The Talk Page of Iscariot

By posting here you agree to and accept the following rules.

The Rules:

1. Post new comments at the top using a level 2 header.
2. Post all comments in correct English and grammar. This means real English, not the bastardised forms from the colonies.
3. You will not be a moron. Seriously, you're supposed to be a human being, act like it here please.
4. You will sign your posts in the conventional manner, this means with your own signature and with a datestamp. Templated signatures may be used without restriction provided they do not negatively impact the operation of this page.
5. Zergers have no right to post in my userspace. Any edits made by users who have characters on the Resensistised Zerg Liste may be removed by any user.
6. Using the "+" button is not a good idea. I hate scrolling to the bottom of the page (talk pages get very long) and your reply will be ignored on principle. If my attention is required for something or is a procedural message, kindly place it at the top of the page in accordance with rule 1.

These rules apply without exception to any page in my userspace, that's any page that begins User:Iscariot or User talk:Iscariot. This means you shouldn't go hunting for other pages to just be annoying.

Settling it once and for all

User:Aichon/Other/Iscariot's Vandal Data. The name of the link says it all. Unlike the others, I am asking for your input, since if there's going to be anyone that objects, it's going to be you. I'm gonna try and contact all of the sysops and former sysops who are still active around here and have been involved with his data or might have an interest in it. Even if I miss a few, I figure enough people check all of your pages that most people who need to see the link will see it. ;) Aichon 01:30, 21 April 2010 (BST)

I know the correct state of my vandal data. That is not the point of contention. The fact is that Boxy was allowed to falsify my data without providing a single iota of proof or even reasoning. There was no "This should have been de-escalated due to linked contributions here", no "Due to X contibutions from here to here, I've de-escalated to following" and certainly no "This is the amount of time to be taken off future bans due to being served incorrectly". Tell me Aichon, how much ban time do I have in hand? Didn't think you'd know, because despite asking DDR, Bob and shockingly Boxy multiple times to put the note on the page, nothing was done. Tell me again where they were showing good faith there.
Until Boxy is forthcoming with this basic list of why he falsified my vandal data I see no point in entertaining any further debate on the subject, I'm not the one at fault here, common courtesy dictates that this explanation should be provided, but no-one else seems concerned by his behaviour. I view any further pages on it to be attack pages against me and concerned with covering Boxy rather than getting the basic facts that should have been provided by him so long ago. -- To know the face of God is to know madness....Praise knowledge! Mischief! Mayhem! The Rogues Gallery!. <== DDR Approved Editor 09:51, 21 April 2010 (BST)
*Sigh* You didn't even read it first, otherwise you wouldn't be asking those rhetorical questions. Truthfully. Honestly? That stings. I put in a lot of work, and to have it not even glanced at before being blown off...
If you check the page, you should see that I do provide an answer for how much ban time is theoretically due to you (9 days, 7 hours, 1 minute if you'd like to know, and yes, I counted every minute of it and documented where it came from), I do link every single group of 250 edits following your escalations so that de-escalations can be verified, I do provide explanations for what your data should be (probably 10,000+ characters on that subject alone), and it's not a matter that I'm bringing up for the sake of debate.
I'm not opening up a discussion where we're going to hash it all out. I'm presenting an answer to the question of what it should have been all along. Whether or not Boxy falsified data...that argument is tangential and unimportant in the context of what I've written up, and shouldn't stop the truth from coming out, especially so when I'm handing it to you on a silver platter. I didn't create an argument to prove you or anyone else wrong. What I did was set out to find out the truth about the matter, and I believe very strongly that I have succeeded. I'm inviting you to look over my findings, and as I said in my promotion nomination, I'm not interested in playing politics. I'm here to do a job, I did it here, and I did a damn fine job, if I do say so. I'm not expecting a thank you by any means, but I am looking for people who were around at the time to fact check me.
So please, as a courtesy to me, would you look it over? I spent quite a few hours documenting everything after I had completed my research, and it should only take a few minutes to read through. The end result is favorable for you, but not because I planned it that way or was trying to appease you; it's favorable to you because that's what the evidence shows is the correct course of events, and I've documented it each step of the way.

Ross is correct. Half the measures that have been forwarded in that case are entirely unenforceable, except by the most biased of sysops.

The deletions and VB things are stupid, which is why I said talks. Is there really no way to bring a ban on creating arbies cases? :o --Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 20:48, 12 April 2010 (BST)
Look at it the other way. What is the source of all the cases? Is there a mechanism to somehow stop one party from being antagonised? --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 20:52, 12 April 2010 (BST)
Not really. The arbitration system is there to settle disputes, by barring him from participating there (in any capacity since you can't offer to arbitrate from a talk page) you force him to use edit wars, vandalism and other admin pages to settle his disputes. Completely undermining the whole point of the page and creating drama elsewhere on the wiki. You might look to the legal system for inspiration, certain lawyers, I'm thinking Thompson here, have been forced to have their submissions and cases countersigned by another member of the bar before being entered. Perhaps ban him from creating cases that a designated volunteer hasn't looked over and given permission on his talk page first for a month. That should solve it.
Your 'all admin pages' ban is ridiculous as it prevents participation in policy debates and sysop and crat elections. -- To know the face of God is to know madness....Praise knowledge! Mischief! Mayhem! The Rogues Gallery!. <== DDR Approved Editor 20:54, 12 April 2010 (BST)

I never intended to block him from votes, merely extended discussion where there doesn't need to be. Do you mean a specific volunteer, or a person at the time? If you mean a specified volunteer, would you volunteer?--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 20:57, 12 April 2010 (BST)
It'll have to be a specific volunteer, otherwise any windowlicker could authorise his cases for teh lulz. No I'm not volunteering, as I am involved in an ongoing arbitration with him it would be a conflict of interest to audit his cases. -- To know the face of God is to know madness....Praise knowledge!

A Favor

I was wondering if you might share the source or artist of the paintings on your site? They are spectacular and remind me of the Dune novels by Frank Herbert. Thanks, Regards---Belisarius17 14:32, 31 March 2010 (BST)

They're supposed to remind you of Dune, since that's what they're of. They all came from random places on the internet years ago. If you let me know which image(s) in particular I'll check my image archives and see if I can use the original file names to find out for you. -- To know the face of God is to know madness....Praise knowledge! Mischief! Mayhem! The Rogues Gallery!. <== DDR Approved Editor 14:36, 31 March 2010 (BST)
Thank you very much, the image titled "He will not be found, yet all men will find him" is the one that stopped me cold. It reminded me of a line by T.E. Lawrence about needing the desert. It has been years since I have read those novels but the imagery stays with you. I think I will read them again. Thanks for having them up on your page and for checking on it. I appreciate it.--Belisarius17 15:13, 31 March 2010 (BST)
Using Google I find that I got the image from here and it's by this artist. -- To know the face of God is to know madness....Praise knowledge! Mischief! Mayhem! The Rogues Gallery!. <== DDR Approved Editor 15:40, 31 March 2010 (BST)

I swear I got there first

Having said that, I guess you aren't surprised by that. Thoughts, if I may? -- 13:01, 31 March 2010 (BST)
To be fair I was just going to wait another month and then change it over to yearly without asking anyone. With de-escalations also applied when someone gets escalated by a current case, de-escalations is going to see the same use as undeletions, we can always swap over to a quarterly or monthly system if there's a need.
Leave this month's admin archives to me, I'm going to document every step on that page and have a complete 'How To' guide for doing it since a lot of people don't know how to do it. -- To know the face of God is to know madness....Praise knowledge!

Removal of piece

Iscariot. You undid a removal of text by me on your group's talk page. Even though the text was written by me, i have learned that you have control over it. The issue is the following: members of my group have complained to me about the nature of the text, and i have agreed that it would be better if it was removed. I would like to ask you to remove my contribution here. --zyckde 01:56, 19 March 2010 (UTC)

Not able to do so old bean. Removing your contribution would mean that the contributions of those who responded to you would be nonsensical, that would be considered impersonation on this wiki and is subject to escalation. -- To know the face of God is to know madness....Praise knowledge! Mischief! Mayhem! The Rogues Gallery!. <== DDR Approved Editor 02:09, 19 March 2010 (UTC)
I agree with that principle. However, in this case it would be possible. The present responses in that section are about something else than my post, and they would not lose their meaning. --zyckde 02:14, 19 March 2010 (UTC)
Having looked over it again I concede that your logic is flawless, however it remains our policy to retain all edits to our pages until such time as we choose to archive them. Having been through a similar debate with someone less articulate recently, it would by hypocritical of me to alter our stance for this one case. Perhaps you'd care to post a response stating why you feel your early contribution does not accurately reflect your group's position and clarify the errors of the original piece that caused the opposition from your fellows? -- To know the face of God is to know madness....Praise knowledge! Mischief! Mayhem! The Rogues Gallery!. <== DDR Approved Editor 02:21, 19 March 2010 (UTC)
As a small note, I'd like to point out that it was actually DDR who undid your edit, not Iscariot. Aichon 16:47, 19 March 2010 (UTC)

Arbitration

Iscariot, I just wanted to ask if you have any parcels of wisdon to impart on this matter. I am woefully inexperienced and would welcome a little help. -Devorac 20:10, 18 March 2010 (UTC)

Yes. Follow the wonderful words of advice I shall now give you:
  1. Pick a competent arbitrator. Make sure he's someone without a history of antagonism against your cause and that he can demonstrate impartiality.
  2. Know your policies. Understand what can and can not be done on the wiki, don't allow someone to con you into believing something untrue.
  3. Win the case, not the big picture. Don't be drawn into minutiae. Focus on the original point of the case and argue that point from as many different angles as you need to defeat your opponent, any other arguments are a waste of time.
  4. When in doubt, go on the forum and shoot me a PM, I'll write your arguments for you if need be. To be fair I could win this game in two paragraphs, it's an easy one.

Regarding Suggestion

I sincerely hope you don't yell at me for this, but I'm just saying... becoming bloody from shooting someone isn't karma. In the same manner that becoming bloody from being shot isn't karma. It's anything but religious, that's for sure. I already said, I wasn't trying to punish PKers for shooting people. Most of them don't seem to care. Is Kevan punishing people who get shot for dying so much? I severely doubt that. I understand that you can't change your vote and you probably wouldn't change your vote if you could, but don't make stupid excuses and assumptions so you can fire off your spam cannon. Oh yeah, by the way, something's going on with your sig, I don't know if you meant it to do that or something. Just saying. --Enigmatalk 16:00, 13 March 2010 (UTC)

You said that it was an attempt to code karma in to the game in as many words on Talk:Suggestions, don't cry because we read what you've written and vote based on that. Also, my reasoning is valid, if you don't think so go contact a sysop and ask for the vote to be struck, I'll laugh greatly as you're told to fuck off. Understand I could have just written "Spam - Overpowered" and it would have been a valid vote, don't whine because I actually told you what I think of your idiot idea. -- To know the face of God is to know madness....Praise knowledge! Mischief! Mayhem! The Rogues Gallery!. <== DDR Approved Editor 17:03, 13 March 2010 (UTC)
In the developing suggestions, sure I may have joked that the guy who shot is a bastard, but in the final one there were no such words. I treated the bloodstains in a positive way, so your reasoning doesn't mean shit-all. I'm pretty sure you're supposed to vote on the suggestion, not the talk page. And I'm not going to the sysop to strike the vote, all it'll do is put it in Undecided instead of Rejected even if it does work, I'm just trying to tell you that you were a bigot. After all, on the discussion I also explained that I wasn't bringing in karma. --Enigmatalk 01:23, 14 March 2010 (UTC)

Archiving

Theoretically, a bot could be set up by Rooster, or someone with similar coding skill, but I don't really mind making the edits myself. I get a chance to see current events in all of the suburbs, as well as the general state of the map. Did you know, for example, that only four suburbs in Malton are red at the moment?--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 13:39, 10 March 2010 (UTC)

Yes, but only because I just got an update on it on my talk page....
I'm just thinking we start the groundwork now, then if you ever get bored/leave the wiki it's easier to instantly trigger the bot. In fact it'd be better to start it while you're still covering the task, then the errors made by the bot can be caught early. -- To know the face of God is to know madness....Praise knowledge! Mischief! Mayhem! The Rogues Gallery!. <== DDR Approved Editor 14:03, 10 March 2010 (UTC)
That makes sense. I don't know if it would be possible, but I'm no expert on bots. It would also have to deal with the issue of archives filling up, which is only just beginning to happen, as per Dulston. I dunno. I'll bring it up with Rooster.--Yonnua Koponen Talk !

Where do I start? If you're whining about me putting back (correctly) that original images could not be viewed I'd remind you that it was hours after I put that warning back up that this wiki actually found out where to find their images, and nearly two whole months after the problem actually happened. That's almost Microsoft levels of customer service there.
If you're talking about the paragraph on Swiers' system, you'll find all of that is accurate and sourced from the actual site itself.
If you're talking about the list at the top weighing the pros and cons of these systems, you'll do well to remember that these were written in collaboration with RG mods and ZHU members.
If you're just here to whine about losing your monopoly on a front page advert you can just fuck right off back into whatever hole you were in for the last two months while people were asking about the problems you've only just decided to fix.

I haven't seen any difference between the two based on just looking at them. It might have been due to the amount of times it appeared on Talk:Suggestions causing slowdowns and then saving wrong in your cache. Or it might be my cache using the image on my HD.

Signature

Out of curiosity why were all those signatures you tagged today illegal? It's probably none of my business.--MikhailKalashnikov 07:35, 21 February 2010 (UTC)

Your signature is illegal. You have one week to conform to the Signature Policy before you are taken to A/VB. - Goribus 07:05, 21 February 2010 (UTC)

You might want to look into getting glasses or perhaps getting a stronger prescription if you wear glasses. Or maybe empty your cache. After your post I changed my signature to conform to the rules, whereas yours doesn't conform to them. My signature is now 14 pixals high. Your signature is 54.24 kbs. The rule states no image size higher then 50 kbs. 54.24 kbs is 4.24 kbs over the limit. I suggest that you change your signature, or take the escalation.
Oh and even though we're in the middle of a debate about rules, I felt I should compliment you on your awesome Tatooine banner. Star Wars and Babylon Five are my favorite Space Operas. - Goribus 07:35, 21 February 2010 (UTC)
I have no image greater than 50kb, the criteria specifically refers to single image and has no limitations on the use of multiple images or a total sig image size. Nice try but fail.
You did change your sig, but it does not conform to the rules. You have the policy proscribed one week to make changes.
That is not a Tatoonie banner, go read Dune and become enlightened. -- To know the face of God is to know madness....Praise knowledge! Mischief! Mayhem! The Rogues Gallery!. <== DDR Approved Editor 08:29, 21 February 2010 (UTC)
You're completely wrong about your signature, and you'll find out how wrong you are in a week. I'd advise that you find out before then and change it. Also, I liked that banner better when it was a Tatooine banner. It sucks now that it's a Dune banner. Dune fucking sucked, worst Space Opera ever. Why would I want to read the novel to one of the worst Space Opera movies I've ever seen? - Goribus 09:40, 21 February 2010 (UTC)
Some of us are intelligent enough to actually read our Sci-Fi rather than wait for the moving picture versions. David Lynch's Dune was hideous, but bears no resemblance to the actual novel. Still, Lynch is a better director than Lucas (who stole every good idea he ever had off Kurosawa) or Bay (who likes inserting casual racism in your Go-Bots franchise). -- To know the face of God is to know madness....Praise knowledge! Mischief! Mayhem! The Rogues Gallery!. <== DDR Approved Editor 02:52, 22 February 2010 (UTC)
I don't need to read it to know I wouldn't like it. I haven't read Twilight and I'm certain I wouldn't like that either. Also your point about the movie having no resemblance to the novel is refuted by it's author: Though Herbert said the book's depth and symbolism seemed to intimidate many filmmakers, he was pleased with the film, saying that "They've got it. It begins as Dune does. And I hear my dialogue all the way through. There are some interpretations and liberties, but you're gonna come out knowing you've seen Dune." Herbert on Lynch's Dune movie
As for your other point that Lynch is a better director then Lucas and Bay, that goes without saying. I happen to be a fan of Lynch's work excluding Dune. However he does tend to attract the snooty elitist types like yourself that take cinema far too seriously. You seem to take a lot of things way too seriously. I'm willing to bet that you've never enjoyed any kind of fiction in any kind of media unless you see it as "art", or more likely a bunch of other people see it as "art". While Lynch is a better director than Lucas, the majority of his movies aren't as entertaining as Lucas' movies.
Oh and before I forget Bay's first movie was a mindless popcorn action movie, and for what it was it was passable entertainment. The sequel was a massive clusterfuck of plot holes, bad writing, bad acting, "what the fuck's going on", etc. It was written during a writers strike by amateurs and it really shows. Even with the standards for popcorn action movies it's mindless and just plain awful. In fact, it's about as bad as the Dune movie. I do find it precious that I'm getting a lecture on science fiction and entertainment from a Battlestar Galactica fanboy though. Both series were fucking atrocious. - Goribus 07:23, 22 February 2010 (UTC)
You know I actually came here to quote the old "Your signature is illegal. You have one week to conform to the Signature Policy before you are taken to A/VB." It seems I was beaten to the punch. Normally I don't give a flying whoopity-do about other people's signatures, but since you're so keen on pounding other people over the head with the rulebook I'm going to jump on the bandwagon.--GANG Giles Sednik CAPD 12:06, 21 February 2010 (UTC)

Izzie, you never said what was wrong with people's signature. Even worse, you didn't even link to the signature policy. Not vandalism for everyone based on improper informing of breaking said rules. If you're going to warn people you need to be able to answer their questions of why. None of these signatures are bad-faith, therefore simple mistakes. If you can't be bothered to help people with fixing their signatures then don't bother warning them. Newb mistakes will never get an escalation the first time.--Umbrella-White.pngThadeous OakleyUmbrella-White.png 15:58, 21 February 2010 (UTC)
Don't I remember you getting a soft warning for backseat sysoping before? Also, there are no 'rules' as you seem to imply.

Mis is right. If you right-click on the image of Iz's sig and then to properties you'll see that it is indeed 54.24kb. Ha, you got one week Iscariot. Talking about major fail.--Umbrella-White.pngThadeous OakleyUmbrella-White.png 16:27, 21 February 2010 (UTC)

If you go to the image page on the wiki, it's 36KB. The other KB are from the text.--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 16:47, 21 February 2010 (UTC)
"to know the face of god is to know madness"? That's part of the image, Yonnua. Sure the image on it's own is 36 kb, but if you decide to add text then it obviously grows in data. --Umbrella-White.pngThadeous OakleyUmbrella-White.png 17:59, 21 February 2010 (UTC)
Yeah, but the policy doesn't include the text. it's referring to the uploaded image on the wiki. :( I think. --Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 18:09, 21 February 2010 (UTC)
It doesn't specify either way. Therefore I'd take it at face value - the image in the sig is over 50kb and is therefore illegal. Nothing to be done! 18:13, 21 February 2010 (UTC)
Yeah, I've just checked through about 20 relevant policy discussions, none of which say anything, so it would go to the sysops to rule how they thought. As Iscariot said though, he's already been through a couple of trials for the sig, so it won't be a definite either way. Allow me to check for VB precedent.--Yonnua Koponen Talk !

No surprise considering how few (if any besides Iz) signature case were on A/VB. --Umbrella-White.pngThadeous OakleyUmbrella-White.png 18:43, 21 February 2010 (UTC)
Few points of correction:
  • His sig is from Battlestar Galactica, not 2001. It's a Cylon's eye, not HAL.
  • The text you get when you mouseover is not part of the image. It's wiki code.
  • You'd need several thousand characters if you wanted to have enough text to go from 36KB to 54.2KB. There's not even .1KB of text there.
  • The uploaded image is 36KB in size.
  • When images are resized to be smaller using wiki code, the wiki creates a new version of the file at that size.
  • Because his image has been resized (non-optimally) for his signature by the wiki software, it ended up getting bigger. VERY odd.
  • I'd agree with the others in saying that his sig is technically a violation because of the resizing issue.
  • Stop arguing on the Internet. This is just pointless drama.

I'm quite sure you meant to type 'relevant'. Three weeks ago? Well fucking excuse me for having broken internets and addressing the matter my first day back on the wiki. Simple question, did the page you edit begin with User: or User talk:? One is for the sole editing of the user in question and anyone given permission, the other is for discussion, which did you edit? Did you intentionally ignore the very obvious notice at the top of the page? Or was it an inability to read? You have the entirety of your own user space to place things you deem 'relevant' and 'constructive', in my user space however the uninvited prattlings of unwanted users are neither relevant or constructive. I have now warned you about editing invitation only projects that placed in my user space and pointed you to the very obvious warning notice that was at the top of the page when you edited it.

If it's my 'pissant little playpen', why are you so eager to jump in an add your unwanted opinions? I see you have failed to answer the very simple question as to what type of page it was that you edited, whether it was a talk page, or a user page, why am I not surprised by the omission of such a simple answer?

Great Suburb Group Massacre 2010

I noticed the issue you mentioned re: "Groups in one suburb are organizations in another (e.g. The Spanish Inquisition in Vinetown)". Aichon made TSI an 'organisation' on the Vinetown list as we have a subsidiary there (St John's Classic Rock, SJCR), but SJCR is not active in Pegton so it was an anomaly. I've amended the listings so that TSI is listed correctly as a group in both suburbs, and have removed SJCR for the time being as it's currently inactive anyway (one DJ has idled out, and the radio studio needs power). Hope that helps.--Mallrat The Spanish Inquisition TSI The Kilt Store TKS Clubbed to Death CTD 10:03, 19 December 2009 (UTC)

I was actually the one that mentioned the "issue" (those seven points were comments I made).

Now, since you obviously are unhappy with your common nickname, and are likely going to be unhappy with my proposals, and since I don't feel like googling your name or trying to sound it out in my head, I will compromise by calling you WANDA.

All other matters set aside for the moment, you'd be hard-pressed to call that an autobiography, since Judas was, well, kinda dead about 100-150+ years before it was written. I seem to recall an account of him hanging himself and his entrails spilling out over a field (named Akel Dama, for field of blood) later, though I'm guessing you wouldn't subscribe to that account.

If this is what I think this might be about, listing groups as historic on the suburb pages is an entirely different process to getting voted as a "historical group". Suburb listings reflect the groups who were locally historic in small ways, but who didn't make a big impact on the game as a whole. The category "historical groups", and the subsequent voting process, are for those who made a game-wide impact. For example, DHPD, if their time comes, might not make the vote as they're very regional and limited in scope, but will assuredly be listed under their home suburb for the work they do there. So now you know, half the battle, blah-dee-blah. Also, ninja-ed by Rooster, who appears to be disproving my point. Am I wrong? I could be wrong. Nothing to be done! 17:49, 20 November 2009 (UTC)
TA-DAH!!! Mis has the correct! Groups that have been important to suburbs, but would not pass historical voting due to their lack on impact on the game in general have always been allowed to be entered in that section to commemorate their history in the area.

The sidebar is intended for groups who have passed voting, mismatches in the terms can be considered an error in my part in the template's creation (though personally, I consider historic to mean of importance in history, and historical to mean just any history, although I think dictionaries tend to agree they're interchangable) but the intention if definitely for groups who've passed voting.

Historical Groups/Events

Read your short treatise on the subject and I agree that some of these nominations are creating absolutely ridiculous amounts of drama. I think that getting rid of the Historical Group category is a good idea, but by the same token there should be some method of determining whether or not a groups page(s) should be on the wiki forever. Otherwise, we could end up with a number of group pages for groups that only lasted a month or two and disbanded; nobody will ever use them again or likely even visit them, so why keep them?

What about changing the policy for nominations instead? Currently it stands at only two months after a group disbands (or after an event). Why not re-write the policy to account for a longer period of time, say six months or even a year? I would argue that if after that longer period of time people still even remember the event or group in question, it might be worth a nomination. Just my thoughts. --Maverick Talk - OBR Praise Knowledge! 404 07:47, 5 November 2009 (UTC)

I'm only responding to one of these once. If I wanted your opinion (read: you had half a clue about the policies of this wiki) you'd have been invited to participate. It doesn't mean you should come to my talk page and fill it up with crap about every thought that passed through your head. We already keep group pages permanently on this wiki, even if they were only around a couple of months (see: ZEMA). You can't alter a policy towards nominations, because there isn't one currently.

Historical voting is the perfect example of why not everything on this wiki is a vote. It's not like you can say, "This is almost historic, try again in 2 months." I've been on the receiving end of a frankly ridiculous historical vote, and frankly despair at l33t newbs going "WHO?". Frankly it would be a lot easier if we just got a few people who have played the game since the beginning to decide.

Nowadays there are only a handful of groups who can genuinely claim they "changed the game". Survivors are more fractured then ever, and the large zombie groups are the easy route for new zombies. Any groups formed this year people think are even close? Clubbed to death? Dead bunnies? Any survivor group? Meh.

As I'm here, I've been reading the combat revive page. Think it needs a bit of a rewrite. Whats your opinion Iscariot? --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 15:59, 5 November 2009 (UTC)

Question is, who would you put on this committee? I haven't been here since 2005, neither have you. Hagnat? He called Sponge a cheat and unclassy for death culting and reporting survivor numbers at the beginning of MT09, when Sponge was doing what I (the guy that wrote the fucking rules for the event) asked him to. The newbies think everything they do is historical, the throwbacks think new playstyles like death culting are wrong and won't even consider them, who do we pick? And as this is the wiki there's the notion of limitation of authority, could a sysop override the committee for a popular choice under the 'ignore shit when it suits them' clause? Could they refuse to add the category (or remove it) on pages they disagree with?
Feel free to jump onto PD3 and add your opinions Ross.
Combat revive does need an overhaul, badly. So do a lot of older 'glossary' style pages.

About the comments regarding humor

Thanks for your input; I have seen the Columbine Kids page. I feel it is an unfortunate choice but to be fair, humor is often dark and full of edges. Creating that page is not a choice I would have made, but people have a right to express themselves as they see fit. That is also why I did not edit the Burn Towers site after another user pointed out that it was within my rights to do so if I saw fit(I am a humble newbie and misunderstood the rules...apparently English is my first AND second language). If I find something as vulgar, crass, boorish or even repugnant, that is my opinion and I think it is OK to tell someone that is how I feel about it. Would'nt you do the same for any friend who made a joke that was offending people? Of course, real sarcasm is best left to professionals.

Hmm. Well, if it IS only harming you by reverting the edit, which I can see it definately is, then there shouldn't really be a problem. I guess the way he's thinking is that there's no point putting it back how it was before, because both are wrong, and there isn't really any formal investigation going in to it. I assume he decided to go with the more leniant option of the two then, as opposed to giving you something which was both wrong and bad. It's a tricky situation.

His isn't the more lenient version in any way, it serves to obsfucate the issue and is blatantly hypocritical, and he knows it. Good luck trying to talk to him, prepare to be stonewalled. Or he'll fall into the argument of "Prove beyond all doubt what the correct version is", odd how he didn't have to do the same before he made his edits isn't it?

As stated on A/VB it is the user's responsibility to track their record, the user's, not your responsibility. If you had even a modicum of awareness regarding this wiki you'd have known what would happen, so you're either deliberately causing the drama or you have no idea of the history of this community.

"I best"? Really? Perhaps telling someone who has had people escalated for removing posts from talk pages they don't own (as you have done) is not best. How about you learn about editing privileges, especially given your aspirations of being a sysop, before telling me about history and precedent.

Firstly, I mean "It would be best" not "You'd best". Sorry for that misunderstanding. Anyway, it would be better to remove a comment to conform with the page owners wishes than to repeatedly add it for... what reason again? To keep it off of a list which it's no longer on? Frankly, Iscariot, threatening to take me to A/VB, or somehow endanger my efforts to become a sysop doesn't worry me. If sorting out this wiki the way it should be prevents me from being a sysop, then I guess I wouldn't care to be one. However, the fact that what I did was in the best interests of the group makes it perfectly acceptable. And I wasn't the oen who removed the comment, I just stopped you from putting it back.

Hi

DDR bugged me to come back here because there's only like 3 active sysops and shit like that. Whatever. I didn't plan on coming back now, if ever, but anyway. I'd like to apologize for some of my behavior right before you left, and while it's no excuse, I was just having life problems in general and I took a lot of my anger out on you when I didn't need to or really have a right to. So I'm sorry. I'm not exactly looking for forgiveness, as I think that you're probably still seething with hatred towards me, but I wanted to say I'm sorry anyway and hopefully cut down on the clashes we may have in the future. Glad you removed the no-sysops rule here though, don't know where I'd have stuck this otherwise.

Unlike certain sysops I am making an effort to be reasonable on this wiki. One only has to look at Cyberbob's conduct here and Boxy's doctoring of my A/VD data to see that this is apparent. You'll notice that if you or I added sections of nonsense or sections deliberately large as to obscrure the responses of others on a policy page, we'd be taken to A/VB and escalated.

Sysops

You have said repeatedly recently that you'd like to see new sysops promoted to cover the slack. Recently, I've considered running, and I consulted the current sysops prior to your return about it. They said that I needed to become more present in drama-nests such as a/vb and a/m, which I have tried to do since, although have not yet completely achieved. In your opinion, if I were to continue to work on these goals, would you support me in a sysop bid?--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 19:08, 25 September 2009 (BST)

It is not entirely to do with presence in these arenas, nor the quantity of contributions but the quality of those contributions. Awareness of precedent and abandonment of ego as regards these arenas. Conndraka and Cyberbob are bad sysops by this criteria, both exercise the power of the sysop as if it's some elite and divine right, and both cause more drama and discord in the community as a result. However, not causing drama by non-participation also makes you a bad sysop, see The Rooster in the recent Nubis drama, it would have been in the community's best interest to have full participation from the admin team, yet apparently it's beneath The Rooster even though he was active elsewhere (targeting me whilst still doing fuck all about a major group doing the same), such traits also make a bad sysop.
The important thing to consider is why you want to be a sysop and what you will do when promoted, these are just as important as procedural and policy knowledge. -- To know the face of God is to know madness....Praise knowledge! Mischief! Mayhem! The Rogues Gallery!. <== DDR Approved Editor 04:53, 26 September 2009 (BST)
I want to be a sysop so that I can help out on the admin pages, instead of just turning up and reading them, or occassionally posting a semi-relevant comment on the talk.

On the SA case, I'd say borderline Misconduct. I didn't read the whole thing, but from the beginning section, he opened the door to misconduct by using his sysop status as a badge. Furthermore, that precedent against Hagnat that Cheese linked to is fairly clear. I'll read the other one briefly, then I'll read over them again to check if I stand by my decisions.--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 10:46, 26 September 2009 (BST)
I'd also say misconduct on the Boxy case. He used his powers to remove groups which, at the time they were added, were deemed historical. They should be evaluated by the process that stood at the time, not the present one. That would be like holding re-evaluations for sysops who had held the position but were no longer sysops anymore, like Odd Starter. It would be ridiculous.--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 10:52, 26 September 2009 (BST)
And based on this I won't be vouching for you. Conndraka used to pull the same behaviour, rule on something and then maybe, possibly read and understand the circumstances later. -- To know the face of God is to know madness....Praise knowledge! Mischief! Mayhem! The Rogues Gallery!. <== DDR Approved Editor 10:54, 26 September 2009 (BST)
If this were an actual case, I would have read it. Since it's just you finding my general opinion, I gave a general opinion. As I'm havign two conversations at once, i thought it would be best to give a swift response, and a more evaluated one later.

Major Polish

I'm a bit too close to this to really see the glaring logical areas, want to lead me through them, much like a confused and drunken child? --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 11:05, 20 September 2009 (BST)

Logical errors wise, I see two major ones:
  1. "More importantly no zombie or hostile groups are listed. " followed by "Get a rivalry going"
  2. The notion that the wiki is accurate when it comes to group placement and effectiveness. I guarantee that the DEM are still listed in at least 10 suburbs they don't have anyone in.
The big problem though is it's lack of style, there's nothing there, no character. Grim's guide and my rantings work because of their unadulterated loathing for people who do differently, and people have a platform then to engage it from, this guide has no soul, with no soul there's nothing to make a connection to a newbie searching this vast resource for help. It becomes forgettable. I can see what you're saying because I've been playing for years, your facts are sound, I know this, you know this, but without any explanation as to why it becomes just as valid as Brainguard's Fort strategy to newbies. -- To know the face of God is to know madness....Praise knowledge! Mischief! Mayhem! The Rogues Gallery!. <== DDR Approved Editor 19:59, 20 September 2009 (BST)
Frankly thats two good points. The DEM aren't as bad as they were, and when I challenged the MFD, (By far the worst offender) I did manage to take them off 20 or so suburbs. I'll change both those points.
As for style, you're right. Lookng back it shows that I wrote it in 3 big chunks and It doesn't flow. I'm just wondering If its possible to inject character in a way other than anger?
As I'm here which 80's programme are you referencing with your sig? The one with the remake or the one with the hoff? --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 20:52, 20 September 2009 (BST)
Style's a funny thing. NMH worked as it was written in one sitting as an outpouring at the banality of that SOS page, HTABRG (sig link) was written over several months and is more vanilla, think about how you want your guide to approach the user and from that dictate the tone and language of the piece.
I style most of my stuff after The Prophet Hicks or 2, generally because that's how I write and argue in general, it doesn't mean aggression is the only method of structuring a guide. Find another work, whether guide, novel or even a review that you want your guide to be like and then from there see how it could be done in a vanilla manner, an aggressive manner etc. From there you should be able to isolate what you like about it and apply it.
I still think you need to increasing its size through explanations to qualify your remarks, I think it will end up three times bigger if done right.
As for the TV show, I like the millennial remake:

Your signiture....

I was having a little trouble when I was making my signiture. I was wondering where you went to get the image you had? I tried a number of different things, not a one of which really worked for me,.... either because they were to big height wise, or file size wise. Any suggestions? -Poodle of DoomM!

just a fyi

Your characted description left me puzzled about WTF you were talking about. Rubens barrichelo can kiss my ass, he is the worst racer that brazil ever sent to formula one. Last year i did rotted for Massa a lot, but rubens didnt smashed Hamilton's car, and Vettel couldnt hold the brit in that final lap, so he lost. This year was awesome to see the races, but as far as brazilians were running on it, there wasnt hope for them... specially if you take into account barrichelo's murder attempt on Massa in that race that prevented him from racing several races. I am anxious to see next year championship, but this year, meh. --People's Commissar Hagnat [talk] [wcdz] 17:34, 10 November 2009 (UTC)

Hey Iscariot. You have categorized - http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php/Image:Zombie-Sashimi.jpg - as an unused image. The image is linked to by The Mester Arms, but not used as an image on that page. Is there something I should add to the page to ensure the Wiki realizes that it is linked to... or something...? x --    : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : 09:07, 26 November 2009 (UTC)
