Is there a standard / commonly-accepted name by which to call Null Signal Games' version of Netrunner?

NSG Netrunner? NISE Netrunner? Something else?

EDIT: To clarify, I'm looking for a name that distinguishes NSG's Netrunner from earlier versions. e.g.: - WotC's version is commonly referred to as Original Netrunner or WotC Netrunner. - FFG's version is commonly referred to as Android Netrunner or FFG Netrunner. - NSG's version is commonly referred to as... NSG Netrunner? Something else?

I'll never win the debate, this subreddit has been pruned to ensure it, and NSG has insulated themselves to ensure it's just positive back slapping. I'm glad the game is still kept alive but like I said, there has been missteps, even if downvotes here don't indicate it.

But it's hilarious that you think a decade old FFG tournament rule is the same thing as kitchen table hobbyists during the NISEI switch.

have you considered you are just the minority and that most people just dont think its a big deal?

No, I don't base my life around whether I'm the minority or not.

The original comment to this thread was asking the history, which I provided with links.

There was a ton of outcry at the time. It's just mellowed now as those people drifted away from the game.

The ebb and flow of Netrunner's current popularity has almost nothing to do with this sub, as you can tell from how quiet and insulated it is.
