The sheer irony of this making absolutely no sense when you stop to think about the meaning of the words as a sentence.
I haven't checked to see if the domain VigilantSucks has yet been registered but this is not it.
Could you do me a personal favor and focus more fire on the wikilusers? If you want a go at someone over there, why not the Wiki insiders whose participation they so cherish and for whom the red carpets are kept ever close at hand? Off the top of my head I count at least three ArbCom members and two who ran but were never seated, one of whom runs the site . I'm sure I'm forgetting someone.
As I assumed was rather obvious, he sucks because he's clearly been told those people are off limits. This is why WO sucks.
There's plenty of material here about the resident WP pseudo critic vermin over there, much of it produced by me. I'm the reason we have a whole sub forum of dirt on Beeblebrox, exposing his true character. But the sad truth of that site is that those insiders rarely do anything truly worthy of note. Once you've profiled their true character, the analysis holds for years. If I was to highlight every time Beeblebrox tried to turn a promising thread over there into a sad plea for sympathy, and succeeded, I'd never have time for anything else!
Which is the hilarious thing about it all. Under the reign of Comrade Zoloft, they're sucking sooooo much wikidick, for no money at all. Vigilant is the source of much hilarity in that respect. Their one conceivable benefit to cosying up to Wikipedia, is day to day influence. Backlinks! Required companion reading.
Acceptability.
Yet Vigina was so consumed with jealousy and insecurity during my recent visit, he duly peed all over the walls, ensuring most of the new arrivals from WP ran back to WP, and the forum returned to the very small and very ineffective venue it has been for years. All those people who said they were glad I was gone by contrast, they were clearly WP shills, not genuine members looking for hard hitting criticism of WP.
Where are these cutouts now? Posting useful stuff? Posting anything at all? Were they even real people? Only Zoloft will know, and for obvious reasons, he will keep his remaining subjects in the dark, fed on shit. This is Vigilant's sad lot in life. He now has to be content with people who were so clearly involved in WP for the wrong reasosn, people like greenday, considering him part of the "we". And he has to bite his tongue. Has to take the small victory that their collective whining eventually got too much for Zoloft. It's
hilarious.
The payoff being that it is precisely because Zoloft realises Vigilant is his forum's one last link back to a time when that place was seen as a serious critic venue, he felt it necessary to back him, and soon after, give him his heart's one true desire, my ban.
The man is key to understanding why that place sucks the BIG ONE. Why it is a shadow of its former self. Neither fearsome outsider or influential insider. Neither required reading for Wikipedians or journalists.
So in that light, I'm suspicious of anyone who doesn't think it's the height of good Sucksery, to rub the once might and once fearsome Vigilant's face in the mess of his own making. Day after day. Year after year.
I mean for fuck's sake, they're so far from their original mission, THEY NAMED THE GUY THEIR #1 MEMBER.
And for what? His contribution is
what? People who can rustle up a profle pic of a guy who wasn't even hiding, are ten a penny. It's
not scary. It holds nobody to account, and they fucking know it. I said it. Broke it down in detail. Proved it. Did it so well, there were no objections. That's why they hate me. I
am more intelligent than they are. They have no recourse but to carry on doing this shit. Wittering about masks and bots.
Vigilant does it, posting profile pics, because that's all he
can do. The rest is just a bunch of very well worn and increasingly tired if not wholly irrelevant attack lines. He of all people should be aware of how Wikipedia is changing. He's the primary beneficiary in his little pond. Making sure VIGILANT doesn't feeeeeel vewwwwy vewwwwy saaaaaad is now what passes for important in their world. Just as the fake as fuck outrage of Molly is now of primary import in the wiki world.
This is why Vigilant wanted no part of my expose of Molly's block of Chris Troutman. The not so hidden POLITICAL CONTEXT. That and the fact that had he dared to mention it, Zoloft would have given him a whack on the nose with a rolled up newspaper. And the fact he hates to admit I'm a very talented critic.
I see the real issues with startling clarity sometimes. The benefit of distance. Not lying down with the dogs. Not seeing the monkeys in the zoo as if they were human people with human feelings. Because they aren't. Someone who thinks "the content on Wikipedia tends to be very high quality" as Molly said on the record, is not just delusional, they're fucking certifiable.
And Molly isn't a retard. So they're probably just deliberately lying because they're afraid the world will realise Wikipedia isn't the sensible left wing cure to the far right's adoption of pure bullshit as political speech. They are merely what happens when you give absolute nutcases like Katherine Maher control of what is and is not a fact.
My analysis of the Admins is showing the purge. It was real. It happened. Wikipedia did use to have a much healthier cross section of political opinion, where it matters. In the positions of power. The line managers. And that's what you need for the true NPOV.
Where was Wikipediocracy when all this was happening? Wittering on about a batshit lesbian power couple conspiracy theory and considering the fight against Trump to be for more important than the analysis of the day to day abuses of BASIC Wikipedia policy that benefit political POV pushers on both sides during such tumultuous times, as I recall. That's what happens when all you have that passes for true independence, is a VIGILANT.
Not so Vigilant, was he? He's either dumb or just another Valley lefty. He says so little, we may never know.
He's quiet about these things, avoiding matters of substance, because he knows I am watching.
Ready to strike at the heart of the man. Because that's my true skill. Horrible. Bastard. But never wrong.
I don't think I could be as good as I am eslewhere, as I approach the C's in my 80 day tour around the Admin Corps, without my daily fix of kicking him in the nuts and complimenting him on the pretty dress Zoloft makes him wear.
It is deeply satisfying work.
It is important work.
People need to know why they suck.
This is why.
If you doubt my analysis, offer a different theory.
