[edit] Why did you remove the ASB Support Board link?

To 81.57.186.204: Why did you remove the ASB Support Board link? The linked website is very relevant to Aegis. 66.92.144.74 09:30, 1 February 2006 (UTC)

I didn't do it but probably because it's illegal to run an Aegis server? Because the sourcecode was stolen? --Soyweiser 21:47, 16 February 2006 (UTC)

I think that should just about do it.

[edit] Article requires cleanup

The article is horribley formated, NPOV as well as there are no references and only list the account of one person. Wikipedia is not a story board, it is an encyclopedia. The story about "hacking" is not relevant to Aegis, and even if it is, not how it is displayed on the article. PFAK 16:41, 22 July 2006 (UTC)

I don't see how it's NOT relevant - Shouldn't people know where the software came from and how? As far as the "one person", I don't see how that's bad when the person involved is an authorative source. I was directly involved. It's like saying a medical article from a doctor is NPOV unless proofread and corrected by an auto mechanic. --198.199.189.14 15:13, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] This article still requires major cleanup

I believe this article is completely NPOV, it is based on the experience of one individual. I believe that if the history of a "leak" is to be discussed on the article, that it should be written in brief point form, and not from the views of one person. Also, I believe that the events listed in this account do not take into account the views of both parties. I do not know how this can be listed in a manner that is NPOV.. --70.68.135.197

I went back over it and reworked some of it - I removed the word "hacker" because it doesn't apply here, replaced "story" with "lie", and provided the events of the demise of the shadow group. This should be closer to neutral. I stopped short of naming names and using the word "criminal", because that might be biased too far the opposite direction. I do not wish to glorify or justify what happened - It was entirely criminal and entirely illegal, and should never have been planned, let alone executed, but I do believe the origin should be known. There are more than a few people who do not know what the Aegis really is, or where it came from; several groups have taken credit for it, and much misinformation is being propagated about it. Just saying "It was obtained from Gravity" isn't enough. --74.134.114.185 08:50, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

Nevermind the previous comment, some random came along and deleted the entire section as "nonsense". Apparently nobody cares about how it got here as long as you all get to play Ragnarok for free. You can't undo history just by deleting it. --74.134.114.185 01:46, 3 September 2006 (UTC)
