Revision as of 12:01, 6 October 2009
The Misplaced Pages philosophy can be summed up thusly: "Experts are scum." For some reason people who spend 40 years learning everything they can about, say, the Peloponnesian War -- and indeed, advancing the body of human knowledge -- get all pissy when their contributions are edited away by Randy in Boise who heard somewhere that sword-wielding skeletons were involved. And they get downright irate when asked politely to engage in discourse with Randy until the sword-skeleton theory can be incorporated into the article without passing judgment.
This, the funniest thing I have seen on wikipedia, was stolen from DreamGuy

Please note there is now a designated area for complaining about me here (I do check it from time to time). This talk page is now only for important and interesting matters. Giano (talk) 11:36, 20 January 2009 (UTC)

Intro to thread:To anyone bored enough to wonder what on earth the thread below relates to, it's the result of snide attacks on Geogre (one of Misplaced Pages's better editors) who seems to have left the project as the result of a curious Arbcom case in which many, including Arbs, decided they were not only blind in one eye (as Geogre knew) but also suddenly developing collective amnesia. The snide comment came from one who is supposed to be under some form of monitoring and mentoring. However, the mentors are woefully incapable and seem to be under the charm of their charge. I needless to say have not succumbed to that charm; if she behaves in such a way again, I shall not hesitate to pint out the shortcomings - hence the threat below to block me made by one of the aforementioned mentors.

- This is a formal warning regarding your recent conduct. You and all others were specifically asked to cease and desist in your explicit violation of a directly given request of the above user to not engage that page to converse with others, and you explicitly violated that request. Frankly, Giano, if you actully want anyone else to stop trolling, then maybe the first thing you should do is to stop being a troll yourself, particularly given your own extensive history in that regard. And I would request you not attempt to carry this conversation on at my talk page as well. Thank you. John Carter (talk) 20:59, 5 October 2009 (UTC)
- Your talk page? Why on earth would anyone want to go there? Regarding your point, such as it is, I have been asked nothing, absolutely nothing. What is more, I do not follow the antics of Mattisse and her tawdry entourage (I assume you are one of them?), so I have no idea what applies to her or any of her associates. However, if Mattisse wishes to attack my friends (on other friends pages) or indeed any driven off editor, unable to reply for themselves, then I will point out that, that is conduct unbecoming to any editor. Penultimately, be careful who you call a troll or you will be blocked yourself. Finaly, take your formal warning and stick it somewhere you feel to be most appropriate. I'm sure you don't need me to specify a place. Good evening. Giano (talk) 21:09, 5 October 2009 (UTC)
