Krazy Monkey

Boing, cheese's turn. --

Right, I'd completely forgotten I was due again. =p Thought it wasn't for another couple of months. In any case, I've been sysoping for about 2 and a bit years now and I know my way about. Admittedly I've been pretty inactive for the past while but this was mostly due to a mountain of uni coursework and now that Uni is all but done for this year, I have another summer of epic free time to kill on this place again. Yay.

One of the things I aim to improve on are, as has been noted by both DDR and Mis below, my sometimes rash instant rulings on VB cases. Looking over these cases I do see where I have gone wrong and I'll do my best to learn from these mistakes and try not to repeat them in future.

Aside from that, I leave it up to you guys to decide if you still want me kicking about. =) Ta muchlies. -- Cheese 16:27, 13 May 2010 (BST)

• Vouch Been here for ages, and still an asset to the team. He should try to be a bit more active though.--Thadeous Oakley 11:02, 13 May 2010 (BST)
• Vouch Re-evaluate the cunt.--_GANG Giles Sednik _CAPD 11:14, 13 May 2010 (BST)

  Yes, that is what we're doing right now. --Thadeous Oakley 22:38, 19 May 2010 (BST)

• Abstain/Weak Against - I'm more or less going to abstain, after weighing a couple of things. Cheese used to be a good op, and tends to keep that up when he's active and consistently giving input on the wiki. However, he hasn't been at his best for almost a year, since his last A/RE he's made about 30 edits a month which nowadays, as a sysop, I think is pretty poor (the average is oft in the hundreds), but at leased Cheese's are of respectable tasks unlike Conndraka. Basically, I don't think Cheese is a bad op, which is probably the only reason this isn't an against, I would love for him to be around more, but the fact that I've already been forced to compare him to Conndraka is really frightening in itself. --

  Honestly, if you take anything with you from my input cheese, for the love of all fucking things holy, please stop insta-ruling on A/VB cases that are not only not-open-and-shut, but are blatantly the opposite of what you vote. The first one was a joke which I could only attribute to someone just bandwagoning along with the escalations ZL had been gaining the days before, and the latter case would indicate you were out of touch, but luckily the entire sysop team (bar boxy) didn't know what to do either. I don't mind if you are demoted or kept in this bid, just please, please stop doing that. Even if you think you're 100% right, don't. Good, I'm done. --

• Vouch. Several recent actions and initiatives convince me that he is a great addition to the SysOp team. If this re-evaluation was not approved, I believe it would be a not-insignificant loss for the wiki. G F J 11:57, 13 May 2010 (BST)

  I just thought I'd let you know that these "recent actions" he's done in the last 2 weeks constitute 20% of his total edits for the last 10 months. He just quadrippled his edit-output than the rate at which he normally does, in the two weeks before this. I don't mind people vouching for Cheese but your reasons mean you're perfectly happy with allowing another general in. That didn't go well, to say the least. --

  Yes, you are correct about the inactivity, and this is indeed something that he should improve. Comparing Krazy Monkey's edits to those from The General is too radical, however - there's still a difference in my opinion, and while I'm vouching for Krazy Monkey I did vote against The General. I agree with you that Krazy Monkey's activity is not too great and "improvable", but nevertheless I prefer to have these contributions and SysOp-activities than none at all because I'm not convinced that the issues he raised would have been raised without him as well. But he should certainly keep up the edit rate displayed in the last weeks, and should take the fact that many people here will probably comment on his activity as a warning that if he does not do so, the next re-evaluation could very well be like The General's. G F J 12:41, 13 May 2010 (BST)

  Fair enough. I just think the problem is that the 'activity before a/re' trend is the same and no op has ever proved me otherwise, and I don't think Cheese will be the first, considering he did the same thing last time too. --

  To be honest I'd completely forgotten I was due up for one of these. The main reason I've been much more active is because Uni's winding up for the year and I've got an insane amount of free time again. =D -- Cheese 16:27, 13 May 2010 (BST)

• Againt - As has been pointed out, Cheese is prone to jumping the gun on A/VB - which is easily overlooked should he be more active, and thus explainable as a mistake made in amongst a lot of other wiki work, but when your few contributions involve excalating users without due consideration, then leaving others to fix it, I'd find it better for the team if you didn't have that option. 13:06, 13 May 2010 (BST)
• Vouch - Not the most active guy around, but it's not like he's hurting anything. --VVV ^RPMBG 16:41, 13 May 2010 (BST)
• Question - What led to your inactivity, and is it likely to repeat itself anytime soon?--Yonnua Koponen ^{Talk ! Contribs} 17:14, 13 May 2010 (BST)

  Uni work mostly. Had a lot more than I thought this past few months but like I mentioned I'm effectively done for the summer and I won't be back at uni till October so I should be pretty active till at least then and hopefully beyond that but I'll deal with that hurdle when I reach it. -- Cheese 17:19, 13 May 2010 (BST)

  Sorry, time for a Follow-up Question - How many edits do you think a sysop needs to be making a month to be up to date with current wiki issues?--Yonnua Koponen ^{Talk ! Contribs} 17:50, 13 May 2010 (BST)

  Well I think DDR pointed out I made about 30 edits a month over the past while which is a bit crap. I would say at least a hundred or so a month but quality is always better than quantity. -- Cheese 13:52, 15 May 2010 (BST)

  I agree, and so I'll give a Weak Vouch, providing you stay active.--Yonnua Koponen ^{Talk ! Contribs} 16:20, 15 May 2010 (BST)

• Weak Vouch - When he's active, he's useful, but when he's out of touch, his opinions can seem like they come out of left field a bit. Still though, I trust him more than The General to be around, and the mistakes he makes are easier to notice and correct. That he says he'll be around this summer is reason enough for me to give him another go. —Aichon— 19:45, 13 May 2010 (BST)
• Vouch - as long as he doesn't jump the gun on A/VB. --^A_O^R_D^M_O^P_R^I _! ^T 21:10, 13 May 2010 (BST)
• Vouch - He promises to rectify his wrongs and hasen't done anything partically wrong. Plus cheese is tasty.--^TCAPD(╯°□°)╯ ┻━┻ 17:14, 14 May 2010 (BST)
• Vouch - Only on the condition you coup the wiki, bring Grim back, and delete Misgorthropy. --Sonny Corleone ^{DORIS I jizzed in my pants pr0n} 03:54, 15 May 2010 (BST)

  Against - Removed Woot's sysop vote despite having 3 vouches. Shows he's a faggot. --Sonny Corleone ^{DORIS I jizzed in my pants pr0n} 20:02, 19 May 2010 (BST)

• Vouch - As Yonnua and Aichon. --Maverick ^{Talk - OBR 404} 20:45, 16 May 2010 (BST)
• Vouch Has done a pretty decent job.... having said that i actually agree with Sonny (GodHelpMe!!!) and hope to see a move towards Cheesy Overlordship! --Honestmistake 02:37, 17 May 2010 (BST)
• Weak vouch -- There is much legitimacy to the critiques made above -- you need take them very seriously, cheese -- however, in the big picture I think the sysop team is stronger with him than without him. --WanYao 10:14, 18 May 2010 (BST)
• Vouch -- why not.. give him the chance to prove himself again.. he has done lots of good work.----sexualharrison ¯\()/¯ 02:48, 21 May 2010 (BST)

Kept - after a short consultation with Ross, Cheese has retained his sysop position, however he'd be well advised to take the criticism above on board -- boxy ^{talk • teh rulz} 06:49 21 May 2010 (BST)

Yip. --Rosslessness^{Want a Location Image?} 09:39, 21 May 2010 (BST)
