:I wanted to be more careful about removing ones I think are less popular, because I know there are a lot of rulesets out there which are played a lot yet I barely know about. Plus just because there isn't (yet) an article about a set of rules doesn't mean that they do not have a significant following.

Basically, that article was nominated for ], and the consensus was delete.

So far the one and only person who still calls me a vandal is ], the same person who started this whole entire mess by constantly removing content from ]. ] <sup>]</sup> 18:00, 30 November 2006 (UTC) | |||
:::::I want to be absolutely clear about something. The way I see it, to call someone a vandal (referring specifically to the user and not the edits) is to suggest that the only reason they are here is to vandalise. I did not call you a vandal, and nowhere have I suggested that you are only here for the sole purpose of defacing Misplaced Pages. I have kept my comments directed at the specific edits to the ] page. I still see those as vandalism. That wasn't just any link you kept adding. You had to have known by the fact that the target page had been deleted and protected that your edits would appear to be highly controversial and disruptive. Considering this and the contentious nature of the page in question, I still think your edits to ] were vandalism. ] 18:33, 30 November 2006 (UTC) | |||
::::::Does a vandalist in the "real world" have to only be there vandalising? No, not at all. Merely one act of vandalism (such as burning a letterbox or spray painting a fence etc..) is enough for that person to be referred to as a vandalist. I saw the addition of it as adding useful content to wikipedia. As for the fact it went to deleted page, I saw no problem whatsoever for that. In fact that is a GOOD thing, because people could go there are see the deletion archive or why it had been deleted. If a person is to search for this page there is a high likelihood they would search for the acronym due to the length of it's name. Thus they are easily able to see the page has been deleted, thus would NOT end up deleting it on a slightly similar page (i.e. mixing upper and lowercase or whatever). It also completely removes there being a high likelihood of somebody replacing the disambiguation page with an article about ]. But as it stands now what do you think are the chances of having somebody coming across the page and deciding to write the article there? Pretty good I'd say. But with the link there they are able to instantly and easily see why it shouldn't be there. ] <sup>]</sup> 18:50, 30 November 2006 (UTC) | |||

there? Pretty reasonable I'd say. But with the link there they are able to | |||
instantly and easily see why it shouldn't be there. Plus there is a world of difference to having a word mentioned on[REDACTED] page and to having an entire page purely about that word.

:You say now that was my final warning, for the first time. Never before had you used the word final. Besides, there is more so than just that. There should have been the warning template from ] as is required before I am even ''listed'' there. Which ] should have done from the very start. However you look at it from the many different angles the due process wasn't properly applied which caused an unfair ban. ] <sup>]</sup> 23:46, 30 November 2006 (UTC) | |||
I think you are misunderstanding the proccess. I don't need to use a template I can talk to you directly, you don't even have to be listed I can block you on my own discretion.

If a third admin answers your email than you can discuss it with that admin too, I am done. ]<small> <sup>(Need help? ])</sup></small> 23:52, 30 November 2006 (UTC) | |||
::unfortunately this whole mess seems to be too complex for anybody else than the directly affect party to bother with explaining. not being warned is only one a many reasons i've listed why this has been an unjust banning.along with the manner of the banning there is also the justification of banning due to vandalism etc... any one of the reasons i've given show why i shouldn't have been banned. ] <sup>]</sup> 01:01, 1 December 2006 (UTC) | |||
:For the record Mathmo, I did give you a final warning when I said ''"This is the last time I will warn you. If you add that link again I will report your actions to WP:AIV."'' I to did not use templates for this. ] 23:59, 30 November 2006 (UTC) | |||
::Do any of you read ] as opposed to merely going there? Clearly the zillion times I've linked to it simply isn't enough for you to get the point yourself. As such I'll list below a few of the key quotes from that page ] <sup>]</sup> 01:01, 1 December 2006 (UTC) | |||
#"'''Before''' listing a vandal here make sure that the vandal has been warned with the appropriate warning '''templates'''." | |||
#"If you '''can't justify''' leaving these messages on a user's talk page, it likely isn't vandalism." | |||
#"Users '''must''' be appropriately warned using a final warning template" | |||
#"'''before''' being listed on this page". | |||
#"Users '''without''' appropriate final warnings will '''not''' be blocked." | |||
You raise an interesting point Mathmo. I had forgotten that WP:AIV talks about warning templates rather than warnings. However, from the first to the last my warnings were quite clear, and I hardly think you can seriously claim that because they were not standard templates that you were not warned. This is a moot point anyway. The reason for the block was not vandalism but trolling. ] 01:50, 1 December 2006 (UTC) | |||
:thanks, now you too are starting to see one of my points. just is silly how slow this is taking for people to realise what i've been saying. oh well... Back on topic about warnings, people can throw around and talk in a highly loose manner of bannings etc.. (and some of the worst are those who don't even have the power to). Hence you can see why you have to have these measures and formality in place for warnings then later final warnings by way of templates. they even go so far as to explicitly state that a user will NOT be blocked without that happening (which didn't happen with me at all), and stating other stuff too such as shouldn't even be listed here without the template (which as you now know is something you did '''not''' do). As for the other point of "trolling", that was only ever brought up '''after''' I was banned, if this is truly a valid reason for my banning then it surely out to have been brought up many times before and in detail, like was done with the claims of "vandalism". As opposed to not at all. Makes no sense whatsoever for "vandalism" being the only claims being brought up against me beforehand and then for people to say the blocking is for something completely different. ] <sup>]</sup> 02:54, 1 December 2006 (UTC) | |||
::I just want to clear up some confusion here. There is absolutely no requirement that you use the standard templates when warning people about any particular behavior; the templates are there for ease of use. There is no formal procedure that must be followed when advising other editors. Again, since you were not blocked for vandalism, all of this is moot. Also, it doesn't matter what label was used, you were very clearly asked to stop what you were doing by more than one person. Edit warring is never ever productive behavior. If you're just learning about these types of things now after being here for two years, this might be a good opportunity to stroll through the policies and procedures to avoid further issues. - ] <sup>]</sup> 15:06, 1 December 2006 (UTC) | |||
#Yes I am aware of various policies, and have been checking up more on them recently just to make sure what I believe is correct. And it is always bringing me to the conclusion that this whole procedure has been unfairly weighted against me. After all clearly what ] did to me is fine because he has not been reprimanded in anyway to the slightest degree, and what editing I did was in no way whatsoever fundamentally different from what he was inflicting upon me. | |||
#Secondly as I elaborated upon on above, a merely typed warning in part of general comment does not carry the same weight as a template does to the slightest degree. | |||
#Thirdly the '''ONLY''' specific claims being leveled at me prior to my warning was of vandalism, so to then be banned for any other reason than that carries very dodgy undertones. After all if these truly are valid claims then surely why in the world where they not mentioned to me at all prior to being banned? As opposed to almost being plucked out of thin air '''afterwards''' to justify the users actions. | |||
#Fourthly, for you to say there is "absolutely no requirement that you use the standard templates" is waaaay off the mark. If you need to read '''again''' my quotes above then please do so. Or alternatively go straight to the source at ] to which I have many '''many''' times linked too. As you can quite clearly see it very explicitly says that the '''appropriate ]''' must have been used before even being listed on ] let alone blocking. | |||

=="Trolling"== | |||
Seeing that ] has recently been keeping on going on just about my supposed "trolling" (which I have at all times denied) I'll have a section here to address that specific fact (but do not be forgetting the many other related issues I've brought up that are all highly related to the matter at hand). Have any of you read the relevant pages related to trolling? For instance go along to Misplaced Pages:Troll, there you can see that it is NOT a policy or even a guideline of wikipedia. Other facts to take note of is that Administrators are '''not''' empowered to block usernames for "trolling". This due to the impossibility of defining exactly what it is to be a troll, which makes it complete nonsense to be able to have comprehensive approach to blocking a user due to "trolling". (even the blocking policy page does not have even one reference to trolling anywhere on it) Is easy to see how over just this '''one''' aspect I am very upset that that I've been banned by ] for this crime of so called "trolling". ] <sup>]</sup> 20:53, 1 December 2006 (UTC) | |||

Might add something similar to my own one day, is good for people to keep a bit of humour in what they are doing and not get too stuffy with the seriousness of it all. Otherwise things can just go downhill from there. ] <sup>]</sup> 13:31, 21 December 2006 (UTC) | |||
== Multisport-stub == | |||
Hi - I see you have created a new stub type, Multisport-stub. As it clearly explains at ], and at the top of most stub categories, all new stub types should be proposed prior to creation at ], so that they can be checked for viability, and to make sure they don't go against either the stub category hierarchy or stub naming conventions. In the case of your new stub type, it was not proposed, and unfortunately is incorrectly named - there is no parent category {{cl|Multisport}} - the best parent would be {{cl|Multi-sport events}}, and as such it should have been called {{cl|Multi-sport event stubs}}. Furthermore, there is considerable doubt it would have the required number of existing stubs (60) to be regarded as a viable stub category. The stub type has been listed at ] - please make any comments as to the reasons for and possible population of this new stub type. Be warned that it may need to be renamed and may even be nominated for deletion via ] if it is deemed not to conform to normal stub type criteria. Please, in future, if you wish to create a new stub type, propose it first! ]...''<small><font color="#008822">]</font></small>'' 06:55, 26 December 2006 (UTC) | |||
:Thanks for bringing these various points to my attention, and now that I look at it again I'd be agreeing with what you are saying too.

Well, Mathmo, seems you are on your way to becoming a former Wikipedian. The link you posted had a virus at the other end. Unbecoming of an officer in the NZ Whatever Force. You should perhaps rethink the reason you have chosen to be a Wikipedian. You have already been blocked for vandalism; what's next ? Somehow you are mad about the Functionality Creep purveryors ? Well, join the conversation, rather than looking infantile and pathetic. BTW: The virus upload was unsuccessful, as with my internets savvy, duh, I, uh, was able to block the thing. <small>—The preceding ] comment was added by ] (]) 21:55, 29 December 2006 (UTC).</small><!-- HagermanBot Auto-Unsigned --> | |||
:Firstly there is no virus there, it is just a joke for everybody to enjoy and bring a bit of light into their day (or not, if the happened to get out of the wrong side of bed). More likely if you are having a problem with a virus it would be due to something at your end. Secondly, I was not blocked for vandalism. That has already been determined, and even though there are still things done wrong about that which I feel upset about I'd rather just leave that in the past. ] <sup>]</sup> 02:18, 30 December 2006 (UTC) | |||
== Virus absolutely verified by computer expert from HP == | |||
The "joke" page contained a virus, which was determined by a computer scientist from HP who shall remain anonymous. My computer was cleaned from head to toe as a result, and the site investigated. Thanks for your comments. Users who make "jokes" are not serious about the Misplaced Pages project in my view. Please do not place fake redirects to external pages with viruses in the future. Thank you for your anticipated cooperation on this issue. ] 02:37, 30 December 2006 (UTC) | |||
:I'll repeat again, it is likely the problem is on your end (either that or you are outright lying and making it up?). Both my brother and I are one of the top computer science students in NZ, and neither of us could see a problem there. There is nothing wrong with having a bit of a joke so long as it is not overly disruptive, it improves the over all mood of the project and can make it more warm and inviting to newcomers and regulars alike in my opinion. See for instance ] and ]. Now smile and have a nice day! It is new years eve.... ] <sup>]</sup> 02:54, 30 December 2006 (UTC) | |||

Thanks. I think that's the first time anyone has ever commented on my diaries without being prompted. Are you a PUA btw? Got a myspace profile? ] 06:56, 30 December 2006 (UTC) | |||
:Replied on your talk page. ] <sup>]</sup> 07:10, 30 December 2006 (UTC) | |||
I'm doing okay. In fact ever sice I attended a PUA workshop about 2-3wks back I've been avoiding my resources for fear of poisoning what I've learnt. That, and I've been experimenting with some stuff of my own. For example, the fact that women love the word "dork". I'm probably a GPUA myself, but I don't know what the G stands for. By the way, editing a myspace is dead easy. And for that matter HTML isn't too bad once you get to know a few things. Do what most people do: head over to mytheme.com it's dead easy to use to customise your profile. ] 13:59, 30 December 2006 (UTC) | |||
::G stands for green.Interesting concept there,"poisoning what I've learnt". Wouldn't mind doing a workshop, but don't have that kind of money at hand (going to have to try and see if I can get an overdraft at the bank just to afford my next Ironman race). Plus also there never have been (and probably never will be for quite a while into the future) workshops in NZ (whereabouts are you?). So in the end it doesn't matter if I have the money or not. ] <sup>]</sup> 15:25, 30 December 2006 (UTC) | |||

::Yeah.... you seemed to have read the exact opposite. I certainly wouldn't have a problem with creating a myspace page, it is piss easy (I've been to international competitions in programing as the team captain for my University, that gives you an indication of my level of skills). Rather what I see the problem with myspace is that the average person can mess up their page and make it so sheer ugly it is quite a turn off. Meh, but then again it does have it's advantages. There are a bunch of people I'd like to keep in contact with through this. What is yours? ] <sup>]</sup> 15:25, 30 December 2006 (UTC) | |||
:. While you're on there you can tell what needs to be altered looks-wise. It's a shame that there are no workshops in NZ, and that you can't afford them. The best thing you can do if you want to get better is go out and experiment, perhaps even open up your own school, but from what you've told me you don't seem to be doing too badly. That's sort of the point where I am. I'm trying to experiment with what suits me and my personality best. Anyway, keep in touch, can't wait to see your profile if and when you get one. ] 20:19, 1 January 2007 (UTC) | |||

::We are the friends of Kreepy krawly. We are Kreepy krawly. Kreepy krawly, as if this even needs verification, does not hack. He is a lexicographer, a writer. He resides in England. We program, he does not. We do not hack. We identify and warn of hackers, and their more troublesome brethren, the crackers. Top computer science student ? Well, that puts our esteemed colleague in an uncomfortable position as being more-than-capable of malicious web crawling. Like the trolling recently observed at the Functionality Creep Talk page. The actions of our esteemed colleague were and shall remain hilarious. Yes, hilarious. Hysterical, even. The diversionary tactic of "warning" others of Kreepy krawly's web habits are also hilarious. He is an esteemed member of our community, and a professor at a local university. Thus his following. Thus our trust in his integrity. Others, such as our esteemed colleague Mathmo, have only themselves to blame for diverting attention to their own behaviour. Consciousness does not imply a "conscience." Interesting conversation. Indeed. Do not post fake addresses anymore with links to viruses. Do not do this again. Thank you in advance for your anticipated compliance with this simple request. We do not tolerate trollers, hackers, vandals, or crackers. | |||

Not to mention hackers and computer science students. ] 00:35, 5 January 2007 (UTC) | |||
:::::::WHAT?!?! You say that as if computer scientist are something who need to be defended against, absolutely not. Without people like us you wouldn't even be accessing the internet at the moment. And lastly, I'm telling you once again do not be messing with the format of my talk page. It is disconcerting and in extremely poor taste for you to be doing so. ] <sup>]</sup> 07:18, 5 January 2007 (UTC) | |||
::::::::It seems that you are unable or unwilling to respond the the actual question at hand. "What disruptive edits ?" Check my contributions page and name them, my esteemed colleague. I'm sure that the innovators at ARPAnet are the original innovators of the internet. I would be more than happy to entertain a discussion as to what my esteemed colleague Mathmo has done to provide for the continuance of the internet. Computer scientists, and computer science students, are necessary to the Information Age. Thank you again for "telling me" how Misplaced Pages should be formatted. I appreciate your ongoing constructive criticism into the matter. ] 21:59, 5 January 2007 (UTC) | |||
:::::::::::Please stop using the phrase "my esteemed colleague", ''Ben''. Obviously you don't hold Mathmo in high esteem, else you wouldn't have accused him of uploading a virus. This isn't some kind of game. You are disrupting a very cool thing with what appears to be total nonsense. Mathmo has asked you to stop re-formatting his page. Why wouldn't your immediate reaction be, "I'm sorry. I'll stop doing that because it displeases you, as I can tell by your repeated admonishing"? I consider you to be a vandal and a disruptive force. Your IP should be banned and all of your pseudonyms banned from this website. I may even register as a user (like you suggested so long ago, Kreepy krawly/Ben/71.210.62.238) Notice the lower-case 'k' in 'krawly'? That's how you want it, right? | |||
::::::::::::My esteemed colleagues: My name, and nobody, in our collective, is called "Ben." Sorry to dissapoint you. In fact, the original Kreepy krawly is named "Dan." I hope this causes extreme pleasure on the part of my esteemed colleagues. You can email me at: dancalliper@gmail.com . Hope to hear from you. My "reformatting" follows Misplaced Pages clarity standards. Space properly, indent properly. Obviously the "Functionality Creep" discussion was fruitless for my esteemed colleagues, so now the discussion has devolved into "how many spaces and colons." Interesting. While you may consider us a vandal, our contributions do not show any vandalism. Such as our edit to the "Pomona, California" page. Was this edit vandalism ? How about the "Mycotoxin" page edit ? More malicious vandalism ? | |||
You claim the virus was a hoax, but my computer logs and registry files indicate otherwise. Claims to the opposite are attempts to offset personal responsibility regarding the flawed discussion on the Functionality Creep Talk Page. Oh, and that is how we want it. We are Kreepy krawly. Thanks for you adherence to the priciples of fairness and constructive dialogue. Our IP is directed to an IP in Montana for security purposes. That is how we like it after the virus attack. And that is how it shall remain. ] 00:41, 7 January 2007 (UTC) | |||

== Wikistalking == | |||
Shortly after a disagreement on one article, I suddenly found you cropping up on another article that I'd recently edited, inserting a link to a pornographic Website that was both unnecessary and objectionable (in that there was no indication as to what the link led to). Looking at your Talk page, I see that this isn't the first time you've done this sort of thing. I strongly suggest that you rethink your behaviour. It's one thing to see an example of poor editing (poor English, poor coding, PoV insertions, etc.) and follow up on the editor's contributions in order to clean up further examples; it's another to follow the editor as a response to a disagreement elsewhere — and when your consequent edits are themselves questionable, the accusation of wikistalking is virtually proved. You really don't want to go down that road. --] (]) 12:11, 29 January 2007 (UTC) | |||
:I don't believe that it was, rather it was a very useful and relevant illustrative example. Neither should anybody be in anyway whatsoever surprised as to where the link went, after all it did say '''pornographic website'''. You have got to be kidding me here, how much clearer could it be than that?! To claim stalking is also equally silly to me, this is but one instance where we both happened to edit a page (other than the obvious example). Stalking must be vastly more extensive and deliberate than that. Besides, user contributions is a better way to browse about than "random article" and I look at more often I expect which people who I've had no disagreement with at all as those who I have had. Just obviously it is only those who have previously disagreed with me who then immediately leap up and shout claims of ''"stalking"''. ] <sup>]</sup> 12:24, 29 January 2007 (UTC) | |||
::First, the link said nothing of the sort; the context suggested that the link might have been to a documentation of such usages (as most other such links do). (The other link that you added to the references section wasn't connected to anything in the article, so isn't a reference.) | |||
::Secondly, I gave a warning; I didn't immediately convict you, otherwise I'd have taken steps to have you blocked (though I have alerted other admins in case this is your standard way of responding to conflict). Perhaps in future you should follow up the contributions list only of people with whom you haven't just diagreed, in order to avoid the impression of wikistalking. Either that, or don't trawl through the history of such articles in order to see how the editor in question has been editing; interest in the article doesn't entail doing that. --] (]) 12:33, 29 January 2007 (UTC) | |||
:::How unsurprising it is to see my esteemed colleague Mathmo up to his old tricks again. It seems that Mathmo considers Misplaced Pages a sort of playground where he can stalk, harrass, and excoriate users for his own agrandizement and amusement. We, Kreepy krawly, have been monitoring our esteemed colleague Mathmo's contributions since the unfortunate incident discussed under the title on his talk page: Virus Claim is a Hoax. We have saved the deleted talk page from Functionality Creep if anyone would like to view Mathmo's style of discussion. It is unfortunate and amusing, but neither professional nor serious. Mathmo seems to always come back with absurd denials which amount to "Me ? C'mon, dude ! You're thinking of that other guy !" That of course was not a quote, but a subjective summary of our opinion of his discussion style. In our opinion, Mathmo does not take Misplaced Pages seriously. ] 23:12, 29 January 2007 (UTC) | |||
== Pimps == | |||
A pimp lives off the avails of prostitution; it is a lifestyle which typically entails a substantial amount of violence and/or degradation. As such, I block those whose usernames proclaim "pimp", for the same reason I block those whose usernames proclaim "Nazi". ] 04:17, 30 January 2007 (UTC) | |||
:There are a few problems with what you said, one of which you are projecting onto this your own personal opinion of prostitution by calling it degrading. While prostitution certainly isn't on my own personal list of top 3 job careers (though oddly enough a couple of days ago my girlfriend started discussing with me if I'd ever considered becoming a prostitute), I do leave that behind when discussing on RfC. Another flaw in your logic is that you are assuming there is only one meaning of Pimp, for many people it has a meaning similar to "player". I'll leave you with this little thought, would you block everybody who has the word Maddam in their username? ] <sup>]</sup> 04:33, 30 January 2007 (UTC) | |||

Title sounds like a 70s band doesn't it? lol. OKay, let me start with the pickup wiki. I never really bothered with the Dallas PUA Wiki, I just kept it there as a reference. The pickup wiki I discovered is pretty user-friendly. If you know Misplaced Pages, you'll easily know how to edit this particular Wiki. | |||
As for Joseph "ThunderCat" Matthews, he does indeed spam, but he is important for a number of reasons: | |||
* It is by stumbling upon him that most guys find out about "the community". | |||
* He is connected with most of the PUAs out there, whereas quite a few of them have issues with one another. This is a trend that is starting to change as it goes (as most sciences and arts do) from being something which few can do and do well, to an industry with standards, and codes of conduct. | |||
* Every year he hosts the "pickup artist of the year award". Most people don't agree with it, and I'm one of them, but in response, guys like Attraction Chronicles have started hosting their own "Dating coach of the year award", which asks for the opinions of other people. | |||
* He helped bring "Style" to fame as the number one PUA. Whether you agree or not is up to you, but he has stuck up for AFCs and the community more than any other PUA out there. | |||
Back when hotmail.com was 250MBs I cancelled my account with ], but I've now reopened it under a separate walla.com account which I keep just for PUA related spam; and there is lots of it.

Oh... and while I'm about it.... sorry to be a spelling nazi but this is the second time I've seen you spell seem as seam. If you know the difference then ingore this comment, if not it would help for you to look it up. ] <sup>]</sup> 00:30, 13 February 2007 (UTC) | |||

:::lol, I think I need to go check if there is an appologetic barnstar! There probably is. I've had friends doing ], interesting subject. Though I'm a Physics/Math/CompSci student myself (no english there! Wouldn't want to study it myself, well... is at least very low down on my list of favourite subjects to study). I'd have completely ignored your spelling error normally (it did stand out bodly to me the first time I saw it a few minutes ago), but when I see it a second time soon afterwards... for such a simple word too (is only four letters long, sure if it had been ''twenty'' four letters long... that is completely different)! Heh, my perfectionist side and eager to help side comes out. Anyway, am getting extremely sidetracked here. But doesn't matter, because I've already answered your main point on the AfD... ] <sup>]</sup> 00:43, 13 February 2007 (UTC) | |||
