SHE STILL DOESNT GET IT - Durova keeps making "joke" ANI edits, First Kelly, now "Doc" suggests that Durova is a troll... Options

So now she's defending herself by throwing other admins under the WikiBus?

The endgame, methinks, is upon her. She'll be banned by New Year's.

Durova has a point.

The standard being proposed in the Matthew Hoffman arbitration is long overdue, but must legitimately come as a surprise to a culture wherein administrators making careless mistakes at other peoples' expense is "no big deal."

The only reason Durova's block of User:!! had any consequence to her at all is because !! is the new username of an administrator, a fact which was euphemistically rephrased as "having a good reputation."

Moulton's Law: Once a bureaucracy makes a mistake, it can't be fixed.

It's unlikely Wikipedia will discontinue reprising that same kind of self-destructive mistake, with or without noisy dustups in the aftermath.

God. I know. She's like the unpolitical animal in motion.

Bangs hand on table in approval.

Although it's a long shot, Durova could theoretically have a genuine epiphany.

I'd rather see that outcome than have the remaining mob toss her to the wolves.

She also maintains that she never had an opportunity to present evidence

This is rich though:

She's trying to defend her service to the project.

Someone should block for for 2 or 3 weeks for her own good. She's embarassing not only herself, but the entire project (although making smacking good reading - who needs TV when you've got Durovaonline™?

I think a more practical shock treatment would be for the participants of the Wikipedia Intelligent Design Project to hold a public prayer meeting, and collectively pray for her soul.

What, own up to her mistakes the way Kelly Martin did?

And, as a result, fundamentally revise her values, beliefs, and practices.

Eventually, someone there is gonna be the first on the chopping block to manifest that epiphany. It's a hell of an opportunity for someone who genuinely craves attention.

It's also a tried and true way to garner amazing grace.

Can you please translate to English for us plebians? or to use a Durova-ism "what do you mean when you articulate that?"

Are you assuming that Durova will put herself on the chopping block? Why? She would rather die than admit fault.

No, she'll go down blaming everyone else and their mama.

That's her brand of attention.

An epiphany is when you have an awakening to an insight that has long eluded one's consciousness. After the moment of insight, revelation, or enlightenment, one sees things in a new light, perhaps changing one's core beliefs or habitual practices. For that to happen, one may also have to conquer a core fear as well. It might be fear of being the scapegoat. That's a very hard fear for many people to overcome. But as long as the community suffers from systemic dysfunctionality, there will be an indefinite need for lesser scapegoats. Eventually someone will have to step up to the role of designated scapegoat with enough courage to overthrow the dysfunctional paradigm.

Backing up again, you are seriously suggesting that Durova will have an epiphany? (and thanks, but I knew what it was - I simply could not believe you were suggesting this).

I believe what I said was something along these lines...

Although it's a long shot, Durova could theoretically have a genuine epiphany.

Ok. If you say so. I respect and admire your belief in renewal of the human spirit.

I find that hope is about the only cure for acedia.
