I was going through our Wiki and found some stupid shit.

Was just scanning the maps page:
http://www.renegadewiki.com/index.php?title=Renegade_maps

And noticed shitty links (in blue text) on the Walls maps:
http://www.renegadewiki.com/index.php?title=Image:Map_walls.jpg

And:
http://www.renegadewiki.com/index.php?title=Image:Map_walls.jpg

Please remove. Thanks.

Ya, I was gonna say just edit yourself but now all the pages seem to be locked Huh I know the vandalism thing, but I think to help solve that, just only allow reg'd members to edit pages, versus locking everything down because it defeats the purpose Huh

Yeah, I would love to be allowed in there. I love this game and community and I can most certainly check and fix minor problems like these when they show up.

Well, at least we can report such problems here so Crimson can fix it herself. Big Grin

The person who vandalizes the wiki isn't a bot. He sits there for hours and does these things by hand. A simple CAPTCHA isn't going to stop him. Anyone who wants access to make edits just needs to PM me their username on the wiki and I'll set them up.

I'm the bawss.

Yeah, he's seriously pathetic. I looked at all the timestamps of his last vandalism and he literally spent 8 hours uploading porn over images and adding and edited other pages to make his porn show up everywhere.

I'm the bawss.

Presence is a curious thing, if you think you need to prove it... you probably never had it in the first place.

Anyone who spends EIGHT HOURS straight "defacing" a wiki (which isn't really hacking or defacing, since it allows anyone to edit it lol), which can be reverted with a single click is a serious, serious dumbass piece of shit.

And they probably read these forums.

Probably reading this right now.

Yes, I'm talking to you, you dumb fuck.

You sir, are a waste of oxygen. Get a life, fuckass.

He who smelt it...

Someone spending that much time wants to make sure it gets noticed. When no one complains on Renforums a thread creation is hard to resist.

No, I didn't check his IP against every single database I have... I'm that dumb.

Or he used a Tor proxy which didn't match anything at all.

You decide.

I kinda figured you did anyway, I mean, If (S)he spends that much time doing stupid shit, He/She might have forgot to use a proxy.

And was there any need for the sarcasm?

Looking back I had to suspend two accounts on RenHelp for similar actions.

index.php?t=getfile&id=4480&private=0

Hate to point fingers and there is little proof other than the name but there you go.

I just know that these two accounts did (basically) the same thing as the wiki.

Whoever it is, I am convinced it is someone within the huge Renegade community; even for the previous (and larger) vandalism.
