Current Requests

Kperfekt

I'm Kperfekt. I usually spell check articles on here, or revert vandalism. Most of you will probably look at my edit count and be impressed until you realize the majority of those edits are to talk pages. I know I don't have the best track record, but since 2008 I've changed. I don't troll people, I don't disrespect them, and I have not stirred up trouble in a long time. I want rollback powers for two reasons. One, is obviously because I could revert vandalism or untrue but good faith edits quickly and without clogging the recent edits. But, the second reason, as non-related as it may be, is due to me feeling like I have to prove something. I don't want anyone here to think I'm the same jerk I once was. I want to show everyone that I can be trusted as an editor here, and that I can be trusted with even the slightest bit of power. I ask that I at least be given the powers to show I will not in any way, shape, or form abuse them. And I truly, truly apologize for the attitude I once had. Please, give me a second chance. At the bottom of this request I will add the other Wiki's I have started or that I administrate on, several of which are thriving. Thank you for your time.

Support

Support - I don't doubt your abilities. BNK^[E|T|C] 01:22, April 28, 2010 (UTC)
Support: $wgHasReverts = "true"; $wgHasRecentReverts = "false"; That said, I don't think that it matters much given that you show that you've got a good idea of what rollback is, and that, like BNK, you've changed your attitude. As a result, I think I'm ok with giving you the go-ahead here. RAN1 (talk • contributions) 01:33, April 28, 2010 (UTC)
Support: Despite your qualms with the administration in the past, there's no denying that you're a conscientious contributor to the wiki. You'd make a fine rollbacker. - GalaxiaD ^Talk 20:16, April 28, 2010 (UTC)
Support - I think KP's earned a chance at using these tools. I really can't find a good reason on why to oppose. Cheezperson {talk}stuff 02:45, April 29, 2010 (UTC)

Oppose

Strong Oppose

You've had 3+ chances already; this is not your "second" chance.
I don't trust you.
You have been blocked 7+ times, one of them at first a permaban.
Your last revert was in February. 98.111.95.78 01:24, April 30, 2010 (UTC)

Neutral

Neutral, leaning slightly to support: I hadn't noticed that you were also referred to KP317, and so missed that little detail about your 3+ chances. After reading all the chances you've had, I don't know if this time has been long enough to get away from 7+ blocks and a bunch of requests tried. I can tell that you've changed, hence leaning to support, but I'm not sure that you've given enough time to this so as to make you've trusted. RAN1 (talk • contributions) 02:26, April 28, 2010 (UTC)
Neutral leaning towards support. KP's been behaving himself here for quite a while now, and does revert some. Miles (talk) 04:42, April 28, 2010 (UTC)
Neutral. See the two comments above. --Havoc Reaper '48 22:02, April 28, 2010 (UTC)
You're no longer a liability but you don't really edit. I don't see a compelling reason for you to have the tools, but I don't see a compelling reason to deny them to you. As a side note, despite my noted lack of faith in people, I do believe you've changed. I haven't talked to you really since our super long irc chat, goodness like nearly a year ago, but most people do a lot of growing up at about this time in their lives, if I am correct about your age and circumstances. We had something of a very neutral understanding back then methinks, but we also can't completely ignore your history. You had a natural talent for causing shitstorms, and while I don't see any way you can cause shitstorms with rollback, I'm still somewhat wary. Semicolon (talk) 05:09, April 29, 2010 (UTC)

Comments

Thanks to RAN1 for linking the other wiki's for me. Kperfekt ^BURN!!! ^{Revert That!} 01:44, April 28, 2010 (UTC)
I don't know what real say an IP address has on this issue, but I respond:

I did not mean second chance as in rollback, I meant a second chance on this website.
You don't even know me, so don't say you don't trust me.
4 of those blocks were taken off, and I got an apology from the person who banned me.

As I said before, I know I don't have the best track record. I think rollback powers would be a good chance for me to show I've changed. Kperfekt ^BURN!!! ^{Revert That!} 03:31, April 28, 2010 (UTC)
