Hey, thanks for the tip and all (though I'll move it to the footnotes; I am keeping it though) but you're not supposed to be messing around with articles in Essay space. Next time, use the talk page. EVDebs (talk) 22:54, 9 November 2012 (UTC)

Block evasion
Sadly, save in one case, not a rule. Humorless fascist sociopath 15:26, 7 December 2012 (UTC)


 * Oh. Sorry. Corrected. Hipocrite (talk) 15:26, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
 * No worries. Humorless fascist sociopath 15:27, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Nor can you block them for impersonation. In fact, unless they're vandalizing or there's a community vote, you really can't ban them at all. Humorless fascist sociopath 16:54, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
 * This is unfunny vandalism. Hipocrite (talk) 16:56, 7 December 2012 (UTC)

Blocking ips like you just did.
Does nothing. He's jumping from one TOR node to another, or something similar. Theory of Practice "...and we do love you madly." 21:45, 5 February 2013 (UTC)


 * Not tor, he's just using the lists at, so when it's gone, he'll be out. If it keeps up, I'll just block them all for a week when I get home, if that's kosher. Hipocrite (talk) 21:48, 5 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Good thing there's only one proxy service on the internet. Theory of Practice "...and we do love you madly." 21:51, 5 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Not a week. We've never had a week-long IP attack, although the goatse mess a year or two ago felt like it. Sophie  Wilder  21:52, 5 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Good times. I won't make my "why anonymous editing is a pain in the ass" argument again. Theory of Practice "...and we do love you madly." 21:53, 5 February 2013 (UTC)
 * If worst comes to worst I have a tac-nuke under by bed I can lob at him. Collateral may be an issue. Ty JFBANBSRADA 21:54, 5 February 2013 (UTC)

If he's using that list, he has about 5,000 addresses in his arsenal. Blocking them all would be pointless for a human and tedious even for a bot. What I could do is have my bot automatically revert and block any IP edits from that list, or less optimally, set up an edit filter to disallow editing from any of those IPs (or, as ToP alludes to, disable all IP editing). 22:10, 5 February 2013 (UTC)
 * We could ask David to blacklist them server-side. Ty JFBANBSRADA 22:24, 5 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Okay, modified the filter so hopefully everybody wins, at least for the time being. I suppose a long-term solution is to improve our captcha system. 22:26, 5 February 2013 (UTC)

Continue please with the MSG!
No reply to my last comment on my Talk page? I'm interested in your response. You have to admit there is enough anecdotal evidence that perhaps a small number of people suffer from discomfort with the damn stuff. And please note that I'm not remotely claiming it's harmful to health - simply that it causes short-term discomfort, nothing else. I have myself never had it cause a headache or dry mouth as many claim - my only symptoms are always the same, heart palpitations and sleeplessness. Do you accept that might be going on for a small number of people? DogP (talk) 01:17, 6 February 2013 (UTC)

Yeah, but undecided people will be reading it. I guess I'll continue debating until the discussion gets moved to the forum like at Talk:Cancer.--Krej talk 20:41, 7 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Oh, it has. Nvm.--Krej talk 20:42, 7 February 2013 (UTC)

Hey boss
Not questioning your qualifications to deal with the article on the 2008 financial crisis, just curious, what are your qualifications to deal with the article on the 2008 financial crisis?--Token Conservative (talk) 21:05, 13 February 2013 (UTC)


 * I work as an analyst on a large investment bank's structured credit trading desk. I am responsible for the analysis of numerous structured products, including monolines and various HY/HG CDX indices and tranches. I was moved there from the distressed corporate trading desk after 2007 to help clean up messes. I'm the most qualified guy in about 99.999% of rooms. Hipocrite (talk) 22:54, 13 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Gotcha. I only asked because I was going to say I might be able to help, but I think you got it covered.--Token Conservative (talk) 22:03, 14 February 2013 (UTC)
 * I appreciate all help, especially because I'll be forced to dodge some topics! Wasn't sure if I was answering "why?" or "why?" because they sound very similar on the internet. I answered the first variety, of course.
 * If you want some input, I'm around.--Token Conservative (talk) 22:05, 15 February 2013 (UTC)

Fuck me,
you were a proper knobhead on that political correctness forum page discussion, you tit. User:DeltaStarUser_talk:DeltaStar 09:09, 28 February 2013 (UTC)

You show what's wrong with any of the edits
The stuff on Churchill is uncited, I just gotta dig out of one of his books. The rest is all properly cited, and even in most cases quoted verbatim in Wikipedia. nobsYe shall all perish in flames - Kim Jong-un 05:20, 3 April 2013 (UTC)


 * Provide citations for all of your supposed facts, since they are actually little more than cherry picked garbage. You have a problem with the truth. Hipocrite (talk) 05:25, 3 April 2013 (UTC)
 * Then I'll reinsert the cited material now. And eat my shorts on your attitude, friend. nobsYe shall all perish in flames - Kim Jong-un 05:49, 3 April 2013 (UTC)
 * "eat my shorts"? Really, Smith? Acei9 06:47, 3 April 2013 (UTC)
 * Even Bart hasn't said that in over a decade. For shame.  DamoHi 09:04, 3 April 2013 (UTC)

yeah. Did he doubt/Or did he try? 14:14, 6 April 2013 (UTC)


 * I think it will go away on it's own - like the common cold. But yeah, if it recurs, I'll treat it. Hipocrite (talk) 14:17, 8 April 2013 (UTC)
 * But...the flaking, and the itching. It buuuurns. Did he doubt/Or did he try? 14:37, 8 April 2013 (UTC)
