If the article is longer than just the word NOPE then I agree with Maj.

I kind of want to vandalize the article so that it is exactly that.

It's basically just a warning that incurable injuries (and dangerous infections) are very likely to result. Sort of a precise and medical "NOPE". Though it does actually manage NPOV.

In this moment, I am Ur-phoric. Not because of any phony god’s blessing. But because, I am enlightened by my int score.

Nope, my mind went there too.

I really like the List of lost treasure. Makes me want to go looking for sunken ships or buried gold.

You should gain sanity for finding out that the problems of a region are because there are fucking monsters there.

Hey, wikimedia users, is there a way to edit or set up pages such that certain edits will only show up in edit-mode?

For example, say I wanted to have a header on certain articles of my favorite TV show that told people to check www.fulminating-assholes.org/wiki-schedule to see whether or not they should wait a couple of days before updating the page to prevent edit spam. Obviously I don't want casual viewers to see this. Is doing this possible?

Your freedom to run/play a game without needing to understand a complex rule system is in direct conflict with my freedom to play a character whose abilities and flaws function as I intended within that ruleset. Your freedom to add and change rules in the middle of the game is in direct conflict with my ability to understand that rules system before I decided whether or not to join your game.

In short, your entire post is dismissive of not merely my intelligence, but my agency. And I don't mean agency as a player within one of your games, I mean my agency as a person. You do not want me to be informed when I make the fundamental decisions of deciding whether to join your game or buying your rules system.

You can probably put things in comments, unless visual editors or something ignore those: <!-- comment text goes here -->
