The offensive one was a racial slur, which was clearly innapropriate, people should be able to use the wiki without the front page insulting their nationality. The main problem is, there aren't enough quotes around to have a decent one every day, grammar mistakes from Cethgus and a couple of others got repetative, personal insults look pathetic to anyone who doesn't know the people involved, and it doesn't leave a lot left. If you have better quotes than the ones we're using Xayun, send them in and we'll put them on there. But we can't put funny quotes on the quote of the day if we don't have any.

So if you'll admit none of it is funny, why do we even have the archive in the first place?
Also, the racial slur would have been far more interesting than anything currently in it; I vote we put it in :P -- [[Xayun]]

Can we fix it so these are funny? By "fix it", I mean remove all of them and replace them with funny quotes that aren't staged, lines that have actually been written in order to become quotes and aren't actually IRC quotes themselves, or horrific Bash.org-alike "OH LAWDY I SURE HOPE THIS DON'T END UP ON DAT WIKI QUOTE THING!" crap. I mean, we *are* working on a quality drive for the wiki, right? -- Xayun

They said good quotes were too offensive =\ --Shadow Taldrya 12:11, 11 November 2008 (MST)
