Conflicts

 * Alternate History of the Wikia 3 conflict
 * (Formerly AcadianMapping) complains about "impersonating" other users in the game Alternate History of the Wikia 3, after his in-game self was said to be "vandalizing and altmaking" by and . Alternativus55 claims that it's against the game rules to "impersonate" other users, have in-game wiki wars, and do any "unrealistic" turns (on a quite unrealistic game), despite just making up the rules by himself without anyone saying he could do so. Alternativus55 then starts a pyramid argument on the thread with SconesAndTeaMapping and EthanKoenigsberg, with others trying to stay out of the conflict. In the end, Alternativus55 creates two polls on whether or not to continue the game, but  decides to close the thread the next day to avoid further argument.
