I've seen Ryulong do that to others, too.

Well it looks like Sandboxes now have to contain better content and no longer can contain test edits.





On a side-note, if someone makes usernames complaining you're a mean administrator, banning them WITH EMAIL BLOCKED is not the way to disprove that.

I think this is more evidence for my "Ryulong is a troll" theory. This makes my respect for him go up, not down! I wonder what the endgame is? Possibly bureaucrat, demotion of all other bureaucrats and admins, and then hilarity ensuing. Although there's no way he'd make steward/bureaucrat (I forget the difference) at present...

I'm not sure that he can do anything very interesting with checkuser, can he? At least not without losing it pdq.

He'd probably be another Jayjg in checkuser and Jayjg never lost his checkuser.

I can't find it at present, but Iremember that in the storm over Ryulong's RfA it was said that he wouldn't be a bad admin because many other admins would be watching him like hawks. wacko.gif

The Sandman Cometh …

I think they will have to invent a New Administrative Role Class (NARC) just for him.

Y'know, you can buy those brands of kitty litter that form easily scoopable clumps around the poopicles.

I was gonna say KittyLitterati, but that sounds too dignified, and he might get a big head about that. I'm sure we don't wanna see it if he gets a big head.

So howsabout ClumpChecker or PoopScooper?

Reading over all the points raised by the opposition so many months ago, in addition to the two previous RFAs and the points raised in those, I wonder if anyone is ever surprised by Ryulong's actions these days.

On some places I've seen if an admin is really bad, the admin gets banned. I think that needs to happen to people on Wikipedia.
Nathan
Good idea. That makes way too much logical sense though.

Users making account names like that are only causing trouble. They have no need to edit or email. Creating an account name with a request in it is just plain silly, and not the right way to go about things.

Yep, and it's surprising how quickly Wikipedia will move in this situation. Evidence.

Ah, but they won on a technicality because of their weird distinction between a ban and an indefinite block.
