Paying for webdesign is hardly uncommon.
Nor is trying to bribe new users to sign up to a website in the hope
they will create some content for you and maybe get you up to critical
mass.
Well, if that's what he's doing (and I don't concede that it is), let
him. It's no skin of *our* noses, surely?
Wikipedia, and wikien-L, are not for gloating at what may or may not be
evidence that someone certain members don't like is not doing as well as
he'd hoped. If you want to engage in a little schadenfreude, I think I
have a copy of "The Book of My Enemy Has Been Remaindered" for you to
read and cackle over in the privacy of your own home, and not on this list.
Guy, I value and enjoy your opinion, whether offered here or on-wiki.
Your repeated digs at Gregory Kohs, deserved or not, however, are far
from enjoyable. They degrade both the experience of reading the list,
and the reputation of Wikipedia admins. If you have to express your
distaste for this chap, please do so more productively and less
publicly. Perhaps you could take up gym membership and work off your
frustration that way, or (it being soon after the Queen's Birthday
Holiday), if that's too expensive, get some fireworks and blow up
people's mailboxes. I look forward to not hearing your solution to the
problem.
Cheers,
