Gawd. Get out the meds, please.
Durova republishes Brandt's page on her blog, threatens to have his Wikipedia bio republished, and mentions all of this in the same breath as another "unnamed user" who has been threatening to throw acid in her face.

Please.

Durova. Call the friggin FBI if that happened (the acid throwing, rapist threat). Since you don't work there, and have no idea how anyone got that idea, call the damned place, report the threat, and get the guy arrested, and stop whining about it online. But wait - you can't.

Because I bet you made it up.


Just like the threat to whoever, what his bone-name is, anytime you don't want to face reality, you scream "terrorist" (no, on Wikipedia it's) "violent threat" or "stalker". Stop that. Grow up.

Any sane person would have reported that to the FBI, ASAP. Do it, stop whining, and get the sob arrested. Full stop.

And stop picking Brandt fights. Because you should.

And stop making sxxx up. Because ... well, just because.

If someone chooses to play in the gutter, don't be surprised that others play the same way.

I think that how Daniel treated you sucked, frankly. But he's been wrecked all over the place by WP. For a few years. Think of how that horrid man treated you, and that's where Daniel is with WP.

Y'know, objectively speaking, I agree. I only found out really about the Brandt stuff on here, and relatively recently. I'd little idea as to what had gone on there, the revenge-creations, the socking at AFD, etc, etc. Totally wrong.

However, Brandt took me hostage and I got to pay the price. I've a welcome break right now, but I get to deal with this all over again next September 15. He got his redirects deleted. Hell, he didn't even ask me? I'd have done it myself in a heartbeat. I've already dealt with stuff subsequently, on request. Same as I would for anyone else.

Well, no it's not. Not by a long shot. Look - I'm really not into playing games about who-hurt-the-most-and-how. No point. This whole thing isn't over for me, and won't be any time soon. I just really don't want to have to keep talking about it on here.

That kind of over-blown hyperbole, so typical of Wikipedians, undermines your argument.

But Brandt is free to use whatever overblown hyperbole he wants?
