To be fair, she said she was venting and this is the pet peeves thread. I think it's fine, so long as it isn't malicious or hurting anyone.
You can't really attribute this to the verse being outdated, the supporters are quite active and regularly make upgrade threads for the verse.
I am the last person on earth who will be swayed by "but think of the advertisers!"
Oh true, I guess it was wrong of me to put those two things in the same post. They're unrelated and I apologize for inadvertently summarizing both as "outdated". SW specifically is outdated. GoW just appears to be indexed poorly.
I understand, I'm just suggesting that the swearing isn't great for the forum.
I don't think anyone likes the advertisers directly, I'm thinking of the staff and community.

EDIT: Five more. Took about a minute to check one claim that's just, completely fabricated. Not even a misinterpretation of information, because the information doesn't fucking exist.
EDIT^2: we might have to nuke GoW from the wiki and start over holy fuck
I've found it's hard to discuss Bleach regardless of what you're saying because the supporters are quick to gatekeep. You raise a positive thing for the verse and they basically tell you to go away. I understand keeping the verse together, but it isn't the most approachable practice.
I'm insane, but not insane enough to touch Shonen scaling.
For someone who is debating Bleach for years for its positives and negatives and committed a downgrade just recently.. YOU DON'T SAY???
It is unique. You make a small speculation or comment and they usher you out even if it's a possible upgrade. I have raised similar things for other verses without a similar response.

it won't be a gag one day.. It will be for real.. The first step looks acceptable.. The Platinum Choke... Then the Platinum Tear soon..
I really don't get why you are even bothering with GoW if it bothers you so much and is mentally and physically draining you, unless you are being held hostage or you/your family is threatened or you are paid to do it. You aren't obliged to do any of this. Just focus on finishing your Touhou revisions considering you seem to actually enjoy it and claim to spend a lot in acquiring its media for research. You claim big revisions coming but you always sidetrack Touhou for some or the other reason. I cannot fathom why the thing u enjoy the most is at the bottom of your priority list.
I genuinely can't believe Naruto has become the underdog fanbase on this site.
The basic premise of this website is indexing characters, and people tend to be here because they have a vested interest in accurate indexing. It's natural to want to fix something when you see it is inaccurate. It's also just the principle of the matter. It's normal for small mistakes to slip through, but I echo Fuji's sentiments that I have never seen a verse with this degree of blatantly inaccurate abilities. I cannot fathom how someone saw a scan that said "Oceanus had 3000 offspring" and would characterize that as "Life Manipulation/Creation."
Yeah we all know what the premise is, but that shouldn't come at the cost of your real life, affecting your mental health or sleep or even your other hobbies. That's what I am trying to say here. Its legit concerning what she is going through.
They were asked to do this by people, if they have monetary gain behind it all you can't even be mad. Might be against standards and horrid practice which people have gotten trouble with in the past but how can you fault someone for getting a bag? It's egregiously worse if someone spends many sleepless nights on a forum online with nothing to gain from it, especially for a verse they don't support or like.
Looking at the lifting strength/Intelligence section of certain characters still makes me chuckle every time,and Nnoitra's master swordman's justification is literally using some stuff that i have been told does not exist.
I have no idea what you're referring to here. As far as I know neither me nor Fuji were asked to do these downgrades by someone else nor were we offered money for it. Please refrain from making bizarre accusations like that.
Touhou would be a far better example imo, as it has far more egregious examples like
I cannot fathom how someone saw a scan with a regenerating health bar and characterize that as Mid-Godly. This is way bad especially considering its a high tier ability.
As much as I don't give much of a shit of tiershit verses like this, that definitely does not look like Mid-Godly Regen
That's not "far more egregious." There could actually be context to the verse mechanics that make this coherent. I agree this gif by itself is insufficient evidence, but it is frankly nowhere near the level of absurdity that I've seen in GoW profiles. This is not "having kids is life manip" level.
Believe it or not, I do actually get burnt out from working on Touhou from time to time. I'm in the middle of a small break right now, actually. Even when not on a break, however, I'm always doing at least something to keep things moving along; I recently finished up a list of over 1000 new abilities that'll be added during the revisions, ordered a book with a lot of official renders that are hard to come by (and those that are still around are pretty crusty, so I'd like to get them in high quality), and a friend of mine has been going through the games to gather the last tiny bits of footage we need. Most of this work has been done during the course of the GoW revisions; I never drop everything I'm doing to pursue some other revisions. Touhou's always on the backburner.
This is perhaps the least concerning thing to happen to me all year. I appreciate the sentiment, however.
what
This is very funny because I am the #1 proponent of Touhou's pages being outdated as hell and rife with misinformation; Not at all comparable to GoW goons swearing up and down that their shit is valid. But since you asked so nicely, here's a more proper justification, including a feat wherein a character absorbs the spiritual energy of everyone in the setting and they all survive.
I don't think that's really a great point. If there was indeed context that justified the ability, then it should've been provided on the thing, you know? Meant to justify it.
That is exactly what I meant and pointed out, that currently Touhou has inaccurate justifications for abilities and needs fixing and is in a sorry state. Whether u have better justifications is another matter. But currently its bad(worse state than GOW where u are trying to remove basically nothing burgers versus high tier abilities for Touhou) which is what I am pointing out
Yeah, it should've been, but that blog is also two years old and I didn't have nearly as much information as I do now. If it really bothers yall I can break my self-imposed no CRT rule and make a better justification for it.
That's why I've been working on it for almost two years straight, my man.
I don't think anyone made the claim "GoW is the only verse with any poorly justified abilities" or "Fuji's favorite verse is a shining beacon of up-to-date information." This example just doesn't provide anything than a hollow "gotcha." It's not nearly as bad as the sort of stuff we've been removing from GoW, like "uses a sonic shriek to make someone's head explode, therefore Death Manipulation."
Of course, I wasn't saying otherwise, but it's not uncommon for the full context to be missing, that's a far more understandable mistake than something self-evidently ridiculous like the Oceanus thing.
Unfortunately I had to spend the $200 on getting a new window, so it just canceled out :/
But I suppose it needs to be halted for another year because of a verse that you don't even support or like or have anything to gain from it. Well I guess Touhou itself can be deleted from the wiki for the time being.
Hollow gotcha, tf, u were the one making a comparison in your post about never seeing a verse like that, I pointed out that I have seen a verse worse than it, and it just happens to be Touhou, nothing more. U can stop with the accusations here.
"Creation (Somehow obtained a new window after the old one was shattered.)"
Why would Touhou be deleted from the wiki? It needs improvement, but its far from being in the kind of state we would need to justify deleting a verse. This just seems motivated purely by spite.
You attempted to claim Touhou was worse because of a single ability that was not properly justified, but still had better evidence than 90% of what Fuji has removed from GoW at this point. That doesn't mean Touhou is worse, at all. The idea that it "just so happens to be Touhou" instead of you clearly trying to pull a "gotcha" on Fuji because you're upset about the downgrades is not plausible. The motivation is transparent.
I'd like to see you try.
Actually yknow what, I'd like to briefly rescind my "no Touhou CRTs" rule for juuuust a little bit. Just long enough for you to make a downgrade CRT - however long you like, whether that be a paragraph or a college-length essay - so you can prove you aren't just talking out of your ass here. After all, if you're so certain it's one of the worst things on the wiki, then surely you must be ready to defend that point of view, right? Or are you just another person who loves to complain about the state of things without making an effort to change it for the better?
Again with the accusations?
I gave an example of a single ability just like you gave an example of a single ability. U can go through the whole verse and see for yourself what are the rest.
Why don't u completely rescind it? There are active verse supporters, why does the verse needs to be locked from making CRTs in the first place if u know its in bad shape?
