User blog:Dryuuu/Concerning Cultfix (Update)

'''UPDATE: ODIN MAY INDEED BE RETURNING AS OTHER RELIABLE SOURCES HAVE INDICATED SO. I APOLOGISE FOR CAUSING THIS CONFUSION.'''

'''It's just that Cultfix have a bad track record and have never apologised for their mistakes... but I will apologise for accusing them, but I will not be certain until I see Odin in a trailer or promo image, or in the episode itself (as there's only a day left).'''

'''I agree I was too quick-thinking and I apologise, but I am trying to be ruthless in defending this Wiki from rumours- assumptions and mistakes will be made! So apologies- I do hope Odin does really return and I think he will at one stage or the other!''' "Cultfix", a Merlin fan website who in my opinion, are only too lucky to still be up. They report false information such as Alvarr returning based on one random online blog on the Internet from some completely random person who has nothing to do with the BBC Merlin production crew, and circulated the false, completely fabricated and unfounded 29 September release date for Merlin. They then changed and removed it without apologising after I sent several Tweets and emails and left comments demanding them to.

Luckily I was personally contacted by Shine Limited, the makers of Merlin, to help them out with false info and I told them that Cultfix is one of the offenders- they said they'll keep an eye on them.

So what lie is Cultfix reporting now? King Odin returning. I mean, as much as we'd love it they seem to be simply making up their own information now, or, again, getting it from unreliable places. I do wonder how seriously the people who run the site take it. But they are inconsiderate and should realise they have influence (not as much as our Wiki, luckily!) and are abusing it.

^This source was clearly sourced from the actual reliable one, found on BBC's Media Centre website here. See how the unsupported info is slipped in at the end then?

So be very careful! Cultfix is not a source! By what we see it is run sloppily and is not worthy of using as a source for our information! We must be crystal cut accurate!

Thank you.
