Hild

Thank you. - Haukur 21:50, 26 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

No problem. Anything else I can help you with?

I know I had caused stress to many of you Norse mythology people, although that wasn't my intention. I still want to make up for it.

Vandals

I am afraid not. I am not an administrator yet. - Mike Rosoft 12:36, 27 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, you are adding the WoW template to User:64.27.5.168 - I deleted it and I deleted it again. We don't recognise IPs as sockpuppets and we never block them indefinitly. I have not blocked that IP as it has stopped vandalising, so there is no point in adding the template. Thanks. Izehar 13:56, 27 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Oh OK, sorry for the extra burdon, however we do block IPs on some occasions indefinately, I really suspect that one is an open proxy. --Cool Cat^Talk|@ 13:57, 27 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

It may be, but how do we prove it. I know that there is a way to check, but I haven't found out how to. Izehar 13:59, 27 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

irc bot

just to let you know the irc bot computer2 has gone belly up ;-)Benon 19:13, 27 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

eh? --Cool Cat^Talk|@ 19:26, 27 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

i.e. It's disappeared. Also please can you send me a version of your bot if possible. Fir e Fox 20:06, 27 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Only possible on friday as I cannot do anything. Net con the bot runs on is unstable due to a variety of problems ranging from power faliures to god knows what. We should campaign so that the bot runs on a wikipedia server :P --Cool Cat^Talk|@ 20:15, 27 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I assume you are ignoring me. Fir e Fox 20:13, 27 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

No I am not ignoring you, I only cannot respond the instant you post, geez patience! :P --Cool Cat^Talk|@ 20:15, 27 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I can. Fir e Fox 20:16, 27 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I can too normaly but often I do attention demanding tasks such as modifying the Template:Oh My Goddess Infobox-Generic which is tedious work as one error (such as an extra line) will break over 60 pages. --Cool Cat^Talk|@ 20:20, 27 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Fair enough. Is there any way you can send me your bot then? Fir e Fox 20:22, 27 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

No but I am attempting a remote dekstop which I so far havent been successfull. It sometimes works some time does not depends how much the computer I am using the one the bots running and all the ones inbetween feel like. --Cool Cat^Talk|@ 20:29, 27 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Where can I find your bot then to download a copy or something? By the way Computer2's disappeared again. Fir e Fox 20:31, 27 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Ill email it to you and I see the bot in the chanel please visit an optician. --Cool Cat^Talk|@ 20:55, 27 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Well it left and came back again. Fir e Fox 21:00, 27 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Why

Why are you standing in the way of the fight against WoW? Hexagonal 01:18, 28 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I am not. The only way RC patroling is acceptable is when RC patrolers do not interfere with the "article writing process", when writing on Kurdistan Workers Party I expect no one (or only an elite few) to know what my ip is. It is easier to write on such topics when you know you have annonymity. Furthermore nutcases such as Daniel Brandt should never have such access.

Also as an RC patroler I want my IP kept as a state secret away from people who try to spoof it. It has happened before and my IP has been blocked for vandalism even though it wasn't my doing. I obviously am not a vandal and the vandal spoofing my IP got it by dnsing me on IRC. Since then I have taken mesures to better hide my IP.

I never underestimate the enemy (vandals), while additional powers if used properly would help us deal with vandalism better, misuse of same powers would create a mess ten times worse. Unlike post sep 11th period in USA, we should not be paranoid at a post Seigenthaler here on Wikipedia.

CVU as far as anyone should be concerned is a joint effort against vandalism. It should not however hand over power to random people strictly because they are members.

I do however agree more checkusers should exist strictly to lift the weight from David Gerards sholders. He is doing a decent job but he is having a hard time keeping up with all of it. Arbcom should hand out more check users and the process should have nothing to do with CVU directly. --Cool Cat^Talk|@ 09:21, 28 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

This isn't about Daniel Brandt, nor is it about the Kurdistan Workers Party. We need you to join us in taking the fight to the vandals, not waiting for them to hit us when we're most vulnerable. Preemptive blocking is the only way we can keep them out. We know where they reside, and preemptive blocks will not only keep them out, but cause the disgruntled bystanders to pressure their ISPs to weed out vandals.
