Good grief. Every thread around here turns into insults so quickly. =/
It is a sad truth on these forums. That is why I don't really care about Wayward's opinion. He just seems like a troll to me.

Can the page be improved for readability? I am sure it can. I just don't buy the argument that the previous page was any better/simpler.

My changes improved the page by making it more accurate, and it really isn't that much text to read. I don't think anyone is going to make a writeup that makes everybody happy.

Again, I'm not sure what it looked like before hand - but I agree that it could use some slight tweaking to make it more streamlined than it is currently. The info is great, but it's hard to skim through. That would be my only criticism of it. Otherwise, thanks for contributing to the ever-expanding knowledge base of this game.

25+ years later and I'm still learning new things about the mechanics

The fact that DSM has permission to display his trash all over wiki in addition to the forums is amongst the worst things this community has allowed to happen

The Game Mechanics thread was meant to be a simple review of published, verified, and fully vetted information about the game and its workings not a severly autistic data dump of a bunch of theoretical parsing that may or may not have any relevance and that is unverified outside of DSM who has proven to be fraught with misinformation.

More trolling (I hope). This is RnF.

A good faith poster wouldn't claim that videos + logs + code from the codebase P99 is derived from is "theoretical".

I provided significantly more evidence to back up my claims that the previous contributors.

If you think I am wrong, please show what I did wrong, and please show your formulas and data.

I bet you won't though, because you don't have your own formulas and data that counter mine.

It's not about the formulas you vapid twat. It's about the fact that you added 200+ lines across 57 edits to the page that was supposed to be a simple overview

I am sorry you think 200 lines is too much reading. I disagree with your assessment. Your opinion is not superior to mine simply because you continue to insult me.

It would take you less time to read that entire wiki page (including my edits) than the time it took you to post 10+ shitposts across two threads.

maybe you could put all your examples on a separate page and link to them

The first line of this thread is: Clean up DSM's trash on the Game Mechanics page.

and it's in RnF.

What are you, a woman?

Third person to suggest this, but my money says that he will continue thinking he is right by adding 200+ lines of Melee combat examples to a SIMPLE OVERVIEW of the ENTIRE GAMES MECHANICS
