UnBooks talk:IRAQATTACK
Just for the record, IRAQATTACK gave up his reign of terror against us when he saw ED's pain series (quote), and joined the good side (he now holds a grudge against ED). Maybe that should be used in the article instead of that execution. --AAA! (AAAA) 05:25, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

Fucking Hell[edit]
You people should feel the utmost regret and full-on shame for this bullshit making it to the main page. Seriously. --THINKER 01:35, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
Hey fuck you thinkerer. The people have spoken. -- snug Ape (steal) (Riot Porn) 23:30, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
- Fifthed. It makes people laugh, it's well written, and the majority of people wanted it on the front page. To ignore those and complain about this or any article now purely on its subject matter is foolish. Imagine if the subject matter wasn't a ex failure of a troll, but, say, asperger's syndrome. And you disliked there being an article on that subject matter. Where would we be then? • Spang • ☃ • talk • 23:41, 20 Nov 2007

- The people are whored-to and easily swayed. And with the relationship of fors to againsts, its hardly a "people have spoken" consensus. Sorry, but out of context and not knowing the incident, its neither accessible nor particularly funny. There is satire, and then there is a thinly-veiled vanity article fashioned after pinpoint incidents that non-regulars neither know nor care about. Which category would this fall under?

CHILL OUT Y'ALL!!!
Thinker is a great contributor and one of the best writers that I've ever seen on the site. He's come close to leaving before, and that's the very last thing I want to happen again. He's entitled to his opinion, and I'm entitled to mine, and you're entitled to yours, but the article was still featured. Still though, despite the fact some people don't like everything that gets featured, it still gets featured, and we don't need to cause excess drama about it. I've voted against many a feature in my lifetime. I didn't find Grumpikins funny at all, but I deal with it. I limit my opinions to the voting page, and if everyone disagrees with me and it gets featured, I deal with it. No one likes drama, so let's not cause it over negligible bullshit like this. -- 04:08, 22 November 2007 (UTC)
- And to play Devil's Advocate (sorry Thinkerer), I think IRAQATTACK was hardly a case of whoring. It did stir up controversy, but it still got almost 20 votes against and almost 40 for. A lot of the For votes were, additionally, newbies and IPs, who are unswayed by site/user bias and the WP:DENY. If that many people and newbies vote For, then you know that it has to be good in some way, and if that many people vote Against, you also have to know that it was a fair vote. --
- Understood that Thinker is entitled to his opinion, but I think his comment was more than a little harsh. "The utmost regret and full-on shame" is very hard to respond civilly to. We all voted, it got featured, that's the end of that. – Sir Skullthumper, MD (criticize • writings • SU&W) 04:30 Nov 22, 2007
- I zoom in: That's the end of that. Wrong words have been said, points have been made, and amends have been somewhat made. Now let's nip this incident in the fucking bud. --

Pretty good?[edit]
The writing in the story is actually pretty good. 219.90.170.18 14:43, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
This is absolutely lovely[edit]
I am amazed, not only does this story seem to be about me, but it has such deep prose, It needn't be an unbook. More a religious text.
Fucking Hell[edit]
I liked it a lot. I usually don't finish articles 'cuz I get bored of them. Kudos! Mightywayne 23:20, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
The opening is a little boring (for a moment I thought it's a Matrix spoof) but it gets funnier and funnier as it moves forward. (202.153.251.43 07:38, 19 December 2007 (UTC))
A more detailed reply[edit]
Hey thinker, how 'bout you watch your language first? "Fucking Hell...bullshit". I don't see why you had to say anything at all. You had your chance to comment on VFH ("Fuck this Noise" if I recall correctly), most people didn't agree with you, there's no need to come here and be nasty about my article. How did you expect me to respond?
Guess what? Your opinion is worth no more than anyone else's, "great contributor" or not.
Also, there's no way I managed to whore 38.5 votes. -- snug Ape (steal) (Riot Porn) 22:06, 22 November 2007 (UTC)
