Forum:Forum suggestion
I have an idea. What if we had a forum category specially designated for whoring articles? That way, people can post their articles in that forum, and the individuals who hate article whores can just ignore it, while those who want to see some clever articles can go there? By compartmentalizing it that way, it would prevent whoring in other places. User:Mrthejazz/sig 13:53, July 11, 2010 (UTC)
- No... it really wouldn't prevent it other places. Then there'd just be more whoring... I've seen it before. >.< On the other hand, it might stop some people. Might. Think... would it stop you? ~ Lyrithya *shifty eyes* (words) (actions) -- 20100711 - 14:11 (UTC)
- You lost me at the word "think". I didn't come here to think. I came here to show you my cool new article. --EMC [TALK] 15:25 Jul 11 2010
- It would totally stop me. Now if anybody whores anywhere else, you can just link them to the "whoring" forum and then taunt them with shame. But then, I've never seen it put into practice either. Just a thought, peeps. User:Mrthejazz/sig 19:43, July 11, 2010 (UTC)
- On the other hand, where would the whoring for the whoring forum end up at the start? o_O ~ Lyrithya *shifty eyes* (words) (actions) -- 20100713 - 00:35 (UTC)

- We already have such a place.... -- Sir Mhaille (talk to me)
- No! It's more fun mentioning that thing I wrote that one time, which was awesome. Sir Modusoperandi Boinc! 21:04, July 11, 2010 (UTC)
- sounds like vfh. "hea guys!!!! i rote an atiecel and therfoee it's worthty of FEEEETURDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD" *self-noms and then wanks* --nachlader 22:54, July 11, 2010 (UTC)
- Well, ideally, this place would be a place to put your article so other people can see it, put it on VFH for you, and then you get to not look like an asshole. I mean, imagine how many good articles we aren't seeing just because people are being too modest?User:Mrthejazz/sig 04:11, July 12, 2010 (UTC)
- "Too modest"? Did you just get here? Sir Modusoperandi Boinc! 05:43, July 12, 2010 (UTC)
- Hey, just because there plenty of un-mod... actually, what does 'modest' even mean? Crap, I lost my whole argument. ~ Lyrithya *shifty eyes* (words) (actions) -- 20100713 - 00:35 (UTC)

- A place to whore our dull citycruft, you say? —Pelozurian (talk) 22:57, 11 July 2010 (UTC)
What, you mean like the Uncyclopedia:Collaboratory, that MrN set up, and tried to whore tirelessly? That was originally supposed to be a place to whore your stuff, and kind of changed mission statement. So yeah, this idea happened before, and kinda fizzled out. But, of course, it may be different this time! --UU - natter 09:12, Jul 12
I've never
whored out my articles but if there was a place you could visit for that you'd all have syphilis! ~ Avast Matey!!! Happytimes are here!* ~ ~ 12 Jul 2010 ~ 06:52 (UTC)
To Answer the Question
I think it's a bad idea Jazzy and will involve voting favours being openly 'traded'. It will be sordid and involve pole dancing, baby oil and other enticements to get people to vote for you..it's also called politics. --RomArtus*Imperator ® (Orate) 15:36, July 12, 2010 (UTC)
- It's baby oil? I've been using baby powder! Sir Modusoperandi Boinc! 15:50, July 12, 2010 (UTC)
- No it wasn't baby powder but something a bit more South American. --RomArtus*Imperator ® (Orate) 16:04, July 12, 2010 (UTC)
- What's to prevent people from openly trading voting favors now? I'm just suggesting a place to show off work, because sometimes work is overlooked, you know?User:Mrthejazz/sig 17:56, July 12, 2010 (UTC)

That's kind of
the reason I made VFG. 18:48, July 12, 2010 (UTC)
- What's a VFG? Is that like that VEGA mechanical toy in the first Star Trek movie? Aleister 00:38 13 7
- I think you're thinking of vegans... aren't those a kind of zombie? ~ Lyrithya *shifty eyes* (words) (actions) -- 20100713 - 01:08 (UTC)
- Yeah, maybe Hyperbole is talking about making zombies, or making vegans. i don't know. Vegans are usually zombies, but sometimes they can fly and stay healthy for hundreds of years. But VFG? Vafegee? Maybe it's a Romanian football player. Aleister 1:10 13 7
- Guys, nobody cares about VFG. Duh. Why do you think that one unspeakable template was deleted? —fj0j3ddjoaw;rfjaew (r30qjd) 01:15, 13 July 2010 (UTC)
- Now you got me eatin' my spinich. Lots of people care for vegans and zombies. And Butt Poop was offed because the people who wanted it saved didn't know it was on VFD, and we don't have a process to bring pages back. Zombie pages. Hmmmmmmmmm. Maybe to bring a page back we should have a Zombie vote, a VFR (vote for resurrection). I haven't seen many I'd bring back, but "Non-huffable Kitten" is one for sure, and Butt Poop template because of the integrity of VFG (Very fine giraffes?). Aleister 1:22 13 7
- Hey Cool. Well, problem solved then. User:Mrthejazz/sig 03:17, July 13, 2010 (UTC)

I have a far better idea
Let's all stop whoring! That way we would gain back our... OK, I lost the thread again = self-pwnage. -- Style Guide 10:55, July 14, 2010 (UTC)
