Wikipedia Sucks!

Should we bring it up here? I literally cannot stand the place anymore, so don't have an account. It is "Sperg Central" now. I would swear that just in the last year, it has become the most cyborg-infested site in history. Start a thread about anyone of a "prominent lolcowish" nature, and soon you will have 40,000 posts babbling about unrelated crap and conspiracies and people asking the same stupid questions (over and over) and the ED-style cranks bitching that it's "not lulzy enough" etc. etc.

Seriously I think I'm allergic to a forum. What is there to say about, for example, the endless Andrew Dobson thread? Now up to 2237 pages, and it's just a continuation of an older thread (which is "only" 1258 pages long!), ugh. Dobson is a complete nobody/minor irritant who just happened to be a Deviant Art admin for some years. He's kept a very low profile for the past couple of years. Yet people are still chasing him.

I dunno, I was kinda hoping we could make it to 2000 pages. That'd be like a milestone in autism.

No shit. And I think your forum won the Autism Gold Medal a while ago.

"The Farms" should be here for their shitty thread on VE7KFM, aka Canadian amateur radio operator Karol Florian Madera. They utterly back the US hams, even though it's a gang of cops and wanna-cops who hated how Madera would talk in Polish to other hams who spoke the language (there is a bullshit ARRL "rule" about using English for American on-air ham radio conversations, but VE7KFM doesn't fall under that because he isn't American!) You can tell that the original poster knows very little about their alleged hobby because they capitalize HAM, which is like calling an ATM an "ATM machine." "Ham" used to be what a "lid" operator is today, a term for poor operators.

In that KF thread they do not really recognize that Brian Crow and his confederates went online to smear Madera, that there are a bunch of one-shot, abandoned anti-VE7KFM Wordpress and Blogspot sites, that they used his callsign for the URL of their main attack site VE7KFM.com, that Madera tried to respond online but it was too late. Having heard all the edited, taped jamming done at 3840kHz and the WARFA net, I don't trust any of the alleged recordings at VE7KFM.com of what allegedly was transmitted on 14.313 and 14.275 kHz - it's been too easy to edit tapes for years. Do I think Madera is the 20 meter band saint? No, he probably said nasty things, after they jammed him or "keyed over" him - I've never heard 30-40 minute tapes of those frequencies, I've only heard that they were "zoo" frequencies to avoid. And I'm not going to make this more complicated by going through Riley Hollingsworth's involvement more than a decade ago.

That's how it is with The Sperglords who Mock Other Sperglords, they want their pet monkey to do tricks on command. It doesn't help that many of them identify as Incels ("involuntary celibate", it's an insane cult of online self-loathing for those not in the loop) and they use the terminology of GamerGaters and Alt-Right spudboys - I think most of them are faking Autism and playing dumb like the characters in Lars von Trier's The Idiots* (1998) as part of the endless number of private games that the social media section of the Internet has become.

Mr. Barbour you aren't allergic to Kiwi Farms, you are beyond it.
