''Comparing vandal attacks to 9/11 is a severe exaggeration. If the 9/11 attacks were like a wiki vandal spree, 3000 people would still be alive.''

''From what I can tell, you guys seem to get a lot of vandals because feed the trolls by treating temporary vandalism as life and death situations. Just get some new admins who will actually be around to fix the issues quickly and do so without exchanging any words with your attackers.''

''Vandals feed off of attention, so insulting them or making blogs like this will actually just attract more. How do I know this? I've dealt with very similar issues on atleast six different wikis. The Mass Effect Wiki, for instance, has been attacked many times before but the admins there handle it so quickly and quietly, no one even knows about the attacks unless they search through page histories.''

If you want these attacks to decrease dramatically, be prepared to give atleast rollback rights to trustworthy users who can handle things professionally and commit to being here.
