Wow
What a cursed userbox section. — Oxyaena Harass  18:06, 18 July 2020 (UTC)


 * Ok commie Iwillprobablygetbanned (talk to me!) 20:06, 20 July 2020 (UTC)


 * What’s cursed about it? None of those userboxes are even halfway controversial. I actually have most of them on my page too. 19:59, 20 July 2020 (UTC)
 * I think that you're pretty safe ignoring it - it's just Oxy being Oxy. Scream!! (talk) 20:07, 20 July 2020 (UTC)
 * It's because this user isn't supporting Communism, like Oxy does. Gunther1987 (talk) 20:15, 20 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Oh no, the dreaded C word! — Oxyaena Harass  11:55, 21 July 2020 (UTC)
 * I'm going to guess it's the formatting that's complete whack. 15:39, 21 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Every single time I see a userbox farm it reminds me of MySpace and Geocities. —cosmikdebris talk stalk 16:11, 21 July 2020 (UTC)

Userpage categories
Remove the categories that suggest you are a userbox.--Delibirda (talk) 11:05, 31 August 2020 (UTC)
 * How? Iwillprobablygetbanned (Talk to me!) 17:52, 31 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Edit the page and remove the two categories. 17:53, 31 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Can‘t someone else do this? It didn‘t work. (My page isn‘t locked.) Iwillprobablygetbanned (Talk to me!) 17:56, 31 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Just edit your user page. Highlight the text of the categories and backspace to get rid of them. 18:00, 31 August 2020 (UTC)
 * To be honest I just looked and I couldn't see an option to remove it on the userpage. I think the category is on the userbox itself, and appears here when the userbox is put on the page. --RWRW (talk) 18:53, 31 August 2020 (UTC)

You didn't have to upload that picture
We've got it here already. Spud (talk) 13:40, 16 November 2020 (UTC)

Grammatical error
You made a grammatical error in your German userbox. Feel free to remove this section once you have fixed it. 05:42, 28 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Where? Iwillprobablygetbanned (Reply) 08:16, 28 November 2020 (UTC)
 * He's probably refering to "This user speaks fluently German". It should be either "fluent German" or "German fluently" to be grammatically correct. 09:34, 28 November 2020 (UTC)

Sysop
— ElectrosPardon? 16:31, 5 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Good work, but your name has been a disappointment since there has been no reason — as yet — to ban you. Bongolian (talk) 18:35, 5 December 2020 (UTC)
 * I want to change my name, but how is this possible? Iwillprobablygetbanned (Reply) 18:25, 12 December 2020 (UTC)
 * The normal procedure is to request the change here: RationalWiki:Requests to change username, specifying your desired new name, and optionally the reason for the change. Bongolian (talk) 18:30, 12 December 2020 (UTC)

User page protection
I noticed you protected your user page to administrator level, which is of course fine. I'm a bit baffled about the "excessive vandalism" reason though, since as far as I can see from the page history, only you have ever edited it. 15:22, 10 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Sorry, it wasn‘t on purpose (exzessive vandalism) Iwillprobablygetbanned (Reply) 18:13, 10 December 2020 (UTC)

Do you live under a bridge and collect money from people who wish to cross said bridge?

 * You mean like the other type of "troll"? -- Goatspeed. 20:04, 10 December 2020 (UTC)
 * wdym? I‘m just curious. Iwillprobablygetbanned (Reply) 20:14, 10 December 2020 (UTC)
 * I mean what CircularReasoning suggests. Your random questions about peoples nationalities. You asking whether Trent is active. You could have checked his contributions to find out that he has a grand amount of 12 edits this year. Which is 3 more than he had last year, so I guess it's relatively active of him. Even if basically all of it relates to his role as operations manager.
 * You are behaving very strangely, unless the point of that strange behavior is to annoy us. In which case, congratulations! Mission accomplished. 20:29, 10 December 2020 (UTC)
 * What strange behaviour? (Except from the nationalities part) Iwillprobablygetbanned (Reply) 07:09, 11 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Sorry I got a bit antsy last night, too much whisky and beer. Anyway, mostly it was just about the randomness of your talk page questions in general. 07:19, 11 December 2020 (UTC)

Protecting talk pages and deleting comments
Listen, talk pages are supposed to be community property. You're allowed to delete or collapse "vile comments" or trolling. If there's excessive problem with your talk page being trolled, you can protect it temporarily (π days or at most π weeks), but don't stop BoN's or new users permanently from commenting here. Also, I don't think those comments you deleted were vile enough to warrant that. Collapse maybe, but you're getting a bit too excessive in the use of your goat given mop. I'll let you undo the damage yourself, but I recommend you do so and consider your acts a bit more carefully in future. 18:33, 13 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Ok, aber solltest du nicht Finnisch reden? Kevlarstar and his dog (Woof!) 18:34, 13 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Gut, die Diskussionsseite ist für alle offen und der User ist nicht meht geblockt. Kevlarstar and his dog (Woof!) 18:38, 13 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Hyvä. 18:40, 13 December 2020 (UTC)
 * (EC) Ajattelin antaa sinulle mahdollisuuden muuttaa mielesi saksanpuhumisen suhteen. Mutta jos aiot pitää kiinni aiemmasta uhkauksestasi puhua vain saksaa minulle, niin käyhän tämä kahdenkeskisissä keskusteluissa. 18:39, 13 December 2020 (UTC)

Unblocking GR~2020
He was coop-banned. I've reverted it. Don't unblock him again without trying to make an appeal. 13:52, 21 December 2020 (UTC)

ThisSiteRuxExDee/ThisSiteRuxExDee2
If you had seen that editor's contribs and their talkpages, you would've seen that this user was only a drive-by prudish, holier-than-thou concern troll who was obsessed with lecturing us on how evil and perverted we are for not agreeing 100% with his well-meaning but low-quality and excessively remove-happy edits on some of our less-than-well-written crime related articles. I wanted to let you know that I have just promoted TSRXD2 to not-autpatrolled so if he ever returns to shit on our site, his easily-revertible edits will be unpatrolled and thus easier to notice. -- Goatspeed. 22:42, 25 December 2020 (UTC)

Sir!!!
How dare you? how VERY dare you? HOW the EFF dare you ... steal my block reason; to whit: "being a twat"?

I have little choice but to challenge you to a duel at dawn on the morrow. The choice of weapons is obviously yours but I would recommend flounders (or haddock should none be available) at thirty paces. Scream!! (talk) 20:57, 31 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Yes, I'm bored. Scream!! (talk) 20:59, 31 December 2020 (UTC)
 * No, I only changed the block from infinite to 3 days, because I thought infinite is too excessive. Kevlarstar and his dog (Woof!) 22:20, 31 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Kevlarstar, before you shorten infinite bans of clearly renamed users, maybe check the | User rename log. You would have found that he was originally called "L h8 Ñiggers", so clearly not a desirable editor. Protip: Anyone with a poot in their username, tends to be renamed. 23:38, 31 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Also, I'm pretty sure he's another stinky sock of banned User:Mikemikev or Michael Coombs. 23:41, 31 December 2020 (UTC)

For trying to edit MM's userpage
While well-meaning, we don't edit the pages of other users- unless they're foul or spammy ones, for which we have a nuke-and-block-on-sight policy. -- Goatspeed. 08:18, 8 January 2021 (UTC)

Template:User Communist
Any reason you're reverting to the revision that misuses Cyrillic? I find it a problem to misuse Cyrillic. 00:05, 17 January 2021 (UTC)


 * I think he's doing it as a throwback to when, back when we had a lot of Russian users who created accounts whose usernames were written in Cyrillic script even here on the English project, and even some of the non-Russian/other former Soviet country-nationality ones would misuse Cyrillic letters that resemble Latin ones in their names as a running gag. -- Goatspeed. 02:21, 17 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Most people don‘t know Cyrillic. The other one is more obvious. Kevlarstar and his dog (Woof!) 07:30, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
 * I don't think it's a "throwback", I think it's a misunderstanding of how Cyrillic is used and pronounced. It might be "more" obvious, but there's a lot of times people misuse the Cyrillic thinking it's the actual thing and to mimic Russian propaganda. Perhaps it's fine for Russian users to intentionally misuse, but I find it a problem to abuse the Cyrillic to do this especially when the practice is widespread and criticized, and some may find it cliche, stereotyped, cultural appropriation, promoting ignorance, disrespectful to the language etc. See here, here, and here's a subreddit. 21:46, 18 January 2021 (UTC)

You're not being very subtle you know.
This chain of events with the timestamps and all really makes my Spider-sense tingle. Anything you want to confess maybe? 20:39, 27 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Good to see there are still investigative journalists out there doing the real work. ikanreed 🐐Bleat at me 20:51, 27 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Well I've expressed here why I have limited trust for Kevlarstars edits so I play special attention to whenever I see him doing something (and I was bored at work so I had plenty of time). Also, you considered that Lenny Face used in Havals wandalism to be unacceptable as a username in a disruptive way only couple of days ago. And that mess involved some equally lightning speed reactions to wandalism by another very fresh user.


 * I mean I know I'm a paranoid fucker, but if all of these are bunch of coincidences, then my mind is certainly blown. 22:25, 27 January 2021 (UTC)
 * 'Autoblock disabled' yeah sure buddy. Sievert 81 (talk) 22:54, 27 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Ok, it was stupid from me for uploading this pic, ik. But I'm NOT lenny face/Haval. Kevlarstar and his dog (Woof!) 07:06, 28 January 2021 (UTC)

Stop calling AfD votes “ineligible”
Anyone can vote in AfDs and similar, the rule you’re misremembering only applies to certain more important things. Unless you have notifications for edit reversions turned off, you would’ve seen me say this before. Christopher (talk) 08:57, 16 February 2021 (UTC)

“Sysop to sysop and autopatrolled”
You’re not hurting anyone by doing it, but you’re not benefiting anyone either. If you look at Special:UserGroupRights, you’ll see that being a sysop grants you all the rights being autopatrolled does. It’s not worth giving people a notification over, especially with people who haven’t edited in a while. Christopher (talk) 14:55, 16 February 2021 (UTC)

Your sysop rights
Maybe take a break from using them for a while. Please-Hastur! (talk) 07:41, 25 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Why? Kevlarstar and his dog (Woof!) 07:58, 25 February 2021 (UTC)

For giving TAOB the autopatrolled right, although temporarily.
Kevlarstar and his dog (Woof!) 11:27, 25 February 2021 (UTC)

I put it up
RW spotify playlist.
 * wdym? Kevlarstar and his dog (Woof!) 06:49, 26 February 2021 (UTC)


 * I think he means this one that made with help from the mob last month. (Pinging cuz he might be interested in this thread.) But yeah, what do you mean you "put it up"? Where? -- Goatspeed.  06:57, 26 February 2021 (UTC)
 * I mean I put Ek Din on the RW Spotify playlist. And then I kinda put up everything I could think of that was direct influence to the lyrics from The Game's verse, including Bone Crusher, Trick Daddy, Clipse, Pharell, and a lot of the artists in that circle.  https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0MLuyY90CakEH4eoMQMRhl?si=P3-yVdPVRm6K2bIz1SfI0g would be the link to the playlist, I think. Gol Sarnitt (talk) 08:53, 27 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Well, I only have it on my user page mainly because of the video, not of the music. Kevlarstar and his dog (Woof!) 12:39, 27 February 2021 (UTC)

Don’t start messing with templates
You broke collapse, which is used on over 700 pages. You had to ask how to create a new page the other week, if you think something on a high-use template that’s been around for years is “unnecessary” you’re probably wrong. Christopher (talk) 10:20, 3 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Also editing high use templates puts the server under stress, don’t do it unless you actually need to. Removing something that’s “unnecessary” is itself unnecessary. Christopher (talk) 10:20, 3 March 2021 (UTC)
 * I only wanted to remove the "extended content", which is written on collapses, if you don't edit them. Kevlarstar and his dog (Woof!) 10:21, 3 March 2021 (UTC)
 * You ended up doing more than just that, you removed any text that goes at the top of the box, not just the default “extended content”, because you don’t understand how templates work. Even if you did only what you set out to do, what would be the point? Don’t remove things just because they’re “unnecessary”, remove them because it’s necessary to remove them (ie they’re in some way harmful). Don’t do things for the sake of doing them, and don’t mess with wikitext you don’t understand. Christopher (talk) 10:29, 3 March 2021 (UTC)

Calm down with the AfD attempts.
Seriously, none of your overall attempts to AfD articles so far have succeeded. We don't nuke pages for "irrelevancy" or "barely used templates" or that attempt to remove authoritarian moonbattery. AfDs are for pages that aren't missional or are about complete nobodies who said a bad thing once and that's why we have a page on them (YouTubers land in that category), which we cleanup because we're not a "greatest hits of the hot takes from this person" site. Please just read the AfD page itself, it actively discourages AfDing for things like low quality. 11:23, 5 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Category:Singaporean politics did. Kevlarstar and his dog (Woof!) 11:26, 5 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Because it appeared on a single page alone. That's different. Most of them haven't succeeded, because you keep submitting stuff to AfD that doesn't meet the requirements for AfDing. 11:30, 5 March 2021 (UTC)
 * RaHoWa is irrelevant. I can understand that ethnic cleansing has a article because its creators and the game itself are quite well-known, but the creator of RaHoWa is a nobody. Kevlarstar and his dog (Woof!) 11:32, 5 March 2021 (UTC)
 * My understanding actually is that RaHoWa is rather infamous in RPG circles for its sheer technical awfulness (let alone the repugnant theme). It's sort of like how Skrewdriver is irrelevant in the world of music, except as a punchline in the general punk rock community for "Nazis who make really shitty punk music". PanGalacticGargleBlaster (talk) 13:56, 5 March 2021 (UTC)

WIGO
The edit notice at the top of every WIGO explains that you can’t just remove WIGOs, you need to comment them out. There’s also no policy against duplicate WIGOs on different pages. Christopher (talk) 12:33, 9 March 2021 (UTC)
 * There is a policy against duplicates. Kevs  Ping!  13:38, 9 March 2021 (UTC)
 * What policy are you referring to? I’m pretty sure it doesn’t apply across different WIGOs. Even if I’m wrong, remember to comment out WIGOs instead of just removing them. Christopher (talk) 13:43, 9 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Here. Avoid repeats. Kevs  Ping!  16:25, 9 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Christopher is right, if it is going to be removed you need to comment it out with " " otherwise the next WIGO entry will have the exact same number and the up/down votes will carry over. --RWRW (talk) 14:53, 9 March 2021 (UTC)
 * No need to screenshot and upload a file, just include a link. I hope that bit about commenting out instead of removing actually went in this time, it’s important. I’ve removed the story from WIGO:elections as it’s not actually about an election, no more repeats (I’m still not convinced there was ever an issue with repeats at all, but that doesn’t matter until it comes up again). Christopher (talk) 14:59, 9 March 2021 (UTC)

Burqa ban
Why did you vote for it, and not say voting for the banning of the veils nuns wear? — Oxyaena Harass  16:37, 9 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Burqa covers the whole face, while hijabs/nun wear cover only their heads. Kevs  Ping!  16:50, 9 March 2021 (UTC)

DFTT
08:01, 28 February 2021 Kevlarstar (talk | contribs) changed block settings for Mytechtoday (talk | contribs) with an expiration time of 314159 seconds (about 3.6 days) (account creation disabled, cannot edit own talk page) (Suspected sock. Prove us wrong)

"Malicious editing occurs when somebody wants to harm RationalWiki. Because it does not contribute to constructive dialogue, and merely causes disorder, malicious editing is a blockable offense. " is the only reason for banning someone. Explain how I was not engaging in constructive dialogue. You stated reason of "Suspected sock" is not valid. Who are you that I should have to prove myself to you? That's incredibly arrogant.


 * Just giving you advice, your hyperaggresive attitude is not helping your case. Also, are you or are you not this person? Plutocow (talk) 02:17, 21 March 2021 (UTC)

Read this first before your try to revert my edit again
RationalWiki talk:All things in moderation. Bongolian (talk) 18:08, 25 March 2021 (UTC)
 * But you (or ) deleted nearly half of his talkpage, not only these two comments. Kevs  Ping!  18:11, 25 March 2021 (UTC)
 * If you add a ping in a later edit it doesn’t work, you have to add it in the same edit you add a signature.
 * All of the removed content was drama that stemmed from those two comments, and contained a lot of similar statements. Christopher (talk) 18:23, 25 March 2021 (UTC)

You signature
I briefly did the same thing years back, people get annoyed with it pretty quickly. Christopher (talk) 14:18, 4 June 2021 (UTC)
 * Most users have their own signatures anyway. User:Kevlarstar (talk) 14:22, 4 June 2021 (UTC)
 * This one'll get irritating quick. I promise. 07:19, 5 June 2021 (UTC)

You have real poor judgement
Why did you make UShistoryanalyzer sysop? 14:52, 9 June 2021 (UTC)
 * And what is with your occasional bad decisions? I also saw you quietly remove protection from SusanG's too that was supposed to prevent IPs from vandalizing a dead person's page, and then a person vandalized it. 14:55, 9 June 2021 (UTC)
 * Also your sig is still so annoying and I'm going to get a mod to change it if you don't. 14:57, 9 June 2021 (UTC)
 * I already told him I will remove his sysop rights if he would abuse it and I permabanned the User who vandalized her page.User:Kevlarstar (talk) 15:03, 9 June 2021 (UTC)

What the bloody hell do you think you're playing at?
First you make a troll and the friend and defender of other trolls a fucking sysop, then you hive autopatrolled status to a Biblical literalist and Young Earth Creationist, someone who tries to get his worldview into mainspace articles and someone who's made a map showing how everyone in the world is descended from fucking Noah. Are you trying to cause trouble? Spud (talk) 03:35, 19 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Spud, calm down. UShistoryanalyzer (talk) 04:01, 19 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Agreed, like I already mentioned, if he would be a troll, he would have abused his sysop rights. 05:37, 19 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Months ago, you also quietly removed protection from a dead user's talk page, only for a edgy vandal months later to piss on. And then you decided to early archive a page soon after I thrown a lot of questions at you, which makes you come off as evasive and not taking responsibility. Is there something you don't understand? Genuine question. 05:55, 19 July 2021 (UTC)
 * I didn't know why there was indefinite protection. (I know some users protect their talk page temporary to prevent trolls from littering their talk page) 05:58, 19 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Sure, but you can easily tell why it was protected. The content immediately shows it's a talk page of a user that's no longer with us, and I think talk pate protection reasons reinforce that. I don't know how you missed those when unprotecting the page, but how did you figure out it was protected? 06:01, 19 July 2021 (UTC)

Just in general
I don't think a sysoprevoke will pass, nor do I really think you need a sysoprevoke. But for in the future, could you please check beforehand on ATIM/Coop/user talkpage/the logs why someone might have been blocked? This isn't the first time you overturned a moderator, and while I don't think it's that bad, please do keep in mind that generally you shouldn't overturn actions of moderators. -- Techpriest (talk) 15:33, 9 October 2021 (UTC)
