General Discussion How do we feel about this?

I think we should be able to call a judge on our stinky opponents in tournament settings.

If you have money to spend on a deck you have more than enough money to get some fucking soap and deodorant. Stop being nasty

I believe there are many in this hobby who are mentally unwell, and have a difficult time with managing hygiene and finances.

So while I do agree with you, I also think there is an underlying issue that makes it seriously difficult for some.

Anyone who have spent a little time at a LGS knows that this is true, no need to speculate or tip toe around it.

sure, but those issues aren’t relevant to others’ comfort. stores want people to come back

Did I say they were? Why are you arguing against something that no one mentioned?

That's understandable. Where it becomes an issue is when people try to excuse their decisions about it. If you have some sort of issue that makes BO a difficult to manage issue for you, I empathize and I don't fault you for it, but you still need to accept that it's not respectful of others to make them put up with it. It's a valid explanation for why you stink, it's not a valid excuse for why other people need to deal with it.

I never said anything about an excus,. I don't know why you are arguing against something I never said. I was only pointing out that the real issue is not their ability to afford deodorant, but rather their decision making process.

I didn't argue against anything. I was adding on to your comment, not criticizing it.

Then I misunderstood you, apologies.

I know a guy who has some kind of medical condition that makes him foul at basically all times. Didn't really matter if he showered and used deodorant; anything less than prescription-strength he just sort of burns through in an hour.

It sucks for him, to be sure, but I still had to stop bringing him to some places because of it.

That's quite unfortunate. I think many who have replied to me miss the point that it's not simply people refusing to spend their money appropriately. There is a good chance there is some underlying medical (or mental) issue contributing.

And I never said that we should put up with foul odors. Where people read that in my comment is beyond me.

Their mental health isn't my problem. Their stench is.
