Closing of Humpy-pedia[edit source]

Hello,

Due to multiple complaints, we have reviewed the wiki you created, Humpy-pedia, and its content. Subsequently we have decided to close the wiki, as per our terms of use, which can be viewed here http://www.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Terms_of_use#Changes_to_wikis . It will be taken offline within the next couple of days.

Thanks and regards,

I'd rather you didn't, since the 'complainers' were actually trolls playing a prank.--21:56, 6 September 2012 (UTC)
Sorry for the slow response. Even if this is the case, the wiki breaks our ShoutWiki Hub:Wiki deletion policy in two cases. Firstly the description field was incomplete, and secondly the content has the possibility to offend or be hateful, especially considering you're calling it the "retarded" wiki. As such, the decision remains to delete the wiki. Thanks and regards

I can easily write a proper description (its basically just a big sandbox for some friends to mess around with). I can also replace 'retarded' with 'stupid' or something like that, since that's the only thing that could offend someone. The rest of the wiki is basically nonsense about noodles.
If the wiki's page is restored and I do those things, will it be okay to keep?--Red Viper (talk) 09:31, 10 September 2012 (UTC)
We'll discuss this and get back to you this evening. Thanks and regards,

Hi

Unfortunately we have decided that our decision regarding closing the wiki remains the same. This in no way means you have to stop using our services, and we look forward to seeing you around ShoutWiki in the future.

Thanks and regards -- Cook879 ShoutWiki Staff talk 21:17, 10 September 2012 (UTC)

I won't argue about it, but can you at least tell me why you're still going to delete it? The two problems you said were very easy to fix. --Red Viper (talk) 21:26, 10 September 2012 (UTC)
These two problems still ignore the original complaints, and we have decided to uphold our original view point that these represent a real and serious issue. Hence, we have decided to close the wiki.
Thanks and regards -- Cook879 ShoutWiki Staff talk 21:17, 10 September 2012 (UTC)
What real and serious issue? Can you point out to me what is offensive on the wiki?--Red Viper (talk) 21:54, 10 September 2012 (UTC)
We received two complaints claiming that "humpy" was an derogatory term towards a particular person, and one also said you were abusing your powers, which is shown through the block log on your wiki, where you blocked multiple new accounts, without them even editing. You also agreed with this deletion to begin with, having deleted all the pages. Combining this, we have decided that it would be best to close the site.
Thanks and regards -- Cook879 ShoutWiki Staff talk 22:08, 10 September 2012 (UTC)
Humpy is one of the users of the wiki, and he even replied to the 'complaint' saying he didn't care. I blocked the accounts because they were sockpuppets and I saw them being created by Humpy. And I agreed to the deletion because I thought it was the school contacting me. Not because of the content of the wiki. All complaints were made by trolls, as you can see that after complaining they went and vandalised the site.
Ok delete it. Right now, please.--Red Viper (talk) 03:43, 11 September 2012 (UTC)
