Re: ITS BACK STORMY!!!

The page got locked because of our edit warring, and one of the admins reverted the page to the state it was in before the warring started, which happened to include the link. Obviously Quinten Armijo is refusing to listen to reason. Any support on the talk page would be much appreciated; I'm the only one trying to talk some sense into this guy at the moment, and the admins don't want to do anything until we've reached a consensus.

I'm currently in the process of contacting the proper authorities to get it removed permanently. Just have to wait until the page is unprotected tomorrow.

Re: ITS BACK STORMY!!!

Let me just say this as the most useful advice about him, don't bother trying to teach sense into him. Whatever he thinks to him is law and only law.

Re: ITS BACK STORMY!!!

Yeah, I really don't expect to change his mind. I'm more interested in laying out the case for anyone else who might become interested in this guy's spam... but it should be very obvious to anyone with a shred of common sense who's in the right here, so I'm probably wasting my time with that, even. tongue

Btw thank you for making this forum just a tiny bit more official than before with your facebook like! tongue

Re: ITS BACK STORMY!!!

WHEN SPYRO STARTED OUT HE WAS A BUNCH OF BLUE CREATURES CALLED SMURFS, LATER ON THEY REDESIGNED HIM AS A BUNCH OF CARTOON BABIES AND CALLED HIM RUGRATS, THEN THEY FINALLY DECIDED TO MAKE HIM INTO ONE SINGLE PURPLE DRAGON NAMED REYKJAVIKHARFNARFJOURKOPAVOGUR BUT THEN RENAMED HIM TO SPYRO AFTER HIS NAME BLENDED INTO THE GRASS

REYKJAVIKHARFNARFJOURKOPAVOGUR WAS ORIGINALLY SUPPOSED TO BREATHE CRYSTALLIZED DRAGONS AND PUT OUT FIRES BUT THEY CHANGED THAT AFTER THE JOHNNY BRAVO PEOPLE THREATENED TO SUE INSOMOSIAC OVER THE SIMILARITIES BETWEEN BREATHING CRYSTALLIZED DRAGONS AND JOHNNY BRAVO COMBING HIS HAIR SO THEY REVERSED THEM TO AVOID A LAWSUIT

REYKJAVIKHARFNARFJOURKOPAVOGUR WAS REDESIGNED TO A VIDEO GAME DRAGON BY INSOMOSIAC AFTER THE COMMERCIAL FAILURE OF THEIR FIST ENDEAVOR CALLED THE UNION OF THE SOVIET SOCIALIST REPUBLIC WHEN IT WAS BOUGHT OUT BY ACTIVISION AND CHECK SIX GAMES AND INSOMOSIAC WANTED TO CREATE A MORE KID FRIENDLY GAME SO THEY MADE REYKJAVIKHARFNARFJOURKOPAVOGUR THE DRAGON

A LOT OF GAMES BACK THEN USED TO HIDE UNLOADED TEXTURES BY PUTTING IMAGES OF KISS IN THE BACKGROUND BUT INSOMOSIAC WANTED TO DO SOMETHING DIFFERENT SO THEY MADE A THING WHERE GENE SIMMONS COMES OUT AND PAINTS TEXTURES AS THEY LOAD WHICH WAS REVOLUTIONARY FOR THE TIME

THEY ALSO NOTICED HOW MOST AI AT THE TIME CONSISTED OF ENEMIES BREAKING OFF INTO GANGSTA RAP SO THEY DECIDED TO MAKE MORE INTERACTIVE ENEMIES THAT WOULD HIT YOU AND RUN AWAY FROM YOU AND SERENADE YOU WITH BONNIE TYLER SONGS

THE NAME RIPTO IN SPYRO TWO COMES FROM BONNIE TYLER WHICH IN KOREAN LOOKS LIKE FKSJGSDGJIOISFJ WHICH INSOMOSIAC READ TO BE RIPTO

SKATEBOARD MOVES IN SPYRO THREE ARE NAMED AFTER ENEMIES FROM THE PREVIOUS GAMES SUCH AS THE DOCTOR SHEMP EXTRAVAGANZA WHICH IS A MOVE WHERE YOU DO THIRTY FRONT FLIPS AND THEN DO A HUNDRED THIRTY HUNDRED MILLION RIGHT FLIPS AND A FRONT FLIP AGAIN OR SOMETHING

ON THE WALLS IN SUMMER FOREST AND WINTER TUNDRA YOU CAN SEE WORDS THEY SPELL OUT THE BILL OF RIGHTS AND WERE PUT IN BY THE DESIGNER BASED ON SOMETHING HIS KIDS READ IN ONE OF THE SCHOOL TEXT BOOKS

AND THAT'S SPYRO TRIVIA THE OFFICIAL WAY

Re: ITS BACK STORMY!!!

Btw, his forum does not have many likes to be official anyways
https://www.facebook.com/groups/SpyroTh … p_activity    (DO NOT CLICK UNLESS YOU ARE CURIOUS)
325, most of them are probably from him bugging other peoples fan pages and whatnot

Re: ITS BACK STORMY!!!

I'm actually curious where the "27k likes" are from. Which Facebook page is actually linked on there? Or does the thing just count how many times people click on it or something?

I remember it being some generic Spyro fan page last time he tried this crap.

Re: ITS BACK STORMY!!!

... is this an entire forum of him talking to himself? i don't say this out of jealousy or anger, i say this out of genuine confusion - they all have the exact same mentality as him to the point that it's creepy.

http://{ spam website }/t258-sorry-guys-cynders-taken

... who would respond to a thread like this with "lucky..."? the more i look at this site the more absolutely confused i am. surely people who are *that* similar can't all just ... ? i don't know.

http://{ spam website }/t247-why-minecraft

good grief, he's even advertising on MineCraft forums. what is wrong with this person? i could say more, but i won't.

Re: ITS BACK STORMY!!!

The head IP user was blocked for two days on wikipedia for reverting the edit of an admin removing his fansite link on the Spyro series page. Smooth move.

Re: ITS BACK STORMY!!!

Yeah, not a smart move to get into an edit war with an admin.

I thought the same thing, 36; all of the posts seem way too similar in tone to be different people. I guess it's possible that all of these same types of fans just congregated in this one place, but....

Look at the talk page, too - he used at least two different IPs to pretend to be "netrual" users in favor of adding the link back.

You know, I think I might actually stick around on Wikipedia after all of this to help fight other forms of spam. tongue

(By the way, guys, I would be a horrible moderator if I didn't mention that we should continue to avoid personal attacks on this guy (not that anyone is doing that right now). We can talk about the site and the owner's actions, but when we start insulting actual people, it's going too far.)

Re: ITS BACK STORMY!!!

I seem to have missed this entire drama fest. sad Seems pretty silly to me, especially arguing over Facebook likes of all things.

Also 36, I feel like I understand Spyro on a much deeper level now. Thank you for your all caps insight.

no problem! a lot of people think that Spyro's scale color was blending into the grass, but in fact it was his name REYKJAVIKHARFNARFJOURKOPAVOGUR. i made that by combining/misspelling various places in Iceland.
