Ok, attention spammers, poetic spam is still spam. If you put WoWGold in every other sentence, it is even more spam. People will not buy MMORPG crap if they're smart, and if they're not, they don't use our wiki, and we don't give about your poetry.

  On the GHWiki, we've been getting a lot of spam recently. So, here's a little note to spammers: We don't care about Guild War Gold's meaningful nature. Quite frankly, a wiki is not a blogging site. If you wanna talk about the Olympiad Panda Bears, do it on a blog site, not on a sci-fi wiki. While the articles you write may not be too terrible, and may be worthy of being published in some very extreme cases, it's a site with a goal of detailing a video game, not your personal poetry or wri...

 What phobias do you have? I fall victim to a blend of phobias, none of which are terribly pleasant (fortunately, nor fairly common, save nyctophobia). Tell me if I'm misclassifing any of these. Also, none of them affect me in a virtual environment. Acrophobia- Fear of heights. 12 feet is about how much it takes to trigger it. I will stay far away from any edges that could cause falling (even railing that doesn't go up to my chest). Aviophobia- Fear of flying. Not too bad, but I avoid...

I'm opening up the Video Game Classification Wiki to the public (which means no account needed). What you can do is make an account and a page with your name (real or fake), then put little sections to duel. If it gets off well enough, I may make a public wiki simply for the purpose of fighting with words. Basically it's a way to relieve stress and keep comments from piling up too quickly on poor people's articles (sorry, KFC). Any comments or ideas are appreciated. I'll see you there (you guys ...

    Today I will be looking at why media franchises fail.     I will give an example of a good franchise with a bad game that failed, and a good franchise with a good game that failed nonetheless, and how they could have been saved.     Franchise 1: Galidor     Galidor has a pretty neat concept. Change forms from one to another and become a wonderful fighter. It was sponsored by Lego, but it had a fairly decent concept. It had ...

    GearHead 2 .502 Released     GearHead 2 has a new version released on its Sourceforge page . Go try it. It's a blast. It adds depth to the gameplay, both ASCII and SDL.     Nevermind that I'm an admin on the wiki, it's a good game, simple to learn, hard to master. Try GH1 first, though, unless you want pure random, because GH2 isn't done yet!     Hulu.com Site Review    Hulu is a wonderful video service t...

    Just How Bad Is Cheating In Video Games?    Now, I'm a "pro" gamer. In so much as I'm probably in the better 25%. Ispend too much time at it, sure, but I am fairly decent. Sure I'm justbelow the Great Wall of Ownage, meaning that there are players who willdestroy me repeatedly (most Tribes players and some Tremulous playersfall into the upper category). However, I do pretty well, especially inMMO's. However, occasionally one will find the Dretch who lags so bad...

    Here's wishing a happy Mother's Day to everyone here. No Daily Feature today, I'm too busy between church and Morrowind. Funny, huh?     Anyways, happy Mother's Day! Don't eat too much like I just did!       Darn relatives always trying to kill me by feeding me.

    On Raytracing        Raytracing refers to the process of using a computerto render an image, sometimes photorealistic, from an array of things.Raytracing is a very simple task, but eats up a fair deal of computerpower. It doesn't requre a terribly great computer, though, since itmerely runs lots of commands. This allows a raytracing engine to renderawesome sights on pretty much any computer. I'd recommend it for allpeople who need an image. &...

    Why is being a gamer bad?                       It makes me sad when there isdiscrimination against the innocent.    Now, I may be quoting out of context here, but I have been told that asa gamer I have no place on JU, and I should crawl back into the sameold gaming sites I frequent. I believe that there is nothing wrong withbeing a gamer, it is simply a part of my identi...

    Welcome to my first Daily Features article. I'll start off by writing an article describing daily features.     On Daily Features    Anyways, now that I have your attention, I will describe dailyfeatures. Daily features are a compilation of three or more articles.Three types of articles are considered for a Daily Feature. The firstis an opinion article. Basically it's the "On" article I'm fond ofwriting. Generally two paragraphs, with an aim f...

    Tolerance is giving a second chance. Tolerance is not discriminating against others due to social group, social status, race, age, gender, or intellect. Tolerance is giving an open assessment. Tolerance is not liking everyone you know. Tolerance is giving everyone equal opportunity. Tolerance is not looking down upon others for any reason.     So, how tolerant are you? People level accusations of intolerance against the religious all the time, but my question...

    I come here to make friends and share my opinions. Sure I may do it in a frowned upon manner, but by the time I really learn it's frowned upon, I'm already boycotted. Articles are written against me. People attack me behind my back. I've had it. People misuse my words. People accuse me. People take an article not written with an entirely serious view as being scripturally sound. I've been backstabbed. You are too weak to take me on if I know about you, so you insist on attacki...

    Words have a major power. Studies show that a negative spoken word will linger for seventy two hours in a person's mind, and requires ten positive words to repair the damage it caused before that period is out.     Words have an immense amount of power, and they can be used for hurting or for healing. In the Bible, words are referenced as sparks that can ignite a forest. Just as a word can cause immense damage, words can be used to repair broken lives. &nb...
