_ Admin retirements _ Law

Posted by: Deodand

User:Law seems to have left, based on tiny hints like a massive fuck-off banner reading "RETIRED" on his userpage. No idea why - from the looks on the talkpage, none of the regular Wikipedia users know either.

Unfortunately for many people, Wikipedia is very much http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hotel_California_%28song%29. You can enter, but you can http://www.usemod.com/cgi-bin/mb.pl?GoodBye!. Because of that, people here and on Wikipedia tend to be cynical of Wikipedia goodbyes. You pretty much have to be banned and your IP range blocked for an eternity to truly leave Wikipedia. That or grievous injury or death. sad.gif

Hopefully, Law can break the addiction and move on. smile.gif

He isn't a lawyer. One of his early posts said he was an accountant working in tax law or something.

Newyorkbrad is a lawyer and Cool Hand Luke is a law student. I don't know about the other arbitrators. Scared yet?

Question: How many lawyers can fit at the bottom of the ocean?
Answer: Not enough.

Stephen Bain is either a lawyer or very close to being one. Of the arbitrators whose identities we know, that's it.

Law is not a lawyer. I think he said on his RfA that his username comes from a character in a video game.

You may have noticed that in RL there is something of a recession.

Lawyers are employed lots in boom times, where the expenditure on them is worth the value they bring in; busy and rich companies will throw money at litigants to make them go away. Lots of liquidity in the market place allows people to gamble on trying to grab what others are too foolish to lock up. When things go bad nobody wants to spend money on trying to squeeze a bit of cash out of a company that is going belly up. Those foolish with their cash are now holding a whole pile of empty.

There are a lot of lawyers with quite a bit of time on their hands, at the moment. Accountants are busy whether or not the economy is doing good or bad - but something like WP provides them with all the safe "risk" that breaks the ennui of their lives...

Doctors are fab. If there are any on WP, it is because they are brilliant and want to share.

I sincerely hope you're wrong about this, because the last thing Wikipedia needs is a gang of newly-minted Wiki-lawyers, manipulating behind the scenes and typing endless AN/I garbage.

Ah, yes. Well, I think he's just annoying. Humor similar to that of Raul654 with his Ceiling cat. Categorize those under "unfunny".

The ones with clue have to put up with all the idiots surrounding them. It's only reasonable that they decide to leave once in a while to get the hell away from them.

I'm generally a jovial and somewhat crass figure, but I'd like to point out that I don't quite understand this remark. Granted, I might be able to empathize with the sentiment behind it, but to me drama is not what I created. I did what I thought to be the norm - to retire with a template.

I wish I could entertain the community here and on WP with a statement on my userpage about philosophies that go into depth about my trials, my views, and my trying to fight the good fight. I wish it entailed my loss of faith in a system that had a foundation in decency, and it was the decline and irreverence that led to such an abrupt departure.

However, I was strolling (not trolling) the roof of my building here in San Diego (taking a 'wikibreak' from administrative duties), about a month ago. My journey to enjoy a menthol cigarette and a bottle of Stella Atrois was met with an unusual breed of female who was a goddess in form and style, enjoying a glass of merlot. As we talked I realized that her physical attributes were only met with what I consider a perfect amount of subdued intelligence, a healthy pessimism and a laugh that was quite intoxicating.

One month later, I find myself infatuated, and excited, railroading all plans I had to take my newfound Master's degree and move home. This seemingly unadulterated Siren has invited me to share her life, move in with her, and stay in San Diego. What started as a tryst has evolved into something one can only see as a long-term partnership. I fell in love and what's more, I realized that the break I took from this thankless title and 'duty to none' had resulted in such good circumstance, that I felt I no longer needed to focus on my contributions to Wikipedia, but what other great things lie outside my Internet?

So basically, yeah. I want to stay and contribute here because I feel I can add to the social interaction by virtue of my time and position on Wikipedia. So while I am quite content with my retirement from WP, I look forward to spending time here when time allows, and when I feel that I can contribute.

I do not understand the sentiment on my talk page because I think that I was not the greatest of administrators. I do not adhere to CIV, and want it destroyed.

I have a huge problem with BLP because editors cannot help but add information that is defamatory and what I consider to be insanely inappropriate. It also should be stated that I feel the same about bios of dead people, because estates and descendants have to deal with the same repercussions that are created by bullshit additions. WP is not responsible to handle any biography, and they only adhere to BLP for legal reasons, and not moral ones.

I also find AGF to be the worst of any rule, because it is what your spouse cries when you catch him or her in bed with another person. "AGF! It's not what it looks like." That's an insult to my intelligence. AGF is a license to portray yourself as a doormat - and a dumb one. That's not my thing. It's stupid, insulting, and makes everyone 10 IQ points dumber. AGF is makes everyone look stupider and if people spent less time on CIV and AGF'ing, I feel that as in real life, things would run smoother.

So yeah, this was too long to read. And yeah, it basically boils down to the fact that I found a chick with a killer smile and a huge rack, but if that is the legacy I leave, I'm pretty fucking happy with that.

I really can't think of a better reason than that to retire from wikipedia. The admin treadmill is pretty thankless anyway. God knows, there are precious few of them that I'd piss on if they were on fire. The feeling's probably mutual though to be fair. biggrin.gif

The editor treadmill is just as thankless, if not more so, as far as I know. People try to apply bullshit 'policy' universally and that is unrealistic. Let's block everyone for incivility. However, admins spew oral defecation when it comes to the blocking of content editors - namely they should be treated the same as other users. No. That's not real fucking life. You and OR and even Giano may get incivil (which I applaud), but you get fucked for it, just as if you were everyone else. It's always stressed that this is not a democracy. Good, stick to that. Admins need to stick with that. If a substitute teacher pissed in the corner of a room, fire the fucker. If a tenured professor did the same, I'd let him finish, show him to the bathroom, and when he was done relieving himself of his pressure, I'd figure out where WP went so wrong as to elicit this type of behaviour.

I'm considering being a bitch in the form of protecting RFA/Durova_2 per user request. I'm so sick of the women on this project crying about the alleged gender bias. Suck it up and quit bitching. Granted, the thread was about muscles most of the women on this project have never heard of, much less intentionally flexed for the purposes of toning them up, thus it is understandable this would hit a chord. Still, no one on the project has the right to be unoffended, and she's only found herself upset because 1/ she chose to be and 2/ she loves starting drama where none exists.

I'm so sick of the women on this project crying about the alleged gender bias. Suck it up and quit bitching. Granted, the thread was about muscles most of the women on this project have never heard of, much less intentionally flexed for the purposes of toning them up, thus it is understandable this would hit a chord. Still, no one on the project has the right to be unoffended, and she's only found herself upset because 1/ she chose to be and 2/ she loves starting drama where none exists.


There is nothing like a dame!


We got humorless admins
We got Wikis on sex toys
And on medical devices
That will work for girls and boys
We got goggled broads in armor
And a lot of party bores
What ain’t we got?
Strong pelvic floors.

Oh there’s something you can name if you do not want a stain
There is nothing in the world if you laugh or maybe strain,

Nothing else is quite the same, nothing in the world
Has the hard and rigid frame and the famous Kegel name

Oh, there’s something for a dame, something in the world
There is something not a shame that is helpful for a dame

There’s not a thing wrong with any admin here
That can’t be cured by putting them near
A girly bitchy WP dishy GAAAME

If that doesn't quite scan, I'm not going to fix it. Exercise left to the student.

I unretired to use the unblock tool today. I'll just hang my head in shame and head to the Support Forum. I feel so dirty right now.
