    Then stay out of this thread and the Wiki. Not sure what the problem, but this is a good forum without flaming etc. If you want to stay on this forum, calm down and stop making these posts.

    Unfortunately, ValemanGold has been banned. Now he is using multiple accounts to try to deface the wiki. Not sure what brought this on.

    What he added and deleted will stay deleted. A few pages may need to be locked or a usergroup will need to be created to edit the Wiki if this continues.

    However, this event continues:).

    Oh, your an alt of Valemangold, aren't you? I'd check, but since he's banned I can't see his IP.

    You and your alt, Geforce9400Gt, have both vandilized Gameogre,
    and I am reverting all deletions by you. Posting to the wiki means you are giving up your rights to any work on it, I'll create a license page soon, but you still give up all rights when you post.

    I am reverting all vandilisim. I have PMed ogreman about you and your multiple alts I have found from an IP search.

    I am also putting the wiki contents under the same copyright license as wikipedia. Setting it up right now.

    EDIT: Done, once ogreman locks it we will be good to go. Read the page Copyright Info for more information.
    I changed the wording so it applies to ANY AND ALL works on the wiki. Any works already done also apply, as the wiki is owned by ogreman.

    We take vandilism pretty seriously here, as most forums do. Please don't ruin everyone elses experience on the forum just because you are in a bad mood.

    Hmmm...it seems that at least one of Valemangold's works is vandilism. Pages may have to be deleted, unfortunately.

    Sorry to any users who have worked on the deleted pages. I'm pretty sure we will be allowing you to keep your points (unless you were the plagerizer in the first place).

    Any pages I find as very similar to other sites will be soft-deleted until I can get input from the admin, at which point full deletion and such will occur.

    I am doing this from random selections in the pages, I don't have time to check every sentence. If anyone else finds any offenders, please PM me or an admin.

    _______________________________________________________________
    Here is a list of pages that I have deemed unoriginal. It will be updated whenever I find more:

    Offender - Valemangold
    SoldierFront
    Quake III Arena
    Knight Online
    Dragonica Online
    _______________________________________________________________
    Safe pages (found to be original):
    Tales Runner
    Diablo II: LOD - I am kinda iffy about this one...I'll let it stay
    Warcraft III: ROC
    Splashfighters
    Doom II
    Gunbound WC International - again, parts of it's description came up, but it is mostly fine.

    Woah, what happened? I get the gist that Valemangold went crazy, made multiple accounts to spam this thread and the wiki, but it looks like you've sorted him out.

    Hmm, I see you've made it so that only moderators can edit the Main page...

    Ogreman must have done that, but I think it is necessary, with what happened.

    See the thread titled "Problem"... for more details...he made it, so we used it to discuss what happened :D

    Although nobody else should come here and add content and then ask to remove it, everything in the wiki from this person needs to be deleted.

    The good news is that the Wiki itself was able to handle this due to the post system. All that was needed to do was deleting the post that defaced the Wiki. That said, we just need to move on from this:).

    Yeah, tonight I'll delete any data he has written, and revert it to the last thing not by him on pages he didn't start.

    Gah, this stinks, but I'm glad I don't have to manually fix all of them now.

    Actually, I have looked at it.

    The page was deleted, and I sent the writer a PM.

    This was what it said:
