They used to. I remember those days.

What happened to your avatar?

The cat is withdrawn until Greg admits he was a bit rude and unnecessary. It's a pointless, shit, illogical and emotionally hyperbolic gesture on my part, but hey, this is the internet.

Sounds very Eric-y to me.

Eric is at a much higher level of butthurt than this. No comparison, really.

I guess I missed whatever happened. Which is fine, but thought I'd point that out in a pointless way just for shits and illogical giggles.

Let's not go to Wikipediocracy. 'Tis a silly place.



Yes, I too was referring to the Menace from Manchester.

Could someone please explain who Abd is and why anyone cares about what he's up to for the benefit of new readers?

Bloke who talked a lot without saying much. Fan of cold fusion and assorted pseudoscience woo.

Keeps on getting into trouble at Wikiversity by trying to take the place seriously.

Half of what I do on here is a bit rude and unnecessary. I'll classify my comment to you in those categories, if you'll count it as an admission.

Pretty much this.

My most memorable Abd moment was the short time that Wil made him an admin over at Offwiki and then went to bed. By the time Wil came back the next day, Abd had blocked and totally enraged a member, written volumes of text, and alienated the small community. Wil de-adminned Abd as soon as he realized what was going on.

You can see how much mayhem Abd can create in his three week contribution history on Offwiki.

Wil summed it up:

Wil Sinclair wrote: I made a personal appeal to him to avoid conflict, as I was literally spending all the time that I had to contribute to this site trying to resolve various conflicts that all involved Abd.

Not in the slightest actually. I come from the same town, though.

Works for me at the moment.There was another "a" word that might have worked better, but as I say, "hey, it's the internet". The cat will return shortly.
My apologies to innocent bystanders for the unseemly squabbling I initiated here. Sorry, everyone.

If everybody here had to apologize for all the "unseemly squabbling" they "initiated here," I wonder just how long that thread (hoping that it would be just one thread) would be. No apologies necessary I think.

Fair point. Well made.

I was upset on the internet, and my knee jerked. I instantly reacted, which is always bound to work out well.
It's a failure on my part and nobody else's.

Should I know better? Damn straight I should.

Aw, I liked the cat, and now I'll never see it again.

I hate you. Your'e just trying to portray my upset as petty, which it is, but....

But is the cat alive or dead?

Abd just popped up on my radar at Quora. He tends to move from one social site to another, so I suppose it'll be poor Tatiana who has to deal with him for the moment. He seems to be posting mainly about masturbation in Islam and about dating. (Ugh.)

Nothing like having a subject matter expert on your side!


Edit:
Oh dear!

I did run into problems on Wikiversity, a few years ago, but those are in the past. I am now a major force there, with cooperative support from site administration.

Except for recently getting indeffed and flouncing off, right?

I have been recently and intensively trained in Landmark Worldwide programs (2011 to the beginning of 2014, currently not enrolled in anything formal) and I often write about it.

Yep. This is a pretty interesting account for those who like to read about weird experiences.

Cirt and Abd have tussled about that on wikiversity.

I think it's safe to side with Abd on that one!
