Ok, here is a question.

Where has the entry 'Neds' gone from the Encyclopedia ? I now have a lot of people asking me what a 'Ned' is... and I can no longer point them to there for an explanation.

So... What was wrong with the term 'Ned', given that people asked me a lot what it meant ? A 'Ned' is an UE hazard like any other.

And would it not be polite to inform someone when an entry of theirs is being deleted (As has been done in the past with another of my items which I agreed was probably not relevant to the encyclopedia) ???

If not just polite but sensible as they might re-post over and over ?

We all had ostriches. My dad had an ostrich farm! I remember one day someone came in and said the high altitude bombing of Kosovo had been a limited success, so we all went out and celebrated… by killing an ostrich and boiling it in kiwi fruit.

That is an excellent question.

I would LOVE to refer you to the Ency. for the answer.

But.....


?

Now consider how much of a pain it can be to be asked that question for nearly every site I have - three times over at least.

Jester,

What's wrong ??? Is diddums disapointed ??

Sure, delete it - I'll just explain it over and over like a tard.

Or I'll ask those who want to know what it means to PM you instead...

Whichever you prefer.

I just don't find it, like may things in the encyclopedia, to be necessary, or all that relevant. That's why I don't really patrol the ency. or I'd delete half of it...

Well,

The higher power can do what it likes.

If it's not a relevant entry bin it.

But I know that it being there saves me a lot of explaining - and that to me would be the point of an Encyclopedia.... ?

Anyways, the original point was not really about the definition of NED but why it was orginally deleted; a point which has been answered for me nicely.

And what was the answer ? That nobody can find a trace of it ? I know I didn't delete it, I just "mark read" the encyclopedia and ignore it...

The answer was:

No reason. Go ahead and create it.

As apposed to:

We saw it and deleted it because it broke 75 seperate forum rules. Bad Turboz!

So I went ahead and re-created it.

If it's not relevant - DELETE IT.. But, as I asked in the original question; maybe it might be a good idea to LET ME KNOW and then I won't ask WHY or try to RE-CREATE IT after it has been deemed pointless.

I know if any of my posts are deleted I get a note as to why - why is a topic so different ?

I think they're called "Hoodlums", "Punks" and "Fucktards" in North America.

Or my personal favorite, "asshats". Got that asshat star 3d-ized yet Damien?

I don't ever read the encyclopedia, but I agree with Jester, if there are many entries like this I would have to go on a deleting spree... it's just not topical...

No. I'm not going to do it either. I'm lazy and don't feel like doing that much work with MS Paint.
