Give me an hour and I could come up with ten anons that weren't vandals. And that term doesn't make sense.

{{17m|text= Okay how about this: we put up a warning in the editing section. I don't know if that's possible, but if it is possible, then we should put it up. Other solution I can think of is to give them the first warning immediately after their first vandal. Maybe that'll stop some of them from continuing to vandal the other articles.}} | |||
{{LapisScarab|time=03:00, November 27, 2010 (UTC)|text=So, basically, '''exactly what we do with vandals right now.''' I think you guys are missing the point; regardless of wether they're registered or unregistered, we deal with vandals the same way - a "friendly" warning to stop, then successive warning templates until they hit three, then we block them. There's no reason to discriminate specifically against anons.}} | |||
Dammit... guys... why? Lapis has said this about ten times in a row. Just read. This page isn't even a giant like the WWWG? forum. I took me about three minutes to read this. And, to repeat what Lapis said again, will you stop with the fake figures, Hangon? What is this 7 1/2? Have you ever seen the wiki contributor pyramid thing? It starts at everything, then goes to people who like a certain area. After that, it goes to people who like that item who need to search for it and wish to read about it. Then, it goes to those who will find their way here. Of those people, only a certain percent will stay, and of those, an even smaller percent will edit the wiki, either registered or unregistered. I know from experience that it is ''really'' easy to scare away new editors. I've scared away a couple myself. Getting rid of an anon who reads might even discourage them from reading in the future. {{The Inexistentsig}} | |||
{{LapisScarab|time=03:51, November 27, 2010 (UTC)|text=[http://kingdomhearts.wikia.com/wiki/Special:Contributions/Kemo- Yes, all vandals are anons...] Does everyone get the point yet? [http://kingdomhearts.wikia.com/wiki/Special:Contributions/Groudonfire17 Anyone can be a vandal.]}} | |||
{{JFHavoc|time=04:00, November 27, 2010 (UTC)|text=For the record, I only read the first post. So I don't know if anyone else has already brought this up. A Wiki is a database of information that ''anyone'' can edit and contribute too. It's not anon's fault that they're uninformed. If anything the problem is uninformed users.}} | |||
{{17m|text= JFH is right. And we already have 2 [[User:Chitalian8|trustworthy]] [[User:NinjaSheik|wiki gnomes]] already!}} | |||
{{ANX219|time={{{time}}}|shocked=Oh! I'm sorry Lapis. I wasn't paying attention. But, The Inexistent has a point there.}} | |||
{{Hangon|time=17:25, December 4, 2010 (UTC)|sad=Sorry, JFH is right, but when I said "7½" I meant age, not fraction of users, since anyone can edit little people can to, I got my first KH game when I was little, so why can't kids get on like that? JFH is right though I suggest we bring this Forum to an end I'm really sorry for all the trouble I caused.}} | |||
