Forum:This site is growing fat/trolling
- I think those who can dissociate themselves from the nonsense of this site deserve to make the decisions. Like me for example. I'd put an end very sharpish to little category editing nobs who seem to think they are improving the sum total behaviour of manking with this banal and pointless endeavour. MC.

Hi, This is John's brother. I know he has been using this account for a variety of reasons, none of them productive for his troublesome history of mental health problems. For obvious reasons I don't want to go into details about this but suffice to say my mother and father have decided to withdraw his access from the internet for the duration of his most recent treatment process. I apologise on my brothers behalf for any problems he may have caused this website during his period of instability. As you know, his posts have been of a bizarre quality but that is merely a reflection of his real world mental anguishes. MarcusCicero (talk) 23:09, 11 July 2009 (UTC) |

My glorious run has ended. This is not a case of 'leaving and never coming back', but more a case of 'burn out'. I created a personality on the internet so radically different from the real life version that I've forgotten even what trolls remorse feels like.. (You can thank Refugee over on RWW for providing the impetus) My highlights on RW:
One regret: Stooping to do the mental illness stunt. That was a terrible miscalculation. Adios RW! I may pop in from time to time, but at least now you'll know for sure than I'm a fully fledged troll! MarcusCicero 19:48, 5 December 2009 (UTC) |

On the other hand, the temptation to shake the ant farm and watch them scurrying to each others aid is far too great to overcome. MarcusCicero (talk) 10:45, 7 June 2010 (UTC) |
- Categories are an important function on a wiki, that is why they exist. But seeing as you have never bothered to look at how it works before criticising the wiki I probably should not have expected better of you. - π 00:13, 22 December 2009 (UTC)
- OH SNAP! I've totally been dissed!

- I think doing the opposite of anything MC recommends is a good way to run a wiki. --Kels (talk) 01:44, 22 December 2009 (UTC)
- I don't. I know he has not yet to made a good suggestion for improving the wiki, but he may still might one day by the stopped clock principle. - π 01:53, 22 December 2009 (UTC)
- Mmm, case by case, then. As a general rule, do the opposite. But if a good suggestion comes up, assume it's a clumsy attempt at reverse psychology, and fail to fall for it. A little more complex, but still workable. --Kels (talk) 15:28, 22 December 2009 (UTC)
- Why even bother to give that one any scrap of attention? When a tool or other item has failed to serve adequately, I ditch it. (I once saw an old-school Italian building contractor take a Sawzall right down the middle of a step ladder that had annoyed him somehow.) People, being subject to change, I grant greater latitude, but after prolonged repeated demonstration of unreliability or ill will, their names take a one-way trip from the Christmas card list to the waste basket. MC often shows up with an IP starting with 86. I think that's funny. Sprocket J Cogswell (talk) 15:53, 22 December 2009 (UTC)
- Guys, see what you're doing? This is the tactic: troll drives discussion away from productive areas, discussion then revolves around troll. Please stop falling for this. I'm drawing a line under it. Weaseloid

- Haha, that's why I originally put a line over it. But apparently that did not work. Tetronian you're clueless 18:59, 22 December 2009 (UTC)

- As ever, Armonikov is a the lone voice of reason in a desolate wasteland of bigotry and disharmony. I always laugh when I remember Jeeves and his indignant insistance that I should be 'removed'. Jeeves symbolises everything that is wrong and irrational about this website. And of course, like all natural autocrats, he is incapable of dissension and his knee jerk reaction is to silence anything that disagree with his bigoted world view. RW could do well to listen to Armonikov, she is one of the few RWians capable of self criticism, a talent very few of you possess. Also, you should ditch the likes of RA, Ace, Emperor etc., they do nothing for your street cred. Merry Christmas! MarcusCicero (talk) 14:56, 26 December 2009 (UT
The following screed was added by some BoN using Weaseloid's signature:
- The imbecile/cretin TOP brilliantly proved Armonikov's point I thought. That autocratic twat with no sense of humour is INCAPABLE OF TOLERATING DISSENT. What is his answer? Repression. Repress any speech contradictory to what is comfertable to your un intellectual sensibilities. That man TOP is by far the most insignificant clown on this website - he regularly fucks things up, overreacts, makes a fucking fool of himself and plays the fucking drama queen, and you tolerate him. Why? Why not just tell him to go fuck off and to take his authoritarian inclinations with him? Do you understand how dangerous it is to have such a vacuous imbecile in such a position on this site? Why do you not ostracise him? Ignore him? Bully him? Insult him? That is what he needs and deserves for being such a hateful prick. Now kindly take my advice, I have only RWs interests at heart. — Unsigned, by: 86.40.222.53 / talk / contribs 15:31. 27 December 2009 (UTC)
