one apple? the question was asked why it was needed, if it was the same info on the pages of CC, just copy and pasted. who benefited from the clicks being driven away from CC? and what was the point in directing members to an offsite wikia that had the same info as the site? did someone get something for those clicks? made no sense. we are trying to retain members here, not send them to another site to look up info that is available right here. for instance, someone asked about game types and were directed, by a community volunteer, to that offsite website, which he copy/pasted together. why not direct them to the page here on CC where they copy and pasted the info for the wikia? just made no sense... made a valid argument for it, and help people understand. don't take your ball and go home...-Jn

If you don't like it, don't go there. No need to criticize someone's work Owen.

You scared off one of the hardest working volunteers to hit the team. You've spent so much time complaining about what's not being done to realize that you're the reason nothing gets done- waauw isn't the first to leave for reasons related to community criticism and unfortunately he won't be the last.
Keep in mind that there is a REAL PERSON on the other end of the computer, and if you haven't had experiences with real people before, let me tell ya something- unconditional positive regard will get you pretty far in life. Try it sometime.
JBlombier wrote:The questions you ask are valid, I won't deny that (every question is valid, of course). It's just that the way you express your feelings on the matter, can come across quite hurtful on occasion. In this particular case, you've made your opinion on the wiki very clear. That's okay, not everyone has to like it. But it got to the point where criticism came close to bullying. And I'm positive that you also think that bullying is not okay, so I just wanted to point out that you did do that, but probably unintentionally.
Owen, you're kind of a weird guy (in the good sense of the word) with a straight up persona, I'm absolutely sure about that, because I've seen that time and time again on this forum. Yet, I do believe that you went a little too far this time. If your goal really is to help CC, the means to accomplish that are definitely not to scare away a mod (junior mint, as you'd probably like to add, lol) that genuinely wants to make this site better. Even if the way he does it, doesn't suit you.
As for who benefited... We can be sure that no one has quit CC, because the wiki wasn't good enough. The wiki is just an extra. So even if it sucks donkey balls, it really doesn't matter. And if someone got directed from this site to the wiki, what harm does that do? We live in a digital age, people can find their way on the internet. An extra browser-tab with extra information about CC won't hurt the CC-experience. This is just my opinion, of course.
Anyway, my point is that if we want CC to succeed in 2016 and further, it's not beneficial to burn down the people that put serious time in this site voluntarily.

We were also using the wiki as the basis for the Strategy Revamp so we didn't spam GD with over 200 threads

owenshooter wrote:p.s.-andy, still waiting on an answer how this benefited the site... have yet to hear how a copy/pasted version of CC info was beneficial. how sending members from the forums to this site, was beneficial. not an answer yet. even better, there were multiple forum regulars in the thread asking the same, but i am somehow the focal point of this witch hunt. things never change.
other than bogus six month bans, i agree... other than most of my predictions being valid and coming true concerning the changes you brought about, i agree... other than that, ehhh...-Jésus noir
