[edit] Paradox Trifora

Delete: non-notable web forum. JDoorjam 19:43, 18 August 2005 (UTC)

I vote against deletion: I cannot help but think JDoorjam is biased since he removed the bulk of the article and then nominated it for deletion. At least leave it in tact and nominate the article for what it is. . . wadehouston

  • Check the page history, pal. I removed "I am bored and very horny" which an anon put in there. Then I added a stub, and then added vfd. JDoorjam 22:08, 18 August 2005 (UTC)

its a spurious wank. delete it. (previous unsigned comment by: User:24.72.26.37

  • Its offensive towards the Tomatoforum and ITF. If you write an encyclopedia article, you cannot write it from a single point of view, and furthermore you cannot write it in such a way to offend people whose tastes differ from yours. While the Paradox Trifora mainly discusses politics, the Tomatoforum people mainly talk about daily events, which (admit it or not) include pornography, rude words and making fun of someone elses misfortune. But it's unfair to say that it's made out only of "massive amounts of spam, pornography, and references to gross-out humor", since many positive topics are discussed also, so it looks like the author either knows nothing about the forum he accuses or his arrogance doesn't allow him to see what he doesn't want to see.

Delete it ASAP.(previous unsigned comment by: User:195.24.9.6


I find it highly offensive that Paradox Interactive are associated with the kind of degenerates that would operate such a forum as Tomatoland or ITF. The information, if it can be called that is highly misleading and in some cases just plainly untrue..(previous unsigned comment by: User:Sir Clive

  • As the author of the original article, I refuse to take responsibility for hijacks by teenagers such as the one mentioned above, nor do I see the point in listening to anonymous criticism by non-members. Paradox Entertainment is one of the most popular forums for video game developers, and especially high among European-based ones. The excuse that it is for not popular webfora is relativism at its best, and perhaps this deletion article itself needs a Neutral POV indicator, since you obviously are misinformed, JDoor. Sadistik

  • Character defamation at its best. I state outwardly that I am Sadistik, while you refuse to admit to your identity, Kyujuni. Regardless, I am not a neo-nazi, fascist, nor a racist. My religion prevents me from being entirely accepting of homosexuality, but I fail to see where that is your business, nor do I see where it effects the article in any way. All of the most slanderous lines were added afterwards by other people, and that is documented.

  • This article is total bollocks, waste of space, and therefore should be deleted. And contrary to what the individual above states, he is a fascist who admires Mussolini. Well anyway, i don't understand what the heck is an article about a relatively obscure internet community doing here. (previous unsigned comment by: User:82.181.92.17

This article is entirely accurate and I find it unbiased. I will be saddened if this masturb.. masterfully written article is removed. -Fireblade(previous unsigned comment by: User:65.66.68.144


Well, a few improvements have been made. :nods: - Sultan of Sausage Sucker(previous unsigned comment by: User:82.32.28.238


  • Removed inappropriate comments --Scimitar parley 14:33, 9 September 2005 (UTC)


  • I suggest Sadistik get a dictionary so he can look up words like Libel in the future. As it is I can clarify it for him. Libel is character defimation through the written word, which he admits too.(previous unsigned comment by: User:205.206.187.146

Don't delete As obscure as the topic may be to outsiders it is still a valid article. - Josquius (indeed posted by: User:Josquius

  • Derlete- It should be several seperate articles giving detailed descriptions of the perversions personal to each poster at the forums in question, also it should admit how much all those forums, especialy this 'ITF' owe to 'The Keg'. :nods: - Rusty The Walruss(previous unsigned comment by: User:64.254.0.30
