Somewhat lost in the hustle and bustle of Wiki-drama was this nervous breakdown by admin Tanthalas39 on his user page: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=...oldid=264562383

He came back two days later. Personally, I don't think anyone missed him. (IMG:smilys0b23ax56/default/evilgrin.gif)

QUOTE(Proabivouac @ Sat 7th March 2009, 9:25pm) *

First, you demand evidence, and condemn that an accusation would be made without presenting it. When evidence is presented, you condemn that.

Lar has a problem, and lots of people know about it, but cover for him because he has power. Kylu is one of those who knew about it, but instead of backing whistleblowers he knew firsthand were telling the truth, he misused his admin powers to silence them. That's your Pristine Happy Magic Kingdom that was polluted and spoiled by this horrible leak (and there's more where that came from.)

Say, Random, you live in the same town as Kylu, and you're both coders…are you his friend IRL?

Just a lot of hypocrisy, Proab. Hypocrisy and revenge. Lar was a flirt. Shocker. People "covered" for him, according to you, "because he has power"... hmm, maybe they just feel like they have sort of a friendship with him, so they're just light-hearted about this particular trait of his. Or maybe they're just not all uber-sensitive about being hit on in text. Maybe you got kicked to the curb because you deserve it. I'm sure you don't see it, but plenty of other people do.

Watch out, Random, you're next. If you're really a woman, you better tell us now!
