Over on TBP, they're claiming that it was you who modified the wikipedia article about TBP, accusing Curt of having "homosexual fascist moderation practices".

If you didn't do it, you might want to clear that up.

And if you did, you might want to admit it.

I´d be proud if I did that. Sadly, I didn´t.

BTW, Zachary is very real, I can vouch for that.

EDIT: Link please?

Quote from: SettembriniI´d be proud if I did that. Sadly, I didn´t.

I wouldn't be. While I agree with the idea that Curt is very militant with his homosexuality (which is just obvious to anyone who's seen him in action) and that he's an RPG.net modclique fascist (again, obvious),  the actual phrasing of the wikipedia thing was badly worded, played up to accusations of prejudice the Swine have made about us as a means to avoid actually having to deal with the fact that we regularly prove them wrong about everything, and it was anonymous, which to me is always a cop-out.

Shit, I wouldn't have been surprised if it was actually one of the Swine who planted all of this as a way to discredit their enemies by painting them in a bad light, if it wasn't for the fact that the person who would have been "framed" in that case was Zachary, when I would see them much more interested in framing someone who's been more high-profile in the war on Swine (as Zachary said, he's a relative moderate); except maybe if it was someone who is also virulently anti-Palladium or something...

In any case, it doesn't really help our side in any way.

Well my point was made half-jokingly, in that I think Curt is a bad bad mod, with bad tendencies. I don´t know nothing about the article.
So do you have a link?

Well the Wikipedia entry really was bad. I thought it was Pundit hyperbole, but it seems it was a plain shit-sling.

But Curt attacking Zachary really is inane.

Curt's a jerk.  I accept his rulings over there when I participate, but he sucks as a mod.

I don't care if he's gay, he's a jerk.

Not that I know of. We haven't edited their Wiki in months, maybe more than a year. (And we only did it once.) But I can only speak for myself here, although I don't think this would be Brasky's style.

I have met zachary in person and can confirm he and the pundit are two very different and seperate people.

This also does not sound like something Zachary would do.

Mcrow

here is zachary's response:

QuoteI was disgusted to find my name apparently being drug about as personally responsible for a Wikipedia defacing. I have worked very hard to be a positive influence, both as a Megaversal Ambassador and a gamer, as far as RPGnet goes. I have been a model citizen while I've been here, and I hope that people would think this is the last sort of thing I would ever do.

I understand the IP is the same on my RPGnet account. The computer I usually log in from sees use from a lot of gamers, and a lot of Palladium fans. There's enough hardcore Palladium fans in our region (thanks to me) that it could have been several folks who got on that computer. I guess I have some yelling to do at my session tonight. Very uncool. I've never had any real problems with Curt, and it makes no sense for a guy who's been preaching peaceful co-existence with RPGnet to do this.

It is my fault for not logging out of my account, and I understand if I need to have the account banned for a few days as a matter of course, but if that action needs to be taken, I hope this apology/explanation is included as proclamation of my innocence.

As a volunteer for Palladium, I need my intergrity, honesty, and a good name to promote gaming and the games I love. Heck, look what I just wrote on Palladium about this same thing. I will gladly take whatever punishment is decided upon, but need folks to know that this not my doing. It is not nor ever would be something I would do, and I want folks to understand that.

In closing, I apologize for this happening through my inaction, and I hope you will think of me not as a slanderer, but as a numbskull who needs to learn to log off.

P.S.: As an aside, I see whomever it was also apparently had a high opinion of Nobilis. That should be enough right there to see it wasn't me.

----
EDIT: Just to clarify, I've upchanneled all this to the Mods/Admin, so that's the last bit I'll post in this thread. Thanks, and once I again, I apologize to everyone offended by the events that transpired by my inaction.

Yes, and that's the point. He's a jerk, and he's also a jerk about his homosexuality.  But its not the homosexuality that makes him a jerk; he does that all by himself.

Aren't there enough user misdemeanours in rpg.net itself, they have to go to wikipedia to find more?

"Are you now or have you ever been negative about our forums?"

Lamezorz.

And yes, what is good or bad about Curt has nothing to do with where he puts his penis.
