asssiveego has posted his rfa and i have blocked him for it hello i have blocked masssiveego for his antics on wikipedia requests for adminship masssiveego which seems like a clear attempt to draw fire from people bitter with his own antics on rfa with a minimalist nomination and tongue in cheek answers to the questions he seems to have induced a bite from pschemp at least this lasts for a week i previously did this for wikipedia requests for adminship the mad bomber for trolling his own rfa please review and feel free to protest on my talk page blnguyen blabbering sounds about right cyde weys good call samir i don't see any issues with this block pure wp point can we close the rfa or does it need to be a 'crat alphachimp laudare i was thinking of blocking him myself so obviously i endorse the block it's rather obvious that he's trolling for attention with all this rfa stuff let's just not feed him and move on w marsh rfa has been closed support block chacor hey should i close it then it's already wp snowballing with opposes and he is blocked after all glen shit edit conflicts later its been done s sheesh if you use the shortcut at least shorten the verb to wp snowing i want snow p chacor i added an extra day to the block for and canadiancaesar et tu brute edit exhausting community patience once again it's time to bring this up he's coming close to exhausting the community's patience in my view thoughts chacor not yet i would not have blocked him at all for starting the rfa in fact i think snowing this rfa was a bad idea rather i would have let it run the full days having opposes might have finally gotten through to this editor that he needs to reconsider his approach but with the rfa snowed he's got ammo to say we aren't treating him right etc lar t c perhaps but there just isn't a reason to let trolls stay chacor is this user a flat out troll sure close the book right away or is he rescuable if rescuable is it worth the effort that's how i evaluate the question of whether community patience is exhausted i don't think me is a flat out troll his contributions are light so not a lot of effort is justified but i'm not convinced he is not rescuable contrast with tobias next thread clearly not a troll has a big contribution record therefore worth a fair bit of effort but i'm starting to think not rescuable make sense lar t c would we simply be gratifying him by letting the rfa run blnguyen blabbering hard to say i'm not too sussed either way but i did want to throw out that on balance gratified or not this is one time that snow isn't the right thing to do in my view anyway lar t c i think closing it was the right thing to do to avoid disruption blocking him i don't know whether he's a good faith user or not and i suspect probably not but i'm generally upset by the level of blocking going on in wikipedia at the moment the land i think the masssiveego's rfa voting is a problem and unhelpful but i think imposing blocks for it is a rather drastic measure a much better penalty would be for the rfa closing bureaucrats to systematically disregard his votes regarding the rfa i agree with lar that i would not have blocked him for that either and that a hundred oppose s on what is in effect an editor peer review might convey the message far more clearly than a block ever will sjakkalle check i agree with lar and sjakkalle haukur users are allowed to use whatever criteria they like in rfas his are high and somewhat arbitrary but that's his perogative he feels that there are problems with some admins and thus that the process should be more strict changed he has a right to that opinion and should not be persecuted for it obviously his rfa self nom wasn't meant to be a serious attempt but i also don't see where it caused any significant disruption justifying a block cbd it was obvious
