[edit] TK active socks.

Does TK have active socks on RW? We have no "no sock outing" rule here. If they are suspected perhaps we should name names?

Yes, there are a few. How much evidence is required? human^{be in} 19:10, 11 March 2008 (EST)

I think TK risks getting himself blocked the way he does because he is a computer expert and can create socks easily. If his socks behave in a TK way he'll get "BLOOKED" again and they won't "UNBLOOK" him easily. I'll watch out for him after 26th June. I hope he's got the message by now that he's unwelcome but you never know. Proxima Centauri 13:04, 23 May 2008 (CDT)

Proxima, anyone can create socks. One merely registers a second account under a different username. Furthermore RW's checkuser is deactivated, thus TK needn't worry his IP will be traced. Hans Johnson _{I'll get my hans on it} 20:18, 23 May 2008 (CDT)

A computer expert like TK knows how to find out when checkuser is deactivated. I wouldn't have known. Proxima Centauri 06:00, 25 May 2008 (CDT)

Well, we did discuss it and announce it. There's no way to tell if it works unless you're a sysop and try to use it. But anyway, RW almost actively encourages the use of sockpuppets, at least for humor - look at J McC, HRC and BO, all obvious, but funny, socks. Trent uses socks all the time to edit "undercover". But, as PC states, if TK socked in and acted like the TK we learned to hate, the new account would not be liked. If he succeeded in creating a new user account that was not like the bad old TK, we wouldn't care. human^{be in} 20:54, 25 May 2008 (CDT)

[edit] "unblocking"

"unblocked on time on 10th March by AKjeldsen" - things like that should be footnoted. As far as I know, he was simply automatically unblocked by the software when the block expired. Also should have links to the Bohdan message, etc. human^{be in} 19:10, 11 March 2008 (EST) Also, why isn't that reported in RWW time?

I will look for them. If it's not too much trouble, do you remember what page TK voiced his objections to the "beauty contest" of electing sysops? I am not able to find it, although I remember reading it somewhere. Hans Johnson _{I'll get my hans on it} 04:51, 13 March 2008 (EST)

Does this meet your requirements? Still missing links to TK's campaigns for sysopship, though. But like I said, I cannot seem to find them. --Hans Johnson _{I'll get my hans on it} 05:41, 13 March 2008 (EST)

Is this what you're looking for? Night Flare 15:16, 15 March 2008 (EST)

Indeed. Thank you. Hans Johnson _{I'll get my hans on it} 20:41, 15 March 2008 (EST)

[edit] DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES UNBLOOCK THIS USER

I saw that earlier today when unblocking ttamesp, and seriously considered unblocking and reblocking to get the spelling write. But then the bloodstains on my hands would be fresher ;) human^{be in} 17:57, 31 March 2008 (CDT)

And really, there's so many more lulz this way. Every time I see that I giggle a bit. Hey, if you make Lurker sysop, I'm sure he'd unblock and reblock TK. Not that I'd know, because I'm Definitely not lurker 22:33, 31 March 2008 (CDT)

[edit] Best of RWW

This article provides a standard we should strive to meet in all our articles. I propose we add it to category:best of RationalWikiWiki. Hans Johnson _{I'll get my hans on it} 14:24, 16 April 2008 (CDT)

Please see talk:Ungtss for an explanation. Hans Johnson _{I'll get my hans on it} 14:26, 24 April 2008 (CDT)

[edit] So what happened next?

No update since the block expired. . . . JuanK 21:49, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

Nothing happened, basically. We haven't seen the good gentleman since. --AKjeldsen 08:34, 6 October 2008 (UTC)

He came back in early November. He made one edit complaining that he was a "lowly editor". Presumably he meant that he wanted to be a sysop. I sorted that out and changed him from a lowly editor to a vandal. I let him out later as he caused no trouble at RationalWiki. I'll be watching him if he comes back again. I've got more power than that known bully at RationalWiki. So have any number of other sysops. Mahaha! Proxima Centauri 09:19, 1 December 2008 (UTC)

More power than you deserve... Hans Johnson _{I'll get my hans on it} 11:17, 1 December 2008 (UTC)

[edit] TK's Behaviour

When I was still studying Psychology, we learned that sometimes psychopaths don't commit violent crimes. These "subclinical psychopaths", as they are known, have a tendency to play people off against each other, instigate chaos in the workplace, and then get promoted as the only competent worker out of a bad bunch. Sound familiar? 121.73.11.43 11:39, 1 December 2008 (UTC)

Eerily. Hans Johnson _{I'll get my hans on it} 19:46, 1 December 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Occupation

This article identifies TK as a computer consultant, per the LA Times article. But there's some stuff at RW about him being a used car salesman. Any ideas where that originates from & whether it's accurate? weaseLICIOuS ^{Bite Me} 15:00, 1 January 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Controversial

I think I tie with TK. Unfortunately. --ConservapediaUndergroundResistor 21:04, 4 February 2009 (UTC)

No you don't. Phantom Hoover 21:10, 4 February 2009 (UTC)

Oh, good. --ConservapediaUndergroundResistor 21:13, 4 February 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Current events

Anyone gonna update this with the current 2 year block of TK, or do I have to do it myself? MNpunkboy 21:55, 6 May 2010 (UTC)

You can update? :p I've been thinking of a few more things that need adding, but... I'm too lazy. Feel like sticking in the "user88 name template" too? Refugee 00:05, 7 May 2010 (UTC)

Damn, I knew I was gonna have to do all the work!!! I suppose this is what I get for opening my internet mouth! MNpunkboy 03:20, 7 May 2010 (UTC)

[edit] TK's Parthian shot

TK wrote, "it is simply not worth my efforts to be humiliated and abused" shortly before he left the CP project for good. RobSmith 22:17, 21 February 2011 (UTC)

No he didn't. He wrote that before continuing to edit block people and post shit on MPR at CP for another month. The then 'left the project for good' when he died of a heart attack caused by coronary artery disease.

Feel free to post that quote elsewhere in this article, but don't deceitfully phrase it as a parthian shot. Because it clearly isn't. DeltaStar 22:27, 21 February 2011 (UTC)

Ah, so Rob has to come here and be a lying sack of shit too. Of course, we only have his "word" for it that that was what TK said. he certainly showed no change in attitude on CP. Sounds like commie agitprop to me. --Psygremlin 20:42, 22 February 2011 (UTC)

Quiet all of you!Tyrannis 20:46, 22 February 2011 (UTC)

Awww, mum! But he started! --Psygremlin 20:50, 22 February 2011 (UTC)

As a staunch Post-Conservapedian.... keep it civil. Tyrannis 20:56, 22 February 2011 (UTC)

Rob is such a disgusting person it's hard not just saying it out loud whenever he shows up to tell bizarre lies like this. Nutty Roux 21:31, 22 February 2011 (UTC)

[edit] Rollback

I rolled back Proxima's edits because they were shit. Ace McWicked 19:49, 15 March 2011 (UTC)

Ok. Ty 19:50, 15 March 2011 (UTC)

Well-reasoned and succinctly explained. SuspectedReplicant 19:51, 15 March 2011 (UTC)

[edit] vicious homophobic attack

I haven't looked at the context and I wasn't around at the time, but his last edit doesn't seem to match the description.--Brxbrx 17:31, 26 July 2011 (UTC)

Assuming someone is a lesbian when they have never come out as such, and then using that assumed sexual orientation as a way to score cheap points against them qualifies as homophobia in my books; anytime you bring sexual orientation into a debate that has nothing to do with sexual orientation, you are, essentially, "weaponizing" that person's sexual orientation. "Viscous" might be a little over-the-top, though. RationalwikiwikiUndergroundResistor 19:27, 26 July 2011 (UTC)

Indeed. I'm sure TK had average fluidity for a male of his age.--Brxbrx 19:43, 26 July 2011 (UTC)
