What do you think people? Who is with me? Is Hearthpwn the best forum ever?
I know people here aren't perfect, but in general, this is a very friendly forum visited by Hearthstone players all around the world, and many of its users are incredible polite, smart and wise. Ok, ok, that is what I think of course, and some of you probably don't share the same opinion, but as a user who has been on this forum for around two years and a half, I just can't help to love it and its community.
It's true that during these years I have received many insults (usually from unrespectful people), but also, a lot of love from many users, and that's what really matters people, your love. :)
Thank you ladies and gentlemen for being so awesome, you are the best!!! :)
Well, hopefully I don't get in trouble for this but ..... what the heck.
Let me start by mentioning that I am a former moderator for Wowhead. So I know just how hard being a mod for a gaming community is. It is like having a full time job that you don't get paid for, and rarely does anyone contact you to tell you how great of a job you are doing.
But, sometimes constructive criticism can be a good thing.
The Hearthpwn community can be beyond toxic. In my humble opinion, I think the mods should start cracking down on that toxicity. People can agree to disagree, but they need to be able to do it without insults. Far too often, things get pretty damn personal here. When that happens, clip the post(s), and let those involved have a day or two to think about it. I think a lot of people here are way to comfortable with just unloading on another member.

Are you serious? This is the softest forum I’ve ever been on. I got so many senseless warnings when I first started here. Simple things like “negative giffing”.
I don’t get why people take the internet so personal/serious.

It’ll be the best when I can use the copy deck button on my iPad and not have to mess with the deck string bs. Every other site seems to work fine there but this one.
Excellent HS forum imo. I used to be a regular on mmo-champion, eventually fully migrating from the predominant WoW section (since it was mostly dedicated to WoW) and kept to the small HS sub-forum after finally quiting WoW.
There I quickly ran into some of the people that would get hostile there, often for no logical reason. Unfortunately I decided to "fight toxic with toxic" and just met snark with snark there. Wasn't in the attitude to let Randomdude123 stroke their ego and dominate a good part of the threads without putting up some opposition right back.
After making the move to Hearthpwn I haven't looked back and don't feel the need to waste my time being a forum warrior in order to keep my foot in a HS community I enjoy.
This forum is worth being a part of and definitely better than what is out there. No regrets.
If there is one thing I'm glad for, is the lack of downvotes for threads. Prevents Reddit-style circlejerks and other such BS.

I have been on forums where even the moderators attack people and even swear up a storm. Just look at the cancer that goes on at smogon. Its nothing to do with being soft, its to do with being able to share an opinion on the internet and being civilized about it. You don't need to swear up a storm in order to have a decent discussion. Also this site is very good when it comes to updating news and at least I am sure that the moderators here are not 14 year old kids.

Extremely easy to navigate with simple and easy to use card/deck databases. 10/10
Best Hearthstone forum that's for sure!
way better than official forums which is full of toxicity and they removed the class boards which were the only places with good discussions.

It would be better if the edit post feature worked
Best Hearthstone forum for sure :D
Top deck is cheat
Hearthpwn is my source for Hearthstone information. It keeps me up-to-date everyday.

Otherwise I’m here all the time

I don't know whether Hearthpwn is the best forum in the world or not, but it is certainly the best forum in our hearts!

It has a light side and a dark side.
Free to try and find a game, dealing cards for sorrow, cards for pain.
HAHAHA not even close - just check HS Reddit - way more informative and literally never experienced toxic banter before like here.
