I ran into this problem with [[BatMUD]]. Anything I write is from
personal experience or is drawn from material written by group which
controls the game. This makes it impossible to resolve content
conflicts as each party has a perfect reason for deleting the content
of the other. Original research or autobiographical writing. So the
article does not contain the sharp criticisms it might, nor does it
fully satisfy those who would promote the site. I gave up struggling
over this due to my position as an arbitrator. Not seemly to get into
a dirty edit war when I'm in the wrong from edit one even if the
other party is too.

about MapleStory. In fact, that is a good thing. Who will describe the
cultural artifacts of the early 21st century in detail, if not us?
Academia can never catch up with the pace of development of these
games. Incidentally, I was recently trying to learn more about the
MMORPG phenomenon, and guess what my best source of information was?
Wikipedia, of course.
