- Acrollo, perhaps I should just relieve you of the effort of voting in VFH, you obviously don't grasp the concept of voting against without taking the piss even after the latest ban you had. And Ape - same remark goes for you. I'm getting very tired with the high and mighty approach some people demonstrate lately. ~

- Mordillo, fuck off. My criticism is perfectly valid. -- revolting Ape (multiply) (Riot Porn) 22:35, 21 July 2009 (UTC)
- I understand I was being blatantly dramatic last time, but where in this vote was I pointing finger at someone or something specific? Ask yourself are you the one being tactful by repramanding me and ape on VFH thus causing VFH dramas in the process? Sir ACROLO KUN • FPW • AOTM • FA •(SPAM) 05:17, 22 July 2009 (UTC)
- I'm asking myself primarily why civility is considered to be rear these days. Why, for some people, is it so damn difficult to say "against, not funny" rather than "against, zero inspiration/no effort/I will do x" thereby pointing a finger at the author and essentially saying "haha! you suck!". Why is it so important to vote against while insulting the writer? Against votes, which are absolutely legitimate, should encourage the writer to improve, to rewrite, to enrich his article. Will your vote give someone the motivation to improve? If this was a noob writer will he say - fuck off everyone, why should I bother putting effort if people treat me like this? Possibly. Being nice to people doesn't cost money, and criticism can be placed in a manner that will encourage rather than discourage. Even if you're a great writer. ~ 06:26, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

- I have supported Modus's work before as he has some of mine and I think it is for him to decide if I was offending him. He even said himself in his For comment that this would fail on VFH so I assume that even he does not believe in this article and knows he is a good writer generally because trust me this was not an attempt at gaining constructive critisism it was a one line joke. As for being nice to people part, you should practice what you preach, if you really want to resolve a problem then at least discuss it on a talk page where problems such as the one I had with ape can and will be resolved in a civil manner. I resolved my previous problem with the rape article with ape and understood what he was trying to achieve with his article, which helped us get past the emotionally unintelligent response I initially reacted with.

- Here is your misconception - it is actually my perogative, as an admin, to decide if certain behaviors are out of line for the well being of Uncyclopedia. Granted, Modus is an admin as well, but in this case I felt I needed to comment on the issue since it's reoccurring. As for being "nice" to people, I can assure you that were someone to mistreat you (and I'd be around to see it) he/she would get the exact treatment. If you read user:Famine/Why you'll see why I am not as "nice" as I used to be. And no, when I'm drawing the lines for some people, I don't need to practice what I preach. I do that when I'm acting as an every day user. Having said that if I need to have a chat with you in the future, (which hopefully won't happen), I'll come over and talk it over in your talk page. ~ 10:15, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

- Okay. You dragged me in. My comment was based on the "nicheness" of Abe Vigoda. The last time he had anything approaching fame (1990's Joe versus the Volcano, a mediocre film in which Abe was awesome), most of the people here had not yet even been conceived. Now can we have nachos? Oh, did I mention that I brought nachos? Sir Modusoperandi Boinc! 07:14, 22 July 2009 (UTC)
- Plus, there was the whole rumour of his death in the 80s. Before the Internet. Which kinda makes this better satire than you meant for it to be, Modus. Plus, THE NACHOS ARE MINE! MegaPleb • Dexter111344 • Complain here 07:19, 22 July 2009 (UTC)
- "1990's 'Joe versus the Volcano', a mediocre film...." JOE VERSUS THE VOLCANO WAS A BEAUTIFUL, BEAUTIFUL PIECE OF CINEMA, AND YOU, SIR, ARE A BUTT. I mean, where else can you find a movie that not only sells out, but sells out to Orange Crush?! Genius, I say! Genius! Woody On Fire!

- Ok, I'm gonna say one thing for the record: I have no problem with people being as harsh and cruel in their assessment of my work as they wish. I may be offended, I might even cry, but I wouldn't have them be censored on my behalf. That is all. -- revolting Ape (multiply) (Riot Porn) 13:12, 22 July 2009 (UTC)
