Unidling

Hey guys, I haven’t visited this place in quite a while, but I thought I’d try my hand at this again. I see I’ve returned just in time for a new dynasty.

By the way, some chinese (?) bots are spamming the wiki with random messages/ads. If anyone knows how to easily remove these and ban the offending accounts, I’m sure it’d be greatly appreciated.

75th Trombone gave me the keys and locked the wiki to new accounts, a while ago. The spammers that remain are sleeper accounts; there are probably dozens of them lurking around the place.

If you look at the actual wiki pages, there’s a sickening amount of old spam in there, far more than we could deal with manually. If any MediaWiki wizards feel like wiping and reinstalling the wiki on blognomic.com (and somehow transferring the genuine pages across), they should contact Mr Trombone.
