Forum:Time to rangeblock?
Jump to navigation

Should we do what SP ended up doing shortly before we moved to the new wiki and rangeblock a certain vandal? The block back then was of 4.152.0.0/16 - which also happens to be blocked at Wikia's central wiki since about one and a half week ago; wouldn't surprise me if it would remain the same. Seems that - unlike on the previous wiki - we'll have to make a request to Wikia staff to look up the IPs of the users, and that it is concidered proper to discuss blocking an IP range on their forum before doing it. --Fluffalizer 23:23, 5 Aym 2007 (UTC)
- Yeah, but its fun banning this loser. If you want to do it then go ahead and ban the range.--Silent PenguinLeave Me Alone 12:25, 6 Aym 2007 (UTC)
- You reckon it's the same person each time? Seems to be from Encyclopedia Dramatica, further staining their reputation. Anything going on over there with regards to anti-Illogicopedian rants? -- Hindleyak Converse • ?blog • Click here! 12:47, 6 Aym 2007 (UTC)
- I just had a look (tried some time ago, but it was down). North_Carolina_vandal (can't link - blocked) is an article about the vandal - or the main one if there are multiple, which remains to be seen for sure. The ED article on us states that "Illogicopedia is another poor ED ripoff/humor wiki attempt, which consists of utterly unfunny nonsense which no one understand can undestand ..." and that our slogan is a rip-off of their "In lulz we trust" and to "FUCK THOSE FUCKING FUCKERS". I'll ask Wikia staff about looking up the IPs of the banned vandals and do a rangeblock if it turns out appropriate. --Fluffalizer 21:45, 6 Aym 2007 (UTC)
- Pffh, ripoff, do they think we are trying to be funny or something? unfunny Nonsence! It's what we are here for, We arn't meant to be funny, hence why its hosted by the same place as uncyc, and why they don't hate us. Sounds like its just a bitter b*stard to me. To be honest if that is the best he could do about us then what he can do can't be said here. It gets me that they can even claim we ripped off the "In lulz we trust", they only ripped it off of the biggest think that you could The USA motto! HA! Therefore no-one could state a claim over a fifty year old motto, If they are that bothered about it then just go and think another one up. Plus they are a bit pissed by the looks as they don't have any money to pay for hosting. Perhaps we should pay ED's channel a visit sometime?--Silent PenguinLeave Me Alone 22:23, 6 Aym 2007 (UTC)
- Whoever it is, the article was started by the same one who wrote the obvious reference to AAH's edits on their EditThis.info page before remaking the entry of Illogicopedia on a page of its own. Anyway, I just sent the Evil Overlords a message requesting an IP check of the vandal accounts. --Fluffalizer 23:02, 6 Aym 2007 (UTC)
- A couple of hours ago I got a response. All the vandal accounts indeed were within the range. (and a /18 would be enough to get the ones thus far, though you can't know for sure about future ones) Things having stayed calm since the last one, we could perhaps wait and see if there is a re-appearance before blocking, though. --Fluffalizer 05:49, 11 Aym 2007 (UTC)
