Greetings curious people,
we occasionally attempt to make corrections to pages where the grammar or spelling confuse or appall us. We may be somewhat more skilled in these endeavors than some PHD holders whose work should really be better. Using 'effect' for 'affect' is a good example of an appalling error made by a person with a PHD that we recently stumbled upon.

Our memory is poor, so large-scale projects with deadlines are difficult, consequently we expect to limit most of our contributions to minor editing.

We are making these small contributions to the content in part because we cannot afford to provide financial support for this wiki. We wish we could turn off those annoying pop-ups on some sites that complain when we use ad-blocking, but the ads make some pages load so slowly that they are useless without an ad-blocker.


Please note:
We are behind the times, still playing Oblivion; we will probably move to Skyrim by November 2017 or so... We have played large portions of Arena and Daggerfall, and nearly all of Morrowind. We have also played all the titles in the Fallout series up to and inclusive of New Vegas.

We prefer user-vs-environment to player-on-player MMO games, mostly because we get confused easily. Our PC is our only gaming platform, the hand-held controllers for play-station, etc, hurt our hands too much to use. Online games are a problem because we need to pause frequently; we just wish they weren't so tempting...

We are a multiple-personality 'collective' with no plans to return to saying 'I' instead of 'we' in the near or foreseeable future. We will be careful to never use any self-references when editing the 'public-facing' pages, so this shouldn't be a problem for anyone who has not visited our user page.

If you do have a problem with us you are welcome to talk with us here (or our user_talk page?), if that is in accordance with the local guidelines. We will try to comply with guidelines where compliance is appropriate, we take corrections to our contributions with aplomb, we can be pretty good at making our own mistakes.


In conclusion:
At this point we are still learning how to use 'edit summaries', and prolly still need to understand how to use the parenthetical coding too. Perhaps we will use the edit summary field below correctly...

<crosses toes because fingers are too busy typo-ing>

We do not have a lot of markup experience, but if we find our contributions here are valued then we will be inspired to learn the skills needed to improve.


We are in awe of the contributions required to create any wiki, so we say:

Thank you all!
