[edit] Pokemon mini Follow Up

Thank you very much for replying, it is much appreciated. I will ask those at Pokeme about the game. If you ever do find any proof, please drop me a further line on my user talk page. Kelestar 12:40, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Pokemon mini Tetris

Hello, I am responding to a comment you made upon the Pokemon mini history page that the Tetris game was in fact released in Europe. I know that it was indeed translated to English but I was under the firm impression that it was never released. Please note that this is not a malicious comment; but I am just a concerned collector who thought he owned all of the English Pokemon mini games and now finds himself in a bad position! Please contact me on my user page to discuss this further. Thanks for your time. Kelestar 22:41, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Nintendo article

Hi Thaddius. You're a Nintendo fan from your edits. Am I correct? As such, I'd appreciate your opinion on a recent edit that was made to the Nintendo article; about the pioneering method of the Wii's controller technology. If you wouldn't mind taking a look, it would be great. Thanks! Ex-Nintendo Employee 05:58, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

Not a HUGE Nintendo fan, but I'll take a look. --Thaddius 12:05, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Virtual Boy article

Ok, I've put in the modified version of the paragraph you wrote. I hope you think its ok. Again, I'm sorry if you felt I was being mean, agressive or condescending- it wasn't intended at all. You're a valuable asset to Wikipedia and you've made a lot of good edits, and hopefully we can get this disagreement worked out. Ex-Nintendo Employee 01:12, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re: The Order

Hi Thaddius

This is the infamous SilentHylian of the IMDb "Silent Hill" Board. ;) I wanted to let you know how great I think The Order page that it looks you're largely responsible for is. It is perhaps one of the most comprehensive understandings of their belief systems I've seen online. However, there are two errors I thought I'd call to your attention instead of editing myself.

The Cult depicted in the film is not The Order, as was confirmed by Gans himself in this article:

"There isn´t just one Cult in Silent Hill. Why? Because what we wanted to do with the movie, and we probably were a bit ambitious, was to open the Silent Hill mythology, to open as many leads as possible." -Christophe Gans

Original Text: http://blogs.allocine.fr/blogs/index.blog?blog=allocine&themeID=3307 Translation: http://forums.cgsociety.org/archive/index.php/t-345768.html

The other is with reference to the sects of the Order:

The three sects are The Holy Mother Sect, The Saint Ladies Sect abd The Valtiel Sect which mediates between them. There is no "Holy Woman" sect. Please see here and click on Victim 01/21 page 2: http://translatedmemories.com/victimfiles.html

My attempts to edit other Silent Hill pages on Wikipedia are usually not, how shall I put this? Well received. I thought by contacting you first, I might more easily arrive at my intended result and mission as "SilentHylian": distribution of accurate Silent Hill information online.

Thanks! SilentHylian

[edit] Thanks for your quick reply.

Sorry if this was unclear. I wasn't suggesting that the Cult in the games is not the Order, just that the Cult depicted in the film isn't them. Hope that's more clear. I just noted I said the opposite of what I meant above in my original note to you. Sorry for the confusion.

Thanks again for your quick reply!

[edit] So sorry!

I created more confusion than I had hoped to dispel by using the wrong word.

The cult depicted in the game is in fact the Order. We know this as of Silent Hill 3's article by Joseph Schreiber (of SH4 fame) found in Brookhaven Hospital:

"The cult religion that operates "Hope House" is known by the locals simply as "The Order"."

The cult depicted in the film however, is not, as per the link to Gans I provided initially.

I hope this clarifies things. Feel free to take an authoritative stance on this with this entry as you now have the sources to back up both claims as well as the proper names of the 3 Sects.

[edit] Some loving edits from a random user

This was taken off of my user page.

critisisms -> criticisms

Thaddius -> Thaddeus

Janapese -> Japanese

it's -> its

anomolies -> anomalies

\ -> /

illiterate shithead

While I'm open to criticism, I do not apprecaite your slander. I imagine it's quite clear from the fact that I'm writing and reading Wikipedia that I am in fact not illiterate. But whatever, while we're at it, you forgot:

agruing -> arguing

focussing -> focusing

affinty -> affinity

My user name, Thaddius, is spelled correctly, thank you. It is not my fault that you aren't open to alternate spellings of names. Also, the '\' that I used is fine. You're just being picky. I fixed the real errors, cause they seem to bother you enough to call me a 'shithead'.

Apparently this person doesn't know how to spell my name, nor does he have enough balls to sign up for a real account to make edits. I'm going to do what I can to make sure that their IP is banned.

UPDATE: It already WAS banned. Apparently I'm not the first person to be attacked by this user. Their ip is 69.108.175.213. If anyone here reading this notices any activity on their part, please inform a moderator.

[edit] Silent Hill influences and trivia

I finally got around to consolidating all of the SH trivia sections onto one page : Silent Hill influences and trivia. There were a whole bunch of duplications between the trivia sections, a lot of scattershot Jacob's Ladder stuff, and more inane movie comparisons and half-assed theories than I care to recall. I figured I'd drop you a line, because you show up quite a bit in the SH page histories. :' ) Tzaquiel 17:06, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
