Methinks that was a joke.

All three points were jokes, actually. Guess I'm bad at this humor thing. ... Any online class for joke writing out there?

Ifrit: yes, it's called keeping in constant IM/PM contact with other board members, so you give off the impression of being psychic, or at least always knowing context.

For example, this morning, while murphie and I were fighting, we were secretly discussing the best way to make BBQ look like an idiot via highly complex and predetermined codes in the nature of a conversation about Calvin and Hobbes.

Re: Introducing the BG-Wiki

Substitute Sev for BBQ, and "highly complex and predetermined codes" with "hang himself with his own rope", and it's more accurate.

Methinks that was a joke.

I've never heard of those, so you have to excuse me for missing it.

Re: Introducing the BG-Wiki

Well you have to admit, our codes were a little vague.

I mean really Murphie, this is just like the noodle incident, and once again it's ALL YOUR FAULT.

Re: Introducing the BG-Wiki

I'm used to it.

Amele: And please, point out where I ever complained.

implicit in the tone of your initial responses? unless you've been trying for sarcasm this whole time

Amele: then please learn to read.

First post:

Have to wonder how long it will take BG to catch up to FFXIclopedia... and how much of the content will be copied.

If it isn't clear there that the only thing I have is interest in how it will go, then you need to take off the tin foil hat.

Re: Introducing the BG-Wiki

It was good to make the annoucement they did on the front page. If it's genuine that they're attempting to shead themselves of the 'elitist' approach they have to other players in the game, then I'm more than willing to give them the shot that their due.

As far as the Wiki, the PLAYER BASE, which is the true goal for every wiki, only stands to benefit. The competition means that FFXIcyclo, Alla, and even BG itself will all be pressed to provide the best demonstration, information, and service possible.

That sort of situation can only bring smiles to players' faces.

Side with witch ever 'group' you want. I personally don't hide my avoiding the BG community and have a personal distrust of Taj especially, but that doesn't mean I will turn down a good thing when I see it, nor give BG the chance it's asking for.

Congratulations to all the new Wiki Moderators on both BG and Alla, and good luck.

hyrist: competition doesn't really work in open source stuff, though.

Re: Introducing the BG-Wiki

Hi.

Is there enough bitching in this thread worthy of moderation?

I ask because i'm not reading this many pages to figure that out and i dont see any bannable offenses on the latest entries, but still some people seem to be ticked by the existance of this thread.

I'd just like to (not have to) say this: please dont turn our dear FFXIO into one of those other less than pleasant communities out there...

Please? Can we have a happy family environment just on this website here, for once? just here..? for puppies and kittie cats and bunnies and sugary treats and laughing childrens? K~?

TY!

You many now proceeds:

From that post, I was reminded of this cat:

Re: Introducing the BG-Wiki

Yeah, I tried for a cute post, but I made myself a little ill. Thanks for stopping by, Balfree.

Re: Introducing the BG-Wiki

It's all about the bunnies.


Edit > /comfort Murphie

It was a good warm&fuzzy post... yeah it scared me too.

eh; the first post *is* pretty neutral, continuing with three more after where you continue to iterate 'copyright violation' 'you can't police everything' etc. makes it look more like you're just hoping for popcorn drama - although you're right - you're not actually stating that you think it'll be rife with copyright violation, just taking a definitely pessimistic viewpoint of public works in general.

my mistake.

fixed.
