Visual Editor
Visual Editor is now online on the wiki. However, personally, and I have receieved the same view from others, the new editor is a bit of a pain and quite annoying. Now for those user who do not know, you can still use the old editor by changing personal preferences and choosing the "Classic Wiki-editor".

Although I would like toknow what the general opinion of this new editor is and if we should generally still use the old wiki-editor throughout the wiki? Imp (Say Hi?!) 19:46, November 13, 2014 (UTC)

I have seen a lot of people upset about the new editor, including EoGuy, LaptopZombie, and Crim to name a few, and personally have sent messages to some people showing them how to switch back to the old editor. Based on that I'd say the new editor is very unpopular. Perhaps we should hold a vote here. Mscoree (talk) 20:42, November 13, 2014 (UTC)

In Eo's case, he needs source mode- so for him it's justified. I can't speak for LZ, but Crim is being a whiny old fusspot.

I personally love the new system.

22:56, November 13, 2014 (UTC)

With regards to map games, I don't like the new editor, although for editing timelines or general articles I like it. However, I don't know if we as a wiki have the authority to change something on that scale, and I think there would be opposition if we could. I think we should just ensure that people know how to switch back if they want to.

"This is not your grave  but you are welcome in it. " 23:01, November 13, 2014 (UTC)

The new one is garbage except that it makes editing templates easier. I still use the old format  (classic or whatever). I vote to have a vote.

23:47, November 13, 2014 (UTC)

Me, I've always used source mode, seems best to edit on a tablet, In my opinion. Especially if you always use it for wikia XD. Saturn (Talk/Blog) 00:27, November 14, 2014 (UTC)

Personally, being new to the wiki, I think that the new editor is better than the old. But I do think that we should have a vote on it. Upvoteanthology (talk) 01:20, November 14, 2014 (UTC)

Personally, I hate it. I want to use the old editor and had to change it in my settings. Reason why I don't like it is because it takes forever loading on my crappy school laptop, I also just want to edit particular sections when it seems to edit everything. Aternix !?  01:24, November 14, 2014 (UTC)

Advantages:


 * On fast connections, it loads WAY faster cause you don't need a whole new page to be loaded.


 * Makes editing general TL pages and talkpages much easier.


 * Makes editing templates easier.

Disadvantages:

Well, not so much a list of disadvantages as a list of salty old curmudgeons.

01:48, November 14, 2014 (UTC)

Source editor ftw, just give people the choice to switch between editors if possible so we are all happy? We each have different preferences and needs for the editor so lets do the best to accomodate as much diversity as possible. VonGlusenburg (talk to Von!) 02:46, November 14, 2014 (UTC)

Guns I don't know what you're talking about. For me, on several devices, it takes on average five times longer for the new editor to load. On top of that it makes editing large pages and templates almost impossible, and makes even the most basic edits difficult. I literally tried three times just to sign my signature on TE v. CP, before having to switch to source editor in preferences. Mscoree (talk)

Well, I dislike the new editor (primarily due to the map game issues) and the first day it came out, I figured out how to fix the problem by setting preferences. The new editor definitely needs to be worked out on a Wikia-wide scale, in my opinion.

For now, however, we can manually revert to the Classic or Source editors depending upon our preferences. Are we even sure that the TSPTF can change the default on the wiki, or is this all hypothetical?

I agree that we need to have some sort of a vote on the matter, that or the TSPTF should have a vote on the matter. But, as I indicated, this vote will really have no effect on users who can access preferences. The best solution would be to simply inform people who are upset how to change their preferences in the event that we decide to stick with the system. Yours in Wikihood, 05:50, November 14, 2014 (UTC)

Ok, so some like it and some don't. A clear solution is just to put up a guide on how to manually change personal preferences. It keeps both sides happy. I'll put up a guide on here in a few hours. I'll also put up a link for it on the community messages. Imp (Say Hi?!) 09:29, November 14, 2014 (UTC)W

We cannot disable it since Wikia staff made it.IrishPatriot (talk) 12:45, November 14, 2014 (UTC)

No, we can do that. Like what Imp said, just go to personal preferences and let the who want to keep a Classic editor disable it personally. FirstStooge (talk) 14:55, November 14, 2014 (UTC)

I meant we can't remove it completely from the wiki (i didn't mean that we can't disable it personally). IrishPatriot (talk) 15:04, November 14, 2014 (UTC)

No Liker we can completely remove it from the wiki. We can remove it wiki wide. This thread was made to discuss whether or not we should. Mscoree (talk) 15:11, November 14, 2014 (UTC)

Why SHOULD we? Some of us like it, some don't, and it takes 10 seconds to change! If you don't like it, go to preferences and click a button, dammit!

23:36, November 14, 2014 (UTC)

I believe at this point the discussion is no longer about banning it outright, as a few users have voiced their opinion in keeping it. I was just trying to explain to Liker that it is possible to remove it hypothetically. Mscoree (talk) 23:43, November 14, 2014 (UTC)

I personally use Source mode for anything except Copy-Paste stuff.

Only use source mode myself.

As for removing it, Ms, no such option. It is here to stay whether we like it or not.

Lordganon (talk) 12:06, November 16, 2014 (UTC)



There is the step by step guide for those confused on how to change editing preferences. Imp (Say Hi?!) 21:32, November 16, 2014 (UTC)

Notice
Many people are drawing similarities between the names of Ratc333 and Ratcolor. They are not the same person. I've talked with Ratcolor. I'd go as far as saying they're opposites of each other. Going to clear this up before this becomes an issue. Thank you.

Crim de la Crème 23:09, November 16, 2014 (UTC)

Woah. I was just thinking the same thing. I was like "could Ratc not have chosen a more imaginative title that Ratcolor?" Imp (Say Hi?!) 23:58, November 16, 2014 (UTC)

Yeah, I was initially suspicious too, but I love this guy.

Which, note, is almost certainly NOT a ringing endorsement, but still.

00:38, November 18, 2014 (UTC)

End PM3, Vandalization, and more
So, a few users on chat (Tr0llis, Toby2, Harvenard2, Mscoree and RexImperio) have started propagating the idea of forcibly ending pm3. This wouldn't have been such a problem, had one of them (Harvenard2), vandalized the pm3 main page.

Moreover, a member of the TSPTF (Toby2) seems to have indirectly allowed this to happen, as seen below.

Finally, Feudalplague is constantly portrayed as some sort of tyrant who does whatever he wants. Now, I'm not saying he doesn't have some flaws, but this is taking it too far. Sky Green 24 (P, Q ) 14:52, November 30, 2014 (UTC)

Hopefully someone sees these before they are deleted. Guns is now really mad at us and cursing us off in all caps. It's all a manner of time before I'm banned from chat, and if what Guns is saying is true, before he "pays off" an admin to ban us. I don't even know what to think anymore. Tr0llis (talk) 16:07, November 30, 2014 (UTC)

Maybe Guns has a victim complex or something, but now he's saying us non admins, the people he's supposed to be moderating, are out of control and insulting to him, even though the evidence seems to say otherwise. "Guns, if we had done what you said, you would have prevented us from getting banned?" - Mscoree; they are having a conversation now about buying their innocence. Is this really how it's supposed to work? Tr0llis (talk) 16:13, November 30, 2014 (UTC)

12/10 logic. I state that I'm going out of my way to stop you from being banned, and you assume you're going to be chatbanned. I state that I'm defending you and the other people who did this on the TSPTF talkpage- true, BTW- and you assume that means I'm "paying off" other TSPTF members. I state that I'm one of the few TSPTF members here who DOESN'T actively dislike you and Ms, and you decide that means that I'm corrupt.

I mean, I can't even comprehend the illogicity of those statements.

16:11, November 30, 2014 (UTC)

Great, somehow this has spiraled out of control into a completely different issue. Lordganon or one of the bias admins Guns describes are going to get one look at this and ban ms for all eternately most likely, probably Tr0llis too. Simply put he tried to uncover something far beyond him, and it's going to come off all wrong. Another thing, Guns came on chat today and immediately banned me, not sure why. Wouldn't be surprised if the people on this page were banned by Guns, "accidentally" in some cases. Harvenard2 (talk) 16:20, November 30, 2014 (UTC)

This is some bullshit right here. VonGlusenburg (talk to Von!) 16:53, November 30, 2014 (UTC)

First I will give a full detailed explanation of what happened

Well here is how this started. Early in the morning i was on chat when NK suggested that PM3 be rebooted. we liked the idea, but both left so originally none of it  was taken too seriously. In the morning, i come on to find blocky and ms arguing over westphalia (i even had to kick blocky once for repeated insults hurled at the user). Here is where I resuggested the reboot. Many people were tired of the apparent mod bias (mostly those who they deemed undesirable, which were Ms and his allies). In order to enact this Ms stated we should change our avatars in a silent protest. We did, to enact a little humor and give our point across. Now at this time (before Windows eight updated and i lost all my work >:(. ) You can see my first post in the picture above. I meant to say "das good" in respoince to my accidental descaling of the picture, which i fixed. When he mentioned the banner, i said "I am not allowed to allow what those deem vandalism" (although since crim did it before i was hesitant to do anything) I mentioned johnston's tennessee because i was working on it, as well as other wiki and non wiki stuff, so i was kind of busy. Hoping guns wasnt away (because his name didnt say away under it) I went to do just that. I come back realizing that people had considered it vandalism and guns WAS away., so i rollbacked the page. Yes i know i did wrong, a lot, by even taking part in this, and i probably should have been more specific, but apart from the PM3 mods seeing it vandalism i dont see the problem here. I also should have known that it was vandalism, that i take full responsibility for.

As for the Fed issue. '''If you are going to compare someone to ISIS, do it in your head, at least until Mscoree and Tr0llis start killing Shias and Stoning gays. Seriously that was way too low a blow. '''Unfortunately it has come to a lot of our attention that not just in PM3, but the whole wiki, is biased towards some users. And seeing how everything you say will be copyedited and posted on a talk page for a kangaroo court, i shall say no more.

Thank you Toby2: THEY CALL ME Mr. Awesome!!!

Its funny people think Ms is going to be banned, when he isn't even on my radar for people I may potentially ban because of all the shit which has happened over the last month. Harv push his luck, lets hope one month gives him time to think. If anyone feels this needs to be extended in the TSPTF, be my guest.

You do realise Guns was trying to help you correct? Talk about burning an olive branch.

I did expect more from Toby however. And the others, this is your last warning. I don't want to know what happened, because I have seen all I need to. I just do not want any more discussion on here on this topic. Imp (Say Hi?!) 19:10, November 30, 2014 (UTC)

Goddammit Imp, I had all these words I was going to write and then you write this.

19:12, November 30, 2014 (UTC)

Soz man, go post them up anyway. Would appreciate some backup. Imp (Say Hi?!) 19:15, November 30, 2014 (UTC)

Isn't a month kind of extreme? I mean we've give anonymous trolls who spam multiple pages with curse words one to two weeks on occasion. Going off what Imp said, the punishment is one month simply because "no one would object" and because "he's annoying". Basically because people are mad at Harv, rather than give him the punishment for the crime, they might as well give him a month. In my opinion that's not really fair, it brings in your personal bias/opinions on Harv. At the same time all he did was post a single image, honestly just delete it. Tr0llis (talk) 19:31, November 30, 2014 (UTC)

It's still vandalism. Anyway, it's hard to take any screenshots of chat at face value because you can't tell if they've been taken out of context or altered or whatever. Also, Guns was most definitely offering to vouch for you but apparently you thought it was a trap.

19:42, November 30, 2014 (UTC)

It's not that we thought it was a trap, it's the fact he was willing to sell his testimony basically. Regardless Imp is promising that there will be consequences for Guns, which is slightly relieving. Tr0llis (talk) 19:49, November 30, 2014 (UTC)

Wow. Way to have another pointless argument-of-the-week. Literally nothing was accomplished from this giant wall-of-text on the TSPTF talk. Personally, I think we should implement stricter rules for when chat mods should kick/ban, as it seems that either a chat mod is doing too little or too much when these arguments come up. —Bfoxius (talk)

"Sell" my testimony for what, exactly? I asked one thing of you, and that's that you stop arguing with me when I said you shouldn't be banned!

Hah, funny. If there are any consequences beyond him buying me a drink (figuratively), I'm going to laugh at the absurdity of this wiki.

Harvey, you were banned for vandalizing the PM3 page.

21:13, November 30, 2014 (UTC)

I'd say concerning how its all built up over this last month a ban for a month is warranted. The annoyomus trolls get those bans because they are looking for somewhere to attach themselves to troll, if you stright-away show you won't put up with that crap and ban them, then they quickly lose interest. The bigger problem is the trolls which get latched onto the Wiki and develop a personal grudge (e.g. the whole Owen saga). They will have some friends which voch for them and they have contributed stuff, so ultimately mods feel bad about removing people who have contributed to the wiki in a postitive way. However when the treshold for a user becomes more bad contributions than good, well then its time to say no thanks and ban them to stop more bad contributions. Obviously though people will seem to be biased because they see more good contributions or bad contributions to the Wiki. I see more bad contributions from the people involved here so I say ban them. Once the majority of mods feel this way as well, then a ban will happen. Hopefully then the person improves and stops being bad. If they keep up the bad then they are banned again because then it seems they developed a grudge or something.

But when users are repeatedly banned and show no sign of correcting their behaviour, then I must just say they are neither use nor ornament. Why bother giving them the time of day to try and reason with them. They are more trouble than they are worth. Whatever happened to three strikes? Thank you for blocking Harv for a month Imp. I'd make it a year if he comes back and continues his bullshit. If you could now just deal out some more bans to people so we don't have to keep having one of these big clusterfuck arguments about a map game that'd be great.

The ISIS thing was low, but obviously 1 man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter. This video explains this difference of viewpoints very well. But yeah I think its safe to say ISIS are not fighters for freedom, rather freedom to impose a horrible ideology.... VonGlusenburg (talk to Von!) 03:41, December 1, 2014 (UTC)

Minor Vandalism
Apparently this person has been vandalising articles, probably not knowing the rules of proper edict. Just decided to bring it to the attention to the TSPTF to deal with this and to disipline correctly. Saturn (Talk/Blog) 17:13, December 4, 2014 (UTC)

That anonymous IP was already blocked twice by LG and Kogasa. Only way to discipline that person is by blocking it for more longer time. FirstStooge (talk) 01:42, December 5, 2014 (UTC)

Gave him a three month block. He really is going to do no good. Hopefully gets the idea and stops visiting us. Imp (Say Hi?!) 10:19, December 5, 2014 (UTC)

Imperial Machines
Some commotion in chat came up about this timeline Imperial Machines and whether it was a derivative work or not. It does have a lot of references to Wreck-it-Ralph, but I figured I would ask the Brass for their thoughts on the matter, as in my opinion it seems to be in a gray area in that regard.

Thanks,

"This is not your grave  but you are welcome in it. " 18:16, December 5, 2014 (UTC)

"Gray" is a good word for this one. This is about as close as one can get to derivative, in my opinion, and not get it deleted. Lordganon (talk) 12:52, December 6, 2014 (UTC)

Upvoteanthology
I have suspended Upvoteanthology for three days. This is because he uploaded a clearly inappropriate file for the purpose of harassing another user (TechnicallyIAmSean). I have removed the file and the comments. -- 05:13, December 7, 2014 (UTC)

Greatly disappointing, coming from Upvote. Too bad. 05:38, December 7, 2014 (UTC)

Wow wow wow calm down. I get that it may seem as harrassing, but I request you unban him. It was a joke, and it has a seperate context. I was not offended. I actually laughed about it a lot. Tech (talk)

^ i also believe it was a joke. IrishPatriot (talk) 11:29, December 7, 2014 (UTC)

When I saw the image I too was under the impression it was a joke. Mscoree (talk) 13:50, December 7, 2014 (UTC)

It was just a joke, it was Upvotes Secret Santa gift for Tech, resembling what happened in the latest ATWar game beetween them. Though I do admit that the image might be a bit inappropriate for the wiki, I think you should Unban him due to this misunderstanding. Saturn (Talk/Blog) 15:08, December 7, 2014 (UTC)

As they all said, please have a TSPTF member unban him. Tech (talk) 15:56, December 7, 2014 (UTC)

Technically, regardless of whether it was offensive or not, it was inappropriate, which is against Wiki rules. That's the cause of the ban, so he'll be back when the ban is over. It's just three days. Cour *talk* 16:06, December 7, 2014 (UTC)


 * Couldn't have explained it better, Courageous. Context or not, Upvote's "gift" was poor judgement at best and still not tolerated. His suspension will remain in place. -- 19:09, December 7, 2014 (UTC)

Hello, everyone. My ban has now expired, and I would like to say that I believe that although it was meant as a joke, you guys did the right thing. This wiki is simply not a place for things that I did, and I broke the rules. I did not try to harrass him, as Sean has previously said, but I am still regretting my decisions. Upvoteanthology ( Talk | Sandbox ) 20:42, December 10, 2014 (UTC)

Sign-ups Issue
So, if you click on the link, you might notice that there's something wrong with the sign-ups section of PM3 (or it might just be me, but that'd be even weirder). Sky Green 24 (P, Q ) 14:18, December 8, 2014 (UTC)

This belongs on the PM3 talkpage, I think, not here.

00:58, December 10, 2014 (UTC)

But you see, the issue isn't that it's outdated, the issue is that it somehow glitches when I click on that section. I checked it in source mode, but I didn't see anything wrong with it there. Sky Green <font color="531F72">24 (<font color="A00000">P, Q ) 10:21, December 10, 2014 (UTC)

Yeah, still belongs on the PM3 talkpage, imo.

Wikia App
Please see this message left on my talk page. I think I am the only admin who got it. Looks like AltHistory is getting an app. Mitro (talk) 18:41, December 10, 2014 (UTC)

What is the process of making this app? Is it actually going to happen? <font color="Green">Upvoteanthology ( Talk | Sandbox )

Wow! This is really quite neat. I think its kind of ironic that, just a couple of months ago, we were discussing whether or not we could have better mobile interface, and then *BAM* Wikia comes and gives us the opportunity to do so. I just wonder: what do we, as a community, or the TSPTF have to do to get this and make it happen? 07:03, December 11, 2014 (UTC)

Minor Vandal
This user recently vandalized the homepage to 83DD. Just so you mods are aware. 15:55, December 11, 2014 (UTC)

Kingtrevor-Pittsburgh
He confessed, the picture says enough. And Edge also has proof Tech (talk)

I already banned him from chat, so the rest is up to the admins. I can't really say anything more. He could have solved all of this if he simply apologized, but he had to go on and run his mouth after he was caught. Vivaporius: "I don't need a slogan" 21:23, December 11, 2014 (UTC)

You lied to him, and used it agianst him, if the cops did that they SHOULD be in jail, but with all this crap in 'Merica you probley woundn't. Bottom line you lied to him to trick so he should serve his old ban. <font color=Purple face="Algerian">OCT MARIUS, HAIL HIM

Oct, the myth that police officers can't arrest you if they promise they aren't a police officer, or cannot arrest you for telling some sort of other lie in order to catch you, is a myth. Mscoree (talk) 21:49, December 11, 2014 (UTC)

Actually, entrapment is a defence you can clearly use in many nations around the world against criminal liability, but only to reduce a sentence, and only if the criminal action you participated in was induced by the police's lie. Kingtrevor/Pittsburgh didn't have to be induced to come back and create a new account; he did on his own accord, and therefore wouldn't be able to use entrapment as a defence in court. Besides he's nothing more than a troll and sockpuppeter. <font color="#00008B">RichMill | Talk 00:51, December 12, 2014 (UTC)

^ Exactly. If an undercover police officer goes to your house and talks you into buying some drugs, say, when you wouldn't have normally, then that's entrapment. If you go to the undercover cop, on the other hand, you can still go down for possession.

As Rich said, Trevor already committed the crime.

Not, of course, that entrapment applies to the wiki anyway.

01:48, December 12, 2014 (UTC)

Correct. You admit something like this, and you're gone. Don't care about the context. Lordganon (talk) 09:57, December 13, 2014 (UTC)

What of this new guy, Amekea? Could he be trevor? Frankly, I'm not sure. I am just wary of all newbies thanks to trevor. Although, I did make a sockpuppet myself once. It was to get revenge on a wiki that I despise.......Spartian300 (talk) 15:42, December 16, 2014 (UTC)

Please don't report every random new person, unless you actually have evidence of sockpuppeting. Mscoree (talk) 15:43, December 16, 2014 (UTC)

I have a strong distrust of newbies thanks to trevor. My trust must be earned. Spartian300 (talk) 16:36, December 16, 2014 (UTC)

Then go earn your trust elsewhere. If we were half as suspicious as you are, we'd have permabanned you the second you said "sockpuppet".

Watch out for my sockpuppet, though. I have trolling brothers, and don't trust them. If you see Mur-Dorr., then ban him. That is my sockpuppet. It will most likely be one of them. Spartian300 (talk) 10:44, December 18, 2014 (UTC)

Really, Pittsburgh is Kingtrevor? Since when he was banned from chat, I asking you one of admins to ban this Kingtrevor's sockpuppet Pittsburgh45 because is already on the title Kingtrevor-Pittsburgh.

...

Eric, he's already banned... Saturn120 (Talk/Blog) 12:05, December 18, 2014 (UTC)

A) Shut up about your sockpuppet.

B) If your "brothers" DO find your sockpuppet and vandalize, you're getting banned too.

Vandal
I found this vandal trying to change an art lice, and since no admins were on chat atm, I think it is appropriate to bring it up here. Saturn120 (Talk/Blog) 16:03, December 20, 2014 (UTC)

Heh. Thanks for the note, though I do go through the edit list each day, as an fyi. =) Lordganon (talk) 12:29, December 21, 2014 (UTC)

Eric4e
So Eric is an infamous user on chat, mostly for his poor english and obssesion with Sugar Rush, Wreck it Ralph, Japan, and Sweden. Recently, JoshtheRoman started a map game, Novum Saeculum (Map Game). In this game, Eric attempted to pick Japan, though he was told he could not. The Nation was then taken by Sean. When Eric got on chat, he freaked out (screen shots will be provided), telling Sean to die and spamming all caps, as well as threatening to send pictures to Sean that Sean didn't want to see. he has had a histroy of being a brat (to be frank about it) and I fugred that the TSTPF should act on this. Sean has screenshots for this post.

Screenshots right here:

'''Please don't block me! Thanks! I really a good user now. I feeling so happy now.'''

This isn't the first time Eric has done something like this. In Alternate Nations 3 he attempted to "steal the game", in the sense that he proclaimed himself the owner and removed the actual owner. He continued to misbehave once he was banned from the game. Tr0llis (talk) 20:29, December 21, 2014 (UTC)

Yea, Eric basically killed Alternate Nations 3. I (the head mod) was on vacation for a few weeks and when I returned, the game was in shambles because of him.

—Bfoxius (talk)

Given his actions on the wiki as a whole, I have banned him for a day from the wiki and from chat for three days. If other members of the TSPTF feel that is too little, go ahead and lengthen it within reason.

Stripping
Right. Things are starting to get to a point where I feel this has to be done. Although the TSPTF usually handles things pretty well, I believe that some users are crossing the limit. One of these in Guns. Now Guns is a good member of the wiki, but he tends to forget limits. Unfortunately this is reaching a critical point and I believe something has to be done. As such, I am giving Guns a warning to improve his behaviour in arguments, which I understand can get pretty heated, and to keep calm. Otherwise I would have to look into talking to other TSPTF members on stripping his constabulary.

Nothing is happening now but I believe a warning to Guns was necessary. Imp (Say Hi?!) 13:44, December 23, 2014 (UTC)

Alternate History Wiki YouTube Channel
Well, gentlemen. I have been seeing things all over the Wiki und I have decided to propose the creation of a YouTube channel for the Alternate History Wiki, my good sirs.

How would any of this work? How would this be run? Who owns it? Etc. Also if you want to make a youtube channel no one is stopping you. Mscoree (talk) 02:35, December 24, 2014 (UTC)

Tbh i think someone with youtube administration experience (i volunteer as i used to run my friends youtube for his old weekly show). Along with this i also think its someone that could organize and realize whats nonsensical BS and whats appropriate to put up there. A Propoganda video against a user would be unacceptable while a Timelapse of someones Timeline or a specific event for a timeline (which would have its own category) would be acceptable

In order to prevent ridiculousness with it i do suggest that (if im given admin over the youtube channel) that the password also be given to Someone like Crim, Imp, or some other active TSPTF member to prevent it from straying off the actual purpose. Which i beleive would be to showcase our community as something productive with the communal ability to write alternative histories (which is essentially what map games are.. competitive timeline making with an algorithm to determine various outcomes all within the same timeline) However regardless of any of the bad stuff that could be done i do agree that the Youtube account could very well be used to advertise us to potential timeline makers and good potential wiki users.

Ace is on the right track i think and i think we have been a little lacking in terms of new users coming around recently and have been relatively unwelcoming at times due to that whole ratc thing. Regardless this just seems like a better way to advertise our wiki to people that would generally enjoy looking up alternate histories and map timelapses among other things.

I also do propose that some sort of trailer for Doomsday be made, i have decent video making skills so if anything i could churn one or two out to showcase one of out best timelines. This would more than not be able to show what the wiki is also about rather than just throwing up a bunch of map game timelapses.

I can help out, as I used to run a few Youtube channels. I also have experience making videos, so I can hopefully create some content. I think it would be beneficial to have some sort of content judging, where a group of people agree that a content creator can go ahead with some sort of series or video. Overall I think this is a good idea, I just wasn't sure on the specifics at first. Mscoree (talk) 02:50, December 24, 2014 (UTC)

Tbh MS alot of the higher ups wont go for it if you were voted to run it.. no offense but your not on good terms with some of the people we need to convince. I dont doubt your editing ability but in terms of Content... i wont be putting up anything thats ridiculously awful looking to the channel. Id much more enjoy it being trailers for timelines if the appropriate footage could be found, and maybe a few of our top map game timelapses. Maybe a solid timelapse of timelines as well such as DD but the content being put up cant be garbage i recognize that

What would even be on the channel? Pictures with voiceover, Like those alternate history videos on YouTube? I don't quite see the purpose, although the concept seems interesting enough.

03:16, December 24, 2014 (UTC)

From what im proposing, if you can find suitable enough footage and its approved throught the correct person (aka the admin of the youtube acct) then i was thinking trailers or things promoting your Timeline. Like doomsday could easily just be mass effect music set to nuclear explosion and world war three clips (since those are aplenty to be found downloaded and repurposed into something).

Along with this a timelapse of your specific timeline showing change over history giving a short summary of events (if produced well enough) could make its way up there. If we find someone with a good enough kind of announcer or production value voice a voiceover could in fact be done. Eiplec earlier made a timelapse of the whole first century of PMIII rather sucessfully (if not a rudimentary test though) and hes begun work on other centuries at my direction for music and how to go about it.

To be honest we need to be careful about what we post on there and how we would decide to present ourselves if we went through with it. We need to be putting quality content on this sort of thing. Something that we can watch as a nonmember of the wikia and come away with the impression that we are in fact an open community that caters to quality content. There are plenty of alternate history kind of people out there and im sure having high quality videos, trailers, timelapses, voiceovers, would be an extremely good way to promote ourselves and probably gain some relatively high quality membership, and if not high quality at least people that can eventually acheive and reach a high quality contributor status.

Tl;DR: The Youtube channel is a place to promote the wikia, put up quality content of any sort relating to our Timelines, Games, among other things, and all and all showcase our wikia to the kind of people that would be searching Youtube for those kinds of videos. This would in turn attract a higher quality of membership or at least a new membership that could eventually reach high quality contribution status.

I have several Youtube Channels and have some experience with video making. I was just thinking that all members or administrators would acknoledge who made a video with a splash of their name during the video. (ex, X is the admin, Y makes a video TL, X uploads Y's video with Y's name as the video maker.) So I was thinking that no credit would be given to one sole admin as we are a collective group and also diverse in our areas of history.

Aternix !?  06:19, December 24, 2014 (UTC)

For starters, you're mistaken if you think there'd be a vote there. Nor do you have the authority to call for one.

Past that, I fail to see a point or need for this.

Lordganon (talk) 07:50, December 24, 2014 (UTC)

Thanks, but i don't find this channel under name Alternate History Wiki. Can we make a new channel on Youtube now?

How do you not see the promotial ability of a youtube channel.... considering the kinds of creative people, not to mention how specific searching  for alternate history is.. it would probably draw some newly needed higher quality membership which considering the absolute trolls and non contributing users we usually get would be a welcome change. As for his authority to call a vote.. it definitely doesnt seem like an authority... it was to gauge how many people would actually like to see an active youtube channel..

Nothing stops ANY of us from just going and making a fan channel that links to here. If managed correctly i see no reason for this not to happen as an offsite presence of the wikia for advertising our respective works in a relatively decent environment that could attract new membership. How is that a bad thing. Worst comes to worst it doesnt get used and falls into obscurity and no harm done..

Lordganon was probably talking about how you don't have the authority to call a TSPTF vote. If you want to poll people just make a blog post or something. "Nothing stops ANY of us from just going and making a fan channel that links to here", no kidding, which is why I told you to do just that. Mscoree (talk) 14:03, December 24, 2014 (UTC)

Not my vote... Ace made the vote and asked me to support the idea of a althist wiki youtube. And since i dont see anything too bad coming from this in general no reason to try and at least getting it made the official channel of the wikia if he still wants to go through with it.

I could easily see this working as a simple way to promote our wiki. We could make short videos explaining the core concepts of alternative history, starting with a "What is Alternative History?" which leads into "What is the Alternative History Wiki?". This would be an easy way to get more people to come here and contribute. After that, we could do more specific videos such as "What are Timelines?", "What are Map Games?", and "Alternative History Lingo". If we want to continue from there, we could make videos highlighting the best and brightest timelines this wiki has to offer such as 1983: Doomsday and Superpowers.

Any thoughts?

—Bfoxius (talk)

I think that is generally the idea. Mscoree (talk) 19:43, December 24, 2014 (UTC)

As much as I like the idea of AltHistory Wiki YouTube channel, this entire vote/discussion is not a TSPTF issue. The admins are just volunteers who help maintain the wiki. You don't need their approval and they can't stop you from doing anything outside the wiki. If you want an AltHistory Wiki YouTube channel, go create it. If you want a place to find collaborators and spitball ideas, then create a blog or even a new page on the wiki to be the portal for the project. Trying to get the TSPTF's "approval" is pointless and unnecessary.

That all being said, please let me know when the channel is up and running as I would love to cover it for my blog. Mitro (talk) 19:55, December 24, 2014 (UTC)

Yea, Mitro is right. I probably will put this together after Christmas if possible and go ahead with my plan. If anyone wants to help me with putting the videos together or voice work, please tell me.

—Bfoxius (talk)

I also have experience with photoshop and movie editors, and might be able to edit the videos. I wouldn't be able to voice act, though (my microphone is terrible).

Okay, I will probably get the channel up tomorrow, followed by the first video. It'll be a basic outline on alternative history in general, with a 1983: Doomsday hook and the video eventually points toward this site. After that, I'll do one on the wiki itself, followed by more specific ones about timelines, map games, and other activities. Videos on lingo, "how to edit", and general writing tips are planned afterwards. After that, I'll do videos on great timelines such as 83DD and maybe one or two on specific map games.

Before I get the ball rolling, however, I will probably need someone with experience on YouTube to help me out and fill in for me when I don't have time, as until mid-February, I have a busy schedule. I also think an animated intro and/or outro would be cool, as would custom music, though that kind of is pushing it.

Stolen Image
http://www.reddit.com/r/imaginarymaps/comments/2pvabm/map_of_what_the_world_might_look_in_1920_like_if/

This post above steals the image from the TL Easternized World. I was under the impression that the stuff on this wiki was intellectual property, meaning that it can't be taken without permission. Figured the TSPTF should be made aware at the very least. Will probably contact the mods of that subreddit and see what they say about it. Original For Comparison.    Edge , Champion  of Shattered Stars and Stripes    Hit me up!  04:30, December 26, 2014 (UTC)

Yeah, I found it earlier today and told Edge. Even though you guys can't really do anything about it, you guys should at least be aware.

>.>;

Legally all it (might) need is to be sourced - and that one post on that reddit thread does that.

Wikia is free use.

Really, the only problem there is that it says "original content" on it, but the thread-starer is probably telling the truth about the mods.

 * As an attorney I can say LG is right. There is no stealing here and the redditor didn't claim to be the author. This was an overreaction to something that happens all the time on social media. Mitro (talk) 19:28, December 27, 2014 (UTC)

Plagiarism?
Okay, so a new timeline, A Wonderful World, seems to be plagiarism. I mean, some of it is okay, but the rest copies from another timeline, Alternity. I feel something should be done. I haven't done much, but you should see for youself. The timeline was appearently inspired by others, like New Union, but overall, it can be considered a direct copy of them. Spartian300 (talk) 00:05, December 29, 2014 (UTC)

You do realize that there are several differences between the two timelines, right? Sure, sometimes stories and timelines that are 'inspired' by other people's work are indeed direct copies, but despite the similarities between Alternity and A Wonderful World, there are still the striking differences between in the timelines; including different events leading to different borders, different people (or the same people, just at differing points in time) being elected or put into power, several new events being added to A Wonderful World's timeline, as well as a ton of other factors that ensure that the Alternity and New Union remain simply inspirations, also in spite of their aesthetic similarities. The author even says on the timeline's portal page that if NuclearVacuum or Airwolf_Fanatic94 have any problems with the timeline, they should let him know.

Attempted account hacking
As of about 10 minutes ago i got an alert on my account that someone was trying to do a request new password/forgotten password for my wikia account. i have since changed my password again. I would just like to post this as a warning for other users. If you get the email about a temporary password change your password immediately and make sure you email is secure as well.

Hope nobody else is having issues with this and i really hope it wasnt anyone from this wikia.. i would rather this not be a case of someone trying to use my own account to get me banned.

Okay, now I'm paranoid. There could be a hacker on this wiki, but we don't know who? *shivers* I will start taking precautions. On a side note, I just had a thought. If they guy requested a password change, then this raises questions: how would he have changed the password? Unless he has a system that will follow the email. Is that possible? Spartian300 (talk) 12:22, December 29, 2014 (UTC)

I suspect someone from TFOE hacked, as they for an unknown reason dislike this wiki. Whoever the hacker is, i am or someone shall order an global block for the hacker, if we find out who he is. QuebecanCanada (talk) 12:49, December 29, 2014 (UTC)

Wow such hacking...literally someone just clicked "forgot my password", not on their account. Good to see all the steps of hysteria are shining through though; paranoia, accusations, etc.

@Spar "how would he have changed the password?" He wouldn't have...because this isn't an actual hacker, it was someone who clicked a button on the login screen. Tr0llis (talk) 13:41, December 29, 2014 (UTC)

Considering the Email password was legitimate changed on me and i had to go through recovery within 10 minutes of the password notification id say this is a little more than a simple "he clicked forgot password"

In and of itself, this problem raises a question I don't like: could it be one of the banned has become a hacker? Maybe someone from the past, someone who has a vendetta against this wiki, is now a hacker. We are looking at someone who uses an email tracker. That is bad. Spartian300 (talk) 23:59, December 29, 2014 (UTC)

To test a few theories about this, I went through password recovery myself with wikia. And to get this notifaction, all you need is someones user name. It is very unlikely that, given the fact that Wikia is not something people pay to use/ attach a credit card too, someone would try to hack you wikia account. Your email is different. Unless I am misuderstanding, 2 seperate events are being connected. A changed email password and a wikia "hack". To use myself for an example, PSN is connected to my email, which has some money attached to it. Someone is more likely to hack my email to get whatever money they can grab than they are to hack my wikia account, where the most damage they could do in the long term is get me banned from this wiki or make me lose admin on another wiki. So the chances of this being a expert level hacker is slime to none. Adressing Spar, all it takes to request a change is the user name. I could take LGs user name and request a change. Short of a message, nothing would happen to his account. Liker/Quebec, it isn't. The people of the TFOE acctually seem to be indifernet or uncaring towards what happened and this wiki. Many come over from that wiki and hang out of chat. They also worked it into the "Canon" of their wiki and it is a part of their "society".If they really wanted to get us back, they would go to Wikia and file reports against the users or this wiki.

The most resonable claim here is that someone did this to fuck with Feud.He's a pretty well known and active user who has a group of people who dislike him on this wiki. If it was a hacker, they are a shitty one if some websites password recovery system is all it took to stop them in their tracks.

I agree. I was thinking, however, that if they could trace an email, they could get to Feud's email. Like, they used it to find him. But yes, we could be looking at a coincidence. However, it seems that I sent an email to my mom. Which I did not. Something about "mike v". I think I've been hacked. Gonna change my password. Spartian300 (talk) 12:49, December 30, 2014 (UTC)

Finding an email and getting INTO an email are different things, Spartain. If this is a hacker he isn't very good. Nothing to worry about it seems. Монгол орда (talk)

Spar this 'I'm not gonna take any risks' stuff is getting really annoying now. You did it earlier with the whole Kingtrevor-Pittsburgh thing. Just because someone tried to fuck with Feud(not literally) doesnt mean there is this giant hacking network which is after all the users on Wikia. You're way too suspicisious, while if the TSPTF were half as suspicious as you are you would have had a perma-ban some time ago Tech (talk) 14:41, December 30, 2014 (UTC)

Derivative Work
The Timeline Imperial Machines, made by Eric4e is indeed derivative, As http://althistory.wikia.com/wiki/Alternative_History:Conventions_in_use_in_this_wiki#Derivative_Works states "Derivative Work is not allowed on this Wiki, even if parts of a timeline (such as characters) are involved", as Imperial Machines has characters from the movie Wreck-it Ralph (search it on wikipedia) it is derivative and should be deleted. The TSPTF has ignored this issue for long time, there have been attempts to delete the timeline the TSPTF said it was not derivative, which is false, and thus should be deleted. QuebecanCanada (talk) 17:49, January 19, 2015 (UTC)

Oh for the love of.... this again? And I assume you will want us to delete any other timeline that mentions a fictional character as well, then? Sheesh.

It isn't. And if you read it, you'd notice that.

Simply put, if those characters were the timeline, or were "real" in it, we would have a problem. But they are not. Even in that atl world, they are fictional.

Lordganon (talk) 18:49, January 19, 2015 (UTC)

Are you doing this because you have a grudge against Eric? I know that many wikians do, and I hope that they'd stop it.

—Bfoxius (talk)

I'm not advocating the deletion of Eric's TL. But, don't the main Wreck it Ralph characters come to life in one of the major PoD's of his TL? "When the Swedes arrived, a large portal to Sugar Rush-world was discovered and many began to enter. Others sold gold treasures to Sweden and through these gains the country's economy glows. 'Then it was discovered this was a great world of candy and ice cream." '

<font color="Green">Upvoteanthology ( Talk | Sandbox )

Nope. Lordganon (talk) 17:04, January 20, 2015 (UTC)

I must say that the second PoD and the fanfic CoAs seem to imply to the reader that his ATL exists alongside, and interacts with, Disney's Wreck-It Ralph universe. I can't make optimal sense of his writing, though, and the incomplete timeline seems to elaborate on the fictitious nature of this crossover, so this probably belongs in the same gray area as some of Seiga's love letters to the Touhou Project. --NFSreloaded (talk) 19:05, January 20, 2015 (UTC)

Ah, so that's the meaning of "visual environment"... Not bad. --NFSreloaded (talk) 19:46, January 20, 2015 (UTC)

Uh. I am surprised the timeline has gone as far as it has. The idea of fictional characters being symbols of a nation is neat, but the fictional characters that make the most sense are people like King Arthur, Uncle Sam, A Russian Bear who wields a hammer and sickle, etc. Although, Eric did once spam me about Gloyd Orangeboar helping Ireland get independence.

That does really offend me, and not because of the orange order. Have you all seen what that guy looks like? Eric put a fictional character in charge of Ireland. At th least, Eoin O'Duffy would have beena better choice, and most of you know what about him. I am just offended at the thought ireland would be lead by a cartoon character.

No, he did not. And had you not been offended by the orange - can't really deny that one, I've seen some of the pro-Ireland stuff you've promoted on here - you'd have noticed it. The character is a semi-national emblem. Lordganon (talk) 18:59, January 21, 2015 (UTC)

And the whole "orange order" was actually meant as a joke. But considering what the orange stands for on the Irish flag, it is kinda iinappropriate to have it be Gloyd Orangeboar. Eric obvisously tried to use something Irish, but kinda failed, imo. Someone else woul do way better. Spartian300 (talk) 11:56, January 23, 2015 (UTC)

Here. I found some proof of what Eric did:

"At the start of the war, the Irish Republican Army (IRA) split into two opposing camps: a pro-treaty IRA and an anti-treaty IRA. The pro-Treaty IRA disbanded and joined the new Irish Army. But if United Kingdom has one of hardest countries ever known, Gloyd Orangeboar came to Ireland in 1908, later he joined Irish Republican Army during Irish War of Independence. Then, he talk with anti-treaty leader Éamon de Valera in order to becoming the ceannaire, leader of the Irish people. Gloyd returns to Ireland in 1922 with Sweden supported the anti-treaty forces, Swedish supplies of artillery, aircraft, machine-guns and ammunition boosted anti-treaty forces and finally, the Irish Civil War was over, ending with Anti-Treaty victory, abolished the Irish Free State and creation of Republic of Ireland"

See? I am telling the truth. He has made a fictional character as a leading figure in Irish history. What about Micheal Collins? He would be better. Spartian300 (talk) 12:02, January 23, 2015 (UTC)

Someone else would do way better

Not you timeline, so not your decision. Eric indeed put Gloyd Orangeboar in charge of Ireland. Which is acceptable actually. Gloyd is a normal name, and Orangeboar isn't that weird for a surname(trust me, I've seen worse). And it's obvious nothing will be done, because nothing has to be done. You can ask Eric politely to change it, but the TSPTF can't and won't do anything, LG has made that clear.

And excuse me, but did you just delete my post? Interesting. <font color="Navy">Hail Sean! (Tech can into talkpage?) 12:05, January 23, 2015 (UTC)

Gloyd Orangeboar is a character from Wreck-it Ralph, thus, derivative. QuebecanCanada (talk) 12:19, January 23, 2015 (UTC)

Doesn't have to. First of all, it's just a name. Second of all, as LG said, he is a sort of national emblem for Ireland. But it's not my decision of course. <font color="Navy">Hail Sean! (Tech can into talkpage?) 12:27, January 23, 2015 (UTC)

So? <font color="Navy">Hail Sean! (Tech can into talkpage?) 12:34, January 23, 2015 (UTC)

I swear, I did not delete the Tech's post. Might have by accident. Spartian300 (talk) 12:36, January 23, 2015 (UTC)

Tech, you can't just say that this is a different character, when it obviously is one and the same. And I am aware that in the dutch version, Gloyd is a girl. Are you confused? Spartian300 (talk) 12:47, January 23, 2015 (UTC)

Confused? No. I didn't even watch Wreck It Ralph at all. And let's just say this: There is the movie called Mr and Mrs Smith. One of the characters is called John Smith. This means I cannot call any character John Smith, because it was already a character in a movie. Do you see how stupid this claim is? It would be a really different story if he posted a picture of WIR Gloyd Orangeboar saying that that is a portrait of the IM Gloyd Orangeboar, that would be derivative. From what I understand, this isn't punishable. <font color="Navy">Hail Sean! (Tech can into talkpage?) 13:01, January 23, 2015 (UTC)

Alright, stop it.

It's not derivative fiction. It would be if it were a story in the Wreck it-Ralph timeline, or an alternate timeline of what happened in that movie. However, using references to fiction is perfectly allowed in this wiki. In fact, IMO it is better to have a fictional name for a leader.

Spartian, you're getting offended over a colour. You can't delete a timeline because you don't like it, or it 'offends' you. As LG said, it's frivolous at best.

And QC, please quit your weird vendetta against Eric. Fed (talk) 13:16, January 23, 2015 (UTC)

The evidence is there that Gloyd Orangeboar Is the same as the one from wreck it Ralph. Spartian300 (talk) 14:39, January 23, 2015 (UTC)

I'm with Fed and LG on this one. Simply referencing a fictional character does not constitute anything remotely delete-worthy. <font color="Green">Upvoteanthology ( Talk | Sandbox )

QC, it is a vendetta, I have seen it several times on chat. And Spar is quite literally only angry because of his Irish Super-Nationalism which makes him cringe everytime he sees the word orange. <font color="Navy">Hail Sean! (Tech can into talkpage?) 15:18, January 23, 2015 (UTC)

Sean, i actually like Eric's timeline, i just pointed out a suspicious thing, not everything is a hendetta, maybe soon editing will be called a vendetta, maybe soon logging in will be called a vendetta, maybe soon the Wiki wilm be called a vendetta?

Case closed, do not edit anymore, and delete this section. QuebecanCanada (talk) 15:38, January 23, 2015 (UTC)

Sean, stuff it. Spar, you are wrong, simply put.

QC, answer is "no." It's staying. Try to remove it again, and three days.

Fine.

Might as well permaban me. QuebecanCanada (talk) 19:20, January 23, 2015 (UTC)

LG, I don't mean to argue, but Eric is using a fictional character for that timeline. And I am not a super nationalist. I consider myself American, but my family has been very badly treated in the past by the Brits. I know that one of an relatives on my mothers side was killed for teaching Irish. His kids were then shipped off to four different continents. Those kids were twins. My grandmothera brother was shot by the Black and Tans because they thought he was IRA. (He was 11 when it happened, and was playing football). I dislike the IRA just as much as the Unionists. I ain't an Irish nationalist. Just..... Hard to forgive them over what they did to my family. Spartian300 (talk) 14:18, January 24, 2015 (UTC)

Spar, you are aware that this is a work of fiction based on another work of fiction that is based on several other works of fiction? I cannot understand why this bothers you as much as it does. If you're a Jew whose grandparents died in the Holocaust, that doesn't give you the right to go off on someone who makes an Axis victory timeline.

unjust chat ban
Okay, so Toby just banned from chat for insulting Tech, when it is well deserved due to his hypocrisy. He crossed out something he should not have, as I was following turns in Diversa Pars. You all can check. Ever since Upvote sided with me over Tech, he has been bitter, and did blatantly insult me. I would like to point out that Tech has not followed certain events in the game. I would like the ban lifted. Spartian300 (talk) 20:46, January 24, 2015 (UTC)

calling him an oaf,  a swine, and an hypocritical ass, as well as your normal antics, can  let you last 2 hours Toby2: THEY CALL ME Mr. Awesome!!!

''No. You came on, acted like an ass, and are now suprised that you got banned. This is Edge, He is a cool guy when he isn't too lazy to sign his real sig. Hit him up.''

I am pissed at tech for him being an arse. He did pretty much insult me in his turn. But I am right. He is being a hypocrite. Check. Spartian300 (talk) 20:55, January 24, 2015 (UTC)

You can't come on chat and go insult someone immediately and expect to get away with it. And also, i never directly insulted you. I did my duty as a mod in that game. <font color="Navy">Hail Sean! (Tech can into talkpage?) 20:56, January 24, 2015 (UTC)

So you admit to insulting me indirectly? Your lucky I know better than to flame you. But you are being a hypocrite. And since when are you a mod? You are a poor one if did not check the turns. Go ahead and check 1996. You will see. Spartian300 (talk) 20:58, January 24, 2015 (UTC)

Spar. you raged, you insulted, you were warned earlier in the day. you have been banned for two hours. grow up Toby2: THEY CALL ME Mr. Awesome!!!

I also haven't insulted you indirectly. I have at best insulted you when I got a Spar rage insult storm over me, but that was because you had been insulted me all the time. <font color="Navy">Hail Sean! (Tech can into talkpage?) 21:01, January 24, 2015 (UTC)

Spar, you flew off the handle. Deal with the consequences. Toby, good call.

Spar, you think he insulted you and you insult him, What logic is that?

Also,

Good call? He behaved worse then me. He is ignoring stuff in the game, and I get punished? He is just bitter that I won (surprisingly)Spartian300 (talk) 21:47, January 24, 2015 (UTC)

i am not ignoring stuff. And the game is unrelated to the TSPTF. You can't insult someone and get away with it. And you appear to not know what we are talking about. You didn't win anything. I didn't behave worse than you. <font color="Navy">Hail Sean! (Tech can into talkpage?) 21:51, January 24, 2015 (UTC)

I am a bit vague at times. And maybe I should not have insult end you. But you are ignoring part of my turn, and did OFFEND me.Spartian300 (talk) 21:58, January 24, 2015 (UTC)

Here's the thing, Spar. Sean's turn was implausible, as most other people deemed it. At first, I believed he was in the right, due to his events being defaultly more urgent than events 70 turns in the future. But, after complaints from other mods and users, people wanted the ASB parts of Sean's turn retconned. Sean took it very well, but you lorded it over him in your next turn. You've been causing more problems on the page than he is, and you know full well that you are on thin ice. He did not offend you, Spar, and I'd advise you to not start another shitstorm so soon. <font color="Green">Upvoteanthology ( Talk | Sandbox )

TFOE attack part 2, and more
ok so it should be common knowlede that Ace and quebec had again tried to attack the TFOE wiki. MP had banned Ace for 3 days wiki and 1 week chat. But it was beginning to surface that quebec had a major role in this attack.

Quebec denied it but the evidence overruled and i gave him a measly 3 day chat ban.

the first few strings of rants came to my talk page on this wiki



when i went over to the TFOE wiki to sort  things out and also help them with a troll who was making death threats, i recieved these



these 9although the chat ones were on another wiki, i will let others decide ) as well as the TFOE raid and blatantly lying about it, should warrant a ban, in my opinion

but i will let others decide Toby2: THEY CALL ME Mr. Awesome!!!

CorrosiveDragon:Hello. I want to mention my opinion here. I would like to say that the ban should remain the way it is, it should be extended or perma banned. etc. This is because Quebec wasn't really the one who reported the users. Quebec just rementioned it which lead to Ace doing whatever Ace did. However in our life as human beings, we do something without thinking it through and then the future consquences may make us a bit upset. Which is probably why Quebec requests for a perma ban. However, we make mistakes and learn from it; therefore Quebec shouldn't deserve any longer bans, I know Quebec may be upset right now, but the best way is to let Quebec calm down and hopefully Quebec would think about it in a more peacful way. Extending the ban or perma banning this user for what I think it's minor is not needed, it only encourages Quebec to remain more depressed about it (Viperia (talk) 18:35, January 27, 2015 (UTC))

I already confessed that I played a minor role in the report Ace made, first i gave him information and such but when the report was made i already regreted it and knew it would cause chaos and such, I knew i couldn't stop the report so i tried to lie and stay out (I know it was a stupid move and i am very sorry) but then i got chat banned, posted on Toby's talk page and got it extended to a week, i then told everyone i was not involved in the report, however, then i knew i had to confess, so i did, i think i should be given a month ban or higher, again, i am very, very sorry and i ask for forgiveness.QuebecanCanada (talk) 18:49, January 27, 2015 (UTC)

I did not know fully what they did, but I like to point out that when I came on chat a few days ago, QC was talking about reporting TFOE to Wikia Central. BUT, there is one thing here that Toby hides. Because when I came on(I sadly don't have screenshots of it), I saw that QC asked Toby to tell no one, and Toby agreed. This is probably unbelievable, as I have no screenshots. But from what I saw, Toby is also partially guilty about this. Although Ace was the one who did it, QC did help him and Toby ignored it even though he knew about it. <font color="Navy">Hail Sean! (Tech can into talkpage?) 18:51, January 27, 2015 (UTC)

Well that is true. QuebecanCanada (talk) 18:59, January 27, 2015 (UTC)

@quebec that is a blatant lie i did not extend it until after those three shots were taken

@tech yes indeed i knew and i regret not having done more to stop it other than just "dont do that". If i wanted to hide something i would have Toby2: THEY CALL ME Mr. Awesome!!!

Well toby my wording was weird so forgive me. QuebecanCanada (talk) 19:04, January 27, 2015 (UTC)

Agreed, Toby - blocked for three days.

Insults
http://althistory.wikia.com/wiki/User_talk:Ace009?diff=1125225&oldid=1123566

Some person(from TFOE) has insulted Ace on his talk page. Take a look. <font color="Navy">Hail Sean! (Tech can into talkpage?) 12:19, January 30, 2015 (UTC)

I can't be the only one here who feels we are looking at a war between ourselves and TFOE. That may not be the case, but truthfully, it looks that way. As the admins are trying to keep things under control, I think we should just wait till it all blows over. This message is for non-admins, of course, but those same users could start taking matters into their own hands. And we don't need that. I would advise we try to smooth things over with TFOE, and make sure no one steps out of line. Yes, I know that would apply to me, but I have no interest in "raiding". All I have interest in is what interests me. Spartian300 (talk) 13:11, January 30, 2015 (UTC)

Just saw what they did. I will contact admins on TFOE about it. Could someone take screenshots of it for the TFOE? Spartian300 (talk) 13:13, January 30, 2015 (UTC)

War? Spar, don't act like one of them. War between wikias is a childish and untrue concept. The fact remains: TFOE has nothing against our wiki in general. But they do think that Ace and QC are twats. They can come here if they want, but they should get banned if they start vandalizing and insulting. <font color="Navy">Hail Sean! (Tech can into talkpage?) 13:41, January 30, 2015 (UTC)

I did drop them a message asking them to not flood our wiki, just to be sure. <font color="Navy">Hail Sean! (Tech can into talkpage?) 13:56, January 30, 2015 (UTC)

I guess I did overreact, but I have alerted the admins on TFOE to what happened. Spartian300 (talk) 15:25, January 30, 2015 (UTC)

A Grim Reaping......
I have just found out something VERY troubling. It would seem that Ace, somehow, was able to disable wiki accounts on TFOE. While most of you should know about it, the reason I am bringing this to your attention is because of the TFOE response.

http://thefutureofeuropes.wikia.com/wiki/The_Grim_Reaping#comm-74483

We have a problem. A dire one at that. The users are taking what Ace did bitterly. They have made a template to remember what happened as well. If that isn't a sign of things to come, I don't know what is. We need to resolve this soon, before it gets serious. I will try to do so, and will update on how it is going. Spartian300 (talk) 13:23, January 30, 2015 (UTC)

Spar, there is no things to come. There is nothing to resolve. Ace was a dick against them, so they hate him. They have NOTHING against Althist. I have spoken to a few of them on chat and they don't hate Althist, they hate the invaders and QC and Ace. So please don't make this an issue when it shouldn't be. <font color="Navy">Hail Sean! (Tech can into talkpage?) 13:43, January 30, 2015 (UTC)

Ace didn't "Magic" these accounts into death. Wikia disabled them for being underage.We have known about this for a while, issue has been resolved. This is Edge, He is a cool guy when he isn't too lazy to sign his real sig. Hit him up. 14:50, January 30, 2015 (UTC)

I am so slow...... Spartian300 (talk) 15:05, January 30, 2015 (UTC)

On a side note, I was able to bring the insult on Ace's page to the attentions of the admins on TFOE. Spartian300 (talk) 15:23, January 30, 2015 (UTC)

For the record, the issue has already been handled. Ace was banned a while back for conducting wikia central business and interfering with the actions and policies of other wikias, something that he was previously warned not to do. He should be back in a few days. QC was also banned for doing more or less the planning behind it, but I don't know how long he was banned for. Either way, the issue is currently handled, and TFOE knows that it was handled.

An Apology, Followed by More Evidence
Well, gentlemen. This is the first time I have literally posted anything in a whole bloody week, but I believe I have evidence as to the Future of Europe's Wiki's ages of certain users, after I finally learned how to take a bloody screenshot. As a result, i finally will post these as evidence:

Do note: I am not entirely certain whether this is true or not, but I did not photoshop these, as I do not know how to.

Still, even after a formal apology I had done to them, it appears that we are going to expect a streak of new users here.

While I regret what they call "The Grim Reaping", I have some mixed feelings to know that some believed my move was justified. If this move justifies my attempts to attract Wikia Staff here, then I may be at least happy I managed to enforce law. Otherwise, I may regret this decision, and if so......forgive me.

Ace, the problem is that wikia central is responsible for rooting out people underage, not you. Render unto wikia's that which is wikia's. Otherwise, it's not our concern nor our problem, and we would rather much not be part of an interwikia dispute, because those tend to end poorly.

Precisely. We have no influence over other wiki-related matters. Imp (Say Hi?!) 00:51, February 2, 2015 (UTC)

More importantly, doing something like this can damage out standing among other wikis. I mean, how could they trust us? I follow a rule in life: NEVER blame the whole for the actions of the few. It applies continuetly, and has been proven to be true, again and again. But of course, some may feel that the whole wiki is responible, for some reason or other. (Law of averages says so.) I think that, as a sign of goodwill, we should make a "peace treaty", if you will, with TFOE. Symbolic, of course, but still, it would help patch things up. LG, what do you think? I also believe I handled the insult to Ace pretty well. Since I was able to bring it to the attention of the TFOE admins. Spartian300 (talk) 08:58, February 2, 2015 (UTC)

Spar, you always overexaggerate these things. We don't have to. First of all, TFOE's opinion of us is completely irrelevant. Second of all, they know Althist isn't responsible. So we should just end this topic and leave them be. <font color="Navy">Hail Sean! (Tech can into talkpage?)

I do not care what a user does on another wiki. If it has nothing to do with our wiki do not bring it up. It is irrelavent what other wikis this of us - we apparently have enough in-wiki problems to deal with. If wikia thinks we have done something bad then they will alert us. Otherwise please do not bring up other-wiki matters which do not involve us. Imp (Say Hi?!) 11:37, February 2, 2015 (UTC)

Not that I shouldn't really barge in here, but hasn't this has already been solved? Why are we rambling on about stuff that has already been solved? This discussion should be finished by now and closed and shut, imo. Saturn120 (Talk/Blog) 11:40, February 2, 2015 (UTC)


 * Spartian felt the need to make a comment. [[Image:1.png|23px]] Imp (Say Hi?!) 12:40, February 2, 2015 (UTC)

I am back from an well-deserved punishment.

Ace, why are you trying to do it again? I know it was wrong for me to suggest it, but why? Do you want more vandalizers to come from TFOE? The Relations between the two wikis are going on a path to good, why ruin them to start again? It is best to avoid contact with the two wikis til AH will be forgotten. Also, do not blame everything on Ace, i was the one who ignited the idea, therefore i deserved the punishment, but it would be better if i was not banned for 3 days, but 1 month, as i deserved a higher punishment, and maybe 5 years from the chat. As i said, it is better if both wikis avoid contact for a while, and like Imp said, this is not Community Central, meaning this 'report' is pointless as AH admins should not do anything about this.

Also, may i ask, what was LG doing on the chat?. QuebecanCanada (talk) 14:31, February 2, 2015 (UTC)

First thing, you've overreacting, as always.

I didn't do it because of a porn joke, I did it because you were attempting to ruin Mscoree's reputation with your vigilantism. The "issue" that came up is a serious one, and we don't really need you to go and play detective. MP and I talked about this, you got a two hour ban, merely as a warning that such behaviour is not welcome.

Bribridude130's Sockpuppeting
So NuclearVacuum blocked Bribridude130 for 2 weeks, recently a new user named Bribridude130 (2) joined and edited its first page in Alternative History Wiki. Bribridude130 (2) is completely simpler to user Bribridude130 (2), as you can see it says on Bribridude130 (2)'s user page: "My backup account since Bribridude130 is currently blocked." So can anyone fell free to permanently block either or both accounts upon reading this.

12:46, February 13, 2015 (UTC)


 * I don't know what's more disappointing, the fact that he thought a "backup account" was a good idea or that he literally just called his new account "2". Thank you for bringing this to my attention. I have permanently blocked his first account, and his 2.0 is up for a month. I also warned him that any additional accounts will result in a permanent block for any account he makes.

Okay, so as most of you know, there was an incident on chat where I made a general ass of myself. Sorry about that. I should have known better. I was bored, is all, and wanted something to do. I really am sorry. It actually wasn't fun. I feel like Drax after he contacted Rohan in Guardians of the Galaxy. Spartian300 (talk) 22:54, February 17, 2015 (UTC)

Mscoree Petition
On behalf of the people of the Alternate History Wiki and its associates, for the release of the user Mscoree, who was banned at the eighteenth hour and thirty-nine minutes on the 23 February, two thousand fifteen years in the year of our lord, to the Time Stream Protection Task Force, and its administration. We believe that the current state of evidence in regards to Mscoree’s crime, proves that he is not guilty of a crime warranting a six month ban, and call for a review of his case. His ban was motivated by a clear conflict of interest, a bias, and without any proper evidence or discussion for such a long ban.

This ban has its origins in the controversial decision to replace the player Harvenard2 from the Tartary in Principia Moderni III, and replace him with the user ScarletOutlaw. After some debating it was decided by the moderators, most notably Edge, that Harvenard2 was inactive, and could therefore be replaced. An edit war ensued between Harv and Scar, particularly on the Tartary page, and as a result the page was locked by Monster Pumpkin on 19 February. It was at this point, when he was fet up with arguing with both Harv and Scar, that Edge declared the next “Tartary-related edit” would result in a one month PM3 ban.

Mscoree has claimed that at the time he was not paying much attention to chat, except for a private message conversation with the user Tr0llis, which reads as follows:

Mscoree

Don't forget to update the family tree on your page

Tr0llis

I'll have Stephano II live for a while

Mscoree

Okay

Tr0llis

What year did Carolina von whatever die?

Mscoree

Not sure

Actually probably still alive

Tr0llis

Now I need to fix the family tree

aka get you too


 * too

Mscoree

lol

I need to update my own

Tr0llis

Mscoree

Speaking of family trees, did you see the Tartary?

Tr0llis

Lol

Mscoree

Brb the shitstorm ensues in chat

Didn't Harv post the year before?

Sorry, wrong chat

Tr0llis

ms plz

Also fix the Tartary family tree it's hurting me

Mscoree

Should I?

Tr0llis

Lol get banned by LG somehow because of it

Mscoree

Let's test that

Mscoree and Tr0llis were talking about family trees, which Mscoree is a noted creator of. In two different places, Mscoree is seen saying something out of place, the second and final spot being the last line. According to Tr0llis on chat, “after he replied ‘should I?’ there was a pause lasting almost two minutes. When he returned he said his last message in chat, before immediately saying it in private chat.” When viewed in context it is obvious that Mscoree said “Let’s test that” in the context of fixing a family tree.

According to snippets of the main chat log that we obtained, Mscoree said “Let’s test that” in the main chat at 2:09 UTC. If you examine the edit log at this time however, you can see that at 2:09 UTC Mscoree was in the middle of an edit, specifically on the PM3 page. Of course, the Tartary page, containing the family tree, was locked. According to Mscoree he saw the edit conflict currently going on in this page, and decided to fix the formatting on the page. It should also be noted that during this time Mscoree, and many others, were examining the PM3 archives to figure out who posted first. At 2:09 Mscoree made an edit (http://althistory.wikia.com/wiki/Principia_Moderni_III_(Map_Game)?diff=prev&oldid=1132127) for the purpose of fixing the page’s formatting, specifically an incorrect internal link and some spacing.

It was at this moment, after the edit had been made, that Mscoree, upon just now seeing Edge promising a ban, admitted casually that he had technically made a “Tartary related edit”. Mscoree was immediately banned from the map game for a month, after Monster Pumpkin reported that Mscoree had indeed made some sort of edit. Although the validity of this edit was not checked, Mscoree was banned none the less by Edge.

For the next few days Mscoree continued to post anyway, perhaps not believing this “trollish ban” to be legitimate, or perhaps realizing that none of the moderators cared. In fact, none of his subsequent turns would be crossed out. On 21 February Mscoree, when asking about whether or not he could be unbanned to Edge directly, was told by Edge to “ask another mod who isn’t angry” and that if he asked another moderator he would be unbanned. It is clear, in Edge’s lack of hesitance to have Mscoree unbanned, assuming that he fulfill a requirement, that he did not believe Mscoree should be banned for this long a time, if at all.

That night Mscoree reportedly talked to a moderator as Edge had prescribed, specifically Crim. Mscoree described the conversation with Crim as follows:

"First do you think this warrants a month ban? [Link, plus information]"

Minute pause

Crim: *sigh*

What's the second thing?

Ms: Next can I get your opinion on something?

Crim: On the ban?

Ms: No [proceeds to talk about a short story]

In conversation afterward, Crim did not dispute this account. This conversation shows that Mscoree did indeed talk to a moderator, and had therefore fulfilled Edge’s requirement to some degree. Of course, Crim never said Mscoree should be unbanned, but no where did Mscoree claim that. On the record he has seemingly only claimed to have indeed talked. The closest thing to any association with Crim and an unbanning occured in the following manner:

‘’Picture taken by SkyGreen’’

It was possibly assumed by some, after viewing this conversation, that Mscoree had claimed Crim had unbanned him, or sanctioned such act. When viewing the conversation as a whole it is a long list of question and answer by Mscoree, and here it seems multiple answers were stitched together. Monster Pumpkin asks if Mscoree asked a mod, and Mscoree replies that he did, and that is why such a ban would be removed. Monster Pumpkin then asks Mscoree who he talked to, and Mscoree replies Crim. No where does Mscoree claim that Crim unbanned him, at least not when descending into an argument over semantics. One way to think of it is, 1. Edge said you need to talk to someone to remove your ban, 2. Talk to someone to remove ban 3. Therefore ban is removed, 4. Who did you ask? 5. Crim. As Mscoree later described, “I'm not sure how else to describe it, but if I knew this would happen I would have worded it better”. Even if Mscoree is indeed implying that Crim sanctioned his unbanning here, that is nothing like Crim’s claimed statement; “You told other people that I said something along the lines of 'unbanning ms is a good idea'”.

Furthermore, it was later claimed on chat that Edge never said any such thing about unbanning, but this is simply untrue. As many witnesses can attest, Edge claimed that Mscoree would be unbanned if he talked to another moderator not personally irritated at him. Such a claim seems ridiculous given the many witnesses attesting, but this brings us to the center of the issue: This is an argument over “he said she said”. We have one man’s word against another. The difference is that Mscoree was banned right away, without any proof or confirmation. Likewise, many times when this is brought up, the fact that Mscoree posted while banned. As Mscoree describes it:

“I knowingly broke the rules in protest of something I found unfair. Many people agreed, and last night Edge said he pardoned me, which by definition absolves me of said civil disobedience and likewise removed my ban. And I guess arguing any differently semantics-wise is about as useful as arguing whether or not I said Crim unbanned me.”

Whether or not Mscoree posted while banned is furthermore unrelated. If he broke the rules of PM3 then the moderators can ban him from the game accordingly. The issue at hand however is that a wiki ban was issued, and we should not use any sort of rule breakage in a game as evidence to this crime; lying.

As mentioned above there was a pardon of Mscoree by Edge and Monster Pumpkin. This occurred the following day after Mscoree allegedly talked to Crim, and resulted in Mscoree being officially unbanned and likewise pardoned. A compromise however was that Mscoree would not be allowed to count the turns posted during his ban. And with that it seemed the ban issue was behind him, as were the illegal turns. One area of confusion later voiced by Monster Pumpkin was the so called “second pardon”, a theory that Crim unbanned Mscoree a day (or more) before he was officially unbanned. This is of course not the case, nor was it ever claimed by Mscoree. This is largely the area in which confusion and accusations of lying originate, but as Mscoree said above, he never claimed to be unbanned by Crim, and any posts he made were purposely illegal, not guided by some comfort in an early unbanning.

At the center of this ban is the idea that Mscoree lied, and the evidence indicating so is largely another person’s word, namely Crim.The timing and circumstances in which this ban was issued, however, point to a conflict of interest between Mscoree and the ban issuer, CrimsonAssassin. At the time when Crim banned Mscoree, the two were at war in PM3. The history on the PM3 page indicates that Mscoree declared war on Crim, only to have the turn removed by Crim on the pretext that he was still banned, even though that turn was posted after his alleged unbanning by Monster Pumpkin (albeit he was supposed to wait until next turn). When Crim learned that Mscoree was indeed unbanned, that’s when the story emerged that Mscoree had told “someone” that Crim unbanned him. Crim of course declared that Mscoree had lied, and banned him, thus removing him from the war. If Crim had not banned Mscoree then we would have seen Crim’s nation be more damaged in game. Therefore Crim had the motive to ban Mscoree for lying, as well as possibly even fabricate the story of Mscoree spreading lies himself.

It is no doubt that six months for this infraction was excessive. Especially given that the alleged crime was simply, “lying”, that the only evidence was a notably biased individual’s word against Mscoree’s, and at a time in which the banner had incentive to ban. This ban length would mean Mscoree was banned longer than most serious offenders. When asked about this, Crim claimed the length of the ban was partially motivated by the fact that “everyone is at their last wit with your [Mscoree’s] antics, i.e., although Mscoree may or may not have lied, Crim was either personally mad enough to have his decision influenced, or had repeatedly infuriated him with constant and persistent infractions, that Crim had to ban him for this length. On the contrary however it seems the opposite has been recorded. In the last several months Mscoree’s infractions have consistently declined. It has even been noted by some admins that Mscoree has gotten better, or is not to blame for several incidents. In many cases it has been noted that Mscoree is not to at fault, but rather certain users associated with him (often without actions warranting), have tarnished Mscoree’s reputation for him.

One noted incident was during Mscoree’s third constable election, at which time he had an overwhelming majority. As Crim described it, “Unsurprisingly, Ms and his friends have sucessfully [sic] trolled chat into oblivion and got a 2 hour block until they can calm down” As other users described it:

“ I guess it's coincidental that this event happened during Mscoree's election, with the only witnesses being the people opposed to him in said election. Read the complete chat log, as you can see Mscoree essentially did not do anything. When he spoke it was mostly to tell people to calm down. Meanwhile Feud uttered several personal attacks and curses at Mscoree, Tr0llis, etc, and all Fed (the admin) did was "^". Then you wonder why Tr0llis said some things back. Strangely Mscoree is the one who is punished, along with all of them. Let's review how that happened. Crim joined chat and after only a few seconds, without even hearing what had happened, banned Ms, Tr0llis, Harv, etc. Monster Pumpkin, an admin even said it seemed like Mscoree did nothing wrong. In the chat logs themselves Tr0llis is called mature, and Mscoree is said to be the one lessening tensions, not escalating. Later I [Fritzmet] joined chat, having read the chat logs, and when I asked about it I too was immediately banned. Crim then proceeded to plaster a heavily exaggerated story on here for the sole purpose of embarrassing Ms and destroying his election. Heavily bias and inappropriate, in my opinion it undermines the entire office of admin.”

Whether exaggerated or not, it is clear that Crim posted on the election stating that Mscoree had been banned. His intention was to diminish the integrity of Mscoree’s election. As the chat log, Josh shows (https://docs.google.com/document/d/1n4a06m_MtmagmA_elMTeOvbVxNvWWAvo4NllOCtOujg/edit?pli=1#), Mscoree was largely not involved in any trolling, yet he was the first to be banned. Monster Pumpkin, an admin, later stated that Mscoree should not have been banned, in fact Feud should have. At the time however only Fed, and later Crim, were present to represent the admin staff. Feud is quoted as saying the following insults:

“you got an uppity bullshit attitude and acted like an prissy little bitch so yeah seriously fuck you you are literally unbearable that your an unbearable prissy bitch that complains when he doesnt get his way thats pretty possible...your being told that i absolutely despise you. no fuck you, you pick the worst times to fuck with people or be a troll...im drawing it from your entire history of bullshit on here since no admin will actually im saying it you literally dont deserve to have the free speach you have. You use it to troll and be an asshole. Sorry if im letting emotions speak to some degree but im absolutely done with it Fed hops on and you decide to shit on fed with a group of people fucking say anything like for real im an asshole...but guess what i dont use fucking groups to rail against people...oh my god how about you just fucking leave your a god damned problem...no im fucking angry cause it can never be fucking casual! yall cause shit every time i dont even have to be here the whole sat porno thing i wouldnt put it past you to have fuckign framed him”

This type of behavior is apparently completely acceptable, and as one admin, Fed, put it, “what Feud said”. Because to them Feud hit the nail on the head. Mscoree had supposively caused a long train of abuses, which ultimately made his block unavoidable. As Crim claimed when he banned Mscoree, it was incidents like this “trolling” that made him ban Mscoree for six months.

What this story actually shows is that Crim does not favorably view Mscoree, and likely had prejudice when viewing Mscoree’s latest incident. As one user put it, “the admins went hunting for Ms”. This is further shown when after Crim banned Mscoree, he celebrated with Fed:

There is no disputing that Crim had clear bias against Mscoree when he issued a ban based chiefly on his own word. This ban was not only disputable and motivated by a conflict of interest, it was also excessive and unwarranted. If you believe Mscoree broke a rule in PM3, it is prudent to punish him in the game, but it is unfair and illogical to punish him here. We have shown that this ban is based on speculation, on a matter that is more likely than not a miscommunication. What crime has Mscoree committed that has not been committed by Crim, and many others? What crim has Mscoree committed that is both so heinous it warrants one of the largest bans to date, with no discussion or cross examination? What crime has he committed that has put us so much into danger? The fear of such thing has motivated us to ban him, but it has not been imbedded in all of us. We believe that Mscoree should not be banned, and not for this long, and call for his immediate release

Yeah, no. He deserves what he got (arguably more, since he's got the largest ban log in AH wiki history). Fed (talk) 23:43, February 24, 2015 (UTC)

@MP It was made by several people. Tr0llis (talk) 01:27, February 25, 2015 (UTC)

When I made this decision, I realized that my judgement and reasoning behind this call, and most other calls, would be put into question. I knew full well that I could very well be nuking my career in the TSPTF. I did what I did with the position of Lieutenant in mind and the community of this wiki in my heart. With that said, I realize that stories about me have been exaggerated. It's very easy to say that someone is exaggerating when you're the one doing the exaggerating. He who smelt it dealt it, I guess?

Ms has a history of testing the limits with the rules and our patience. I've been asked many times why, if Ms is such a problem, I haven't banned him earlier. The problem is that he constantly teeters on the edge of breaking rules without actually doing so. He's warned constantly, but usually stops there. Such a disrespect for the rules, while highly annoying, isn't a crime. I refuse to block someone without a proper reason. Banning someone becaues 'he made me angry' or 'because he tests my patience' is a great way to have the ban almost immediately be called into question and dismissed. As much as people believe that the TSPTF wants this to be a police state, the opposite is true. Whenever I ban someone, I make sure that a rule has actually been broken, which is the case with Ms.

Ms lied to evade a ban. Essentially cheating a game. Furthermore, he edited a page he was banned from, which is basically vandalism. I understand that lying is a shady ground on which to block somebody. Lying to evade a ban, however, is a serious crime and should be punished with at least a month block in my opinion. If Ms didn't have a history of several warnings and blocks, he would have gotten a month. However, a cursory scan over his talk page reveals countless warnings. His block record is extensive; much longer than Owen's and Catherine's. With these warnings, past blocks, and other factors in mind, his block was extended to six months. I even believed I was being merciful at the time.

With all of this being said, Ms' block is not open for debate amongst non-TSPTF members. A petition will not change his ban. I'm sorry your friend was banned, but the fact remains that he's a constant troublemaker and has been, as such, blocked. Crim de la Crème 03:15, February 25, 2015 (UTC)

The thing is Ms apparently did not lie to evade a ban, and the one saying he did is the one who wants him banned for his own gain. It's like asking a fan of the Ravens if the Patriots cheated. The point being there is a conflict of interest. He edited a page, which you call vandalism, and then was pardoned for it. Key word is pardoned. You are now going against the decision of the other moderators, even though they came to a compromise that Ms would be unbanned, but his turns wouldn't count. Oh and need we forget actual vandals, or people like Scar who have disregarded PM3 warnings and bans. Worst they got was a few days or weeks in PM3, not on the wiki. Tr0llis (talk) 03:26, February 25, 2015 (UTC)

How exactly would banning Ms be for my own gain? Do I get a reward? Do I get some sort of good recognition for it? He wasn't pardoned by anyone. If he had, I would have heard about it beforehand. Your example about Scar isn't relevant since his crime was just vandalism, not lying to evade a ban. Crim de la Crème 03:31, February 25, 2015 (UTC)

Banning Ms is to your gain because the timing of the ban ensured that you performed more favorably in the recent war in PM3. Furthermore I believe I presented enough evidence to show you laud the banning of this user. I was in chat and MP and Edge said he was pardoned. I remember because I had a discussion of the word pardoned itself, and Scraw was like "you always do this, argue the semantics of things", etc. You said "He edited a page, which you call vandalism", so I brought up an example of vandalism. Tr0llis (talk) 03:35, February 25, 2015 (UTC)

If I wanted to ensure that the war went well, wouldn't I have just banned him until the end of the war? No reason to ban someone for six months so a war goes well for you. The only reason I laud the banning of Ms is because we're both looking forward to the half-year of peace. A troublemaker is finally caught and taken care of. You bet we showed pride in our work. I was in chat with Edge when he and I were trying to figure out who 'pardoned' Ms. If you want to use a better example, find a user who committed exactly the same crime Ms was banned for. Crim de la Crème 03:50, February 25, 2015 (UTC)

No, you would have banned him, period. And for a long enough time, which you did. "No reason to ban someone for six months", that's about half the point I'm trying to make. Excessive no matter how you spin it basically. If you don't mind could you provide some examples of Ms being a trouble maker, being banned, or otherwise causing wiki mayhem in the last few months? Ms was clearly pardoned, and if they say he wasn't they are lying. In fact here's picture evidence: Perhaps we should re-evaluate this whole ban if your evidence is being proven to be fictitious. And of course your entire defense is one person's word against another's (he said she said). Tr0llis (talk) 04:04, February 25, 2015 (UTC)

If I were wrong or if Ms wasn't lying, don't you think MP would have said something by now? Ms lied and said that I completely pardoned him. MP said that, " Ms was pardoned of his PM3 ban, under the stipulation that any turns during that period did not qualify and that he does not declare war on you until the turn after, 1787. I believe, although if this is important it may be good to check, that he broke that and tried to declare the year he was unbanned." Not only did Ms break the conditions of his pardon, he lied and said a majority mod vote, including me, unbanned him. The snide attitude is certainly not welcome and it's not going to help Ms. Crim de la Crème 04:23, February 25, 2015 (UTC)

Mp did say something, he talked to me in chat, he talked to Lordganon on his talk page, etc. Ms never said that he was pardoned by you. That was one of the main points of my argument, and I believe the center of your misunderstanding. I beseech you to find a single source in which Ms states you pardoned him. If you check the facebook chat (which I was shown), or any of the other chat logs, you see Ms did not even say the word pardon until much after. You also see him adamantly deny that you pardoned him. Furthermore, from whom did you learn that Ms said these things? Do you have any proof, or did some guy just tell you it? Do you have any proof that this guy even exists? If you further read the facebook chat, after Ms was unbanned he was away for quite a while, most likely posting said turn. He came back to find that Cookie had said something like "Ms posted in 1787 despite us telling him not to" and Ms saying "I must have missed that." The next line is a reply to Ms saying "Does it even matter?" Regardless, that turn simply didn't count either. We had a whole discussion on chat about how Ms would just start on the next turn. In fact, MP made that clear that he would have to re declare war anew. Again Ms never said a there was a majority mod vote, or any vote. Not sure where you even got that from. Read the chat logs or facebook chat, or anything, I have no idea where that even came from. This whole misconception originates in that you believe Ms interpreted talking to you as being unbanned, even though he clearly was not unbanned, and even pursued such a goal the next day. Never did Ms claim that you personally unbanned him, rather by the next day Edge and MP realized this ban was rather foolish and unbanned him. If you think it had anything to do with a vote you are mistaken. Tr0llis (talk) 04:32, February 25, 2015 (UTC)

I kinda support the TSPTF on this. But everything seems good and well. Spartian300 (talk) 09:10, February 25, 2015 (UTC)

Is there any proof Ms claimed he was unbanned? Without proof, you can't really ban him for lying. From what I understand, Ms told MP and Edge he talked to Crim, which led to MP and Edge ending the ban. That would only be a misunderstanding, nothing more. On the other hand, if Crim's side of the story is correct, with Ms' long ban log, a 6 month ban could be justified. But without proof, you can't really justify the ban of Ms. <font color="Navy">Hail Sean!  (Get a free potato here) 09:38, February 25, 2015 (UTC)

Crim's only proof is a handful of testimony, which has been proven inconsistent of incorrect by picture evidence. If you don't count the testimony proven false, than Crim has no proof. Tr0llis (talk) 11:51, February 25, 2015 (UTC)

"find a user who committed exactly the same crime Ms was banned for" Scar lied to evade a ban in PM3, and then he even cursed off the mods too. Despite being banned he kept editing, especially the map. He was banned for 'zero days on the wiki, and something like two weeks in the game. Tr0llis (talk) 12:46, February 25, 2015 (UTC)

Oh for the love of god. If anything im just going to say it this way. Every time he gets banned for whatever reason legitimate or not yall come to his aid and want to end his ban. He deserves it for one reason or another, there have been several broken rules over the past 4-6 months that have been essentially ignored due to the backlash associated with it and any attempt to ban MS. MS could have posted a picture of someone from the wiki photoshopped in an extremely derogatory way and you still would want to commute his ban. The truth of the matter is that over the past 6 months he has been caught cheating, editing pages he shouldnt be editing, messing with other peoples pages, has had multiple warnings to not act like trollbait (which he still comes back 3 days later and does it again) and finally being a general all around asshole. Were all assholes to some degree or another ill admit that. But in general MS and his friends take it to a new level by grouping up and giving one user hell until he leaves or concedes. Thats how they have survived for so long.

Trollis is even more guilty and has before posted a personal picture of myself on chat in the middle of an arguement to attempt to make it swing his way by pretty much saying "lol look at feud in this picture isnt he blankity blank." not only have i not forgotten about it but i still have a major problem with your action. MS and Trollis in general have in general not contributed enough to the wiki to make up the shortfalls of their crappy attitudes, general ignoring of rules. The Ban is deserved in one way or another. He Cheated, he got expelled, and then when having the ban lifted lied about it. the evidence you guys have posted is obviously edited, and considering you guys are good with picture editing (and with no comments on this page by MP or edge) then your evidecne can very clearly be seen as photoshopped (which ive seen a user do before on this wiki in a joking way.) Its not that hard for you guys to have made up all this evidence through photoshop just to commute MS's ban. But really if you have TSPTF guys willing to nuke their carreers over banning him you should take a long hard look at yourselves.


 * I don't feel like getting fully involved in this, but I can confirm that the pictures - and the labeling of whom they're attributed to - are genuine. They're from a big Facebook chat of which myself, Cookie, Sine, Sky, Andy, Eip, Ms, among a few others, are a part of. I was on chat when Mp, after being asked if he could authenticate the photos, said "everyone from the fb chat saw them and know they're real". So while I'm staying out of this for the most part, the evidence Tr0llis has presented is not photoshopped. I am that guy (talk) 16:52, February 25, 2015 (UTC)

As for the various claims that there was a misunderstanding, let's look at this picture.

Ms states that he was unbanned. Edge said to ask a mod who wasn't angry to get unbanned. His ban got removed and he said he asked Crim. In order to explain this further, I'm setting this up more logically:


 * Ms needed to ask a mod to be unbanned


 * Ms told us that he asked Crim


 * Therefore, Ms stated that he was unbanned by Crim.

Although the length of the ban is something I leave up to the higher-ranked TSPTF, I'm just gonna say that it wasn't ridiculous to ban him, and that's it's a valid ban. SkyGreen24 17:47, February 25, 2015 (UTC)

Wonder why this was not included in Tr0llis' original post. <font color="Navy">Hail Sean! (Get a free potato here) 18:04, February 25, 2015 (UTC)

Seems to me that its cherry picking or omiting the parts of the conversation that are incriminating or not advantageous to his arguement.

I know I am but a lower tier member of the TSPTF, but I stand behind Crim's ruling of a ban. I will not comment on the length of the ban, or whether it is justified, I leave that to my superiours to discuss. With Regards, FOR THE GLORY OF THE PARTY! 19:00, February 25, 2015 (UTC)

So yeah now that im out of class, i can point out that i may have been wrong about the photoshop manipulation (which i thought could be plausibly used for this) but was wholesale right about the manipulation of evidence. It made crim look bad and made ms look innocent pretty much. In all honesty, thanks to sky posting this Crim has even more evidence backing him and trollis has his whole arguement pulled out from under him.

The evidence trollis used was pretty obviously cherry picked and manipulated to discredit crim. In general this seems like it should be against some sort of rule itself but thats not the heart of the discussion. The Ban should stay in place in totality now. Your manipulation of evidence is rather pitiful not to mention your using me in an arguement previously when i dont even pertain to this particular situation. All in all that full chat log obliterates your arguement Trollis youve pretty much been caught red handed lying to save MS for lying in the first place...

None of the pictures are photoshopped, and I have proof of MP verifying them. I don't know if the pictures are cherry picked, I didn't take any of them. They were all given to me, and the one you call cherry picked was taken by Sky. Feud please don't add speculation and your general opinion on things, I'm trying to write the facts. As Sky shows, Ms never said he was unbanned by Crim. Edge said Ms would be unbanned if he talked to a mod, and he did. Talking to Crim (or any mod) was a prerequisite to be unbanned. Ms completed the requirement to be unbanned and hence was unbanned. "Ms needed to ask a mod to be unbanned...Ms told us that he asked Crim". And if you read the rest of the chat you see ms say that Crim said no. He wasn't unbanned by Crim, nor did he ever claim he was. You are basically just assuming such a conclusion. But narrative wise you see Ms was answering questions interrogation style. To be clear should have asked if Crim banned him. Scroll down and see where that it is essentially asked, and he says no. Tr0llis (talk) 19:55, February 25, 2015 (UTC)

Tr0ll has a point. The cherry picking was my fault. At first glance, I used the first picture to show that ms said that crim unbanned him, thinking it would be enough, then I created this one more recently, to explain it further. SkyGreen24 20:00, February 25, 2015 (UTC)

Pretty clear that he lied, imo. After obviously disregarding rules and ignoring admins again because he disagreed with their rulings. He was told how long the block would be the next time one of us decided that it was worth dealing with his cronies to block him for offenses, and got it. He knew full well what the consequences for failing to listen and lying were and would be - his own bloody fault. Trollis, you've got nothing overall. Quit beating the dead horse, before someone else grabs it to beat you with.

End.

Lordganon (talk) 15:48, February 26, 2015 (UTC)

I witnessed a lot of this, and this is my two cents. I wonder, what does Ms gain by lying here? Why did he decide to make up a story involving someone who would most certainly discredit him, even when that very day he got unbanned for real? I was in chat at the time when Ms talked to Edge and MP and various others, and they basically decided that the whole one month PM3 ban was dumb and removed it. So what's the point of lying to say he had been previously unbanned? In fact in the screenshots he says straight away that he was not unbanned the previous week and that the turns during that time were definitely illegal. You'd think if he had made up a lie saying he was unbanned a day or two early, then he would likewise say the turns from a day or two previously were valid, yet he says in that quote that they were no good, and as a result MP and Edge decreed they didn't count. Anyway, that is my thought> I just don't see the motivation for making up something dumb like that. And on a related note, shouldn't we investigate Crim's angle? seems like everyone is picking apart Ms' sentences, and meanwhile Crim's evidence is a vague story about Edge. It also appears Crim has been proven to be lying, if the picture evidence is any accord, so I imagine he'll be banned for lying too? Fritzmet (talk) 20:10, February 26, 2015 (UTC)

I just talked to Edge and it has been confirmed that Crim has lied completely in regards to his reason for banning Ms. His reason for banning Ms, a lie that he had reportedly heard from Edge, has been confirmed by Edge to be untrue. Furthermore Crim has been caught red handed lying to us on this very page.



I think it's only fair that Ms be unbanned, or Crim likewise be banned for lying. he lied to the TSPTF right before our very eyes, and used that lie to defend banning Ms. Tr0llis (talk) 02:21, March 6, 2015 (UTC)

Edge might have been refering to when MP planned to unban him, so you're going to need to give us more than just two lines to prove that Crim did what you claim he did. SkyGreen24 13:50, March 6, 2015 (UTC)

So MP, Crim, Edge, and I talked last night for quite a while, and I believe we have settled this. MP said he just wanted to ask Sky to confirm whether or not Ms ever told him directly that Crim unbanned him. This was the result:



Feel free to confirm that yourself MP, but as my conversation concluded, Ms never told anyone that Crim unbanned him directly. Tr0llis (talk) 14:23, March 6, 2015 (UTC)

After my conversation with Sky, I have reached the conclusion that, while the reasoning behind it is confusing and difficult to understand, the verdict is valid in its reaction. Sky knows more and will be able to phrase it better than I can.

Petition denied.

Insulting
Not much in particular, but it would be appreciated if Scar is taught some manners. He has been using abusive language after apparently being 'provoked' (as he claims) because I had stated that his false move of invading Albania in a Map Game has resulted in his own demise. Regardless, the point is that he should refrain from abusing other players merely because they opposed him in a Map Game. Two players were told to "Shut the F*ck Up" and referred to as 'Assholes' because they planned to invade him. I was called a 'Cunt' and 'Asshole' because I stated that Yugoslavia would fall.



I don't want to cause friction with Scar but I can vouch for the above. It's not the first time he's gotten defensive and abusive. • 18:03, February 27, 2015 (UTC)

Sometimes I think we should reset the game....

Stuff like Yugoslavia invading Albania and Austria invading Czechoslovakia, among others, like Fascist Ireland, are getting on my nerves. I may not have a say, but at the moment, we don't need to reset. Spartian300 (talk) 18:34, February 27, 2015 (UTC)

First of all, this belongs on the AvA page. Second of all, can you not do this stuff again? The mods have been handling the game fine(although I think they could use some help), and there's no reason to reset. <font color="Navy">Hail Sean! (Get a free potato here) 18:35, February 27, 2015 (UTC)

Scar went out of line... No surprise. This is not his first time, if any of you (Horton/Rimp) feel harrassed by him, feel free to leave a message on my talk page. As for Scar, you've already gotten a ban for your behaviour, so I suggest you get it together, or suffer the consequences. I hope this settles this issue. SkyGreen24 20:08, February 27, 2015 (UTC)

A Proposal
Our wiki is small compared to the rest of the althist community. In order to attract more members, a few users on chat have proposed we contact people such as Alternate history Hub (who now has over 130,000 subscribers) for a mention and also spread our name through althist reddits.

Well? Toby2: THEY CALL ME Mr. Awesome!!!

I'll also support this. Perhaps he promotes us in exchange, some users on this wiki help him on his videos or point out implausibilities.

Consul Ioshua (Talk) 22:12, March 1, 2015 (UTC)

This seems like a great idea. We'll get an influx of good users, and from what I've seen, his followers seem like very nice people. This could be very good for us, let's act on it. Upvote  - The March Sig  22:13, March 1, 2015 (UTC)

I like this idea, but what would be the specifics of it?

22:25, March 1, 2015 (UTC)

Agreed, would need specifics. Lordganon (talk) 11:45, March 2, 2015 (UTC)

Also to keep in mind - all of our members are involved in creating new content. That huge number of subscribers to the channel are just viewers. So it's hard to make a direct comparison ... But does anyone know what happened to make it grow so suddenly? There is a video on the channel from less than two years ago celebrating 2000 subscribers! And there haven't been very many videos since then. As for connecting to that Channel, I don't know what would be done other than spamming them, and I don't see that as an effective way to get new contributors.

Unlawful Promotion
I think it should be brought to the administration's attention that the user Edgeofnight is now a constable without an election.



Harvenard2 (talk) 03:31, March 7, 2015 (UTC)

First of all, there is a long story behind this. A bunch of supposed "cronies" came onto chat, in which an account named "Miggily" Harv claimed to be his sock. Because pita didn't want an all out shitstorm breaking out, and wanted some sleep, he made Edge a chat mod. That didn't seem to help. A majority of it and more is here, on this imgur album. I hope this clears things up. Saturn120 04:08, March 7, 2015 (UTC)

Edge is no longer a chat mod and the situation is back into proper TSPTF hands.

Vandalism
DeusExScienta recently vandalized the Sandbox, replacing it this message:

"NOW I WILL HAVE THIS LAND! SUBMIT TO MY TERMS!


 * 1) No chicken


 * 1) No pork


 * 1) No veggies


 * 1) I am the Law


 * 1) Peasant are required to starve for 25 hours a day


 * 1) HANDS I HAVE HANDS


 * 1) You are dumpheads"

Now I hate to beat a dead horse, but I have pretty strong feelings that this is Ratc. For one, his username brings to mind the video game Deus Ex, something Ratc was notoriously fond of. In addition, he apparently lives on Mars, bringing to mind his thing for space exploration and all that. He has repeatedly vandalized the sandbox, after his edits were reverted, in addition, making him, if not Ratc, another rather annoying troll.

I have sent him a message notifying him of his vandalism. If any higher-up TSPTFer wishes to outright ban him, go ahead.

Inactive
I don't believe we have a policy about when a member of the Task Force is officially regarded as inactive. I bring this up partly because I'm recently returned and was surprised to find my name on the still-active list, even after about 3 years without contributing. There are others on the lists who have been inactive for about that long. It would be useful to everyone, I think, to see who has not contributed in, let's say, a year; leave a quick talk page message just to check in; and move them to Emeritus. I don't think we should fiddle with admins' powers - if Political Officer Sikulu, for instance, ever decided to come back, I think we should welcome him - but it would be helpful for all users if the admin list consisted of only active members who really can participate in everything. What does everyone think? Benkarnell (talk) 13:53, March 24, 2015 (UTC)

I agree. It lets people know who's available to help. Upvote  - The March Sig

Yeah I think we should move a number of people into the Emeritus section.

 * Looking at contributions, I would actually suggest 6 months rather than a year. Not a big deal because it is easy to move one's name if one comes back. Benkarnell (talk) 22:45, April 11, 2015 (UTC)

Year, not six months. And how you went about doing that, Ben, was wrong, at best. They should have been notified first. Lordganon (talk) 11:40, April 13, 2015 (UTC)


 * Since nobody's responded (and undoing a Retirement is just a matter of moving your name), I think there's no harm done. But I get what you're saying - respect and courtesy are important. My main thought was that, since this is evidently promotion season, it would be good to have a clear list of who the current admins and mods are. And I'll certainly un-retire the (I think 2) names that fell between 6 months and a year, if that's what we want. Benkarnell (talk) 23:43, April 13, 2015 (UTC)

Hello all, as one of those moved to the inactive area, I'd just like to say that I'm fine with where I was moved to and thank Benkarnell for letting me know on my page. If I have the time to return, it's no difficulty to move myself back to the active admin section. All the best. --Zack 00:23, April 14, 2015 (UTC)

Don't worry about it for this one, Ben. My concern, imo, is that we have had guys that rarely, if ever, logged on during school terms, or the like. Year just sounds fairer overall, to me. Lordganon (talk) 11:06, April 14, 2015 (UTC)


 * Ah, true. The trouble of course is that someone who is not editing because of class terms is certainly not available to do administrative tasks. They're certainly not active admins, but are certainly not retired either.  And unfortunately there's no real way to know the difference. Benkarnell (talk) 22:21, April 14, 2015 (UTC)

Chat Confusion
Today I was banned from chat for a day, and I am honestly not sure why. I don't mean to start a giant argument by making this threat, or get anyone in trouble, I am just genuinely confused as to what is going on. As far as I know I joined chat, started talking to Tr0llis about some sort of new map game he was planning, was having a friendly conversation with him, and then I was banned. It seems my questions are being ignored, so I just wanted to make this and hopefully get the attention of an administrator who can explain this. Again, I am simply confused as to what is going on. Don't even mean to argue, someone just tell me what I did so I can prevent myself from doing it in the future. Thanks, Harvenard2 (talk) 00:45, March 31, 2015 (UTC)

TSPTF Nominations
With how large the Wiki has gotten recently, we have (unfortunately) seen the rise of factions. In order to prevent faction-voting and polarization in the TSPTF, I'd like to propose we restrict who can nominate users to the TSPTF.

I proposes the following changes:
 * Users must be either a Constable or higher to nominate a user into the TSPTF
 * Users must be either a Lieutenant or higher to nominate a user for LT
 * TSPTF majority required for a nomination raised to 3/4 - from my experience, if a user's nomination is hotly contested by the TSPTF, it is better to not have nominated said user in the first place.

Thoughts?

PitaKang- (Talk to me | Kill count: 6)

Also, I feel like the moving of inactive officers to Emeritus is one that should be looked at. PitaKang- (Talk to me | Kill count: 6)

How does this prevent factions, all this does is favor one of them. Tr0llis (talk) 01:19, April 10, 2015 (UTC)

Yeah most of this sounds good. However the 3/4 majority should only be for LTs and Brass, while constables can continue to only require 2/3 majority.

01:37, April 10, 2015 (UTC)

Scraw is right, constable elections aren't really that big of a deal. Yes, we should also look into moving inactive officers into Emeritus. —Bfoxius (talk)

Tr0llis, the issue right now (thankfully nothing has happened) is that anyone from any faction can nominate someone for the TSPTF, and as long as they have majority, said person gets in or gets promoted. With the current system, someone could nominate a total novice troll user and if he/she has enough support from the regulars and from the officers, the troll could get voted in. This creates the next problem, which is that said troll can vote for more of his own faction into the TSPTF and he'd be counted as part of the TSPTF vote.

This would also prevent non-faction related issues such as a totally unqualified individual being voted in (I'm looking at you, Toby).

Another change I would propose is that active Brass have the power to veto nominations, but only with a 2/3 supermajority - so if Ben, LG, and MP all decide to veto the nomination of Upvote, Upvote would not make it in. This would also help with unqualified individuals/trolls/popular users from getting voted in sheerly from vote and not merit.

And if no one has any objections to moving inactive TSPTF to Emeritus by Saturday I'm going to assume I can.

Thanks everyone for reading,

PitaKang- (Talk to me | Kill count: 6)


 * Rather surprised this wasn't already a rule. -- 02:52, April 10, 2015 (UTC)
 * Are Ben, MP, and LG the only active brass? --


 * I feel not having a "lazy democracy" is the best way to prevent factions from taking control of the Wiki. With all due respect Pita, I feel the system you propose would give the TSPTF too much power and run the risk of it becoming a "good old boys club" where current members only allow their friends to join instead of accepting the consensus of the community. Remember the TSPTF was only ever supposed to be a group of volunteers who took on the technical duties of running the Wiki and mediating disputes should they arise. The community as a whole should always have the real power. Again that is the ideal situation, I realize now that the culture of the Wiki puts a lot of emphasis on the opinions and decisions of TSPTF members.
 * Furthermore, the scenario you mention is unlikely to happen considering even constables need to have at least 6 months of good behavior. If they are a "troll" and have been reprimanded for bad behavior by TSPTF (by warning on talk page or temporary block), then they would be ineligible for nomination regardless of how many votes they get.
 * Also, what factions? Is this really an issue we need to rework the rules for? It seems like a lot of concern over nothing, but then again I have not been as active as before. Mitro (talk) 16:57, April 10, 2015 (UTC)

Factions have become pretty significant in the wiki in the last two years, the largest and most notorious being the "Mscovites" or "Cronies," those who band with controversial user Mscoree. And regarding unqualified individuals, I do not believe either JoshTheRoman nor Toby2 were qualified for their nomination/promotion.

I do understand your concern about the TSPTF becoming a faction in itself, however. PitaKang- (Talk to me | Kill count: 6)

I got voted in same as you. Democracy. Toby2: THEY CALL ME Mr. Awesome!!!

Pita do you have any real arguments against Josh or Toby? Cause you are just saying they're unqualified without providing any proof <font color="Navy">Hail Sean!  (Get a free potato here) 19:41, April 10, 2015 (UTC)

There are no real "factions" on here. It's all drama that users with nothing better to do harp about on the chat. Also Pita, if you don't think someone is not qualified for their nominations/promotions, simply vote "no" on their nomination. It's that easy. —Bfoxius (talk)

To be honest I don't see "factions" as a problem. Nothing like what Pita has described has ever come remotely close to happening, especially since in his scenario a hypothetical troll account would need the support of several TSPTF, and I assume that Pita and company would have the common sense not to do that. The fact that legitimate users, ie not troll accounts, like Mscoree (regardless of your opinion of him) have had giant majorities and still have not got in, show that Pita is vastly overestimating the ability of any given user to be elected. We already have plenty of checks in place, at the end of the day if they are a good candidate they tend to get in. This seems like paranoia to me, especially the part about a "domino effect" of troll accounts all being elected. And to be honest it just sounds like Pita personally dislikes the nomination of a few, like Toby, but they got in fair and square. Tr0llis (talk) 23:55, April 10, 2015 (UTC)

So, I see in this post that MP is Brass, but I cannot find that anywhere else on the wiki... what's up with that? Anyhow... CONGRATULATIONS to MP. Definitely the most deserving to be promoted (Nuke is also up there)! Anyhow, I was gone for over a month and now I (may) be back! As for the ideas laid out by Pita, I support the TSPTF nomination rule and moving people to Emeritus, but that is about it. 11:25, April 11, 2015 (UTC)

Should I say again that getting into the TSPTF shouldn't be based off of popularity, but merit? No offense to Toby, but his contributions to the Wiki aren't significant enough to warrant a promotion to LT. He has not extensively fought against vandals/trolls nor has he engaged in lots of copy-editing. Most of his edits are on map games, and I honestly don't know if he pays attention to the rest of the Wiki. My point was more on users getting elected because they are popular, rather than because they are qualified. And I believe this has, as I've stated multiple times, happened already. I'm not going to cry over Toby's nomination. Hopefully I am proven wrong. PitaKang- (Talk to me | Kill count: 6)

On another note, should pages regarding elections be categorized under "Elections" and pages talking about music be categorized under "Music?" PitaKang- (Talk to me | Kill count: 6)


 * The system as it is already has a huge check on popularity contest; namely, that it is necessary to get a supermajority of tsptf votes as well as a supermajority of non-tsptf votes. Until very recently, most promotions that passed did so with unanimous support, a sign that our system did a good job defining consensus.
 * Echoing Mitro, it's important to remember that, badges and silly titles notwithstanding, the TSPTF are managers and coordinators, not The Authorities. A Wiki format is all about collaboration by the whole community, and the job of the TSPTF is to maintain a context where the collaboration can happen smoothly (by keeping out vandals, etc.). I don't think we need to put needless restrictions on where our admins come from.
 * Regarding inactive members, I say go ahead. Scrawland, Monster Pumpkin, and I support the idea above. I can help with that if you want to divide up the work.
 * Regarding the new categories, shouldn't that be a separate topic on this page? But go ahead and create them, I say.
 * Benkarnell (talk) 21:34, April 11, 2015 (UTC)

The concept of "factions" is vastly overrated.

Nominations... Constables, irrelevant. Little to no power. Past that, they have block rights, which are more of a problem. But until someone we want nowhere near it gets constable, it's not something to worry about.

Though... a line needs to be added that with no position already, one cannot be nominated for the higher spots, or nominate for them.

Categories... wrong spot, and a case by case basis.

Lordganon (talk) 11:44, April 13, 2015 (UTC)

If it was a rule that all nominations must be made by an already existing member of the TSPTF, then you Lordganon wouldn't have even entered it when/how you did. Tr0llis (talk) 01:02, April 14, 2015 (UTC)

Wrong, lol. Arstar was a constable at the time, and shortly thereafter became the reason for the "impeachment" clauses, if you catch my drift.

Truth be told, it's always been kind of an unwritten rule that only group members should nominate new ones anyway, so we'd really just be encoding standard practice.

Lordganon (talk) 11:08, April 14, 2015 (UTC)


 * Right now the rules for nominations are listed in 2 places (this page and the Request for User Rights) page. And they are inconsistent.  The TSPTF page says (or strongly implies) that self-nominations are allowed for Constable and Brass, but this is specifically prohibited by the Requests page.  This page says that nominations for Lieutenant must be "by announcement," presumably by the admins; but as far as I know no procedure for making such an announcement exists and generally the nomination of an admin is enough.  The Request page restricts who can nominate Brass, but not Lieutenant or Constable.  So some clarification is definitely needed, at the very least to bring consistency to those 2 pages.
 * I agree that self-nomination should not be allowed. This is probably the single best check against frivolous or trollish nominations.  IMO the best policy for nominations is that you can nominate "one of your own."  So any user would be able to nominate another user for Constable, but only Constable and above could nominate someone for Lt., and only Lt. and Brass could nominate someone for Brass.  To me that catches the intent or spirit of the current rules and practice.  Benkarnell (talk) 22:15, April 14, 2015 (UTC)

Too much emphasis is being placed on "factions" if I'm honest. I think users need to stop worrying about this as much and maybe look into creative ideas that could build the next big TL. After all, the wiki is meant to be a hub of creative thinking. :)  Imp (Say Hi?!) 21:03, April 14, 2015 (UTC)


 * I absolutely agree. Benkarnell (talk) 22:16, April 14, 2015 (UTC)

Don't think that such announcements have been made in years - if memory serves, it was something like "one per 2000 articles" or some such thing. I remember removing that line because it was rather... pointless, given things. Thought I removed the announcement bits too - guess I missed some.

Maybe make it say that anyone can nominate constables, but it would be preferred if it was a team member already that did it?

Lts... even that, it should probably be LT or above that can make it. The block power is a pretty big one, after all.

Alus2220456
Recently on 12 May 2015, Spartian300 and NFSreloaded posted a new message to Alus2220456 under name "What are you doing?". It says that user Alus2220456 edit pages without any byte, just in zero only. So, it look like badge hunting and he broke Althistory rules and then it's goal is to earn more badges to grow his achievement points, maybe 1,000 edits he still dreaming. So admins, let's give an warning to this or simply block user Alus2220456 for badge hunting reasons.


 * I went ahead and blocked this guy for a week. -- 20:20, May 12, 2015 (UTC)

Recently on 13 May 2015, a new user named Rechardz3z is a sockpuppet of Alus2220456. Like with his previous account, he seems like a troll and spam, editing pages without any byte mostly he hunting in Future Wiki and he is now an badge hunter. This user doesn't edit pages on Althistory really, but you can simply report the Wikia staff in order to globally block Rechardz3z for badge hunting reasons.

And Alus just declared himself "overlord of futures", for some reason. He seems to think he is all that, and that the more badges he has, the better for him to be the overlord, or something. I think a permaban is in order. And yes, a report to wikia staff. Spartian300 (talk) 08:18, May 14, 2015 (UTC)

Of course, if she comes back, I will have to start telling her off about it, and my mother can also tell her to stop. NO need for a ban on her. She listens to our mother more then me.

As you all may or may not know, Tr0llis has been permabanned. I think it's fair that I say exactly what happened, as it involves a gross mistrust of information on his part at the expense of several users, myself included.

A few weeks ago, Tr0llis claimed a member of my family contacted him with information and has been harassing him. When I asked who the family member was, he responded with the name, university from which he graduated, and where he lived. Immediately, alarms started going off in my head about this. Needless to say, I was displeased. I should remark that I went to wikia central at this time to see if they could do anything about this breach of information. Sadly, they couldn't do anything since all I had were screenshots of his chat with me.

I stumbled across information from an anonymous source (who will remain anonymous unless this source chooses to come forth). Not only did Tr0llis have a sockpuppet, the sockpuppet had the real name of a user on this site. This behavior, creepy and borderline obsessive, is not going to stand.

I would like to point out that anyone who has linked their facebook to this site in ANY WAY (via page likes or actually friending people on the wiki) is at risk for having their identities and information compromised.

I would like everyone to keep their eyes peeled for Tr0llis, if (when) he makes a new account for the wiki. I don't want another witch hunt, but I don't want him back on the wiki either.

Crim de la Crème 13:54, June 5, 2015 (UTC)

Not sure how I feel about anonymous sources. Doesn't seem to me to be a way for the TSPTF to generate trust from the community at large. If said source wants to reveal himself, then he can.

Regarding sockpuppets, I think a reform needs to be set into place regarding the rules and punishment thereof. Merely having a sockpuppet here isn't a justifiable punishment anymore, since many users past and present have acknowledged using sockpuppets before confessing cleanly to TSPTF. I think it would be more important to look at how they used said sockpuppets and if they used them to manipulate any of the systems we have here at the wiki (which yours was used to do, Crim) and then proceed.

That's why I banned the sockpuppet in question, JoelDouglas, because literally nothing had been done here seeking to manipulate the system, and not Trollis, who confessed as much to the source in question. Seeing as confessing sockpuppets to a TSPTF warranted a ban for the sockpuppet only dating back to when Mitro dealt with Crim's issue, I feel as though that should be a sufficient way to address the issue of sockpuppets in the future, unless the TSPTF wants me to enact a purge of several people I know right here and now.

Regarding the acquisition of real life information, I can't really comment in defense thereof, since that is very much disappointing and warrants no real excuse. I leave it up to the community to decide the fate regarding that matter, since I don't believe it has ever happened here before.

Crim, do you even know how Tr0llis got that info? I mean, it could have been legit, but still. This does raise questions. Also, why'd you have to name the sockpuppet?Spartian300 (talk) 16:51, June 5, 2015 (UTC)

I personally do not agree with how Tr0llis has been banned. From the looks of your story Crim, which by the way is only half of the story, it seems this is what happened.. Well thats that.. I see no reason for why Tr0llis has been banned other than personal bias most likely. I think most members of the wiki are already aware of the 'hate' that exists between Crim, Fed and Feud against Ms, Tr0llis and Harv and I don't see why that could not be playing a role here. Such weak arguments previously used to ban Ms and now Tr0llis is not a good thing. I think that it is quite obvious why Tr0llis has been truly banned but seems like no one really cares. <font color="#057D31">♣There is no good or evil: <font color="#7D0552">only power and those too weak to seek it♣  17:00, June 5, 2015 (UTC)
 * A member of Crims family contacted Tr0llis and started to harass him. As evidence that he was speaking the truth, Tr0llis informed Crim of all the information regarding that 'member' which Tr0llis most likely received from the member himself. However, for some reason, Crim is trying to place this inside "Breach of Information" despite the fact that there is no other way for Tr0llis to have received said information except through that 'member of Crims family'.
 * Crim was informed by an Anonymous source that Tr0llis had an Anonymous alternate account, named after the real name of another Anonymous user. This pretty much does not add up and we combine that with what MP said.

If I truly banned people over how I felt about them rather than clear and present information, I would have outright purged the cronies long ago. That's not how I operate. Had you read what MP had said, he was simply saying that there should be a reform in the sockpuppeting department. I personally agree with what he said. Regarding anonymous sources, like I said, the user has the ability to come out at any time. I do that out of courtesy to the user/s involved in this predicament.

On an important note, I'd like to call for civility in this matter. I realize people on both sides will have some strong things to say about users involved in this situation, be it about Tr0llis or other elements. Crim de la Crème 17:43, June 5, 2015 (UTC)

I personally believe that Tr0llis should be temporarily unbanned to hear his side of the story until a final verdict is reached. Otherwise like I said, the entire thing would be one sided. <font color="#057D31">♣There is no good or evil: <font color="#7D0552">only power and those too weak to seek it♣  17:48, June 5, 2015 (UTC)

Just a quick drop; each of these anonymous users are respected members of the wiki, because I was the one who also saw the evidence if we shall put it that way. And let's not forget that Ms, Tr0ll and Tr0ll's sockpuppet seem to have wikis dedicated to an anti-althistory and anti-TSPTF view.

As for MPs argument that we shouldn't permaban sockpuppeteers, I honestly am not sure about that. We've done it so far, atleast since I joined. But seeing as how Tr0llis doesn't seem to have a pro-community stance when it comes to the wiki (See: Pretty much everything on his user page explains it), I don't see a problem in permabanning him.

SkyGreen24 17:50, June 5, 2015 (UTC)

Well, although the sock in question never once edited, it HAD joined that chat, even getting banned from it. More so, lets not forget it used a users name as an ID, kinda creepy

HOWEVER, seeing as the sock never formally edited the wiki, and although the revolution site is a nuisance, it isnt illegal.

so, what should we do? I will let the community decide that with my opinion because there are multiple strikes for and against him. Toby2: THEY CALL ME Mr. Awesome!!!

This is a pretty large stretch on Crim's part. A different user, on a different wiki (meaning it wouldn't even be illegal by Wikia's own rules) made a post detailing how Crim sockpuppeted in the past. From what I was told on chat, someone reported this to Wikia Staff and they looked into Crim's sockpuppeting. Then someone contacted Tr0llis claiming to have personal information about Crim, and Tr0llis did the right thing; he immediately reported it to TSPTF and Crim himself. I'd imagine Crim saw the information on said post outted his sockpuppeting, and tried to clean up lose ends. It's just a shame this is the thin evidence for such a thing. Fritzmet (talk) 20:03, June 5, 2015 (UTC)

"A few weeks ago, Tr0llis claimed a member of my family contacted him with information and has been harassing him."

Notice Tr0llis immediately reported the information to you.

"I stumbled across information from an anonymous source"

Seems legit.

"I would like to point out that anyone who has linked their facebook to this site in ANY WAY (via page likes or actually friending people on the wiki) is at risk for having their identities and information compromised."

And so begins general hysteria.

"I would like everyone to keep their eyes peeled for Tr0llis, if (when) he makes a new account for the wiki."

Tr0llis is the new Ratc, no reason to actually investigate what happened, or get his side of the story. Your promise that you have evidence (without showing it) should be enough to ban. Harvenard2 (talk) 20:30, June 5, 2015 (UTC)

Inb4 I get messages on other wikis, TVtropes, and fucking STEAM about how muh former wiki is mucking about.

I left this wiki because i hated the way it had become a warzone between the so called Mscovites and the TSPTF.

First of all, the names of MANY users on this wiki is available to everyone who goes on chat. I mean, ffs, CRIM, YOU linked my facebook on chat. I didn't care- still don't- but what im saying is that its not hard to know a lot of this information.

Jesus "I come after 3 days" Christ, when did Ms become public enemy number one? When did anyone who associated with him become "anti-community" and "anti-wiki"? I left this wiki because i couldn't stand Ms and his shit anymore, and frankly even IM having trouble understanding this! I can't believe I'm saying this, but I agree with Harvey. Anonymous sources? Hysteria inducing statements?

This isn't a moderation force anymore, it's a fucking witch hunt.

Oh, and no one- NO ONE- has mentioned checking with wikia about Troll and his "sockpuppet". Do they have the same IP? Has anyone checked?

Fuck, why does this have anything to do with Troll? I could have come back on the wiki, used the information i can get from KNOWING YOUR NAME AND FACEBOOK, created the account, and started dicking with Troll! You have privacy protection, but not all your friends do, I'm sure the one in question has their page open to the public, as is the default setting!

In the words of the great Bill Nye (the Science Guy): "That just makes no fucking sense! I mean, it's just bullshit! Fuck!"

Peace, your departed comrade,

I joined chat late, and looks like I narrowly dodged Crim's banning of the ones who spoke out against him. According to other accounts Harv was being interrogative, but Rad was fairly patient and just asking to see Crim's side of the argument. Whatever the case there's three days for them just like that. I was linked some chat logs, and it appears Crim was asked several dozen times to explain why he banned Tr0llis, to simply show the evidence. He instead dodged the questions and played games with the ones asking, leading me to think there is no evidence. Fritzmet (talk) 03:13, June 7, 2015 (UTC)

Things clearly seem to be getting out of hand. Over the next week I shall try to come onto chat to sort this shit out. This is clearly being dragged too far for my liking. Imp (Say Hi?!) 14:49, June 7, 2015 (UTC)


 * Just giving a heads up that Tr0llis appears to be stalking me (or at least my CSS). He contacted me on MS's Wikia about my recent edits. Freaked out a little, so giving you all a heads up and to add this to his roster. -- 22:35, June 12, 2015 (UTC)

Sounds like a large over reaction. Fritzmet (talk) 22:50, June 12, 2015 (UTC)

So is anyone going to do something about this? It's been nearly a month and Crim has yet to present the actual evidence of Tr0llis doing something. We've contacted multiple Wikia staff members who all said Tr0llis did nothing wrong. We've shown screenshots of emails, chat logs, and messages with the staff all backing up this story. Whereas Crim claimed he had shared his "evidence" with select people, all of whom later confirming they didn't see anything. And whenever you mention this in chat near Crim he just starts issuing bans. Half the active TSPTF has already spoken out against this ban, or have stated that they haven't seen any evidence and/or are confused what is going on. Is anyone going to do something here? Fritzmet (talk) 04:57, July 4, 2015 (UTC)

Hey Chat Problems?
So yeah, I'll admit I was banned on June 6, 2015 at 20:07.

Advertising
So a user named Addemup9001 came to chat today and asked if he could advertise his own wiki here. I said no, but I decided to ask just to be sure.

Pretty sure Addemup9001 is the guy who has been asking to advertise his wiki here constantly for the past few weeks. Considering that our wiki probably won't be affiliating with his cartoon crossovers fan fiction wiki thing, or his future wiki (whose existence is both redundant and its material contradictory to our rules), any time soon, we should probably treat this as spam. He comes on chat quite a lot, seemingly only to spam the link to these wikis. Fritzmet (talk) 18:39, June 17, 2015 (UTC)

Awesome history 28 and Melon Man32
At the latest turn of the Global War Map Game (during the time of this publishing), Awesome history, the 'Australia' player, has declared that a new nation called 'Lancashire' has risen up in an England being defeated. He/she also claims that Australia, of all countries, should have occupied islands in Great Britain, but I will let our mods Handle this. Now, I would have let this implausibility aside, but I noticed that 'Lancashire' had been added to the nations list WITHOUT any mod approval. Melon Man32, the player of 'Lancashire' had also posted in the same turn during its unapproved independence and accepted an offer made by Australia to it. After checking their contributions, Melon Man32 had surprisingly only made edits on Global War, implying that he knew of the game before making his account. I suspect Awesome history 28 of sockpuppeting the Global War Map Game and would like to see some investigation regarding this matter

My chat ban is unfair and heavily biased.
Okay, so I got banned for a day for harassment by Upvote, for reasons I have elected not to reveal, as merely mentioning it's classification will be incriminating enough in my opinion. And frankly, getting a user banned is not worth my bloody time.

Anyway, I would like to point out that Upvote has developed a negative view of me. When I was on chat, he told some newbie that the first rule of the wiki was not to talk to me. I got offended, and said the second rule is that Upvote is a liar, and made a comment concerning Upvote's transgender status. Things escalated from there, with me making jokes and stuff about having more ball sacks then normal, and making an immature insult which we all used at some point, the "I know you are, but what am I". Frankly, I only ever made insulted if insulted, which Up did repeatedly. United Republic came on, and starting talking about dank memes. I asked about it, and then refused to tell me what it. I googled it, of course. Anyway, UR started spamming the chat with a link for Paul Blart Sex Slave dank meme, of all things, and Upvote let him get away with it. It was only four times, I admit, but UR also spammed me in PM with Lenny faces, which was really annoying. He even told Upvote, and Up did nothing. Literally nothing.

Anyway, you can look at the chat log for the confrontation, but I can assure, I did nothing much to earn a real ban. Indeed,Upvote claimed to have warned me, but said warnings were rather insulting, calling me 'bitchy-ass' and such. Another thing was that he said I didn't deserve to live. Geez, Upvote, what the hell? That's a line that shouldn't be crossed. I put up with horrible brothers at home, I don't need this BS.

Sincerely, Spartian300 (talk) 03:25, July 4, 2015 (UTC)

"for reasons I have elected not to reveal, as merely mentioning it's classification will be incriminating enough in my opinion" So you just admitted that what you did was ban worthy, and say you will not reveal the thing you did, because then it will be clear you're guilty.

"getting a user banned is not worth my bloody time" But complaining about bans is.

Revealing personal information on chat about other users, especially for the purpose of harassment, probably warrants this ban in of itself. Let alone the thing that you find actually incriminating.

And by the time an admin even reads this, or is somehow sympathetic toward your cause, your ban will be expired anyway. And it's only a chat man. People are chat banned for much longer, for doing much less. At least yours made sense. Fritzmet (talk) 04:54, July 4, 2015 (UTC)

Explanations are so tedious. The info is also known to Upvote, who has elected to not share it. I also was able to deduce said info from a single typo, and I can assume that Sky knows about. My point is, Upvote had severak chances to ban me, and while did give me warnings, did things worthy of a ban. I am only complaining because I don't want to let Up get away with this. Furthermore, I won't reveal what I know because frankly, it's as I said, bloody not worth my time. I won't tell on the user in question, but still feel that Upvote was motivated by bias and not what should motivate a mod in my opinion: duty.

And I was not attempting to harassed the user. Upvote was protecting this user, and wanted me gone so I couldn't tell. But the evidence was enough for me. However, another, unrelated incident is motivating me in not telling.Spartian300 (talk) 05:04, July 4, 2015 (UTC)

You said getting a user banned wasn't "worth my bloody time", but then proceeded to say "I don't want to let Up get away with this". Make up your mind already. Explanations aren't tedious when you're trying to explain why you shouldn't be banned. How is it tedious but you're willing to write out a whole paragraph of nonsense, and how is it tedious if it's crucial to getting unbanned? "Upvote had severak chances to ban me, and while did give me warnings" Case closed. You admit yourself you did several bannable offenses, and he was already being lenient with you. Again you can't say arguing this isn't worth your time, and then proceed to write several paragraphs of nonsense anyway. So in conclusion, you have made yourself sound heavily guilty, and I didn't even have to hear Upvote's side of it. If it's that bad that in your apparent defense you incriminate yourself, it's probably even worse. There's no one on chat, and by tomorrow when people are on your ban will expire anyway. I have no position of authority on the matter, and I've probably said too much and feed your trollish behavior too much as it is, but if it was up to me you'd stay banned. Now please stop spamming the TSPTF talk page, and just wait until tomorrow. Even if you were innocent, no other admins are online. And even if they were and they unbanned you, no one's even on chat, and probably won't be in any major force until tomorrow. So all around a complete waste of time complaining here. Fritzmet (talk) 05:16, July 4, 2015 (UTC)

This is stupid. I have reviewed the stiuation and all the relevant information. Spar, I am not surprised that you were banned from chat again. Honestly, all of your violations and offenses should have accumulated into a lengthy block by now. This did not need to put on the TSPTF talk page and just wait the ban out. Future note: extend the length of Spar's ban by one increment (or more, depending on the severity of the offense) every time he commits an offense.

05:36, July 4, 2015 (UTC)

Even if I wanted to wait it out, at the same time, Upvote did do some things that are very rude and offensive, namely saying I didn't deserve to live, which is very hurtful. I would most certainly enjoy an apology. I also feel like Upvote ignored me being spammed because Up doesn't like me. So, I can wait it out, but want some kind of apology. Spartian300 (talk) 12:52, July 4, 2015 (UTC)

I will see what I can do in that regard. While it seems clear that Spar did do something wrong, it should be standard policy of the TSPTF to remain above insults and the like.

"<font color="#AACC99">This is not your grave  but you are welcome in it. " 16:46, July 4, 2015 (UTC)

Okay, I'd like to clear some points up. MP is right, the TSPTF should be above insults. But I did not say that Spar deserved to die. If I did happen to insult him, which I don't remember myself doing, then I was repeating Spar's insults that he threw at me. I don't think what I did should have offended him in any way, especially since I was just repeating the things he was telling me. When he called me all those pointless names, I simply told him I didn't really care. I think that counts as being above insults. I even apologized multiple times in the chat, since he told me that I had offended him. He did not bother to do the same to me. So I'm sorry if I hurt you in any way, but I think you were making a big deal out of a small problem. And the fact that you posted here just proves my point even more. And Spar did not mention anything about being spammed in PM on the chat, so I couldn't have possibly known this. Judging by all the information here, the ban was justified. You were purposefully trying to make people in the chat feel bad about themselves, and your harassment will not be tolerated here again.

Okay. Up, you just crossed the line. You. Are. LYING!

First case in point: Up said I didn't deserve to live. That is on par with saying that someone deserves to die.

Second case in point: UR actually told you he was spamming me in PM. Which you responded to, and I quote, "Don't do that." And nothing else.

Third case in point: I WAS THE ONE COPYING INSULTS, YOU LIAR! Excuse the outburst, but I was. Up said the following:

I am the most retarded person on the wiki.

I'm an immature ass-bitch.

I'm should not be talked to.

When I asked UR not to spam a link to a dank meme, Up told him to.

I know there is more, but that was what kinda hurt a bit. I do try to be mature, but really, dealing with this is hard. I put up with Scar, but this was out of line. On many levels.

Up has lied to you all with that last post. And if he/she tries to keep me off chat, we'll, damn it all, the weight of my pride is too heavy for that. Spartian300 (talk) 02:38, July 6, 2015 (UTC)

Upvote's Grudge
As of late, Upvote has become increasingly hostile whenever I am around and due to the constant grudge that the 2 of us have had as of late, the situation is becoming increasingly unbearable. However, as of late, Upvote has threatened to kick me off of the chat just for being me. What I do not understand though, is the basis of this threat to ban me, and as a result, I have decided to come to the TSPTF for advice. I am not seeking Upvote's removal from the TSTPTF in any form. I am merely seeking advice on what to do in this particular situation. AADN, Protecting America from Potential Theats ( Stop Terrorism Today!) ( CIA Offices · FBI Offices) 03:09, July 8, 2015 (UTC)

I don't exactly know what you're talking about. I wasn't hurting you, and I didn't threaten you. You continued to act like you were above me, and I simply ignored you. And I don't think small chat issues like this belong on the TSPTF page. One needs to check himself, before one wrecks himself.

Upvote. Have you forgotten that you literally threatened to ban me from chat if I continued making my sort of map game? Because......ahem.....must I quote what happened and copy-paste literally everything that occured on chat?

I'm going to have to ask you to take this down. Screenshots of the conversation are fine, but this is too long. I think this whole subsection should be taken down, chat arguments are pointless on the TSPTF page.

Listen, this whole tirade is getting old and boring. Ace introducing a new map game every month or so to promote his game is also getting annoying to me as well. Also multiple people have told him to stop talking about space on a wiki dedicated to alternate history. Not space or sci-fi. Though we have talked about dumb shit in chat before in chat. Not to the constant and incessant talking and near continuous talk that Ace has about space, science, and sci-fi. As much as I like sci-fi, we all have our limit to how much we can take the same subject over, and over, and over, and over again. Multiple people again have asked him to tone it down or talk to people in PM about it, as to not fill up chat with constant science talk. That's just my whole thing. Plus Ace threatening people is mad cute in my opinion. ;p. .....  Because I'm Just... Too... SSSWWWEEEEEETTT!!!. 3:30, July 8, 2015 (UTC)

Ace can you just cut the fucking horseshit already? Literally every other day I have to ask you to not discuss MGW issues on this wiki's chat. Go to MGW chat if you need to discuss MGW things. Also, stop telling people what to do. If a mod tells you something, don't tell them to shut up.

04:39, July 8, 2015 (UTC)

Ace you'e got to be kidding me. That giant thing you posted if anything makes Upvote appear innocent. For one it shows you spamming about content not even pertinent to this wiki. "Have you forgotten that you literally threatened to ban me from chat if I continued making my sort of map game?" As your chat log shows that is completely and utterly a lie. He never threatened anything of the sort, in fact he even said "make as many map games as you want." The only person who was threatening, ironically, was you. Not to mention Upvote is right, the spamming is annoying, and he did his job and asked you to stop. If you want to go down the road Ratc did you can, but don't bring this up on the TSPTF talk page to annoy everyone further. Fritzmet (talk) 17:07, July 8, 2015 (UTC)

I need help
This IP 79.16.179.159 has been removing proposal tags, adding categories and basically messing around with 1983:DD articles, and I'm surprised that no one has picked up on it. Can someone please ban him/her and revert all of his/her edits? Godfrey Raphael (talk) 04:10, July 20, 2015 (UTC)

Stephanus rex and Stephanus Rex II
When I'm back online to Althistory wiki on 4:30 PM, I suddenly discovered that when Stephanus Rex II creates the page Treaty of Sanya (Principia Moderni III Map Game), he is a sockpuppet and secondary account made by Stephanus Rex. Can someone admins to block Steph's sockpuppet, Stephanus Rex II?

The first account did not edit for a while and I assume he shut that one down to make a new one. It happened before with MI6-CIA and his previous account and it could happen with rex too.

Regards,Tao64

It's not a sockpuppet, only owen or rebelsoldier would be that obvious about it. Unless Steph gets control of his old account back, I don't see any present issue.

"<font color="#AACC99">This is not your grave  but you are welcome in it. " 22:29, July 21, 2015 (UTC)

Just block his old account, that's fairly common practice when someone makes a new/replacement account. It was pretty clear this wasn't a sockpuppeting attempt, but a lost account. Eric just wasn't aware of that. Fritzmet (talk) 22:39, July 21, 2015 (UTC)

To put an end to this, MP, Tao, and Fritz are correct. I lost my old account. So blocking it would be an appropriate response. Sorry about the confusion. Stephanus Rex II (talk) 22:03, July 22, 2015 (UTC)

Upvoteanthology
It Brings me sadness to write this, because I supported Upvote for Chadmin. But Upvote has clearly reached two reasons for facing impeachment, you could argue 3 of the 4.


 * They are not actively participating as a member of the TSPTF.


 * They have have not been fair, restrained, and/or constructive in their dealings with other editors.


 * They consistently refuse to follow the conventions and guidelines of this community.

Like I said, you could argue on that last one but I digress. Because this is a sensitive issue with little precedence, I will go through and clearly describe why Up deserves to be considered for impeachment

Cronyism...

When you see this word on this wiki, most people jump to Ms and his friends, but you can apply this to Upvote as well. Upvote outright refuses to kick her friends on the wiki, and if you appose her friends, you are violating some form of cosmic law that only she knows about. The best example of this would be various arguments I have had with a user, Lightning Lynx. There are two examples when LL and I got into an argument, and LL started insulting me personally attacking me, calling me a Retard on one occassion and writing various profanities in all caps. Was Upvote present? Yes. Was LL kicked or even warned to stop? No. On one occassion another mod stepped in to stop it, and in the other I told Up that LL was bothering me and she refused to act. Less than an hour later she even made jokes about the incident. Admittledly, I could have done more to avoid the argument, but I was not writing in all caps profanities that would turn a salior's head. I was using Logic, Rhetoric, sources, and general debate flow, while LL just responded by yelling at me with his keyboard. Upvote was present and active in both situations and she refused to act. This clearly shows fuffils the first reason for impeachment. I could also write in more detail about these incidents if it is required. While we are on the topic of friends, lets move on to another issue.

Ace009...

Ace wrote on the TSTPF Page that he felt persecuted by Up, and while many shruged it off, when combinded with other incidents, there seems to be a clear bias against Ace on Upvote's part. While Ace often acts out of line, he is most often provoked by Up. Up will often jump in when another user critizes Ace, turning what may of been something constructive into an "Let's pick on Ace fest." It's borderline cyberbullying and several times Ace has wanted to leave the wiki because of what is mostly her harrasment. While other users have at times picked on Ace, Upvote is the only one who has no justifaction in it. JoshtheRoman told Ace that he never contributed to their collaboritive timeline, Upvote jumped in on it, saying Ace never contributes to anything at a time when Ace was an active member in PM3.

When going back and re-reading Ace's post, a few things stand out to me. The first is this...


 * Upvoteanthology "anything future is space-themed for Ace" "ya dingus"

The game she is talking about isthis. Though it might be scary for some to read a MGW page, if you do read it, you will see that it is not Space Themed. In fact, a quick search through Ace turns in that game will show that he doesn't even mention Space. Upvote clearly jumped to assumptions here, but that isn't what stands out to me most. What stands at most is when she threatens ace with a ban if he talks about his games on chat. Did she threaten people when they where talking about Map Game of Thrones 2? No. Does she threaten people who talk about PM3? No. Did she ever threaten me when I made a game and talk about it on chat? No.  Even further down on this, She tells ace to "Shut the Fuck up" and then goes an throws her rank at Ace

There are many other instances when Up has borderline bullied Ace beyond the chat log I have torn apart for you today. For the Sake of not spending 2 hours writing this, let me move on.

Abuse of Power...

Tonight more than ever, Upvote has shown a clear abuse of power. tonight, to which I have several witnesses, upvote has acted against one of her duties. Let me begin with some background. There has been murmers of me getting a nommination for the TSTPF. 2 users, who despite being vocal in their support for me will be left unnamed, have said they wanted to nom me for chadmin. Recently, Upvote's first and token Timeline, Vikings in the New World, has been nominated for a fetured Timeline status. When I resonably voted against it, upvote got upset. She said that I either needed to vote yes, or not vote at all. when I refused to remove my legitamte vote, she stated that she would remember this when I got nominated. This is clearly a low key threat to try and get me to remove my vote, with Upvote knowing that a vote from a TSTPF member is valuable in elections, but it gets better/worse(r?). As users began to voice legitamte opinions against the Timeline, upvote became more and more withdrawn from the chat. Saying that she didn't care about the nomination. Her aformentioned Crony, LL, began to rant and insult people, saying that we took this too "ceral" and that we need to lighten up. He called the people on chat "Faggots" and when I said he was acting immature, he responded with fuck you. Scraw kicked him for being unconstructive, and with no warning, I was kicked by up. When I came back, Up justifed it by saying something along the lines of "If we are going to kick people randomly, might as well kick someone else." I didn't Fexcept this. If she wanted to joke kick someone, there are several users who's name was before and after me on the user list. Why not randomly kick Fritz, or someone else? I came back to chat and asked why I had been kicked several times, to which upvote ignored. I then mentioned impeachment, hoping that by raising the stakes I could get a resoponse. Did I? Nope. Do I still want one? Yup. Did Up respond when I mentioned impeachment? Yes. So she clearly saw what I wanted and chose to ignore it.

Conclusion...

Upvote is an amazing contributuer, who clearly has many good ideas. But does that make her a good chadmin? This is the question I am asking you to answer. Don't look at her achivments as an editor, look at her achivements as a mod. If you can honeslty find me one example where she acted completly unbiased, against her own intrests, for the bennifit of the community, then I can understand your objections. If you can find one time when She enforced order, then feel free to vote no to this impeachement. But what I have shown today are moments where Upvote did more harm then good. Sure, everyone may look at her stirling awards, and look at all the TL's she works on, and think that she deserves her chadmin status. But remeber the question I posed in the start of this paragraph. Does that make her a good chadmin? That is what I wll leave you with today. One single question.

I have seen many occasions in which it seems that up had a personal bias against ace. This is not acceptable by any standards. Just sharing my opinion on the matter. ~Tao64

I think I have been a victim of Upvote before. Yes, I am referring to that short ban, but if we had a chat log for it, you would see my point. Also, another example of cronyism is an underage user that got on chat. For the sake of sanity and reason, the user will be unnamed. I noted a spelling error, and guessed the users age. I was wrong, but Up told me his age, and then kicked me. In fact, Up's claim that he only insulted me defensively is BS of the highest order, as I was the one doing that.

Of course, Up clearly has another crony, in a way. Namely, United Republic. He did spam me in PM with Lenny faces, and did even tell Up he was doing. Up told him not to do it, but really, that wasn't much of a response. UR has also annoyed me several times, and frankly, it's annoying. I suspect Upvote is helping UR not get banned or kicked from chat.

I can also testify that yes, Upvote does have a grudge against Ace. But if we all recall, I made mention if the fact Upvote used insults and stuff against me, as well as the "he doesn't deserve to live" one. For someone with autism, that can really hurt. Also, you all said you would look into it, but nothing really came up from it. I want an answer for that still. Upvote, IMO, has a grudge against me as well as Ace.

Frankly, Upvote has grown disillusioned with power. I support impeachment, even if I don't matter in the vote.

Spartian300 (talk) 13:38, July 24, 2015 (UTC)

I agree with all of Edge's points. From a neutral viewpoint it has been obvious that Upvote is practically a leader of her own 'cronies', most of which agree LL is included in, but several more users may be also within the tight-knit group. Not only does she voluntarily not discipline them when need be; but also she is openly hostile (in general) to anybody not in this group. Ace is a victim of said practice, and is often victim of ridicule among the chat in general. However, Upvote, except recently took this to another level. So much as to Scraw and MP having to step in to stop an argument Upvote and Ace was having. It's quite ironic that the person put in place to defuse tense situations in chat, is the one who is lowering the quality of chat. Although Upvote knows Ace has Aspergers syndrome among of many symptoms include Taken from Wikipedia:
 * Difficulties in basic elements of social interaction

Said behavior gives excuses for Ace's speech in chat, Upvote's speech in chat, I can find no excuse for...

I have failed to obtain screenshots of said situations, but I have several witnesses of these events such as Scraw, Edge and other trusted members of this community.

Consul Ioshua (Talk) 13:25, July 24, 2015 (UTC)

These are some good points, and I can personally vouch for them as well. Last night was a prime example of Lynx spamming chat with curse words and insults. Most of the other users in chat, ironically the less respected ones like Tr0llis, were trying to calm him down. Upvote as a moderator had an obligation to step in, but refused to kick Lynx. On the other hand he then kicks Edge out of anger, and if you look at the context, it was right after he refused to change his vote on her timeline.

While a lot of users mess with Ace on occasion, this is largely on Upvote's instigation. The frequent encouraging and participating in bullying on this site by someone who is supposed to be above that is intolerable. We have created a chat where people think that is okay as a result, and I have to hold Upvote responsible for not upholding the office of constable to a higher standard.

Additionally last night Upvote is responsible for the principle "shitstorm" that erupted. In addition to kicking Edge and then refusing to justify it (if she had said it was a joke or something maybe he'd be less mad, instead it was a form of intimidation), Upvote began the night by posting a lie on the nominated timelines page. She stated that OBS only had one century, when this was objectively false; it has five. It's clear this was done for the purpose of slandering Tr0llis/his timeline, now when it was up for election. When asked about this she said that people had done the same to her, namely the statement that VINW is "mostly stubs". The loophole was that she said, it's not mostly stubs because she obsoed all the stubs. Of course that makes VINW even less full of content, but that is irrelevant to this conversation. The point is she started an argument that is petty and immature, and is what I've come to expect. Immediately after that is when she and Lynx began their rants.

So for all those reasons I'm afraid I agree with you guys. Fritzmet (talk) 14:19, July 24, 2015 (UTC)

It is clear she abuses her moderator power to selectively ban or not ban certain users. Additionally she uses her moderator powers for political censorship, in the case of trying to remove criticism of her time, or squash a TSPTF election. Last night I witnessed some of this first hand, and if what everyone is saying is true, it appears to get much worse.

I support this motion for that reason. Also I assume if she doesn't answer here it goes to the actual vote? Tr0llis (talk) 15:07, July 24, 2015 (UTC)

My whole view on the situation... you guys probably won't care, but who cares anyway?

When I look at this impeachment “forum”, I guess you could call it that. There’s a lot of things I see wrong with it. Some problems come from circumstances which Up has addressed. Also there’s something I’d like to address. For one I’m not a crony, I’m Up’s friend. Now I know someone is gonna use the whole “Well crony actually means a close friend or companion. So by proxy you’re a crony.” If you go by the literal dictionary definition than yes I guess I’ am a crony of Up. But we’re not using the wiki “crony term”. The wiki crony term is way more negative, usually a person who follows someone blindly. I don’t follow Up blindly. She is however a friend. One of the few people on the wiki I will actively talk to, others are included. I also seem to be the only one she talks to actively. As she is usually quiet and away, or working on something else that’s occupying her time. Listen there are times where I have not agreed with Up and I’ve had to reign her in. Either to tell her to “cool it you know” or “yeah this isn’t something you should get caught up in.” Just trying to be a good friend and look out for her.

Now this whole situation. This entire dumb drama situation can be put on me. I went on a whole rant. Now my rants are not serious. Completely not serious at all. Especially the entire caps lock rants. Where I go “FUCK YOU [insert person and thing here]!” They are completely non-serious and should be taken as a joke. As it’s a concept I’ve stolen from a Podcast I listen to and a subreddit a browse through quite a bit. It’s where people go on an inconsequential rant, where they over exaggerate a situation to the nth degree. To make light of it. It was mainly done to make fun of the more serious people who rant online and as well use caps locks while doing it. That’s what I was doing that caused this whole day time television drama event to occur. I was making fun of the whole featured timelines situation. Calling things “super cereal” and “fucking dumb.” It was done to make light of the whole situation. Over exaggerate it. But I guess Poe’s Law is a huge bitch ain’t it?

The thing I find most hard to believe is people saying I should’ve been kicked for it. I agree I should’ve been kicked. Had you all not seen and watch me do this multiple times. People have seen me do this rant before. A lot of people of this wiki have. Hell, people have joined in and one right after me. So I find it bullshit that people have claimed to have never seen it happen before. Because I know those users who say they haven’t were definitely present when I did one. Plus I first time I ever did one of my dumb rants Up did kick me. She straight up told me no caps lock spamming. Then I went on to tell her what I was doing. Explained what it was. What it was from. She got the idea. So she let me do it. So I guess this can all be attributed to me doing my dumb rant which is not serious, being mistranslated by others. Which later led into this whole dumb drama situation. I still it very hard to believe that many people have never seen me do at least one of those dumb rants.

Even if I do say this thing you guys will look at it and try and make your side more valid or something dumb like that. I dunno to be honest. This is just what I saw to become the root of the problem. That problem that day being me doing my dumb rant. As for the Ace situation I don’t find a problem with the guy. She actually doesn’t have a problem with him, just his constant talks of space. Which I know seems weird especially with his current situation. He can get on my nerves, but so do some of the guys and gals on here. I don’t hate you guys though. I consider you all good friends. I just don’t take anything I say in chat serious. Cause I don’t take myself serious. I know what I’m saying is dumb. But maybe you guys don’t, I dunno. Poe’s Law is a real bitch I guess.

.....  Because I'm Just... Too... SSSWWWEEEEEETTT!!!   8:07 AM PST July 24, 2015

Are you really going to make the argument that when you spam chat with curse words and ad hominem attacks against people Scraw, it's just a joke? By that logic maybe the people who vandalize the wiki were just doing it ironically, maybe Ratc made a sockpuppet for a laugh. But that's not how it works in the real world. If you're going to curse someone off you can't just brush it off and say it wasn't serious.

"It was mainly done to make fun of the more serious people who rant online and as well use caps locks while doing it". You have it all wrong, you're one of those people. You're one of those people who rants online in all caps. You do it so often that you're known for it, and no one thought it was a "joke". In fact, they thought it was annoying.

It's spam, harassment, and not funny. So if you're actually not like that for real, and it was an attempt at humor mimicking your "subreddit", you should cut it out. Fritzmet (talk) 15:43, July 24, 2015 (UTC)

I agree, Fritz. To me, copying behaviour can go bad real fast. Thus, we should definately see the chat logs, and make up our minds. But I am still in favour of impeachment. Spartian300 (talk) 20:01, July 24, 2015 (UTC)

I agree with fritz, especially the part about the cursing. They've all seen it before, but I have not, so I can't argue. ~Tao64

I agree that there should be a proceeding to remove Upvote from the TSPTF. The reasons listed by Edge and others should be sufficient enough. I myself have been present for many of the events.

01:58, July 25, 2015 (UTC)

I do not believe that Upvote should be impeached. Yes, I understand that people (namely Spar) have branded me a crony for being her friend, but I simply believe that impeaching her over one, potentially accidental, incident is completely insane. Especially without a proper hearing from Upvote herself. We must have a hearing of some form before we carry out a potential sentence. I would write more right now but I am feeling rather ill and my computer is lagging out

The only thing is this is not just one single issue, it's several. And half the problem is Upvote refusing to answer questions or testify in the first place. This is that trial, and she has yet to say anything. This is probably the best you're going to get anyway, this wiki isn't know for having court cases. The entire point though of going to the talk page first is to basically function as a court mind you. Fritzmet (talk) 02:23, July 25, 2015 (UTC)

While I must say that Upvote can definitely improve as a member of the TSPTF, I think it's a little harsh to impeach her right now. But let me move on to what I mainly mean to say, and this is that the accusations of bias against Ace and Spar are not really true. Especially in the case of Spar. In the cases that Spar was banned/kicked by Upvote it was justified. Spar gets mad very easily(I've had a lot of experience with that) and that anger often turns into full caps lock sentences full of insults. If Up or someone else then throws an insult back Spar goes into full victim mode.

Ace is different. While there is definitely some bias from Upvote towards Ace, it isnt as massive as Edge and Ace have said on this page. Ace has made a LOT of map games on MGW and almost always links his map game in chat a lot. Promoting your map game is one thing but Ace just slaps you in the face with it. Up does have a tendency to jump in on people criticizing Ace or Ace's idea but, again, it's not as massive as claimed by Edge and Ace. She doesn't bully Ace, she doesn't come on chat just to annoy Ace into leaving. She dislikes him, certainly, but it's not like she hates him with a passion.

<font color="Navy">Hail Sean! (Get a free potato here) 18:31, July 25, 2015 (UTC)

It goes Far beyond what you have seen here. Several times Upvote has jumped on "Anti-Ace" bandwagons that she has no reason to be. If I get mad at ace because he messed up my timeline, that's different. Upvote attacks Ace when she has no part in things. Furthermore the motion here comes with a host of other issues. #PraiseRoosevelt. 23:09, July 25, 2015 (UTC)

Tech disregards half of my post. What Tech listed is to be expected with a person with Aspergers; not to mention Upvote was one of the first to know along with me, that Ace has Asperger's.

Consul Ioshua (Talk) 17:22, July 26, 2015 (UTC)

I would also like to point out, Tech, that I have rarely seen you on chat. Thus, you haven't been present for a lot this. Furthermore, I too have Aspergers, and just say I have autism. I guess I can be a bit annoying, but also, I rarely insult first. Also, some of the insults upvote made were very offensive, and it has been pointed out that TSPTF members should be above it. In fact, when a newbie joined chat, Upvote just came out and insulted me.

Frankly, both me and Ace have been the victims of abuse by Up. I also feel that we must have a court of some kind to handle this. Something like this can't be let off, as Up will just continue picking on Ace and me. All in favour of a court case?Spartian300 (talk) 17:38, July 26, 2015 (UTC)

For once, I agree with Spartian and the other users whom have stood up in our behalf all have a good point. Upvote has had a bias against me, and I am certain that this bias also applies to other users belonging to the social group called the "Upcronies", and other users in chat are ALL witnesses to this.

To top it all off, Josh speaks the truth. He and Upvote were the first to know of my medical condition, and Josh has been kind enough to stand up to me. In fact, when I wanted to leave the Wiki, Josh was the only one, along with Survivor, and several other users that have helped to ensure that I return. Otherwise, if not for them, I would have had never returned. And remember that time when I linked literally the ENTIRE conversation in chat? Well, unless you have forgotten, Upvote did not even bother to look at Fall of Man: The Cyber War, and all because she thinks that every game I make is space, and there are some games that I never had anything space-related, even though they all flopped, and then again, the same applied for space games. But moving on, Upvote needs to go, and that is that. As a moderator, she is just.....abusing her powers, and using anti-Ace bias against me. And while I can admit that she has been a good contributor, she has NOT been a good moderator. AADN, Protecting America from Potential Theats ( Stop Terrorism Today!) ( CIA Offices · FBI Offices) 01:48, July 27, 2015 (UTC)

Ace, you are an acquaintance of mine whom has gained my respect. But as an acquaintance, I must tell you something.

Not everyone you meet will like you. It's just the truth. If Upvote doesn't like you, then it's her deal. She can choose who she does and doesn't like.

And also, Upvote, or anyone else, doesn't have to view your games. So please don't complain about that. In fact, I rarely look at stuff that links outside of this wiki if it's posted in the chat.

Cheers,

Look, UR. The issue you presented seems to make it look like Ace wants upvote to like him. Far from it. So please, stop defending up!Spartian300 (talk) 08:43, July 27, 2015 (UTC)

Spar, as already said above, this is the court trial. Speaking of which we should probably just go on to the vote now, before this becomes some sort of argument between Spar, Ace, and UR. Fritzmet (talk) 13:23, July 27, 2015 (UTC)

@UR, disliking somebody does not mean constantly picking fights with them and teasing their projects publicly, in front of them, in chat. May I also say that MP and Scraw had to step in to stop Upvote's hostile words against Ace.

I agree with Fritz, we should carry on with the vote before this becomes a flame war.

Consul Ioshua (Talk) 15:16, July 27, 2015 (UTC)

Spar, you threw me under the bus for no reason. So don't get mad at me for defending my friend. I'll be more than happy to start throwing you under the bus, if that's the way you want to play the game.

On a side note, we shouldn't make a motion until Up is present. Her computer got stolen.

Cheers,

I would like to present a series of screenshots from today's activity on the chat regarding Upvote.

Exhibit A Exhibit B Exhibit C Exhibit D Exhibit E (referring to Upvote and LL's platonic relationship) Exhibit F (a poem written by Josh to United Republic) Exhibit G Exhibit H (death threat from RexImperio to United Republic, potential sexual assault threat against Upvote) Exhibit I (nursery rhyme written by Scraw and directed against Upvote and Lynx) Exhibit J Exhibit K (Nathan1123 insisting on what Upvote gender is) Exhibit L (RexImperio writing about sexual assault on Upvote) Many of these screenshots are disturbing on multiple levels. Death threats, sexual harassment, general lewdness of people we are supposed to trust. This behavior is outrageous. I cannot believe that no one has brought this up before. I have lost an astonishing amount of respect for Scraw and Josh today for their obscene behaviors. I am sacrificing any future I have of ever gaining any power on this wiki, but after seeing their behavior today; I'd prefer not to be a part of that.

Cheers,

Let me ask you a question, How is any of this relevent to Upvote's Blatant abuses of her rank and power? If you feel so offended by these issues, bring them up to the TSTPF at a more relevent time. #PraiseRoosevelt. 01:26, July 28, 2015 (UTC)

None of these screenshots have anything to do with the case though. Fritzmet (talk) 01:29, July 28, 2015 (UTC)

Answer: This shows the lewd behaviors of the mods who havebeen made out to be the heroes of this wild pursit of impeachment. It acts as a display of character against those who clame Upvote is abusive, whilst being abusive.

What's even more disgusting is that you are letting this slide. But one kick and the entire wiki wants to impeach someone!

Cheers,

Most of those screenshots are obviously written in a sarcastic/joking tone.

I can't say I'm fully privy to all the information of the events that transpired, but everyone should agree that the above acts are both appalling and inexcusable.

More evidence against Upvote and apparently someone sent it to me.



The behavior on both sides of this argument is abhorrent, to be honest. I'll look into this. I'm honestly very disappointed in what I've seen so far from both upvote and the prosecution as far as chat logs go. When I get the time, I'll talk to both sides on chat. Expect updates in the following days. Until then, let's be civil. Crim de la Crème 07:05, July 29, 2015 (UTC)

Consensus is rather obvious, and no response... Hmmm.

Don't much care if it was sarcasm or not - that was NOT ok.

Rex, blocked for a while. Scraw... what the hell? At best, that is conduct unbecoming. Were you not an LT, you'd get one too.

Lordganon (talk) 09:12, July 30, 2015 (UTC)

Been kinda busy lately, and I just managed to get my computer back. Sorry for the late response, I'll write up a full rebuttal when I have the time. Sometime today or tomorrow, hopefully. But I would like to say that that chat log is entirely fake. I have never said "fucken" (I like my curse words spelled correctly, thank you very much). As much as you don't believe that I do, I normally have a reason before I kick someone. The reason I kicked Edge is because he seemed to be harassing LL (and I would have kicked him too, if he wasn't just kicked). I wouldn't kick someone in PM just because "I'm a mod". I also have never told someone to kill themselves. That is something that I promised myself I'd never do, since I'm quite suicidal myself. I also heard via Facebook that people admitted that they faked it in chat (can't really confirm this, sadly). Are your points really so flimsy that you need to make up fake evidence to support them?

New Ural and Wrto12
On the Battle of Britain Map Game when Wrto12 has posted, so has New Ural 2 minutes later, which might be coincidental or (most probable) logged of as Wrto12 then logged on New Ural. It seems that the 2 players are 'working together' (once Britain and the other one is Australia). Also he only contributes only on Battle of Britain, which a new user would probably contribute somewhere else. Also New Ural does what exactly Wrto12 says, which is strange. He accused Candiesrgood and Kaori of sock-puppeting and accusing them of "implausibility". Furthermore he claimed that Candiesrgood map is his property, which is ovesiously not. The 2 players must be stock puppets, I say ban him permanently. Awesome history 28 (talk) 13:18, August 1, 2015 (UTC)

No one is going to be banned permanently without some sort of investigation (hopefully). If you can present enough evidence that one is using the other account for a clear advantage, then ask an administrator to conduct an IP check with Wikia staff. Only then will it be appropriate to issue bans, at the administrator's discretion. Tr0llis (talk) 14:31, August 1, 2015 (UTC)

I've removed NewUral from the game, may soon issue a ban. Wrto is gonna get a warning. Cheers ~Tao64

I don't anything about Map Game to be honest, but NEVER judges someone did sockpuppeting or something without any clear evidence like what Tr0llies has said. In fact, ALL parties that involving in 'witch-hunting' can be warned instead. FirstStooge (talk) 15:13, August 1, 2015 (UTC)

This evidence isn't really evidence. No action can or will be taken. Wikia does not run IP checks unless there is proof that someone is using a sock with actual malicious intent.

Wrto12 being racist on chat
http://gyazo.com/38f0fc66e92172430e5e1dac30a40d0f

Wrto12 is being racist, I just said Europe's median age was higher, then he started saying about how Asians are scum and everything. ~Candiesrgood (talk) 06:16, August 2, 2015 (UTC)

Candies, I'm an Asian myself (Southeast Asian for exactly), but no matter how bad the behaviour of one user on this wiki, that should be settled personally or simply ignore it. Especially, you only have one proof about his behaviour, then we can assume Wrto12 is simply immature enough to understand about respecting each other. TSPTF can not do anything about it since he is doing only once and not attacking other areas of this wiki. Candies, you must refrain yourself, don't answer any provocation from another and let the bad one ever be the bad one until he/she get enlightened enough.

CrimsonAssassin
CrimsonAssassin is an admin on the Alternate History Wiki who has displayed an inability to effective moderate, administrate, or otherwise effectively lead the wiki in a positive and constructive manner. When a long train of abuses and usurpations of authority and justice, for the purpose of Crim’s own personal gain and bias, impede the ability of this Wiki’s writers to effectively communicate their ideas, write alternate history for the advancement of the genre and its literature, and sow the seeds of despotism in the government undeserving of a community of our standing, it is this Wiki’s inalienable right to throw off such an administrator, for the betterment of this wiki’s works and all future security. As such, we the people of the Alternate History Wiki, formally impeach the user CrimsonAssassin, and call for an immediate fair and timely review of his administration, before calling forth a vote for removal in one week’s time.

This impeachment is rooted in CrimsonAssassin’s past and current behavior, including his use of administrator powers to silence and censor discussion, ban people he disagrees with, and generally abuse these powers bestowed upon him by the community for his own personal and political gain.

On numerous occasions CrimsonAssassin has used his position in chat to even frame certain users. This is most evident in his permanent banning of the user Tr0llis, without any substantial evidence. Despite the fact that CrimsonAssassin had no proof of any wrongdoing by Tr0llis, and there was even evidence presented to the contrary; statements by Wikia Staff stating Tr0llis did nothing wrong and screenshots of chat debunking Crim’s testimony, CrimsonAssasin banned his noted adversary without conducting an appropriate or thorough investigation. Other administrators noted that they were unsure what the ban was even for, and were told a myriad of lies by CrimsonAssassin to justify his actions, even lying that other administrators had possessed the evidence in question, which did not seem to exist. This event clearly illustrates that CrimsonAssassin is willing to ban people he disagrees with and dislikes, even permanently ban, without any evidence proving his side of the story. It is inappropriate for an administrator of this wiki to conduct such an action, and then break the wiki’s own rules by lying about the event. Ultimately members of the Wiki Brass had to step in to stop CrimsonAssassin here, and undo the bans that he had made.

This event also illustrated CrimsonAssassin’s tendency to ban people for speaking in chat in disagreement to him, and his tendency to use administrative powers to silence and censor others. Many different people spoke out against CrimsonAssassin’s ban of Tr0llis, and he subsequently banned those users with little remorse or regard for their concern. No administrator should use their powers to silence users who disagree with them, or censor discussion to make it more one sided. Additionally “disagreeing” should not be a bannable offense.

CrimsonAssassin has used his moderator powers for political purposes as well. This is most evident in the nomination of Mscoree for constable, when CrimsonAssassin banned Mscoree and many of his supporters on made up charges. CrimsonAssassin’s fabrication of charges, is well noted, but yet went unpunished. As a result Mscoree’s nomination severally dropped in public popularity. Whether you think Mscoree was a good choice for constable or not, the fact that an administrator was able to curb public opinion using his administrator privileges shows that CrimsonAssassin possesses and uses an unfair edge in political elections. As user CookieDamage noted, “I've removed my vote. One of the main reasons I voted yes was because it seems Ms has changed and become less disruptive and troll-ish.” This is an example of how this event managed to change the outcome of the vote.

The entire chat log of the incident can be found here, and shows that Mscoree and his supporters actually did nothing disruptive or trollish, but were punished as such. As users on the nomination stated:

Congratulations Crim, your set up is succeeding. I guess it's coincidental that this event happened during Mscoree's election, with the only witnesses being the people opposed to him in said election. Read the complete chat log, as you can see Mscoree essentially did not do anything. When he spoke it was mostly to tell people to calm down. Meanwhile Feud uttered several personal attacks and curses at Mscoree, Tr0llis, etc, and all Fed (the admin) did was "^". Then you wonder why Tr0llis said some things back. Strangely Mscoree is the one who is punished, along with all of them. Let's review how that happened. ‘’’Crim joined chat and after only a few seconds, without even hearing what had happened, banned Ms, Tr0llis, Harv, etc. Monster Pumpkin, an admin even said it seemed like Mscoree did nothing wrong.’’’ In the chat logs themselves Tr0llis is called mature, and Mscoree is said to be the one lessening tensions, not escalating. Later I joined chat, having read the chat logs, and when I asked about it I too was immediately banned. Crim then proceeded to plaster a heavily exaggerated story on here for the sole purpose of embarrassing Ms and destroying his election. Heavily bias and inappropriate, in my opinion it undermines the entire office of admin. The sad thing is it works, and no one can stop you.

Why is no one taking heed of this? I was banned for "cursing" even though the log shows I never cursed at all. Feud cursed an excess of a dozen times, for comparison. Not that Crim would know, since he banned me without even listening to what I had to say after about five seconds on chat. Note I wasn't there for the last part of this event, I left chat and joined back some thirty minutes later, said hello, and was banned. As for banning Ms it seems like Crim claims that three/four people other than Feud immediately asked him to, but he seems to keep switching his story, and no one knows who these people are. Strange, because at least six people were asking for Feud to be banned.

These logs show that CrimsonAssassin is willing to ban people and lie about the reason; banning someone for “cursing” when they did not make a single curse, for example. On the other hand it also shows his bias toward certain users, and his inability to fairly distribute punishment. Those that CrimsonAssassin agreed with or approved of, such as Feudalplague in this example, were spared, despite committing crimes that Mscoree and Tr0llis are claimed to have committed.

CrimsonAssassin has a long and colourful history of an inability to control his actions on chat. Frequently he will kick and ban users simply over disagreements. For example, just today he has banned two users for the heinous crime of not agreeing with his line of thinking. In discussions he will resort to ad hominem attacks and censorship to maintain his position and make certain that he gets his way. His generally drastic and extreme bans are commonly not consulted with other TSPTF members. Furthermore he has developed an extreme and visible biases against certain users, often giving more leniency to people he holds in high favour, and giving more strict and extensive bans to those he does not. Whether you hold these users in high regard or not, this is something that should be frowned upon, especially by a person considered an elite and experienced member of our community. This kind of action and behavior hinders the common users right to discuss ideas and concepts openly. Unless CrimsonAssassin is willing to be more impartial, fair, and just we believe that he is unfit and unable to continue with such a position.

When on chat, although lately CrimsonAssassin has been less active, he is known to use personal attacks quite frequently. He is known for arguing on chat, during which he has insulted many users who disagree with him. Noted adversaries Mscoree and Tr0llis for example, and others, have been said to “contribute nothing to the wiki”. He is known to lose his cool often, especially because of Principia Moderni III, and it affects his ability to treat others with respect on chat.

In addition to CrimsonAssassin’s abuse of administrator and moderator powers for the purpose of selectively censoring or controlling chat, CrimsonAssassin has also shown a general disregard for the rules of Wikia in his own right. We know that CrimsonAssassin has used other accounts to sockpuppet, for example he has logged in as his brother on occasion (he admitted to it here). This same account, which we know CrimsonAssassin has used in the past, was used to nominate his main account for promotion, has been used to target LGBT wikis with insults and attacks, and has been used to circumvent bans on other wikis. On the Fallout Fanon Wiki for example CrimsonAssassin once logged in on this other account when his main was banned, to argue with the admins there about the ban (he even signed the edit as Crim). Regardless, these events do not necessarily affect this wiki, but rather show CrimsonAssassin’s ability and tendency to break the rules of Wikia in general, despite holding the office of an administrator.

In conclusion, if we are to allow CrimsonAssassin to continue to exhibit behaviors of bias, censorship, untrustworthiness, and unfairness and extensive bans, we need to take a serious look at where the wiki and the TSPTF is moving towards as a community. We need to address bias in the TSPTF as a whole, as many in said organization hold Crimson Assassin in a high regard, and will look down on this intervention simply because of who it is defending. If we are not willing to reprimand a person who has done the community as a whole wrong, then our administration does not represent or cater to the needs of the wiki in any way. We encourage other Constables, Lieutenants, and Brass to read over this message carefully, and decide whether his actions at all symbolize the qualities a good Lieutenant should possess. We wish for CrimsonAssassin to review this and take a good look on his own actions, his morals, and his responsibilities, and decide whether he wants to uphold the standards and morals of the TSPTF and change his ways. If he is willing to change his ways and act like a proper Lieutenant, and work towards an unbiased and impartial view of the wiki and its members, we would love to keep him in his position, as we believe people can change. However if he is to stand with his actions over the past weeks, months and years, then we implore the rest of the wiki and the TSPTF to take affirmative action. CrimsonAssassin is a substantial and appreciable contributor to our wiki, but that does not make someone a good moderator. Although I respect Crim and his work, I believe that this is an issue that must be brought up. Thank you, users and TSPTF alike, for considering.

~Fritz,  Toby2: THEY CALL ME Mr. Awesome!!!

Also, I would like to point out that Fritz and Tr0llis were Wiki banned for chat behaviour that, in my opinion, was fairly drastic and at the most should be a mere chatban  Toby2: THEY CALL ME Mr. Awesome!!!

Was given approval by other mods to unban them Toby2: THEY CALL ME Mr. Awesome!!!

As discussed in this text written by me and Toby, I was banned for "harassment" against Crim when I disagreed with him in chat. Then when Tr0llis asked why I was banned, and said I did nothing wrong, he was banned too. Not only did neither of us do anything ban-worthy, Crim's attempts to write this off as "harassment" by us is alarming. Multiple admins cleared my unbanning thankfully. Fritzmet (talk) 19:32, August 3, 2015 (UTC)

To be honest back when this was going on i wasnt in the best state of mind and i apologize its been a rough year over here. Ive already wholeheartedly apologizaed to Trollis and extend apologies for my actions to the rest of the group but i do have a point to make here.

In all honesty the attitude of the group at the time commiting the act that Crim banned them for (when i was around) was essentially Harassment in the eyes of Myself and Crim and whoever else (the names are escaping me since its been awhile since this happened.) It did in fact warrant a ban. All it did was cause issues and overall caused severe hostility between various users, and in my case i was having severe issues with Trollis, Fritz, and friends at the time and overall i requested crim in private for something to be done cause i was literally at my wits end with them. They were the only people here i was having such issues with and the attitude that was usually given was one of superiority or trying to be subversively annoying. And hence after pretty much a year of dealing with it on top of my personal issues getting the best of me at the time Crim responded to my request and gave them a Ban.

Overall though, i think you guys are being a bit ridiculous here. This is the Internet, and you people are taking something super seriously that doesnt need to be taken as seriously as it is being done. This is not congress, This is not a buisiness, Our Brass are people who do this by their own volition. These people for all intents and purposes are Volunteers and before my summer hiatus, these volunteer administratiors (of which all of you who have a position of power on here are to some degree) do a pretty thankless job in most cases, And then they have to come onto chat and deal with a personal issue between users on a chat box that more or less allows total free speech within reason.

I will reiterate the point. THIS IS THE INTERNET. This is not a democracy, this is a website run by volunteers that many of you take way to seriously. The internet is not subject to fairness and the coddling you guys get in the real world. This website ive noticed is a place for some to hang out, some to escape from a bad home life, for some to share and develop their love of all things historical and ahistorical. So yeah guys im giving a request here, keep this place like that. Keep this the safe haven for all the walks of life weve seen come through here. Stop with the trollish attitudes, stop with the violent issues with eachother OF WHICH I AM ALSO GUILTY, and just for the love of god grow up.

This place in general needs a general attitude reform and the people complaining over chat bans, and kicks, and a wiki ban or something. As much as some bans may be unfair, just cause you perceive something as relatively unfair to you does not mean its unfair to everyone. Sometimes people are annoying and need to be given a break, other people sometimes cannot even get along and require kicks or bans. In the case of the situation earlier this year between me and trollis we probably both should have been banned for uncivil attitude going both ways in some cases. All in all i know im asking a pretty steep deal here, but for real i came back due to me noticing the whole upvote debacle that is currently happening. You people take something internet wise way to personally and need to learn to deal with it and not impeach someone cause you may be relatively pissed you got banned over something you may see as not your fault when it relatively well could have been.

This whole impeachment in general should be taken down and i beleive Crim deserves a final chance to prove he can be a good administrator. On top of this i think certain users who are usual propogators of these impeachments needs to stop baiting administrators into positions where they do in fact look back because in many cases said users have spent an hour or two pestering them and being all around a pain in the ass to get them to the point of being angry and irrational. In almost all cases where i have blown up (as well as other users and admins) alot of it stems from being baited into controversial topics, or being buttered up into an angry state and then screenshots are taken when youve essentially pushed the buttons of a guy until he finally blows up and go at you. Everybody is at fault here and its really just a fault with the relative attitude and atmosphere we have going around here the past year/year and a half

So, this is a kind of Great Purge for TSPTF admins? And, who is the one that taking Stalin's monstrous and paranoid role now? Is this simply a matter of work ethics or contains a sort of personal hatred or feuds on it? I don't know exactly for sure. You guys know exactly the answer by yourself. FirstStooge (talk) 07:11, August 4, 2015 (UTC)

Well, afrer reviewing it, I have to agree, something should be done about Crim. Stooge, you should know, both Fritz and Toby never really had much of a feud with Crim. Spartian300 (talk) 07:32, August 4, 2015 (UTC)

Feud that was just one incident. I realize that this is the internet and such, and you'll notice I didn't make an impeachment at the time. I specifically did not want to make an impeachment because I was mad about a ban. I made an impeachment when the bans just kept coming and coming, and I realized that at a certain point it was ridiculous. Again, I am not mad about that particular ban, and I understand that you apologized; I'm not mad at you nor am I trying to get you in trouble. In fact these incidents are done and over with. The reason they are brought up is to show that Crim has done this over and over. It is a series of events to show controversies he has been apart of, and the intent is not to reopen each one, but to be reminded of them.

"i beleive Crim deserves a final chance to prove he can be a good administrator" That's actually the entire point of what this is. This isn't a vote to remove him from office, just an impeachment, which is in of itself a call to give Crim a last chance.

@FirstStooge This isn't some sort of purge. As I said above the problem is not anything against Crim personally, just the fact that no administrator role should be used for malicious purposes. 13:49, August 4, 2015 (UTC)

First off, not a week - two.

Second... imo, most of those kicks/blocks, I'd have done the same thing. Doesn't matter if they were not the problem, if a general warning is made to stop, and it gets continued, it's your own fault.

Lordganon (talk) 11:35, August 9, 2015 (UTC)

I can understand kicking someone when they are told to stop and don't, but it's another thing to have an argument with someone and then just ban (from the wiki) three or four people, some of whom weren't even there for the argument. Fritzmet (talk) 14:09, August 9, 2015 (UTC)

This is just another case of Fritz throwing a fit over a ban he earned about a week ago. Took my time because it didn't merit attention then and it barely merits attention now. This 'evidence' of his revolves around things I did years ago, many of which on other wikis. Didn't even try to make a secret of it. The LGBT thing was not me, as I have said countless times.

LG basically says most of that I need to say. Warnings/chat kicks don't seem to get the message across. Not my fault you can't seem to get the message. That's why your bans ramp up.

You'll note that I banned you when I was moderating something I had zero stake in. But nice use of the bias card there. Baseless, but nice.

Crim de la Crème 09:02, August 14, 2015 (UTC)

I'm not throwing a fir about a ban a week ago, that's not the point. It's about how whenever you come on the wiki bans are issued, and usually for no reason, to people who weren't even there sometimes. And when a certain group of people is disproportionately targeted it's pretty clear it's bias. See the one example where Edge was the one having the argument, but you banned me, and then banned Tr0llis seemingly out of the blue. As for the LGBT thing, we have nothing to prove it wasn't you. Considering you've now lied about a large portion of your actions as an admin, I'm not sure your word acts as a very good source on the matter. But more importantly, the things on this wiki we do have proof of, and it's clear that there is a problem with the way you conduct yourself here. Fritzmet (talk) 12:33, August 14, 2015 (UTC)

'We don't have evidence saying it wasn't you.' Is this what I'm up against? Paper-thin accusations and meaningless banter? I knew this would be a waste of time.

Still, is like to hear more about how you think I've lied about anything. You're reminded that your supposed evidence is YEARS old and not even relevant anymore, but I'm curious to see what you can scrape off of the bottom of this proverbial accusation barrel you seem to have against me.

Crim de la Crème 14:18, August 14, 2015 (UTC)

And also those are literally the emails used to prove Tr0llis was innocent. I meant your evidence of why you banned him, because this screenshot is from way after the fact.

Hey. I have been banned from AH.com for, wait for it.....

Bigotry.

As some of you know, AH.com is very liberal. All I did was say that homosexual should stop trying to copy heterosexual lifestyles, as they're sorta opposites.

However, I didn't know that people would find it so offensive. I just wanted to come up with a new arguement in the whole debate, and instead, I get singled out as a bigot, and banned with no warning. Course it is my third ban, but I just don't understand why I am a bigot.

I was really enjoying myself in there, and now I'm can't even access the homepage. It just says I'm banned, and for life. I really wanted to fit in on it, but now, I can't. It's really very annoying, and I just feel like crying over the whole thing.

I have a mild case of autism and Asperger's syndrome, and have trouble with this stuff. I would really like some help in getting unbanned. Please? I will apologize for what I did if it offended anyone, but I didn't even get a fair warning. Please help me out. The username is Nocrazy. Spartian300 (talk) 09:30, August 8, 2015 (UTC)

Advice? Don't say things like that. Simple, imo. Past that, nothing we can do. Or, for that matter, you can do.

As for the "Why" of it... That would have gotten you a warning on here, too, followed by blocks if you kept it up. Near enough to the same reasoning.

Why is my chat ban so long?
Seriously, I know I made a huge outburst last night on chat, but I was having bad day baby sitting. My brother and sister were in a huge fight, and wouldn't stop. People were yelling and screaming and shit, and I was already getting annoyed at Toby BS about me committing Human rights abuse in SSS. So, while I sorta deserved the ban, why is it the whole day? I mean c'mon, why not the two hour ban like usual? What did I do? Spartian300 (talk) 18:54, August 13, 2015 (UTC)

Screw all of you
Seriously, all any of you people bloody do is put me down, and tell me I'm crap. I never win anything. At all. I have the worst luck in the world, and now my account is being deactivated.

Not because I lost a war. Because all of you just made fun and bullied me about it. Seriously, damn you all. None you bloody care about me. At all.

I put with this BS everyday at home, but no one believes me. They don't understand me at all. None of you understand me. Because you're all normal. And can live happy lives, not being let down by shit like younger brother who actively bully you, or not having any damn friends, or a girlfriend. I just wanted to fit in here, but instead, you all gang up on me, and now, with everything going on in my life, I swear to god. I am never coming back to wiki again. At all. And if I do, against my better judgement, I won't be coming back here. First AH.com IP bans me for life, now you all just bully me, call me a retard, and just won't bloody help me in anyway. I'm just some stupid idiot who embarrasses you all, despite my attempts to fit in here.

So, fuck you all.
