Why I love knowing how to set up MediaWiki

 I write this for two reasons. One, to address all the people ranting on my blog comments (it's moderated, people, so if you are just here to give me grief, it never goes public, please stop wasting your time), and two to explain why I'm not bothered by not having any power over a public wiki, like how I got kicked off FANDOM of late. For one, if I were banned from every wiki on Earth, that's fine by me. I accept being tossed off any website I don't own because they make the rules. At the same time, thanks to the ability to host my own local version of a wiki, I can just host my own copy for myself, edit in peace, and there is nothing anyone can do about it. Unlike most people on hosted services like FANDOM, I am not bound to be doomed to not enjoy editing wikis because I know how to self-host my own local copy of a wiki. That means I could be banned from every wiki on the planet and still be able to edit one, all by myself. Sure, wikis tend to work better with more tha

Just a few comments on the Byuu insanity

 I recently saw all that insanity involving that emulation tranny dev (yes, I used a politically incorrect word for the transgender, I don't care, I'm fed up with walking on eggshells with you lunatics) Byuu, and while you have imbeciles on Twitter and Reddit trying to DDoS (nice felonies you hypocrites) the Kiwi Farms and trying to blame them for murder of someone who has yet to be verified by a non-hearsay source to be dead or alive, I'd just like to mention a few things for all the spastics who are deliberately getting things wrong and to clear up things for the confused so they can get it right. 1. Byuu had a fairly dead thread on the Farms, like 13 pages, most of it not even all that mean, pretty civil. Byuu shows up a day or two ago, tries to bribe Joshua "Null" Moon with 120 grand of his life savings to take the thread down. Null wisely refuses, citing principle, common sense regarding legal issues, and instead offers to give Byuu employment so he has somet

I'm now no longer running either branch of All The Tropes

 Since FANDOM expelled me for good, and since for my own personal sanity and my belief I'm doing more harm to the other branch by proxy by remaining in any position of authority, I have stripped myself of any power (save the bureaucrat right, Miraheze staff need to remove that by communal consent) and have taken an indefinite sabbatical. My official announcement can be found here: http://www.accessdenied-rms.net/forums/showthread.php?tid=14133&pid=203449#pid203449 If this becomes a permanent banishment from both, I will accept that if the community on Miraheze wishes it. I may have been one of the founders, but I won't oppose it if the community decides I've become a millstone or detrimental to its continuance. As for me, I need to step away. I don't need the stress, the loss of sanity, nor the hassle of any more drama. I have the good sense to know I should walk away and this is not the first time I have had to give up power for the good of others. The one type of

Just to make clear where I stand

 Since I am now free of any attachment to an organization that will "cancel" for not going along with the mob despite my own conscience, morals, religious beliefs, politics, and personal creed, let me make my positions on a few things absolutely clear. For starters, I am politically a classical liberal with some conservative sympathies. I'm a devout non-denominational Christian. I used to be a former "social justice warrior", but disowned that movement when I realized the modern-day version has nothing to do with true justice but is merely the new version of being a bigot with a false veneer of tolerance. If anything, they deem themselves able to hate, spit on, and destroy anyone they don't agree with using just the same venom as an honest racist, just the honest racist is HONEST about their hate. As to several issues where I come off unenlightened, let me be clear on them: 1. Homosexuality/Lesbianism/Bisexuality From a standpoint of Christian morals, I obvi

To no surprise at all, I'm now "cancelled" by people who used to claim to like me

 This is something of an amusing follow-up to my previous post, but I just want to point out a few things I find funny. Now that I've been exposed as some disgusting evil bigot because, LE GASP, I refuse the kiss the alphabet mafia's ring, I'm now getting all sorts of crap since I went against the hive mind, and they are responding much like this Babylon Bee satire (that is all too close to reality) Since I'm now blocked, people are spamming nasty crap on my former talk page and doing cowardly backshots, and to be honest, I'm not even mad, I expected I'd get spit on for daring to offend people. I'd like to thank Nerdshamer from the Kiwi Farms for archiving the best stuff, much obliged. Anyway, here goes: https://allthetropes.fandom.com/wiki/Message_Wall:GethN7?threadId=4400000000000043616 https://archive.md/M06n3 Ironically, this guy is giving me grief for not being more of a fundamentalist loon. Jesus said to give to Caesar's what is Caesar's, and t

My FANDOM appeal was denied, my official statement on the matter

 "Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience." -C.S. Lewis As of now, I am no longer the leader of ATT FANDOM. By the time I have posted this I have been globally banned on FANDOM for good, my appeal was denied. My faith it continues to be a good place to host a branch of our site has been irreparably shaken, and from this day onward I will never patronize their services as a contributor in any capacity because it is clear I'm never wanted back by certain parties within their administration, a fact that saddens me, but which I respect as their decision and ask anyone else who has any regard for me to respect

I was recently globally banned from FANDOM, here is the offending post for those curious

 Reproduced below in italics. I have filed an appeal with FANDOM over this, but regardless of whether the appeal is accepted or not, here is the offending post that got my block done so there is no question what I posted that seems to have earned it: My position on rules, both that I follow and I expect others to follow GethN7 I'm writing this blog post because recently, some people seem to be convinced rules, laws, and guidelines are things that can be discarded whenever they please, do not apply, and if they don't like them, they can ignore them. That said, let me explain my take on this. First off, as both an open Christian and a rational human being with firm cognizance of biology, I find being "transgender" impossible on a genetic level, since male and female are the defaults, with the genuinely intersexed on a genetic level being a ridiculously rare anomaly, and since the mass majority of the third group are nigh always saddled with unfortunate genetic condition
