Ex Libris

In regards to the information that I added to Ex Libris' page. What hostile wording? I simply wrote the exact truth. Since when is that hostile? She started work for X company on X date and was fired by the CEO of said company on X date. How is that hostile? Peregrine Falcon 02:33, 23 September 2009 (UTC)

That is why I put "hostile" in single quotes. It's not hostile, it's 'hostile'. We don't care too much about the circumstances of former developers and community folk, especially whether they get fired. Just a comment that they worked there works sufficiently. ~ AGGE talk/cons 04:22, 23 September 2009 (UTC)

Although english is my native language, I honestly don't understand the difference between "hostile" and 'hostile'. I don't believe that my wording was in any way hostile, I simply want to add factual information and retain the same writing style as the original paragraph. I offer this version as a compromise:

On April 16th, 2009 Ex Libris announced that she would be ending her twenty-seven month stint with the 'City of' community and "moving on to conquer new online gaming horizons" while also re-introducing players to EMpulse, who had returned to his old job. She started work at Sparkplay Media as their community manager for Earth Eternal on April 22nd, 2009 as Wyrd, and left on May 19th, 2009.

That's acceptable. "Was fired" is considered "charged language" in most people's vocabulary - not quite hostile, but 'hostile'. The wiki tries to avoid charged language. ~ AGGE talk/cons 16:06, 23 September 2009 (UTC)
