Flecko.net
Advertising Seinfreak37 17:12, 31 January 2006 (UTC) I further note that Tarrasque is listed as a significant user so it has a whiff of vanity about it. Further, the founder of the site "doesn't post quite as often as he used to, uninterested in the forums now that he has more important things to worry about."

 * Keep - Fixing it up. Under construction. FleckoTarrasque 21:10, 31 January 2006 (UTC)
 * What you have added can hardly be considered encyclopediatic. Mentioning that "it is overrun with tards" and "features a wide variety of topics, ranging from inane bullshit (music threads) to highly enlightening subjects (how robust your man-titties are)" is not helping matters - Seinfreak37 21:30, 31 January 2006 (UTC)
 * It gives you a sense of the history and mechanics of the site, current and past, and now features bios of significant members. The original creator of the wiki also misspelled Max's last name and added a sub-par description of the site. FleckoTarrasque 22:15, 31 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete as non-notable website. Adrian Lamo · (talk)  · (mail) · 21:28, 31 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment: This page was previously AfD'ed, with the result being seven votes in favor of deletion, and none opposed. This site may, somehow, someday become notable, but that day is not today, nor was it 24 October 2005. Adrian Lamo · (talk)  · (mail) · 22:11, 31 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Note that the site is the home of the popular Madness Interactive flash game and a copious amount of mods, not to mention a modding resource community. FleckoTarrasque 22:17, 31 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete does not meet WP:WEB Agnte 22:51, 31 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. No evidence presented that it meets WP:WEB.
 * Delete - I am the Andrew mentioned in the entry. The piece is a ton of fluff, characterized by extremely poor writing and containing little of importance. I took the liberty of making certain changes (such as the removal of my last name) in the article. Further, most of the content of the entry is suited more for a particularly poor Uncyclopedia entry than a Wikipedia entry. At the very least, the pieces on the forums and users should be cut out and the entry should be relegated to a brief mention of Flecko.net being the home of Madness Interactive and Max's other games.

 * Comment I removed the speedy deletion tag because this version of the article is far more expanded than the one originally deleted back in October 2005.  howch e  ng   {chat} 00:48, 1 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment: You're absolutely right; when I looked at the article, I somehow missed the AfD box (I guess because it ran into the TOC?), looked at the history and saw that it had been through a previous AfD and when I looked at that revision, the AfD box went to the original AfD. Somehow all of that conspired to confuse me into thinking it was simply a repost, and I didn't see the second AfD nomination.  My apologies. --bbatsell  |  &laquo; give me a ring &raquo;  00:54, 1 February 2006 (UTC)
