Solutions and problems
Solutions and problems
I do not see them as current problems that need fixing so much as future sources of confusion, tension or inefficiency. There's certainly some hubris involved on my part, but not always, and even so I'm always sincere in my proposals. And I'm also very quick to change my mind when I realize I'm wrong.
This is just a circumspect way of saying, if you were talking about me in that userpage update, I hope you don't think less of me.
I happy to know that edit wasn't referring to me, because it was about "users I once respected." That's the great thing about being on the bottom, you can't fall any lower.
But seriously, I disagree with Ty on that. The site has grown, and is no longer just a few pals laughing at Conservapedia. We need rules, and means of enforcing those rules. HCM has been cyclical largely because people just waited for the issue to fizzle out, but since the underlying cause was unresolved, a few months later it would pop back up.
As for all the template destroying, I don't really get why Blue is doing it but then I don't get a lot of things. I just wish she'd focus on deleting things I don't use (OTOH, she was on my side for CPR. I just cannot get past CPR. That whole incident was infuriating. One day I'm going to swoop in and restore my article to its original glory).
Hmm... Maybe this is why I got the third wheel award. Oh well, I've already written all this, t'would be a shame not to post it :P
Then one day I'll swoop in and revert you. The is a collaborative wiki. Not BrxWiki.
What would BrxWiki look like? I assume it'd consist solely of Brxbrx and Maratrean masturbating each other.
Completely irrelevant, Brx. One can goof of all they want at RW. What they can't do is claim ownership of any article in the mainspace.
I'm fine with people editing my articles. What I'm not cool with is people ganging up on me because I'm unpopular and changing a perfectly fine article in its entirety just to sate some user's ego. I put a lot of effort into CPR. I did a lot of research. And what do I get? A fucking {{mission}} tag. I expected people to expand the article, add proper templates and categories, insert relevant internal links, and add more sections.
I've really thought of making my own wiki, but I don't have the money to avoid adverts and I know that most of the content would be ported from RW and the only users would be me, Maratrean, and Ace- who would only be there to cause trouble. RationalWiki is the best wiki for me.
I try to resist getting involved with this petty drama, but good god, you are such an attention whore. CPR is still on the wiki, albeit as a subsection of another article because it was just a bunch of barely connected factoids to begin with. Schedule an appointment with the WAHmbulance to have that stick removed from your rectum posthaste.
And open it as soon as he's done.
I've just woken up to 10 comments on this threat that don't really add anything. Yeah, I can see why some people are frustrated.
Great idea folks! Have a petty little fight over nothing on a user's talk page that just said he had enough of these petty little fights. That's really garanteed not to annoy him even more.
