This isn't one of those "I'm leaving Uncyclopedia" speeches, just to get that out of your head straight off. This is something a little different.

Ever since I've come here, I've had a load of fun. I liked writing. I liked reading. I liked voting. I liked working with Cajek to get the UnSignpost going. I liked getting people together to form the UnSkype group. And recently, I damn well enjoyed organizing (or attempting to organize, at any rate) a night of writing and voting mayhem that I don't even have a proper name for yet.

I liked these things, and still do. The problem doesn't lie with Uncyclopedia. It apparently lies with me.

See, ever since I came here, I haven't been able to stop pissing people off.

Old users come in and see me on IRC and make snide comments about "who opped this dipshit?" People have me on their /ignore lists. When I'm not taking insults to my face, I'm hearing rumors of complaints about me elsewhere.

I don't exactly know why everyone and their mum seems to be angry with me, and I suspect it's a different reason for everyone. But it's getting to the point where I can't ignore it any longer.

So I'm taking a break, in the interest of not pissing yet more users off. It has really never been my intent to do so. I seem to be mass-producing enemies around here - or at least people who find me irritating enough to block me from their chat clients, facebook, and elsewhere. I'd very much like it to stop, and walking away seems to be the only way.

When I come back, and I'm sure I will - this site has been a wonderful diversion since I stumbled upon it several summers ago - I can't say if it'll be under this username, or a different one. I will be reading this forum, though. I'm more than willing to take constructive criticism about how to improve my behavior so people won't find me so outright annoying.

I apologize for any inconvenience caused. – Sir Skullthumper, MD (criticize • writings • critchat) 06:00 Jul 08, 2010

Eh? whatchu talkin bout willis? Everybody loves you. Just stop going to IRC, it's full of asshats, bots and Olipros. Dangerous place that is. ~ 06:02, July 8, 2010 (UTC)

People dislike you? News to me. Then again, I don't use IRC, Facebook, or Skype. Well, my only complaint is that you could stand to be a little nicer when criticizing people, but that's a minor point. You seem fine overall. Frankly, I'm puzzled.--Sir HELPME Talk (more? --> CUN ROTM NOTM Pleb USS Pees SK ) On Thursday, 06:04, July 08 2010 UTC

What I find most disturbing about this post is the line, "When I come back ... I can't say if it'll be under this username, or a different one." Guys. We're being watched. Love,  

Lulz. MegaPleb • Dexter111344 • Complain here 06:48, July 8, 2010 (UTC)

For the record, my IRC antics earlier were not sincere. I had to go run some errands. I love you. But not as a man loves a woman. I love you as a man loves a deep man friend. --EMC ^[TALK] 07:09 Jul 8 2010

I'd like to take this opportunity to say, "I have a penis." Thank you. -RAHB 10:09, July 8, 2010 (UTC)

We don't hear enough about your penis these days, RAHB. This little update will help to ease all our minds, I'm sure. --UU - natter 11:28, Jul 8

This is the internet. Its existence, nay its very foundation, is built on the interconnected miasma of people being a "continuous annoyance" to people. That's what it's for. Sir Modusoperandi ^Boinc! 16:36, July 8, 2010 (UTC)

Fuck Me

Skully came back.....when did that happen? -- Sir Mhaille  (talk to me)

A few months ago, but it looks like you're a bit late. Love,  

News to me

You just pulled off one of the best events in Uncy this year. I've not heard one negative word about you (although I don't do the Skype gang-bang, or Facebook, or even IRC, in fact maybe everyone hates you off-site and hasn't told us UnSite dwellers). Hyperbole left for various reasons, and he's moving into the asshole status the longer he stays away and doesn't drop in to say hi (he made his point, and then left, which is cool, but then he kept lefting, which isn't). So, all in all, you are one of the many joys around here. So I, for one at least, have no idea what you're talking about. Aleister 12:07 8 7

Coincidentally, I just decided earlier today that I'd take another swing at existing. pillow talk 20:31, July 8, 2010 (UTC)

OH WELL --nachlader 12:14, July 8, 2010 (UTC)

I'm leaving

This site well and good and all, but it has slowly turned into a pile of sad, boring shit. I feel like it is time for me to leave. Goodbye all you fgts. I don't intend to contact any of you. MegaPleb • Dexter111344 • Complain here 15:58, July 8, 2010 (UTC)

FUCK WELL OFF --nachlader 15:59, July 8, 2010 (UTC)

This is why Nach is the only one of you people I like. Also, JK! I ain't leaving! Only fgts leave! MegaPleb • Dexter111344 • Complain here 16:05, July 8, 2010 (UTC)

But seriously

One of you is leaving. It opens the void for a new admin or two. I'm not saying who... MegaPleb • Dexter111344 • Complain here 16:13, July 8, 2010 (UTC)

Dexter, your responses show you haven't read the forum at all. This isn't leaving. This is taking a break to figure out how I can stop being a continuous annoyance to people. I would really appreciate it if you helped me out on this one, instead of trolling me. – Sir Skullthumper, MD (criticize • writings • critchat) 16:26 Jul 08, 2010

"Taking a break" means there will be one less admin. I'm just trying to get that power vacuum filled immediately. I'd appreciate it if you would put what's best for the site ahead of some "Waaaaaaaaaaaah! Niobody lieks me!"-bullshit. Either stay so we won't need a new admin or just shut up cause frankly you're not acting as an admin should. MegaPleb • Dexter111344 • Complain here 16:32, July 8, 2010 (UTC)

I'm not contesting the admin bit. Nor am I begging for attention, here. All I want to know is how I can become less irritating to the site in general, because I see more evidence of it every time I come here, to IRC, or to Skype. This isn't to convince me to come back - I will be back. This isn't to make me feel better about myself - I'm having a good run IRL. This is me asking a question and hoping very much for an answer. Not just for my benefit, but for the benefit of the many people annoyed by my behavior. – Sir Skullthumper, MD (criticize • writings • critchat) 16:36 Jul 08, 2010

Have you ever stopped to think that most of the hatred against you is a joke? Honestly. Get on Skype right now so I can call you a fudge packer. Nate is asleep, so he can't. Also, we could discuss this further on Skype than on here. So get on, big boy. It's just me, Ape, and Readmesoon. We need you. MegaPleb • Dexter111344 • Complain here 16:40, July 8, 2010 (UTC)

Dude, I never found you annoying before, but this whiny bitchfaggotry is just a little bit gay. -- overwrought Ape (swallow) (Riot Porn) 16:42, July 8, 2010 (UTC)

You're just being paranoid. You probably get all uptight when you see a penis on chatroulette! Sir Modusoperandi ^Boinc! 16:54, July 8, 2010 (UTC)

you're being very paranoid. do what poland did in 1939 and wait it out to see if you aren't being invaded on two sides after all. --nachlader 16:56, July 8, 2010 (UTC)

I've never heard the word "aresetwerp" before. Sounds intriguing. --Sir HELPME Talk (more? --> CUN ROTM NOTM Pleb USS Pees SK ) On Thursday, 05:12, July 08 2010 UTC

It's not. It's like a town in Belgium. In fact, it is a town in Belgium. Sir Modusoperandi ^Boinc! 18:53, July 8, 2010 (UTC)

So this is all about Skype and IRC? So this has nothing to do with Uncy, which is solely this site and nothing else. Lots of people left to communicate on things called face-books, or skypes, or twitting, and stopped writing. The only one who came out of the quicksand and back into Uncy better off is Ape, who is writing good stuff more often, and Ethine, who is tearing up the site with usefulness. So this is much ado aboout nothing to do with Uncy. And the next time one of you is on facing books or whatever its name, please ask DrStrange to come back and write again here, we miss him and want to vote him writer of the month again instead of that asswipe nachlader who keeps trying to cut his own throat (not this time n!) A Skull & and Bones man 19:05 8 7

BUT I'VE BEEN SOCIAL NETWORKING UP ENTIRE ARTICLES AND YOU'RE NEVER THERE TO VOTE FOR IT --nachlader 19:12, July 8, 2010 (UTC)

Well Al, you should really follow DrStrange on Bookface. He's quite busy, but he manages to entertain me there all hours of the night. Sexually. *wink, wink*

But seriously, DrStrange has just been a bit busy. That's all. And I talked to Skully earlier. We're now going to focus on the podcast rather than dealing with some of the people who have defecated on Skully as of late. MegaPleb • Dexter111344 • Complain here 19:32, July 8, 2010 (UTC)

I'm annoyed by the people who defecate on Skullhumper... Why did nobody tell me? I would've been down on him like a sack of uranium potatoes. --nachlader 19:54, July 8, 2010 (UTC)

From personal experience

Breaks work wonders when it comes to being less of an asshole. Or you can just attempt to repeatedly permaban all the people who got your goat. It's like screaming into a pillow!

Or, for real, you can leave short messages on their talk page after they've wronged you: the personal intervention element usually works the best unless you're dealing with an undying troll or an exceptionally stubborn imbecile, in which case you can just ban them for real for being a bigger dick than you. 9 times out of 10 this method works. Whatever you do, though, don't make a video of yourself.

If all else fails, a break usually works best. After all, Uncyclopedia sorta sucks. There's plenty better things you can do with your time.

Take it from the unashamed biggest asshole on the site, though: you're not really a dick and I'm pretty sure anyone around these parts worth their salt would agree. -- T​K​F​​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​UU​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​CK 20:09, July 8, 2010 (UTC)

I agree with TKF. He really is the biggest asshole on the site. Sir Modusoperandi ^Boinc! 20:12, July 8, 2010 (UTC)

I got your goat? Wow, I totally missed that. Is that what ate all the grass in my back garden? You can have it back any time you like, if you can find it. --UU - natter 21:32, Jul 8

Drama

There seems to be an unusual amount of it these days. I blame Cajek.

I hope this has been helpful. pillow talk 20:33, July 8, 2010 (UTC)

Uh

I leave all the time and I don't go out of my way to make some stupid topic about it. Buttmunch. Besides, you were gone for like, a really long time and then came back for a few months at most. So what's the point of this is what I'm trying to say. EDIT: Now that I've actually read your message, I'd like to make it clear that I hate yo' guts. Check out all of the times I've nominated you for Gobshite of the Month. I wanted to make it some sort of running gag, but it didn't really catch on, and since only a few people ever come by that page, I've stopped doing it. You still suck though hahahaha *pbbl* --Cock Sucking Whore from Hell 21:37, July 9, 2010 (UTC)

Disregard that, I suck cocks. --Cock Sucking Whore from Hell 23:43, July 9, 2010 (UTC)

You should first

unblock this dude and that guy before leaving.

Dr Skullthumper, it is most probably not you. You go by "free" choice, others are permabanned for protesting what goes on here. The general atmosphere on Uncyclopedia has changed a lot over the years and everybody is treated with the same contempt nowadays. Sarcasm and insults have taken the place of real humor and the social "behaviour" here and especially on IRC #uncyclopedia is pitiful. People are being insulted and when they react and get angry they are banned. Serious discussions here are quickly filled with so called funny but cynical and sarcastic filth and nobody has any respect for anything here anymore. When people protest thij are termed assholes and permabanned for things that were initiated by the people that banned them.

For a lot of people, the good times on Uncyclopedia are over. It is now a question of who has power and the struggle between the wannabees, who are probably the ones who have been talking behind your back. Be assured that on other *pedia's there are a lot of people that use Uncyclopedia as a bad example of how a wonderful site can deteriorate. Maybe someone here can stand up and reconsider Uncyclopedia's social policy and put a stop to the low-grade tendency. But chances are big that such a person will be banned before he can say "admin-abuse". Greetings and good luck. 80.127.53.170 22:30, July 14, 2010 (UTC)

I don't think things are all that bad on the wiki, but I agree that #uncyclopedia is a real problem. Probably 95% of the drama starts there and oozes its way over here. I try to avoid it. pillow talk 22:34, July 14, 2010 (UTC)

Agreed Hype. --UU - natter 08:56, Jul 15

Fuck you, stop trying to bring up old drama. If you hate the site, go away and edit yours.--Sir HELPME Talk (more? --> CUN ROTM NOTM Pleb USS Pees SK ) On Wednesday, 10:37, July 14 2010 UTC

First of all, permaban that IP for daring to speak up. Asshole. And jeez, if it's bad here I'd hate to see good. This is a wonderful site full of wonderful people and well written pages. Oh, probably lots of stuff starts on the off-site communication channels, like as Dr.Skull says, blacklisting some people. That's low down and dirty if true, and someone in that circle should call a halt to it and find out where the problem came from in the first place (see Scientology emotional tone 1.1) and stop that shit. Anyone who divides along the lines of "let's boycott that person" or "let's boycott that page" carries the problem with them, and all someone has to do is say "Fuck no, nigga. You're talkin' 'bout my brothers and sisters". The only guy we should ban and avoid is 80.127.53.170, who should be run out of site on an electronic rail, just so we have someone to pin the tail on. Then we can unban him tomorrow, and welcome him back with cookies (I have all the cookies!!!) and Indian burns. Aleister 20:53 14 7

I have been reading the reactions to Dr Skullthumpers honest and frightfully self-accusing statements, and they prove my point entirely. People here have come to think that insults, curses and total disrespect for people and their feelings are really funny. But it is the kind of fun to see people breaking their skulls on a rock and hilariously roaring with laughter. No respect whatsoever and when even the admins state, that insulting people and generally behaving like an ass is the sole purpose of the internet, then the matter is quite hopeless, for you seem to think that this way of behaving is normal. 80.127.53.170 23:06, July 14, 2010 (UTC)

And who are you? Please expose yourself, and then tell us your user name, so we can give you cookies and offer you a massage. Are you aware how much fun it is on people's talk pages, how much play goes on here? If you stick around you will see that the insults are all in fun, blow me now, and if you haven't seen the quality writing here you need glasses, or, if you wear glasses, a double-lens of glasses. Now expose yourself, come on, measure it and post the results. And then write something funny and play and play and play. Aleister few minutes later

And who are you? Who cares who I am or who you are? Why don't you look at what I say? Do you think, for example, that someone calling him/herself "cock sucking whore from hell" is really funny? Do you think calling people an asshole is funny, because it is said on Uncyclopedia? It is the other way aroud. Uncyclopedia is funny because of humor, not because people fill it with pre-adolescent bravery. Believe me, a lot of people still love uncyclopedia, although their heart cries because they have been banned because of things initiated the hungry wolves here who hunt in packs. 80.127.53.170 23:22, July 14, 2010 (UTC)

If you hate Uncyclopedia so badly, why are you taking the time to post on it? --Andorin Kato 23:24, July 14, 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, I thought it was amusing when Roman Dog Bird referred to himself as a cocksucking whore from hell. That gave me a mental picture of him emerging from hell, closing his lips around my cock, and making slurping noises until I ejaculated into his mouth. It was not an altogether unpleasant mental picture, either. pillow talk 23:26, July 14, 2010 (UTC)

Urgh...what the hell? There are children reading this right now... R7 (NL) 23:28, July 14, 2010 (UTC)

Pfft... you're 15, Roye. You're practically geriatric around here. pillow talk 23:35, July 14, 2010 (UTC)

So what? Do you expect that the age of 15 says that that is the time when they should like pornographic idea's and things? When they don't have to say and think "yuck!" or "what the...?"? This is just disgusting and other people with even an ólder age would be also very sick of it. I don't know how it is with the idea's of a few people, but, it is how the way it is, and this way is kind of bizar. Wait, kind of? No, a bit more. R7 (NL) 23:46, July 14, 2010 (UTC)

You hit the nail on the head, Roye. I expect that the age of 15 says that that is the time when they should like pornographic idea's and things. pillow talk 23:47, July 14, 2010 (UTC)

I can understand that the people here don't have a very good feeling about the speak against, like that they don't like the Uncy, but I like it. Most of it it's funny but the things that have been said here, with comments ón the "against" comments, with a few who want to make a point clear, is less funny. We all want to have a better planet, so a better Uncyclopedia, but these things aren't very helping with it. I go to sleep. G'night. R7 (NL) 23:46, July 14, 2010 (UTC)

It is not a question of prudence, but of humor. It's just not funny, only groce and insulting and degrading. Nothing to do with humor. and that's my point exactly. People think they are provoking others with this kind of "fun", but they are just degrading themselves and degrading this whole site, as this kind of "culture has permeated the atmosphere here. And the people are even proud of it, as anyone can see. 80.127.53.170 23:50, July 14, 2010 (UTC)

If you don't like it, go away. --Andorin Kato 23:50, July 14, 2010 (UTC)

But i said what I had to say to Dr. Skullthumper and you people proved my point, so what more can I say? Happy Holidays and don't buy any wooden dollars. And by the way: like I said: People love Uncyclopedia. They just loathe the way it has been going here. "Go away" is no argument.80.127.53.170 23:53, July 14, 2010 (UTC)

IP, being frustrated about people mistreating each other is one thing. But if you can't stand a little occasional pornographic or scatological humor, frankly, you should never have come to this site in the first place. pillow talk 23:54, July 14, 2010 (UTC)

Hyperbole, you are exactly right, with the emphasis on "a little". 80.127.53.170 23:57, July 14, 2010 (UTC)

IP, I must say you've convinced me of our grossness. I ask you to spread the word amongst your clean sites that we will now stop using any age-inappropriate language. Thanks for opening my eyes. Aleister head hung low 00:23 16 7

I don't think you realize that it's a joke. Yeah, I know, it's a crazy idea, but maybe we aren't actually being total dicks to each other, and we're just kidding around! I know, crazy idea. For example: I insult Paizuri and vandalise his userpage all the time, and I was thinking of nominating him for UOTM next month. We don't really mean to hurt each other. Dexter may have been rude and full of memes when he talked to you, but he had a real point. Seriously, lighten up.--Sir HELPME Talk (more? --> CUN ROTM NOTM Pleb USS Pees SK ) On Thursday, 01:25, July 15 2010 UTC

Dudes, this guy (80.127.etc) doesn't hate Uncyclopedia, he's just sad about the behaviour of many of you. Be respectful guys... don't make fun of people when they try to explain something. You should accept criticism, not avoid it by banning people and screwing up their userpages (just to keep the site funny - ironicly...). It's very weak of you to avoid important messages of other fellows. It's sad that Uncyclopedia doesn't want to corporate with other Uncyclomedia projects. The "GO AWAY, YOU PENIS"-attitude is far from any kind of friendliness and it stops people to communicate with this site. Also, in my opinion it's very weird that two users (him and (him), who wanted to tell their view to others about some important thing (if you might like it or not), are banned on Uncyclopedia. They have always been respected on all other uncycs they communicate with, except Uncyclopedia. That's no hazard. – Preceding unsigned comment added by 178.232.220.155 (talk • contribs)

This is the American Uncyclopedia. We don't respect nuffin'. Except the flag! U S A! U S A! Sir Modusoperandi ^Boinc! 14:06, July 15, 2010 (UTC)

WTF? 178.232.220.155 14:11, July 15, 2010 (UTC)

What I meant to say is that I've always tried to be respectful of others here and that I would contribute to other Uncyclopedias, except that I can barely speak English, much less other languages. Sir Modusoperandi ^Boinc! 14:18, July 15, 2010 (UTC)

CH, really, shut the fuck up. DGNeree's ban has nothing to do with "stating his opinions" it's about being an arrogant ass that never bothered to try and discuss his ban with the banning admin, so stop making a martyr from him. He's very well respected by the two users in meta and the 15 users in Oncy, really, a shining beacon to us all. Same goes to you really, you bring your unwanted drama over here, asked nicely to stop and kept acting like an ass. So yes, "penis penis go away". Am I more clear now? ~ 21:35, July 15, 2010 (UTC)

A few words, yall

Is uncyclopedia being ruined? This is an essential question that is brought up here. Are we suffering from groupthink like the utterly sane folks at conservapedia? Are we suffering from "poop poop fart ass" syndrome like the refined folks at "E.D."? Are we suffering from "Troll the shit out of each other" syndrome like the rest of the internet? To answer this question honestly, I say...possibly. I have always found it funny how conservapedia has labeled us devil worshipers and ED has labeled us "A bunch of Christ worshipping fags" or something.

To be honest, all that stuff is the lowest common denominator. It is much easier to do poop humor than it is to do non-poop humor, or to do poop humor in a clever way. Just ask Bob Saget. BUT uncyclopedia is about the creative process. Have you ever created something, be it a drawing or a sculpture, only to have it go horribly wrong? Did you learn from it? To me, "low humor" and to some extent it's blood brother cousin "ur dumb LOL" humor, is just the ying for the yang. You could sensor yourself sure from all of that stuff, but to do so is to deny the creative process. Sometimes the best works of art, or humor, or anything else come from the same people who do the worst stuff. Is it possible that we've gone downhill over the years, slowly degrading into E.D. assyness? Well, consider in 2005 both Niggers and Poop Cuisine were featured. Yes folks, there was "lowbrow" even in 2005.

Of course, it's easy to say that the newbies are ruining the Golden Days of Uncyclopedia, that everything that was is slowly being ruined and shit on, but everybody who looks to the past feels that way. I guarantee you that when this generation of uncyclopedians move on with their lives, there will be those that look back at the 2015ers and say they're ruining everything too.

Here's the real question: Should we care? No. Lowbrow has always existed, and while I agree that people need to stay civil to each other, I don't expect it, because I know human nature. By nature, we argue, fight, and hate each other. We have to work at it not to do that, so it is nice when we get along, but I don't expect it. Likewise, there will be lowbrow humor at times and highbrow humor at times, the site will change, whether for the better or worst remains to be seen. Really, it's a question of the individual. You can whine and complain about what the site is doing, but as long as there are people doing lowbrow, you'll see lowbrow, and while people are doing highbrow, there will be highbrow. Highbrow is the greater humor, no doubt about it. But if we see a greater quantity of lowbrow, it only means that the highbrow will stand out more.

Summary: Don't worry about it. It is what it will be. A bird in the hand is not yours. If it flies away, and you try to grab it, you only suffocate it. Just keep holding out your hand. It may come back, it may not, but you cannot force it either way. User:Mrthejazz/sig 03:48, July 15, 2010 (UTC)

I don't think anyone thinks 2005 was the "Golden Days" of Uncyclopedia. But I will say that from mid-2007 to late 2008, this place was fucking happenin'. Stuff was getting featured at scores like +17 and +18. Typical VFH noms looked kinda like this. There was hardly ever any drama, and there were a bunch of really funny, left-field, weird, cool articles. VFH was so competitive that the feature was almost always fucking hilarious.

It's been a little downhill from there. Everyone has an opinion as to why. I'm not sure, myself. I just miss Cajek and So So. pillow talk 03:59, July 15, 2010 (UTC)

Everybody knows that Uncyclopedia started going downhill as soon as it went on the internet. You should've seen it back when it was on paper. Sir Modusoperandi ^Boinc! 04:39, July 15, 2010 (UTC)

Pssh, the old paperback Uncyclopedia? That was nothing compared to when we had to chisel it in stone and carry it to the top of Mount Sinai to be approved by the ultimate admin. —fj0j3ddjoaw;rfjaew (r30qjd) 09:10, 15 July 2010 (UTC)

That's a funny way to spell my name. --UU - natter 09:13, Jul 15

Yeah, it's probably your Arabic name or something. —fj0j3ddjoaw;rfjaew (r30qjd) 09:15, 15 July 2010 (UTC)

Congratulations. Now he's on the No Fly list. Good one. Sir Modusoperandi ^Boinc! 13:00, July 15, 2010 (UTC)

Its probaly my fault

The reason he gave may be a cover up. He's probaly taking a break to get away from me. Reason? Well, I did create too many forums in Village Dump, as well as acting like a damn fool and asked me if I was drunk (which I wasnt) and decided to take some time to get away from that asshole which is me. Plus, with a name like Iwillkillyou333 is terrifying enough to even scare Roman Dog Bird or ChiefjusticeDS to make them to take some time off out of fear.--If you're 555 then I'm Talk What's it like to be a heretic? 06:28, July 21, 2010 (UTC)

Something scary enough to scare RDB would be inconceivable to the rest of us. It would make Cthulhu look like a cuddly kitten and make Goatse look like a warm, wet, inviting... bath. --Andorin Kato 06:31, July 21, 2010 (UTC)
