Single video game???

Whats with the plethora of WoW comics? Im quite sick of WoW and graduated to better games now. Please try to do something else, WoW is for immature kiddies and not everyone who read your comics are 12 years old.

So you honestly think all 11 million World of Warcraft players are immature and 12 years old? Seriously, grow up, and learn to sign your posts, please. 78.70.249.253 (talk) 21:31, 30 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

NPOV

The following section

Jack Thompson Controversy- GU Comics has, along with many other webcomics, on many occassions taken on anti-videogame campaigner and lawyer Jack Thompson through a combination of parodies in several comics, and raising awareness within the gaming community of the activities of Mr. Thompson.

seems to lack a NPOV concerning Jack Thompson. While I personally hold no love for the guy, the phrase "raising awareness" has a POV feel to it. To almost seems akin to "raising awareness" for HIV/AIDS or the like. Mikemill 22:43, 28 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I changed it to say

GU Comics has, along with many other webcomics, on several occasions taken on lawyer Jack Thompson, known for his activism against violent video games, through a combination of parodies in several comics, and letting the gaming community know about the activities of Mr. Thompson.

I hope this is better. Minirogue 00:25, 1 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

That works. I am not used to writing in an NPOV style, too against my nature I guess, so no worries--Breandán 02:05, 1 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Recommend monitoring for vandalism, NPOV statements as to the person WHearn, if source-able should be made into a sub of the article. However they need to meet the criteria worth being part of wikipedia. wageit

Vandal Edits

This issue, for intents and purposes has been "resolved". If you would like to discuss it futher please use another form of communication to address it with me personally. Whearn 17:43, 24 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Uhh...I'm not too sure since I am still kind of a noob at the whole Wikipedia thing, but I'm not sure you are supposed to delete an entire talk topic like that...but I have no problem with it personally. Just letting you know in case you get scolded by someone more experienced or something. Minirogue 19:28, 24 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

as the person who was subject to derogatory remarks from my supposed friend regarding myself being vapid etc and was extremlley annoyed by the whole incident with my half wit of a flatmate to the degree I have now left the GU site where i have been happy for years I am quite pleased he has removed this minirogue so no issues from the other adult side of the conversation.

If this is viewed by a moderator and they are worried the other parties are annoyed let me add that I am quite pleased that this has been taken down.

As W Hearn is the owner of the GU site and I was the party who had been "possibly" implicated for the half wit who lives in the same houses actions I am quite happy this has been taken down and have no issues.82.30.252.45 20:43, 24 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

-Breandán unlike you i believe people have a right to voice the truth.
-Unlike you im not some bush cencorship clone.
-Unlike you I would not remove someones comments and brand it as vandalism simply because I do not agree.
-Unlike you I would not dream of simply calling someone a vandal and deleting there content due to it differing from my view.

-Woody does run his forums with no care for others opinion or allow a two way discussion, he does run it akin to a dictatorship and he can be inflammatory and agressive.
+Hello fellow Wikipedians,
-While I respect him as an artist and thereby left the artwork sections alone you have basically removed my rights to comment in a critiscism section, there is that again "critism section".
-Not glorification section, I did not post this in the general information part or the other areas info etc.
-I ensured it was in the critisicm section, if i was a vandal it would have been in every section.

-Well that is all fine and dandy, and I believe your right to your opinion, however you can voice it somewhere else. One of the things I like about wikipedia is the unbiased neutrality of the articles. If you have a problem with someone, and their idea of censorship, that is your problem, not ours. I also am not a huge fan of censorship, but if you don't like how a forum is run, then leave it and go elsewhere, but not here. [[User:Minirogue|Minirogue]] 21:03, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
