Ungtss is most notable for touching off a small furor in RationalWiki by forcing [[RationalWiki he made to various articles. After making several edits that were interpreted as vaguely pro-creationist, the more reactionary editors became suspicious of his motives and he was accused of being a stealth creationist.[1][6]

Despite his subtle religious bent, Ungtss proved himself to both friendly and well-spoken,[2] and remained fairly calm throughout discussions.

Ungtss' edits instigated (*gasp!*) unfettered debate on several talk pages.[3] Despite Ungtss' amiability and openness, these discussions ended a complete and magnificent failure of communication (despite the many big words utilized by both sides) and were pulled to a halt by PalMD, who was fed up with Ungtss and blocked him. The only justification he gave was "[I'm] capricious and cranky, so piss of". NightFlare called foul and unblocked him. PalMD reblocked him, this time with at least a token excuse ("Removing content from pages without discussion"). AKjeldson unblocked Ungtss this time, noting PalMD's failure to cite examples of such [4] Radioactive afikomen took issue with this on PalMD's talk page.[5]
