Irish?

Noticed you made the Republic of Ireland article? You irish as well? MarcusCicero 17:44, 24 March 2008 (EDT)

Yes I'm a culchie bogger (that would be yes)Angband 17:48, 24 March 2008 (EDT)

I'm a Nordie culchie bogger (From Monaghan, so from the Republic) Whereabouts the 'mighty bog' are you from? MarcusCicero 17:49, 24 March 2008 (EDT)

From the KingdomAngband 17:51, 24 March 2008 (EDT)

Good butter down there! MarcusCicero 17:56, 24 March 2008 (EDT)

I wouldn't know about butter, I'm a townie. Which makes me more "deprived inner city chav" (just messing) than "farmer" as far as the crowd down in the sunny south-west are concerned. Angband 18:08, 24 March 2008 (EDT)

Yes, well, play with you knives safely! MarcusCicero 18:09, 24 March 2008 (EDT)

No I'm not that bad. My only anti-social behaviour was 10-15 vandal accounts on CP. It's all I can do stop myself mugging someone ;). Angband 18:16, 24 March 2008 (EDT)

Jaysus bollocks, anuther wan. I'm a shitty shlicker, but I grew up in de bogs in County Luimneach. I notice that we Irish seem to particularly favour socking like mad feckers over there, it must be a national habit. Top marks for Daz whiteness all round! DogP 15:25, 18 April 2008 (EDT)

I'd say its 'cause socking is de ne*t best ting to having a "nice friendly chat" in real life wit dose rehabs. Angband 15:53, 18 April 2008 (EDT)

Exactly. Oh dear, Ed banned you. Despite all the honest labour you were involving yourself in! I would advise starting another sock and having a fight with yourself, then using that leverage to become Ed's friend - that's always entertaining for a bit. DogP 14:01, 19 April 2008 (EDT)

That sounds like a good idea, but I want to carry out a little experiment >).Angband 14:43, 20 April 2008 (EDT)

Health care

I'm glad you wish we had it, too. Nice userbox. Don't worry, by 2200 we will join the 20th century! human 21:09, 10 May 2008 (EDT)

Thanks, though privitisation (read:americanisation) of health services is starting to gain some currency in Ireland and the UK. Ah well I might have to brush up on my poor-trampling skills if I am to get any medecine from now on...(sigh) Angband 10:44, 11 May 2008 (EDT)

Well, it's true that the pendulum always swings, but surely the basic core of the National Health can never be destroyed? I don't know the "news" in detail, though. human 15:06, 11 May 2008 (EDT)

In hindsight you are probably right. The politcal spectrum does move with simple harmonic motion (ignore that allusion to applied math if you couldn't understand it and let me know). If the Health Minister continues her policy then she will be replaced with a more socialist minister, as she is not popular with doctors or the public. Angband 15:31, 11 May 2008 (EDT)

I got the math ref, thanks :) I brought up the pendulum pretty much meaning that, not just as a lay analogy. Although, hopefully it's more like y = (sin x) + 0.1 x - the offset in my ideal being towards a better balance of good socialism with rapacious capitalism ;) human 17:41, 12 May 2008 (EDT)

Amen to that brother! Angband 15:40, 13 May 2008 (EDT)

I could indeed do that.

We've criticised CP for doing it, but hey, RWW are small fry. On your command. --מְתֻרְגְּמָן ^{שְׁלֹום}

Thanks, though we're only hiding a minor detail, as opposed to crushing dissent, see for yourself. I will put a notice up anyway, thanks again. Angband 16:54, 11 May 2008 (EDT)

P.S to Karajou: by hiding I meant anonymity as opposed to "disappearing" editors. Angband 16:56, 11 May 2008 (EDT)

Did someone say the magic initials ("RWW") for summoning me? --Hans Johnson as in "keep ya hans off my" ^{(cover your eyes!)} 12:13, 12 May 2008 (EDT)

There, I think that that's done it. Tell me if there's anything else you want doing. And Hans, here's your daily dose of RW sysop rule paranoia. --מְתֻרְגְּמָן ^{שְׁלֹום}

Restore brings back the history. The CP burn and salt method is to delete, then recreate from the "page does not exist" screen, and paste in whatever was on the page before. Then it's a new page with no history. Are we trying to be bad, bad people here? Hehe. human 14:36, 12 May 2008 (EDT)

That's precisely what happened. NightFlare^{Speak, mortal} 14:38, 12 May 2008 (EDT)

I think I caught up after reading a few more things. Back to my Ides homework... human 14:45, 12 May 2008 (EDT)

(undent) On the point of the morality of this endeavour, human, since when was RW anything but a den of iniquity..? :) But on more serious note I do think it would be good idea to at least shallow-burn anything that you wouldn't want madmen baying for your blood to see. I know "fighting" (beating the crap) out of MP is easy now, but what will happen when the more agressive "Pro-Europeans" start to learn what is going on here, unlike CP most people hit you back when you hit them. I think this fairly likely occurance (there are already trolls on WIGO:FR), and the potential problem of skinheads trying to wreck the place should be prepared for in advance.

Likewise now is the time to start planting socks is now. I also suggest somewhere to discuss this, though I have no intention of taking (direct) part. Thus endeth my rant. Angband 16:17, 12 May 2008 (EDT)

We've already been there and done that, Angband. All they did was come and make a few dumb edits over and over again. If they show up at my house they'll have more problems than a silly user log on their wiki, now, won't they? (I might touch them and give them cooties!!!) human 16:24, 12 May 2008 (EDT)

In line with humans empirical evidence I agree that this is a negligable risk now. My model of MP has been updated to bring it in line with this news. By the way you can use cyrillic charachters in usernames there , , I think.. in case you didn't know and some of their templates aren't even protected. Angband 16:34, 12 May 2008 (EDT)

While they don't seem to be the type that would hunt you down in real life, they do seem to have a good relationship with the guys at StormFront, which (from what I've heard anyway) are the real neo-nazi deal.

So, want your talk page burned? NightFlare^{Speak, mortal} 06:20, 13 May 2008 (EDT)

You can always use a sock here too, by the way. Jigsaw 08:08, 13 May 2008 (EDT)

Thats a better Idea than burning Jigsaw, yes you are right. Sorry for being a bit of a paranoid fool. Anyway I'm after having an adolescent mood swing to (slightly) gung-ho mode- has anyone triee making a doppellganger of Natall175, unlike CP you aren't forced use alphanumeic charachtertrers. --Angband 11:28, 13 May 2008 (EDT)
