There are a lot of things that are unclear, and that is not your fault, so technically there's no need for you to apologize to anyone here, not even me. This wiki started in 2013 ~ 2014, not sure now. But being a Wiki that is "live" for 3 years or long, it should have Formatting Guidelines and Policies so that new comers can find their way around without remarks from other users. But somehow for whatever unknown reason, there aren't any yet... Most of the active users who have easy going interactions with others clearly show that they have learnt their Wiki-Fu elsewhere (such as myself), so we don't need to go through the basics. And we have all been there where you are now. One of the life phrases that I like the most say: "The difference between veterans and new people, is that the veterans had made more mistakes".

There is a user behavior known as "RC patrol" which means Recent Changes, constant checking. Any user who clicks that link daily can see all the edits that are being performed. Depending on the changes themselves, normal or minor, etc. Most of the time, there is no requirement for anyone to talk to others first. Yes, you can edit without asking "permissions". The thing is, that users leave "Edit summaries" so that if its between you and me. Every time I edit after you, you can know what was the reason that I edited after you. For the past days, I was leaving you summaries, which looks like you read them but were not understanding maybe? So discussions are featured in wikis for when a same article has this back and forth. Some times you can just open a discussion in the very first disagreement which is more polite to other users. Basically what brought the attention was repeated remarks.

Touch range, was a phrase I brought in to say that obviously, you are not going to shoot less than 30 tiles with an 11 miss-radius, as you risk bombing yourself, not literally in this game, but real life military practice often suffers accidents where the missile misfired to the foot.

Now, we just need to chill. Its absurd to fight other people through the internet with pixels. Let other people step in, and in 3 days or so, we agree on the final outcome of those pages. Consensus is not the same as win based on majority...there should be an explanation here somewhere about that. But basically, because its clear that you are a new comer, there is no need to address R3 or R1 policies. Three revert rule or just one revert rule, exist in every wiki, its just not written here yet I think,...but...If you find yourself reverting or undoing on a same page at least once, its best if you take the dispute to the talk page. Users who repeatedly revert or undo, are classified as "Revert-Warriors", which of course is a negative label. I know that is NOT you, just letting you know. I myself, just like Pigeon Guru, we see a lot of potential in you and there is no intent in scaring you away. We just need a set of parameters (written), that currently is missing...
