I am still here Jaguar, and apparently ''still'' an imminent threat to the project :D

I miss the orange band across the top of the page for new messages, that was cool. There was like a pavlovs doggie thingy where you saw the orange and thought WooHoo !!!! I guess someone didn't like that either. (they thought, nobody loves me, so I'll make it so nobody else is loved either, or so they thought)
Hi Penyulap, I wonder if you might be able to help me. My recurring problem has just recurred, again. What is the best way to deal with it? Thanks and regards, ] (]) 10:05, 22 July 2012 (UTC)


It would be so cool if people could be *Forced* into not leaving en.wiki, then, as soon as en.wiki forked, every good editor would be sucked out from here and arrive in the new project all at once, like sci-fi or comedy, there are so many sketches that fit what I'm thinking of, but as it is, it's hard to go and find them all.

Jag, you should come to commons ! on commons, they call 'articles' 'files', and you can destroy HEAPS of them, they even have things called 'mass deletions', I've done a few, it's fun. :) although my time there is better spent on valuable additions like polandball and insect porn, with their undeniable educational value. Lemme show you some.

==Evilness==
Very important work there, but in some ways it suffers a few of the same problems, but in a way less so, because there is a occasionally-functioning de-sysop process (possibly), I think it must have been made out of fear that non-Americans might become sysops and need fixing ;) not like on en.wiki where everyone is assumed to be a fat redneck, (hmm, I should go read the official bias page, I seem to have a fuzzy recollection of some of the statistics)
Any chance you could do me a "The Evil Organization has been expecting you" or "Enter my evil volcano" in the style of ]?♦ ] 15:50, 22 July 2012 (UTC)


I'm glad that you and Pesky are still about, I can't visit her page easily, but it is good to know that she is ok and still kickin. I've been tinkering with my programming knowledge-base in the areas of robotics and so forth, useful things for a fork. I think wikialpha is cool, but I don't know that they could handle all of wiki if I asked PALZ to copy it. I like PALZ, I mean, I know he hates me and is trying to kill me, but honestly I get that a lot, and he does a good job of fixing up those space station articles, so it balances itself out in the end I guess. PLUS there is that corny movie Tron, which I have a copy of the newer one (must get the old one) and there is that nerdy 'tron guy' I know, but maybe that's cause it IS a cult movie, maybe people just don't know it yet. Hmmm, I kindof like it, the idealism, the god awful shallow villains, the power of the creator, the whole cyberworld thing, hmm, whistful thinking.

:Hi Penyulap. I completely agree with everything you said, and whatever decision you make, I'll support. Yeah I noticed that they got rid of the big orange band for new messages, I loved that! It was one of those things that made Misplaced Pages great, but all good things must come to an end eventually. I guess somebody thought it was time to a change and now they introduced in a new crappy notifications system.


:I think it's about time you should be unblocked, Misplaced Pages will be so much better with you around and editing. But then again this project is more or less doomed and too politically correct for people like us! Yes me and Pesky are still here, and Dr. Blofeld... and a handful of other good editors too, but I think we're all that's left! I haven't been on Misplaced Pages for months, I can't create anything anymore, and I can't expand on anything either without other people interfering...

:Commons? I'll check it out. I uploaded a few pics on there two years ago but I suppose people have got things like Instagram now where people can just look and mess about with photos in a more simplistic way. Yes it would be great if all the good editors could get transported from here to a new Wiki, a place where we could be our own bosses! Who knows? It might actually happen one day!

The way your body is working is normal, you're not meant to wake up until close to noon, and sleep about 10 hours a day which is more than most. It's just that everyone older than you doesn't realise it's normal and thinks it's something you do on purpose. If you have trouble going to sleep quickly I can help train you to speed the process.

:well I am thinking that to be fair to them I should try not to speak over the top of their heads and actually address their concerns. Sure there are the linguists and empaths who see through the simple screen as easily as you do, but to be proper I should address the majority rather than the minority, or actually address ''all'' of them which is easy enough to do, but not right now, I don't have energy due to low thyroid hormone levels and I don't have meds to keep me awake, so maybe later is better, probably after a smack from Auntie as well :)

I recommend you take at least six months and wait for the impact of your SPI and block to wear off, maybe contribute to admin-related areas a little more, ''then'' go for the mop again.

You're free to do as you please, but I honestly don't think you're going to see much more support unless you wait a substantial amount of time before running again.

::::::Look, I agree with you 100% on these things, however they are trivial issues to address. As for 'don't think you're going to see much more support unless you wait a substantial amount of time before running again' I would agree 100%, we disagree only upon the definition of 'substantial'. The RfA closed in about 90 minutes was it ? I'd say hmm, (scratches chin) 4 hours at the most in a new RfA would show a greater percentage of support than the 1 positive, one Neutral Vs Negative and Joke votes. Naturally I would talk ''to'' my critics, rather than straight over the top of their heads. I've illustrated their complete inattention to meaning and the the weaknesses of the process. Actually it was probably a bad idea as it highlights how blatantly easy it is to become an admin as much as how badly the process needs an overhaul.


:Oh yes, I remember Denis Brown mentioning he started that project mainly because of myself, in fact I was second to join. My name was erased by an office employee, but not as an office action. Thank you for letting me know.
::::::Of course, if the new one is left for more than a day or so, then you ''really do'' have a RfA on your hands. With an actual discussion on actual merit rather than the usual superficial congratulatory bullshit. Provoking a REAL discussion is your uncle Penyulap's favourite trick, ask the admins who and said "I'm having a problem with my sockpuppet's userpage, what should I do ?" Like walking into the Police central headquarters wearing a mask, moneybags in hand and saying "Excuse me officers but my getaway car won't start, could you please help me ?" and The question is not 'is the getaway car a movie prop' or is the sockpuppet against any policy at all, the question is how long admins are going to edit war over my sockpuppets talkpage, or whether the officers will resort to shooting each other to resolve their dispute over jumper leads or push starting the getaway car. Till this day my sockpuppets userpage is locked to stop them and I'm not about to ask for it to be unlocked so they can start all over again. <span style="text-shadow:#c5C3e3 0.2em 0.2em 0.2em;">]</span>] 07:44, 25 Jul 2012 (UTC)
::::::::I don't think any of RfA's weaknesses factored into your failed RfA, Penyulap, and those who opposed were not inattentive. In this respect, I must echo Pesky's comment below mine: "it's vitally important that you stop thinking of them (and reacting to them) as being stupid, disruptive, deceitful, two-faced, and that stuff." Just because somebody does something that you don't agree with, it doesn't mean they were out of line; the only thing that ''can'' be determined is that you ''think'' they were out of line. And there's a difference between somebody being out of line and somebody thinking somebody's out of line.
::::::::As for the "substantial amount of time" concern, I must point out that I've been participating in RfAs for over two years now, and have seen that, in general, no matter how qualified a candidate is, if their most recent RfA was less than six months ago (or longer, depending on certain circumstances), their most recent RfA will fail. It's sort of an unspoken rule at RfA to wait at least six months to run again. It shows that you possess patience and that you're not power-hungry for the tools. Trust me, I speak from experience here; when I was a newer editor, I always aspired to be an administrator. Which, in its essence, isn't a bad thing, but I took it a little too far. I edited Misplaced Pages in a way that I thought would impress RfA voters, not necessarily in a way that completely helps Misplaced Pages. Now, I wasn't ''harming'' Misplaced Pages by any means; I was simply working with the sole objective to impress RfA voters rather than improve Misplaced Pages. After I failed my first RfA, I waited four months before running again. And I failed the second time. That's when I realized that one should edit Misplaced Pages to improve it, not to race to the admin job.
::::::::What I'm trying to say with that little personal story is that patience is a key quality that people look for in potential administrators, and the ability to address people's concerns (even if you don't agree with them) is also very important. The most important thing I hope you'll take from that story is that you shouldn't be so eager to be an administrator. It's not much different from being a regular editor, with the exception of the extra tools of course. Rather than focus on becoming an administrator, you should take some time to improve Misplaced Pages and to work on the problems brought up in your first RfA. And only run when you are absolutely sure you'll succeed. To get the opinion of an experienced editor in this field, I'd suggest going ] next time you wish to run. I think you'd make a good administrator someday, but you must focus on addressing the concerns of those who opposed your RfA first, and you should take your time doing this. Regards, ]]/] 21:33, 27 July 2012 (UTC)
:::::::::I agree with a good deal of what you have said. I will take it on board and consider it. You make one glaring huge mistaken assumption however. I am more effective and enjoy ''NOT'' being an admin, and do my work a lot better. I choose above all to help with the non-sister wikipedias that have a chance to fix all the fundamental problems once and for all. Rendering all arguments moot at once by system wide changes is the miracle cure which is no miracle cure, it's fact. But I'm here anyway in 2012 because the new projects need more people to create a workload to keep me occupied. I'm not saying your painting me as an antisocial in a power hungry rush, but you are making mistaken assumptions about my clear intentions and desires. I don't care for the role, but I would genuinely work towards it if that is what my colleagues wish. They see the skills and want to utilise them to offset the other stuff. I'm just a bit piffed sometimes as I don't always get help with the problems I am having trouble coping with. People do not so much want to help me as they want to line up at the complaints department and critique me. I mean, I appreciate your insight and will take the statistical analysis as gospel, that IS useful, but I won't expect you to roll up your sleeves at all. <span style="text-shadow:#c5C3e3 0.2em 0.2em 0.2em;">]</span>] 05:25, 28 Jul 2012 (UTC)
{{od}} If you're alright with not being an admin, why are you so eager to run again? I can see that I may have made a mistake in my judgment of you, and I apologize for that. But you shouldn't be following the will of your colleagues, you should be following your own will. See, one of my colleagues nominated me in my second RfA, and my first instincts did tell me to reject the request. But, like you, I also wanted to do as my colleagues wished, and I ''did'' think that I was ready, so I went for it, and failed. Since then, a few of my colleagues have expressed interest in nominating me for adminship, but as I personally don't care to run for the position, I gently turn them down. Again, I'm not going to stop you if you run for RfA in the near future; in fact, I may support you, and I wish you luck should you choose to run again. And I can understand being angry about not getting help with problems; I've come across that in my time here, as well. I may not be the most experienced person here, and I've got some things to deal with in real life, but I have some free time on my hands and I'll be around at least once a day for the next month or two, so if you need assistance with anything, you can look me up. ]]/] 14:11, 28 July 2012 (UTC)
:I'm not 'eager' to run. I wasn't 'eager' in the first place. I recognise that I can or do a lot of that kind of stuff anyhow, I should probably stay out of ANI altogether, because I am well, I may say the crowds occasionally frustrate me because they don't read things first before commenting. Whatever. But my calls are always good. If I am making a call that is a slam dunk it's a slam dunk, if I'm making a call that is wrong, then it gets discussed to death and argued over by people saying I was right and then they go off arguing about policy and the subject is not on me anymore. Like when I shoved a sentence into blockpolicy, or redirected my sockpuppets userpage. Sometimes I scan ANI and I see which absolutely outrage me, a saint of an editor and people are *****. I probably spend about as much time as bushranger did studying the matter, but my conclusion is precise. The only thing I don't like about that editor is his userpage. I can't pimp it :) Actually I mention a sockpuppet in that discussion, who says he's from India like Vivek Rai, but has never once spoke with anything but a British American accent. Which reminds me how much I love strange accents and they force me to ask everything about the person's background, I can judge how long someone has been living locally by how much of it is left, calculated against what lifestyle they have and what opportunities they have to talk to locals (factory workers take decades to lose an accent, but shopkeepers lose it faster, and schoolkids are the fastest of all.) There is everything to see in a persons text you see. Sometimes I can't answer specific questions and I know it, so I don't make any judgements, but other times it's such an outstanding clear sample I can bet the farm and walk away. I haven't made any mild or serious misjudgements yet, if you look at my art it's found homes on the best editors pages, often people who I've met because they were dragged to ANI. wow I talk a lot, where was I? Oh yes, no it was a ''long'' time ago that someone said I should run, and who it was that said it blew me away and left me lost for words because I knew long ago that he has such incredible insight, he is a major advisor and uses Jimbo's page as well as many forums, and said I would be good to detect gaming. Which is fair enough, but I didn't know what to do, I hadn't thought of it at all before. But I guess after so long it lingers in my mind where I could make a difference. I give it a go in a few places for people who were having trouble at ANI, like Eddadio and the others, and I know how easy it is for me to spot fakes, so I figure well, yeah, because I look at what other people are misinterpreting, and think well if I blocked Eddadio he may well thank me just the same if I'm wrong who knows when you can apologise like I can. If I choose unblocks as well as I choose to whom I give my art, then nobody would ever get past me. I could open up a ] like Medwed's, and confirm puppets are in fact puppets all day long with 'explain in 100 words why you should be unblocked' and people wouldn't have a snowflakes chance to get past it. ''unless they were genuine'' and then I could examine the case (I wrote the article as an alternative to arguing that policy needs clarification (or outright change), or the insanity of making it into an essay for everyone to ruin). I do figure that I could do a good job in some places now, so when two more people said they wanted me to run, I said well ok. Anyhow the time thing is a different matter, some people take a long time to change their thinking, but for others it's like scientific method where you leave out all the sentiment and emotion and that is how I am. So it's only a matter of finding fault with my logic and explaining it to me and I'm straight away, 'that's fair' or you are right, and so on. Doesn't take a certain amount of time for me to go from wrong to right, that is an offence to reason I do not understand, but maybe it applies to other people somehow, like me critics for some reason I cannot fathom. The secret to being an insufferable smart ass like me who is always right is to admit instantly, sincerely and comprehensively the moment you realise it. That way you can get straight back to work being right all the time. Any other strategy fails. Anyhow as for a RfA, obviously I wouldn't gloss it in anything if I did it again, and I'd clean up some of those people's concerns. Give some lovely examples people can enjoy and all that. Easy to engineer it for a proper and thoughtful result that everyone would enjoy (rather than just critics and yes/no men. Easy as. The only advantage I can see though is just that I wouldn't have to convince everyone that I was right before I do something, they could either accept it, or argue amongst themselves without me, or if I detect anything is amiss, go rapidly into stuff the shit back into the horse mode :) Like . It's not a matter of ''time'' to admit mistakes, it only takes as much time as it takes to explain something. Use scientific thought to explain something, or use a commonsense approach, or ask a favour or whatever. I think the good thing about me is the same best thing about Craigboy. No matter what we disagree on we're always willing to talk something over if asked to. Even if he went 5RR with me everyday of the week against consensus I'd still kick anyone's ass who has a go at him, because he always will explain and discuss.

Although your intellectual skills are awesome, you still need to spend probably several months brushing up on some of the interaction skills. You do tend to lose patience with people who ''genuinely can;t'' see / do the stuff you do, and it's vitally important that you stop thinking of them (and reacting to them) as being stupid, disruptive, deceitful, two-faced, and that stuff. (Remember ]; that could be your biggest failing.) Bear in mind that it's ''not their fault'' that they can't see the detail that you see ... and that the vast majority of other people also can't see it. Also bear in mind that, on occasions, it ''is'' possible for you to make a mistake on the detail, by failing to see something that "the other type" ''can'' see ... and try to work very, very hard on learning to see what they can see. One thing which you could really do with, for your own sake as much as anything else, is a really hefty injection of tolerance and understanding ''of other people''. This you can learn. (You're a smart student; you can learn almost anything if you really put your mind to it. But you'll '''have''' to put your mind to it; you need a ''burning desire'' to learn it. Think of it as a bit like learning a brand-new programming language.) Work, work, and work more. Maybe in six months or a year. But you'll never get it without addressing those issues, as those are the ones which turn people against you. ] (]) 06:57, 26 July 2012 (UTC)

==Bringing you the season's explosives==
Hi Penyulap. It seems our paths have been crossing a little bit recently and since that's likely to keep happening, I thought I'd try and clear the air. I'm happy to answer any questions on my behaviour, explain things in detail from my point of view, if you think it might help. Would you mind if I sent you an email on this matter - so you don't have lots of people interupting and telling you what you should think of me? (To those who did, I do appreciate your kind words)

:You are in no way interested in improving yourself, your motivation stems solely from wanting to avoid my precision commentary of why you are acting in an incompetent manner. The only two options that I will give you is go work somewhere that I can't see you, or want to change your bad behaviour through a desire to improve yourself for the sake of self improvement alone.

== Warning ==
:::Calm yourself Pesky, everything is ok you don't need to worry that everything will explode when you turn your back, well actually, umm, what is a better way to put penyulap into that sentence (scratches head), no seriously this matter is fine. There is a pleasing little read on this page ] for an unsettled matter that needs to settle down before I return to help them work together again, no chasing going on. I don't actually ever think that long blocks or indef blocks ever work, and I don't believe they are even applicable in any circumstances, sure if enough people say so then it is to be respected and upheld, but it's better even for problem people to leave their talkpage open and clean up the mess in one place rather than chase them all over the project through SPI in the hope they will eventually learn enough to outsmart you. It's nuts. It's a lot easier to watch them in one spot, and it does work, and it works well for anyone who is in any way marginally social and forms social ties. Besides which, as you mention GabeMC, then the two of us are hardly the driving force behind the 'GabeMC is causing a slight disturbance' movement. Did Jimbo sign up to that movement, I'll go check in a minute, I know a lot of people came onboard to defend BWilkins, and that is a sight to see in itself, considering Jimbo chastised him recently. <span style="text-shadow:#c5C3e3 0.2em 0.2em 0.2em;">]</span>] 03:43, 27 Jul 2012 (UTC)

The biggest fools fight over the smallest things, I grow weary of trying to help them. Even the smartest people can barely see what it is I am doing, it's hard for them to follow. You need to use the hammer of Thor to help calm down the most outrageous cases. When I swing that sucker people can't see the objective, the method, the precision, the purpose, the result, they can only see one thing, a 5 stories tall hammer blotting out the sun as it swings overhear through the project and smacks the McIssue into something resembling silence. Yeah. I love my job. Completely thankless and universally misunderstood, what more could a humanitarian ask for. Give them the certain knowledge that a can of whoopass is waiting if they misbehave further and from someone they cannot possibly combat even with all their speeddial lackeys, hell I even gave both sides a persona to close ranks over. I was surprised and pleased with that part. Unite the warring factions in one more way. Meaningless in the end. I grow weary of it. My grasp of game theory is well known and I utilise it in everything I do, but in the end I think that even my friends do not want me to assist with the largest problems. The small evil within wants to go and give a wikilove gift of gasoline and matches and say due to popular demand you are free to burn the project to the ground, but I never submit to crossing my internal moral restraints. I don't use awards or art to tease anyone.


== Grump ==
It is interesting to me that I can now see that the interpersonal problems other editors face have now become so complicated by 'the way we do things' that the old way of doing things is in itself used against the project by the new kind of threat. It is interesting that the clearest shortest route to a solution is resisted by the old guard. I don't mind of course, as the old guards are no fools and trust me enough to allow me to test out the new solutions. But I offer this critique to them, who else is stepping up to the plate to take on the largest problems ? Is it not true, that whatever the reasons are for not fixing the largest problems, however well intentioned your motivations are, the fundamental criticism is that you are letting the largest problems go unchecked. I'll also allow those problems to go unchecked now, I join you in your ranks of inaction, if there is another McIssue I won't swing the hammer of Thor in quite such an alarming manner, (and don't need to now the job is done anyhow). I have seen and learnt the dynamics of why you don't take up the challenge to address these issues. Why threads sprawl and drag at ANI for weeks. I can fix the problems as good as anyone and better than most, but I have little interest in it now. I'll help the Eddadios who come and ask me for my help and thank me for threatening to block him, I'll tell people like Acadēmica Orientālis to shut up because he talks to much and accept his thanks for my kind words, I'll step in to catch the rage and anger at the small quiet talkpages like Mother Teresa, and offer compassion which prevents that stranger from ever vandalising the project, who thanks me for my understanding and argues that I am not an idiot. I enjoy to do this because I genuinely care for all these people. It's enough for me, and you'll have to offer public requests and support if you want me to do more. <span style="text-shadow:#c5C3e3 0.2em 0.2em 0.2em;">]</span>] 04:11, 28 Jul 2012 (UTC)

Besides which, I don't think you know that on Jimbos page, when someone started laying into BWilkins, someone I've never particularly liked at all, it forced me to close ranks. Because when push comes to shove, I close ranks and protect my colleagues against the outside threat. It's only after everything is back to normal I go back to flushing their head in the toilet (in a rhetorical way). Considering the threats lately to this place, I'm starting to get even more of the fighting to save it spirit. Weird.

I hope there was no change left over, I hope you spent the remainder while you were in there. He's like oh, I think I spent it all, let me check if there are some coins left, and he opens his wallet and gives me the money, and we joke some more, and I never bother for one minute, not even till this day, to check my bankbook at all.

::So SPI doesn't work for me at the moment because I cannot tell how much of which reports or information they want to see, and I'm damn well not going to paste up in public a how to guide for anyone, and I'm damn well not going to paste up a thesis for this editor who is just going on and on and on ''trying'' to subvert policy. He seems to think that because someone on his bank robbing team stole a bagful of status quo votes in front of a lot of other editors who were very upset over it, he can provide the illusion of support for the idea that they have now got so far away from the scene of the crime that they should get be allowed to get away with it. It's laughable. The law doesn't give up on anyone and neither do I. Other editors have not forgotten, they have said quietly and once their position on the matter, so as far as I am concerned, they can either get a major authority to sign off on the matter and say they can keep the stolen !votes, or they can approach the people who are upset at the theft and ask nicely if they may keep the !votes (you never know it could work, and if I was the one doing the asking you can bet it might) and if those people say, that's ok, you can have them, or if they voluntarily returned the cash and put it on the table, ok then, it would be forgive and forget time and lets not talk about it ever again. But using socks to ask me to sign off on a deal that says oh, keep the money it's ok even though people are upset over it is just ludicrous. Giving up is an absurdity. I don't understand what the statute of limitations in their jurisdiction is, but in mine, if people are still upset over the issue, then it is still an issue and I will not be silenced. Whatever, I lost my train of thought or bank robbers got it or something. Lols, bandits got it.

== On species ... ==

This is kinda a response to your email, in a way, but also possibly applicable to a heap of situations, and may (possibly) benefit some of your stalkers and so son, so I'm bunging this here for you.(Besides which, I'm so used to using wiki-markup now that I find myself using it inappropriately in emails, and then have to go all through and correct it all ... heh!)<p>You know what I am; I'm a ], with a bit of autie-savantism, and I've been heavily involved with animal interactions, training, rehabbing, and all that stuff, for a very long time. A very long time indeed ... I can't remember a time when I actually got on better with people than with other species. Because, as a youngster, I infinitely preferred other species to ''Homo sapiens'', and because I'm a learning-freak-type nerd, and can get wholly engrossed in subjects which appealed to me, I studied and studied and studied any other species that I wanted to be able to work with and communicate with. Books on behaviourism, field study, study of two-way communications, herd / pack / tribe structures, heirarchies, etiquette, body language, other communications, and so on. For quite a lot of species. Masses and masses (hundreds, maybe thousands, of hours) observing, internally noting, ''watching'' without interacting, just so I could ''learn'' how they ticked). At the beginning, I just ''wanted to know'', obsessively. Because I ''cared'' about them. I never cared that much about ''Homo sapiens''.<p>So ... Because I wanted to work with animals (specifically horses), I considered becoming an equine ]. But, by the time I was looking at what ] I'd need, I'd become self-aware enough to know that dealing with the animals would never be a problem for me ... but dealing with their ''owners'' could be a real challenge, and, to be a vet, you have to be good at dealing with ''people'', no matter what they've done to their animals. So, instead, I decided to become a riding and horse-management instructor. That's actually much easier; all it needs is that you really know your subject and can put it across. Surprisingly, there's not much individual human interaction required!<p>But that also gave me the opportunity to begin to learn about humans; by teaching humans how to interact successfully with equines. To become an effective interpreter in that, I had to at least start to learn how humans worked, because it was never instinctive with me, it didn't come naturally, and I simply ''didn't know how to be a "normal" (neurotypical) human''. (That might ring a lot of bells with autie-types: feeling that you "don't know how to be a human"; that you're failing somewhere.)<p>It wasn't until I'd become a lot more mature that I twigged to the fact that, if I'd been able to ''study'' any other species I wanted, in order to be able to communicate effectively with them and interact with them in a way which would enable them to accept me as being "one of them", that I realised that I could choose to do exactly the same thing with humans: change the way I looked at them, and think of them as being "just another species" whose methods could be studied and ''learned''. Bingo! I wasn't born "knowing how to be a horse" (or a cat, or a dog, or a cow, or a goat, or an etc. etc. etc.), but I'd been able to learn how to bluff my way along in it sufficiently to be able to "fool" other species into accepting me as a social companion. Gods, it was hard, though! All those other species, I ''liked''; and I'd had over two decades of really ''not'' liking ''Homo sapiens'' very much. ''H. sapiens'', in my experience, were for the most part intolerant, unjust, deceptive, cruel, bullying, back-stabbing, spitefully-gossipy, character-assassinating, thoroughly nasty pieces of work, with some exceptions. And now I had to make an effort to "study" them!<p>It turned out to be worth it. But I always have to be aware that I'm never going to be totally and naturally fluent in "human", any more than I could be in horse. I do, however, have the advantage that humans can read and write. I don't have to be in the same room with them in order to be able to communicate. I can bluff my way along an awful lot better on-screen than I can in person; but it took years of study to find out what is "species-normal behaviour" for ''H.sapiens''. <p>P.S.

:Ok, the thinking past each other thing here is understandable because you are, understandably busy. The people who you feel I am unable to get along with are inevitably people who have serious personal problems which are preventing that from happening, every bit as much but usually more than any lack of skill on my part. For every argument the slapjacks came up with in the RfA, there is almost in every case a serious personal problem that they are having, not all mind you, there were some correct things. In every case, in EVERY CASE, that is Pesky in every case that people are having trouble with me there are other editors who have the same problem and opinion I do about that person or problem. I should write the problems up one by one from the slapjacks and the ok ones, and address them one by one. Not for me, I don't care, and I do not care less about being an admin, because what on earth is the difference ? I do not want to kick ass, but I can kick ass better than any admin here, as I am today. What on earth do I need a tin star sheriffs badge for when I can help people as it is using respect integrity and compassion ? I have no inadequacy issues that I need to compensate for. People want me to take over the job that they would like me to do for them, and that is fine, I do not mind to help when asked. The issues that other people are having with policy, or consensus, or they are too lazy to read are the problems I can't fix by myself. I can't interface with SPI, I can't run an Arbcom case, I can fix a lot of things, but there are some matters that aren't going to settle themselves until people get off their ass and help just a little bit. If they want to assist there, then of course I will help and put through a brief proposal which is impossible to stop so that everyone may have their say. Plus, I might even be outrageous enough to let people know well in advance so that they can slam dunk the whingers and address the concerns that have been raised. I'm happy enough to help people, but if people are making big requests of me then it's more likely to work if they help me too. <span style="text-shadow:#c5C3e3 0.2em 0.2em 0.2em;">]</span>] 04:55, 27 Jul 2012 (UTC)

:::::As to whether the user has harassed you, I can see that in a certain light the amount of attention the editor has paid you could be viewed as harassment, though the first time you appear to have brought it up is at the sock puppet investigation. I have many editors who spend that much time talking to me, yet I appreciate them and do not feel harassed by them. The line is in a different place for every editor and unless you make it clear that you are feeling harassed, then you cannot expect the editor to know that they have crossed that line. Once you made it clear the line had been crossed, I posted to the editors page and told him to back off. Two different issues, two different responses.
:::::Now, I'd like to draw your attention to a similar situation, where you are on the other side of the coin. When you are told by an editor that they feel you are harassing them, you should take that into account. So, for example, when a person says they feel harassed by you, making light of the situation with is a VERY bad idea. You may not see that you are harassing the editor, but because they FEEL harassed, you should adjust your behaviour so that they should not feel that way. ]<sup>TT</sup>(]) 10:33, 27 July 2012 (UTC)

Particularly bearing in mind some of your comments on various people not putting in any effort, not researching, not reading, and all the rest. Maybe you should take a break from editing; or at least notice when other editors are getting very fed up with you. You also need to check whether or not any fresh edit '''is''' actually backed up by the original source before asking for a citation, and appreciate when other people are simply trying to improve the flow and readability of prose.

:::Thank you for agreeing with me that you should indeed stop what you are doing worm. I do not mind people returning to my page, I do not want anyone to feel unwelcome under any circumstances, however I find it impolite that I've been forced to use such extreme language in order to get you to stop. Later, when someone else wants to help you listen to what I have already tried to explain maybe we can try again to assist you to do a better job, but give it a rest for now. Auntie Pesky is upset because I have used such language, in my own defence it has finally worked without having to resort to me asking at a drama board.

:::Pesky, per my last paragraph, and that he finally (oh lord the relief) has got the message the problem has vanished. When was the last time you saw me get upset or act in a selfish fashion Pesky ? there is ''always'' a good reason, and I'm sorry it has had to go this far to bring relief.

:::Bish, (sitting back from the keyboard) (took a good 5 minutes) well, I can't say that I feel ''that'' much better for the 5 minutes but it did help somewhat, but I do feel a lot better that I have one less problem for now, so that is a load off. Maybe I need one of those stress things, or if you my friends give me a way to let you know where the stress is coming from without people saying I'm making a list. Something that you need to know Bish, and Pesky, and my good stalkers, and you will not believe or understand and it's almost futile that I tell you, but maybe there are some that will understand, and so I mention so that they can better formulate help, time is different in my perception. It doesn't work for me the same way it works for you. you have a linear focus I find, but I do not. If you read my userpage, it is precisely the same no matter what point in time that you read it from. Go back in the history, go forward in time to you the reader years from now reading these words to you, and it is the same page and the same message. It only strengthens in a way, as the path flows. To 'give me a break' is to simply solve any one problem that other people are insisting I help with, or to help deal with a problem editor or editors that I am dealing with on behalf of others. Take worm off my shoulders and I can stand up straight again, don't you see ? I am here again.

:::GabeMC has been splashing gasoline from one end of the project to the other, I've been assisting him to tone it down, and it is working. The strategies that I have been using are unorthodox that is, well yeah what am I saying they look like I landed from another planet yes I admit that freely. I would be happy to discuss in private the strategies and co-ordinate with anyone in good standing if they so desire, but as to what I am doing, the answer is has way too much detail unless you want to listen for hours because the strategies have so many paths and markov chain calculations and I don't know, go read game theory in wikibooks for an hour and come back so there are some shortcuts to an explanation, The strategies I use are not the same as you guys use, they aren't like IF THEN GOTO by the old books, the people causing trouble at least provide me immense comic relief when they attempt to understand my strategies to stop them, because their reasoning is so immensely ludicrous. and no matter how often they fail in their attempts to go against policy they fall flat on their ass because none of my strategies for dealing with moving targets are based on fixed strategy. Templates, docs, wording of policy, all that stuff is static, but my solutions are turn based. Go read ] I'm serious, at least give it a scan through ok ?

:::Argh. I can't tell you guys where I am at without giving away the game to the opposition. you need to hook up or something if you want to measure properly my ''real'' state. I have, and use so many personas to assist it's too hard for you to tell if you don't just ask. Asking me if I am ok would work perfectly, but I am afraid that possibly you may not listen to me. Does {{Audio|Palz pawns pesky.ogg|help=no|this}} sound like I am ok, or does it sound like I'm a little neurotic as an actor and I'm being hassled by a stand-over-man who cuts me off short ? You are looking at the artificial persona which is required to get the job done, it is ''supposed to'' deceive the people who need to be deceived in order to quiet them down. I tailor myself to the required mask to get the job done fastest. Although some are pretty much me, like on the mother Teresa talkpage, that's just me and just compassion from one human to another. I can give you plenty of examples of different masks, but it's all TLDR, but just ask. 60% of the work is already done on GabeMC, and seeing how nobody was stepping in to stop the rampage, mostly because they were in a state somewhere between horror and awe, well of course I helped out. You guys think I am doing this for what purpose ? because I want whatever case it is, and God's honest truth I don't actually know who is wanting which way around in the whole thing. I don't know if GabeMC wants Capitals or small letters, it's rather funny, ok it's a LOT funny but it's true and if you have a look I show no clue as to that part of the problem. I am only addressing the the friction, basically the entirely broken relations between so very many editors. but hey, please, seriously, you guys want that job, it's all yours, say the word and I'll leap at the chance to have nothing more to do with it, much to the horror and despair of the many editors of the article.

]Cheers to the Chinese space program which has now overtaken the USA space station program. The USA program launched 1 space station on it's own (spacelab),.. whereas Tiangong II is the second space station that the PRC has launched on it's own. So, once again there are two manned space stations up in space, ISS and Tiangong II. There have been two stations in space before but not for a while. Back then a manned spaceship traveled between the two as a robot arrived at one ! those were the days. Would be nice to see a deep space space station run by China and Russia together.

Do you have a concern about this editor ? try the new 'Penyulap Ombudsman Commission' (P.O.C.)

If you are having a dispute with this editor, you can make a complaint to the P.O.C.

  • All complaints to the P.O.C. must be made by email here for your privacy.
  • The P.O.C. Consists of Thomas Moore, PALZ9000, and Penyulap. To prove the commission is completely fair and impartial, three additional editors who are not Panyulap, are chosen by Penyulap to serve on the P.O.C.
  • If you don't receive acknowledgement or a response to your complaint within 12 to 18 months, feel free to send a reminder by email to the commission.
  • If you find yourself blocked for the duration of the complaint, do not be alarmed, this is standard procedure and it's for your protection.

Of course he is. They are soon to introduce a new admin power whereby an administrator questioning the action of a peon, can prevent the peon making any further edits until the peon acknowledges a message as written by the administrator.
No block will need to be made, just by coincidence the peon will not be able to edit until they accept the message as dictated by the administrator.
I'm sure this will help to make sure that... something? --Demiurge1000 (talk) 02:11, 4 May 2013 (UTC)

I am still here Jaguar, and apparently still an imminent threat to the project :D

I miss the orange band across the top of the page for new messages, that was cool. There was like a pavlovs doggie thingy where you saw the orange and thought WooHoo !!!! I guess someone didn't like that either. (they thought, nobody loves me, so I'll make it so nobody else is loved either, or so they thought)

It would be so cool if people could be *Forced* into not leaving en.wiki, then, as soon as en.wiki forked, every good editor would be sucked out from here and arrive in the new project all at once, like sci-fi or comedy, there are so many sketches that fit what I'm thinking of, but as it is, it's hard to go and find them all.

People like this far too much

Jag, you should come to commons ! on commons, they call 'articles' 'files', and you can destroy HEAPS of them, they even have things called 'mass deletions', I've done a few, it's fun. :) although my time there is better spent on valuable additions like polandball and insect porn, with their undeniable educational value. Lemme show you some.

Don't know what this is, there are articles in 90 languages, but there is not one in English to explain it (shrug)
get yourself a passport and visit this article

Very important work there, but in some ways it suffers a few of the same problems, but in a way less so, because there is a occasionally-functioning de-sysop process (possibly), I think it must have been made out of fear that non-Americans might become sysops and need fixing ;) not like on en.wiki where everyone is assumed to be a fat redneck, (hmm, I should go read the official bias page, I seem to have a fuzzy recollection of some of the statistics)

I'm glad that you and Pesky are still about, I can't visit her page easily, but it is good to know that she is ok and still kickin. I've been tinkering with my programming knowledge-base in the areas of robotics and so forth, useful things for a fork. I think wikialpha is cool, but I don't know that they could handle all of wiki if I asked PALZ to copy it. I like PALZ, I mean, I know he hates me and is trying to kill me, but honestly I get that a lot, and he does a good job of fixing up those space station articles, so it balances itself out in the end I guess. PLUS there is that corny movie Tron, which I have a copy of the newer one (must get the old one) and there is that nerdy 'tron guy' I know, but maybe that's cause it IS a cult movie, maybe people just don't know it yet. Hmmm, I kindof like it, the idealism, the god awful shallow villains, the power of the creator, the whole cyberworld thing, hmm, whistful thinking.

Peons makes me think of warcraft II, you click on the Orc Peon too many times, he tells you 'my tummy fells funny' and then burps loud and long. Penyulap ☏ 05:12, 4 May 2013 (UTC) 05:12, 4 May 2013 (UTC)

Hi Penyulap. I completely agree with everything you said, and whatever decision you make, I'll support. Yeah I noticed that they got rid of the big orange band for new messages, I loved that! It was one of those things that made Misplaced Pages great, but all good things must come to an end eventually. I guess somebody thought it was time to a change and now they introduced in a new crappy notifications system.
I think it's about time you should be unblocked, Misplaced Pages will be so much better with you around and editing. But then again this project is more or less doomed and too politically correct for people like us! Yes me and Pesky are still here, and Dr. Blofeld... and a handful of other good editors too, but I think we're all that's left! I haven't been on Misplaced Pages for months, I can't create anything anymore, and I can't expand on anything either without other people interfering...
Commons? I'll check it out. I uploaded a few pics on there two years ago but I suppose people have got things like Instagram now where people can just look and mess about with photos in a more simplistic way. Yes it would be great if all the good editors could get transported from here to a new Wiki, a place where we could be our own bosses! Who knows? It might actually happen one day!
I'm still here if you need me. :D ☠ Jaguar ☠ 19:36, 11 May 2013 (UTC)

Just to let you know..

You have been mentioned at Misplaced Pages:Missing Wikipedians. XOttawahitech (talk) 19:01, 17 May 2013 (UTC)

thank you, that is very kind of you, and that is a heart wrenching list for so many reasons. When I look at the date I think wow, has it been that long ? Then again, I look at the ISS article and it looks more like I've been gone for a decade or more :D that article inspires me to make a space wiki, to bring alive all the fantastic ideas that so many friends had/have for the article, but I have to work towards the bigger goal of a better place for everyone, and so that's what I try to do. Penyulap ☏ 18:16, 18 May 2013 (UTC)
Hi Penyulap, I guess you already know that your entry was removed from wp:MW the next day after I added it. Some discussion on the topic of blocked editors on Missing, which you also probably familiar with took place during my time there at:
Wikipedia_talk:Missing_Wikipedians/Archive_3#Can_blocked_editors_be_listed_as_missing.3F
Wikipedia_talk:Missing_Wikipedians/Archive_4#Definite_word_on_blocked_editors
Wikipedia_talk:Missing_Wikipedians/Archive_5#Blocked_editors (there was also earlier discussion o0n the topic in archives 1&2).
To my dismay I felt I had to stop editing Missing, but hope the page swill survive, Ottawahitech (talk) 01:07, 20 December 2016 (UTC)please ping me

For your caring work

I think Ottawahitech doesn't know of this award (or may not like it), perhaps a talkpage angel could let him know ? Penyulap ☏ 05:34, 22 Jun 2013 (UTC) 05:34, 22 June 2013 (UTC)

Inactivity

Hi there, and during my editing, I've come to notice you, and I just can't understand why there is talk page access but is blocked, is there anything admins have to decide on? Zince34' 16:14, 21 June 2013 (UTC)

And, why are you blocked anyway, for 326 days? Zince34' 16:14, 21 June 2013 (UTC)

What Thom said :) Penyulap ☏ 05:03, 22 Jun 2013 (UTC)
Well, then, why talkpage access? Zince34' 06:55, 22 June 2013 (UTC)
Why not? Talkpage access during a block is the default option. It's removing a blocked user's talkpage access that needs a reason. Bishonen | talk 16:26, 23 June 2013 (UTC).
So, even after being nuked, you are still a indirect member of WP:AWARDS, right? Zince34' 04:46, 24 June 2013 (UTC)

Bishzilla appreciate great artwork

Thank you very much little user for creating excellent Shakespeare Bigfoot image so little MONGO could receive well-deserved award! bishzilla ROARR!! 16:19, 23 June 2013 (UTC).

Fine artwork indeed Penyulap! Exceptionally excellent. I have enshrined the artwork and the award atop my userpage and there it will reside in perpetuity.--MONGO 17:18, 23 June 2013 (UTC)
Thank you, you are both so kind. You're most welcome. Penyulap ☏ 17:38, 23 Jun 2013 (UTC)

That reminded me about that scratchy noise from the cupboard, I found this strange contraption, I wonder who may wish to take care of it ? (the hamsters are well-trained). I think this is the most important award especially for protecting the entire community. Penyulap ☏ 18:52, 23 Jun 2013 (UTC)

I wonder if a talkpage angel could place this award on Bishonen's talkpage for me. thank you. Penyulap ☏ 07:20, 24 Jun 2013 (UTC)
Pen, I'm dumbfounded, that's the most magnificent barnstar, nobody could deserve it. Thank you very much. I guess there aren't so many angels around this time of year…. the poor little hamsters are getting all worn out… I guess I'll have to fetch it myself! Bishonen | talk 20:58, 24 June 2013 (UTC).
I believe nobody could be more-so. You're welcome. There are still countless angels, and migration may be the issue. You should see how many there are on commons ! I think the fewer angels left here on en.wiki are spreading thinner every year. Those camsters are intriguing though, I too thought they would tire, but after watching them without a break for 19 hours when I first put them there, all I can surmise is that they rest when we're not looking and not listening for the squeak squeak squeak that can be heard by those of extra-ordinary hearing. Penyulap ☏ 08:35, 25 Jun 2013 (UTC)
A night sky of barnstars for that stellar apparatus, as I noted in this edit summary of a comment on a page where you can't even post. I hope there is a way for you to get unblocked and dance the 10 billion year messy and messier dance with the stars again. That barnstar is amazing. ---Sluzzelin talk 01:08, 26 June 2013 (UTC)

Thank you Sluzzelin, that is humbling praise indeed which leaves me almost speechless. I am glad you enjoy it together with us. Penyulap ☏ 11:00, 26 Jun 2013 (UTC)

Pen, I'm getting e-mail complaints here that the camsters have changed the barnstar landscape and put ordinary barnstars' noses out of joint: "No other barnstar even matters anymore. Penyulap has ruined "normal" barnstars for the rest of us." :-) Bishonen | talk 22:07, 26 June 2013 (UTC).
That is a problem I didn't expect. I spruced up some userboxes which is ironic as I don't use userboxes, except two, one of which points out that I don't like userboxes which is ironic because it's a userbox pointing out that it is ironic I don't like them. Maybe it's a sign of things to come, because if I can, I'll do for online encyclopaedias what I have done for userboxes and barnstars. Totally pimp them, much to the amusement of the amused. Penyulap ☏ 08:45, 27 Jun 2013 (UTC)
I saw the barnstar on Bishonen's talkpage, is it OK if I give it to people (acknowledging it to you) please? Thanks, Matty.007 16:13, 13 October 2013 (UTC)

No thank you Jaguar, I'm fine. If you like, you could hunt down my last three? barnstars. I don't think they'll make it to my userpage without an angels help. That would be lovely. Penyulap ☏ 06:12, 30 Jun 2013 (UTC) 06:12, 30 June 2013 (UTC)
That's fine Penyulap, I'll add those last three barnstars to your userpage. Regards ☠ Jaguar ☠ 16:57, 1 July 2013 (UTC)

Whoops, sorry I mean these ones. Two of the ones you put there were for other people. These two go just before the 4 '-' characters and the '"If you bat ..."

Also I think they were hard to find, because the archives last eighteen entries are erroneous, the bot couldn't manage it properly and repeatedly put the same stuff in. Penyulap ☏ 16:35, 2 Jul 2013 (UTC) 16:35, 2 July 2013 (UTC)

There are I think more pressing image-related problems, such as the non-free rationale being used on the OPSEK image, there are any number of free images that have been created for space stations such as the Chinese space station. However, most comments in most places are not appropriate whilst a few dictators keep me blocked. People can ask me on commons. Penyulap ☏ 20:41, 7 Aug 2013 (UTC)

Warning

This is your one and only warning. I like your user page a lot, so I'm going to tell my friends it's mine. I'll tell my enemies too, because then they'll like me and I'll be able to say (truthfully, for the first time in my life) that I'm a person without enemies. Not even Jesus was able to say that, but then he never told anyone your user page was his. He never even saw it. Comcast was crap in Galilee. Writegeist (talk) 07:00, 25 February 2014 (UTC)

Congratulations

Short of a TKS based space station I drew

Cheers to the Chinese space program which has now overtaken the USA space station program. The USA program launched 1 space station on it's own (spacelab),.. whereas Tiangong II is the second space station that the PRC has launched on it's own. So, once again there are two manned space stations up in space, ISS and Tiangong II. There have been two stations in space before but not for a while. Back then a manned spaceship traveled between the two as a robot arrived at one ! those were the days. Would be nice to see a deep space space station run by China and Russia together.

I see the article is basically a stub and I find the addon "Hide Unwanted Results of Google Search" useful. Animationed movies are easy as pie to make and I see them in all the news reports for Tiangong II. I see there is nothing of the sort here though. Now even a good selection of still images for the article, but then again, it's just a stub. Penyulap ☏ 22:30, 17 Oct 2016 (UTC)

people can approach me. I don't bite, I still look in now and then although I do not ever read wikipedia anymore in search results, I mean, what can a person learn from wiki coverage of spaceflight ? China is in ascendancy, an look at the state of it here, chop, chop coverage is laughable. Whatever.
