Do not look beneath the surface of Wikipedia. It's nothing but a seething morass of bureaucracy. Just follow the link from your Google search, get the info you need, and leave.
So back on a more site-related topic, what is everyone's opinion on putting the name of the game at the start of the question title like this? (Not passing judgement on any particular user, just pointing out a trend)
room topic changed to The Bridge: of Gaming's StackExchange™ AlienOverlord AskQuestion™ mothership, overloading its lazers for the imminent elections. Yes, it's badp's fault. I've put it here so you don't have to mention it again. You're welcome.
@Brant I try to work the name of the game into the question naturally, as long as the question is not too long anyway. I'm pretty sure it helps with SEO. The automatic tag-adding to the title doesn't help as soon as you have a pc,xbox,spoiler, ... tag on the question.
This is difficult to ask. Ok, so this guy is really getting on my nerves. He's stubborn, obnoxious, idiotic, and completely driving me up the wall.
It's time for him to go.
However, there is a bit more to it than that. I could simply organize the other people involved to banish him from our ...
@ArdaXi It actually doesn't show the tag at the start if it's been used in the title. The problem with those questions is that they all say "Starcraft2" not "Starcraft 2", so that doesn't happen.

> If you have a lot to back up, the initial backup might take longer than you'd like. So we offer a ‘seed service’ where we send you an external hard drive to use for your first backup. After you send it back, we transfer the data directly to CrashPlan Central, saving a lot of time on your first backup.
the other big ISP around here (Rogers) aggressively blocks bittorrent. they even go so far as to transmit fake 'disconnect' messages to your client that supposedly come from the peers you're connected to.
Some islands have bear pits on them, but I'm not sure what I am supposed to do with them.
What are the bear caves and what do they do?
How do I harvest this resource?
I have a 1tb external drive that time machine backs up my entire hard disk to, and I pay ~$2.50/mo for offsite backup of my home folder (everything but apps/system, basically) through crashplan
(in my infinite paranoia, several years ago I started doing semi-annual backups to two external hard drives, one is kept at my uncles place, and another, used in july is kept with a friend)
can somebody come up with a rational explanation of how a train travelling between point MO and point LE was able to get on a track that just isn't connected with the MO-LE railway
I don't back up my downloaded movies, I keep them on my time machine drive. Could care less if I lose that stuff, it's just transient -- I delete after I watch
@badp My music collection is 90% of my backups. I have some seriously rare shit, and the thought of having to rip most of this stuff again is the stuff of nightmares.
the thought of losing my carefully-curated music collection (ruined by an ex-girlfriend's addition of Coldplay, Nirvana, George Michael, and Remy Shand) makes me shiver.
