I need to bring this up with everyone, because it's becoming a rampant problem on Acepedia. While it's understandable that this happens on Facebook, 4chan, and other sites that essentially condone childish behavior, I want to put an end to it here.

-

First off, I don't want to see any more comments, forum topics or replies, etc. about anything to do with another player. We are not starting a blacklist of players to avoid in Ace Combat Infinity, nor are we going to start mentioning or sharing videos/pictures/stories about encountering so-called "boosters" in the game. Acepedia is not going to be the community's springboard for a witch hunt.

With that in mind, any mention of PSN usernames (besides your own, if you want to share it to play with others or join an Acepedia event) will be removed. Users will receive warnings for this on their Message Wall if they start doing it, and bans will begin to be handed out if the user ignores the warning.

Secondly, no more comments complaining about Infinity's setup or gameplay. Before the typical people from Facebook tell me that this is just so I can shut up everyone who has a different idea than I do about the game, I'm not doing that. Constructive criticism is a lot different from complaining/whining, and it's the latter that I want everyone to stop doing. Enough about the fuel system. Enough about free-to-play. The game has been released for almost four months now, and there's a lot in the game that is not changing.

If you want to make a valid suggestion about the Sortie Fuel system on the comments section of the Sortie Fuel page, go ahead. If you think that the F-15C -Cipher- should have been handed out to the top 1000 instead of the top 200, go ahead and say so. But don't turn into a 5-year-old going through a temper tantrum.

This is less of a rule since it's still down to personal opinion on what constitutes as whining and what constitutes as constructive criticism. And I'm open to a discussion on this one, which is why replies to this discussion are open.

Thirdly, the language that users are using. I've been modifying comments and posts lately that use words such as "f**k", "b**ch", etc. because this isn't a place for you to show off how many curse words you can use while attacking Infinity or the people who play it. While I and pretty much everyone I know use these words when talking with friends, this is a wiki. I have confirmed visitors that are 13 years old or younger. Keep it to yourself.

Again, this isn't a solid rule and no warnings or bans will be handed out for now. This is also something I'm open to discussion about with the users.

-

My goal here is not to shut up the users, and it's not to start censoring the wiki. My goal is to make this a clean and helpful wiki for the people who play this game, as well as to be friendly to everyone. We don't need the hatred that has been brewing for the past couple of months.

I appreciate everyone taking the time to read through this. Please leave your comments below, and thanks again.
