Though there is a new proposal [[Wikipedia:Off-site policy discussions considered harmful]] (or something like that) which David and Kirill are in clear breach of!!!! :) I'm still waiting for [[Wikipedia:Creating or constructively editing articles considered harmful]].

Strangly no. Due to the way the servers are set up editor traffic doesn't have nearly as much impact on viewing speeds for non editors as you would expect. -- geni

Y'know, if [[User:the Epopt]] were blocked, I'd create a sockpuppet and have the time of my life. You'd never catch me, because I'd edit a completely different set of pages. I'd never touch RfAr -- I'd stay away from Crap for Deletion -- I'd even avoid making fun of Process That Is Important -- instead, I'd actually edit articles!

Perhaps it would be optimal to switch Wikipedia over to _write_-only mode. Get rid of all those freeloading readers who don't contribute. :)

Can't a lot of our servers are not sutible to be database servers. -- geni

Time to block [[User:The Epopt]] indefinitely then, on the grounds that it is clearly beneficial to the encylopaedia to do so! Sean Barrett <sean(a)epoptic.org> wrote: -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 grm_wnr stated for the record:
