@Moooosey Please be patient. Username5243, unlike our resident troll, has a life outside the wiki. And it is a classic troll tactic, to try and overwhelm the admins with endless work. @Username5243

I'm not really "back".

But for the time being, I'm sticking around to give this community some support in its time of need.

As for "what we should do":

First thing to realize is that it will be completely impossible to stop the trolling completely. The acrhitecture of Wikia is simply ill-equpped for this task.

Second thing to realize is that the measures you are currently taking are still important, because they show the community that the admins care about the situation, so keep doing that. Just don't delude yourself that it will be a complete solution.

Third thing to realize, is that the main destructive power of a troll is in the way the people react to it. Take, for example, the way Edwin tries to mock/impersonate me or to paint P-bot in a bad light. Such things would only be a serious problem if people actually got convinced by what he is doing. Otherwise, it is nothing more than an annoyance.

So the most important measure we can take here, is to be united and to be respectful towards one another.

And the fourth thing to realize, is the basic truth of the current situation:

We are the decent folks who just want to live our lives in peace and discuss our common interest. Edwin is the dick whose sole purpose here is to ruin our party.

Take a few seconds to let this sink in. Think how pathetic a guy must be, to keep this kind of thing going for nearly two years. Think how pathetic a guy must be, to actually believe that spamming a wiki with trash somehow makes him a man.

See, no matter how annoying Edwin gets, he had already lost. No matter how much attention he gets, he had already lost. In fact, the lower he stoops in his attempts to annoy us (regardless of whether these attempts actually succeed), the more pathetic he proves himself to be.

In short:

We, the good guys, shouldn't be taking this little piece of sh*t so seriously.
