No, it started the moment we started paying people for their opinions and then treating those opinions as gospel.
Actually, the opinions were never completely treated as gospel, because most of the card "deserved a better opinion" according to their sellers.
So even though nobody ever seemed to get an opinion as good as they deserved (by definition a bad opinion), they still continued paying for them.
