Karek (talk | contribs | UDWiki contribs | vndl data)

Karek has been here, well, forever and has proved himself an excellent sysop in the past. His contributions rate has increased markedly of late, and doesn't show any signs of dropping off, and when asked on his talk page he showed a general interest in the idea -- boxy 03:58, 24 April 2011 (BST)

Yeah, I'm ok with this. --Karek^{maps 2.0?!} 04:42, 24 April 2011 (BST)

Autovouch - Karek has a good technical knowledge, and understanding of the wiki and how it should work -- boxy 03:58, 24 April 2011 (BST)
Vouch - He voted against repealing my permaban, so he's probably right about a lot of other stuff, too.. -- Amazing?! 04:21, 24 April 2011 (BST)
Against - The thought of him with admin rights given his past performance makes me gloomy User:teehee mcgee 12:07, 24 April 2011 (PST)
Against - this vote is a filibuster – Nubis ^NWO 04:29, 24 April 2011 (BST)
also, WIKI LAW – Nubis ^NWO 04:50, 24 April 2011 (BST)
thankfully it's not a vote. but you and your meatpuppets sure are adorable with ya matching templates-- bitch 12:20, 26 April 2011 (UTC)
a bloo bloo bloo – Nubis ^NWO 12:45, 26 April 2011 (BST)
Against - I am not confident in his ability to remain impartial and fair. Especially when taking into account the above vouch by amazing. -- DeRathi 1:30pm 24 April 2011 (AEST
Against - For reasons which, in accordance with federal WIKI LAW, I am not allowed to discuss publicly.--ебут этом гомосексуальные земля́, ebut ėtom gomoseksual'nye zemlя́ ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||_{Retarded things go here -->} 2 3 4 User:MisterGame 04:38, 24 April 2011 (BST)
I must admit, I'm horrible at WIKI LAW, I never autobanned goons. --Karek^{maps 2.0?!} 04:42, 24 April 2011 (BST)
That won't win you points with the Old Boys' Club, given how all the other admin staff feel about goons around here. -- DeRathi 1:51pm 24 April 2011 (AEST)
If anything he just proved that he doesn't deserve to be an enforcer of High-WIKI LAW. It's nothing personal, but some people just aren't cut out to sperg and enforce the WIKI LAW the best of them. You're still extremely ANIME uguuuuu~ though. So there's that.--ебут этом гомосексуальные земля́, ebut ėtom gomoseksual'nye zemlя́ ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||_{Retarded things go here -->} 2 3 4 User:MisterGame 05:00, 24 April 2011 (BST)
Against - Can't trust a guy who doesn't autoban goons. Or who does, I forget which. Either way WIKI LAW --Laughing Man 04:48, 24 April 2011 (BST)
Against - Wiki is bad enough without adding partisan admins --Pleads 04:53, 24 April 2011 (BST)
Against - WIKI LAW has spoken. --SprCobra 04:55, 24 April 2011 (BST)
Against - I am afraid I have to concede to the highest law in the land (it's WIKI LAW) and say no to this travesty of justice. --カシュー, ザゾンビクィーン (ビープビープ) @ 05:02, 24 April 2011 (BST)
Against - "You have been warned for illegally striking votes on a discussion. Kindly refrain from doing so in future until there is a policy that permits it. Until then all peoples opinions are weighted equally and worthy of being heard." I must also concede to the law commemorated in bombastic black text. --Lex Lotor 05:14, 24 April 2011 (BST)
Against - Karek has been holding this internet browser game wiki back for too long. I think that it's time for him to step aside. --Anothergenericzombie 05:19, 24 April 2011 (BST)
vouch - we had a rocky start but even if there was animosity between us it'd still be nullified by the amount of work he is doing and help he's doing. -- ϑ^anceϑ^ance ℜ^evolution 05:33, 24 April 2011 (BST)
Vouch no brainer. should almost have a perma sysop staus like boxy.-- bitch 05:54, 24 April 2011 (nyc rulez!)
Vouch - Dude's been active and been a real help around the wiki for some months since becoming active again. ~ _{07:28, 24 April 2011}
Against - We can't just let every Tetsuo, Daikatana and Sephiroth enter the highest ranks of leadership; the integrity of this wiki is too important for that. --甘いノーム愛感覚的の私の型板!!! 09:22, 24 April 2011 (BST)
Vouch - ~~Concerns re: impartiality~~ Less bad than the majority of sysops --عبد الريحم بن حسين بن عبد الرحمن العراقي المصري‎ 18:03, 5 May 2011 (BST)
Against - You're a loose cannon, turn in your badge and submit to WIKI LAW. --Bender Bending Rodriguez 19:38, 24 April 2011 (BST)
Against - Just because you've been editing lots of pages doesn't mean that transgressions against WIKI LAW should be swept under the rug. --Djohariah 11:05, 24 April 2011 (BST)
Vouch - Always a great help back in the day, not afraid to offer opinions. If he's stupid enough (kidding!) to want to be a sysop again, why not? Linkthewindow Talk 11:16, 24 April 2011 (BST)
Vouch - Yarp. -- C h e e s e 11:19, 24 April 2011 (BST)
Against - The WIKI LAW is too strong with this one. --Deadone 12:24, 24 April 2011 (BST)
Against - Good lord, the WIKI LAW. This won't do at all, no sir. --モッズはホモです 12:53, 24 April 2011 (BST)
Question - How do you respond to the above 'concerns' about your impartiality?--Yonnua Koponen^{T G}^P ^^^ 13:58, 24 April 2011 (BST)
Since Karek doesn't seem to be able to answer a simple question, which he could have done by saying "I Don't Care what they think" then he clearly doesn't have the capacity to be a system operator. ~~Against~~ --Yonnua Koponen^{T G}^P ^^^ 15:25, 30 April 2011 (BST)
Vouch - My question's been answered on Karke's talk page. I am most satisfied with the response.--Yonnua Koponen^{T G}^P ^^^ 14:50, 1 May 2011 (BST)
Vouch - Who can say no to a man with bells. ♥ Moonie ^{Talk Testimonials} 14:08, 24 April 2011 (BST)
Vouch - If it means no more backseat sysoping from God's Gift To The Wiki, sure.--

| T | BALLS! | 14:16 24 April 2011(UTC)
Vouch Sure. Smyg 14:17, 24 April 2011 (BST)
Vouch - In accordance with the prophecy --THE Godfather of Яesensitized, Anime Sucks^{Yalk | W! U! WMM| CC CPFOAS LOE ZHU | Яezzens} 15:50, 24 April 2011 (BST)
Vouch - Karek is a ~~secret~~ member of our ruin the wiki club. --Karloth Vois ^¯\(°_o)/¯ 16:15, 24 April 2011 (BST)
Vouch - The jingle of a dog's collar would be good right here. --Akbar 16:33, 24 April 2011 (BST)
Vouch - because I'm tired of doing all the deleting, moving and other admin stuff he constantly requests myself :P Seriously, though, Karek's not just extremely tech-savvy, he also has made a strong return with a lot of behind-the-background gnomeing. As an additional (though weaker) plus, he also isn't afraid to have an unpopular stance and stick with it on the opinion pages. -- Spiderzed █ 16:38, 24 April 2011 (BST)
Vouch - Cause someone with that much un-support must me good--^TCAPD(╯°□°)╯ ┻━┻ 17:16, 24 April 2011 (BST)
Vouch - Good technical user. Reasonable. Kinda has an odd writing style. -- AHLG T G THE END IS NIGH! 17:19, 24 April 2011 (BST)
<math>*Against - This man does not approve of the Shotokan arts, I am thus unable to support him.</math> User:Ryu
Vouch - Three cheers for Karek! --Desyana 06:29, 25 April 2011 (BST)
Vouch - As Moonie --Fiffy ⁴⁰⁴ ^♥ ^OBR ^♥ ^RRF 06:40, 25 April 2011 (BST)
Against - No Go, Houston we have a problem, we have a failure in WIKI LAW unit 3 --Vaporware 15:34, 25 April 2011 (BST).
Vouch - --^A_O^R_D^M_O^P_R^I_!^T 16:33, 25 April 2011 (BST)
Against - Questionable conduct. --Susan Bakersfield 18:34, 25 April 2011 (BST)
Vouch - WIKI LAW oh lookie, am i doing it right ? --People's Commissar Hagnat ^{[talk] [wcdz]} 20:20, 25 April 2011 (BST)
Vouch - He has a VERY strong technical background, and, in IRC conversations with him, I've seen that he's over my head on some or a lot of the technical know-how related to the wiki (which is kinda nice, since Rooster was the last regular who frequently did technical things I didn't always understand at a glance). He's not afraid to disagree when it needs to be done, but he doesn't do it just for the sake of doing it. I have a few things I'm not sure about, but none so worrying that they would lessen the strength of my vouch. Adding him to the team would be a good thing. —Aich on— 21:07, 25 April 2011 (BST)
Against - Vouch by Amazing says it all really. - Rotting TRex 04:50, 26 April 2011 (BST)
Against The WIKI LAW has spoken. - ShufflesMcgee 04:57, 26 April 2011 (BST)
Against - Questionable impartiality. --Polymphus 06:50, 26 April 2011 (BST)
Against - I've been looking through his past edits and I'm not at all happy about his work. --Fartibartslart 07:49, 26 April 2011 (BST)
Against - Karak has been found barricaded inside a building that was too heavily barricaded for the local barricade policy in effect. If this sort of oversight is how he operates inside Malton then I think it reflects poorly on his suitability for being an administrator on Malton's favourite wiki. --Blagomatic 07:59, 26 April 2011 (BST)
Against - Someone's got to put this dog down. --MrGreenshirt 08:13, 26 April 2011 (BST)
Against - WIKI LAW is no toy. --Kruger 08:40, 26 April 2011 (BST)
Against WIKI LAW} --Colbear 10:26, 26 April 2011 (BST)
Vouch - I'm actually for Karek. I got along with him fine when I was DCC the first time and when I was Nubis. He was the voice of reason when Grim ranted on and I think he was against the nailgun, too. That's enough for me! -- #99 ^DCC 13:44, 26 April 2011 (BST)
Something about laws and wikis.--If my name was MisterGame AKA Thadeous Oakley, I would be a massive flaming faggot. >:| 10:19, 27 April 2011 (BST)

Vouch - --Ash^{| T | яя |} 02:59, 28 April 2011 (BST)
Question - What's the most important issue on this wiki right now and how does it need to be addressed, in your opinion? -- Thadeous Oakley Talk 15:29, 30 April 2011 (BST)
Vouch - While I don't always agree with him, I respect his opinion and technical ability; he can be trusted with the tools.--The General ^{T Sys U! P! F!} 12:34, 1 May 2011 (BST)
Abstain This would be a VOUCH except that I doubt his sanity in wanting to come back. --Honestmistake 15:02, 1 May 2011 (BST)
Vouch - As Michaleson. --Johncleese 20:25, 1 May 2011 (BST)
Vouch - Is at least waaaaay less of a clown than the clowns currently doing the job. --Rise||||||||||||||||above 03:39, 2 May 2011 (BST)
Vouch I recognize my own bias, but considering that he was the first and only person to speak up and directly contest my hastily executed infinite ban, he seems to be a pretty awesome guy. --Deadman Walken 07:41, 3 May 2011 (BST)
Vouch Previous experience.--ShadowScope^{'the true enemy'} 00:55, 5 May 2011 (BST)
Vouch - when did he got demoted ? --People's Commissar Hagnat ^{[talk] [wcdz]} 14:01, 5 May 2011 (BST) vote struck. you can't ~~vote~~ vouch twice hagz! -- bitch 15:00, 5 May 2011 (utc)
