So the similarly poor grammar throughout the OP is also on purpose?

As part of an engineering course we took we had to teach heat transfer to high schoolers. We needed a before and after quiz to demonstrate that they learned something. The problem is they didn't give a shit. We had questions like how does heat from the sun reach the Earth and we got answers...

Yup, once. That's why I said less. I was comparing it to Naruto, who as far as I can tell cries as a hobby.

Wikipedia is a lot more reliable than google dude. Wikipedia can be mediated by a community. Google can give you a few crazy people's blogs. Try searching google for proof of creationism. The things you find will be patently wrong.

Agreed. I'm happy with the change because its one step closer to removing the lock on unlockable content. If you want to collect achievements, then go for it, I enjoy earning them too. But when I see all this cool stuff about the sandvich, I want to go and play with the sandvich, not earn a...
