Sir,
Are you now, or have you ever been, the lead singer of [i]Modest Mouse[/i]?

On a serious note, as gruesome as this may seem by current standards, I find it fascinating. Stories like these lend color to history. There are far worse things happening today, by comparison. The controversy also says much about the culture of Wikipedia.

Hello I am SirIsaacBrock and I wrote all the baiting articles based on books in my possession. I was there before I took the handle SIB and I am still there. The main issue at Wikipedia is bad administrators blocking my account(s) not me.

If you have any questions do not hesitate to contact me.

Cordially

SIB

A few years ago I met a man who described seeing a video of a monkey/dog fight. It went exactly like all the other fights mentioned and involved a small monkey, not a chimpanzee. The monkey killed the dog, to the amazement of the audience. The monkey was given a small piece of wood to grasp that jutted out slightly from each side of his hand. He very efficiently used this to pound the dog to death. The person I heard this from, who knew some “kill strikes” from martial arts training, was very impressed and used this to illustrate that martial arts are programmed into our brains.

What makes you say they’re hoaxes? A Google search pulls up corroborating web pages…

SirIsaacBrock said the opposite — that sock puppets were attacking his article, and he was fighting them to keep it online.

Was it because they thought the article was unnecessary, that it was barbaric, or just that all the dogs lost to monkeys…

SirIssacBrock created a series of hoax articles about various “baitings.” When called on some of those hoaxes, he went down in a blaze of glory, creating a series of sockpuppets to harass the people who discovered and corrected his hoaxes. He had been formerly banned as WritersCramp, who was gotten rid of for his homphobic trolling. Wikipedia is an effort that requires multiple authors - SirIssacBrock was not an author, he was playing a game.

The training of these poor creatures into killing machines … is simply barbaric. Barbaric! Let that word resound from hill to hill, from valleh to valleh.
