[edit] Clyde Bielss

  • do NOT Delete

This article is about a valid game developer. if you look on google you will find many articles on this person (over 14 pages of interviews news articles and comments to be exact). All the people posting complaints here is from a coder forum and has a personal problem with clyde. Personal issue should not be taken into account when deleting a post.

The game Control Monger was in many video game magizines (at lest 6 in 4 different countries) and on many game news sites and his game FreeWorld is in the news of many MMORPG websites on a monthly bases. I think if you look into this you will find that Clyde is a notable game designer.

here is the link to prove it is a group of people trying to get this removed for no reason http://www.codersworkshop.com/viewpost.php?id=50219

Doesn't warrant a page on Wikipedia, written by subject. WP:VAIN Flying cucco 21:28, 10 January 2006 (UTC) Not delete - If you do, why not remove other articles such as John_Romero, Peter_Molyneux or John_Carmack? The artical is valid and original, this is yet another attempt by a small number of people to vandalise this article. - Contact: wikipedia(at)tmrd.net

Is and has always been a "spammer" and is only here to promote his products -sorry drac, but it's true, also highly unnotable other than the blemishes that he's created across the web erbbysam 23:55, 10 January 2006 (UTC)

Do not delete - I am surprised that people want to delete this article about Clyde Bielss. I have known Clyde for two years, when I was working as senior editor at Warcry.com. He was at the time involved in his FreeWorld project which had an open beta while they were testing. I was one of the beta testers, and considered FW an enjoyable game and good entertainment for many people. He is currently redoing and upgrading FreeWorld for better graphics and enjoyment of the game. I also know that Clyde has also helped other people in the industry get a start, since he asked me to write articles for these folks and their games in Warcry. I am logged in but not sure how to make my name appear. Anyhow, I am... Raya, News Manager, Vanguard Ten Ton Hammer.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by RayaTTH (talk • contribs) .
