Bohdan

From Rationalwikiwki

Bohdan is yet another ex CP sysop who came over to RationalWiki. (What is it with these guys?) He is the resident "useless irritating person" on the wiki, and the one who most frequently opines that RationalWiki is "just like CP". His RationalWiki userpage states he is a "professional wikilawyer".

Treatment by other users

The sysops seem to use Bohdan as a form of stress relief. They often suspend all rules when dealing with him, blocking him (sometimes maliciously and sometimes friendly). Other users feel free to regularly violate the "your userpage is your castle" rule by vandalizing his userpage (though they don't like it when he reciprocates).

Whether Bohdan is actually liked, tolerated, or outright detested at RationalWiki seems to depend on who you ask. However, as he seems mostly harmless, and has the blessing of Tmtoulouse and Human, his future is fairly secure.

Sysopship

For a time he had sysop powers on RW, but after he abused his block power, Human took them away. He continues entertaining delusions of grandeur, however, and regularly threatens to "take away your/everyone's sysop powers", which would make him a bureaucrat (at least in his own head).

Behavior

Despite his empty threats, Bohdan's behavior has, interestingly, never led toHeadless Chicken Mode, which indicates how little the other users actually care about what he has to say. Many will even "play" with him, finding it more entertaining than ignoring him completely.

Unfortunately, Bohdan also frequently appears on freshly registered users' talk pages to accuse them of being socks of established users (only one person to date � RA � has ever complained about this).

Bohdan's appearance on a talk page heralds the end of any productive conversation as the entire discussion is hijacked and turned into a kvetching/wanton accusation session by Bohdan.

He doesn't handle criticism very well, and when confronted on his own talk page will either sputter amusingly and try to accuse the critic of "being just like CP", or will remove the comment, either by archiving or reverting.

Sockpuppetry

Bohdan has accused, and continues to accuse, everyone on RationalWiki of sockpuppetry. He also denies engaging in sockpuppetry himself, yet uses sockpuppets, which suggests a certain degree of projection on his part.

His most troublesome puppet was Locke (not to be confused with Pinto, whose de facto name was already "Locke"). Bohdan denied Locke was his sock, although Locke spent such an unusual amount of time obsessing over the same things Bohdan did the connection is undeniable.

He also maintains a series of socks, Bohdan2 and Bohdan3, for when he wants to get around his frequent blocks. The full list of numbered Bohdan socks is presently: 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 17, 37, 73, 103 and 666. The exact ownership of many of these socks is not known, although NamuH is believed to have created numbers 4 through 10. Human is suspected of being behind some of the others.
