The Reality of 2021
Added 2021-01-29 00:31:44 +0000 UTCPLEASE READ THIS ENTIRE MESSAGE
I have implemented some hard nasty choices this week.
These are required for me to move forward and handle the changing environment.
1. Due to 400-600 messages with every magic release asking why tracking numbers are not updating then a product isnt released yet, i will no longer be replying to these messages until 5 days post release date.
Every sale post has the actual ship date posted.
I am getting hit with paypal disputes/chargebacks from patrons for literally no reaon and its very suspicious.
2. Friendly reminder, once you click that paypal dispute/chargback button you are auto banned on all platforms and all orders canceled for life and moved to the community blacklist between 25 stores.
Why people are disputing Kaldheim products that are not even released yet...i will never understand.
3. Every time you send multiple messages you are reseting yourself in the message que.
4. I am no longer guaranteeing any responses in the private messages anymore. It is a lost cause.
I appreicate the support and hope everyone can undersand the reality of the situation.
thanks
-Rudy

Couldn’t have said it better. Same here
2021-02-02 00:47:13 +0000 UTCPeople need to learn to read more than just the title to posts. It never fails, every sale it’s the same questions. I don’t blame you. Just reading comments is enough to trigger someone. Weed out the Timmy’s! The only problem is you have more waiting for someone to leave or get booted. Patreon really needs to fix that loophole. You closed everything for a reason!
2021-01-31 05:47:06 +0000 UTCDamnit, how come my modern horizons 3 hasn’t shipped yet!! Damn you Rudy and your shenanigans!! Hahaha. Stay the course, some people just don’t know how to read posts anymore
2021-01-30 23:50:39 +0000 UTCDamn shame Rudy people suck.
Januaryboy
2021-01-30 19:42:47 +0000 UTCall good bro
Krepsy k
2021-01-30 13:41:04 +0000 UTCNo, you are absolutely correct. Patreon has always been “Support for creator first, distribution for us second.” Rudy should exile anyone that is ONLY here to make a fast buck. Money will come to those that stay the course and treat people with respect.

2021-01-30 02:10:35 +0000 UTCI appreciate all that you do Rudy!
Joey Santiago
2021-01-30 02:08:20 +0000 UTCRudy!! Take mah money!! Never had an issue.
2021-01-30 01:22:27 +0000 UTCThis
2021-01-30 01:17:09 +0000 UTCIs there a sale today?
S. Wang
2021-01-30 01:03:09 +0000 UTCi have purchased IMO a LOT from Rudy and have never once had an issue. Even if i had i am 100% confident that issue could be resolved quickly and easily through direct communication with him. I continue forward to 'stay the course' and support his enthusiasm, insight and the opportunities he provides to us.
Steven Parks
2021-01-29 23:15:32 +0000 UTCI mean you're selling at a loss if that's not enough for people then you are entitled to hammer down as many harsh rules as you need.
2021-01-29 21:29:03 +0000 UTCTHIS is why we can't have nice things...thanks we broke Rudy...
2021-01-29 18:59:47 +0000 UTC+1
2021-01-29 18:40:48 +0000 UTCCurse of popularity, Rudy! Much love and tacos.✌️
Daniel E. Passaro
2021-01-29 17:31:12 +0000 UTCSending love and the floppiest of tacos. You are a huge source of inspiration. Thank you for everything you've done Rudy! P.S. I hope you made a killing off of GME.
2021-01-29 17:24:25 +0000 UTCTHIN THE HEARD!!
2021-01-29 16:43:08 +0000 UTCThin the herd bro..... it wouldn’t break my heart to see you scale back all slots to those who really want to be here. This world is changing, and I can’t say that I like what I’m seeing. People have become rude and demanding hiding behind their phones and computers.....thanks again Rudy for all that you do. And if I should need to ask a question in the future....no hurry whatsoever....,
Steven Keith
2021-01-29 15:51:44 +0000 UTCOn behalf of everyone, I'm sorry that it came to this and we put you in this spot. For years you have been a shining example of how to interact with your community. It seems though when you gave us an inch we took a mile and now have to deal with the consequences. Do what you need to do, it's understandable. Stay the course.
2021-01-29 15:51:24 +0000 UTCIf you want fresh tacos you have to pay more at the store. I want frozen month old tacos where I have to shave off that freezer burn with a sword (of feast and famine) onto my platter of reserved list cards.
Kevin Dirth
2021-01-29 15:37:16 +0000 UTCI understand and I'm with you.
Chris A
2021-01-29 15:27:01 +0000 UTCYou do you Rudy. I’m still a fanboy. Thank you for your dedication
2021-01-29 14:57:33 +0000 UTCPut out s ban list so i can grab me a $15 spot!!!!

2021-01-29 13:03:26 +0000 UTCMessage received Cap'n. STAY THE FLIPPIN COURSE
Israel Solis
2021-01-29 13:02:51 +0000 UTCPeople really are strange considering that there cant be any new patrons. So, they should know how this all works. Hell, I support more for the vids, I barely get any product. Rudy, do what you need to do.
Andrew N
2021-01-29 12:05:27 +0000 UTCPeople are silly.. so so silly. Either way, we understand and we appreciate you!
2021-01-29 09:19:40 +0000 UTCNever had a problem with any of my orders. People need to have a little patience!
Michael Keith
2021-01-29 08:17:32 +0000 UTCDo what you gotta do Rudy. We still love ya.
2021-01-29 07:52:25 +0000 UTCTakes too much. time and energy to deal with it. Ban those turds, over and done with. Thank you for everything that you do, I'll continue to support every step of the way.
2021-01-29 07:49:01 +0000 UTCMuch love and support to Rudy the King! It really is special that you reply at all, you give a tremendous amount for our patronage, we appreciate you Rudy!
2021-01-29 07:41:12 +0000 UTCYou got this! Thanks for responding at all over the years. I can’t think of another person/personality that cares about their fans and supporters as much as you do!
2021-01-29 07:35:30 +0000 UTCThank you for replying at all. I think that’s a huge amount of work and time to dedicate to some many people.
2021-01-29 07:16:58 +0000 UTCSince some people think that Rudy buy bulk and the product will fly out before the actual release, a good FAQ can be useful to turn down disputers and all the garbage messages IMHO
2021-01-29 07:16:17 +0000 UTCUnderstandable. Have a good day captain
Giggie
2021-01-29 07:03:04 +0000 UTCWith the amount you do daily it makes sense :) so no hard feelings. Why people can't just chill about orders, idk, everyone wants things instantly.
CH-jho09
2021-01-29 06:35:29 +0000 UTCI appreciate everything you do!
Tracy Reeves
2021-01-29 06:06:59 +0000 UTCWEll personally, I appreciate the fact that you even find the time to reply to my DMs. People that expect it do not value your time, so I appreciate when you do reply. you say you wont guarantee it, which is fair. Thank again sir, stay the course!
Rahkzin
2021-01-29 06:06:27 +0000 UTCFucking hell Rudy, I can't believe you put up with that shit for this long. I know you want to do everything you can. For your loyal patreon supporters but some people are just not worth keeping around when they act this way. Kicking them to the curb will make the entire community that much better and I wholeheartedly support everything you're implementing today.
2021-01-29 05:58:16 +0000 UTCI hope the attrition rate on this dissention in the ranks is high and we are shaved down into a top notch company of only utopian ruudites asap
2021-01-29 05:14:57 +0000 UTCImpatient people are costing me actual message replies from Rudy. Not cool guys. I don't understand your issue on the matter. U just need to wait. If one week after release the tracking numbers have not updated then it would be acceptable to contact Rudy surely...... Seriously........
2021-01-29 04:54:25 +0000 UTCRudy needs 2 Sol Rings and 1 Wasteland to cast a Reality Smasher and turn it sideways.
Kenny Nguyen
2021-01-29 04:43:30 +0000 UTCI appreciate the vids, the knowledge, and your time Rudy!
Stephen Pierson
2021-01-29 04:32:50 +0000 UTCI don't like it when the Taco Guy is sad, it makes me sad... :(
2021-01-29 04:24:24 +0000 UTCIt’s been going on for to long. I’ve never not had something show up once ordered
Christopher
2021-01-29 03:59:08 +0000 UTCYou pride yourself on reading all the messages, but if tons are duplicate than maybe you can automate them or hire a firm to respond. Then you only get the the important messages that you can respond to.
2021-01-29 03:56:17 +0000 UTCRudy, Haters gonna hate and Timmy's are gonna "Tim". Too many people expect it now, feel entitled to it now and whine and moan when they don't get it now. Stay the course.
JODY MCCULLOUGH
2021-01-29 03:55:21 +0000 UTCThanks for all that you do Rudy. It’s been rough times for damn near everyone, but I will always appreciate the videos, the knowledge, and the passion you put in to all of this. I know many feel the same.
2021-01-29 03:37:06 +0000 UTCDamn, was just going to send a message earlier but I guess Rudy is so impacted that it's not a good time :\
2021-01-29 03:31:29 +0000 UTCStay strong Rudy! Diamond Hands don't need tracking updates!
2021-01-29 03:21:58 +0000 UTCRudy has never and will never disappoint. It makes no sense that people get impatient and demand their money back for, like Rudy said, a set that hasnt even come out yet. Stay the course and everything will be fine
Nick Newton
2021-01-29 03:11:15 +0000 UTCWay to go Rudy. You show them what for! I can't believe these people who are doing chargebacks for products that haven't even been released yet?!?!? crazy. Those people don't know patience. I'm guessing that these are all new patrons. People who have been with you over the past 5 years should know well enough by now and also should be very familiar with your business model and expectations.
Philip Chiu
2021-01-29 03:09:59 +0000 UTCHaven't new patrons been disabled for like a year now? You would think that people would understand the system by now, good riddance to any of the impatient people, hope it lightens the load.
DJ Andrews
2021-01-29 03:04:47 +0000 UTCSo people are doing charge backs because they believe the product isn't shipping? Is it people just being shady?
2021-01-29 03:04:46 +0000 UTCSorry for any inconvenience Rudy. I'll stay the course all the same.
Daniel Shipley
2021-01-29 02:57:18 +0000 UTCAs a famous man once said, “ C’mon man!!!” Rudy’s cool happy to give him my $$ so he can keep me entertained
2021-01-29 02:29:00 +0000 UTCWhy do people have to fucking ruin shit for others??? I like being able to get a response from Rudy If I ask him a question...even if it’s dumb he always responds. Now that is in Jeopardy...fuck
2021-01-29 02:26:18 +0000 UTCBig love to you Rude Man. The real ones understand.

2021-01-29 02:19:26 +0000 UTCStay strong Rudy. Stay the course!
macleod2486
2021-01-29 02:19:23 +0000 UTCI can take a dump in a box and mark it guaranteed for you if you'd like, I have time.
2021-01-29 02:18:41 +0000 UTCThanks for continuing to offer us products at a loss!
2021-01-29 02:17:38 +0000 UTCUnderstandable Rudy :)
2021-01-29 02:14:47 +0000 UTCStay the course
2021-01-29 02:10:28 +0000 UTCYES RUDY!!!! Way to put the hammer down!! This needed to be done for sure! Best way to sort out the bad apples!!
2021-01-29 02:04:14 +0000 UTCPreach.
Brian
2021-01-29 02:01:27 +0000 UTCMuch love and peace
Gage Calvin
2021-01-29 02:00:42 +0000 UTCI imagine the recent kaldheim box opening videos on youtube sparked some of that, though I dont know how people can go completely nuclear and chargeback something that isnt even officially out yet
Double Octave
2021-01-29 01:59:44 +0000 UTCDo you carry an of those gamestop stock options? How much for a case?
2021-01-29 01:59:41 +0000 UTCTotally onboard with all the changes, keep up the good work my friend.
William Whiteman
2021-01-29 01:58:50 +0000 UTCSounds like spots are opening up for new patrons.
2021-01-29 01:52:56 +0000 UTCLike you have always said, don't make financial decisions based on emotion. "Oh man Rudy created this shipping label but hasn't shipped my shit and its been 2 weeks! Lazy bastard, I want my case of Kaldheim commanders!" "I'm not even going to message Rudy and wait to get a rational explanation! I'm gonna dispute my PayPal transaction!"
Joel McAlister
2021-01-29 01:52:10 +0000 UTCWhere do I dispute the upcoming sets for 2034? I have yet to see any tracking number. I also demand that they be at 2004 prices due to the inconvenience placed on me. May the floppy tacos always be in your favor.
2021-01-29 01:52:06 +0000 UTCThere are some impatient mother truckers out there. I buy to play and not to collect. Sometimes people forget this is a game.
2021-01-29 01:50:43 +0000 UTCReading is so hard for some people. 🥴
Dr. Applesauce
2021-01-29 01:47:33 +0000 UTCHaters going to hate. Always some troll out there trying to ruin a good thing for the rest of us honest Patrons. Just joined up before he closed his Patreon. Not once was I ever disappointed. And his investment advice is sound.
2021-01-29 01:46:25 +0000 UTCWell, that is one way to weed out the toxic patrons! I don’t blame you at all. Everything I have ordered has been shipped exactly when you said it would and arrived promptly. There are way too many people in this day and age that have zero patience. Happy to continue to be a patron and stay the course! Love your content and happy to support what you do. :)
2021-01-29 01:45:46 +0000 UTCI will have to apologize, I sent that question when I ordered commander legends because that was the first time I had ever ordered from you before. You were very polite and helpful with your response though! So I appreciate that!
2021-01-29 01:40:40 +0000 UTCIt's all the Timmys needing that cash freed up to put it into GameStop.
2021-01-29 01:35:51 +0000 UTCHe's been saying this for months now. This isn't some new position of his.
2021-01-29 01:35:05 +0000 UTCThose boxes should’ve been at my door a week ago!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Caleb P
2021-01-29 01:30:44 +0000 UTCLoyal Patron for life, Rudy has ALWAYS responded to me and everything has always shipped on time and usually arrives early. Their loss our gain on sale days. #staythecourse
Paul Boulanger
2021-01-29 01:30:37 +0000 UTCSeems like everyone covered it. Thanks Rudy much love. Agree with all patreons. Negative people always ruin a good thing. Extremely thankful for everything Rudy brings to the table for patrons.
Adam Cox
2021-01-29 01:29:37 +0000 UTCI'm pretty sure he just doesn't want to guarantee responses to people flaming him over things he has already explained, worry not fellow traveler

2021-01-29 01:27:02 +0000 UTCRight on Rudy. Fuck the needy nerds.

2021-01-29 01:24:02 +0000 UTCThat's what I'm saying. I've never had a problem with my items arriving
Phillip Graham
2021-01-29 01:23:23 +0000 UTCI dont understand why there's some shady people out there buying stuff then trying to screw u. Sorry Rudy! You have my loyalty. I never ask about shipping cuz you've always delivered. Keep up the hard work! Most of us greatly appreciate it!
Phillip Graham
2021-01-29 01:22:03 +0000 UTCTons of orders and not one issue with Rudy shipping my product. Its the same damn schedule as everyone else shipping magic boxes! Sorry dude it sucks when people dont read the directions. =(
John Moberly
2021-01-29 01:21:32 +0000 UTCI have to admit that I understand but am disappointed. I am hoping that Rudy will still be able to reply, but just not with a guarantee on a timeframe to reply. Some of us ask serious investment and more specifically TCG investment questions and rely on Rudy's advice and conversation. Perhaps there is a way to create a small paywall for those that are serious. I would pay a few more tendies to continue the conversation on a regular basis. Rudy, maybe a secondary Patreon for just communication for the 300-400 serious Patreons on here at $5 or $10? Not sure the economics but maybe an invite only or something. Just brainstorming.
BrewCrew75
2021-01-29 01:20:04 +0000 UTCYour rules seem pretty simple. I am very grateful for the service you provide. (giggity)
2021-01-29 01:18:34 +0000 UTCSo I'm fairly new here, almost 1 month old but man thats rough! Its hard to believe all that is true.. I mean you explain everything in such great detail on all the post and not to mention the community is super helpful too. Like how do peeps not understand??
2021-01-29 01:18:30 +0000 UTCAppreciate the service! Never had an issue..Keep up the great work!
2021-01-29 01:16:26 +0000 UTCThanks for the update Rudy! Can't believe that people don't read shipping information when it is posted with the purchase information at the same time.
2021-01-29 01:14:30 +0000 UTCI dispute all these comments.
2021-01-29 01:12:10 +0000 UTCYou do you Rudy, I enjoy the vids and in grateful for the deals
2021-01-29 01:12:05 +0000 UTCThank you for your support and the availability for great deals. Our interactions have always been positive and to the point, Stay the course! Keep being awesome!
Jeremy Guill
2021-01-29 01:11:43 +0000 UTCTheir loss. On the plus side, it’ll open some Patreon spots for people who hopefully won’t be as dense.

2021-01-29 01:09:04 +0000 UTCAppreciate what you do Rudy, thank you! 🙏
2021-01-29 01:08:55 +0000 UTCWe love and support you Rudy! You’re an amazing person and I aspire to be as financially stable and wise as you are. PS I love when Rudy brings out the Dad voice.
Ben Magiera
2021-01-29 01:08:54 +0000 UTCThank you for everything you have done for us Timmy's this far. You have gone out of your way for me on already more than one occasion and I have been your patron for 2 months. You're the s*** f*** these nerds :)
Matthew Renne
2021-01-29 01:08:12 +0000 UTCSorry Rudy , keep up the good work.
Chris Segura
2021-01-29 01:06:47 +0000 UTCNo worries! I can only imagine the stress. It takes a lot of responsibility and hard decisions to run a business esp one with so much fomo
Troy Graham
2021-01-29 01:06:37 +0000 UTCWhy is everyone worried about tracking? Anything I have purchased from Rudy has always arrived. Most of the time, it arrives before I expect it. All you have to do is read his posts....they tell you when they will ship and when tracking will be updated! Don’t worry Rudy, some f us older patrons will always be here for you!
Bob S
2021-01-29 01:05:49 +0000 UTCReally sucks to hear this Rudy, just goes to prove that people cannot RTFM or Post in this case. If patrons can't even respect the few rules you put in place prior to this they should look elsewhere to acquire magic. Most of all it really hurts that because some people couldn't be patient that you wont be able to guarantee answering questions from people who were wanting to have some meaningful discussion on TCG related subjects.
2021-01-29 01:04:14 +0000 UTCStay the course.
2021-01-29 01:03:11 +0000 UTCI don't get why some people constantly question shipping, Rudy isn't out to screw your orders. Second maybe you should ban return to senders and those who just order and keep bouncing the process, screwing over those who actually want in.
2021-01-29 01:01:58 +0000 UTCI feel for you man. You do an excellent job and we love you. Keep up the good work. 👍

2021-01-29 01:01:06 +0000 UTCThe true fans are here to stay and we would never think to do shady shit like that. I am so sorry you have to deal with that shit. We love you and are here to support YOU! WE LOVE YOU RUDY!! Thank you so much for everything you do.
Dominic Balassone
2021-01-29 01:00:00 +0000 UTCNot that I think it's justified, but I wonder how much of this has to do with Rudy going on his rant about Wizards yesterday. I can see people feeling like it was a bait and switch to wait until after he took orders for Kaldheim product to go on a rant how contemporary cards are worthless.
2021-01-29 00:59:22 +0000 UTCDo what you need to rudy. It’s clear as day the instructions you put out. Completely understand the message here and agree to it. Thank you Dr. Rudy
Thomas
2021-01-29 00:58:37 +0000 UTCAlways suggest that if people have questions or are confused about shipping etc, they just ask on a post. Someone’s gonna help. Rudy’s a busy taco eating monster and can’t respond to every panicked person
2021-01-29 00:58:22 +0000 UTCF 'em. In theory as you get rid of these special people, every person snaking in to take their place has to the potential NOT to be a special person. In theory.
2021-01-29 00:57:20 +0000 UTCFor all you assholes that are pming him about orders. Eat shit and leave. This is getting very stupid that he has to do this shit because some of you are children and expect a response like some desperate lonely person. A lot of people like talking to Rudy about normal shit and this ruins it because you have no damn patience or the inability to read anything. For everyone else that has been good and following his posts and reading it all. Thank you for not being a dummy.
Gold
2021-01-29 00:56:45 +0000 UTCRudy in YOLO mode!
2021-01-29 00:56:33 +0000 UTCSo many Timmys playing the short game. Sealed cardboard is not something you can "squeeze" and even if you get $1000 in cards at Rudy's expense, you still gotta hold to get any "ROI" Sorry to hear about all the dickbags infiltrating the Patron list
2021-01-29 00:56:27 +0000 UTCHi Rudy, I feel like this whole issue would be fixed if you didn’t say you would send out tracking info on the 27th. Just send tracking the day they are shipped. I bet people would be happier. I often times find that if your posts are confusing with the fact that you are sending shipping info so far in advance of you being able to ship the product. Also for what it’s worth I didn’t order anything from any recent sets.
2021-01-29 00:56:10 +0000 UTCTimmies, Rudy provides a service for the TCG community. He has enough money invested in cardboard that he can walk away anytime. Please do not ruin Alpha Investments for those who enjoy supporting the channel.
2021-01-29 00:55:42 +0000 UTCGood, only should be open to people who are truly interested. I know someone who I told to subscribe to you who is chomping at the bit to be a patreon member.
Smithereens
2021-01-29 00:55:22 +0000 UTCPerfecto! These dummies are thinking what? Now after years of consistently helping the mtg community you are going to screw people? We have a message board people! If you are nervous about it. Go to the other guy doing this for everyone.. ohh wait. There is no other guy. Have some patience and appreciation for Rudy. He owes us NOTHING! He doesn't have too do this to make money. Go easy people!
2021-01-29 00:55:02 +0000 UTCPeople are just impatient and never read anything. Its f****ing annoying. I deal with this kind of crap on a Facebook page I run so I sympathize heavily.
2021-01-29 00:54:56 +0000 UTCIK I feel bad, 'cause I've sent stupid questions a couple of times... If everyone worked as much as Rudy, the world would be a very different place

2021-01-29 00:51:26 +0000 UTCYo! I was about to say this in so many more words. Thanks for saving my time.
2021-01-29 00:51:24 +0000 UTCRudy, thanks for all you do!

2021-01-29 00:51:06 +0000 UTCIt's possible, but risky. My best results, with some scientific backup, is sleeving the cards once, raising the humidity in the room with a humidifier over 50%, and then smashing them flat with a weight (just heavy enough to flatten, no need to go overboard or they might not absorb the moisture). Do that for a couple days and then lower the humidity back to normal and remove the cards.

2021-01-29 00:49:59 +0000 UTCAnother wonderful thing to come out of another wonderful year *shrug* Leave it to the few that shouldn’t be Patrons to begin with ruin something nice for the rest of us. Hope all is well Rudy, looking forward to more MtG and FaB (Yes, I’m in the Taco Supreme bubble)
2021-01-29 00:49:54 +0000 UTCstay frosty rudy!
2021-01-29 00:49:25 +0000 UTCWhen has rudy not shipped something? Quit asking for tracking and screwing this up for everyone.

2021-01-29 00:49:21 +0000 UTC🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽 Youve done more than enough for many of us. You’ve essentially changed the world of TCGs. i support this decision.
2021-01-29 00:48:49 +0000 UTCMuch love Rudy. Appreciate all your hard work and everything you do for us!! You’ve got my support and my money till the end friend!
2021-01-29 00:48:09 +0000 UTCTheres tons of sympathy in these messages for Rudy. I think we all understand that he's a machine working 70+ hrs a week to bring us sweet sales and content. Keep your head up Rudy. There's a lot of us that never have issues or the need to send messages cause you always deliver hassle free. Your the man Rudy!!
2021-01-29 00:47:38 +0000 UTCDo what you must Sir. The vast majority of us appreciate all your hard work. Does anyone know if "taco" shaped cards can be revived? I have a whole booster box of exodus commons my brother left in an attic for years. I've convinced a few to take a normal shape, but I'm worried they're a lost cause.
2021-01-29 00:46:58 +0000 UTCStay the course, and stay healthy! I still can't believe how you were able to respond so much before, it was inhuman. I'll support until you retire from this :)
Gojira
2021-01-29 00:46:54 +0000 UTCHey, thinning the herd sounds good to me, keep the disputes coming! more sealed product for me 🥳. But in all seriousness, thanks for the transparency Rudy. Keep up the good work, can’t wait to invest in Rudycoin after cashing in my GME and selling all my tacos.
2021-01-29 00:46:24 +0000 UTCI'm sorry you are having to deal with those people Rudy.... I hope the good amoung us outweighs the bad ones and still make it worth it for you to continue
Daniel Langworthy
2021-01-29 00:46:23 +0000 UTCThis is why we can’t have nice things. Some people just ruin it for everyone and it ends up not being worth the frustration for those trying to make it happen.

2021-01-29 00:46:11 +0000 UTCYou mean to tell me WOTC doesn't send you product a month early?

2021-01-29 00:46:03 +0000 UTCsorry to see ya forced to do this, stay the course captain
2021-01-29 00:45:33 +0000 UTC:( oh I just came back from my deployment and didn't realize how swamped you might be, sorry for DMing you twice, just wanted to make sure my order went through the paypal email I've used in the past was "AlphainvestmentEbay@gmail.com" and then I noticed on your post that the EBAY is all caps. I don't think that should be an issue, but wanted to double check.

2021-01-29 00:45:21 +0000 UTCAny collector Kaldheim boxes left over for this bottom dweller patron?
2021-01-29 00:45:15 +0000 UTCAbsolutely agree with that decision. Some people just can't read and are absolutely relentless about things. Keep on doing what you're doing!
burnmeplenty
2021-01-29 00:45:08 +0000 UTCHe just said he's not going to guarantee response anymore. I'd bet dollars to dimes that he'll still respond to the vast majority of messages, probably just ignore the incredibly stupid ones.
2021-01-29 00:44:48 +0000 UTCGood on you!

2021-01-29 00:44:19 +0000 UTCSorry to hear people have no patience, and forget to read your entire post those rare times you presale something to us. We are all grateful for all your content, and the fact you are willing to sale products to us.
2021-01-29 00:44:13 +0000 UTCSadly enough, reading comprehension skills are *really* bad in the wild. As a business owner myself, I really wish this wasn’t the situation, but it’s the reality.
Dav the WarlordCardGamer
2021-01-29 00:44:04 +0000 UTCSorry you have to deal with so much bullshit. We appreciate you Rudy.
2021-01-29 00:43:06 +0000 UTCWe love you Rudy! Do what’s best for your health and sanity.
2021-01-29 00:42:57 +0000 UTCUnfortunate that it needed to get to this point, but I think we collectively agree the decision. Let’s give their reputations a nice Viking funeral.
2021-01-29 00:42:53 +0000 UTC❤ thanks for what you do. Sorry for the trouble people cause you. 🙇♂️
2021-01-29 00:42:33 +0000 UTCCan we use the “stop tape” we received on those people, or is that a waste of tape?
2021-01-29 00:42:24 +0000 UTCAppreciate everything you do Rudy!!! Don’t let the idiots schemers get you down!
Jeremy Kennedy
2021-01-29 00:42:02 +0000 UTCStay the course, Rudy!!
Steven
2021-01-29 00:41:53 +0000 UTCIt's that old rule. 20% of your people will cause 80% of your problems. hopefully rudy just ignores the tracking messages
Derek
2021-01-29 00:41:37 +0000 UTCLove ya Rudy! Stay the course!
2021-01-29 00:41:35 +0000 UTCI was kinda questioning why mine wasn't updating either but it didn't take long to put 2 and 2 together...😂
Joshua Small
2021-01-29 00:41:26 +0000 UTCWere here for you rudy!! So sorry your having these troubles
2021-01-29 00:41:23 +0000 UTCThanks for all the work you're doing! Also everyone don't forget the mail stream is still back logged with Christmas as I'd hate to inform.
2021-01-29 00:41:15 +0000 UTCAll good man! Absolutely love supporting you!
2021-01-29 00:41:11 +0000 UTCFor everyone who is disputing charges yall need a life and #2 please get banned so i cam take ur spot ik the legacy teir
2021-01-29 00:40:48 +0000 UTCHold the line, Diamond Hands and Stay the course, we got your back Rudy
Ryan Pennington
2021-01-29 00:40:43 +0000 UTCSheesh. That’s all crazy. I’ve been in sales all my life, and this is why I’m thrilled I haven’t dealt with the public in years. Because they’re idiots generally. Keep up the good work Rudy, people who aren’t morons appreciate you ! 😛🙃
Erod
2021-01-29 00:40:28 +0000 UTCHonestly, I am surprised you held out this long after blowing up bro.
2021-01-29 00:40:25 +0000 UTCWho da f*** does a chargeback for no reason?
2021-01-29 00:40:22 +0000 UTCDid everyone already get their tracking number emailed? I haven’t received mine yet, it’s the 28th. But didn’t want to bug Rudy yet. Should I be?
ThinkFWD
2021-01-29 00:40:17 +0000 UTCGezz sorry to hear that Rudy. Keep up the good work haters gonna hate
kyle hagan
2021-01-29 00:40:04 +0000 UTCWhat a weird thing for people to just do. You’ve never given the impression of getting product early so that’s just stupid. I sent you a friendly message earlier, totally forgot that your inbox would be spammed for the new set. I’m a patron for the entertainment. I’ve only purchased maybe a grand worth of product total. Videos such as the Q&A video done yesterday are why I’m here
2021-01-29 00:39:43 +0000 UTCWe love you Rudy, don't forget that! Guys, it's really simple, stay calm, eat a taco, and don't be a Timmy. Rudy will get to your stuff. I've been here since pretty much the beginning, and he's always come through. I've never seen a single case of him screwing someone over. The amount of volume he's moving now is insane, but he still does it for the love of the game and his Patrons. He very clearly doesn't need the money. So please, show the guy some respect, and relax!

Frank Sek
2021-01-29 00:39:05 +0000 UTCKeep up the great content and deals Rudy!! I am very glad to be a patron of yours. I don't see how people buy things without reading the details. Every sale post has been very clear when things will ship. Not to mention that WOTC also is clear on the street date for releases. Clear out the idiots and make room for new patrons who will appreciate what you do.
2021-01-29 00:39:05 +0000 UTCDon't worry about those knuckleheads. We love you Rudy!!!
2021-01-29 00:39:01 +0000 UTCDamn rudy your setup is pretty simple. Are people this stupid? Oh wait youve made your fame talking about timmys. If your gonna dispute a product. Lol do one thats worth a life bann😂
2021-01-29 00:39:01 +0000 UTCCull the weak. They are likely riding as the price to crack is cheaper. Understandable as many of us, including myself, love to open and play... however, it is not how I view being a patreon. I crack packs from my LGS so it survives. I shelf these boxes. We are here for the longterm, holding sealed product. If I order, I know it will arrive. It always has. If for some reason it didn't, I would never assume its a Rudy problem, I'd assume its a usps problem.
Brenton L Drake
2021-01-29 00:38:21 +0000 UTCIt's all good, Rudy. I hope you have more time to yourself with these changes. It's hard being in go mode for years and responding the messages probably takes a lot of time without much gain on your end.
2021-01-29 00:38:02 +0000 UTCDisputing a prerelease purchase...before release date....is there something worse than a Timmy? I mean that feels like a straight up Chad/Karen thing to do...ijs
2021-01-29 00:38:01 +0000 UTCYou the man Rudy!
2021-01-29 00:37:59 +0000 UTCThey hate us cuz they ain’us
Nick Vovk
2021-01-29 00:37:51 +0000 UTCthat's crazy that is happening to you!! Do You think you are being shorted as well! You never have and never will have a problem with me! In my Estimation you just have I guess too many super Timmy's!
2021-01-29 00:37:38 +0000 UTCSorry to hear Rudy!
2021-01-29 00:37:38 +0000 UTC95% of stuff i order from him shows up quick. People just don't read the entire post. I make the mistake sometimes with dates. I look over the posts again not message him 100 times. Crazy
michael j
2021-01-29 00:37:33 +0000 UTCThanks for everything Rudy, I’m newer, but I’m really loving everything so far. I’m sorry your having to deal with these issues. Thanks for the great deals and content.
Robert Hares
2021-01-29 00:37:31 +0000 UTCAll good Rudy, do what you gotta do. Love being a patron and have always appreciated the care and attention you put into this endeavor.
Christopher Walsh
2021-01-29 00:37:15 +0000 UTCAre you seriously surprised? We still have people who can't read a simple sale post about how to buy stuff!
Kevin Robinson
2021-01-29 00:37:14 +0000 UTCWait were supposed to buy things? Shit. I've just been supporting him because his down to earth investment advice.
2021-01-29 00:37:10 +0000 UTCCompletely understand Rudy. I’m just happy to support. We are in the zombie apocalypse right now with these crazy people but unfortunately these movies and tv shows have lead us to believe that you could actually spot the zombie. They all look like us. Lol
2021-01-29 00:37:08 +0000 UTC*queue. Also, anybody demanding tracking for an unreleased product should go chortle their own scrotes. It’s obvious Kaldheim hasn’t released yet, they should know better. I suggest increasing the chargeback you levy when people cancel orders like that. Many stores levy 15% restocking fees on all pre-release product. You should do the same.
2021-01-29 00:36:57 +0000 UTCThat is just plain dumb. The product js not even out wtf guyz.... sad day for taco land
2021-01-29 00:36:53 +0000 UTCDo what ya gotta do. Those who get blocked, it’s their loss long term. Makes more opportunities for those of us who wait for product we like and just support the videos. Keep ya head up!
2021-01-29 00:36:50 +0000 UTCRIP my DMs with rudy were always helpful and positive. Sad to see them go. Cant believe people can't read and understand. They need to go back to TCC and visit the Professor! Have him help them to understand that reading the posts explain the posts.
Alex Melo
2021-01-29 00:36:49 +0000 UTCHey man you got my full support. To be blunt about it, fuck the scammers. If people are signing up to the Patreon just to chargeback shit then they should be blacklisted to oblivion.
Drew
2021-01-29 00:36:43 +0000 UTCDamn, well... Thanks for all that you do for the community Rudy and continue to hold that GME!! =)

2021-01-29 00:36:23 +0000 UTCAppreciate ya Rudy, Timmies can be dumb sometimes
2021-01-29 00:36:16 +0000 UTCBet... they're pulling out of MTG and inputting into the stonks right now while that's poppin, lol.
2021-01-29 00:36:11 +0000 UTCI’m impressed you’ve been attempting to reply to everything you receive still. Hopefully these changes help you maintain this enterprise for everyone that’s here in good faith.
2021-01-29 00:35:56 +0000 UTCYou the man Ruby! It’s amazing the amount of comments on here during sales and what not that if people spent literally 10 seconds reading the posts it would answer 100% of their questions. I don’t blame you AT ALL. Surprised it took this long for you to do it!!
Will B
2021-01-29 00:35:56 +0000 UTCMaybe it's time to administer reading comprehension tests for all patrons.
2021-01-29 00:35:46 +0000 UTCHopefully the nevi's disk flushes out all the sewage Rudy! Appreciate ya!
2021-01-29 00:35:46 +0000 UTCYou’re crushing it Rudy the people who act like that don’t deserve the service you provide.
2021-01-29 00:35:39 +0000 UTCYou do what you have to, Rudy. Supporting you here in Southwest Florida
2021-01-29 00:35:37 +0000 UTCDefinitely understandable. Hope the paypal issues gets resolved.
Tyler Ennis
2021-01-29 00:35:31 +0000 UTCSucks that we won't be able to reach out and chat any more, but I understand how those bad apples ruin stuff for everybody else. People who hit chargeback before the product even hits the street should be banned for sheer stupidity; you don't need their money. Cheers good sir!
2021-01-29 00:35:29 +0000 UTCrudy isnt a scammer so ya'll messed up
2021-01-29 00:35:29 +0000 UTCI'm sorry some people can't be bothered to read Rudy. If that's the SOP for when people pull that shit, hopefully they'll weed themselves out
Cole Mason
2021-01-29 00:35:23 +0000 UTCGreat work Rudy! You deserve nothing but the best patrons
2021-01-29 00:35:21 +0000 UTCWell that's...kind of a huge pain. Guess some folks are a tad too impatient to apply any amount of logic.

2021-01-29 00:35:21 +0000 UTCGreat, now who will I send memes to?

Matthew Sutton
2021-01-29 00:35:03 +0000 UTCShould make all potential patrons write a 500 word essay on their love for floppy taco’s before they can be accepted
2021-01-29 00:35:02 +0000 UTCThat’s some real shady shit. At least this will open up spots for patrons that actually want to be here.
2021-01-29 00:34:59 +0000 UTCSorry this is happening Rudy. Hope these changes help you in the short and long term. Sally forth......
Scott Pysher

2021-01-29 00:34:57 +0000 UTCBut where’s my 2023 playmat Rudy? People are dumb, let them be dumb somewhere else.
john creasy
2021-01-29 00:34:53 +0000 UTCPeople are retarded and think because tracking is provided that you actually already tendered the package to USPS. Bummer to have to deal with those morons. Thanks for hooking me up with cheap magic and cool vids my dude

2021-01-29 00:34:45 +0000 UTCGotta do it. It’s the right choice.
Aaron
2021-01-29 00:34:43 +0000 UTCYou just need to hire a social networking person to respond for you ! Hahha
2021-01-29 00:34:43 +0000 UTCI wonder if peeps read the post saying what dates it would ship out on?
2021-01-29 00:34:40 +0000 UTCI'm a little sad on the no guaranteed responses but I understand the need so you can focus on everything else.
2021-01-29 00:34:36 +0000 UTCIt's cool Rudy. I'm basically here to support the video content and get a specialty box every now and again.
PKKite
2021-01-29 00:34:29 +0000 UTCSorry to hear it but at least you aren’t getting any new patrons.
