Talk:Microsoft Ants

Disputed content

I dispute the last section of this article. While it is true that few active players currently exist, I had no problem starting a game today. I was also told by a player that most people are waiting for WCG to launch their Ants lobby.

I dispute the "Final Frontier?" section as I feel it is more of an advertisement rather than being informative regarding Microsoft Ants. --Zygar2k6 20:51, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

Gameplay?

How about a gamplay section? All the history is nice, but what do you do in the game?? SharkD (talk) 06:27, 27 January 2009 (UTC)

I removed the spam

The links section contained several links to sites with almost nothing on them but links to the commercial sites, which also had links in that section, and in the article. I erased all of that. This spam site inserted itself as an add elsewhere, by its own name as well as its new name which its old site links to. Dream Focus 10:09, 28 September 2009 (UTC)

"Script kiddies"

Can someone please eliminate this term from the article? It's probably correct, but I feel such derogatory/opinionated terminology has no place in a professional encyclopedia. 67.174.153.199 (talk) 20:11, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

Done. You're totally right and the Wikipedia article about script kiddies calls the word pejorative, too. 188.195.136.207 (talk) 19:09, 25 January 2017 (UTC)

Ready to remove the advert warning?

I reviewed the article and changed some of the most judgemental words and phrases (but not all, for example I couldn't get around the "cute characters"). Could please some of the more experienced Wikipedians check if this article is neutral now and remove the advert warning if appropriate? Thanks! 188.195.136.207 (talk) 19:19, 25 January 2017 (UTC)

I don't think so... 22wrench (talk) 06:43, 24 March 2022 (UTC)
