He's a PATRIOT!

It's the fact that he isn't nice about it when he deletes stuff, not necessarily always what he does in the first place. Sometimes he forgets to give warnings too. But other than that, I do see that he does quite a bit to care for this wiki.

Bad laag eh?

Man, i was thinking the same thing, and i dont realy have a problem with the guy.

i dont have any problem with him

Some ideots are trying to critisize him again, in a odd way he has my aditud (dosent put up with no s**t and gets the job done), he would make a good member of the BBF club.

(to see last comment)

For those of you that are wondering what BBF means leave me a message.

Can't help advertising for unofficial Halo groups. Tut tut tut...

Response: We have nothing but respect for Manticore's early actions, and he has contributed positively to the wiki before. His recent actions, however, are somewhat questionable and it is those that are causing problems. His aggressive attitude towards what are often innocent mistakes, harsh bans for said mistakes, and willingness to bend and break the rules are causing problems.

Based on what I saw, most users other than a few oddballs like you were calmly discussing the issue until Manticore stepped in with an insulting comment. Got a time machine? If not, don't make unverified claims.

The evidence in question can be found in Manticore's ban and deletion logs, and will be reposted for the consumption of the community soon for those unwilling or unable to find it.

Speaking for myself, I feel that he isn't corrupt, just somewhat overzealous and vindicative. In addition, his defiance of community guidelines is troubling.

"Rocked this wiki's foundation"

Now that made me laugh. Heh heh heh

That's good. I'll have to remember that one. I'll tell you what. To be candid, show me proof that I or anyone actually said "I want to destroy this wiki." or "I want to rebel." What's the matter? Oh! You can't! Well, big surprise. Please do not lie. That is called: not nice.

You want to know how he's corrupt? Well, to be candid, first, let's define corrupt: "Marked by immorality and perversion; dishonest." Well, he attacks a lot of users. Especially those who say he's harsh, or question his actions. When he insults someone, and that person asks for an apology, he finds it smart to attack them instead. God forbid he should give people warnings. This one user, Nathan1111, added information from a Wikipedia page about Halo, to a Halopedia page. This guy was a new member, and didn't know what he was doing. So, what did Manticore do? Well he reverted the edit in 2 seconds, and then blocked Nathan1111. Point: He isn't just corrupt, he's excessively extreme in punishments. N1111 deserved a warning.

Oh and don't worry. There's plenty of other stuff. I don't want to shoot off the load though. If you want, try researching the logs.

Careful with "For the greater good." People can really be offended by that 'cause in the past, those they have known were lost "for the greater good." It also sounds like "the ends justify the means," which really isn't a good thing to say.

That is a good question. Why is he still on the wiki? By rights, he shouldn't be. So why is he? He has too much power. Not only is he an admin, he's a janitor. Rooted in like a tough weed.

Oh, and the points had nothing to do with it. In fact, I came here after that incident.

"But they didnt harm us." Well, close. More like, they didn't harm you. But they did harm others. It's not nice to log on one day and read "You irritate me, and you do not work here, so feel free to ((F-Word))right off!" In fact, that would be considered a legitimate attack by most people. Unfortunetly, Manticore, like the super-rich, is above the law.

Hmm. It seems to me like you don't really know the whole story. See, you've got Manticore's side with his damage control in place. But you don't have mine. So, if you'd like my side before you say something really bad, I candidly invite you to email me at steelrainusmc@gmail.com and ask.

Hanticore may have deleted one blog wrongly, but he's deleted hundreds more that came under the "spam" category. I just feel that it's a shame he bans user's becasue of something frivolous.

It is agreed that he's done many good things, but that doesn't excuse some of his actions.

He can be very inconsiderate, which makes it hard for some people to respect him. I don't know him personaly so I can't say what kind of person he is, but he strikes me as constantly fed up with everything to the point of being intolerent of the slightest wrong. Simply put, frustrated and angry. He has done some good things, but as a leader he should also pay attention to how he treats the people he is in charge of, if he wants their admiration.

Hang on what? Anyway I already made a blog like this post on my one please. I am joking by the way. Anyway I don't understand why have people suddenly went a bit "attacky2 towards Manticore. Sure he may have done something wrong aat one stage but I mean

Hang on the rest of my comment hasn't posted anyway this is what was meant to be there. Haven't we all odne something wrong at one point in our lives we can't just judge people because of a mistake here and there. If he wants to ban point whores and the such let him do just that.

He does mostly target point whores now that I think about it, but thats a good thing.

Yes, we all make mistakes, I got my page erased by Manticore and I can't edit it any more because I made a mistake. His actions were completely justifiable, but still harsh. I posted an apology days ago and he still hasn't responded. My only encounters with him have left me bitter and disappointed.

I try to stay away from Manticore as much as possible. Being insulted is not worth the hassle of a painful and exruciatingly negative conversation. I don't do Fanon, so thankfully I haven't had the displeasure of seing my work deleted.

He's an admin, he has to enforce rules.

Spartan-777 cannot post his feelings for fear that Manticore will ban him.

Well if any Admins are corrupt they should be relieved of their duty. Or banned by other admins
