Forum:Behavioral and leniency issues

I have been observing this wiki for the past month and have noticed several issues, mainly dealing with blogs and bloggers, and the extreme leniency in dealing with issues. The main people that are problems even stated themselves that admins give them a myriad of warnings but never actually act upon the warnings. They also state that they can do whatever they want because they won't get punished. The Recent Wiki Activity page is often spammed with blog comments containing massive amounts of swearing and improper/useless images (some even reference illegal drug use). I'm pretty much baffled that this has been going on for so long and nobody has attempted to rectify it. Because nobody else is stepping up to the plate, I'm taking the first pitch (Oh, the clichè!). I'm not quite sure how this problem became so deeply rooted in the wiki. I just want sensible people's opinions. Do you think there is a problem? If yes, why is it not being dealt with? Why hasn't it been dealt with the past few months... years (I don't know how long it's been a problem)?

I would also like to point out that many of the users that regularly contribute to blogs have nigh negligent relative mainspace edits. This suggests that blogs do not have the betterment of the wiki; rather, it suggests that it is just another form of social media that usually doesn't have much to do with improving the wiki.

 * Yes, please do look into this matter. Quite frankly, the past couple of months have been increasing in the amount of spam, and trolling that I have seen even prior to making this current account. When I log on and check the recent activity page, all I see are pages of blog posts and comments with content/topics completely unrelated to Adventure Time (Most Wikis I'm on disabled blogs and they function way better). Most of the users on them are people who don't contribute to diddly. It is getting hard not to see one of the many children going on and trying to place all their personal and emotional problems into this wiki. They are warping this wiki into a social networking site, when this is a wiki. We are here to put up the best darn encyclopedia... not our personal issues. If they want to be personal go on to facespace or livejournal to blog their problems. True Sephiroth 16:14, April 28, 2012 (UTC)


 * You have just opened Pandora's box. Do you have any idea what you are getting yourself into here? On the other hand, you are the first person to ever take this so seriously. In months, nobody else seemed to bother. What makes you think the others will care? If anything you'll end up making the wiki a less fun place to hang around. It is gonna cost the wiki a lot of visitors. Is that what you want? Marcaline 16:18, April 28, 2012 (UTC)

Some agreement
I definitely think there is way too much leniency in dealing with blog posts, and up until very recently the chat as well. It seems that when a user is angry nobody wants to take action because they know it would make them angrier. I believe this was partially due to the lack of a clear code of conduct, so I would like to think that there will be a bit more control over those things now. I guess all I'm saying is if we're claiming to be PG we shouldn't be okay with users cussing more than what could be considered "scarcely." I can't agree fully with that second paragraph, because the fan related AT content goes into blogs while it doesn't belong in the mainspace. I think it would be acceptable if all blog topics had to be at least somewhat AT themed. Flame Prince Finn 16:15, April 28, 2012 (UTC)
