Hilarious example of Jimbo demonstrating shitheadedness.

QUOTE
The founder of Wikipedia, the online “encyclopedia” that has damaged reputations with reckless, irresponsible and defamatory charges, has demanded of WND a correction to a column which characterized him as making a “fortune” in pornography before starting the company.


Among the comments is one from someone called Jeff Peters.
QUOTE
As someone who once wrote some of the few quality that existed and fought against much of the plagiarism, defamation, and rampant pornography on the site, I always appreciate it when people are willing to put up the honest truth.

He's clearly someone who can't ruddy write a grammatical sentence! I'd guess he's someone who's butthurt after being thrown off the site.

I haven't logged in here for a few weeks. In that time, this site has gone completely to ruin, and it's clear why. This thread was begun with an interesting post that deserved a thoughtful reply, but all that's happened is that Ottava has been posting a load of piffle, stifling sensible discussion and scaring away other contributors. No doubt he will now accuse me of being Indian, too, on the grounds that he (and only he) alleges that I am a sock.

Anyway, ignoring all that, I shall now respond to the first post.

This is a good example of the double standards that pervade Wikipedia. Other examples are the fact that Jimbo's own entry has long been semi-protected when few other BLPs are, the difficulty in getting mention of Rachel Marsden into that article even after dozens of newspapers had reported it, and the lack of articles on people who are associated with WP and the WMF bu tmight be embarrassing, such as Carolyn Doran.

Really, troll?

The thread began with a personal attack on myself and had nothing legitimate to say. You are well known to be a sock, and it is obvious that you are the same sock master.

Wrong; it began with a reference to an interesting article about Jimmy Wales.

Wrong again, as i proved by giving a reasonable response.

Nobody but you has ever said that, so it is scarcely well known. You are so predictable.

No. It began with an attack on my use of grammar. You are a piss poor liar.

It was pointed out when you first started. You never put up a user name because you are a sock.

If you speak English at all, you must accept that that was the start of the thread. How is it an attack on your bloody rubbish grammar? Yes, I then made a passing reference to an irrelevant comment that someone had made, but it was not meant to be an attack on you. How the hell was I meant to know it was by you? In fact, what's the evidence that it was by you?

No it wasn't. I've looked and there was never any such post. You're bloody lying again.

And I suppose The Joy, Carbuncle, taiwopanfob and everyone else without a WP account listed is a sock too. Try and develop just a little bit of sense.

Ignoring the second half. How cute. You created a coatrack to attack me then whine when I expose how stupid you are. It is obvious that you can't take anything even close to what you attempt to dish out.

I thought they would have raised children better in India.

Carbuncle has put up his account name. The Joy has admitted to using many accounts. taiwopanfob has been a well established user name on multiple websites related to Wikipedia going back many years. Even the name here was established in 2006.

It is funny how you, a new person without any background, tries to hide your obvious socking behind well established users. The Joy already pointed out that the other site banned you as a rather nasty sock troll.

You said you had a throw away account. You toss around hints at such things quite often.

Phrases like this ("my wiki gnome account" instead of "my account") suggest that you have different kinds of accounts.

It just seems natural that you are speaking about different accounts instead of the same account in different ways.

Firstly, as everyone else here realised


Really? Because the only statements that contradict my claim have ignored that the opening contains said attack. If you didn't want to start a fight, you wouldn't have put it in there. You trolled because you are a troll. The sad thing is that you are either incapable of being honest or you don't understand. From my experience, the Hindu people are rather honest, so I will assume you are doing it because you don't understand Western cultural norms.

I have only one account and it is a wiki-gnome account meaning that I only edit sparingly. (IMG:smilys0b23ax56/default/dry.gif)

Well, that is boring. The only edits you make are mindless corrections? You have become a wiki-zombie who mindlessly shuffles about. I'm surprised you aren't an admin. (IMG:smilys0b23ax56/default/tongue.gif)

I tried to "save" several articles related to the Military of India, but it was a fruitless endeavor. Most should have been scrapped and completely re-done from the ground up. I was not in the mood dealing with crazed nationalists that would likely show up and beat the figurative stuffing out of me. (IMG:smilys0b23ax56/default/confused.gif)
