QUOTE(Jaranda @ Sat 20th October 2007, 2:35am)  mainly slimvirgin posts, etc
you call them attacks, I call them exposures of conflicts of interest that are attacked on WP by those conflicted. ever read those P. Salinger edits? Ever been asked "who do you think you are?" like the Mangoe was (and who can know the Mango?) Ever been called a sockpuppet in an edit summary? Only to have your return question not only blanked by the Queen, but delete/restore oversighted by her Crummy court jester? Ever seen someone double vote with a sock, then magically get off on some sort of random statute of limitations clause reserved for Friends of Jimmy? (Jimmy, you're starting to remind me of Ricky G. from "The Office"). Ask sparkzilla about how he was outed and "attacked" on WP sometime. Ironically, Slim participated in that with full on bloodlust. As she did in pursuing the identitites of anyone who crossed her wikiwarpath. Willbeback talks about fending off POV editors. WTF does he think Slim, Jay, and Gary are? NPOV depends on how far up your virtual friends' asses you are. This post has been edited by Piperdown: Sat 20th October 2007, 2:47am

I know it sets him up to be whipsawed between our insistence of the honest and fair use of language and the WPers who doubtlessly watch his every word on this site and insist on a code word meaning of "attack." But Piperdown is right. Inquiring into real life identifying information concerning an influential authority on WP is in no way an "attack."

I'd just like to go on record mentioning that Mr. JzG has always been kind to me, and I don't believe his removal of links is vengeful, but rather motivated by a desire to protect the feelings of his fellow editors, not a hatred of y'all. (Note that he also advocates keeping the channels of communication open.) My opinion on pornography is here....

Oh... my... God. AB, you can't be this stupid, can you? Or, is this an elaborate satire you're playing out on us? JzG is nearly completely driven, to the very core of his soul, by vengeance. It's the only reason he comes on Wikipedia each day (even after "retiring"), other than to flaunt his supposed wealth of knowledge. What other type of personality would be motivated to toy around with other users by zapping them with his " Troll-B-Gon"? As for keeping the channels of communication open, Guy Chapman is on record in a few places saying that he willfully ignores (or reads and elects to non-respond to) e-mails that are politely written but disagree with his point of view. If I were a sysop on this board, I would block you for your statement above, because it's pure gibberish. We don't need any more gibberish on this site. Greg

I call it responding in kind. I entered Wikipedia on the basis of a promise that it still advertizes, that it would be possible to fix its errors. I operated under my own name and according to the guidelines of good scholarship. I created many articles that were missing and I improved every article that I worked on right up until I encountered impassable obstacles in the attitudes of "editors" whose ignorance of the relevant methods, practices, and subject matters would be evident to anyone who had assimilated even as much education as I acquired in high school, much less college, much less grad school. I found myself being abused, attacked, and harassed by "editors" who operated under names like Banno, FeloniousMonk, Gwernol, JustZisGuy, KillerChihuahua, and SlimVirgin. The utterance and publication of their outright lies is maintained to this day in the pages and files of Wikipedia. Who the hell are these people? I have a right to know.

The vibes I get from Monsieur JzG are generally positive. When it comes to the subconscious mind, I don't think its a matter of intelligence versus stupidity, but rather good intuition versus bad intuition.

What other type of personality would be motivated to toy around with other users by zapping them with his " Troll-B-Gon"? Appears to be a joke, and anyway he's not an admin anymore. Sort of in the spirit of RfC 3514. Anyway, I told him I didn't think WP should drag the names / pseudonyms of banned users through the dirt on top of Google, and he agreed with me.

For the record, we don't block people here for gibberish. If someone routinely posts gibberish, that may be construed as trolling, which may result in being given a special forum of one's own for the posting of troll material. But, we have an anti-censorship policy in general.
