Something Interesting



Welcome! Here are the rules: Everyone writes one fact (something interesting or something stupid) and signs their name at the end of it. Add your fact at the end of the list for interesting or stupid depending on, well, if it's interesting or stupid. Note that you may only pick one fact.

2008-08-08 [Evolution X]: ...

2008-08-08 [manwe]: well then, [Linderel] show me where that rule "The most important rule of Elftown, after all, is 'Don't be an asshole'." is, and further, show me where >>i<< have been and "a$$hole" in requesting honesty, accuracy and some semblance of consistent and reasonable grammar, spelling and syntax in communications, and further, show me where admins are allowed to delete innocuous entries for no other reason that they felt like it at the time.... PLEASE  show some integrity of authority so that all KNOW that the rules are applied correctly....

further, unless stupidity and ignorance is overly and consistently blatant, i will desist in attacking severely poor grammar, spelling and syntax here....

will that be sufficient?

~ymmv....

2008-08-08 [Evolution X]: Now.... shhhhhhh. You're all being very rude to each other and lets face it, its getting annoying

2008-08-08 [Linderel]: If you wish to no longer receive updates about the page, click on the 'Stop watching this wiki-page' on the right-hand side there.

2008-08-08 [Chimes]: We've been through this... and gotten past it. :] Now everybody breathe...

2008-08-08 [Mrs Vicious.]: if youve got yoru name up on the actual wiki you will automaticaly be watching it.

2008-08-08 [Linderel]: Breathing is good. *nod nod*

2008-08-08 [manwe]: i was under the impression that the title of this wiki was "Something Interesting".....

let me guess.....
"Something Interesting" refers to some very few, and limited topics.... and NO one with a dissenting opinion, view or knowledge is allowed to present.....

does that summarize it?

2008-08-08 [Linderel]: Really, now? I didn't know that... must be one of the newer things.

2008-08-08 [Evolution X]: Can anyone just... BLOCK this guy from this wiki? He is just really annoying.

2008-08-08 [Mrs Vicious.]: i think so.. but im still gettign the little notises about it.... hmnnn lol btw im just egnoring him now.. (ish on bout manwe) oh and breathing is good.

2008-08-08 [manwe]: [Linderel] would be delighted to drop it if you would point out how and where and to whom i was rude... please.... educate me so that i will not, in the future, be rude to others in the same way.....

thank you for your educative insights!!!

~ymmv....

2008-08-08 [Linderel]: As far as I know, there's no way to actually block someone from a wiki, except with the various way of protecting it, like passwording or connecting with a forum... But as this was clearly meant to be a public page, that won't really do.
As for the second part, don't goad him.

2008-08-08 [Mrs Vicious.]: ive just put my name back up seen as it made no difference what so ever. Id liek to personally add "Bad spellers of the world, UNTIE!" (yes its on perpose)

2008-08-08 [Chimes]: I'm an idiot... it took me a moment to get that joke... >.<;

2008-08-08 [Mrs Vicious.]: hehe lol dont worry it takes every one a minuet. hehe. lol it rocks!

2008-08-08 [manwe]: open letter to [Linderel]:


it is my opinion that you are being foolish....
with regard to the wiki, and other areas, you are in a position to be a leader and to represent that which is the correct manner in which to represent the best of this place... unfortunately, you are not doing that.... you are expressing, exacerbating, perpetuating and encouraging the worst, in allowing a small group to drive an agenda to suppress a minor, dissenting opinion....

this is ONE MAJOR reason that i am distressed to find that younger people, who have little to no experience nor real "real world" skills, to be in a position of authority. i realize that you think you know what you are doing and that you are right, however, you need to study some history.... a 19th century philosopher, George Santayana, in his work: The Life of Reason, Volume 1, 1905, said "those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it."

i submit to you that you are not seeing the bigger picture regarding dissent and censorship, and, further, are condoning BOTH censorship and the suppression of dissenting opinion....

further, the points i made about grammar, spelling and syntax, and the commonality of a single, formal language to express concepts from 20+ different languages and cultures, in a manner that all can understand, clearly and count on in continuity and consistency, was "dead on" and, as someone supposedly interested in the betterment of the site, you SHOULD be (at least) SOMEWHAT supportive...

in point of fact.... if you were doing your job the way you SHOULD be, consistent with the written rules of this place, you would be SUPPORTING me, my dissent (not my opinions or reasoning, but my right to have them) and my rights to post them, rather than to excoriate me, publicly, to "score points" with the "twits" of the site....

still.....
you are 21....
it is a very real limitations....
i was once 21... and i knew EVERYthing.... just as you do....

too bad i had to grow up and learn the truth.....

~ymmv....

2008-08-08 [Maelthra]: This place was meant for fun, Manwe, so why don't you calm down a bit? If you don't like the way things are run here, you do have the right and the freedom to move on and find something "better" to do with your time.

2008-08-08 [manwe]: [Maelthra] what ever makes you think i am not calm, or that i am not having fun????? interesting that you would suggest that i leave.... why should i? the name of this PUBLIC wiki is "something interesting". are you suggesting that what i have posted is NOT interesting? or is it that it is NOT interesting to YOU, or others who do not care about the fact that posts can be censored and erased by unknown admins with not reason given.... or that idiots can perpetuate horrendous grammar, spelling and other heinous destructive tools of language to present absurd, uninformed and often ludicrous postings.... hmmmmm

perhaps you have a point... let me make YOU a counter offer.... if you do not like the conversation or if you find that it is not "something interesting".... why do YOU not leave, rather than to say that i should leave....

as what you define as "better to do with my time"... that would presuppose that you knew ANYthing about be... and you do not.... 

still.... i thank you for your suggestion... but unless i am prohibited (read CENSORED) from participating in this wiki, by someone in authority, then i have EVERY right, and will continue to exercise them, to disagree, agree, point out problems and inconsistencies and abuses, and otherwise express my opinions.... and i will continually "tilt at the windmills" of ignorance, stupidity, and blind obedience without reason, to idiocy.....

~ymmv....

2008-08-08 [Maelthra]: Wow. That is exactly what I was talking about. You have proven my point. Have a nice day Manwe. Aparently your idea of fun is being an asshole, congratulations, you have succeeded. Also, glad you are so full of your self that you feel you need to school us all, please continue.

2008-08-08 [manwe]: [Maelthra] (20 years old, from Beaumont, Texas, with NOTHING on her page but a few pictures....) the phrase you seek is  "quod erat demonstrandum".... still... your post did not qualify in that regard as i failed to see the point which was to be demonstrated.... still.... perhaps you can enlighten me (or anyone else, for that matter).... please.... (*_*)

ps: i like bob dylan... i have a few birds of my own... and we have a new pair of babie doves nesting on my outside lockers... hehheh i have great picts of the babies who are 2.5 days old and just opened their eyes today.....

~ymmv....

2008-08-08 [Maelthra]: The page remains as blank, seeing how I just came back to this place a few weeks ago. Left originally because of people like you that see fit to ruin everyone elses fun. Thanks for informing everyone on this site of my information, you saved everyone the few mouse clicks it would have taken to find out the information for themselves. What are you trying to prove? Your fight seems a little senseless. If you are trying to upset me, goodluck. Not going to happen any time soon. Did it ever occur to you that this is enjoyable to me? What else is there better to do while having to sit at a house and watch a family member who is on their deathbed than to watch someone like you get all riled up? It makes the down time, while the family member is sleeping, worth it.

2008-08-08 [Maelthra]: Bob is a rescue case, just like all of the other critters I have. I run a rescue mission, purely funded by myself.

2008-08-08 [manwe]: wow... non-sequitur
what in the hell does all that mean?
(i didn't say anything here that was private, did i???)

2008-08-08 [Maelthra]: You said nothing private that I know of, my life is not private and I have nothing to hide. And what part did you not understand? I will be glad to fill you in...

2008-08-08 [manwe]: [Maelthra] MOST impressive!! i wish someone would let ME rescue a bird like bob.. hehheh... it would be "something interesting" to know more about your "rescue mission" that you fund, yourself.... perhaps that might be a good way to change the topic of conversation here....

2008-08-08 [Maelthra]: Well, rescueing Bob came with a price. Somehow, no matter where I move to, people know that I take in all kinds of critters that need homes and they drop them off on my doorstep or somewhere near by where I can find them. Maybe they know that I can't turn away a face that needs a home. Not sure. The self funding is a little hard considering I spend more than 16 hours a day taking care of my grandmother, who is the one on her deathbed. Having a job, taking care of grandma, and taking care of all the critters is very time consuming. I usually only get to be online when grandma is sleeping. Though I would not have it any other way. Unless grandma was better.

2008-08-08 [Blood Raven]: [manwe], you say you are contributing something interesting to the wiki, but if you would've read the rules on the top of the page, you will notice that it states: "Everyone writes one fact (something interesting or something stupid) and signs their name at the end of it. Add your fact at the end of the list for interesting or stupid depending on, well, if it's interesting or stupid. Note that you may only pick one fact."

I see you have not done this. Worse yet, you are not even commenting on any of the above stated facts. And that is what the commenting box is for, making comments about their respective wiki page. You, however, seem to be commenting a lot and in mostly unconstructive ways. As soon as somebody says something about it, you make up an excuse as to why you have every right to be here, turning this comment box into some kind of debate.

In your house, you state that you are "interested in talking with and to people with something interesting to say, and who can express it in a form that i can understand, and that do NOT mistake my being nice to them as anything more than that. intelligence, humour and basic common sense, along with an equal exchange, is a minimum norm, for me. further, it would be a big "plus" if you have read (and understood) the rules and understood the basic premis of ElfTown."

Now first of all, this is not a page for debating. There are plenty of other wikis build to such an end, and this wiki and it's members are not one of them, seeing how the tone of this debate is anything but friendly. Oh yes, it's polite (and even that is diminishing in your last post), but it's not friendly. The people of this wiki simply aren't interested in some debate of wether or not you have the right to place the comments you placed.
Secondly, you state that it would be a big plus if people understood the rules of Elftown. May I remind you that the No. 1 rule of Elftown is "Don't be an asshole"? Please, take some time to think over that rule, and how you may work towards the goal that people will not come to regard you as an asshole.

That was all, thank you.

2008-08-08 [Mrs Vicious.]: so any of you guys eat anything intrestign today? lol you know what... cheese and peanut butter sandwiches are rather nice.

2008-08-08 [Evolution X]: I had a peanut butter and carrot jam sandwich... I bought the carrot jam in Malta. They have wierd jams over there.

2008-08-08 [Mrs Vicious.]: now thats an intrestign fact. i had some wierd jam while i was there. it wwas realy nice, theyve got good ice cream too.

2008-08-08 [Mrs Vicious.]: lol yeah? i had passionfruit ice cream while i was there, what part of Malta did you stay in?

2008-08-08 [Evolution X]: I went to Gozo, which is a tiny little island off the the side. About twenty miles by two miles...

2008-08-08 [Mrs Vicious.]: lol i know i whent swimming, well snorkling in gozo.. it rocked. i swam with dolphins too.

2008-08-08 [manwe]: [Blood Raven]: obviously you have not understood a single point.... in point of fact, i posted 4 times, 3 of which were according to the guidelines, and they were deleted with NO explanation nor a clue as to who deleted them. the 4th post was to protest this act and to question it... and it, too was deleted. AFTER all that, i began my current series of posts.

perhaps you should get your facts clear, before you run off at the keyboard....

as to interest, at least i have kept SOME attention focused on something of interest, at least 4 times, including 2 facts, this argument, and the subject of [Maelthra]'s situation... please... enlighten me/us.... other than your current post b(yes, i saw your name attached to the ammonia post), exactly HOW have YOU contributed anything interesting, here? (the stupid contribution is quite clear...)

~ymmv....

ps....

[Mrs Vicious.]: please explain the "word" intrestign for us?..

2008-08-08 [Evolution X]: oh for the love of (insert deity here) cant you drop this?

2008-08-08 [manwe]: hehheh i dropped it last night (my time) and when i looked in, again, this morning, i saw [Blood Raven]'s post, addressing me.... are you suggesting that i not reply?  oh my... i see....

2008-08-08 [Mrs Vicious.]: thats why I brought up ice cream. oi Manwe.. whats yoru favoret flavour ice cream? oh sorries bout that hehe my fingers work a bit fast and I get the letters mixed up when I type too fast. its supposed to be intresting. FYI I know it isnt an excuse but I am dislexic (has no idea on the spelling cos im crap at it anyways) and get letters mixed up quiet often.

2008-08-08 [Evolution X]: I like wierd flavour ice creams... I once had "egg" flavour in Italy.

2008-08-08 [Mrs Vicious.]: eww. ive had a vodca and blue rasberry one onece, it was called "smerf" hehe i wa sbright blue and it died your lips and tongue for three days.

2008-08-08 [manwe]: i would have to say my favourite flavous of ice cream is either jamoca fresh coffee or swiss almond vanilla (both by hagen daas (spelling?)) there is also a "french vanilla" that would be 3rd, after those two.... the thing about the french vanilla is that it has "egg" in it.... so it's not strange to me that italy would also have something similar...

2008-08-08 [Mrs Vicious.]: verry nice coice, though im not too keen on vanilla, i prefer fruity ice cream but still its a classic. not to keen on coffee eather but your intitled to your own faves.

2008-08-08 [Mrs Vicious.]: ;lol its like chocolate ice cream with cookie dough bits in it isnt it? im not too sure.

2008-08-08 [Sabbe Fhtagn]: its just vanila with chocolate bits shaped in the for of dinosaurs

2008-08-08 [Mrs Vicious.]: ah kk. lol sounds cool

2008-08-09 [manwe]: what IS it with you all!!!????  why can't you spell or use reasonable grammar!!!!!!!!!!!! damn it to hell!!!!!

2008-08-09 [Evolution X]: .................. DROP IT!

2008-08-09 [hopscotchnerd]: wat u meen, i spel fien. my gramer is graet

2008-08-09 [Artsy]: Ummm... [manwe]... In the English language, the first letter of a sentence is supposed to be capitalized, questions end in question marks, and 'you all' is actually just supposed to be 'you'.

2008-08-09 [Atayemi]: Living makes an awesome point. :) One question mark and one exclamation mark is enough, [manwe]. So you can't complain yourself really since you aren't using proper grammar either. If it's how they type and speak, let them be. It's not your problem, it's theirs. This is a comments box, they are bound to chat, text speak or not. So don't start an argument over something so small and unecessary which has nothing to do with you, please.

2008-08-09 [Artsy]: (Atay. I think there is another 'n' in 'unnecessary'.)

2008-08-09 [Atayemi]: Just goes to show that I make mistakes too. ;)

2008-08-09 [hopscotchnerd]: I'm going to side with [manwe] on this one, it does get annoying when you are all too lazy to spell things right

2008-08-09 [Artsy]: (There should be a period on the end of your sentence, [hopscotchnerd]. Also, your comma should be a period, 'it' should be capitalized, and you really don't need 'all' in that sentence.)

2008-08-09 [All_Most PUNK]: But nobody is forced to watch this wiki. If somebody finds it annoying, they can simply not read the comments, stop watching the wiki or just ignore it. It's a private wiki, after all.

2008-08-09 [Artsy]: ('But' is not necessary in the first sentence. It makes it a sentence fragment.)

2008-08-09 [Teufelsweib]: beh... my english isn't perfect either, but that's because it's not my mother tongue. as long as the point is clear and it's also clear that you're doing your best on writing proper english, it should be fine.
and I'm sure that that sentence is filled with grammar errors as well, don't bother nitpicking them out -_-

2008-08-09 [((lost))]: Surely correct grammar, punctuation and spelling doesn't really matter in comment boxes... Perhaps some people have nothing better to do than correct other peoples harmless chatter, rather than actually contributing something worthwhile elsewhere on Elftown...

2008-08-09 [hopscotchnerd]: First off, I'm talking about every one. Secondly its spelled comma not common. and finally, it doesn't need to be a period, its fine as a comma, because its the same clause.

2008-08-09 [hopscotchnerd]: and not watching the wiki wont help, its the same thing on every wiki and it just proves how our generation is doomed to a horrible end because we'll be too lazy to do something right, well all be too lazy to eat in no time at all

2008-08-09 [Chimes]: You're not doing it correctly, yourself. Don't lecture others unless you're practicing what you preach.
Also, I thought we'd gotten past the pointless arguments?

2008-08-09 [dunkler engel]: ^^

2008-08-09 [hopscotchnerd]: im not saying that grammar is that important, im saying that instead of saying 'u' take half a second to spell out the word

2008-08-09 [Chimes]: My other point still stands. I thought we'd gotten past the arguments. =_=;

2008-08-09 [Duke Devlin]: "00:08:44 [manwe]: what IS it with you all!!!???? why can't you spell or use reasonable grammar!!!!!!!!!!!! damn it to hell!!!!!"

As countless people have said before me, including [Linderel] (who should be shown respect), and [Chimes], please practise what you preach. You say that grammar and spelling is important, and yet you have yet to use a capital letter. Would that not fall into the problem you presented for people for whom 'English' is not the native language? Is it not true that many countries in the world use capital letters not only to emphasise, name places and people, but to distinguish between word uses? That may sound excessive - and I apologise for 'joining in' at this late stage (and of course undoubtedly dredging up a useless argument), but I felt it needed to be said. Please understand that nobody else has issues with mispellings, or grammatical errors - it appears to be only you who cannot decipher a simple mistake. Of course the thing about spelling will apply to [hopscotchnerd] as well - who I believe to be a rather pleasant individual under other circumstances - I have encountered them once or twice, I am sure.
On another note - I too am particular about grammar and spelling, but I am not making it a punishable offence to have 'issues' putting together the written word. ;)

2008-08-09 [Evolution X]: I like custard pies... and Okami...

2008-08-09 [Duke Devlin]: What's Okami, [Evolution X]? :)

2008-08-09 [Evolution X]: Okami is a video game, I recently got it on the Wii console. Think Legend of Zelda type game play but with more spiritual and caligraphy aspects than swords and armour...
Also, call me Evo.

2008-08-09 [Artsy]: 'Evo' is an abbreviation used by bulimics who keep a food diary and use enemas (which use the term 'evacuate'). <img:stuff/dand-gif.gif>

2008-08-09 [Evolution X]: ................................................... Im am not, and I shall hopefully never have to have an enema...

2008-08-09 [hopscotchnerd]: *guns you all down with a chain gun*hahahahahahahahahaha *suffocates from laughing sadistically so much*
