adding the SCP FAQ to the wiki
i am adding most SCP FAQ pages to the wiki, trying to get it organised and searchable. i am just copying and pasting forum posts, adding headers and editing lay-outs. i would like it a lot if someone helped out and checked for spelling, and helped me throw all the bits of relevamt information together, in an organised manner.

SERIOUSLY...! | {The Sandvich Bar} - Rhino-FS2 Tutorial | CapShip Turret Upgrade | The Complete FS2 Ship List | System Background Package

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

Ok then: :no:


Seriously, though - he's right, guys. The Wiki is for everyone to contribute.

Kas, did you mention this in the SCP forum? This forum tends to bump down non-off-topic threads rather quickly.

I'd comment on it, but if this doesn't comprise a specific demand that I stay the hell away from the thing, I don't know what is.

Awww, you're too hard on yourself. I believe in you, Stryke - somewhere, deep, deeep, deeeeeeeeeeeeeep inside, you have what it takes to contribute. It's just a matter of bypassing the defenses you've walled your abilities in with and getting at your Core of Goodness™.
