What Rawtwat is Not

Whatever else you can say about Rawtwat the Vicious, at least he's consistently obnoxious. And a bit thick.

For today's example we have to go back to the 21st when Timenn posted his UESP version of Wikipedia's "What WP Is Not" page. He and The Great Deceiver then engage in a little mutual masturbation over the new page and all seems good.

Spin forward to the 23rd and in a slightly confused post, Rawtwat employs his usual subtlety by saying "I hate the whole thing." He then goes on to say that although he's "not saying the ideas behind the policy aren't good", "the points... are either common sense or, in my opinion, bad."

The first thing to ask here is: Is Rawtwat against common sense? He certainly seems to be.

The second thing is that you have to wonder if Rawtwat ever bothers to read UESP at all. "How many authors have tried to write personal Walkthroughs outside of userspace?", he asks. Dozens, you dozy moron. At this very moment, a page called Oblivion:Helpful Armor is proposed for deletion. It contains the wonderful phrase "For now,we can stop there.Im constantly updating as I get more and more info.Keep checkin in,folks!" There's also Oblivion:Killing Umbra that says "Then kill her, i would advise you to block alot a take more than one sword because she can break your sword."

Rawtwat's main problem seems to be the bit about UESP not being a social network. The debate has been rumbling on elsewhere but Rawtwat seems determined to turn UESP into a cheap copy of Facebook.

The truth is that what Rawtwat is not is a decent administrator. He spends what little time he expends on the site insulting other users, something that has now expanded to include other administrators.

It's time he was removed from the post.
