User blog:Schoolbus13/The only issues I have with SFW.

Overall, SFW is a good place. However, before this wiki can truly become a fun place to visit on the web, a LOT needs to be done.

So I'll explain everything; Guyviroth-style.

The one-sentence article!
One of the WORST issues I have seen on this wiki. People think that they can come here and start an article with only one sentence, then promise to finish it later.

Next thing you know, it's been 2 fudgin' years and not a darn thing's been done with that article! Those articles should be obliterated so we can move on.

Constant violation of the Roleplaying Policy!
"Oh, I'll just call this 'RP: Sunny Days'"

You have violated the RP Policy. By naming your title "RP:" instead of "Roleplay:," you've just violated a rule! I've seen about 20-25 of these incidents since the wiki redesign in July! Ultimately, who was to correct the problem? '''THE ADMINS. '''

Those of you who can get away with naming your Roleplay "RP: ", I should ban you (limited time, not permanent,) for violating a policy!

The grammar....the HORRIBLE grammar!!
Issue #1, the grammar. I've seen a lot of users here use decent or good grammar, but recently, users have started creating blogs/articles/comments that look like this:

" is a Pretty hedgehg who lives ibn the Mystic ruinz. :) My chara can shoot fire and can do anything with her on mind....LOLZ. She cn pwn people."

If you think that was horrible, more and more users are using "Textian" language:

"u kno tht tht's the way 4 u, LOL ROFL...."

This is a WIKI, not a test-messaging service. If you want to use that kind of language, sign up for a texting plan with T-Mobile, Vodafone, Sprint or any other carrier.

Maturity levels
Compared to SNN, most (but not all) of this wiki is a hellhole when it comes to the level of maturity that's displayed at this wiki. Some of the users act out the common signs of immaturity: whining, sucking up to the admins, using despicable grammar, and flaming others just to make sure that your views come out on top.

If you act like that, you're not much better than a TROLL.

"Roleplague"
People can contain viruses most of the time. However, SFW is suffering from a virus called the Roleplague.

Once upon a time (mid-2009,) some users got together and formed a new concept, SFW's Roleplay, a place where users can play as their own characters. It sounded like a good idea. Then the concept of the RP began to spread...

Now it's uncontrollable. We now have hundreds of RPs, some in locations that aren't the spot for roleplays. First, RPs spread to mainspace. They were sent to the forum, then into their own namespace. However, it didn't stop spreading. Now, RPs are found in talkpages, some user talkpages, relationship pages, some blogs and some mainspace pages.

That's despicable. The roleplay is fun; it gives users a way to interact in more ways than one, but now it's grown out of hand. I helped to create a specific HOME for RPs (the Roleplay namespace,) but RPs are still found in those.."hard to reach" places.

So, in a nutshell...
Even AFTER the redesign over the summer (winter for Australians,) this wiki is still considered inferior to other fan-sites around the web. We need order, policies and a grammar guide/Manual of Style.

This wiki needs to be rebuilt from the ground up.
