All The Tropes Wiki Project, Part VIII

[GethN7]

I don't see the bit in where John says "banning obvious nuisance users as the fucking parasites they are should be decided on a vote even though global bans have never been decided before like that previous but eh I have no spine and I'm letting this fucker run rampant all throughout my farm like he owns the fucking place and tries to make sweep broad changes to the foundations at which our farm operates with absolutely zero support annoying all our regular users and staff to the point where it is affecting their ability to even oblige the the obligations at helping me run this fucking shit but eh who gives a shit?"

He's also changing the status of support tickets on Phabricator. He's literally trying to dictate the pace of Miraheze. This is utterly fucking unacceptable.

I'm saying this to you now Brian. Ban Delta. Now. If john has a problem with it fucking direct him here and let him justify the opposite in countenance with all the evidence. I don't want to dictate to all of you how to run your farm especially considering how kind and generous you guys have been but I'm more than willing to step in if it leads to shit like this.

Seriously. This is becoming a pisstake. Take action.

 

Honestly, I cannot disagree. This DeltaQuad is becoming an asp in Miraheze's bosom. I get they like to micromanage everything and have power to change things for themselves, but Miraheze is set up as a top-down enterprise with staggered levels of control to prevent idiots from breaking stuff.

I know, I was staff at Orain briefly, and having broken some stuff in my time, it's a good system for Miraheze to use as well (especially their version of it), and no, I do not believe it would be better if every wiki owner could edit their wiki settings on a case by case basis. If you really want that, go indepedent, find a wiki host that hands you all the keys, or accept what you were handed for free and be grateful someone is handling that responsibility instead of yourself.

The way they are dealing with being told no is only making my recalcitrance to trust them with any level of power worse, and watching them make an ass of themselves because people don't like how they take for granted the trust they are given has me of the opinion they need to be, at least, stripped of any power at Miraheze for the indefinite future except as a regular user, or at most, a foot needs to meet their backside and they need to be made aware they are not welcome back.
