:*'''Comment''' Does that detract from my points in any way? That seems like an ad hominem attack rather than a reason to not keep the article. And for the record, I have made other edits to various articles as an anonymous contributor.--[[User:Cthulhon|Cthulhon]] 02:33, 19 April 2006 (UTC)

::When it comes to assessing the community [[Wikipedia:consensus|consensus]] on whether this article will be kept, the history of the contributors to this discussion is relevant. Those users who pop up in response to the discussion (usually arguing "keep") are not considered to have truly put in the time on the project that would make their opinion worthwhile, and frequently their votes are discounted or discarded altogether. This is well stated in our deletion policies, in order to avoid ballot-stuffing using [[WP:SOCK|sock- or meatpuppets]].

::That you have made edits under other IPs is ... well, that's nice. Since we have no way of verifying this as you didn't start an account until today, we can't really say one thing or the other about your credibility on that basis. As it is we have no way of knowing what your agenda is here (If you want to be taken more seriously in this sort of discussion in the future, by all means edit under your current account and build up a history).

*'''Keep''' Blizzhackers is a well known website. New users will want some information about it before using it, to make sure that the content available is trustworthy.

:*'''Comment''' Blizzhackers is far from being about 'hacking' despite the name. Its a community of relatively good, knowledgable people, and a rich source of information, on programming, graphics and general life problems. In my honest opinion, in relation to gaming, Blizzhackers is one of the more important pages on the internet. Deleting it would be a travesty - ''Jake'' aka -[[User:JsRide|JsRide]]
