Per clear consensus at the time (https://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php?topic=90964.0), overruled by admin malpractice, I move that https://wiki.hard-light.net/index.php/GTC_Aeolus be unprotected effective immediately, so that the ancient wiki Dance-a-Lot may continue.

Could you stop bringing up even more drama, like, seriously?

It's all part of chipping away at Goober. This bull**** wouldn't have gone on for years and years if it wasn't annoying Goober.

That Goober doesn't like something doesn't mean that it happens specifically to annoy him.

My favorite anecdote about the Sir Mixalot quote is that someone on the admin/GM board referred to it as a 'flagrant power grab.' Trying to steal the keys to HLP with the lyrical prowess of Anthony L. Ray singing about butts

Justice must be done. I demand unfettered access to the Aeolus Wiki page.

It's a conspiracy. We're all so glad you're shining a light on it, and exposing the evil of this world. You cracked the case.

**** Battuta, I think he's on to you. You're trying to demean women by pointing out the Aeolus' flak features, aren't you? That's been your goal for the past 5 years. Bad Battuta. Bad.

I think that's a fair point, so I will also add the phrase, "Oh my gosh, look at her strut!" Because the Aeolus has a nice strut for a midsection. This will provide a feminist Nicki Minaj perspective.

It's always good to balance things. Fair and balanced, that's what someone says.

We could also reference all the WAP (wild Aeolus posting) going on around this topic.

Let me get this straight. Goober was so offended by a vague butt joke that he locked wiki pages and forum threads over the course of years... this being emblematic of the problems people have had with his moderation for just as long.

So while I find this issue pretty dang silly and the whole idea of trying to keep that harmless sentence out of the wiki prudish, just because Goober has finally been defanged I don't think it's helpful to go drudging up every controversy he's ever caused in order to get it undone.

I don't think it's every controversy. Lord knows there have been many.

Just this one.

Can't a man post some VC jokes, five years after the fact? I'll attest the man is a Veteran, and knows what he is talking about.

I know sweet **** all about the wiki, but the tone of this thread is setting off alarm bells and I have a few hours before I can check again so it's getting a [temporary] lock until additional staff can look at it.

None of this makes any sense what so ever.

And I've read it twice.
