You should! Some funny and useful conversations in there, and I
like seeing all the git/commit auto-posts that show up there,
keeps me aware of changes. I know they also eventually show up in

handed out in there. Even 'TM' has been seen in there recently...

Once my name was registered on the list, there was absolutely no reason to mess
with it.

I'm not saying it was right. I'm saying it wasn't a "hack".

You had every right to complain. You've done so and now it's getting repetitive.

You've said that if it happened to you, it could happen to somebody else. That's possible; any page on the wiki can be vandalized.

What you haven't done is propose a solution. What are you hoping will result from this discussion?

Isn't this what you were fishing for anyhow? You've been milking this wiki episode for drama since before you posted yourself there.

Is everything okay?

Probably revert the edit(s) he doesn't like. As you could do to your own page.

Worst case, change how access to the wiki is granted, which would be unfortunate and would generate more work for him. (Might not be too bad, though, depending on how it's done.)

Maybe they keep downvoting you because they think your idea to add
your name to the wiki is a bad idea???

They don't like Phil and he is on the wiki. So why not me?

Who is Phil?

Phil is a victim of his own communications skills ... seemingly anyway

phil is a weirdo. anyways, i've known him for years. i dont know if he doesnt trust himself but he seems to always ask the questions to things he already knows the answers to.

he has the ability to setup and run a bbs and setup ftn and other shit and he has done it in the past. he is less retarded than the non weirdos i've helped over the years.

maybe being an askhole is part of his disability, i dunno.

Phil was an infamous poster on Dove-Net. Apparently from before my time using Synchronet..

no, he is from during your time.

I started using Synchronet in 2007, and I think I had heard he used to post on Dove-Net often before that? By that time, I had heard of Phil but I don't remember seeing him posting on Dove-Net when I started using Synchronet. There was a guy posting with the name "phil" several months ago, and there was a question if it was the same Phil, but I don't think that was confirmed.

Maybe they'll hack your name too like they did with me.

You don't need to keep sending this message to different people. All you're real ly saying is "people can edit pages on the wiki", which we already know.
Nothing was hacked. The wiki was used as a wiki.
There are a few possible "solutions", but they get progressively worse. echicken

I just want you to know, echicken, I've never edited a wiki at all - ever. I simply poked the millionairre bear and said I did here on Dove... :P I
oughta quit doing that, but sometimes its just too easy.

Phil has definitely been around during your time. He comes and goes. By some miracle you've never noticed him, I guess. Maybe you have a forgotten twitlist entry that's keeping him out.

He's not a bad guy at all, but he takes himself and his BBS very seriously and sometimes becomes belligerent when frustrated. I think he's mellowed out a bit in recent times.

Don't worry about what I think. I'm nobody. Anyway, I know it wasn't you.

You *should* edit the wiki if you ever feel you have something to contribute there, though.

Because Phil is notable. You are not.

For the same reason I'm not on the wiki, I'm not a notable person, either.

How do you konw what names he uses?

because i can tell it's him and by the way he's posting and by what names he's using. he's not doing it to hide his name. he just uses different handles.

He shows up sporadically in the #synchronet IRC channel. Usually
VERY talkative when he's there.
