This page is for the reporting of vandalism within the Urban Dead wiki, as defined by vandalism policy. On this wiki, the punishment for Vandalism is temporary banning, but due to security concerns, the ability to mete out this punishment is restricted to System Operators. As such, regular users will need to lodge a report for a Vandal to be banned from the wiki. For consistency and accountability, System Operators are requested to note on this board their actions in dealing with Vandals.
Guidelines for Vandalism Reporting
In dealing with Vandalism, time is often of the essence. As such, we ask that all users include the following information in a Vandalism report:
- A link to the pages in question.
- Preferably bolded for visibility. If the Vandalism is occurring over a sufficiently large number of pages, instead include a time range of the vandalism attempt, or alternatively, a link to the first vandalised page. This allows us to quickly find the damage so we can quickly assess the situation.
- The user name of the Vandal.
- This allows us to more easily identify the culprit, and to check details.
- A signed datestamp.
- For accountability purposes, we ask that you record in your request your user name and the time you lodged the report.
- Please report at the top.
- There's conflict with where to post and a lot of the reports are missed. If it's placed at the top of the page it's probably going to be seen and dealt with.
If you see Vandalism in progress, don't wait for System Operators to deal with it, as there may be no System Operator online at the time. Lodge the report, then start reverting pages back to their original form. This can be done by going to the "History" tab at the top of the page, and finding the last edit before the Vandal's attack. When a System Operator is available, they'll assess the situation, and if the report is legitimate, we will take steps to either warn the vandal, or ban them if they are on their second warning.
If the page is long, you can add new reports by editing the top report and placing your new report above its header in the edit screen.
Before Submitting a Report
- This page, Vandal Banning, deals with bad-faith breaches of official policy.
- Interpersonal complaints are better sorted out at UDWiki:Administration/Arbitration.
- As much as is practical, assume good faith and try to iron out problems with other users one to one, only using this page as a last resort.
- Avoid submitting reports which are petty.

Impersonation. --VVV RPMBG 23:26, 7 March 2011 (UTC)
Not Vandalism - Warning retracted. Should probs have checkusered before warning. -- ϑanceϑanceℜevolution 01:03, 8 March 2011 (UTC)
- Also, remember to link to case when A/VDing :( -- ϑanceϑanceℜevolution 01:04, 8 March 2011 (UTC)
Actually, fucking facepalm at myself. I've just read the discussion this case was involved in. Was said user trying to pass an alt account off as an enemy, and then accidentally signed as the wrong one?? Ugh, fail ddr. -- ϑanceϑanceℜevolution 01:07, 8 March 2011 (UTC)
- (and you did checkuser him before issuing the warning anyways, so sorry about the above) -- ϑanceϑanceℜevolution 01:13, 8 March 2011 (UTC)
Looking at the checkuser logs, it seems like Lawliet was purposefully speaking with a forked tongue. I'm really on the fence about this one, since it is at the same time an underhanded use of wiki alts and likely done in bad faith, but also futile (RRF doesn't go out of its way to kill mouthy harmanz or do favours for strangers), not one of the established clear-cut wiki alt abuses and something done by a newb. However, I think the bad faith part is the decisive one, and thus, Vandalism. -- Spiderzed▋ 01:22, 8 March 2011 (UTC)
- It's really going to be a discussion point here. Had I realised she was deliberately masking her alts to deceive, I probably wouldn't have mentioned it and therefore I might be misconducted for this (which I won't mind). I don't know the extent of this entire thing so I can't tell what is the right thing to do just now especially since a case exactly like this hasn't come up at all that I can remember. -- ϑanceϑanceℜevolution 01:28, 8 March 2011 (UTC)
- At least I won't drag either of you to misconduct. I could see Vapor's reasoning for acting swiftly to put a stop to this show, but also your reasoning for withdrawing the warning, as this could be a complicated topic. There was no clear-cut "right" approach in this one. -- Spiderzed▋ 01:35, 8 March 2011 (UTC)
- Vap didn't do anything wrong. he used checkuser but I'm pretty sure he didn't check the IP which revealed the alts L is using. Hence, his view of the case was a textbook case of vandalism and there's nothing wrong with insta-ruling on that case. With a tie in votes, the end ruling is not vandalism so when contested the ruling should go down. Besides a possible checkuser breach of privacy by myself, everything here is dandy but perhaps wait for another ruling by an op before reinstating the warning, methinks? -- ϑanceϑanceℜevolution 01:38, 8 March 2011 (UTC)
- One former op has already disagreed with my reasoning on the talk page, so you can bet that I wait a bit to the give the rest a chance to add their opinion. No need to jump the gun twice. -- Spiderzed▋ 01:42, 8 March 2011 (UTC)
- It's not checkuser abuse, it's relevant to it not being impersonation. Any not Vandalism ruling would have required as much. --Karekmaps?! 01:44, 8 March 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks. My thoughts were the same until I realised it was a deliberate cover and not just some noob who was signing as say, a lost account or on their known alts behalf. Aware of cases like this, I was open to the idea of being put forward for wrongly revealing checkuser info. But in retrospect they pretty much shot themself in the foot by cocking up the signing and putting their accounts in this situation. -- ϑanceϑanceℜevolution 03:55, 8 March 2011 (UTC)
- You're covered on this stuff usually. When it's part of an active VB case and relevant to decisions, that kind of thing is a lot less sensitive than when it's pulled out of the blue in spite. Talking about checkuser info for a VB case concerning misuse of alts is par for the course, and I'd probably spit blood if I saw someone seriously take an op to A/M for doing their job properly based on an irrelevant "precedent". Anyway, with the case at hand, I'm inclined to agree with Vapor and Spider, as this seems a deliberate, albeit failed, attempt to misuse alts in a sockpuppet manner. Vandalism. Also keep an eye on account activity for the next few days maybe, if one alt is mostly a sock it should be banned as part of this escalation. No need to hit one now in case they end up being used right. 04:27, 8 March 2011 (UTC)

Yeah thourough checkusering after the warning was issued revealed what was going on and I'm fine withdrawing the impersonation ruling since its obvious it is not. However, like Spidey I believe its still a bad faith issue. Coupled with nefarious alt use, I'm still ruling vandlaism. ~ 03:37, 8 March 2011
Vandalism - while using a wiki alt is not encouraged, it is still allowed. However, when they are used to attempt decieve an enemy, that is bad faith. Seems clear that this is the intent here, so the alt should be banned, and the main account gets an escalation, and it's not a breach of privacy to reveal who owns the main account either -- boxy talk • teh rulz 12:22 8 March 2011 (BST)

Tallying this after 5 rulings in, we are at a 4:1 majority for a warning (assuming DDR sticks with NV). Of the usual suspects on A/VB, only Ross and Thad are missing. Unless someone beats me to it or this gets surprisingly overturned, I will set the verdict and issue a proper warning in some hours. -- Spiderzed▋ 16:00, 8 March 2011 (UTC)
- So Lawliet Yraola has replied to the previous warning posted on their talk page and appears to be claiming that they are not using alts. It should be noted since it may affect actions taken. We're possibly in ban avoidance territory now. ~ 16:13, 8 March 2011
- Because of the confusing nature of the "impersonation" I don't think Vapor should have insta-warned especially since there was no direct threat to speak off, but beside that everything else has been said, so I'll leave it at that. --Thadeous Oakley Talk 16:30, 8 March 2011 (UTC)
I have nothing of any real value to comment. Hi Karek, good to see you. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 16:32, 8 March 2011 (UTC)
I'm fence sitting with this one because I think alt abuse on this scale is sort of harmless in most ways except politically (that's assuming she isn't zerging ingame alongside this), so having acknowledged the views of either side, I'll probably just leave my ruling as Not Vandalism but Warn her as per the vote. As for the alt, I'd prefer it not banned because bar the act from the combined accounts (which I put as an action from her main account) it hasn't really vandalised, my personal preference is to just tell her the rules about alts and honesty and not vandalising, but I'd prefer we have a casual vote over it to see what should be done with it. I haven't banned the alt in the meantime. -- ϑanceϑanceℜevolution 22:26, 8 March 2011 (UTC)

Removing himself from text-raper list without permission by the RG/FANNY. I'd claim three edit rule, but would like a second opinion before taking such a harsh step as a permaban. -- Spiderzed▋ 14:13, 18 February 2011 (UTC)
A little guidance would have been nice. -- ϑanceϑanceℜevolution 14:18, 18 February 2011 (UTC)
Oh, and Spiderzed, this user doesn't comply with the three edit rule. It's very important you understand that rule before using it, as unintentionally patronising as I sound. -- ϑanceϑanceℜevolution 14:20, 18 February 2011 (UTC)
- The three edit rule is pretty simple... 3 edits, none of them "constructive" and at least one of them deamed to be vandalism. This guy has only edited once, and that is to remove potential "slander" against his "good" (lol) name. It's clearly vandalism, but doesn't warrent a permban, unless he comes back and continues in this vein. Occasionally these types of accounts get with the program, but it's rare. We've got to give them the chance to learn the rules.
That said, some accounts have been banned because they have made their intentions abundantly clear, even before editing 3 times. But they are special circumstances, not this, which is a run of the mill, in-game griefer -- boxy talk • teh rulz 14:31 18 February 2011 (BST)- Have re-checked and seen it that it is a minimum of three edits, not a maximum of as I had in mind. (Not that I would have been the first to misapply it at first :p ) But as I consider permabans as a serve step, I'd first check back for a second opinion anyway, unless it is to stop an ongoing wild vandal spree. -- Spiderzed▋ 14:33, 18 February 2011 (UTC)

Soft Warning - I wasn't going to rule in this case because it is obviously was just a joke to begin with and not worth escalating over. I would have thought the other ops would recognize that and this would just fall off the vandal page at the end of the month. Seeind all the Valndalism rulings above I'm not sure that will happen. So I'm going to suggest a soft warning. Doesn't need to be escalated. ~ 15:11, 17 February 2011 (UTC)

Soft. Once in a while a joke on an admin page is fine, but with a second joke so quickly after the first it gains the potential to get out of hand. -- Spiderzed▋ 14:12, 16 February 2011 (UTC)
Whatever is softer than soft - Neither of these were genuinely disruptive and neither was intended to cause any ill effect. Especially the demotions one, since that's such a low traffic page, it's really not an issue for the occasional gaming. A/PM should probably be treated the same as other joke bids and left alone unless it becomes a serial issue. 14:50, 16 February 2011 (UTC)

Got into a bit of an edit war with DeWolf, likely with the knowledge of the arbies case, policy discussion and template discussion surrounding the BCH and the Dulson group listing fiasco. Said edit war ended with this edit, which I believe to be bad faith, as the intent was clearly to cause grief. ~ 05:42, 14 February 2011 (UTC)

Action taken | Warned |
The guy is inactive for years, though it shouldn't matter. Scroll down on his user page. It's explicit content, so be warned. Interestingly enough, it's not an image, but extensive wiki code. Meaning I can remove it from his page but it will stay into the page history. Suggesting deleting his page (thus the history), then copy the original content back without the "image". --Thadeous Oakley Talk 14:56, 13 February 2011 (UTC)
Not vandalism. It's a reproduction of the classic Goatse meme. Displaying it in userspace is well in line with the guidelines. -- Spiderzed▋ 15:11, 13 February 2011 (UTC)
- Meme or not, there's a load of precedent for deleting pornographic content outright. User page rights aren't unlimited, as this should exemplify (another example would be impersonation). --Thadeous Oakley Talk 15:19, 13 February 2011 (UTC)
- Most recent example. a.) Image was more explicite then this cheap wikicode replica and b.) posted on an admin page, not in userspace - still only a soft warning, and in userspace, I wouldn't even deal that. -- Spiderzed▋ 15:29, 13 February 2011 (UTC)
- And the scheduled pornography deletion was revoked. After Nipplegate. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 19:28, 13 February 2011 (UTC)
- Wasn't revoked because porn was okay, it was revoked because porn was something that had to be dealt with on a case by case basis by the sysops to make sure tenuous things weren't being deleted unilaterally.

Vandalism - errr. yeah we have something called a TOU of which the first clause this breaks. I wonder, that could have possibly been why the original goatse wensite went down! I'm actually shocked you're calling this not vandalism. No, not because this is goatse, but because we have so, SO much established precedent for removing offensive AND pornographic imagery, of which goatse is both (offensive because of intent of using the well established meme). Wow. you all shock me. -- ϑanceϑanceℜevolution 22:50, 13 February 2011 (UTC)

- For the record, Vandalism --Thadeous Oakley Talk 22:53, 13 February 2011 (UTC)
- "Please do not cite this page as a reason why something is a problem". Failing that, it specifies "illegal pornography". This isn't illegal pornography. 22:55, 13 February 2011 (UTC)
- Yeah, and regular ponorgraphy is already vandalism on this wiki, regardless of TOU standards. -- ϑanceϑanceℜevolution 04:25, 14 February 2011 (UTC)
- The first paragraph of the TOS is built around vague legal terms. It depends on context, precedent and the evaluation of the judge to be filled out. Personally, I think goatse is established enough in web culture (and tolerated on enough web servers with similar TOS) to not be deemed as "illegal pornography" by today's context. -- Spiderzed▋ 22:59, 13 February 2011 (UTC)
- As it's been decided in precedent on this wiki that goatse is vandalism, that arguments doens't really fly.--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 23:01, 13 February 2011 (UTC)

- Thad, no one said it wasn't pornography. Just that pornography, especially the way it's been posted, isn't worth escalating for. Ever since the old puritans there's been a move away from doing so, and recent precedent has been more of the wrist-slapping variety. In fact, the last porn-related case centred more on admin-page spam than content. This just isn't worth escalating over, since it disturbs and disrupts nothing on the wiki, and exists in a user's namespace out of the way of regular traffic. The argument isn't about whether it's porn or not. It's that porn's okay. 23:10, 13 February 2011 (UTC)

- Then start being right. You're pulling up udated precedent that's been over-ridden by newer, more pertinent precedent (as newer cases take priority, being issued by members of this team and not of an older team, and as the newer case and this one both concern facsimiles more than images). Stop pretending that this old nonsense is more pressing than newer cases. 23:23, 13 February 2011 (UTC)
- Lol, not actually how precedent works.--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 23:24, 13 February 2011 (UTC)
- I don't talk about wiki precedent. I talk about Poundhost precedent - it's the only relevant one for TOS issues. Even if we stick with wiki precedent, why insist on the one of yesteryear when there is more recent stuff on offensive/vulgar/pr0n material? -- Spiderzed▋ 23:21, 13 February 2011 (UTC)
- If we accept that departing from precedent is perfectly acceptable, as you seem to be saying by the fact that we should use newer precedent, why use precedent at all? Why not just leave it up to the whim of the system operators on this case?--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 23:23, 13 February 2011 (UTC)
- Precedent should be a litmus test and nothing more. If an admin team feels the right decision goes against precedent, they're free to decide that way, which is how the last case was ruled upon. So either you admit that precedent is not law, and stop forcing a bullshit one at people, or learn to accept precedents as they apply, and use the more relevant one. Either way, stop being so fucking obtuse. 23:27, 13 February 2011 (UTC)
- Stop acting like during the recent precedent porn was somehow found "okay". The image got deleted for a reason. --Thadeous Oakley Talk 23:26, 13 February 2011 (UTC)
- It was ruled NV and that's the point. 23:27, 13 February 2011 (UTC)
- Yon, you miss the point about the vague legal terms. What I try to tell is that Poundhost doesn't care about the little fiefdom of them that UDWiki is, and especially not about our rulings. It's completely up to them to decide what a violation of the TOS is. What we say means jack to them.
As for the wiki side, see Mis. Our evaluation has evolved. (Check also Gnome's comments on the talk page about the context of the 2008 bans, it's enlightening.) -- Spiderzed▋ 23:29, 13 February 2011 (UTC)- I haven't cited TOS once, but breaches of it have been ruled vandalism before (see any case made by Conn). Your argument about the wiki side, however, shows absolutely no understanding of how precedent works. Precedent either needs to be over-ruled by a higher judicial office (we have only one), deemed unjust (we have no process of judicial review) or re-evaluated by an equal court, if such a clause exists. Either we have this cluase, in which case any old precedent is useless, or we don't in which case it's the earliest precedent that matters, not the latest.--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 23:33, 13 February 2011 (UTC)
- Bullshit. This case is about the legitimacy of porn here, not about the punishment of it. The precedent case specificies the image wasn't allowed. --Thadeous Oakley Talk 23:35, 13 February 2011 (UTC)
- Actually the uploader of the last image consented to its deletion and this case isn't about an image which can be deleted. 23:36, 13 February 2011 (UTC)

- Don't play me a fool. Porn=Porn, image or not. We can't say if consent or not would have mattered so this is moot --Thadeous Oakley Talk 23:39, 13 February 2011 (UTC)
- An image can be deleted right off the wiki. Text needs to be meticulously deleted from the page history and I'm not consenting to that becoming a viable tactic for whenevr an op finds something they don't like. Don't open a new can of worms just because you don't like a grainy pixelated render of a man's bum. 23:42, 13 February 2011 (UTC)
- Excuse me, as I've been teached and grown up in a legal system that isn't as heavily built around precedent as the English/'merican one, but isn't re-applying similar cases to the same op team effectively "re-evaluation by an equal court"? It's not like we have, want or need the bureaucracy for a full-blown legal system with higher and lower courts, so re-evaluating as cases come up is our standard way of revising and refining judiciary practice. -- Spiderzed▋ 23:45, 13 February 2011 (UTC)
- In which case we do things case by case, and there's no need for precedent. See the dilemna?--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 23:46, 13 February 2011 (UTC)
- Precedent isn't 100% binding on UDWiki. Never has been. It's useful as a shortcut for standard cases as impersonation, or for backing up your position. But it doesn't substitute the op decision, particularly as op teams, the community and the customs change with time. -- Spiderzed▋ 23:51, 13 February 2011 (UTC)

- If they're on the stats page, then they're clearly active enough to maintain a valid page if they so desire. If they don't, then a mainspace page that doesn't exist is fair game for anyone to create. Now come up with a reason why it is vandalism other than "Mis did it". 22:24, 1 February 2011 (UTC)
- Their leader is permabanned, as you knew when you created the page, so that argument has no credit. It's blatant vandalism under almost every precedent on the wiki, so I'm going off now, and I'll leave it to the next few sysops to arrive to rule on that precedent.--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 22:25, 1 February 2011 (UTC)
- If that's true, find me precedent whereby creating a new mainspace page constitutes of impersonation or group page vandalism. Casting my memory back, the closest parallel to this case to be found is this, as an off-topic mainspace page. 22:33, 1 February 2011 (UTC)

- As I've stated, trolling alone is not cause for a vandalism case, and I've already explained that I'm not impersonating anyone (at no point did I make any claim to be a member of said group). 22:20, 1 February 2011 (UTC)
- Clearly this is trolling and impersonation, and since you knew it was a speedy deletion when you made it, a stellar example of bad faith.--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 22:19, 1 February 2011 (UTC)
Vandalism You aren't a member of the group, read policy you daft fool. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 22:36, 1 February 2011 (UTC)
- I'm still going to re-iterate the point that a non-extant page created by someone at no point claiming to be what they aren't is a huge stretch as regards impersonation. 22:38, 1 February 2011 (UTC)
- It probably is. UDWiki:Specific Case Editing Guidelines is a much more relevant collection of words. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 22:43, 1 February 2011 (UTC)
- It's a nice collection of words. It's also missing anything about situations like this. No extant page = not editing someone else's page. 22:45, 1 February 2011 (UTC)
- "Groups, for the most part, have sole property of their Group page on the wiki," As you've already confirmed above, you're not a member of the group, you weren't adding an NPOV section, you can't justify it as a "Good Faith Edit", and as you have said above, you knew the page had previously existed, otherwise you wouldn't claim it was a recreation. Its trolling, pure and simple. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 22:49, 1 February 2011 (UTC)
- So you're saying that any name previously used by a group that's since been deleted is off-bounds for anyone else to edit? Why do we even delete group pages if that's the case then? 22:51, 1 February 2011 (UTC)
- Not at all Mis. I'm stating that you clearly knew this was corns group. I know this because you commented on conversations specifically about the group, you knew about its deletion, you're actively pursuing its members, and now all of a sudden "Its a coincedence I Iz creating a group with the same name." is that your argument? Please. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 22:58, 1 February 2011 (UTC)
- That's not my argument. I clearly knew the page previously existed and have never claimed not to. I'm saying it was deleted, rendered non-existent, freeing up the name in the mainspace due to it not being a page any more, and then I used it. I didn't claim to belong to the group, I didn't make it a page about the group, I didn't even include links to anything connected to the group at all. I took the page name and used it for something else, when the group who had it, and lost it, no longer were making use of it. If this is the route this case takes, it will become a bad can of worms in the future - remember the EVIL drama? There was no clear precedent of who owned what back then. If you now try to claim that deleted page names still belong to groups who aren't using them, things will eventually get ugly in future edit wars. I fail to see a genuine reason why I can't lay claim to a deleted group's page name, since they aren't using it, and it's essentially been freed up for use for other purposes. Yes, the intention was to troll, and I freely admit that, but that's not vandalism in and of itself. No actual impersonation was done, and since that's what I'm being cited for, I'm fighting it. To sum up: unused page name taken, no impersonation committed, so why vandalism? 23:06, 1 February 2011 (UTC)
- On this wiki, we define Vandalism as "an edit not made in a good-faith attempt to improve this wiki". Line one of the vandalism policy. You freely admit your intention was to troll. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 23:12, 1 February 2011 (UTC)
- So rather than back up your original verdict (which is wrong), you're just changing it? I'd have argued less if you insisted on mere bad faith to begin with (since there's been recent examples of trolling A/A cases let off as not vandalism to use as precedent). 23:17, 1 February 2011 (UTC)
- Lot of indent going on here. I'm not changing my verdict, I was answering a direct question. The page existed, it had an edit history, it still does, you edited a group page you clearly knew was originally created by another user, knowing full well that you were editing a page you had no right to. As for your "its like Evil all over again." argument, it isn't. That was a fight over a redirect of a shared acronym (mainspace page), not the pages themselves. (group page) You should probably read the specific case editing guidelines sometime. You want to bring up previous cases you think are relevant, be my guest. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 23:28, 1 February 2011 (UTC)
- I specifically stated I wasn't comparing this to the EVIL case. In no uncertain terms. So you've just proven you're not actually paying attention. Page DID exist. Then DIDN'T. It was deleted, and therefore ceased to be a page. Less than a dozen users would even have been notified that it had been a page to begin with. Do, for example, Silent Running still own their page? Do Degenerates own that page? No. They don't. Because those are deleted pages. And this is no different. And I already pointed out that SCEG doesn't bear relevence here the last time you tried foisting it on me. 23:37, 1 February 2011 (UTC)

Don't mind if I stop with the indents do you? "remember the EVIL drama? There was no clear precedent of who owned what back then." - Your words and wrong , There was clear precedent. Lemons owned lemons, Irksome, owned irksome, no one owned EVIL as it wasn't a group page. Again I encourage you to find ANY examples where Group pages have been recreated as Flaming pages directed at the original group? Explain In Any way how stopping people recreating group pages they had nothing to do with in the first place is "opening a can of worms". As for "less than a dozen people would have known" that has nothing to do with the case. And as a sysop when editing the page you would have clearly seen at the top of the page there was a deleted history you could restore. I believe that degenerates still own the page, so does silent running. Explain to me why they don't. Also, as you know that their is a group called wotans... why wouldn't you follow the wiki naming preference from forever stating that your group was wotans.... (new)? Oh and you still didn't bring up those cases you threatened to earlier. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 00:06, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
Vandalism - It's clear that the intent of the edit was done in bad faith. No amount of red tape can erase that. ~ 23:02, 1 February 2011 (UTC)
Clearly Vandalism. Newbies get way with this sort of stuff. But not you, Missy. The content was obviously designed to annoy the actual group, who's leader is banned, which is why his version of the page is deleted. An accurate, NPOV version would have been acceptable, but placing the star of david and a jewish song on it isn't -- boxy talk • teh rulz 00:01 2 February 2011 (BST)
Vandalism. As Vapor. And as far as what Boxy said, I don't even give noobs who do this the time of day. -- ϑanceϑanceℜevolution 00:10, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
So that's Vandalism then. I'm assuming a formal warning? --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 10:45, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
Yeah done. Warned. -- ϑanceϑanceℜevolution 11:27, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
