Heck No Pooh's Adventures

Psyga's General Blog: Reading the rules to Pooh's Adventures, take 2

psyga315:

In the span of a month, the Pooh’s Adventures rules improved slightly, though only in the sense of spelling mistakes getting corrected. The only huge correction is the specification of what exactly they meant by Non-Disney (now it’s animated).

However, the contradictory rules are still there, with the Adventures that break the rules still being there as well. There’s also two new rules there. So I guess I should look at some of the later rules and see what else is there.

16. Only Rated G, or PG and No Rated R.

South Park. Three of them. (I see they have no qualms about doing the same movie despite that whole turf war mentality they have)

17. Only Video Games that are rated EC, E, and E10+ not rated M or AO.

And T? Where the hell is the T rating?

18. Only T.V. shows that rated TV-Y, TV-Y7, and TV-G, Not TV-PG, TV-14, nor TV-MA

Could you still believe I giggle with the Pooh’s Adventures of Breaking Bad page?

19. Only kids shows and animated movies. (live-action family films are exceptions)

Okay, so loop hole for those animated movies that aren’t for kids.

22. This wikia is for those that will not be subjected to copyright claims.

That really isn’t a rule. That’s more of a policy. If what I’m reading makes sense. Can anyone else read this and understand what it means?

23. Original Characters are not acceptable (except LKHFF characters)

Ah yes, the Grandfather Clause. A rule allowing LKHFF characters to be in the Adventures wikia. Reese chose to ignore such claims. And the rule that states no real people (Yeah, Reese wants to be in a Pooh’s Adventure and all that, but he’s still a real person and an original character.)

24. Do not add YTP suff on this wikia.

Guess that means no Tyrannosaurus Alan, Zelda CD-I characters, or Hotel Mario… Oh wait.

26. No Rock music, Pop Music, Heavy Metal, Country Music, etc. Only Disney and Non-Disney Music.

WHAT THE HELL CONSTITUTES AS NON-DISNEY!? And wouldn’t some of Disney’s songs be considered Rock, Pop, Heavy Metal or Country? Guess the Country Bears can take a hike too. Nobody liked that movie.

27. No Gothic or Emo.

At least we share a common ground.

28. Don’t add any upcoming characters when they’re not seen in “Pooh’s Adventures” and/or spin-offs yet.

Then you better remove half the pages since all of that is “so and so will appear in x’s adventures of y”, when said adventure never gets made and put up on Youtube.

29. Antagonists are not allowed to be heroes in any spin-offs.

Well that removes a chunk of characters on this page who never really reformed in their movies (Shenzi in Spongebob’s squad comes to mind). Let’s see who else gets knocked off.

36. There are no penalties if you break the rules. As long as you don’t do it again, then you’re good.

Then what’s the point of going all “This is your ONLY WARNING!” and saying “we will not tolerate making fake pages” if you’re gonna be chillax with the rules?

38. If you plan on guest starring a character in your crossover, you must make sure that character is available by going on the character’s article and seeing if he/she is available because if he/she is already guest starring in another crossover of the same movie or show, then he/she can’t be included in your crossover.

And what about the people who have “is going to appear in” in their list?

And that’s the rules I could cover. It made early Yu-Gi-Oh look like they were strictly following the rules. My thoughts is that this should not be on the Wiki. At all. I can see the reason for the rules, but they’re less of preventative measures and more of restrictive requirements that get broken on a daily basis. By looking straight at the rules, you can see that they can easily snap or be used as a Loophole.

It’s a politician and a lawyer’s wet dream all rolled into one. I say more editing should be done to the wiki to make it more simple to follow and not lead to broken rules that have to have the Grandfather Clause invoked just so that they could be kept.

That’s basically why I did this post. Not because I hated it (though seeing some of these rules did make me wanna bash my head into a wall) but because they need to be seriously looked at. I’m surprised no one else managed to notice the rules. So please, do your best to fix up the rules, but don’t do vandalize it. It just needs clearer editing.

I’m sorry to report that after much thought and consideration, I’ve decided to cancel my parody, Pooh’s Adventures of Kickassia. The reason why is that I felt like my parody would be too similar to Max’s own parody. I didn’t want to seem like a copy cat. Another reason is I’m planning to actually become a reviewer of live-action film, animation and, to an extent, comics. I was thinking I can do other things than making a parody. So, sorry to say but my parody has officially been cancelled. Still, I want you all to know, I still hate this idiotic fad and the moronic people behind it.

Another reason could be that Sonic already did it legitimately.
