_ Editors _ Ottava's slime returns

Posted by: Web Fred

It looks like our little pal Ottava is using his trademark sliminess to try and use emotional blackmail to get his Commons account back.

Makes one want to puke (and not just in the passive sense).

Just ignore him and he'll have to go away.

God, you really are a nerd-ass Wikipedian, aren't you?. Well, keep us posted on how this turn out because we really care.

Or, better yet... tongue.gif

But in case anyone is still reading this stuff, Mr. Fred here is pro-porn, while Mr. Ottava is decidedly anti-porn. So, naturally, there is conflict. Unfortunately, Ottava's strident and divisive denunciations of everyone who opposes him have made him persona non grata in most of the venues where Wikipedia issues are discussed, including this one, so his only remaining option is to apologize (however sincerely or insincerely, though I suspect sincerity matters little to the average Commons admin) and hope they take him back.

However silly and petty the whole business ultimately is, they would be wise not to underestimate him. Many of them claim that he can be "easily reblocked," and therefore there would be little harm in what's being suggested. But while that might be true from a purely technical standpoint, from an internal-political standpoint it's simply not the case.

You cared enough to comment.

You call me "nerd" as if it's an insult. I am a nerd and proudly so.

Myself, I won't be satisfied until the last nerd on WR is hung by entrails of the last Wikipedian. I suspect this will occur sometime around September. Too bad just about nobody will be around to share this happy occasion.

I far prefer being a nerd to your performance as a paranoid fuckwit.

Mr. Fred here is pro-porn


I am neither pro porn or anti porn. What I am anti is low quality photography.

If there are going to be naked people or intimate shots of naked people doing pleasurable things to themselves or others then I believe they should be good quality.

I also don't believe that pictures of naked people (real or otherwise) is necessarily "porn".

I also detest middle America's fear of prurience, hedonism and sex.

Does that make my viewpoint clearer for you?

Have you spent any significant time in middle America? Or are you just confusing your bigoted misinformed mindset with reality?

Posted by: Jay

Ah, this is more like it. This is classic full-blooded WR.

Look, Ottava is not even a blot on the WMF scene. He is utterly and spectacularly insignificant. Why on Earth should anyone here waste time writing about him?

Because he's such a perfect example of how crowdsourcing can't possibly work?

Thanks for asking, but I have enough practical experience of the 'bible belt' to form a justified conclusion.

You might respond in a more cutting and effective manner but that is probably the best your nerd neurology will allow.

I'd prefer it if I took a "fucking shower" before I went to bed. I'll leave you to learn about the etiquette of forum quoting... in between your electro-shock treatments.

I love that argument, seriously. Someone (not O, but anyone) comes to WP and shits all over everything in that passive way that takes forever to explain to an admin. Other WP editors do their due diligence, file the reports, wait for the admins to notice, explain what's going on and how long this editor has been pushing the rules, and finally something is done about it.

Except later on, an admin lifts the block. He can be easily reblocked if he does anything wrong, of course. So for all you editors who spent time jumping through hoops trying to keep this guy from taking a longterm dump in the wiki, thanks for all of your wasted time.

It's just another scenario that helps people understand how worthless their time spent on WP really is. Good show.

Perhaps you'll just dodge yet again, but once again I will make the request; please list for us the things you have done to fight/combat/oppose/protest the Wikipedia and its perceived ills.

You're a critic. We get it. What are you doing about it?

,
"So fix it" is enemy doctrine. It is not my job, Bub. Anyway, at this point most of the bad experiences I've had with Wikipedians have occurred on WR, not Wikipedia. Besides, why do I need to do more after coining "compendium of obsession?"

An exceptionally good point, and I might add that it applies just as readily to criticism forums as it does to the wikis that are being criticized by them.
