Forum:Mr. Whatever

I nominate User:Mr. Whatever for a ban. In recent days, his attitude towards other editors regarding Manga vs. Anime image disputes has been very harmful to our community. His stubbornness and inability to accept the opinions of others regarding this issue have become too much for me personally to bear, and I feel that many in the community will share my opinion.

For those of you who are unaware, Mr. Whatever is the new account of User:Galaxy9000, who has previously been banned before.

My main evidence against him is twofold:

1) His attitude after losing the poll for Issho's portrait image by a clear margin is unacceptable. His comments here are not helpful to the community moving on and display an uncommon level of stubbornness and hot-headedness. He is "crying over spilled milk", something that our forum rules have warned against for years.

2) After losing the poll for Issho's Portrait, he's re-uploaded the losing option as a separate image, despite the fact that an uncropped version of the same image is already used on Issho's page. This is a direct violation of our Image Guidelines. This caused an edit war on Issho's page, where he simply did not respond to logic.

I'm sure there's other examples of his poor attitude in recent weeks, but those are the only ones I have at this time, though I'm sure other users will be able to mention other situations where he has behaved in a similar manner.

Though those two incidents are really the only rule-breaking things I can think of, the real reason I've opened this forum is for his attitude. His "crying over spilled milk" and pushy, presumptuous, cocky, and ultimately disrespectful attitude should not be tolerated as part of our community. 00:50, September 14, 2014 (UTC)

By that logic, we should ban Seaterror

Gal/Mr. W is often inconsiderate & unreasonable with others during edits wars and diccusions, I support this ban. 01:01, September 14, 2014 (UTC)

Cool story Ryu. I will literally do whatever I wish. Mr. Whatever (talk) 01:09, September 14, 2014 (UTC)

After the opening of this forum, the ongoing dispute the Issho page has continued, with Mr. Whatever calling my edits "vandalism" and undoing them, rather than discuss the issue elsewhere. This is true 100% pure cane edit warring at its least mature levels. 01:13, September 14, 2014 (UTC)

I agree. Insulting other users over a poll result and then starting an edit war without using the talk page is unacceptable, especially from an experienced editor who knows the rules. 01:25, September 14, 2014 (UTC)

This is comical, Gal was exiled and now comes back to rule the place that banished him. He's not hiding anything, he knows whats he's doing irritates people. Yet he'll do as he pleases and he won't listen to anyone. Maybe Gal is a satanist now, that explains it 01:25, September 14, 2014 (UTC)

This dude is like the fucking Terminator. You can't ban him no less kill him. --He hung himself with a guitar string (talk) 01:27, September 14, 2014 (UTC)

Gal is a legend here, nothing can stop his rage. ~_~  01:51, September 14, 2014 (UTC)

Ok, after his sockpuppet based rage and reverting images to the manga versions, is anyone opposed to a permanent ban to any and all accounts he's made for this? 01:59, September 14, 2014 (UTC)

Sounds good to me. When does the ST ban forum reopen?



Anyways, on a more serious note...

Nothing against the rules with me discussing the outcome of the poll. If I pulled a SeaTerror and discussed it months after sure, but hours after? Your argument is flawed.

I gave reasons for the Issho revert (the fuller body one can't be updated to HQ because the right side of the coat is cut off, therefore presenting less information). It's also better to have two separate images in this case, as the open eyes image could be replaced with a better anime or manga image, and same thing with the full body manga color scheme. You should try to actually look at the edit summaries in order to get a grasp on what the edit is about (I explained this in my edit summary, but your ignoring of evidence was very childish and antagonistic). You shouldn't remove images from pages either without discussion, as since you began the dispute, it was your duty to go to the talk page and argue your case as to why the image shouldn't be used, instead of marking it for deletion with contrived reasoning, without any discussion. With no official warning from an admin as well, there's no precedent for this kind of forum to have been opened (I could probably open the same forum for you, with the same evidence if I felt childish enough!)
