I'm not sure if you keep up with Homestuck as avidly as I do (thanks for that, by the way!), but I just about died when I found out this actually exists and has troll reviews. What I wouldn't give to get an entire edited copy of it...
Hahaha yes of course they exist! I used to read those books when I was little. If only Hussie could legally sell DS' annotated copy...
The Mighty Boosh...
NOEL FIELDING IS MY FAVORITE but I haven't watched it yet! It's on a long list of things/shows to catch up on after Buzzcocks, IQ, IT Crowd, not to mention new shows like Sherlock and Doctor Who, not to even think of talking about Game of Thrones, Parks and Recreation, The Office, The Big Bang Theory.......
NOEL FIELDING IS SO GREAT! HOMGGGG~ I love him on the Mighty Boosh (It's on Youtube now! Yeaaah! ;D) He can pull some of those outfits off really well. ;D Hahaha. Game of Thrones is good. The Office (British or American?) is entertaining, Big Bang theory (My favorite so far) is great in general. Love these shows so much.
to much "Blue" on the recent changes
For what it's worth
I'm with you on this one. Just a shame that the others here can't see the troll for the trees.
C'est la vie. Thanks, though.
While I admittedly wasn't there for May 2011, you guys really need to get over Human. Everything'll be fine, and, much as we fantasize about having the "right" user be around, who comes and who goes doesn't really affect that much.
What else is new?
Either Ace just called me a bitch, or he still doesn't know you can reply to individual comments in LQT.
Did you just threaten a "revolution?"
Hi Blue,
No -- or at least I didn't mean to sound like I was threatening anything. What I was trying to express in colourful language was the idea that mod-on-mod tensions that escalated into HCM outbreaks are probably the biggest threat to the online community's stability, and the system, such as it is, will pretty much fall apart if they continue. We can handle trolls; we can handle users being petty and dickish with each other; but we can't handle people with enhanced user rights and a particular role to play in the system stirring up more tensions than there already are.
I voted for you and always thought that you were a solid mod and a valued editor. I have "faith" (as much as one can use that word here) that you will continue to be so.
Just to add my two cents, I agree with Foster here in every regard.
I'd still like somebody to explain why Blue is in the shitter when it was Human who once again stirred the pot? It was his pathetic, obnoxious, rude over-reaction to her private communique that started yet another HCM on RW. Not that I didn't expect it, of course. Just a shame I didn't realise that I shared the wiki with so many fools to be suckered in by that sad, sad old man.
To be honest, I have no intention of jumping into this HCM if I can avoid it. Rather, I just saw what P-Foster had written and decided that I agree with it no matter who he's telling it to. Blue, Human, Nx, myself, Brxbrx, Trent.... It doesn't matter. The point was that P-Foster's comment is something I agree with no matter the context. If you want to copy-paste it on Human's talkpage to use it to go after him, please be my guest.
I really didn't intend for this message to be an occasion to re-visit that particular issue, but a chance for me to clarify a particular comment that I made. Let sleeping dogs lie.
But not unfounded, given his actions and attitude here in the past. Blue did the right thing by contacting him privately to let him know how she feels. Human then acted like a complete cunt by posting her messages and doing a Hurlbut-esque "No! They're MY messages! I can post them!"
He is an idiot and a troll and this episode proves it. Him and Marcus are probably having a good chuckle at the HCM he's causing.
As an aside, thanks to this conversation, I'm happy to announce I've learned how to "unwatch" an LQT conversation.

Thanks P-Foster. I won't pretend I didn't overreact by locking the page, but I hope to be able to nip such episodes in the bud in the future - probably by staying away from that one person who can provoke such a strong emotional response in me. It is stupid of me to contact him even with the best of intentions. But I hope to say no more on the matter, and, like you said, let sleeping dogs lie.
That's not to say some moderator behavioral guidelines are uncalled for. Though, as I took a leading role in our last policymaking project, it might be good for someone else to take the lead this time around.
(I actually didn't know it was you till you admitted it). For what it's worth, Blue, just don't get into it in the first place. It will really make your day easier. :-) And if you do decide to do something like write letters, make sure you use a sock! :-)
I'm notoriously terrible at sockpuppetry, so I'll just not get involved unless absolutely required.
I always wanted to be a sock puppet, but i figured my spelling would give me away too easily. I'm better now that I have red wiggle lines when I type, but still...
By the way, that's a circumspect way of saying that I took too much abuse for being an authoritarian fascist tinpot dictator last time to be chomping at the bit for another big policy project.
In order to find your breaking point, you must first break. And now you're wiser for the experience.
Always look on the bright side of life.
Blueski!
Update to the main page. Also, Congress is reopening soon and the most important SOPA debates will begin.
Thanks for the heads up!
Congrats.
Four More Years! Four More Years!
Thanks PintOfStout/assorted usernames!
Ninja
Can I be one? I don't like it when terminals tell me I might be blocked...
Depends.... What would or could you do that would require "Bot" user powers? The Ninja usergroup is for people who do bot program tasks to be able to hide themselves from recent changes.

Death of a template
That template was my baby. I crafted it, nurtured it, whored it all across the wiki. If fell out of use after a while (but not before breaking into the top ten most used templates). Now, after a talk from Nx, I have agreed to let it go. *sniffle* It's time has come to die.
LONG LIVE TEMPLATE:U! LONG LIVE TEMPLATE:RW! LONG LIVE TEMPLATE:F! LONG LIVE TEMPLATE:T! Mourn for them, won't you? Mourn with me, for all I have left now are my precious {{noun}} and {{adjective}} templates...
Board of Trustees nomination
You have been nominated as a candidate in the 2012 election to the Board of Trustees. Accept or decline here.
Thank you!
Jesus Christ.
Is it Fucking Loser Day today or something?
Yeah, please don't do that. I know it's your instinct to get rid of it but I always prefer to engage or ignore the troll(s). Only delete stuff from my talk page (or any other talk page) if it's personal info, thanks.
Also, finding deleted threads on LQT is a huge pain in the arse.
THANK YOU

Political mailings are commonplace here in the EEUU. They are, as we say, wicked annoying.
Ugliness
How do you and Aly DISREGARD ssa Bry DISREGARD ant live with yourselves, being the most ugly women on the planet? I mean, obviously no one likes you, or else you wouldn't waste your time on this rat hole.
Well, that's what I intended to post when I made this account. I've seen pictures of you, and you're actually the exact opposite of ugly. But what a waste, that you would get caught up in this idiocy, you're probably actually a smart, friendly, beautiful young girl that's been misguided. Thanks for the welcome, but really, you need to find a different hobby.
Wow, that's really creepy and I'd kind of prefer just the ugliness screeds next time.
Shockingly bad typing, too. You would think if you're going to bother telling people they were ugly, you'd do it in such a way that they could read it. ;-)
Blue, you are how you see yourself, and only you can define yourself. I hope you do not let this petty child get on your nerves.
If you honestly can't see a difference...
...then you need to hone your critical thinking skills a bit.
If you can't see a joke... maybe I need to work on my joke-telling abilities.
Joke was seen. But on this site, it's easy to think someone would lump the two together. Haters gotta hate.
Indeed, we have become something of a cesspit of bad feelings recently.
Remember when we considered "censoring" the RW logo for SOPA?
Oh, stop overreacting. SOPA is a terrible law in every way, but whether it's passed or not won't effect RationalWiki at all.
You're missing the point of protest. And it may very well affect RW indirectly.
We've been accused of copyright infringement to censor a few of the side-by-side articles. If people then have legal backing to take that out against the site itself and the RWF's ability to fund it, it would be very bad indeed.
Remember that the entire point of copyright is to defend people against having their intellectual property used, abused and sold without their consent or compensation - but it's very often been used as a tool for censorship too. An alarming proportion of DMCA claims are used this way, and that just removes the content.
When was that?
The logo is at File:Rw logo.png, anyone can replace it.
And go to "Censor Your Website in Protest" at the bottom of the page.
Here's a question for you.
If Hitchens were editing the wiki, what headline do you imagine he might have written?
"I'm still alive, but inexplicably there are obituaries for me."
Smartass.
I think we're misunderstanding each other. I don't want to sugarcoat or euphemize the WIGO. But putting up "Hitchens is dead" and asking people to vote up or down is confusing at best.
It might be wise for us to not use vote tags on some WIGOs.
The "no vote tags on sad/difficult/tragic WIGOs" is something I'm in complete agreement with you about. Workarounds that involve weasel-y language, less so.
I have often wondered about that - when someone wigo's "Crazy fucker shoots loads of people somewhere" do you vote up or down?
Are you a moderator?
Is your term nearly over? Then contact Brxbrx nomination services to get back in the game!
