, are so dissimilarly sized, and are just sort of tossed together. The new letters have much more weight to them, feel physically connected, and are "organically" shaped. In other words, they're not stick figures stuck together, they're solid letters with weight to them, and have gentle curves implying the serifs rather then bonking you over the head with them.

In short, the new logo was designed where the old one was just kind of thrown together.
