Talk:Iron Realms Entertainment

message: All of Iron Realm's games have pages except Imperian. Anyone know why this is? 223ankher (talk) 13:12, 13 April 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Because of Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/Imperian.  This was back when Articles for Deletion was called Votes for Deletion, and in a time of a lot of knee-jerk prejudice against MUD notability, so it'd be a fine candidate for re-creation if you found some reliable sources talking about it. —chaos5023 (talk) 14:55, 13 April 2010 (UTC)

message: Why the heck was "Iron Realms MMOs are among the most popular in the world" in Wikipedia?  This fact is unverifiable and sounds like a plain advertisement/propaganda to me.  It has been removed until sources can be found.

State your facts.
Q: Where did the "#2" statistic come from?  Is the combat engine actually the most advanced in it's field?
A: The second rank statistic is most likely based off of Top MUD Sites.  It would be difficult quantify what makes the combat engine the most advanced of any MUD or similar game, but you are welcome to examine its complexity on your own. An essay, written by the creator, explaining the theory behind the combat system has been reproduced here: Mechanics of Achaean Combat
* I apologize for breaking up this comment, but it was unsigned and I'm not sure where it ends. The #2 statistic is one I've heard the CEO use before. I'm guessing it's either market share or revenue. Only Simutronics has higher market share and revenue in text MUDs. Aurelius17 03:40, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Content issues

message: I am removing links to Persistent Realms LLC on this article.  It doesn't seem to be affiliated with Iron Realms Entertainment (the only relationship between the two seems to be client-vendor) and links such as this should go into an article describing the company it's about.  I have replaced the links to Persistent Realms web site with redlinks for anyone who wants to create such an article. 68.226.61.4 02:03, 27 April 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Persistent Realms LLC

message: There are a lot of heavily opinion-based comments on this page about the company's revenue model.  If they're still in business then it's obvious some people agree with how the company makes its money.  I don't think unsubtantiated judgements on the business model should be included in the entry.
If someone is going to take the time to research IRE, shouldn't they be informed about the working games that IRE has released by having descriptions of the games on this page, or a link to the wikipedia page on the game. All four games should be described with information such as playable races, generic mob data, stat systems, class systems, etc. (Generically, of course.)

thread_title: Opinion-driven Comments

message: I don't see how the CEO should have his own article.  For example, Luca Pancallo (PlaneShift MMORPG founder) had his own article deleted.  You gotta be notable, like John Romero, to merit your own article.  Leave the CEO in Iron Realms Entertainment.  Tuxide 05:28, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  CEO 

message: A companies public, verifiable history with customers - especially if it is exceptionally poor - is an important item to include on the page. This is certainly so if the the history can be independently verified, with third-party sources cited to bolster the information.
It is poor form for a company to edit their own page to remove valid content that cites two separate sources that both provide evidence of the companies attitude towards their clients. If the company wishes to have a clean record with their customers, they should seek to rectify what those customers perceive they have done wrong, not edit a Wikipedia page that is providing valid and valuable information.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by AlanRoca (talk • contribs) 04:44, 24 July 2011 (UTC)
