Talk:WIGOCP captures

I very much appreciate your willingness to wade through the river of vomit that is Conservapedia to dig out the best posts for people to laugh or gape at. However, I notice that many of your diff links, instead of linking to "conservapedia.com/index.php…", link to "conservapedia.com./index.php…", with an extra period between the "com" and "/". This doesn't cause any problems in-browser (at least for me), but it seems to prevent CaptureBot from taking and uploading a screenshot. It's usually easy to fix later or to just follow the link, but I wanted to give you a heads-up on the off-chance you catch Ken doing something weird that he then deletes or oversights after five minutes, so it isn't lost to the sands of time. «-Bfa-» 16:58, 9 July 2011 (UTC)

Hi there. Generally speaking, the first letter of the title of a new section is capitalized, as are proper names. Not like this. We're trying to at least look smart here. Thanks. P-Foster_{Can't we talk about this, baby?} 01:22, 13 July 2011 (UTC)

Hi

Are your userboxes all true? You've got an interesting set of beliefs there. Senator Harrison (talk) 10:27, 23 August 2011 (UTC)

More or less. the Capitalism-communism one is just there because i wanted more userboxes--Mikalos209 (talk) 12:27, 23 August 2011 (UTC)

So you are a YEC, or is that a more userboxes one? Тy^talk 13:54, 23 August 2011 (UTC)

Yes to the former, no to the latter--Mikalos209 (talk) 21:47, 23 August 2011 (UTC)

Block

Unless you're really serious about a block, don't block for more than a few seconds. Generally, the block log is used as a sort of instant-message communication, broadcast over Recent Changes, but if you make the duration 5 minutes then it is actually going to probably inconvenience someone when they try to save the edit they're working on. If you do want to be serious, then the first venue is someone's talk page. Don't block first - talk first. Just the general scheme of things, I think.--^talk 00:54, 28 August 2011 (UTC)

Actually, it just gave me more time to search for pr0n for my next post, but the general point is correct. –SuspectedReplicant retire me 00:55, 28 August 2011 (UTC)

Your general abuse, trolling, and conflicts which cannot be solved through normal talk page discussion has been reported to RationalWiki:Chicken_coop#Mikalos. May God have mercy on your soul. nobs^{I am a fugitive from an ideological fever swamp} 00:48, 13 September 2011 (UTC)

And then it got removed --Mikalos209 (talk) 00:51, 13 September 2011 (UTC)

I moved it. You guys can duke it out on the talk page but I'm not seeing any actual policy breach. 00:56, 13 September 2011 (UTC)

Well Nutty, there are still several unresolved issues I am in contact with CP sysops over. For example, this incident reported here was a major factor in pushing reform at the time I did. Karajou posted to the mailing list 5 times about his discussion with Berlet and he was ignored. Then he blocked Berlet, when in simple fairness, the guy certainly should be allowed to respond to what Conservapedia writes about him. And Karajou's block was for ideology and no other reason, (as supported by the diff) although Karajou denies it. Karajou never once checked who created the entry on Berlet, or did a search of mailing list archives as me & TK discussed Berlet many times. Karajou not only violated all the rules of Conservapedia in his treatment of Berlet, he violated simple civility and common sense. The man is out of control and doesn't realize the harm he did to Conservapedia in his treatment of Berlet. nobs^{abandon hope all ye who enter here.} 01:19, 13 September 2011 (UTC)

I'm with you dude but I think you're driving Mikalos crazy. 01:28, 13 September 2011 (UTC)

And? He hasn't done nearly as much as Andy himself has--Mikalos209 (talk) 01:45, 13 September 2011 (UTC)

Look what Berlet writes about Andy's mother, and I get de-sysoped and blocked for trying to defend against this kind of stuff. You don't think there's a story here? My God, Berlet snapped the photo of Phyliss Schlafly Wikipedia used for several years in its article (see RobSmith to SDG, Thu, 1 Nov 2007 11:55:57 -0600, "Heads up, Andy"). nobs^{abandon hope all ye who enter here.} 02:04, 13 September 2011 (UTC)

I coluldn't care less about berlet tbh.--Mikalos209 (talk) 02:08, 13 September 2011 (UTC)

Yah well if the private mailing list stuff isn't leaked, and Conservaleaks isn't updated, it's gonna be your fucking fault. Just mind your own goddamn fucking business and stop hounding me.

Don't let Rob bully you like that. He's trying to turn the mob against you with their hunger for e-mails written by the community of hateful boorish retards of which he was a proud and longstanding member. Keep doing what you're doing. B♭maj7 "If two men say they're Jesus, one of them must be wrong." 02:27, 13 September 2011 (UTC)

Rob, i don't CARE if the fucking emails are leaked or not. I don't give a shit if "Conservaleaks" get added too or not. What i do care about is how you keep bitching about how unfair CP is like nobody here knows it. So go ahead, blame me if you can't bring yourself to publish the emails about people who hate you and will never care about you again.--Mikalos209 (talk) 02:28, 13 September 2011 (UTC)

I ain't bitching shit, I'm having a policy discussion with CP sysops. Jesus Christ you are dense as a fucking board, or maybe as dense as a CP sysop. nobs^{abandon hope all ye who enter here.} 02:50, 13 September 2011 (UTC)

With WHO Rob? The guy who blocked you for infinity? The guy who you fought with directly and is the current #2, Andy who stripped you of your rights and did the initial block? Terry who couldn't care less about you anyways? Who. Who the fuck are you discussing Policy with and where is the magic replies they seem to have? --Mikalos209 (talk) 02:54, 13 September 2011 (UTC)

And you have again lost any highground of maturity you migt have had. I am very curious now though Rob, what Sysops are you having a discussion with? Care to name them? Because so far they are as existant as the people Ken said supported him against you.--Mikalos209 (talk) 03:05, 13 September 2011 (UTC)

Fuck you. None of you goddamn business. nobs^{abandon hope all ye who enter here.} 03:06, 13 September 2011 (UTC)

Thank you Rob, At this time i am inclined to think your magical Sysops at CP you discuss with do not exist And im sorry, you aren't my type--Mikalos209 (talk) 03:07, 13 September 2011 (UTC)

Looking at this logically, only Andy, Ken, TerryH, Karajou and Ed are left as far as ranking sysops. Ken and Karajou were the ones that pushed Rob and TerryH, as evidenced by Robs email, isn't to enamored by Rob either. So that leaves Ed and Andy. Ed won't do anything and Andy won't do anything unless pushed....so that leaves...no one. Ace^ace 03:08, 13 September 2011 (UTC)

Andy showed what side he was on already, and we still have Joaquín, whatever use he might be to Rob,--Mikalos209 (talk) 03:10, 13 September 2011 (UTC)

Well this is an interesting discussion your having amongst yourselves. Now, the question is, to what objective? I am going to take the naive position probably uppermost in both your minds, and that would be the unblocking or perhaps re-sysoping of User:RobSmith, correct? Well, dear sirs, neither if you know or understand Rob Smith. For example, I was unfairly banned for one year in Wikipedia. For one year I neither sockpuppetted nor discussed with Mr. Daniel Brandt the reason for my banning, as per WP policy AGF (AGF was policy at that time, not guideline). After one year, my appeal was rejected and I was rebanned for asking for rehearing and Finding of Fact. It was at that point I approached Mr. Brandt and spilled my guts as to what I knew about the background and cause of all his problems with Wikipedia (BLP was started because of the Daniel Brandt controversy). I had proof positive high-level wiki admins intentionally, and maliciously, defamed Brandt. This of course, set off a new round of wiki-wars and policy proposals to deal with outing and harassment. To sum it up, I was more effective in helping to shape wikipedia content and user policies from outside, using their arch-nemesis the WikipediaReview forum, than being an active user. Now I know you guys just like to play on wikis. That's fine. but ultimately getting the job done is all that matters, but I know all this is just lost on you guys. nobs^{abandon hope all ye who enter here.} 03:44, 13 September 2011 (UTC)

Much of what you write is completely lost me. Ace^ace 03:52, 13 September 2011 (UTC)

Not a surprise. Why don't you just stay the fuck away then from things you don't understand. nobs^{abandon hope all ye who enter here.} 03:57, 13 September 2011 (UTC)

Because, douchebag, that's how you learn - by studying things you don't yet understand. For example I am totally perplexed by your hostility towards me. I thought we were friends and had many a pleasant email exchange. Ace^ace 04:00, 13 September 2011 (UTC)

Rob, I don't care what you did on wikipedia. I really don't. wAnt to know why? I use wikipedia to learn useless facts when i dont feel like wasting 5 hours on tvtropes. I don't honestly care about the internal policy, and I haven't since the fun days on the Kosovo recognition talkpage. Said disinterest is because it isn't important. Not because i am apparently an idiot.--Mikalos209 (talk) 04:11, 13 September 2011 (UTC)

CP sockpuppets

You do realise that just because Karajerk claims someone is a sock of SteveK that doesn't actually mean it's true, right? --Longbow (talk) 12:49, 30 September 2011 (UTC)

Yep. But he woulda been banned soon enough anyways. Plus generally puppet masters get banned with puppets, and officially he was a sockpuppet master, whether the official history is true or not is sorta irrelevant. --Mikalosa (talk) 13:24, 30 September 2011 (UTC)

It may be sorta irrelevant at CP, but most people generally think whether something's true or not is sorta VERY relevant. The fact is that Karajou is working himself into a paranoid frenzy. He pretty much blocks EVERY new user and his raving about sockpuppets is just a sign of his declining mental state. Anyway, the fact that Karajou is a dick is no reason for you to act like one. --Longbow (talk) 14:02, 30 September 2011 (UTC)

From what I know of Christianity, Ace's posited fuck-all attitude is out of touch with its teaching. Or are you some sort of Post-Modern Christian? Also, I mowed over your comment because of an edit conflict. Feel free to add it back in, just don't changed the title again. That's all.--User:Brxbrx/sig 01:53, 21 October 2011 (UTC)

Don't do that again. You really skewed the conversation. Granted, it was little more than an inconvenience, but it was an especially infuriating one. I would remind you that my sysop rights were removed (for abusive blocks. ironic, no?), and that I cannot unblock myself.--User:Brxbrx/sig 01:54, 21 October 2011 (UTC)

You know what kind of christian i am. At the same time, i spend a lot of time with people who dont share the same values(Something Awful Goons, /b/tards, that ilk), so i have a relaxed view on how others act. an ok And i didnt know your rights were gone, sorry. and i readded your comment--Mikalosa (talk) 01:56, 21 October 2011 (UTC)

No problem. Let's let bygones be bygones. Anyways, Ace attacks people. Do you tolerate that? The discussion is not so much about what Ace believes, but rather about how Ace acts. Ace acts without considering the feelings of others. I evoked his values to see if I could gain some clarity on this attitude of his, or even convince him to stop his behavior. --User:Brxbrx/sig 02:04, 21 October 2011 (UTC)

I dont neccesarily agree with him doing it, but it also isnt really hurting people (or, it shouldnt be). if it relly does hurt people then he should stop but... til then what can one do?--Mikalosa (talk) 02:09, 21 October 2011 (UTC)

Try and convince him to stop, enforce the rules upon him, or create rules to curb his behavior.--User:Brxbrx/sig 02:14, 21 October 2011 (UTC)
