RationalWiki talk:Requests for Sysop
HumanShall we archive TK's poll since he doesn't want it? Tmtoulouse 13:52, 24 May 2007 (CDT)
- I think we should let it roll till it stops by itself. --Bob_M (talk) 15:57, 24 May 2007 (CDT)
- I think, if he wants to withdraw his request to be one (for now), yes, archive immediately. If he still wants to be one, well, this seems to be how the mob has decided to discuss that sort of request. Oh, and if "someone" decides to make him one, for some reason of humor or masochism, then it should be archived, also. humanbe in 16:09, 24 May 2007 (CDT)
I asked for what Colin promised all members of 1.0. Contrary to Trent's misleading posts, there were no conditions, except maybe ones in his head. Under that promise, there was no vote or other conditions. I didn't want a poll, knew what would happen with one. I have posted I thought Flippin was only doing what he thought "right", and no good intention ever goes unpunished, right? Trent you are filled with hate and bias, and your heart is cold, no soup for you! Nothing that happened here was my "fault" except my breathing. You never once tried to stop the gang rape, and when you did show up, to keep your popularity, you took the safe road and bitched me out. Cool for you. You should take down what Colin put on the main page. You guys won't support that. There is even a fucking page here comparing CP Sysops and me to Nazi's! If any of you are so moronic as to not realize how morally and intellectually wrong it is to equate people you disagree with as mass murders, I pity you. My family was Catholic from Austria. Many were gassed by the Nazi's. Thanks to you who tried. Maybe in a month or two, the haters will have found newer, greener pastures. If the rules permit, please lock my talk until I think it safe to come back. Otherwise, leave it open for the haters. --TK /MyTalk 22:50, 24 May 2007 (CDT)
- I was just at that page, the actions at CP were compared to fascism. You conflate that with the Holocaust, don't link, and as a result of that, you lie. Don't make me ban you for another minute, that would be ugly. Yes! That's a threat. You can now feel free to say on other pages that sysops are threatening you for speaking your mind. humanbe in 23:27, 24 May 2007 (CDT)
- TK, although I do welcome you here, I do think you came here with a mindset as strongly as the one you accuse us of. Case in point, you were very quick to jump down HeartOfGold's throat... without cause. Also, you misconstrue Trent's promise: he made that promise to a select group of users, specifically the "Cabal" that opposed CP. Categorically, you were not one of them. Except in name only. But unlike a lot on CP, we are not textualists here, but look to the spirit of the law. Sorry dude :-( but your point was not proven... -AmesG 22:57, 24 May 2007 (CDT)
- Up to you, Ames. I am looking at it now. It has no contextual subtleties to it. It doesn't say "active members of the cabal, or this wiki" or anything else. It merely says all members here now, will be sysop'd if they request it. While I understand, and have already admitted I was joshing about it with Colin, the truth is, there were no posted "conditions" whatsoever. If there were, they were in your head, or Trent's. I never jumped down HOG's throat, either. He was very disingenuous in IM's and his emails to other sysops at CP. Wanna see them? You will live and learn with him here. We all have to do that everywhere in life. This vote, in my mind was a separate deal completely. And even in it, I am being held responsible for things I shouldn't be under the clean salte deal, now effectively discarded. --TK /MyTalk 23:03, 24 May 2007 (CDT)
- P.S.: Another thing. For you to post here, after what I said on my talk page to you, and cast doubt upon why I came here is callous. I hope you will reflect on your words, and change your mind.
- Dude, could you come down off that cross? We need the wood. If you're that desperate to be here, why not just edit some articles without worrying about having REAL ULTIMATE MODPOWER? If works for me. And this way, if/when the Evil Liberal Cabal censors you, you get DOUBLE Persecution Points!--Gulik 23:22, 24 May 2007 (CDT)
[edit] Archiving
We definitely have some to do. HG, for instance, and TK. How best to do it? One per user nomination, under the pagespace? humanbe in 17:40, 5 July 2007 (CDT)
