I feel no need to waste an entire page or make up some name for myself to point out that Mr. Gunmaster is exceedingly hostile to anyone who doesn't fit his particular brand of wiki-ing or shower him with praise. Furthermore, I think having a name and making a page for yourself only encourages this sort of glory-hound pursuit of recognition in my opinion. And as for keeping things on the discussion page, why did you leave our lord and savior Gunmaster's spanking of Mr. Colt Revolver Fan on the main page? To shame him so all who pass by will see that here Gunmaster's word is law? His behavior is childish, and leaving his little hissy fit of a reprimand on the main page of this article only condones further acts of childishness.

It isn't necessary to be calling people a "prick" on the page. If you have strong feelings about something put it on the discussion page. I'm addressing this to the anonymous user 69.152.169.101. If you're going to do that at least log in as a member with a name and a page. I took the liberty of deleting your addition. --Jcordell 16:21, 7 June 2009 (UTC)
See I have a name. Go to my page. Feel free.
I feel no need to waste an entire page or make up some name for myself to point out that Mr. Gunmaster is exceedingly hostile to anyone who doesn't fit his particular brand of wiki-ing or shower him with praise. Furthermore, I think having a name and making a page for yourself only encourages this sort of glory-hound pursuit of recognition in my opinion. And as for keeping things on the discussion page, why did you leave our lord and savior Gunmaster's spanking of Mr. Colt Revolver Fan on the main page? To shame him so all who pass by will see that here Gunmaster's word is law? His behavior is childish, and leaving his little hissy fit of a reprimand on the main page of this article only condones further acts of childishness. Unless we're all well and fine with guilt tripping anyone who makes an honest mistake.
Well Gunmaster is a good kid but he's fifteen.Didn't you get carried away when you were fifteen? The original poster didn't seem to have any trouble so I left it. I just felt like the langauage wasn't necessary. Gloryhound? Well I guess if that's how you feel. It could be argued that being anonymous gives one the sense that they can do whatever and not have to answer or even explain one's behavior. There is alwasy two sides to each story.
