Note: This topic has been unedited for 3954 days. It is considered archived - the discussion is over.


I noticed on the VFS page this month that there's a sentiment that the system is more trouble than it's worth. It's led to numerous drama fests in the past (including the banning of PuppyOnTheRadio), and becoming an admin becomes an obsession for many. It leads to lobbying and votewhoring by people looking to secure an adminship.

I'm normally for democratization, but in the case, perhaps we should have a meritocratic system similar to a typical discussion board.

So, let's vote (irony): should VFS be abolished and replaced by something else entirely? If so, what? Saberwolf116 (talk) 19:59, July 3, 2012 (UTC)

  • Symbol against vote.svg Against. While I agree VFS is a um... bad system to see the least, the idea of a RfA system would never work on Uncyclopedia because unlike wikipedia which receives close to 50 edits per minute you could have too many administrators. So unless it could be modified into some way that could make it work here I guess we'll have to make do with VFS. (Although totally impractical if we could somehow make a secret ballet, say by using some third party where all votes are submitted to that could gain absolutely nothing from altering the votes would be the ultimate solution to all vote whoring forever and ever amen) ~Sir Frosty (Talk to me!)

  • Limit the amount a user can comment as they make their vote. Like limit them to two sentences worth of comment, if its any longer its ether really negative and probably not helpful or someone seriously has a boner for the candidate. ~Sir Frosty (Talk to me!) Proudly bogan 00:26, July 4, 2012 (UTC)
How is that an improvement? Limiting the length of comments limits the ability of folks to explain themselves, which is particularly problematic with a system that actively discourages voters from examining candidates' contributions and the like - on the rare occasion someone does take the time to look, anything they find can be particularly pertinent to all involved in the discussion.

1234 ~ 16px-Pointy.png 01:32, 4 July 2012

The long comments tend to lead to arguments and such which decreases efficiency and has also (although it may not be the intention of whoever wrote it) give the user it refers to the impression they are being bullied and picked on, which was the case with POTR and the comment you left you left last time. A 14 line critique of what they are doing wrong can instead of offering simple advice on how to improve themselves and make them a suitable candidate instead can leave the user feeling unwanted and unappreciated which leads to retaliation and poor decision making, admittedly your intensions may have been all well and good but a long list of reasons why it was a bad idea didn't help matters. But limited comment length is just my personal opinion as long winded comments don't help matters at all in my experience. ~Sir Frosty (Talk to me!) Proudly bogan 02:06, July 4, 2012 (UTC)
I also think there's nothing wrong with explaining a vote, but when a person uses a vote as a platform for pettiness and bullying beyond the necessary boundaries, then again, that's on them and not the system. --Littleboyonly.jpg TKFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK Oldmanonly.jpg 02:35, July 4, 2012 (UTC)
I don't think that was the intention but I'm fairly sure thats the way POTR took it as. As quoted from the forum he stated "I have now gotten to the point where I feel that I cannot contribute effectively here while she still remains as an admin, as her abuse of position and harassment and bullying of members based upon whim and favouritism is destroying the wiki." The VFS drama certainly was part of that. ~Sir Frosty (Talk to me!) Proudly bogan 02:57, July 4, 2012 (UTC)

The intention was to point out why he shouldn't be opped. I think it succeeded, although things did got a little out of hand.

1234 ~ 16px-Pointy.png 07:31, 4 July 2012

The getting out of hand part is why I don't like long comments, because not everyone can just ignore it/take it on board. ~Sir Frosty (Talk to me!) Proudly bogan 07:42, July 4, 2012 (UTC)
Yet the reason why POTR is no longer with us and why you are still here, despite Romartus's comment, is because you were able to take the criticisms (no matter how irrelevant) in stride, while he took them way too personally. Perhaps Lyrithya was being too harsh too, but again this is not the system's fault. If people are going to soapbox about other people, they will certainly find outlets other than VFS if that avenue has been deprived, too. --Littleboyonly.jpg TKFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK Oldmanonly.jpg 15:10, July 4, 2012 (UTC)

I had some ideas

I had the idea of a simpler method here. While most seem to like having a lot of user involvement, it's not really led to outcomes that are agreeable. This isn't like a final draft - but it might offer some direction.--Sycamore (Talk) 10:03, July 5, 2012 (UTC)

I don't like the idea of user nominations being so discreet. Couldn't we instead allow users to "apply for adminship" like in RfA, and then allow the subsequent screening to take place? --Scofield & Dudes 11:48, July 5, 2012 (UTC)
I like the idea of a secret nomination, but I would prefer a system where more than two admins do the voting. Maybe an instant runoff ballot on a private Google doc accessible, but anonymous to, all admins decides the top 3 candidates. --Littleboyonly.jpg TKFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK Oldmanonly.jpg 14:35, July 9, 2012 (UTC)
This idea is something I knocked together just to maybe change direction a bit - ZB's idea that I've voted for below seem to strike a balance of everyones take, while I have an idea for VFS based on personal preference. I appreciate the concerns of Scofield and I like TKF's idea. My main reason to keep things so 'discreet' is that despite the bulk of good contributers, we simply cannot depend on some people here to be sensible and as one admin stated to me a while back, most of the powers that be and community at large are often 'too scared' of standing up to certain drama creating types (who have very surprisingly resurfaced with "Their Opinions").--Sycamore (Talk) 18:11, July 11, 2012 (UTC)
That's an odd opinion. The only thing that I'm aware of where users have chosen not to voice their perspective is when they have been told that doing so will earn them a ban. Having a look at almost every forum we have ever had, users who have opinions or perspectives have felt free to express them. --                              Puppy's talk page10:26 11 Jul 22:26, July 11, 2012 (UTC)
Well there are opinions and there's some very neurotic characters who'll mansplain to the entire community about 'their needs'. I think the community should be involved and have the opportunity to express their views, though the impression that individuals can aggressively lobby, whore or cajole the community onto their demands is unacceptable. 'Have your say, but like fuck off a bit' should be the new motto.--Sycamore (Talk) 08:52, July 12, 2012 (UTC)

Drama

We've had a nice three or four month period relatively drama free. It's been nice...hasn't it? Quiet. A nice PLS. A gentle roll-over of featured articles. Time floating by. Nice jokes bouncing around talk pages. Pleasant love filling up the whole wiki. It's lovely isn't it? That's why I've decided to name myself the new anti-wiki-terrorism agent. My new powers are to kidnap anyone who engages in wiki-terrorism, bring them to an abandoned parking lot, waterboard them until they admit to what they did, then dump them on the moon, naked, with a chocolate bar and a litre of petrol. I don't have any clue that wiki-terrorism is. It is so ill defined I could make anything seem like wiki-terrorism. For instance...Mattsnow forgot to capitalise a word. That is blatant wiki-terrorism...but I'll let him off this time because his fragile mind couldn't cope with my interrogation techniques. I love you all...and so I don't want to have to use the patriot act against any of you. But I will if it means preserving the freedom of freedom. --ShabiDOO 03:01, July 4, 2012 (UTC)

Switch who can vote for round 3 & 4

Score: 2
  • My proposal is simple, currently users get the vote in round 3 and then the sysops take that result to vote in round 4 and eventually picks the new sysops. I propose we make round 3 (still with nominees selected by anybody) the sysop only round, anyone who is able to get x number of votes may proceed to round 4 where everyone gets 1 or 2 votes (depending on how many we want for that month). Now some of you ask, whats the point? We still have an admin only round and a user round. Will think of it this way. Currently its probably the most universally liked people that get past round 3 and into round 4 where its the best candidates that make it through. Essentially we get the most competent of the most popular elected, which isn't necessarily the best result. Reversing it will only allow the users that have the confidence of our administrators past round 3 and into round 4, where with a much shorter list of candidates users may vote more rationally and not just for their favorite user. ~Sir Frosty (Talk to me!) Proudly bogan 10:49, July 5, 2012 (UTC)
    • To be frank the problem is not favoritism, it's characters such as yourself constantly bringing up the issue or whining about how the community has turned against because you were not the 'Sysop candidate you felt you were'. The issue it not so much the voting of sysops, it's devising a VFS where we don't have this behavior or detrimental activities. These are just horrible to be around, see reputations such as Puppy's destroyed and take us collectively away from comedy. --Sycamore (Talk) 11:16, July 5, 2012 (UTC)
      • BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA I was pissed because being an ED admin seems a valid reason to vote someone done and the community has in part turned against me because of ED and proved by all the bullshit I received on irc and over email. Also I wanted new sysops simply because doing nothing but reverting vandals that are allowed to get to 50+ edits because nobody is awake to ban them and it fucking sucked and I'd had enough. But ok, I just won't except noms in VFS for a very long time now, tired of all the bullshit related to ED, also tired of being labeled as "a whiny little bitch who just wanted things to run more smoothly." ~Sir Frosty (Talk to me!) Proudly bogan 23:02, July 5, 2012 (UTC)
      • Actually I suspect your attitude in general might raise issues and misgivings about your involvements elsewhere (and their reputations/issues) . More often than not, keeping calm and building some kind of consensus is better than trying to bludgeon your points across... This is a maturity thing, and as I suspect, a life experience thing. That's not something that comes with extra vigilance towards vandals. Again the impetus is on you, not on the community to resolve this need for admin status:)--Sycamore (Talk) 23:56, July 5, 2012 (UTC)

New hierarchical structure

I saw the so-called fanboys at Bulbapedia (one of my all-time favorite wikis), and they seem to be organizing their admins into three tiers of adminship. Here's basically how it works.

Right above the administrators, but lower in rank than the bureaucrats, are the Senior Administrators, who "can add and remove users from the abuse usergroup, view the checkuser log, delete pages with large histories, and more." These guys are just a bit more experienced than your average admin. (Further information: Bulbapedia:Senior Administrators.)

Just below adminship is the Junior Administrator rank. (I've documented a proposal for this rank here.) Junior administrators can rollback, edit protected pages, view deleted pages, and show and hide individual edits to a page. I've added the extra privilege that they can archive old VFD and QVFD nominations. (Further information: Bulbapedia:Junior Administrators.)

Let's discuss. --Clicky! Sir CuteReshiramOnTheRadio [CUNPBJ'12PLS(0)] 16:22, July 5, 2012 (UTC)

I'm not kissing anyone's ass but if Zombiebaron, Lyrithya, ChiefjusticeDS, Romartus and someone else would be senior admins. And Shabidoo would be a great junior admin. Cat the Colourful (Feed me!) Zzz Zzz...morning? 16:37, 5 July, 2012 (UTC)
Zombiebaron's already a bureaucrat, and Shabidoo's a sockpuppet of a well-known admin. Yeah, Shabidoo should be a junior admin. --Clicky! Sir CuteReshiramOnTheRadio [CUNPBJ'12PLS(0)] 16:40, July 5, 2012 (UTC)
This proposition is technically impossible. We do not have local CheckUser, separate admin usergroups, an abuse usergroup, or the ability to hide individual edits. And I doubt that Wikia is going to turn any of these features of for use (especially local CheckUser). -- Brigadier General Sir Zombiebaron 17:02, July 5, 2012 (UTC)

Shabidoo should never be nominated as any kind of admin

While I appreciate the idea (though I'm not entirely sure if you guys are joking or not), I don't want to be an admin. There's no point as I wouldn't use the tools.

Zombiebaron's idea

Score: 8.333... in favor

Ok, so here's my idea. This is the VFS model that was used at the time that I was made an admin.

  1. The admins privately decide that more admins are required to keep the site running smoothly. This is because we the admins are the ones who are on the forefront of adminning the site. We collectively know how many pages get deleted and how many bans are given every day. We know when the site is running smoothly and when it is not.
  2. The admins hold a two week nomination process, on a sysop-protected forum page, in MiniLuv. Anyone can nominate anyone. Both for and against votes are encouraged.
  3. All registered users get to vote on the top scoring nominees from the previous round for the following 2 weeks, on a semi-protected Village Dump page. No against votes. No comments.
  4. Top scoring users become admins. The number of admins is determined based on the voting totals and general community consensus.

I think two votes for everyone in both of the voting rounds makes sense. -- Brigadier General Sir Zombiebaron 02:10, July 7, 2012 (UTC)

So, in this case, instead of everyone nominating anyone, only admins can nominate? Then, instead of Admins-only getting to vote in the final round, everyone does? It just switches when Users can vote from the first two rounds to the final round? Why was this switched away from in the first place?

I have no idea why it was switched in the first place. The other important change is the first step. -- Brigadier General Sir Zombiebaron 02:18, July 7, 2012 (UTC)
A compromise for this I think. ~Sir Frosty (Talk to me!) Proudly bogan 02:34, July 7, 2012 (UTC)
The switch occurred far, far earlier. I think MadMax and Strange but Untrue were the first admins to be elected by the system we currently have, and me and Mordillo rode the wave in shortly after. --Littleboyonly.jpg TKFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK Oldmanonly.jpg 07:51, July 7, 2012 (UTC)
While Zombie may have some kind of sort of point about the admins being on the "forefront" of how many pages are whatever and how many users are whatever, there isn't any explanation as to why it should be "private". Since when were things done out of sight? Without transparency and a clear dialogue and communication available? Its disturbing that things have come to this, where the admins will get some kind of "carte blanche" to do as they please and not even have to account for it. --ShabiDOO 17:32, July 7, 2012 (UTC)
The admins already do many important things in private. Mostly arguing. But we do also have civil policy discussion and what-not. There are some things that we simply cannot discuss on the wiki. One recent example of this that I can think of is when I banned PotR. Several admins approached me privately on IRC to discuss that event. The fact that the admins will be deciding when we need new admins doesn't mean that we will no longer be listening to the views of the community. I mean, if somebody were to hold a vote where a vast majority of the registered users were calling for new admins, and the admins just ignored it, that would be stupid. --Brigadier General Sir Zombiebaron 17:46, July 7, 2012 (UTC)
Thats even more disturbing that there are important conversations going on that we don't even know about. I hope they don't involve policy or major decisions.--ShabiDOO 20:24, July 7, 2012 (UTC)
Privacy also works pragmatically against interloping absentee admins returning to the community with little idea of what it's been like for the past few months having an immediate say in policy/important votes. --Littleboyonly.jpg TKFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK Oldmanonly.jpg 21:07, July 7, 2012 (UTC)
What kind of decisions are you guys making behind the scenes?--ShabiDOO 22:19, July 7, 2012 (UTC)
Beats me. I didn't even know we had a "scene." --Littleboyonly.jpg TKFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK Oldmanonly.jpg 22:20, July 7, 2012 (UTC)
And why precisely should "deciding if the wiki needs new admins" be held behind closed doors? Why can you not have that discussion with each other, at the VERY LEAST on the wiki, blocked so only admins can edit it? We should be able to see the positions of each admin, their reasons for and against and what the debate entails. Users should not be kept out of the dark about this. Theres no reason to. --ShabiDOO 12:51, July 8, 2012 (UTC)
It does not mean the admins won't entertain the whims of the community, it just means we can discuss it without fear of inciting drama, personal insult or implausibly high expectations of what will happen next. --Black Flamingo 13:13, July 8, 2012 (UTC)
But thats just putting bad faith on the community. Just because there was one particularily exagerated VFS drama, doesn't mean users should loose the right to know why a decision has been made. Just because there is the possibility of a problem doesnt mean you should hold your sessions behind closed doors. VFD has the potential to induce drama...does that mean the admins should now deal with VFD...and even more so behind closed doors? Besides, the big drama fest came from the "selection" of the admins and not wether to have admins. This solution just disenfranchises the community even more. Instead of having one step of the vote involving admins only making the decision, now, one of the steps is admins making the decision AND doing so with absolute secrecy. --ShabiDOO 18:35, July 8, 2012 (UTC)

On an ideal wiki, it would take an expert to distinguish a regular user from an admin or a junior admin and so forth, but it's different here because we're kind of an odd community that actually has vanity pages about admins being dirty turds. --QZEKЯOM Icons-flag-oly.pngIcons-flag-us.pngIcons-flag-jm.png Proud sponsor of Team Zombiebaron Tw$*ty Tw%#ve G*me$ FTW!

  • Yeah. This seems to strike the balance.--Sycamore (Talk) 20:05, July 8, 2012 (UTC)
  • Against, especially that commenting bit. Regular users can have as useful of things to say as admins, even if they usually don't bother; there is always potential for misuse with any system, but that most votes here have a comment attached is also evidence of the potential for good, and well-worded supportive comments can still make a world of difference for a user faced with a general lack of other support.
    I also just don't like the only op if it's needed model; just because more admins aren't specifically needed doesn't mean that, provided capable candidates, it would hurt to lessen the workload for the current admins to help prevent burnout and give then more time to do other things, like write articles. Because people still do that here, from what I understand. Write, I mean. Don't they? -Lyrithya 12:01, July 12, 2012 (UTC)

The Burninator's Idea (Joe The Burninator/Kyurem+Woodburninator)

Wait, I think we can have a very democratic application here. How about we get the general public and the admins to vote if we need to have any more admins every two months? Then if the voting is passed upon agreeing that we need more admins, you can nominate someone or yourself to become an admin. The top five candidates who received most votes will afterwards proceed to the third part: discussion with the sysops on why they want to become an admin. After the interview, the sysops proceed to vote, with bureaucrats' votes worth three (Zombiebaron et al.), and only sysops can vote.

So the process will be like this:

  • First week: General public decides if we need more admins. Needs for and against votes. This will take place every two months instead of monthly.
  • Second week: If we have enough votes for wanting more sysops, then we proceed to an election. You can nominate yourself or another person. Expect two-week voting process. For votes are only allowed, as the public will use a numbered system. The process will be explained:
    • To prevent rigging, the proportional voting system must be used.
    • The general public and sysops number their preferences for admin candidates, 1 being in most favor of being an admin, and the last number (7, 8, 9, 10, etc.) being in least favor. For example, if there are seven candidates, people number them from 1 to 7. Qzekrom will create the voting process.
    • The ones with the most votes are selected. The top five candidates with the most votes proceed to the next round. The rest are eliminated.
  • Fourth week: The top five candidates (the ones with the most for votes) are interviewed by sysops and bureaucrats. Expect a two-week process.
  • Sixth week: Sysops proceed to vote in a Hunger Games-style elimination round. Bureaucrats' vote is worth three votes. Again, two-week process.
  • Eighth week: The new sysops are announced

Addendum: The point of that that I agree with and could be used if we keep a system similar to the current is the 2 month rule. It takes users around 3 months (from what I've seen) to get to grips with the admin role. Two months is enough time though to see if they are coming to terms with it. It also reduces the "Yes/No" arguments to only 6 a year. 3 months would probably be a better term, as I don't recall seeing a VFS go to voting within 3 months of the previous.

Voting process

You asked me for it, here you go. Feel free to revise. I think rather than ranking all admin candidates, voters pick their top three choices to prevent ties, and so that no one gets offended finding that Joey Numbers ranked them sixth rather than fifth. (And it saves brainpower for writing articles.) (Though admins can pick more than three.) During the voting process, candidates are free to do campaigning as long as they aren't misleading.

Then, the votes get tallied. Each vote gets put in as follows:

  • 1nd place: 50 points
  • 2st place: 38 points
  • 3th place: 25 points
  • 4rd place: 13 points

The top five candidates are then nominated for the second round, and the next two become poopsmiths. --QZEKЯOM Icons-flag-oly.pngIcons-flag-us.pngIcons-flag-jm.png Proud sponsor of Team Zombiebaron Tw$*ty Tw%#ve G*me$ FTW! Let's go for the g^@d! 22:56, July 7, 2012 (UTC)

Quick note on the instant runoff suggestion and the two month rule

The two month rule is a rule in which two new admins are picked every two months, while the rest will choose becoming a poopsmith or a rollback as a consolation prize. In the fourth and fifth weeks, there will be debates and conversations between candidates. All of the current goings-on regarding the debate and conversations for the VFS will be promoted on the UnSignpost and the VFS section of UnNews. The final three weeks will be a trial run on how the new admins are going. As a final note regarding campaigning for VFS, advertising campaigns will be placed on the board (where the PLS announcements and so on are placed), and must be approved by the Advertising Ombudsman (a bureaucrat). GiratinaOriginForme.png |Si Plebius Dato' (Sir) Joe ang Kemador CUN|IC Kill Don't be fooled. I'm an Aussie too. | 08:27, July 9, 2012 (UTC)

Your proposal there has several flaws in it:
  • We do not need 2 new ops every 2 months, currently we have been getting 1 - 2 every 6 months and some see this as too many. You do the math 2 every 2 months = 12 a year and with our current user-base size that is far too much.
  • Poopsmith is a ridiculous "consolation prize" we have 3 active ones and 3 is plenty we archive 3 voting pages on the whole site and administrators also do this task as well, granting an otherwise meaningless title is a) a poor prize b) Pointless, we have enough and don't need anymore (I say this as a poopsmith as I can typically archive the 3 pages in a the space of a few minutes, without any help)
  • If you want rollback, be like a normal person and just ask Zombiebaron or Thekillerfroggy giving it as a second prize is a dumb idea because typically (under your proposal) anyone who comes second is going to already be a rollbacker (I base this off the fact we haven't had a non-rollbacker promoted to admin since 2008.)
  • Five weeks? As TKF pointed out everything you proposed can easily be done in half that time
  • Potential opping candidates before last VFS already did banter, argue and carry on. It's called IRC we argue and debate a lot there and guess where it typically will take us? No where
  • You are proposing a system that involves debates and voting almost like a presidential election, and yet we can't even manage a simple vote what on earth makes you think this will work?
  • UnNews is a namespace for humor and making fun of IRL events and being funny, it is not for carrying on about VFS which nobody in the real world cares about

NEW PROPOSAL

I'm so fucking tired of forum debates. VFS sucks. It will always suck. Nothing you do will ever improve it to the point where less than half of the user base can find some problem with it. We have mob rule here, and mob rule produces three things: tyrants, angry people, and angry dead people. If this were a country, I might give a shit. But it isn't a country, it's a comedy website. So I have a NEW FUCKING PROPOSAL (read closely, chimps, because it's about to get complicated):

NO OPS EVER AGAIN, WITH THREE EXCEPTIONS:

  1. If you give Zombiebaron sexual favors, instant oppage. Boom.
  2. If you give Thekillerfroggy sexual favors, instant oppage. Boom.
  3. If you post again in this forum, you die. Oh, wait, did I say there were three exceptions? Consider this one "oppage in Hell".

Who's with me!?!?

    Yes, but certain pompous blowhards who shall remain nameless here would just say "I am not being a dick. I am simply offering up a 10,000-character comment (which I have, incidentally, chosen to label a 'non-vote') because that's how we do things on Wikipedia."

    In a Wikipedian manner, let's reserve the voting area for votes, and allow the comments in a separate section underneath, or preferably, on a talk page. That means that when someone wants to non-vote, they can do that, and write war and frigging peace if they like, but at least a vote is counted as a vote, and commentary is counted as commentary.

The collegiate system

At the present we have members of the community broken into various time zones. I propose we tabulate how many members we have in a particular time zone, and give that timezone a number of "collegiate" votes accordingly. Then the voting is done broken down into timezones. The majority of votes in a particular timezone means that all of those collegiate votes are put toward that candidate. That seems the only logical method to me. Oh, and terms cannot last longer than 2 years, and an admin cannot have more than 2 consecutive terms. And the admin candidates can be chosen by parties representing the retention of existing articles, or "conservatives", and the other party can represent the growth of new articles, or "liberals". And an individual cannot become an admin via merit alone, but by the country of their birth. That way we become the most powerful wiki on the web. GOD BLESS UNCYCLOPEDIA! --                              Puppy's talk page12:59 11 Jul 00:59, July 11, 2012 (UTC)

This is a misrepresentation of conservatives and liberals! Conservatives want to conserve the supreme position of featured articles while leaving every other article to starve to deletion for all they care. Liberals seek to divert the focus away from the featured articles, towards the often ignored majority of non-featured articles.

MasterWangs' great idea with a 100% chance of success!!!

All of you stop bitching and write comedy -- Do you know why this system doesn't work? Because you all have it set it out in your head and have convinced yourselves that something will go wrong. In my humble opinion it's more an attitude problem more than an actual problem with the system. If you all could try and be more positive about it you might find it works.

So my advice is as follows:

  1. Leave the current system
  2. Adopt a more positive mind set about it
  3. Watch the results when it starts running more smoothly
  4. Go back to writing comedy

I personally think it's a mind thing, does anyone agree? --MasterWangs Dildoriken.gif CUNT and proud of it! 08:20, July 15, 2012 (UTC)
