Re: Everipeidia blockchain migration

[...] Really? This is how low you're willing to stoop? Thanks site exists so serious critics can be divorced from the moronic ramblings of illiterate idiots like ATG. So you choose to become his clone? Sad. Dysklyver should not have to a read to such ignorant reviews of his work. And Everipedia des...

Re: Everipeidia blockchain migration

No explanation as to why anyone should want to read it, I note. Seems to be a recurring pattern when Ponzipedia is concerned.

Re: Eric Corbett

Wikipedia is a addictive after all. Is it? I've never found it to be so. [...] You've fallen for the fallacy of extension. In this case in the formal sense of extending "Wikipedia is addictive", in the sense of many, most or the typical players are addicted" being illegitimately exte...

Their blog Can Beethoven send takedown requests? Betteridge's Law : No. Scroll down to September 3 Wikipedia contributors already work hard to catch and remove infringing content if it does appear.
