Hi. I just got back from a trip; I'm sorry I wasn't available to help with the maintenance. It looks like I missed the best parts. --Maxamegalon2000 06:36, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

Question. Waiting for your answer

You wrote: Here's a diff showing Bmedley Sutler editing Giovanni33's user page (NOT talk page, user page). MortonDevonshire Yo · 01:15, 19 July 2007 (UTC)

So what? I don't understand what your point is.Giovanni33 01:21, 19 July 2007 (UTC) Please explain the problem with using talk pages to communicate.Giovanni33 04:35, 19 July 2007 (UTC)

Please reread what MD wrote. Then reread what you wrote. Hint: there is no problem with using talk pages to communicate. --Tbeatty 05:37, 19 July 2007 (UTC)
Yes, so if there is no problem using talk pages to communicate, what else transpired so that Morton felt compelled to cite this example on a user check request? To me it seems like an everyday occurance among all editors, nothing odd or strange about it. But maybe I'm missing something?Giovanni33 07:21, 19 July 2007 (UTC)
It was one of my very first edits, and I put it on the wrong page by mistake. Sue me. I see what you're up to. (not you G33) Bmedley Sutler 09:31, 19 July 2007 (UTC)
What I don't understand is that there is nothing wrong with communicating with editors via their talk page (as in what we are doing right now). So even if you intentionally left it for me on my own talk page (I did as you that question about your papers), then there is nothing strange or questionable about that practice, hence my question to Morton, which also strangely remains unanswered.Hmmm..Giovanni33 01:43, 20 July 2007 (UTC)
Bmedley Sutler edited your userpage, not your talk page. That's one of the typical mistakes that a sockpuppet makes -- to get confused about which user account he's using, and use the wrong one to edit something. Most tellingly is an edit by the sock of the puppetmaster's userpage.  MortonDevonshire  Yo  · 22:03, 20 July 2007 (UTC)
Came back unrelated for those concerned, not a big surprise to me, I had a feeling I was not someone else and pretty sure I was not Giovanni, sometimes I feel like Tom harrison, but only in spirit. --SevenOfDiamonds 12:53, 23 July 2007 (UTC)
Huh; I guess the ritual was successful after all. Tom Harrison Talk 00:29, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
Awesome I have been a victim of some voodoo majick. --SevenOfDiamonds 09:58, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

Of course, I was addressing the similarities of two OTHER users, not you, so it's a bit suspicious that you're here responding to the allegation. Perhaps I was looking at the wrong pair.  MortonDevonshire  Yo  · 14:43, 23 July 2007 (UTC)

Are you stating you are going to open a RFCU attempting to link me to Giovanni? ... hmm ... something tells me this will fail. --SevenOfDiamonds 16:49, 23 July 2007 (UTC)
Can you say 'dynamic IP'?  MortonDevonshire  Yo  · 17:32, 23 July 2007 (UTC)
I'm I'm really SixofDiamonds, now, I think even you are going to have to give me a "Working Man's Barnstar."Giovanni33 04:59, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
No no apparently Rootology and Freedom and accuracy for all are SevenOfDiamonds. This reminds me of that movie where the guy steals the paiting with all the look a likes ... what was that? Go ahead Morton report it, so I can wikilink the RFCU that already stated I was not, and get a good laugh. I just drop by to let everyone know and the paranoia jumps right, I knew someone that was really paranoid, but it was because their medication. --SevenOfDiamonds 09:58, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
Seven, you're thinking of The Thomas Crown Affair. Giovanni33, you forgot to mention that you're Nescio too -- get it right!  MortonDevonshire  Yo  · 14:47, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
I love that movie! Thanks for the wikilink. --SevenOfDiamonds 16:22, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
I don't think it's possible for you to be FAAFA. You're way too civil. - Crockspot 16:40, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
Tell that to the Morton's and MONGO's who insist on making accusations. Since I can sense a tinge of welcomeness (sp?) I will try not posting here anymore. --SevenOfDiamonds 16:51, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
I can't judge whether or not you're a sock of somebody, but a quick look through your edit summaries pretty much rules out FAAFA. That guy could never control his smartassedness in his summaries. - 17:08, 24 July 2007 (UTC)


Personal Attacks On Wikipedia

Remember "you dumb mother f-er", vigilant admins block users for personal attacks. Torturous Devastating Cudgel 19:42, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

Apology

I apologize for not removing FAAFA's picture comparing me to Michael Moore. I thought that FAAFA meant to imply, I guess, that I was as big a conspiracist as Moore. Go here to see what the picture and caption used to read. I thought it was funny. Sorry for the misplaced humor. I would have removed it if he Gamaliel had explained his concerns. I promise to be more careful next time. I've done what I can to make the page more palatable.  MortonDevonshire  Yo  · 05:37, 25 July 2007 (UTC)

This is an insanely inappropriate block. --Tbeatty 06:26, 25 July 2007 (UTC)

For the record, I am partly guilty here as well since I added the caption: "Please join me at the all you can eat emporium."[1]...back last November.--MONGO 07:05, 25 July 2007 (UTC)

We're all guilty a little bit. We should have realized Gamaliel was losing his temper when he started attacking other editors with namecalling. At that point we should have just stopped posting to his talk page and I am sorry I so. Still doesn't justify his block, though. --Tbeatty 07:33, 25 July 2007 (UTC)

Your request to be unblocked has been granted for the following reason(s):

Numerouse Attempts to Suppress Truthfull Information (sic)

Here's one Truther's Call to Action against those who would seek to suppress "numerouse truthfull information"(sic), and the full string here where they call to identify and "kill" us.  MortonDevonshire  Yo  · 15:01, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

By the way, I'm pretty sure this means that all PrisonPlanet links should be removed per ArbCom. --Tbeatty 15:50, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

Okay, this is the funniest thread ever. "Yet another top wiki editor is in on the game of changing the "911 Truth" article. He's changed it to make us look like a bunch of idiots! Evidence of serial anti- truth movement all over his page. Including a reference to the meaning of conspiracy theory. Then a comment about 911 truthers. Kill Them I SAY!" OMG. Not the meaning of Conspiracy Theory!!! Why, that's a conspiracy theory! Who are these people? --Tbeatty 15:54, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
It's funny that when we include all of the facts in the article the Truthers think it makes them look like idiots. By the way, the guy who wrote this left me a message on my talk page here. He asked me to e-mail him. What do you want to bet that if I had e-mailed him he would have posted my address and as a result I would have received "numerouse" poorly-written hate e-mails? He sent me another message here. These people are insane. Pablo Talk | Contributions 16:00, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

Hi Morty, my good friend. Thought I'd give you a heads up about this article. Seems you've been targeted! Ha ha. ... Seabhcan 13:01, 28 July 2007 (UTC)

Comments like this "Please stop just vandalizing Morton's userpage" and "there is no free speech on wikipedia. This is an encyclopedia, not a forum or a blog. Vandalising pages will not help your cause.". I agree. Terrible. How could I say such a thing! Oh, the shame, the shame... ... Seabhcan 16:58, 28 July 2007 (UTC)

Interesting to see that Myspace has banned all mention of Prisonplanet.com from their site. I didn't know that Brother Murdoch would move so soon. Of course, all of us Jews think alike now, don't we.  MortonDevonshire  Yo  · 02:01, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

USEBACA Alert 2: Looks like they got hacked last night, and are now blaming it on the Evil Agents of Wikipedia.  MortonDevonshire  Yo  · 17:59, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

If they check their system, they'll find out the hack job came straight from the White House. Bush is deeply concerned they will uncover the truth about our efforts to establish a New World Order on Wikipedia.--MONGO 18:21, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

Which side do you support? The Front for French-Speaking Swiss or the French-speaking Swiss Front? Or on the side of the multiple German insurgents? --Tbeatty 22:21, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

Radio show

Do you think you'll get a mention on his radio show? --Tbeatty 05:02, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

4 hours of airtime to fill, and nothing rational to say. You can bet on it. But I'm hoping for the big time, which would be Coast-to-Coast-AM with George Noory.  MortonDevonshire  Yo  · 05:05, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
By the end of the week, they might discover you are a super-natural being trying to suppress The Truth(tm) about your alien buddy George Bush and his ghostly pal Dick Cheney's plan to blow up the WTC with lasers from their Space Ship when the owner "pulled it" before they got the final shot off. Have they figured out yet that the airplanes had lasers strapped to their head? Or that the laser platforms were really Bush's spaceships disguised as Boeing 777's? Or that 777/747's are really spaceships because nothing that heavy could actually fly? --Tbeatty 07:00, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

royalties

At least Jones gave you royalties for using your likeness on his page. I guess he didn't want to have to put that GFDL on all his content. Nice to see the truthers money is going to a good cause :). --Tbeatty 08:57, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

How is PrisonPlanet.com an attack site? Why are you guys so pathetic that you have to spend all your time trying to block access to free information? gobufffs10
No one opposes access to free information. But there's a lot of stuff masquerading as information that might be read by impressionable children and they might believe it. They would then have to spend valuable classroom time unlearning it. It's hard enough teaching kids that 2+2=4. Imagine if they had to unlearn 2+2=5 before they started. We do it for the children. --Tbeatty 05:11, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

Wiki spam filter

When I tried to revert a vandal's changes to User:Morton devonshire/conspiracy theory, a strange error message popped up. The wiki spam filter wouldn't allow me to insert links listed on the blacklist and blocked all of the revert. I needed to manually delete the myspace link before it let me. That unfortunately destroys the context a little. Just to let you know. Sciurinæ 15:05, 28 July 2007 (UTC)

Dude

...because you are making it some sort of personal vendetta to vandalize Wikipedia. Just because you don't want to accept the realities of the situation behind 9/11, or because certain individuals have annoyed you in the past, is no reason to completely whitewash the information and research that people have work hard to put together. There are mountains of evidence about the events of 9/11, it's probably the biggest conspiracy topic ever, and those seeking information on the topic deserve to have free access to it. PLEASE STOP TRYING TO CENSOR 9/11 Truth. - gobuffs10

You vandalize my userpage and I'm the vandal? I guess if you're a TRUE BELIEVER then anything you do is justified. Is that your rationale?  MortonDevonshire  Yo  · 03:19, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
That's a bunch of crap. No person involved in the 9/11 Truth Movement has worked hard at all to research the subject. That is exactly why the movement relies heavily upon things said and written directly after the attacks that have been long since disproved. The only thing you've worked hard to do is vandalize various user pages and insert crap into this encyclopedia. Knock it off. Pablo Talk | Contributions 03:34, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
I think ManBearPig might be a bigger conspiracy than Mystery of the Urinal Deuce. Both were great episodes though. --Tbeatty 06:34, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
I apologize for vandalizing your page. But you guys are seriously just pathetic. You obviously haven't even looked at most of the information you want to delete. How do you feel good about that? --gobuffs10
dude, we've seen all of the information. Too many times. Regurgitated in various forms and guises. From arguments about jet fuel fire temperatures to molten aluminum from thermite bombs to audio of some guy saying "pull it." We've read the NIST report numerous times with a critical eye. we've seen youTube videos of the most inane variety. And there is only two conclusions: 1) terrorists flew planes into the buildings whcih caused their collapse and 2) Alex Jones, et al, seems to make a lot of money selling conspiracy to True Believers. The Truth conferences are not free (the one here cost $500 to attend) so why would you make the claim that this information wants to be free? Alex Jones does not give away his books or ad space on his web page. Follow the money. --Tbeatty 07:36, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
There is just no reasoning with willful ignorance or purposeful deciet. The fact that Wikipedia puts up with this kind of thuggery in a tool of information is really telling. Keep up the good work. -gobuffs10

Personnel issues

It looks like Seabhcan's utility as our man on the inside is at an end. We can probably let him continue to post for the sake of appearances. He may try working under another name for a while, but I don't know how long he will be able to get away with that. The next guy in the deck is an experienced poster there and here with enough credibility to get the job done. Nobody can replace Seabhcan, but this guy has his own talents, as I think you will see. You already know who it is, or you don't need to know. I hope everyone gives him a chance. Tom Harrison Talk 11:20, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

POV Violation

Hello Morton, This edit is way too POV Link Please don't post non-sense like this again. I had to make an incident for this. <refactor blp vio> Most are spending money, not making any. Many also just believe what is known as 'LIHOP', which means BUSHGOV Let It Happen On Purpose. Much from the PNAC playbook. Play fair Morton. Don't sink to their depth.

Someone made an incident on me when I did something alike with the moving of the CIA Interrogation Manuals 96-97 article to a good title. I thought that what the incident board is there for! Sorry if I'm wrong. No one agrees with your POV edits anyway. You are taking that PrisonPlanet thing all too hard. Don't sink to their depths here on Wikipedia to make a POINT.
