This edit. Now this is a strange one and will set precedent for the future. I'm probably going to put this under impersonation.

Simply put Extinction set up this page back in 2007, and as they are cheating scumbags, no-one noticed it until I did yesterday. The page is for a zombie 'super alliance', and on the membership it lists the RRF, Militant Order of Barhah and Hambargar Halparz. Not one of those groups ever agreed to be part of that alliance. Moloch (Papa of the RRF) removed the RRF and Bisfan (leader of the Halparz and representative of MoB) removed MoB and the Halparz. Zeug reverted these edits.

The page implies that the aforementioned groups agreed to join and support the alliance. This is impersonation of their wishes and standing in the community.

Also, since they are listed as members of the group, why do they not get editing privileges to remove their names? Page ownership rules clearly show that members of a group may make edits, if the above groups are members as Zeug claims, why can't they edit it?

I'd like each confirmed group (three so far) added against their wishes to count as a separate charge of impersonation. With the precedent that any entry on a group or suburb page that lists groups as allied or friendly be impersonation unless accurate according to the leadership of the mentioned groups. This precedent would not affect the rights of a group page owner to create KOS/Enemy/Shit lists and mention other groups in them.

This case is another example of Extinction having delusions of adequacy again. I doubt that the majority of the groups there would even deal with them at all. Failure to rule accordingly in this case will open the door to huge amounts of drama. Can you imagine the shitfest when The Dead create an alliance to devastate DH, and list DHPD as founder members?

Well, it doesnt appear to actually be a group. Its a browser covering a bunch of different groups forums and such, not an alliance, despite the categorisation. Its not actually vandalism as a result, however i am adding a notice explicitely spelling that out onn the page itself and im removing the group categories. If those are readded i will treat this as an alliance page and retroactively change this ruling to vandalism. For now though, its not vandalism. --The Grimch ^{U! E!} 12:50, 21 September 2008 (BST)

K, thats all done. Ill keep my eye on it from here. --The Grimch ^{U! E!} 12:54, 21 September 2008 (BST)

This is a case for arbitration. As far as I can see, Extinction have no case for claiming that the RRF, Haparz, MoB (or pretty much any of the other groups) are participating, or "covered" by their web tool, given that it is simply an inclusion of their wiki pages, and dedicated "shoutboxs" that were set up by extinction themselves and is open to all. Given that it is not a group page, the leadership of these groups should be free to remove any inclusion of themselves on the wiki page. If a group doesn't want their name to be associated with an external web tool, they have the right to remove it from the page. Not vandalism, take it to arbitration, please -- boxy ^{talk • i} 14:16 21 September 2008 (BST)

Wiped Grim's talk page.--SirArgo ^Talk 18:11, 19 September 2008 (BST)

Blocked for a day. It looks like some of his edits were purged so I didn't make it a perma. --  AHLGTG THE END IS NIGH! 18:14, 19 September 2008 (BST)

He wiped my talk page and changed my user page to calling me an asshole and to find him in game. Who is he? --Sonny Corleone ^{DORIS MSD pr0n} 19:31, 19 September 2008 (BST)

Vandalise this close to a history wipe and its your own damned fault if you get a nasty punishment. I have upgraded this to permaban. --The Grimch ^{U! E!} 23:58, 19 September 2008 (BST)

Using the unfortunate timing of vandalism close to a history wipe is not an excuse to give an instant permaban when the user has a clear vandal data history, and contributions back to July 07. I've unblocked, and will warn this user -- boxy ^{talk • i} 16:26 20 September 2008 (BST)

Wiped a nice chunk of this page. It could be nothing but I'm a) too tired, and b) working at 7 in the morning and need bed so I'll leave it to someone else to decide. -- Cheese 00:25, 17 September 2008 (BST)

Judging from what was cleared and from the only other edit available, this looks to be vandalism. --  AHLGTG THE END IS NIGH! 00:50, 17 September 2008 (BST)

Ah this fellow again. Yes its Vandalism, and yes you should have banned him for it. Im banning him for 48 hours in accordance with escalations. Yes i know there was a history, wipe, but he's been inactive ever since then. Let it be a lesson not to reoffend so soon after a history wipe. --The Grimch ^{U! E!} 03:51, 17 September 2008 (BST)

Vandalised the Dead Dudes page here and here.He also has vandalized the Millen Hills page here and the Lamport Hills page here in order to smear the name of Dead Dudes. He is bringing an in-game vendetta into the wiki and is just deleting large amounts of text and sometimes listing himself as group leader, declaring the rightful leaders as enemies and other malicious lies.Basically, he is angry with the group in the game, and thinks it is humorous to vandalize the wiki page. He has gloated several times in-game about "fixing" the Dead Dudes wiki page.He may also use alts to do so.Sorry if I did any of this wrong,as I had hoped never to have to do this sort of thing, but I feel my (and Dead Dudes) hand has been forced--A combat medic in the service of Dead Dudes of Lamport Hills. He wandered Malton in the time after the outbreak, homeless and purposeless, until he came to Lamport Hills and the Sidney Arms.

Dead Dudes

Man, these guys make good films! We support the Dead Dudes! 6 21:32, 15 September 2008 (BST) Both you and User:Ryannx25 are in trouble here. You are both Warned, (But User:Ryannx25 came close to perma, and i would have if it werent for his first contrib). I had a little look through the lovely contribs, and your vandalism of a page created for his/her character was also appalling. Tit for tat vandalism is not the answer, and some of us sysops look deeper than the average case and find out all your dirty little secrets, so keep your hands clean and instead of resorting to petty revenge vandalism, clean it up and ask them to stop. If they dont, bring it here instead of starting a vandal war, or you will BOTH be in trouble. I am also covering, in this vandalism case, everyone inviolved, so User:MCD24 can join you with a warning for this contribution to the same page you vandalised. --The Grimch U! E! 23:27, 16 September 2008 (BST) Understood. Although I must say the templates I used should be removed if using them is considered vandalism (Also I had thought the Neice page was created by MCD, as Ryannx25 has another page for his character). I should have looked at the history and seen that MCD had changed his page rather than creating it.I didn't. That's my mistake and I apologize for it. But regardless, lesson learned (by me anyway as you won't ever have a spot of trouble from me ever again). I won't be speaking to Ryannx25 about this as he has proven to be completely irrational and unwilling to listen to reason when it comes to his feud with our group, but I won't ever touch another page on this wiki that has anything to do with him,his alts/proxys,or groups, as I really want nothing to do with him in any way.---A combat medic in the service of Dead Dudes of Lamport Hills.

Banned, reverted by myself and a few others who started before i saw him. Blocked his proxy too. --The Grimch U! E! 12:01, 15 September 2008 (BST) User:J2DaGangsta J2DaGangsta (talk | contribs | logs | block | IP Check | vndl data | discuss) Well...this isn't really a vandal report...it's more of a request. You see...J2DaGangsta is my old account, but I forgot the password and came up with Axe Hack. This has been on my mind ever since I got Axe Hack, and now I finally get around to this...Can you please block my old username? I would hate it if someone hacked into it and I get blamed for it. The password isn't alpha-numerical if I remember correctly, so it's pretty easy to hack. Thanks! --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 21:39, 12 September 2008 (BST) I think the chances of it being hacked are pretty small but just to put your mind at ease, I shall block it. The account has made two edits, both of them to the user namespace (assuming the rest have been wiped by the recent purge) way back in 2006. -- Cheese 22:04, 12 September 2008 (BST) Nah. It's made more. The rest were deleted when I put that group page I made with that username up for delete. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 22:05, 12 September 2008 (BST) User:Doudomida Doudomida (talk | contribs | logs | block | IP Check | vndl data | discuss) Vandalised the Malton Uprising page here, and here.

It's not like he replaced the whole page with "Secruss is a dick" or something, and it seemed silly to make a wiki-drama fuss about it if I didn't have to, so I just left a comment on his talk page about the matter. But considering he responded with more extensive vandalism...yeah, thanks for officially reporting it and warning him. --Jen 19:55, 10 September 2008 (BST) User:Sergeant Waffles Sergeant Waffles (talk | contribs | logs | block | IP Check | vndl data | discuss) Vandalism --Sonny Corleone DORIS MSD pr0n 00:47, 9 September 2008 (BST) Warned --  AHLGTG THE END IS NIGH! 01:02, 9 September 2008 (BST) Because i was asked to check this out on my talk. Checkuser shows that this account shares the same IP as User:Private Mendoza. Early contribution here indicates a self described familiarity with the wiki, and is a pretty obvious attempt to stop from being hit by the project welcome crowd. Given this information, i am certain that this is a sock puppet of User:Private Mendoza and as a result this account has been permabanned and the warning is being shifted accordingly. That is all. --The Grimch U! E! 03:18, 9 September 2008 (BST) User:Barak Barak (talk | contribs | logs | block | IP Check | vndl data | discuss) Vandalised another users page under alt account User:Epiklulz (Confirmed through checkuser). Alt banned, main Warned --The Grimch U! E! 08:53, 7 September 2008 (BST) I'm here to vouch for Barak. He told me his account was hacked by his roommate, who did the vandalism out of malice, and I believe him. His main account is blocked at this time. Is this permanent? And is there a process for an appeals? I also note that the individual who did so much vandalism yesterday is only warned, yet "Barak's" sole act of vandalism (again, an act done by his roommate,) has resulted in a complete ban. Is this standard policy? Thank you for your consideration. --Violet Begonia Dean MCM MOB 02:25, 8 September 2008 (BST) He hasnt been banned. His IP has been blocked as part of the altban due to a misclick (I did not unselect one aspect of it), ill rework the things to let him back in under his main, but that it. In any case, all evidence indicates the account is his, and until some evidence comes up that says otherwise, im going to go with it. In any case, a sob story about being hacked makes me even more suspicious because, quite simply, no one needs to hack his wiki account to do what has been done. --The Grimch U! E! 02:57, 8 September 2008 (BST) Especially considering the confession he gave me in a wiki email. Need to check that more often. --The Grimch U! E! 03:11, 8 September 2008 (BST) You misunderstand what happened Grim; I saved my password to the network and he got a hold of it. I agree that it would've been far too much effort to hack to do what he did, but being that he didn't have to do anything to *get* the password, he decided to use it. It was my fault for letting access be granted to my account so readily, and I apologize. Thank you for your help on this. I appreciate it.--Barak 03:11, 8 September 2008 (BST) User:Christian O'Luggar Christian O'Luggar (talk | contribs | logs | block | IP Check | vndl data | discuss) Warned for his vandal spree.

Precedent on A/VB clearly show that altering the heading of another, even on a talk page, for any reason, is an act of vandalism. -- . . <== DDR Approved Editor 22:17, 2 September 2008 (BST) No, changing a header without good reason, make a fool of or anything that is clearly bad faith is. Otherwise I'd have to warn Grim for this. --  AHLGTG THE END IS NIGH! 22:21, 2 September 2008 (BST) Precedent case in question. Please note the ruling sysop's direct quote; "You can't edit someone else's comment. Adding that image made it seem like the original poster made that headline a link to that image.". Please note, no disclaimer for good faith or organising. Swiers responds with "a lot of users change the headers that discussions get posted to on their talk page's. If we dug them all up, we should probably be banning several such users. What's the difference in this case?" Ruling sysop responds with"This was reported. You dig up more cases I'll vote them Vandalism. The user didn't create that header and didn't have the right to make it redirect to a macro." My post and header was changed to something I did not create. It creates the impression I posted in a way other than I did. Precedent backed. -- . . <== DDR Approved Editor 22:34, 2 September 2008 (BST) That's not the same. The header was changed to a picture telling the user to get real friends. The change in this case is adding the (correct) name. Also, see here. Lastly, precedent isn't law, I'm not going to follow it blindly when the cases are clearly not the same. --  AHLGTG THE END IS NIGH! 22:45, 2 September 2008 (BST) I'm with Gnome on this one.
