From what I gather from the description, there is 1 (one) problem you have with that tutorial - the damaging particle stays instead of being dissolved ('cause the appearence, rate, etc. of TWNK1 is totally independent from this tutorial). Labeling it "a crock of shite" because of this one issue is way over the top, imo.
In addition, you basically tell us it works just as it should, except for the not-dissolving part. So not only is the "Needs Testing" header not warranted because it works as coded, but you're actually reporting your experiences with this technique - so obviously you did test it. And if it was tested, it doesn't need testing anymore.
Since dissolving gas particles are most definately not impossible, I suppose this is merely a question of particle code, not general "wrongness" of the tutorial. It should be easy to fix. I'll remove the template and add a warning regarding the dissolving.
