D&D Wiki talk:Requests for Adminship/Swankypants

Wow! 18-0? This nomination is almost certain to happen. I haven't seen many rfas, but I'm pretty sure this successful. --MythicActions2000 (talk) 16:26, 25 October 2021 (MDT)

Honestly, I expected 10:0:4 at best. A bit afraid all this is gonna go straight to my head. --SwankyPants (talk) 16:36, 25 October 2021 (MDT)

Yeah. If I was in your place I would probably feel the same. The only neural/reject was a rude and abusing comment from revenge of acidrat, which was deleted. I have no idea what gave them the notation that your my sockpuppet. Also, what is it with these vandals and pelicans? Seriously. --MythicActions2000 (talk) 16:47, 25 October 2021 (MDT)

A calling card, of sorts. Pelican (policies prevent me from finishing his name) has been an issue for other wikis too, seemingly for over a decade. Something about having his edits show up when you look for a wiki to make it look worse, if I remember right. I've got no other details beyond this point, as looking for his name reveals little. Plans haven't worked too well, I guess. --SwankyPants (talk) 16:52, 25 October 2021 (MDT)

Yeah, I saw Pelican $&!?/@ in the block list as well as a bunch of other pelican $&@!?/ sockpuppets such as Pelican Productions and i eat pelican, all with reasons such as "inappropriate username" or "abusing alternate accounts". And, other nuts like revenge of AR12345 have used the word "pelican" in their insults. It was a wise decision to block pelican usernames on sight, and by looking at recent vandals like Stareater666 and Monkeybiz666, I would suggest to do the same for 666 names, if only there wasn't already a user called musicmaniac666. Pelicans. Come on. --MythicActions2000 (talk) 17:05, 25 October 2021 (MDT)
