...ominous. However, it's easier to get stuff done on a wiki by actually doing it rather than pointing out shortcomings.--RosicrucianTalk 01:58, 5 April 2008 (UTC)

Oh boy, I hope he's here to edit out all the needless frivolity and mirth that makes this wiki so useless and unreadable! -hx 02:16, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
I've done stuff. But the ideas I have can't be done if I haven't been doing little things to prove that I'm not just a jerk making stupid comments and poking at people. For instance, I love frivolity and mirth, especially the kind that many don't see the use in. Attaching the removal of mirth to me at any point, however, makes you a tool. --Blue Spider 02:42, 5 April 2008 (UTC)

I can't wait to find out why we suck so horribly. You must be blessed with wisdom beyond all known capacities, non-contributor. Soon we will learn the silly error of our ways! --ItsWalky 03:05, 5 April 2008 (UTC)

So the stuff I think should be added to six or so articles and another kind of information thrown into all the characters profiles.... means that I think "you" "suck"? Wow! That's oversensitive. --Blue Spider 03:47, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
I'm beginning to think you don't interact with people much, at least not through text. Your user page is (was) extremely pretentious. --ItsWalky 03:54, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
What part is the pretentious? The part that did not say the wiki sucked or the part that did not say it needed me or anything I type? Now, it was brusque and left open the possibility that I think the wiki sucks. I'm a bit surprised that I have to clarify stuff specifically in my own User page in order to head off suspicions that I hate things. As for "interactions".... I really don't interact much in this kind of thing, no: generally when I type something short and non-informative in my User page I don't get messages telling me how horrible I am, or guessing that my intentions are contrary to the community's themes. I'm not used to automatic assumption that I didn't read half of the FAQs and guides regarding humor. --Blue Spider 04:17, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
In the time you've spent dithering with this, you probably could've fixed whatever problems you've noted. -- Repowers 04:24, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
Hell, he doesn't even have to fix the problems himself. All he had to do was tell us what's wrong instead of "I'll tell you in a week." That wastes time and accomplishes nothing.
I wonder if we're just being trolled. —Interrobang 04:31, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
Eeeeeexactly. "I think there are things that need improving on this wiki and I'll tell you next week what they are" is not exactly encouraging. Actions speak louder, and too much navel gazing doesn't get anything done.--RosicrucianTalk 04:33, 5 April 2008 (UTC)


Holy crap. Two sentences are interpreted as me thinking there are problems that need to be addressed and that things suck. I never thought that I had to say that things I didn't say outright are things I didn't mean to imply. I think I was having more fun when I left my User page blank and was outright ignored. --Blue Spider 04:39, 5 April 2008 (UTC)

The content and tone of the first 3 sentences of your userpage is nearly identical to a recurring troll (or possibly trolls) who've harassed this wiki. Saying the wiki has problems but you won't deign to explain what they are right now does not endear. Your total contributions thus far are miscellaneous trivia or potshots that got reverted. No one's accusing you of being a troll- but there is a cynical skepticism until you actually contribute non-token content. -75.168.112.43 07:46, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
The skepticism is warranted. The cynicism is not. --Blue Spider 23:47, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
