> Visitor: So chuck, why don't we take this to mediation or arbitration? Wouldn't it be simpler than these endless reverts? <Vague_Rant> Although evidence that it was Wik can't be released. <Comrade_Nick> :( <Comrade_Nick> rick is kinda mean <Vague_Rant> Chuck already is in ArbCom, isn't he? > Visitor: I heard though that you've been banned from editing libertarian-related articles, no? <Vague_Rant> Rick is gone. <silsor> rickk is prickly but effective <Vague_Rant> He's on a wikivacation. <Comrade_Nick> he'll be back sooner or later <Comrade_Nick> i suggest you do the same chuck <Arminius> Rickk will most likely be back...unless he decides to get a life <Visitor-8315C> Actually thanks to me bringing an arbcom case against reithy and him trolling me, i'm banned from editing all +articles, which pretty much has shown me the use of talk as being ineffective now, becasue people don't have to have a reason <Arminius> yowza > Visitor: If you're banned from editing all articles, why are you still editing articles? <Visitor-8315C> because the articles are wrong <Arminius> is wal-mart paying you to do this? <Comrade_Nick> what's was wrong with the articles chuck? > Visitor: If you're not welcome to edit the articles, STOP EDITING THE ARTICLES. Geez <Arminius> or at least try to build up a false identity and edit that way <Arminius> ...actually no <Comrade_Nick> just take breather chuck <Visitor-8315C> Mainly the fact that these people refuse to accept the word modern mainstream as being anything but a weseal-word, +when it's quite impossible to argue against it <Comrade_Nick> (wik-vaction) <Comrade_Nick> vacation* <Comrade_Nick> brb * Submarine ignores Visitor-8315C *** Signoff: Vague_Rant (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer)) <Visitor-8315C> Submarine - thanks, But they were asking me what my problem was, I wasn't spouting off in the channel > Visitor: We have a disagreement over the facts, and most people think you're wrong. Instead of abiding the rules of the site, you +act rude, dodge bans, and stuck your stuff in anyhow /whois Visitor-8315C *** Visitor-8315C is ~dasd@r019195.203112.miinet.jp (cds) *** on channels: #wikipedia *** on irc via server irc.freenode.net (http://freenode.net/) *** Visitor-8315C has been idle 13 seconds, signed on at Tue Nov 30 03:39:22 2004 *** Visitor-8315C : End of /WHOIS list. <Arminius> re rant <Visitor-8315C> Submarine - And why do you have to mention the fact you do it? that's really rude, the only reason to mention the +fact is to be mean <Arminius> visitor:considering how easy it is to reverse people at wikipedia...you won't really ever "get your way" through +circumvnting bans <Visitor-8315C> Arminius - but when they are really minor things like the fact disambigs are normally at the top not the bottom and +nobody will listen to you thanks to the fact you have a temp injuction <Visitor-8315C> it's possible you might get your way eventually on that > Visitor: Don't edit means DON'T EDIT. > Visitor: Until the ban is over, your input is not welcome. <Arminius> visitor:is it worth risking a longer ban over sucha trivial issue? <Submarine> Improv, I think it's hopeless. <Submarine> Don't feed the troll. <silsor> doesn't sound like a troll to me > Submarine: It's important to try to keep dialogue open in some form while he's still editwarring <Arminius> submarine:don't inflame the situation > Submarine: If you prefer it happen elsewhere, I can understand though. <silsor> trolls get a kick out of your reaction, visitor is reacting <silsor> trolls enjoy creating controversy, visitor would rather have his own way in the controversy <silsor> there's a big difference > For what it's worth, I don't think Chuck is a troll, I just think he has a strong point of view and he is unwilling to follow +proper process in the dispute because any other views are an abomination <Visitor-8315C> why are you reverting wal-mart? check out the talk page, we've come to an agreement that examples of critcism belong +on another page > Visitor: You are banned from editing. Any of your edits are to be reverted on sight. <Visitor-8315C> oh, wow somebody updated the numbers <silsor> yes <Visitor-8315C> see, this is why I keep reverting improv - Because I can't discuss any changes with anybody, nobody will listen on +talk thanks to me having disagreements with reithy, who was obviously a troll > Visitor: Both you and Reithy are seen as trolls. <Vague_Rant> Some people need to restart their computers. * Vague_Rant needs to restart his computer. > Visitor: You will be unable to discuss your changes with anybody until your ban wears off, and so far, you're just making it more +and more likely to be a very long ban indeed. > Visitor: Take a break, wait for it to expire, and then talk before editing, regardless of your notion of right or wrong. > Visitor: You want to be listened to, you need to be civil. If you're not, you won't be listened to, and your points, no matter how +good they may be, will be ignored. <Arminius> improv is right, a little civility goes a long way > Visitor: Geez, cut it out. You're still doing it. <Arminius> wow if I can postpone this presentation a day and clean this up, it will be pretty good <Arminius> improv:you have warned him enough IMO > Arminius: I guess that's true. *** Signoff: _sj_z (Read error: 60 (Operation timed out)) <Arminius> I think theoretically you were supposed to do something after he/she admitted violating an injunction > Arminius: I'm not an admin :) <Arminius> oh <Arminius> is anyone else here an admin? > I am an old user, but never was nominated for Admin :) > Probably some idle people <gentgeen_> normally <silsor> yes, but I'm going to bed now <Arminius> I am sortof out of commission right now <Arminius> silsor quick block *** ambi (ambi@125.b.002.gee.iprimus.net.au) has joined channel #wikipedia <Arminius> oh wait <silsor> what why where when how who <Arminius> improv tell ambi the IP <silsor> how are you out of commission? > 200.226.137.10 and 200.226.137.11 *** ambi is ambi@125.b.002.gee.iprimus.net.au (ambivalenthysteria) *** on channels: #wikipedia *** on irc via server irc.freenode.net (http://freenode.net/) *** ambi has been idle 47 seconds, signed on at Tue Nov 30 05:00:24 2004 *** ambi : End of /WHOIS list. <ambi> whos IP? <OldakQuill> Does Rock formation refer to the actual creation of the rock - igneous etc. - or the structure that we see today +due to weathering > ambi: More open webproxies Chuck F found
