Re: Bobak the throwback

But that's the hilarious thing, the guy isn't even close to the inactivity threshold. You have to be almost dead for that to kick in. He even shows up in the "Active Administrators" list (the flaw of which is that it only measures edits, not Admin actions). But with a handful of admin actions a yea...

Re: Katherine Maher Named C.E.O. of NPR

Of course, since that alone is insufficient by itself to push the situation to the tipping point. But lately there's been an avalanche of scandals already such as pro-Iranian distortions and so on, and already there are signs of change in Google's Youtube that they are beginning to use other source...

As long as we are mentioning the idiot Beeb: does anyone think we should have a "Doxing Discussion" subsection on this forum? Might as well put all the "most evil" discussion in one place.

Re: Has Wikipedia gone woke? (Chris Troutman blocked for sexis

Because that's just what you do when you're an independent turner over of the rocks of Wikipedia, isn't it? Once again: do not waste your time trying to do it on Wikipediocracy. Failure is inevitable, followed by ol' Wee Billy tossing you out and disappearing threads. Still think you should toss it...

Re: Bobak the throwback

Ha ha. Another "trusted member of the glorious community" goes into the weeds, and the instant response of the other twits is "BLOCK-BLOCK-BLOCK" followed by whining to Arbcom. Because no one can be bothered to TALK to the guy, or try to reason with him. How many times have I seen this shit happen? ...

Re: Scotland implodes

You kinda new this would be a failure, because it was the brain child of left wing politicians. And it was. With their extraordinary talent for political failure, the left led hand holding coalitions of Scotland oversaw three terms with a reduced majority each time, the third defeat opening the doo...

Re: Kraken banned by Zoloft

This is all I've got--did not look into him further because he was a very low-profile admin. Until recently. The Anome The_Anome (T-C-F-R-B): One of Wikipedia's oldest administrators, and one of the very few still active on Wikipedia, after 13 years and 141,000 contribs as of 2014. He took his name ...

I could tell the Vig more about "The Anome", but they don't want anyone to "dox" or "harass" the Precious Insiders.
