==Shoddy change-of-style== | |||
I got about a third the way through the plot summary, and found the style of writing shift significantly. It's clear another writer has taken their own shot at summarising everything beyond that, but it reads as very amateurish and disjointed, at times mentioning points for the first time as though they had come up before. Could be done a lot better than what is currently there. | |||

:Are you insulted by the fact that someone took your summary and posted it here? or are you insulted by what I and everyone else said about your summary? If it's the first question, than disregard everything after this sentence. If its the later question, why would you be insulted if it was never your intention to place the summary here in the first place? In fact no one knew it was you who actually created it; at the time it was some anonymous guy we were giving the credit to. Nonetheless, not everyone is completely negative about the summary, it is a start, just needs work, that's all.--'''''[[User:Killamint|<span style="color:Black; font-family: Arial;">Killamint</span>]]''''' <small>['''''[[User talk:Killamint|<font color="Red">Comm</font>]]'''''|'''''[[Special:Contributions/Killamint|<font color="Black">Files</font>]]''''']</small> 05:17, 19 October 2012 (EDT) | :Are you insulted by the fact that someone took your summary and posted it here? or are you insulted by what I and everyone else said about your summary?

::If you feel insulted because of what some of our editors said about your summary, please understand it's because we expected wiki contributors to use more formal language when they post something, especially when it's a plot synopsis. But since you were posting in a forum thread, the language had to be more conventional, which would be of lower wiki standards. —<span style="font-family: Eurostile;">'''[[User:Spartan331|<span style="color:#000;">SPARTAN</span>]][[User talk:Spartan331|<span style="color:#888;">331</span>]]'''</span> 06:03, 19 October 2012 (EDT) | ::If you feel insulted because of what some of our editors said about your summary, please understand it's because we expected wiki contributors to use more formal language when they post something, especially when it's a plot synopsis.
