UDWiki talk:Administration/Arbitration/Cyberbob, Sexylegsread and DanceDanceRevolution vs 2 Cool

Origin of the Case

As per this case groups are not allowed to include people/other groups on their pages that do not wish to be there. J3D has listed the three of us on his group's "fan club page without our permission, and in my case adding a rather insulting comment to my entry besides.

Remove plz. Cyberbob  Talk  09:13, 3 September 2009 (BST)

Will not participate in this until Nick is included. The page in question belongs in equal parts to him and i would not feel comfortable discussing what should and should not be included on it without his involvement.--xoxo 09:15, 3 September 2009 (BST)

You know. I'm actually going to offer to arbitrate, it's been a while but I'm pretty sure I still know how to do it. --Karek^maps?! 09:18, 3 September 2009 (BST)

I'll accept you if Read and DDR will. Cyberbob  Talk  09:25, 3 September 2009 (BST)

I'll accept anyone that Cyberbob himself accepts. --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 09:36, 3 September 2009 (BST)

I will only accept Zombie Lord--CyberRead240 19:00, 3 September 2009 (BST)

I thought you might pull this shit. Cyberbob  Talk  00:18, 4 September 2009 (BST)

How about me? I smell nice and I have a large cupboard filled with fridge magnets Note:One or more of the previous statements may be complete fabrications. -- Cheese 00:22, 4 September 2009 (BST)

OK, Shakey60, Scurley7, karek, GomerPyle41, Iscariot, Finis and Buzz Killington are the only people I agree to. And Cheese.--CyberRead240 00:42, 4 September 2009 (BST)

I'll offer to arbitrate too. To bad the chance that Bob takes up my offer is smaller then his groin --Thadeous Oakley 21:21, 4 September 2009 (BST)

Also offering to arbitrate.--Yonnua Koponen ^{Talk ! Contribs} 21:22, 4 September 2009 (BST)

Oh, by the way, he said in that list that he accepts Karek as arbitrator.--Yonnua Koponen ^{Talk ! Contribs} 21:24, 4 September 2009 (BST)

We're just waiting on J3D and Nick to chime in on their choice of arbitrator. Also Thad: this case is pretty open-and-shut so I wouldn't have had a problem with picking you. Cyberbob  Talk  01:00, 5 September 2009 (BST)

Ahhhhh, love you too Bob. --Thadeous Oakley 10:48, 5 September 2009 (BST)

I acknowledge this case. --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 09:23, 3 September 2009 (BST)

Also acknowledge, still tossing up (off) abitrator selection--CyberRead240 10:37, 3 September 2009 (BST)

Thad or Karek is fine, Nick, SLR? --xoxo 04:15, 5 September 2009 (BST)

I'll have thad too if he is on offer--CyberRead240 04:30, 5 September 2009 (BST)

Thad would be lovely! ;) ;) ;) ;) :| --Nallan (Talk) 09:54, 5 September 2009 (BST)

I didn't expect this, honestly. I'm still waiting for someone to tell me it's all a joke, but if serious, I would certainly be prepared to be the arby of this case. --Thadeous Oakley 10:48, 5 September 2009 (BST)

A key factor in picking an arbitrator is how much they know and understand the applicable Arby precedents. Because this is a pretty straightforward case -- assuming you work with the precedents. --WanYao 20:55, 5 September 2009 (BST)

I agree to Wan.--xoxo 08:44, 6 September 2009 (BST)

Do you still agree to Thad or Karek though? Cyberbob  Talk  08:50, 6 September 2009 (BST)

I'm not not licking toads! --xoxo 09:00, 6 September 2009 (BST)

I didn't actually offer to Arbitrate. I don't wanna touch this. --WanYao 09:06, 6 September 2009 (BST)

I'm happy with letting you decide between Thad and Karek then Jed. I don't have a preference. Cyberbob  Talk  09:19, 6 September 2009 (BST)

Neither. DDR/read/nick, decide.--xoxo 09:30, 6 September 2009 (BST)

I want thad.--Nallan (Talk) 09:38, 6 September 2009 (BST)

Ill say who I want but you'll have to crack the code!!! First clue is : dahT. See if you can pick it!--CyberRead240 09:47, 10 September 2009 (BST)

I reject thad. I'd prefer Karke. --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 09:49, 10 September 2009 (BST)

Bawwww....D;--Thadeous Oakley 22:33, 10 September 2009 (BST)

I've actually given it some thought and changed my mind. I accept you. --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 00:19, 11 September 2009 (BST)

Right, the involved parties have accepted me as arby. Time to get this case started, and hopefully, working this out.--Thadeous Oakley 22:54, 11 September 2009 (BST)

Holy Shit

Standing-O for that opening, DDR. Take a damn bow!--SirArgo ^Talk 15:45, 12 September 2009 (BST)

MisterGame

You do realise that this was an open and shut case before it began, right? There's actually no reason to hear arguments regarding this. I wonder if you realise this? -- . . <== DDR Approved Editor 17:51, 12 September 2009 (BST)

Let him have his fun.--Yonnua Koponen ^{Talk ! Contribs} 18:17, 12 September 2009 (BST)

Yeah, if it were my first time I'd be doing things "by the books" too. There's no particular rush about this case anyway, and I'm sure DDR enjoyed owning the hell out of 2 Cool - no harm no foul. Cyberbob  Talk  18:24, 12 September 2009 (BST)

You actually think you're going to win this one? No, seriously? Can I represent J3D? Pleeeeaaaase? -- . . <== DDR Approved Editor 18:28, 12 September 2009 (BST)

Wait - so when you say this is an open and shut case you mean that 2 Cool are pretty much guaranteed to win despite the precedence I've linked (I thought you loved precedence links?) as well as the obvious stupidity in allowing groups to list people as members of their fan clubs (or any other "organisation") against their wills? Cyberbob  Talk  18:31, 12 September 2009 (BST)

I do love precedence links, they allow users to look at the history of the community and learn our standards. Unfortunately, your link is inadmissible for the most obvious reason. I believe it was you yourself that made the relevant precedent back in the olden days. -- . . <== DDR Approved Editor 18:38, 12 September 2009 (BST)

No I think what he means is he's just come back to troll, and wants to look like as much of an ass as possible.--Yonnua Koponen ^{Talk ! Contribs} 18:33, 12 September 2009 (BST)

If I was trolling I know how to do it here. I'm back because there's now a genuine possibility of reforming this wiki into a useful and helpful game resource. This case, however, is humorous to the nth degree. -- . . <== DDR Approved Editor 18:38, 12 September 2009 (BST)

You're probably right. Cyberbob  Talk  18:35, 12 September 2009 (BST)

Attempt to respond number three, stops edit conflicting mes :'( -- . . <== DDR Approved Editor 18:38, 12 September 2009 (BST)

J3D has offered me the chance to represent 2 Cool in this arbitration on my talkpage. If all parties agree I will proceed and enter the case. -- . . <== DDR Approved Editor 01:38, 13 September 2009 (BST)

I do not. Cyberbob  Talk  01:50, 13 September 2009 (BST)

Do we get to know the reasons why you won't allow the opposing argument to be placed by another user? J3D states on my talk page that he is "busy atm", I'm just trying to move the case towards resolution, or would you rather this be dragged out until J3D has free time? It's Thad's first case, oh won't you think of poor Thad? -- . . <== DDR Approved Editor 01:53, 13 September 2009 (BST)

Sorry but I don't feel like feeding you today. Cyberbob  Talk  01:58, 13 September 2009 (BST)

Thadeous has had plenty of experience with elongated arbitration cases anyway *winks*. But seriously, this is a case created by Bob to accommodate the victims, us, and was spurred on by J3D, and to a lesser extent, Nallan. I wish for it to be dealt by both parties as they stand currently. You'll need Nallan's permission and he is in the process of moving to another country, so the case will be dragged out anyway. --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 10:38, 13 September 2009 (BST)

This is a dispute between Bob, DDR and Read vs J3D and Nick, no one else. I do not believe dragging other users in this is a good idea. And stop using my "inexperience" as some degenerate false argument. I haven't even made a ruling yet and already people think they know it better. Get off my back, because at this point I don't give 2 cents about how you would have done things--Thadeous Oakley 10:31, 13 September 2009 (BST)

fyi, jed and nick will be inactive on this wiki for about 5 months or so. Completely inactive, unless they decide to log on from some asian internet cafe. If we want this case to sit here for 5 months until they return, then great, if we want it to flow, let Iscariot talk for them, as jed requested. I'm happy with it, the case is pretty straightforward tbh, and honestly bob you know as well as I do what the outcome will be.--CyberRead240 11:08, 13 September 2009 (BST)

Jed's been posting constantly elsewhere on the wiki over the past few days. If he can't get something written up before he goes then that's his problem and I would ask Thad to simply rule then and there. Nick is a different story as he has been inactive, but with jed's input his is unnecessary because they're both equals within 2 Cool. Cyberbob  Talk  07:45, 14 September 2009 (BST)

Jed's also more important to the case, as he is the one who added your names to the list.--Yonnua Koponen ^{Talk ! Contribs} 07:49, 14 September 2009 (BST)

Jed and Nick are also in the exact same place in the exact same time within now and the immediate future, so there is no reason why they both shouldn't be able to whip up an argument for the sake of the case. --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 07:53, 14 September 2009 (BST)

Bob, that is because they only left Australia this morning, and they were on the net at the airport aswell while waiting for a flight/waiting to be picked up. It wouldn't surprise me if they go inactive for a while coz they didnt actually touch down overseas until mid afternoon today. And Charlie, they are on a huge once in a lifetime holiday doing some backpacking, if they don't get together and figure out an arbies rebuttal I don't think we should hold it against them, I imagine they are doing more enjoyable things. I'm sure they will edit if they have the time, they love the drama.--CyberRead240 15:44, 14 September 2009 (BST)

Charlie? Who the hell is Charlie? O.o --Yonnua Koponen ^{Talk ! Contribs} 15:47, 14 September 2009 (BST)

Got it, it's DDR.--Yonnua Koponen ^{Talk ! Contribs} 15:47, 14 September 2009 (BST)

*grumbles about how if he were on the moon he would still go on udwiki to talk about it* --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 15:48, 14 September 2009 (BST)

Quite Annoyed

I missed this. I'd have been first out of the blocks to arbie. Any chance we can tack on a "Lose the Caunt Jokes" Rider? --Rosslessness^{Want a Location Image?} 01:39, 17 September 2009 (BST)

You would have some battle to face.... They even make them IRL... <=[ --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 02:21, 17 September 2009 (BST)

fuck 2 Cool are super effective sometimes.--CyberRead240 11:30, 17 September 2009 (BST)

Closure

It's been over a month and 2 Cool haven't presented a case for either the initial A/A case or the one they've forced upon Read. I think something should be done, Thad. --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 06:55, 14 October 2009 (BST)

Yup. Cyberbob  Talk  07:37, 14 October 2009 (BST)

What'd i say about keeping you nose out? Despite your assurances you seem quite incapable.--xoxo 16:09, 16 October 2009 (BST)

What did we say about keeping your nose in, you fucking philistine? Your stalling of the case is pathetic in every manner of the word. --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 16:16, 16 October 2009 (BST)

Mmmm racism, you really don't like that image of yours anymore do you? --xoxo 16:21, 16 October 2009 (BST)

Racism is your department. There are two definitions for philistine. Considering it wasn't capitalised, you can assume it wasn't the racist one. --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 17:09, 16 October 2009 (BST)

Honestly man what did you expect when you brought forward the case?--Nallan (Talk) 16:22, 16 October 2009 (BST)

Honestly man would you still expect us to react any differently? --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 17:09, 16 October 2009 (BST)

It was you, read and bob against me and jed - it was never going to go anywhere, and you knew it. The case was pathetic, stalling was inevitable.--Nallan (Talk) 17:18, 16 October 2009 (BST)

You do understand that there was nothing else we could have done? Arbies is designed for this exact sort of thing? --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 04:11, 18 October 2009 (BST)

Response

Sorry for inactivity regarding this case, you may or may not have noticed I haven't been around here as much as usual for quite some time now. I'm going to make a sort of ruling soon, probably tonight. Without looking like a hypocrite myself due a past case, it seems some people here are deliberately trying to stall and dramatize this. Still, that's their choice, and I won't make a decision in favor of a certain party because of it. And, as I think of it, it's mostly my fault this got so far, as I simply tolerated it (stalling, drama) by not adequately stepping in. Partly because I'm a bit inactive, mainly because the case in essence is just a small dispute which nobody, apart the involved parties, cares about.

Again, my apologies for the inconvenience. --Thadeous Oakley 19:39, 16 October 2009 (BST)

As long as you don't rule in favour of read, that all sounds good.--xoxo 05:49, 17 October 2009 (BST)

As I am the only person left in this case, I really feel as if the 2 Cool Fan Club, (that is if it is to be a true FAN club) should be created and moderated by actual fans of 2 Cool, not by 2 Cool themselves. Now, when we click on the profile of the only 2 Cool fan member who is legitimately eligible, his group name actually isnt "2 COOL ROX MAH FUCCKIIINN SOOXXXXX" , it is "the only member of the 2 cool fan club". Because of this, he doesnt fall under the criteria to be in the fan club, and is thus NOT in the fan club, therefore there is nobody who is actually in the fan club, therefore the page is useless and should be deleted, only to be recreated by an actual fan, if there is any.

Note, if Eugene McWalters group name changes to the correct name, then we know that it is Nick and Jed controlling the account to make their own fan club members.--CyberRead240 06:08, 17 October 2009 (BST)

DDR and I are still in the case by virtue of the creation of that Hate Club thing; although it isn't the specific page mentioned at the beginning of the case it is still highly related. A ruling on the Fan Club page is pretty much by default going to affect the Hate Club. Cyberbob  Talk  04:23, 18 October 2009 (BST)

Feel free to go ahead and make a page in your userspace or the mainspace for the 2 cool fan club if you like read. And its neither of us, so you're aware.--xoxo 06:16, 18 October 2009 (BST)
