Summary:

Unauthorized edits

DrMaynard

Accelerando 24 Oct 2014 20:07

DrMaynard (name changed to O5-4) made edits to SCP-008 and SCP-096. They added this addendum to 008:

Addendum 008-2: Request from Dr. Clef to use SCP-500 and SCP-008 for a new MTF unit, as well as other SCPs such as SCP-714, and SCP-076. Yes, we would like a retry for Project Omega-Seven.

They added a link to a picture of 096 at the bottom of the page from the CB wiki. No one could see it because of quote box formatting.

Reverted both, PM'd them the standard staff message regarding edits and additional info in getting permission or contacting staff first..

Responded with this:

Ok, thank you and my apologies. I would also like to inform the staff that I am writing a book about the SCP Foundation. So far it is turning out very well.

Gonna need someone from the Licensing Team to explain how that would work out.

Edit: And again, they've edited 2450. Changed from Day/Month/Year to American Month/Day/Year. Further explained in more PMs.

I'd advocate for revocation upon a next infraction, if he's done bad edits twice already, been warned sequentially after each one, and then does it again. Even if the possibility of such hasn't been mentioned as of yet, he's clearly 1) receiving warnings, 2) noticing those warnings, and 3) ignoring those warnings.

They also made this thread, which appears to be roleplaying.

And they necroposted twice (both times ignoring the "don't necropost" comments just upthread).

Definitely advocating for revocation. This person doesn't get it.

Just as a heads up, at some point this user changed their name to O5-4, which means they are permanently blocked from the site unless the name is changed.

Not that it really matters, because I don't think they even reapplied after being revoked, just means we have some forum posts under a weird username.

It's still good to have a record. First post has been edited accordingly.

Edit: They seem to have created a very unwieldy spinoff site, http://smartforums.wikidot.com/ It's known as "genius" and the apparent tagline is "A website to for smart people discuss what smart people want to discuss."

Recent edits doesn't show any new changes, so it looks like they abandoned the site before they created all the pages. Anyway, the "join the site" page has the following text:

Hey, guys this site is a work in progress, but you can apply to help create it! I think I will implement an IQ test for an application. But for now list your academic achievements and you should get in unless something comes up. So just send your application to me, O5-4.

Roleplaying and ridiculousness aside, if we notice someone from the mainsite trying to push for membership of this new offshoot, it's probably a sockpuppet.

"A website to for smart people discuss what smart people want to discuss."

There is literally a site for this already. It's called Mensa.
