That is by far Durova's worst nightmare and as far as I am concerned, the vexatious nature by which Durova has operated will come to a swift end...now. The nail was just tapped, then pounded into the Durova credibility coffin. It is long gone. The vitriolic condemnation of Durova may appear shortly, but I suggest remaining calm and simply nod your heads. (IMG: smilys0b23ax56/default/ohmy.gif) This post has been edited by WhispersOfWisdom:

I mean, that's happened before, certainly, but never quite so blatantly...
The only reason he was even unblocked is 'cause he has 100+ DYKs. Imagine how false positives that haven't been around for a while get treated. I bet their blocks don't even get questioned. Of course they don't. Why would Wikipedia want to be fair to newbies?

I guess you never heard that story about Wiki-Pinocchio … His Wiki-Proboscis Just Kept Getting — longer& longer& longer& longer& longer& longer& longerWhat people don't get until they have seen this trick a couple of dozen times — well, some of us get it after being fooled a couple of dozen times — it that this is precisely the way that the Big Lie is supposed to work, since people tend to get de-sensitized (what psychologists call "habituated") to each inexcrement in the size of the Big Lie, until pretty soon they are thinking that Pro-Bushkies that size are Normal.

It's a well-known φact, and I have the evidentiary secretions to prove it, that Durova made a mint selling chunks of the Berlin Wall as Wiki-Pet Rocks. Jonny (IMG: smilys0b23ax56/default/cool.gif)

QUOTE(WhispersOfWisdom @ Sun 18th November 2007, 7:28pm) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Adm...idents#FollowupIt sure looks like there is an election soon! Politics as usual. SWATJester's really piling in: "...what I've heard plenty of people saying on IRC....an editor so heavily involved in the SEO field, would use some "proprietary" investigative techniques on Wikipedia, ruin people's Wikipedia experience, and then refuse to provide any evidence to support the allegations out of a fear that those uber-valuable methods will become public...... Why are you sleuthing in the first place? Why, as it appears, is it your mission to hunt down other editors using private evidence?" That's rough. Durova responds by complaining about IRC. And why not.
