So Im not the only one who has a massive slowdown when participating in the huge pvp battles for which the game was intended? Even more so now that they prettied up the morale skills effects..... using raze is like freezing time when more than 2 other player characters are in the sceen...

 

I admit I was unaware of Threshhold before this article, as well as the "situation" at Wikipedia. I think that this whole shindig is indicative of the same crap one sees all over the net whenever individuals (hereto referred to as in-Duh-viduals) are granted creative liscense. When acclaim-deprived in-Duh-viduals see the opportunity to have people see and acknowledge their "work" they jump on it. Without any real check and balance system this often gets out of hand, as you can see. Wikipedia is a user based database that gives these cretins just that opportunity. I like the idea stated in the first article of having an increased paid staff that actually has final say over edits. This would help to prevent abuse of "power" (quotes used because its not as if Wikipedia really affects anyone's life in any real, tangible way, other than the amount of time spent contributing only to have your submissions lorded over by unqualified, egotistical in-Duh-viduals) by actually giving motivation to adhere to the rules set forth by Wikipedia. When you have a closed circle of Good ol' Boys jockeying for "power" without any reason to follow the rules it gets messy.
            In conclusion, Wikipedia should really take a look at its administration policies to prevent another debaucle like this. "Obscure" is a relative term. Any article viewed by ANYONE should be considered valuable and relevant, barring of course material that is derogatory or otherwise offensive. Even offensive material can be presented in a way that is still valid and informative, because "offensive" is another one of those pesky relative terms. Bottom line: Just because you dont care about something doesnt mean there arent many out there that do. Giving the power to censor material deemed "irrelevant" or "overly obscure" to a few individuals impedes upon the very fundamental principles Wikipedia is supposed to represent.   

 

Lets hope they fix the framerate murdering morale skills as well...

 

On Dark Crag its a bit different. Seems we Destro are a bit unorganized pre-T4. I *LOVE* Temple of Isha but 70% of the time you just see a random gaggle of Destro run to the flank and a random group through the front, with all order going one way or the other. Some days are better than others, but id say that we get steamrolled 60% of the time, no matter the scenario. Maybe im just unlucky...

 

Overall, good ideas, but you should be punished for even suggesting an increase in rez time...
