Talk:Caligan Courier/June'06

Could you plese post at every article who wrote it? Because Kamekaze seems to have more serious and indebt informaiton while talles has more gossip stories.

Actually, Kame wrote the first two, i wrote the last one.

Oh look! Copying us again, Talless! Tut, Tut. --The1exile 00:38, 9 June 2006 (CEST)

I would never copy the filth you write Alex. I did it out of respect for my elder.--Twinblade 15:12, 9 June 2006 (CEST)

The information wants to be free yo --Lumberjack 15:49, 9 June 2006 (CEST)

I was referring to the signing each article separately. --The1exile 19:24, 9 June 2006 (CEST)

Was it copywrited?? --Lumberjack 20:29, 9 June 2006 (CEST)

Copyrighting isn't invented yet. And with each separate realm having their own justice system I don't think anyone would enforce it. But you claimed we nicked your layout (We didn't! It was sirions!) I call that idea for Aurum. --The1exile 20:34, 9 June 2006 (CEST)

For the last time, it wasn't your format we used, and anyways I'm working on a new one. --The1exile 00:17, 23 June 2006 (CEST)

Honestly, I don't think anyone would want to use your layout. The formatting is horrible, in my opinion. But that's just my opinion. Oh, and how exactly is this considered an article? And yes, it is "bashing" us *cough*IJARG*cough*. --Ichigo, Kurosaki Family 00:24, 23 June 2006 (CEST)

I'm going to try to say this very clearly and thoroughly once, so that hopefully I will not have to say it again.

1) My paper's layout was inspired, not copied from The Rampant Lion. It was also inspired by some things of the changes the OR paper did to the layout of The Rampant Lion. (it was also inspired by the layout of the news section of my high school paper, of which I was an editor at one point) Looking at the two papers for about ten seconds should be plenty to indicate to anyone that the changes I made to the layout were not insignificant. The widths of the "right hand box" and the main articles page are different. I use sections and subsections, along with a table of contents, for ease of navigation. Borrowing from OR's paper, we created a "Page 2" for the more in-depth articles. My paper also added its own elements. I divided "page two" into sections, like a real newspaper would (News, Features, and Opinions are different sections you'll find in many a newspaper, and I got the idea from my high school newspaper). We also mark each of our stories as such, like a real newspaper would. The latter two are original, so far as I know.

2) "Stealing" the layout doesn't matter. Even the editor of the Rampant Lion says it doesn't matter if I “stole” his layout. Even if I had outright simply copy pasted the layout, it wouldn't matter. What matters is what's inside the layout. I will match the quality of my articles against yours any day of the week. I happen to believe they are more interesting, more clearly and professionally written, and simply better. At least they don't have spelling mistakes left, right, and center. I won't even go into the atrocious grammar. But, harping out about the layout and trying to make a battle of it strikes me as very silly, where you could be talking about, you know, the actual *articles* instead. But considering what I've seen so far of your writing, maybe that's not such a good idea.

3) We cannot "steal" what we openly on our header admit to having borrowed from. The assistance of the Rampant Lion's layout is attributed on our page. I formally request you to redact or withdraw this statement: "The editor of Yssarias new paper, the "Red Star Courier", somewhat thinks alike Alex of the Itorunt Informer in stealing formats. But instead of stealing our format as Alex did, he stole The Rampant Lions. (Fact not Rumor)". This statement is at best an allegation made without any support, and at worst verifiably false.
