You don't seem like an asshole. From the looks of things, you do a lot and are just frustrated at the state of the wiki. --Grey (talk) 11:44, 18 April 2010 (UTC)

I side with Nx. Mindless evil Hoover! 11:48, 18 April 2010 (UTC)

Good, then you agree with all my points above? -- Nx / talk 11:49, 18 April 2010 (UTC)

No, I side with pre-strop Nx. Mindless evil Hoover! 11:52, 18 April 2010 (UTC)

I agree w/Grey--you're apparently--and quite justifiably--frustrated at some of the nonsense going on with a project that you've worked hard on. But that doesn't mean, as you go on to say, that I "agree with all [your] points above." You want those things to all be fair game? Start a discussion about changing the rules so they won't be. Let the mob speak on them instead of just doing them...P-Foster (talk) 12:51, 18 April 2010 (UTC)

Most of the things done were actually quite sensible. Deleting posts made by spammers (including the cheerleader shite) is of no loss to anyway. Freedom kind of vanishes when people become pissed by a site that is pretty much at the whim of any master cracker who decides to try their hand at vandalising a site that is reluctant to block. --^{Ask me about your mother} 18:20, 18 April 2010 (UTC)

I can't believe you are going to allow that autocratic fascist get away with all this. You should be ashamed of yourselves for letting him ruin this website. This website used to be a fun, now it's a boring place full of retarded rules and run by fascists.

Proposed punishment

1. Nx shall be required to find a creationist who seriously asks "But how come there are still monkeys?" and enter into a detailed discussion of the topic with them.
2. Nx shall be required to retain the curse of the sysop bit.
