Wikipedia Administrator Boing! said Zebedee teams up with Wikipediocracy to threaten OberRanks
Posted: Thu Apr 15, 2021 8:39 pm
This was a real strange thread.
https://wikipediocracy.com/forum/viewto ... =8&t=11916
To summarise: Now banned user OberRanks messed with Wikipedia for reasons, and the Wikishitz are mad as hell at him. It evidently hasn't dawned on them that THEY ALONE are responsible for the harm done by people who take advantage of GAPING FLAWS in the Wikipedia model for reasons, such as the ability to get away with adding fake offline sources because Wikipedia is NOT AN ENCYCLOPEDIA and the dipshits spending hours obsessing over their watchlists are not EDITORS.
When faking a source is as easy as making up its details and hitting "submit", and when your chances of being discovered are entirely down to sheer luck, well, that's called a FEATURE.
Sort of like how semi-regularly producing toxic nappies is a feature of a baby. Unlike Wikipedia, babies serve a purpose to humanity, so we tolerate it. Unless they turn into Wikipedia editors, in which case, naturally, we should probably try to find a way to kill them in the womb.
As is sadly typical, there are a couple of utterly deranged nutjobs in the Wikipedia Administrator ranks who probably should have been terminated, who are particularly vexed about OberRanks, both coincidentally with the super professional soundiing usernames, Future Perfect at Sunrise, and Boing! said Zebedee. They're genuinely acting as if OberRanks has personally offended them, when in reality, all he has done is messed with a hobby website they are insanely addicted to.
Cut to the Wikipediocracy thread, where the insanity of Boing! is on full display. First thing to note, is how many times he says he doesn't wish OberRanks physical harm. Very unconvincing. But even if he means it, he repeats other vague threats that he really really really wants someone to do OberRanks some real world harm, if he doesn't stop messing with Wikipedia. Bizarrely of all, he thinks him saying that, will make OberRanks stop. Moron.
To educate those who maybe don't know, the sort of real world harm Boing! might be referring to, such as legal letters, is the sole domain of the legal owners of Wikipedia. If there is anyone on Wikipedia who is genuinely thinking about teaching OberRanks a lesson in some sort of personal capacity, they should rightfully be considered a clear and present danger to both the reputation and the finances of Wikipedia, and be banned by the legal owners, as a precaution.
And it is hard for me to say that, since it is clear from that thread that if someone does do that, then the prime suspect for who it might be who gave them the real life details of OberRanks so that they could carry out these ominous sounding threats, would be Boing! Since again, the very fact he feels the need to say, multiple times, that he doesn't want to give anyone OberRank's real world details, on a forum known for being inhabited by people who like to discover the real life details of their enemies so they can harass them, is rather unconvincing.
It seems a safe bet that if you PM Boing! via Wikipediocracy claiming to be someone who is in a position to do something about OberRanks, he is going to tell you who OberRanks is, and without making much effort to confirm that you are who you say you are and can do what you claim you can do. Which would be ironic.
These people, and by that I mean this sort of exceedingly long serving Administrators, are clearly mentally unbalanced. It's a fucking website. OberRanks didn't rape your moms, they didn't piss in your pool, and you are not a cop. The badge of your office isn't real. It's plastic. Fucking Mall Cops have both more RESPONSIBILITY and more POWER than your sorry bitch asses, and even they would look at this sort of thread and think, Jesus Christ, you fucking losers, and ask why you aren't simply following THE MANUAL.
The takeaway here is that, even though it is super obvious, and repeatedly drummed into their heads, that for ANY AND ALL SITUATIONS where a case of abuse of Wikipedia rises to the level of perhaps maybe needing to send some kind of official cease and desist or some other *real world* consequences, then your ONE AND ONLY JOB as a Wikipedia Administrator, is to pass the relevant details to ArbCom, and shut your fucking mouth, they simply cannot do it.
They want to discuss it, they want to be seen to be threatening people for harming what they see as their project, and on a scummy hive of iniquity like Wikipediocracy no less.
And they don't seem to mind that doing it allows people like me to point out how fucking insane they look, how mentally unbalanced, and therefore ask a genuine question - how the fuck are people like this, still Administrators?
The answer, as usual, is because scummy immoral people like Beeblebrox are members of the Arbitration Committee, the body that nominally ensures the Wikipedia Admin corps doesn't have any insane fuckers in it.
You would think the so called critics of Wikipediocracy would pick up on basic stuff like this and call it out when it is happening on their very doorstep, but you would be wrong.
