Hi there, and welcome to the 'pedia! We try to create articles that can grow and be expanded by others, those which cannot we call unfixable "stubs". Stuff like Bunker (StarCraft) is better integrated into the respective main article, in this case, StarCraft, because nobody is likely to write a 30K long philosophical essay about StarCraft bunkers ... --Eloquence 05:13 25 May 2003 (UTC)

Hmm, that must be what's going on with the Safety rating article. That was a good call, but one has to wonder, does sheer coolness merit a dedicated article in some circumstances? For instance, consider Captain Zyrain. How many times has he (or she, as the case may be - some androgynously-named space warriors, notably Samus Aran, are female) saved my ship from destruction? I was cruising thru FedSpace the other day in my Merf with 30 fighters and no shields, when suddenly an enemy Corporate Flagship with 20,000 fighters powered up weapons systems, only to have CAPTAIN ZYRAIN show up, loudly warning him to back off! Yes, Zyrain is a friend to the multitudes, a protector of the weak, a destroyer of illegally possessed Imperial StarShips. Yet, I suppose I will end up merging him/her into the main TW2002 article. — Nathanlarson32767 (Talk) 06:25, 24 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Just figured I should say hi since I live in Corvallis and all, and I think we both know it's kind of boring. :Sarge Baldy 00:56, Dec 4, 2003 (UTC)

Dang, you live in Corvallis too? How many of us are there? — Nathanlarson32767 (Talk) 06:32, 24 Jan 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Safety rating

I hope you don't mind. I thought that there wasn't much potential for a longer article, so rather than marking it as a stub, I combined it with the main article. You can always switch it back and put something on the talk page to see what other people think. *shrugs* Quickbeam 06:29, 24 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Yeah, no big deal, you probably saved it from vfd. Thanks, — Nathanlarson32767 (Talk) 06:30, 24 Jan 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Tried to steal your name

Hi. You will probably get an email with your password. I was trying to create an account, and thought I might have one under this name already, since I use it as a handle elsewhere. Congratulations on your good taste in handles. - Dave Clooney
