Appears someone changed my password

The last voting eligibility for the RW Foundation Board required only a few months and 75 edits or something, IIRC.

Being that you have openly confessed to voting with sock accounts, I wonder if you have ever had any passwords changed on any of them. I highly suspect this happened to me because on my talkpage there appeared a tricky link to logout, and when attempting to log in again, my password did not work.

I assume this is Lumenous as I have no fucking idea what you are talking about. I also think you have misremembered your password, as I suspect you have a secure one rather than one that is easy to remember, because you are a paranoid fucktard. As a paranoid fucktard you have obviously attributed to malice what is easier explain by your own incompetence. How were you so stupid as to fall for that? If you put your mouse over a link it tells you in the bar at the bottom of your browser what the link actually is. I don't give a shit other than having this opportunity to laugh at you. Get Nx to reset your password

I didn't attribute it to malice; perhaps this is excellent edumacation.

You do realize if one does not follow the "guideline" directing one to test their logout then it would take one much longer to figure out that their password won't work.

I guess if we are gonna use multiple accounts for voting they also need to have email addresses associated with them so we can get passwords reset? Or maybe Nx will try to identify us by our IP address instead? And what if ey is too busy, LANCB, or dies, and tmrwadmin is too busy, etc?

I wonder if Wikipedia uses the public voting or the black box approach used here at RatWiki. There is an alternative.

What if we go to all the effort of creating accounts that have just enough edits to be eligible, and then the Board decides to up the eligibility time by a month?

Capitalism has it's advantages, I suppose. If we don't like the way RW is run we could always go to other wikis. Would be nice to know if there is any reason to bother with multiple accounts. (And if it will ever be possible for noobs to export LQT or large numbers of other pages... [although half this question could be answered by MediaWiki experts plus testing].)

Please, for the love of all that holy, leave and find another wiki.

Second. Can we get a mob going here?
