  • Comment: The page "Fragger" was deleted 4 times for either being about a completely different topic ("Someone who frags), or for being a horrible stub about this game. None of the previous iterations had anything to do with me. Unfortunately, the title "Fragger" has been salted so I was advised to create a draft and go through AFC.The page will have to be unsalted before this draft can end up there. :) Coin945 (talk) 14:32, 7 October 2014 (UTC)
