:While annoying if we declare this is vandalism then we will have to do the same for the Great Suburb Massacre since they are both leaving lots of messages on talk pages. If the groups want them removed they can, but it seems to be a legit event that has a place on those pages.  (also sign your posts)--{{User:Nubis/sig}} 23:53, 18 August 2008 (BST)
::I was gonna sign my post but someone was editing what I posted as I did so.  Sorry.  Tell me again what you did about the 5th of november spammings?  Cause those were about a legit event as well? I seem to remember them being removed or something.  Also the Great suburb massacre isn't an event in game it's about cleaning up the wiki and isn't relevant.--[[User:Kristi of the Dead|Kristi of the Dead]] 23:54, 18 August 2008 (BST)
:::I don't remember the 5th of November incident so hopefully some other sysop will chime in on that. I don't know how an event can get any attention any other way outside of posting on talk pages, so I am not sure how else they can do this. It's annoying, but what are their options?  (I understand why you missed signing your post - editing all those links is a pain)--{{User:Nubis/sig}} 00:03, 19 August 2008 (BST)
::::The 5th of november guys did the exact same thing.  Only difference was that theirs was pro survivor.  It got them in trouble as I remember.  But as for what they should do.  They should make a wiki page for the event like everyone else does.  You didn't see the Big Bash wiki spamming their event all over the place.  You didn't see the Mall tour spamming all over the place.  That's what the precident was (in my mind at least)--[[User:Kristi of the Dead|Kristi of the Dead]] 00:07, 19 August 2008 (BST)

If you are still intent on having something changed because of inaccuracy, then arbitration is the best place to do it (bring evidence please).

'''Vandalism''' - Someone else created the suggestion there, someone else created the headers. The headers are very strongly implied to be the work of the author of the suggestion. Leaving them in the generic default doesnt give other people the right to change them to insult the poster of the suggestion, correcting them to match the suggestion is fine when left in th default (Much the same as a typo correction), but that did not happen here. Feel free to be insulting in your own posts, but do not resort to impersonation to do so. Also, the edit was entirely made in bad faith, and asking only really applies when there is some doubt over the intent of teh edit. No matter how hard i try i cannnot see how this was made in any small part in good faith. --[[User:Grim_s|The Grimch]] <sup>[[Project UnWelcome|U!]] [[Project Evil|E!]]</sup> 04:08, 7 August 2008 (BST)

::If this is vandalism then your creating an insulting headline for J3D is also since the end result is good or bad faith. If '''this''' is vandalism then your creating an insulting headline for J3D is actually '''more''' vandalism since you posted it over his comments. Are you sure you still want to consider this vandalism?  Either Ioncannon can make a funny insulting headline over his post in an area that other people will post under (like you did) or he can't. But we are not going to say that a sysop can but a user can't.--{{User:Nubis/sig}} 13:31, 7 August 2008 (BST)
:::The parallels between this case and what Grim did is astounding. While Ion replaced an existing heading, it is a default heading and by the nature of the new heading it was apparent that Tech hadn't written it. Also at least the first comment under the new heading was Ion's unlike Grim's which until the explanation text was placed appeared as if i had written it. It seems to me the real difference here is that one was created by the 2nd most powerful and one of the most respected users on the wiki and the other was created by a largely disliked vandal prone user. Double standard anyone? And yes Grim, i am directly involved considering there is very recent precedent about this and my name was brought up in both cases, the first case in fact centred around a post i made and where it was located.--{{User:J3D/ciggy}} 14:00, 7 August 2008 (BST)

Sure it is! He didn't edit and I felt I could use that header separately for my comment. Is that not allowed? I can't have a separate header for my comment? Everyone can have their own sub comment. I was just trying to draw attention to the fact that he is a noob. The rest of the post was 100% in good faith; I was contributing my 2 cents. Impersonating is changing people's posts. He left that part of the template blank, so I used it for my own comment! Not impersonation!!!! Or, at least, definitely not worth a week's ban...

FOR THE LAST FUCKING TIME, IT WAS NOT HIS HEADER!!! HE MADE A CONSCIOUS DECISION NOT TO EDIT IT AND NOT MAKE IT INTO ANYTHING EXCEPT PART OF THE TEMPLATE!!! I TOOK THE HEADER, MADE IT MY OWN AS A SUBSECTION OF THE DISCUSSION. Oops, capslock :D. Is this ''really'' worth a month ban? Hell, look at all the contribs I have from my last ban! I think everyone knows my megalomania has subsided, and if blanking 1000 pages gave me a week ban, adopting a header should not give me a month...As J3D was quick to point out, Grim did something very similar and nothing happened to him. I will pull up that precedent and show it. Then if I was to be banned it would be complete and utter disrespect to the wiki's rules, not because you banned me, but because you banned someone for doing something exactly like, hell ''much'' better (I had a normal comment goin on) than what a sysop did, the latter being let off on all allegations.

You have just had a warning struck, so you arn't getting banned for this. It will be another warning. This is a simple case, Ion, you changed a template heading to be insulting to the author of the suggestion. You ''can'' edit that header to be descriptive (if the author forgets), but it has to be in clear good faith. It obviously should be in the form of "Discussion (suggestion name)".

Have you tried talking to him? I personally think it's more the fact that he's a complete and utter noob and doesn't get the wiki. In the first one, he's striking an unsigned comment, which is allowed. And the other two are him attempting to remove the suggestions from discussion, I think. :/ In any case, it doesn't look as though there is any malicious intent. Just being one of those annoying noobs who seem to have a completely epic first day which sees them in VB more times than most users in their entire wiki career. I will have a word with him, however, and let him know that he is bordering on getting the book thrown at him. -- {{User:Krazy_Monkey/sig}} 00:42, 1 August 2008 (BST)
:Cmon' cheese, 4 A/VB cases? really? This guy is actively laughing at his own vandalism as he posts it, and showing it online with little "XD" faces every time he breaks the rules by wiping suggestions or removing others' content. He's like a little kid running around kicking everyone in the building; someone needs to tell him he can't do this kind of crap and get away with it before it goes farther into his head.{{User:Techercizer/Sig}} 01:02, 1 August 2008 (BST)
 
The first one wasn't an unsigned comment, it was a response of mine that was properly paragraphed. It became orphaned from my signature when Shooty08 broke up my comment by posting within it, his next edit was to strike it. You'll notice I mention this premeditation above. You ask for the evidence, I bring it, and still nothing. Ignorance does not change the fact he breached established vandalism precedent. There's a reason the first offence doesn't carry a perma.... -- {{User:Iscariot/Signature}} 00:58, 1 August 2008 (BST)
:You'll also notice that because he moved his strikeouts around, my comment now appears to have been signed by him. This is now a case of impersonation that I'd like ruling on. -- {{User:Iscariot/Signature}} 01:03, 1 August 2008 (BST)
::Ok. Give me an '''exact''' diff link showing that and I will rule on it. -- {{User:Krazy_Monkey/sig}} 01:05, 1 August 2008 (BST)
:::No exact link as it was the result of conflicting edits, however [http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php?title=Talk:Suggestions&diff=next&oldid=1235170 here is where he strike my comment], having previous posted inside it, and [http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php?title=Talk:Suggestions&diff=next&oldid=1235173 here is where he removes those strikeouts] (so that his vandalism to the entire suggestion will work), but he leaves his signature. While I can remove the strikeouts and move his comments as it's vandalism to a community page and a comment in an incorrect place according to the page guidelines, I am unable to move that comment or delete the signature now acting as the impersonation due to previous precedent. -- {{User:Iscariot/Signature}} 01:11, 1 August 2008 (BST)
::::Ok. Number two is the one I'm after. It may not be intentional, but it is impersonation. Therefore, '''vandalism'''. You can quite happily delete the signature by the way. You aren't handless. It's your comment anyway. -- {{User:Krazy_Monkey/sig}} 01:16, 1 August 2008 (BST)
:::::'''ohohoho''', don't tell me that permanent impersonation counts as a seperate VB, cuz if this guy is subject to 5 A/VB cases in two and a half hours I will freaking wet myself from laughter.{{User:Techercizer/Sig}} 01:17, 1 August 2008 (BST) (DAMN EDIT CONFLICTS MONKEY!!!!!! =P jkng)

In the future please include ''all'' relevant diffs, in this case [http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php?title=Talk:Suggestions&diff=prev&oldid=1235132 this one] was missing. That being said, I am going to step in and say it's <big>'''Not Vandalism'''</big> and you're all reading way too much into what is easier explained as uninformed mistakes, for [http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php?title=Talk:Suggestions&diff=next&oldid=1235180 one]<sub>(again highly relevant, again not included)</sub>, he is allowed to remove his own suggestions whenever he feels like it. Frankly, I'm dumbfounded that [[User:Krazy_Monkey|Cheeseman]] missed this.--<small>[[User:Karek#K|Karek]]<sup><font face="Monotype Corsiva">[[User:Karek/ProjDev/OmegaMap|maps?!]]</font></sup></small> 02:12, 1 August 2008 (BST)
:I'm pretty sure that while he can remove his own suggestions, he can't remove other users comments, which he did.{{User:Techercizer/Sig}} 02:21, 1 August 2008 (BST)
::There was an obvious gap between the two, better people have been tricked by less, the same thing even, we've never ruled it vandalism and attempting to remove unsigned comments is hardly such without bad faith, it's something that is done in most voting sections of the wiki, [[Suggestions]] included, that he didn't know it's not done on [[Talk:Suggestions]] is the reasonable conclusion.--<small>[[User:Karek#K|Karek]]<sup><font face="Monotype Corsiva">[[User:Karek/ProjDev/OmegaMap|maps?!]]</font></sup></small> 02:41, 1 August 2008 (BST)
 
Im inclined to agree with karek here. Nothing here appears malicious. Just a series of errors that could have easily stopped if you had tried to explain to him how to use the tags and the rules of the page. I see nothing that indicates you have even attempted to do so. No. Id actually contend that you made this case in bad faith to persecute a person you consider an idiot without trying to help him out first. '''Not Vandalism''', just a newbie mistake. Warning is hereby overruled (2-1) and purged from his record. --[[User:Grim_s|The Grimch]] <sup>[[Project UnWelcome|U!]] [[Project Evil|E!]]</sup> 04:01, 1 August 2008 (BST)

Spambots

Spambots are to be reported on this page. New reports should be added to the top. Reports may be purged after one week.

There were a bunch of spambit-looking account creations on the 17th, these are the live ones at present.
