::::RunService creates a new service, which you must do in order to create the service. This is what I thought we were referencing as opposed to "Instance.new", which will not work with a Service.

One big flaw
"you have to call it with ..."
'...' is nothing. Wouldn't our viewers want to know what to call it with? --Blocco 21:19, 14 April 2010 (UTC)
- That better? ---Mr Doom Bringer 20:01, 16 April 2010 (UTC)
- Yeah. Thanks. --Blocco 20:36, 16 April 2010 (UTC)

Stop Capitalizing the First Letter of Words in Links
Considering this page is protected for some weird reason no reason at all, can an editor edit the link to not use uppercase for the first letter of the words in the 'Game Service' link? Also, I think "or as a child of game" should be reworded into "or as a child of the game".
