| | :::Conservative, I'm going to add, these people are all losers, they may make outlandish claims of being some productive member of society, but the reality is they wouldn't have time to invest in a rat nest if they were. Gooniepunk has admitted that he was a homeless hobo when he was active, GrammarCommie has admitted that he has a prison record and mental illness, Oxyaena admitted to having such severe mental illness that he could not function without his meds, Blue and Bigs have both admitted that they were ignorant teenagers when they were active, CheckUser evidence from this site has revealed that several of the socks from RW I have blocked have been from high school or college students... The ones that are school age are almost certainly the outcast type because someone with friends wouldn't waste their high school days on an obscure wiki that really doesn't even meet Wikipedia's notability guidelines (it's bad enough that I spent so much time on Wikipedia, but at least people actually use Wikipedia and it was something cool to talk about with friends, unlike the rat nest). Anyone can go on an open wiki as an anonymous user and claim to be a doctor, a lawyer, an academic, an astronaut, Brad Pitt, Donald Trump, OJ Simpson, Joe Biden, Tom Brady, etc. but that doesn't make it true. The one's on there who actually have a life are inactive ones who used to not have a life.

| | Actually, I know of a formerly actively RW editor who is successful in his professional life and appears to be successful in his personal life. My guess is that his level of success is partly due to his family background. I will not go into the details, but suffice it to say you can't make categorical statements about their entire realm of RW editors, but merely generalizations. They do seem to have a lot of mental illness and dysfunction among their editor base though.{{Unsigned|User:Conservative}} | | Actually, I know of a formerly actively RW editor who is successful in his professional life and appears to be successful in his personal life.

| | ::::::(ec)You're an ex-protestant? As in now you are Catholic? Or are you a Baptist brider like me? When I was in high school and very active on wikis, I knew everybody in school and was kind of one of the popular kids (the people I still talk with include but is not limited to the class president, the prom queen, and the cheerleaders if that gives you an idea), but I was also extremely shy outside of school. The minute the bell rang I went home and stayed home; I would talk on MySpace and Facebook but I didn't even call or text friends really, despite having people's numbers. Now I'm heavily involved in politics, church, and The Gideons International, in addition to work at a public school, the responsibilities of home ownership, and college once I start taking classes again (I have an associate degree in business from Liberty, going to go for bachelors in business with a minor in Bible from Maranatha Baptist).
