I feel I ought to say that two of Anarchasshole's posts were deleted with extreme prejudice yesterday. I don't like censorship but after 10 minutes trying to work out what the fuck he was trying to say, I gave up.
AA - either learn to write or fuck off.
Actually, just fuck off. Thanks.

Anarchasshole Has No Soul
Just when you thought he had realised UESP was better off without him, back comes Anarchasshole with a typically stupid edit.
During the day, The Great Deceiver and Case Number 01 (HMS Victory / Itachi) had made a couple of undos to stop the Oblivion:Soul Gem page being overwhelmed with useless crap that only applies to one person's game. It finished when TGD made one big undo that also nixed AA's last edit to the page.
TGD's edit summary was "Undo several edits - pointless to list particular merchants as all magic stores stock gems and most of them are random rather than fixed". AA's undo was summarised with "Not only is the difference in price between filled player gems & filled merchant gems shown neither in the article nor on the talk page, but Timmen specifically recommended a merchant list, see Talk". So let's see if either of our combatants has a point.
First, we need to look at Asshole's claim that Timenn Made An Order on the talk page. Well... not quite. There was a question back in September 2009 that asked "Should I put something in on this page about soul gems restocking, since right now it looks like the only place to find this is on the Soul Trap page ?" Timenn's reply was (partially) "Good idea, the article could benefit from a ''Acquiring Soul Gems'' sections. It would be best to give general tips on the acquisition of the gems (especially the higher qualities) instead of a long list of locations." So Timenn explicitly didn't want a long list of locations. Okay, Anarchasshole is wrong on one count. Next?
Second, is the difference between different types of soul gems explained? Asshole's version was "Soul gems found empty, whether as loot or bought from merchants, have a coin value which depends on the grade of soul gem, which does not change if the player later fills them with a soul. Merchant gems sold or found filled with a soul have a coin value which depends on the level of the soul within, regardless of the grade of gem. The coin values below are for soul gems sold and found filled; all gems filled by the player will sell for the 'Empty' value."
He obviously didn't scroll down the page to find this: "Note: These IDs and values are set at the time you acquire a soul gem, and do not get changed when you fill the soul gem with a soul. In other words, if you pick up an empty grand soul gem, its value will be 200 gold. That value does not change when you fill it. Therefore, you can end up with grand soul gems containing grand souls with two different values, both 200 gold and 500 gold."
In other words, Anarchasshole made two points and they're both wrong. Next?

A New Idiot
Okay, technically Anarchangel isn't new, having made his first post back in July 2008, but it's in the last couple of weeks that he has become more active and shown just what a pain in the ass he is.
The first good example was this post on Timenn's talk page in response to an edit summary LGA made here. In classic idiot style, Anarchasshole's post is wrong, as rpeh points out. This causes a lovely little debate, with Anarchasshole desperately trying to prove his point and TGD pointing out how wrong he is. I'm not going to go through the whole series of posts, but this piece of assholery from AA gets an excellent put-down from TGD. Eventually, AA gets bored and slinks away.
Anarchasshole pops up on several talk pages but there's another good example on the Marksman Training page. First, he attacks GK for daring to revert his post, then when TGD (again) jumps in to tell him he's wrong, he goes off on a tangent and rpeh has to smack him again, including telling him to fuck off to a different site. AA accepts one point then moans and moans about the whole issue.
He even takes time out to call other users trolls. In this case, it's SerCenKing, one of the best editors on the site at the moment.
He's also too stupid to spot the difference between an article and a talk page.
There seems to be a simple test for people like this: if anybody includes patronising links to Wikipedia (like Shaggy Dog Tale, Other Stuff Exists, Straw Man, etc) they are an asshole.
