I still think most of you are missing the point. It's not the article that's the problem, and almost no one wants to change Ron Burgandy's words. He's a smart guy and a good writer. The issue is that that's the article that has historical status. This is a game and it's not like this is supposed to be a history textbook, but that's what the wiki should aspire to when it records the official history of UD. Blackmore as an event is historical. The article as it is is a good article. But not a good historical article because it records one man's history and not what actually happened. Actually, I think we all get the point, and while we may privately agree with y'all in some respects (like, "Yah, this article bashes dem RRF peeps too much"), several factors make us not give a feth anymore.
For one thing, Jorm set this whole thing up as Zombie Players vs. Survivor Players instead of Rational People vs. Fools Who Don't Understand History. No offense to him, but I think even Sonny could've been more diplomatic.
Moving along, the timing is random. And how all dem RRF peeps voted while nobody else did was weird too. If they really wanted to do this right, they should have put up a thread here stating their concerns before starting this.
So yeah, they might be right, but they are wrong in how they did it. Sorry, RRF.
