===JISOR/Halfdan and Mekhan/Tarpenz===
Assuming these 4 are all ruled vandalism, are their votes in the election all struck? Would remove 2 additional votes from Stelar, leaving them at 23. --{{User:Dragonshardz/dragonshardz}} {{Goonsig|Dragonshardz}} 07:58, 15 December 2018 (UTC)
:We'd strike only the second (time-wise) of the votes for each candidate; e.g. JISOR's first two votes would remain, but any by Halfdan Pisket would be struck. Same with Mekhan/Tarpenz — Mekhan's votes remain, but Tarpenz's have been struck. {{User:Bob Moncrief/Sig}} 12:15, 15 December 2018 (UTC)
::I corrected the title for clarity. I have not been connected to the other two accounts. -- [[file:SomethingSomething.gif|link=http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php/User:Jack's_Inflamed_Sense_Of_Rejection]] 14:47, 15 December 2018 (UTC)
::JISOR’s final vote was made after both of Pisket’s. If a user has two votes, I believe it would make sense for all votes struck after the first two votes by a single user. {{User:DanceDanceRevolution/sig5}} 14:54, 15 December 2018 (UTC)
:::Oh, unless of course that scenario would end in a double vote like you described. Apologies. {{User:DanceDanceRevolution/sig5}} 14:56, 15 December 2018 (UTC)
:::Totally right. I didn't realize Halfdan's were timestamped before JISOR's. {{User:Bob Moncrief/Sig}} 15:15, 15 December 2018 (UTC)

Blanked [[User talk:Sniper4625]] - normally I would give benefit of the doubt, but they seem quite hostile, so I thought I would bring it to your attention. Regards~ [[User:Sniper4625|Sniper4625]] ([[User talk:Sniper4625|talk]]) 23:32, 3 June 2018 (UTC)
: I won't need any benefit of doubt, thanks for considering my feelings though. After reading I wanted to have my talk page protected both Sniper and Dragontard came to write on my page - if you don't want any hostile behavior I suggest you fuck off and leave me alone :) I don't even know who the fuck you guys are. {{unsigned|Sister Mary|23:37 June 3 2018}}

::Now now, there's no need to be rude and start flinging insults. --[[User:Dragonshardz|Dragonshardz]] ([[User talk:Dragonshardz|talk]]) 23:41, 3 June 2018 (UTC)
:: Might I inquire why you decided the best choice of action to a harmless greeting was a rule-breaking act of vandalism? Quite rude. [[User:Sniper4625|Sniper4625]] ([[User talk:Sniper4625|talk]]) 23:40, 3 June 2018 (UTC)
:Given talk pages are a pretty important element of regulating user behavior without needing to ban anyone the instant they step out of line, I'm really not sure Sister Mary has any interest in learning or following any of the community norms of the wiki. [[User:Swissaboo|Swissaboo]] ([[User talk:Swissaboo|talk]]) 23:51, 3 June 2018 (UTC)
::Per their talk page now they apparently have gotten many such pages deleted, which somewhat confuses me. [[User:Sniper4625|Sniper4625]] ([[User talk:Sniper4625|talk]]) 23:52, 3 June 2018 (UTC)
::Adding onto this, in their [[UDWiki:Administration/Protections#User_talk:Sister_Mary|protection request]] they clearly have no interest in bothering with the proper formatting for responding to other users and on their talk page they have placed the nominated for deleting template without any actual nomination for deletion having occurred. I don't know how much of this is actually against wiki RULES (except perhaps that last one?) but they're very clearly running roughshod over the expected standards of behavior. [[User:Swissaboo|Swissaboo]] ([[User talk:Swissaboo|talk]]) 00:00, 4 June 2018 (UTC)
:::I'm sure you meant {{WIKILAW}} when you said RULES. --[[User:Dragonshardz|Dragonshardz]] ([[User talk:Dragonshardz|talk]]) 01:23, 4 June 2018 (UTC)
This was exactly the point of having my talk page protected - the horde/jack/whateverzergs can't seem to leave me alone :) [[User:Sister Mary|Sister Mary]] ([[User talk:Sister Mary|talk]]) 00:10, 4 June 2018 (UTC)
:The Jack got run out of town on a rail. Try again. --[[User:Dragonshardz|Dragonshardz]] ([[User talk:Dragonshardz|talk]]) 01:26, 4 June 2018 (UTC)
::You never did explain why you thought breaking the rules in a very rude way was the best course of action, and why you thought getting demonstrably mad would make people pay *less* attention to you. [[User:Sniper4625|Sniper4625]] ([[User talk:Sniper4625|talk]]) 00:24, 4 June 2018 (UTC)
::: The reason is pretty simple, and I thought you got the message, but okay, I will clarify for you why = I don't like you :) I will eat my warning with pleasure, don't worry about it! But.. this isn't your first time harrassing people, correct? I like that you feel like you have the upperhand over a guy that made 200+ edits within the last 24 hours, and only vandalized a single page of a user that didn't really go about making "a good-faith attempt to improve this wiki" by trying to trigger me by invading my talk page. Im looking forward as to how this will play out. I will just make another account and keep on editing from there so I didn't lose anything catching myself a warning, other than shifting focus to you ugly bunch of motherfuckers :D [[User:Sister Mary|Sister Mary]] ([[User talk:Sister Mary|talk]]) 00:39, 4 June 2018 (UTC) (See, I use my template just like you want to!)
:::Isn't sockpuppeting to avoid wikipunishments in itself a punishable offense? You just keep digging. [[User:Sniper4625|Sniper4625]] ([[User talk:Sniper4625|talk]]) 01:18, 4 June 2018 (UTC)
:::: I see that you're trying to put words in my mouth - unfortunately thats not going to happen. As stated, I will be let of with a warning so I have no intention, and never have I stated that I would sneak away from any punishment. I think it's great that everyone can see how you guys clearly are trying to engage some sort of drama - otherwise you would have left me alone, like I asked to be. So if you think again, I will ditch this account to prevent people like you from being a harrassment. But regarding the sockpuppet behavior - how do we work out the fact that 3 different people came around at the same time, all with the same purpose, and all with the intention of trying to give me a bad time - did you guys coordinate some sort of drama on my behalf - After asking for my talk page to be isolated from people like you. I think im gonna need your shovel m8, seems like it digs that much faster than mine :) [[User:Sister Mary|Sister Mary]] ([[User talk:Sister Mary|talk]]) 02:00, 4 June 2018 (UTC) (Ohhhhh snap.)
:::::Are you back, Jack? Because you're making the same "alts!" argument he did, and he was similarly disproven. I'm not sure how I put words in your mouth when you said "I will just make another account and keep on editing from there," but well, I did appreciate your attempt to sic Aichon on my compatriot. Too bad it failed. [[User:Sniper4625|Sniper4625]] ([[User talk:Sniper4625|talk]]) 02:08, 4 June 2018 (UTC)
: AHHHHHHHH :D I was actually just waiting for someone to pull out the "you're a Yocum" card! Sure dude - let's say im a Jack. I must be a great Jack. I mean, I edited 2 suburbs completely and have been editing the EMRP for 6 months on another account - but sure! YOU GOT ME! :D Im getting the idea that your dick is all so im gonna leave you to play with that! I will be back with another account, to edit another 200+ locations. Meanwhile you guys will have to enjoy yourself being annoying towards someone else! :D {{unsigned|Sister Mary|02:22, 4 June 2018}}

'''Vandalism''' and a '''Warning'''. Don't blank other's pages. I'll serve the warning officially over at the Sister Mary page, but I assume you'll see it here as well. And yes, warnings carry over between accounts. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 02:51, 4 June 2018 (UTC)
:So...how does the wiki handle a user rage-reverting their own edits? --[[User:Dragonshardz|Dragonshardz]] ([[User talk:Dragonshardz|talk]]) 03:09, 4 June 2018 (UTC)
:: Rage reverting? I edited 3 locations due to them being wrong :D Aichon you said something about the parties in question should talk, the rest should shut up. If this doesnt qualify as harrassment I don't know what will. {{unsigned|Sister Mary|03:14, 4 June 2018 (UTC)}}

... and then try to stay away from A/VB. Because any added insults, drama, speculation, or just plain commentary on the ongoing vandalism/sockpuppetry only serves to increase the disruption that is the aim of persistent vandals <small>-- [[User:Boxy|<span style="color: Red">boxy</span>]] <sup>[[User talk:Boxy|<span style="color: Red">talk</span>]] • [[UDWiki:Image Categorisation|i]]</sup> 03:05 19 August 2008 (BST)</small>

I'm pretty sure that saying (not modifying, impersonating, or deleting) something on someone's talk page is almost never vandalism. Possibly Arbys case maybe, but almost never vandalism.{{User:Techercizer/Sig}} 00:10, 19 August 2008 (BST)
Now think about it, I have a very distant memory of a user who used to remove all signatures of everyone else on their talk page as a kind of norm, but I can't remember who it was, or if it actually happened. Might have been Iscariot, maybe even Finis. Does this sound right to anybody? {{User:DanceDanceRevolution/a}} 22:44, 9 October 2015 (UTC)
::There are at least 3 precidents for this to be labeled '''Vandalism'''. In fact the last 3 times this was attempted by a pro survivor group there was a warning given out and the posts were reverted.  The same should be done here.--[[User:Kristi of the Dead|Kristi of the Dead]] 03:01, 19 August 2008 (BST)
:Yeah, there was somebody, but fuck if I remember who it was.

And posting ''personal information'' to the wiki, whining to the sysops, asking for ''private user information'' and even threatening to contact my ISP over this petty, minor, utterly insignificant fucking incident.

ioncannon, you are a proven, repeat-offender vandal. One doesn't get to the point of a one month ban, with the possibility of a perma, just for, like, hangin' around and being chill. Nope.

If fucgrim WAS me, would I be stupid enough to tell him that knowing that lemon has logs of everything...Vandal alt duh was most likely some from the Cult of the Fallen Gay or Lemon's goons trying to pin this on me.

I also think it might be the Cult of The Fallen God, as we have had disputes and those pussies went to the RG and started vandalizing our pages. Now I think they might've taken it a step farther.}}

And they obviously also know the FACTS, i.e. that the IPs of my myself, Techercizer and Lemonhead are not the same as whoever is creating the sockpuppets.

:::::::::::::First, I've been around here longer than you have, and although I haven't participated in much wiki drama, I frequent A/VB. And, actually, there <i>is</i> a relation. The fact that several people in this case (you, tech, and lemon) don't like Ion (evident though chatbox trolling, as well as their general attitudes towards him), and the fact that <i>they</i> are the ones suggesting that he's making these vandal accounts, leads me to assume that the accounts may have been made in an attempt to burn Ion off the wiki, by someone who doesn't like him (which could be you, or anybody). But like I <i>just said</i>, in the end none of it really matters. The perma vote is already going on anyway.
:::::::::::::Although you'll probably whine a little more after I bring this up :p, I find it rather odd that Lemon, Tech, and Wan are all in the MOB. Since when does the MOB have a personal vendetta against Ion? Or maybe it was just Lemon being shady again and asking his friends to help him frame someone he doesn't like. I wouldn't put it past him. :D --[[User:Kikashie|Kikashie]] <sup>[[Dulston Alliance/Newspaper|Read the Dispatch!]]</sup>

This is the kind of trolling crap that needs to be stopped. While technically not impersonation, the edit was clearly in bad faith, i.e. there was no intent to improve the wiki, in fact very clearly the opposite was the intent... If this were a first or second time offense, then I think a soft warning (i.e., smarten up) might be appropriate. However, ioncannon has a long and storied history of trolling, some of which has been deemed vandalism, some of which he has been able to get away with. Given this history, it's kind of obvious that his trolling was wilful and destructive and in bad faith.
 
Consider this, as well... If "shitting up admin pages" -- even without inflammatory or derogatory content -- can be considered vandalism, then blatant trolling ought to be considered vandalism as well. How come the sysops get special protection from having to deal with B.S. on the pages they use, but the rest of the community doesn't? We don't get ANY protection from trolls, except... "Ignore them", or "Take it Arby"... Which system, as has been demonstrated time and time again, is quite broken. So what about us, the Joe Users, nuh? You have a chance here to set a precedent and declare blatant trolling = vandalism... in a similar vein as to how "shitting up the admin pages" works... Will you take this stand? --[[User:WanYao|WanYao]] 01:12, 7 August 2008 (BST)
:1. Where is the post on Ioncannon's talk page asking him about this edit?
:2. That headline isn't something that Tech posted as part of his comment. It isn't impersonation.
:''You have a chance here to set a precedent and declare blatant trolling = vandalism.'' And then make a back door civility policy enforcible? No thanks.  News Flash - Not everyone on the internet is going to be nice to everyone else. And hopefully you are choking on the irony of you posting and bitching about trolls.  You have a nice posting history on Talk:suggestions that would earn you a few days off from the wiki if we did punish trolls. You can't have it both ways.
:Admin pages need special protection. Deal with it. You bitch about the system being broken yet you also bitch about the few parts that work. Maybe you do need some time off. --{{User:Nubis/sig}} 02:49, 7 August 2008 (BST)
:Yeah, it's a double-edged sword. I'd like to remind you wiki users not involved in the case are '''not to post here.''' This is considered vandalism if you do it excessively, as you are know. [[User:Ioncannon11|Ioncannon11]] 03:07, 7 August 2008 (BST)
::Blah blah...
::# There is a difference between someone making rude comments in the context of criticising an idea etc., vs. someone who makes completely unconstructive edits which serve no purpose but to insult and to troll -- like ioncannon's in this case. If you can't see the difference, well... whatever...
::# Yup, it's a "backdoor civility policy". However, it's one that fits the spirit of the "bad faith" policy. It deals with edits that have no redeeming value except to spam and to troll. It leaves intact otherwise rude comments that are made in the context of a discussion and/or criticism. If you can't see the difference, and how it'd apply, well, whatever... 
::# Yup, I'd abide by it, if it applied to me. But, my rude comments on communoity pages are always made in a context of a discussion/critique, and never just spammy trolling of headers etc. So it wouldn't apply to my "trolling", nor to most of yours or your SA buddies'. It would apply to crap like ioncannon's adit above. If you can't see the difference between these two types of cases, well, whatever...
::# I'm not saying that Admin pages don't need special protection... What I am saying is that if it's good enough for the Admin pages, then a parallel procedure is good enough for the non-elite users who have to deal with the rest of the wiki. Again, if this point escape you, well, whatever...
::Fact is that good users are leaving the wiki, or never joining in the first place, because of serial trolling. But good users don't actually leave the wiki because of some rude comments in Talk:Suggestions, case in point being the fact that some of the users who got flamed recently on Talk:Suggestions stood back from it all and realised where the people who were attacking were coming from, because for the most part there ''was'' a context for the flames... And now we're all a happy emo family working towards the same goals... ;) But if you can't see the difference between this kind trolling vs. making rude comments in the context of commentary... and if you think that over-the-top trolling behavior is a-okay... well... whatever...

JISOR/Halfdan and Mekhan/Tarpenz

Assuming these 4 are all ruled vandalism, are their votes in the election all struck? Would remove 2 additional votes from Stelar, leaving them at 23. --ooɹd ǝʌɐɥ sʇɐoƃ sʍoʅʚ ǝɹɔuoɯ uǝɹɐʞWe're going to destroy everything, and you can't stop usYou rated this wiki '1'! Great job, go hog wild!|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| 07:58, 15 December 2018 (UTC)

We'd strike only the second (time-wise) of the votes for each candidate; e.g. JISOR's first two votes would remain, but any by Halfdan Pisket would be struck. Same with Mekhan/Tarpenz — Mekhan's votes remain, but Tarpenz's have been struck. Bob Moncrief EBDW! 12:15, 15 December 2018 (UTC)
I corrected the title for clarity. I have not been connected to the other two accounts. -- SomethingSomething.gif 14:47, 15 December 2018 (UTC)
JISOR’s final vote was made after both of Pisket’s. If a user has two votes, I believe it would make sense for all votes struck after the first two votes by a single user. DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION 14:54, 15 December 2018 (UTC)
Oh, unless of course that scenario would end in a double vote like you described. Apologies. DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION 14:56, 15 December 2018 (UTC)
Totally right. I didn't realize Halfdan's were timestamped before JISOR's. Bob Moncrief EBDW! 15:15, 15 December 2018 (UTC)

I won't need any benefit of doubt, thanks for considering my feelings though. After reading I wanted to have my talk page protected both Sniper and Dragontard came to write on my page - if you don't want any hostile behavior I suggest you fuck off and leave me alone :) I don't even know who the fuck you guys are. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Sister Mary (talkcontribs) 23:37 June 3 2018.

Now now, there's no need to be rude and start flinging insults. --Dragonshardz (talk) 23:41, 3 June 2018 (UTC)
Might I inquire why you decided the best choice of action to a harmless greeting was a rule-breaking act of vandalism? Quite rude. Sniper4625 (talk) 23:40, 3 June 2018 (UTC)
Given talk pages are a pretty important element of regulating user behavior without needing to ban anyone the instant they step out of line, I'm really not sure Sister Mary has any interest in learning or following any of the community norms of the wiki. Swissaboo (talk) 23:51, 3 June 2018 (UTC)
Per their talk page now they apparently have gotten many such pages deleted, which somewhat confuses me. Sniper4625 (talk) 23:52, 3 June 2018 (UTC)
Adding onto this, in their protection request they clearly have no interest in bothering with the proper formatting for responding to other users and on their talk page they have placed the nominated for deleting template without any actual nomination for deletion having occurred. I don't know how much of this is actually against wiki RULES (except perhaps that last one?) but they're very clearly running roughshod over the expected standards of behavior. Swissaboo (talk) 00:00, 4 June 2018 (UTC)
I'm sure you meant WIKI LAW when you said RULES. --Dragonshardz (talk) 01:23, 4 June 2018 (UTC)

The Jack got run out of town on a rail. Try again. --Dragonshardz (talk) 01:26, 4 June 2018 (UTC)
You never did explain why you thought breaking the rules in a very rude way was the best course of action, and why you thought getting demonstrably mad would make people pay *less* attention to you. Sniper4625 (talk) 00:24, 4 June 2018 (UTC)
The reason is pretty simple, and I thought you got the message, but okay, I will clarify for you why = I don't like you :) I will eat my warning with pleasure, don't worry about it! But.. this isn't your first time harrassing people, correct? I like that you feel like you have the upperhand over a guy that made 200+ edits within the last 24 hours, and only vandalized a single page of a user that didn't really go about making "a good-faith attempt to improve this wiki" by trying to trigger me by invading my talk page. Im looking forward as to how this will play out. I will just make another account and keep on editing from there so I didn't lose anything catching myself a warning, other than shifting focus to you ugly bunch of motherfuckers :D Sister Mary (talk) 00:39, 4 June 2018 (UTC) (See, I use my template just like you want to!)
Isn't sockpuppeting to avoid wikipunishments in itself a punishable offense? You just keep digging. Sniper4625 (talk) 01:18, 4 June 2018 (UTC)
I see that you're trying to put words in my mouth - unfortunately thats not going to happen. As stated, I will be let of with a warning so I have no intention, and never have I stated that I would sneak away from any punishment. I think it's great that everyone can see how you guys clearly are trying to engage some sort of drama - otherwise you would have left me alone, like I asked to be. So if you think again, I will ditch this account to prevent people like you from being a harrassment. But regarding the sockpuppet behavior - how do we work out the fact that 3 different people came around at the same time, all with the same purpose, and all with the intention of trying to give me a bad time - did you guys coordinate some sort of drama on my behalf - After asking for my talk page to be isolated from people like you. I think im gonna need your shovel m8, seems like it digs that much faster than mine :) Sister Mary (talk) 02:00, 4 June 2018 (UTC) (Ohhhhh snap.)
Are you back, Jack? Because you're making the same "alts!" argument he did, and he was similarly disproven. I'm not sure how I put words in your mouth when you said "I will just make another account and keep on editing from there," but well, I did appreciate your attempt to sic Aichon on my compatriot. Too bad it failed. Sniper4625 (talk) 02:08, 4 June 2018 (UTC)
AHHHHHHHH :D I was actually just waiting for someone to pull out the "you're a Yocum" card! Sure dude - let's say im a Jack. I must be a great Jack. I mean, I edited 2 suburbs completely and have been editing the EMRP for 6 months on another account - but sure! YOU GOT ME! :D Im getting the idea that your dick is all so im gonna leave you to play with that! I will be back with another account, to edit another 200+ locations. Meanwhile you guys will have to enjoy yourself being annoying towards someone else! :D —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Sister Mary (talkcontribs) 02:22, 4 June 2018.

Vandalism and a Warning. Don't blank other's pages. I'll serve the warning officially over at the Sister Mary page, but I assume you'll see it here as well. And yes, warnings carry over between accounts. Aichon 02:51, 4 June 2018 (UTC)

So...how does the wiki handle a user rage-reverting their own edits? --Dragonshardz (talk) 03:09, 4 June 2018 (UTC)
Rage reverting? I edited 3 locations due to them being wrong :D Aichon you said something about the parties in question should talk, the rest should shut up. If this doesnt qualify as harrassment I don't know what will. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Sister Mary (talkcontribs) 03:14, 4 June 2018 (UTC).

Sounds to me like someone is finally bored of this game and is getting one last laugh out of the community by being as much as a cunt as possible on his way out. Either that or it's his time of month and he's out of pads.----RWSig1.png RWSig2.pngFoD PK Praise Rando!06:37, 4 June 2018 (UTC)

Yeah, there was somebody, but fuck if I remember who it was.
