I am Uraby210, and I hereby state that I 100% approve of the humurous Trivia section added earlier today. No more overzealous cleaning-up, please. Uraby210 22:15, January 27, 2011 (UTC)


Uraby, I already told Munjeej and I'm going to tell you: the fictional background story-whatever crap needs to be kept in its own section. It sure as hell isn't trivia. CSD 22:54, January 27, 2011 (UTC)

I'm perfectly aware of what you said to Munjeej, and I'm not sure what you mean by "keeping it in its own section". It was in its own section, and it is trivia about the show...it may be written from a fictional standpoint, but it's still "metafact", or fictional fact, as you would find on any other wiki that deals with fictional source material (as do all Abridged Serieses). Furthermore, will it really cause the total and utter destruction of the Internet if this stuff stays on the page? It's insightful. It's metatextual. It's not hurting anyone. In fact, it probably elicited an amused chuckle from those few who got to read it before you plunged in with your eager backspace key, as Munjeej called it and rightly so. And in the end, as abridgers, isn't that what we're all in this for?

Well, isn't it?Uraby210 23:50, January 27, 2011 (UTC)

No. It was all really dumb if I'm honest, but then I was only eager to delete it because it looked more like vandalism than anything. And by separate section, I mean do this: ==Title==. Besides, you more than anyone should be aware that almost nobody watches your series; very few even know about this wiki. You and I are likely the only people to view your wiki page, but I do it to make sure irrelevant, unnecessary and otherwise inappropriate crap goes up because I seem to be the only guy with any remote responsibility or common sense around here.

You know what, since you guys are doing this for PR, here's a suggestion on something else you can do that will actually have a result: make better videos. Your series has actually gotten worse since I reviewed it, and you seem to take only one or two weeks to put each episode together. Get feedback, network a little bit, and actually make a series people are going to give a damn about, cause so far you guys are the only ones who do. Pretending to be Gorillaz isn't going to help, and it's a big waste of your time and effort. CSD 00:52, January 28, 2011 (UTC)

Die, smug bastard, you have no place in this Wiki.

Your words are as empty as your soul! This Wiki ill-needs an editor such as you!

But seriously, CSD we have both tried to contact you with friendliness and respect and have recieved nothing but childish abuse, bashing of the things we do online and general snarkiness. What have you even done to warrant carrying yourself with this attitude? I've never heard of you. So I guess nothing.

You think nobody cares about the show? We've been getting 1-4 subbers every day since our counter-claims went through, totalling 70 people so far. Go ahead and scoff if you like, because you know as well as I do that everyone has to start somewhere.

And so what if we want to make some kind of amusing not-real-but-who-cares backstory for the people involved and for the benefit of the fans? It adds flavour and actually brings something new to this frankly stale genre. It's people like you, holding back new concepts and bringing people down for them, who are going to kill this genre with your stubbornness.

There's no need to be acting like a prick. Just take a few steps down from your ivory tower and leave us alone for the time being. You are not some kind of moderator, you are not an admin, you are just another guy with an angry bone to pick with the rest of the world.

I'm going to issue you a final warning. If you continue to pursue this path of jackanapery, I will accept no responsibility for what will transpire. There's no need for it to come to that. I have been reasonable up until now, but if you want to escalate what really doesn't need to be escalated, then I'm not stopping you. Just take a few minutes first to wonder to yourself 'Is the Internet really worth getting this frustrated over?' and then move on to 'Is this really the right thing to do?'

Thankyou, and have a pleasant tomorrow.

Well said that man. Uraby210 13:08, January 28, 2011 (UTC)


I'm gone for a while and this is what happens? Endar Ren 14:26, January 30, 2011 (UTC)


First of all, CSD is right, the fictional background stuff should be in a section of it's own. You could call it something like "More Trivia" or something, but it should be its own section.

Secondly, I am disappointed about how this turned into a childish argument. The talk page is not a place to insult users or moderators. It is for constructive criticisms. And the article itself certainly should not be used to escalate the situation.

Finally, I would like both CSD and Uraby210 to apologize to each other for this mess.
