A few more added Gorgoroth lyrics ... Does anyone know if the band has ever released any of them officially? You can tell with certainty the absolute guesswork ones (note the unsure-if-correct-word usage of the parentheses and question mark):
Quote:
The army issue important purpose(ment?)

Tsk tsk.

Nhb55840 this kid added wrong line-up on Wormwood Prophecy page, the current bassist and keyboardist only joined in 2011 so they did not play on the 1st demo (I added a former bassist)

I'm sick of spending hours everyday cleaning people's shit... :(

So you cleaned up already... You know, if you know those join dates, you could add them to the band lineup. Anyway, I'll send a message.

My mistake; I wasn't aware of any past members for Wormwood Prophecy.

I don't know if this is a point whoring attempt or not but this user with the same name as the band:

http://www.metal-archives.com/users/hellishundead

has been adding stuff to the band page and then filing reports just days later to change it. He added the new EP on the 9th which according to him was the release date and now has a report saying that's not the release date and it's not even the title. He added members to the page and now wants their name changed... once, I could see it being a mistake but this is four or five reports later about the same stuff he's put on the site.

Hm, mistakes can happen. And could be he added that EP and then the date and name got scrapped. Probably just a band member or friend who wants to keep the band page updated but is inexperienced with the site and does sloppy/hasty work sometimes. I've sent him a friendly notice about being more careful with his edits and taking it easy with the reports. No visible harm done so far, slight report overkill excepted.

Well, okay - no one is perfect but I mean, you just updated the genre of the band, I suppose from previous reports he made asking for them to be "black/thrash/speed" and he just filed another report saying it's just "thrash/speed." It's not simply mistakes. It's reports filed, and then more reports filed sometimes as soon as the next day contradicting the change from the previous day. I get it if he added stuff to the page prematurely or incorrectly but he's filing multiple reports to change previous reports.

Short attention span and fickleness work for reports too. Bands (and people in general) are known to be adamantly pedantic and opinionated about genres. Not to mention mistaking the site for a promotional tool. Maybe the band (told him they) would now like to be labelled that way. These things can change in a heartbeat. I listened to their songs on Myspace and thought they sounded pretty blackened, so I changed it. Porman now reverted that, but it's hardly an issue to start an edit war over. The current genre works just as well.

Anyway, it's all conjecture as to his exact motives and so far he hasn't become disruptive, just a bit annoying. If he continues to modify stuff and excessively report those modifications or other things he'll receive a warning. What else do you want me to do? I certainly won't remove points, let alone ban him for this.

Actually, even if it was only one edit, he still clearly vandalised and we have no tolerance for it. I've banned him.

Warned this guy for adding useless links to his site on a lot of bands. It's called "metalgigz" and those that I checked don't even have gigs listed there.

Anyone up to the task of cleaning this up?

This user has vandalised the Metallica page. I'm aware that Alcoholica is a nickname for the band but this doesn't seem right.

The box that comes up to put a link in didn't close when I clicked it, so I clicked it a few times. It resulted in me adding 4 links to their bandcamp page. Sorry.

This user has added fake members to the Gojira and Dimmu Borgir pages.

Plus, based on his profile name has seemingly added three different profiles of himself.

Can you ban this kid "Sorrowlord666"

Adding random line-ups for tons of bands, check his modification history since 2 days ...

YOU REALLY need to find a solution about this: STOPPING new users from adding album line-ups, people under 1000 points shouldn't have this privilege, most are unreliable and add those line-ups to gain points easily without caring about the accuracy of the information ......

I also removed points.

About limiting adding album lineups to Veterans or above... yeah, it's been brought up numerous times and many mods (myself included) are all for it, but it's for the owners to decide and implement.
