Can we get a courtesy link to what you're talking about?

All of that sounds really sketchy, but I'd like context.

This WMG page.

A Lost Cloud Dreamer added "Chalk it up to lazy writing" to The Castaway Pariah's original addition, and deleted Ferot_Dreadnaught's addition with the edit reason "Unsatisfactory answer."

I also just noticed they deleted The Castaway Pariah's WMG "Trixie didn’t give Pinkie’s mouth back like she undid the other spells because..." entirely.

Ye, that's not cool. Even if it's not against any specific rules, it's quite dickish.

Okay, I just looked at their edit history, and...yeah. Not good.

Here they added "Why? Because this website is unfair in that it only allows some opinions but not others, and also doesn't understand the hypocrisy of having articles like these while also making the rules of this page the way they are." into the note for the page.

They added Shrek and Cory in the House as anime here as a troll joke.

Added "Twilight dances atrociously" as an example of a Moral Event Horizon here, which I guess is a joke.

Think we have a problem troper here.

At this point it seems like an edit to their general edit history may be useful

A good rule of thumb would be: "Don't meaningfully edit someone else's WMG."

It's perfectly fine to fix spelling errors, or namespace a wick.

I had a dog-themed avatar before it was cool.
