To a degree yes. If a team were to majorly rebrand itself despite having a classic logo, it would be heinous and ruin their brand. However I rarely see classic NBA teams do as such. Sure the Magic have done that, but when we think of the original NBA teams that are iconic, I don't think Magic come to mind.
You also have to look at the commonality of such events. The Magic case is their alternate jerseys they won't typically wear. If they were to rebrand their main jersey, then there would be issues

I like the designs of the jerseys. Needless to say I care more about the performance than the jerseys

This was the correct verdict. As much as the left will complain, whine, and cry for mommy, Rittenhouse did not do anything wrong in the scenario he was put in.

This is a complete joke even if the OP itself is horrible, but this has long term consequences in general
1. YouTubers themselves already have the ability to filter out comments that they deem inappropriate. With this new feature, they can now hide behind a wall when they fail to take accountability for the actions they committed. Example, if someone is accused of sexual harassment and such and they make a video denying these allegations, they can hide behind the like counter and disable the dislikes to not show the whole opinion. It's restricting public opinion on a certain matter to benefit the creator itself.
2. YouTube themselves has used this feature on their videos to censor dislikes. They censored the dislikes on their video discussing the feature to make it seem like this is a positive change as well.
What Grey is saying is a stretch, but the impact it could have can spill over to what he is referring to. This is a poor move on YouTube

After the changes made in the deluxe, the order is cluttered and not a fan of the changes. Despite that, the album is great

The album of year has been dropped, and it's not Kanye. Silk Sonic (Bruno Mars & Anderson .Paak) have created a short, sweet, masterpiece thats effect will ripple for years to come. This album combines funk jazz with sad heartbreak of the classic jazz and Stevie Wonder era in a way unique way. The energy of both artists is unparalleled
Leave the Door Open
9.1/10
Fly As Me

That's not what his goal was but continue believing the agenda spread by Twitter
FYI, go read the actual case. Not Twitter

The prosecution is a joke. I think anyone on this site could make a better prosecutor

Is one of the most pathetic prosecution I’ve ever seen. I think anyone here could be a better prosecutor than the ones going on in the trial. Yet the media still claims there’s bias

I didn't follow much this election but the fact that Virginia flipped red is sorta crazy. Hopefully some policy will get done. I remember vividly when Bruce Rauner won the governmental race in Illinois and then his tenure leading to him becoming a puppy dog for Dems and the as a result, getting blown out in 2018. Still, it does show a lot about the outcomes of the next election, as in 2016, Trump won.

@thett3
I would agree with your statement on this issue. You have great points about what you're saying in general, but I also do think you weigh the impact on your school return rate for a certain degree. You can still get jobs that returns a positive, but also note to scale up in the world of whatever you'd like, it's important to look at the university.
I've talked to many employers and such, and if you're university is ranked in the Top 10 for your major, employers immediately perk up if your resume is decent. If you are done with school after college, grades aren't as important. Doesn't mean you should slack off, but they don't carry the weight they had in high school. However, if you plan on going to graduate school for law, then you most likely need to have better grades.
Fyi I'm a business finance major

I am going to respond to this in full when I get back from classes. I agree with what you say for the most part though, but I will respond more in depth

That sucks. Hope everything is better on the personal end
I did feel near the end the situation turned very much into a witch hunt for him to step down. I wish he still could've been posting

@MarkWebberFan
We are not banning him for his opinions and such. The rhetoric in what he said is not only excessive, it is illegal in which what he said and uses a derogatory term. This rhetoric is not rhetoric on a debating site used to debate, but to stir attention and cause commotion versus being intellectual
Ultimately, his rhetoric violated the SPES and COC. He warned various times for his rhetoric as well, yet failed to comply and as a result. Received a ban. Also note this isn't a permanent ban, but a temporary ban

@MarkWebberFan
So you would consider saying "The taliban r*** children and kill (derogatory for people of LGBTQ+)" as not explicit enough to cause a ban
We aren't banning people for their views, but the language they use. If that is the case, Wylted could've been banned awhile ago for his controversial views

Looking back, it looked like more of a witch hunt versus an actual call for action
I think what led to his decline was his questionable bans up to that point. To be clear, I thought bsh was an excellent mod, but up to the incident, his bans were pretty bad
With his joke obviously being regrettable and all, if it were any other member, this would've been put to the side and forgotten. However, since he held such authority on the site, it was almost expected he acted adequately

Going to put this game on hold for the moment. My schedule is packed the next coming weeks and I simply won't have time to host this mafia game along with the other responsibilities. Plus it seems like there is a lack of interest in playing mafia ATM, this game will go on hold until further notice

Fair enough. I might have taken it as more of a concern but my way of reading it (internet diction and tone, don't we love it). But I'm glad you are liking the system

Chris was very busy with school and such. We had these bans in place for a while, but never could act until we had full perception of what he wanted. Yes the timing of it is ironically bad, but the bans were in due time adding up. Ethang's was discussed for weeks, BrotherD's for weeks, and Wylted was constantly pushing the border and his excessive vulgarity ultimately pulled trigger.
I personally was against the Mesmer ban, but I was personally was out voted on the issue by both Whiteflame and MisterChris

Did you forget the parts about the mod consistently warning you about the rhetoric you use being a violation of the CoC.
We are not banning you for your views, but the rhetoric used to describe those views is excessively vulgar and as such, warranted you a 14 day ban
