☐ Realize you’ve been on the wiki for probably more than 3 years. ☐ Don’t care because at this point you’re just trying to outlive all the other old people who are dying of adulthood and tertiary education. ☐ Edit and pretend you can edit better than anyone else (whether or not this is true is entirely up to you). ☐ (It’s definitely not true though.) ☐ Amass a 20,000+ editcount. ☐ (Most of it ends up being chat logs). ☐ Alternatively: Don’t edit and say editing is for scrubs with no life. ☐ You’re secretly jealous you can’t even brag about meaningless numbers on the internet. At least they have something to be proud of. ☐ Constantly say “back in my day… ”. ☐ Think back on how the old days were actually awful and the wiki had multiple apocalypses per month. ☐ Ignore that because it was still better than now. ☐ Repeatedly state you’ve been on the wiki longer than anybody else [on chat] (whether or not this is true depends on whether or not you think the people who joined before you actually exist). ☐ Constantly forget who’s actually on the wiki and who are just figments of your imagination. ☐ Have to ask relatively new users total noobs how the wiki works. [No thanks I know how to do this Wikia thing unlike the other scrubs] ☐ Try to tell them they’re wrong and then do what they said in desperation. '''☐ Literally make fun of everyone and everything. Nothing is serious anymore.''' ☐ Repeatedly claim the wiki is dying when there are more active users than you’ve seen in the last 5 months. ☐ Repeatedly claim the wiki is doing fine when there are less active users than you’ve seen in the last 5 months. ☐ Have no concept of consistency. ☐ Constantly rage at admins for everything not being perfect like it was back in the Old Days™. ☐ Realize most of the admins joined and got promoted long after the Old Days™. ☐ Rage at the admins for being noobs. ☐ Try to tell the admins how to do their jobs. ☐ After all you have years of glorious experience in being an annoying noob who argued with everyone and trolled constantly, so who better to advise them than yourself? ☐ When the admins refuse your outrageous entirely reasonable requests (“get rid of RfRs and make Drew promote everyone like how it was in 2012!!”) make several community votes that all inevitably fail. ☐ When that happens, ignore the policies and do what you want anyway, possibly getting yourself blocked in the process (if that happens they don’t deserve your presence). ☐ Violent revolution is the only way to make progress, clearly (Bourg was right the whole time.) Either that or reactionary movements (EED was right the whole time.) ☐ Constantly change sides on everything. ☐ You lose track of your allies and your enemies. Nothing makes sense anymore in a world as uncertain as this. You feel your mind slipping away every night. ☐ You wonder why everyone has started hating you. <br"☐ You’re pretty much the perfect person after all, what reason could there be? ☐ Deny any and all claims you are annoying people. Everyone’s such a jokester, right? ☐ Wish everyone would stop being so serious all the time, it’s just a prank bro. ☐ Attempt to convince everyone that nothing matters because they’re all on a wiki about a forum about a children’s building toy. ☐ Proceed to get worked up over something incredibly small (“The age is just a suggestion. They have to put that on there.”). ☐ Still don’t have any rights after 4 years because the world is unfair. Cry yourself to sleep at night.
