Recently someone brought the issue of Raul654's sockpuppet account, User:Ceiling Cat, to the attention of WP:AN. The edits speak for themselves--they are nothing but foolishness of the sort associated with internet trolls, and some of it is disruptive foolishness. Many people on AN are of the opinion that an account like this, which does nothing but engage in low-level mischief, is all right as long as the user behind it contributes to the encyclopedia on another account--but if it were just some newbie, it would be banned, of course.

Wow. And people bitch about the Bathrobe Cabal.

Did you know that God is portrayed as Ceiling Cat in the Lolcat Bible translation project? Neither did I.

Raul654 says that he doesn't care about what is said on "Trollreview". However, it was just a week ago that he made it clear that he cares deeply about what I say here. He said then that I was using WR to "rewrite history" and expressed concern that new users would be guiled into believing my version of events, offering instead a "history of you" filled with staggering inaccuracies and peppered with insults.

It troubles Raul immensely that, through WR, people might learn that I was placed under a pile of unnecessary restrictions for purely political reasons (repeatedly opposing abuse of other contributors by powerful admins, several months before the actual case), and later banned for two weeks and placed under further restrictions based on blatantly false accusations made by Raul himself, in his multiple roles as accuser, prosecutor, and jury member.

Is Raul only concerned with what I say on this forum? It seems more plausible that he reads the forum regularly and takes it quite seriously.

Uhm. So, he's being reviewed here... so that would make him a troll by his own words, right?

Good job, Raul. You're brilliant. Way to think that one through. happy.gif

Raul is still trolling the main page's talk page through his Ceiling Cat account. (Another one from a week ago.)

Who else would be allowed to do this? If I were to create a joke account and go around trolling prominent talk pages, would no one stop me?

Although I think you take editing games too seriously, you have a point. I doubt your hypothetical "playful" sock would last so long.

First of all, I'm not sure I would call this "trolling." There really is a lot of blatantly anti-cat bias in the Featured Images category. For example, take this panoramic image of Bratislava - do you see even a single cat in that photograph? I mean, sure, there probably are one or two somewhere in the city, but they're all obscured by buildings and trees and so forth.

As for the second question, I would think more people would commend you than try to stop you, but that's just me applying my own personal value system to the situation.

He just keeps going! I propose that someone indefinitely block this account. It's a secondary account used purely for trolling and nonsense, and Raul should not get special treatment.

It wouldn't be so bad if it were funny.

I do so hope the little shit is reading this.
In which case:

Mr. Pellegrini, you are a tedious, lying, backstabbing asshole.
And most other people on WR will probably agree with me.

Just wanted to point that out. Thanks. yecch.gif


(and btw: there's not much traffic on this subforum, because
you really aren't very interesting. And besides, judging from
recent talk about Arbcom activities, you appear to have lost a lot
of your "power" in recent months. )

It seems likely he reads plenty (at least about himself) on this board - I'm reminded of his prompt retraction after this classic "NLT violation".
