They are no sorry. The spammed my inbox as soon as the rules was updated and they were told not too. Even the apology is just way to spam.

My only comment on the AI discussion is that I'm against it on principle and if you use it for writing and art, it's not my business but I'll opt to not give support instead. Wish it was banned in toto but we've had that discussion ad nauseum.

Dude you literally responded to my post about the rules update. Please stop harassing Juice with responses and @'s or we can give you a little break from the forum. I've tried to do this discretely through DMs but you don't seem to be taking a hint.

I like that this started a real conversation because AI is such a hot topic everywhere right now, especially online. I always enjoy seeing where people stand on it. I’m also glad the discussion stayed civil because topics like this can spiral out of control pretty fast, and thankfully, that didn’t happen here.

I mentioned in my initial post that I’m currently a stay at home dad and a full time college student. What really amuses me is that I take online courses to save on gas, and every week, professors post discussion questions where a crazy amount of students use AI for their answers. Then other students reply to those AI posts with more AI generated responses. At that point, it feels like I am watching AI communicate with AI, which honestly blows my mind, and always gets a laugh, but what is kinda wild is that those same students get 100 on the discussion. So what do I know? lol

What’s even crazier is that my university seemed to have accepted that AI is here to stay. I had one professor actually require us to use ChatGPT to check our work, then post the entire conversation we had with AI. So we could explain the changes we made to our projects. That was wild to me, cause my community college was very strict against Ai, but this universtiy isn't. It honestly makes no sense.

After being in college for the past three years, I can usually spot AI writing pretty easily because almost everyone uses it at this point. I probably have a different perspective on AI than some people, but I do appreciate when people are transparent about using it. In college, we’re expected to source AI generated material the same way we source other information, and honestly that just feels like part of living in a tech driven world in 2026.

I’ll never hate on someone for using anything that make their hobby more enjoyable. I’m pretty laid back about it overall. I’ve used AI myself, mostly for those throwaway tag matches or random singles matches that every fantasy booker hates to write, but has to put together but doesn’t really want to spend time writing. Usually, I’ll type out the big spots or moments I want, then let AI handle some of the filler. Sometimes it works really well, but it definitely needs a lot of direction because it misses just as often as it hits. Half the time, I end up thinking I could’ve written the whole thing faster myself, but that’s just how it goes.

One thing I absolutely do enjoy using AI for is throwing curveballs into my booking, or writing press releases for me, or like a Wrestling Observer type thing, but sometimes I like the graphics it makes, but sometimes I can't stand the way it makes some things look like titles, people, and things like that. I guess it's just one of those things. Take the good with the bad.

Thats the main thing, Do what you enjoy doing and other people can do them.

Whatever format, style, company, time frame or wrestlers a writer uses is going to turn off someone and (hopefully) others will enjoy it. A common piece of wisdom I've seen used in sections like this over the years is- "You should be writing for your own enjoyment and not worry about comments". Or at least something along those lines. By that logic, if using AI helps you enjoy your hobby; do it.

Hey Y'all I was just wondering if I could get some opinions ?

I am working on something long term, not sure when I will be posting it, anyways the question I wanted to ask.
Is how old would you suggest is too old to be a figure head of a company? I have been thinking like the cut off point atm is about forty five?

I have the roster size, championships and events all worked out.


Thanks in advance

Hey Y'all apologies on the delay of my Royal Rumble ppv, I only just realized that writing two rumbles takes a looooooooooong time.

PS: If all goes to plan it should be up this week at some point.
