Bbb23
This person has Assburgers Syndrome, so you can't say anything bad! :-( Be aware of that, you insensitive fuck. |
The subject of this article is a loudmouth on the internet but a pathetic loser in real life. |
Bbb23 (pronounced bee-bee-bee-two-three or triple-B twenty-three), is an incel and an administrator of the English-language Wikipedia who craves the feeling of being above all else. He is known for his inability to accept criticism and for his insincere, self-righteous, hostile, and threatening behaviour towards anyone weaker than him while playing the friendly arse-kisser to anyone stronger than himself.[1]
He started editing Wikipedia in 2009 and became an administrator in July 2012 and a CheckUser in March 2015.[2][3][4]
Personality
Bbb23 is the textbook Internet tough guy. He enjoys playing god on a website to seek escape from his miserable sexless real life. Occasionally, a comment happens to trigger him hard, for example this one accurately calling him a sad little virgin.[5]
On his talk page
Bbb23 has the strange habit of scrubbing criticism off his talk page, be it ever so mild criticism, even from his administrator colleagues. Occasionally, he even removes posts for not being praise.[6][7]
His administrator buddies have protected his talk page against edits from unregistered editors and new accounts in order to shield him from critisicm.[8]
Hypocrisy
Before being an administrator, he complained about "incivility and aggression", saying "I find it ironic that many of these same editors happily display tags and comments about civility on their user pages. I guess they don't practice what they preach."[9]. Yet, after becoming an administrator, he became just that.
Thanklessness
In the ten years since the inception of the "thanks" button, he has never used it. Not even once.[10]
Powerhungriness
Bbb23 could not care less about the declared mission of Wikipedia, as signified by his poor treatment of productive editors, immediate blocking of users for mild criticism,[11] and deletion sprees of valid articles which were independently approved by new page patrollers.[12] To Bbb23, Wikipedia only is a tool for inflating his ego through excercising authority over ordinary editors, not providing free knowledge. Whether his destructive behaviour is permitted by policy or not, him behaving this way indicates he derives satisfaction from it. Otherwise he would not do it.
Articles he vengefully deleted were occasionally brought back by his administrator colleagues because they were too good to be deleted.[13] This shows Bbb23 has zero regard for the quality of an article. What actually matters to him is fullfilling his desire to excercise revenge against whoever dared to criticize him.[14]
He has a subpage proudly presenting a mass-deletion of eighty articles. As indicated by the blue links, almost all of them have been re-created. All those editors who re-created those articles could collectively have saved many hours of work if they could have started from existing articles. Instead, Bbb23 couldn't help but inflate his fragile ego by demolishing what others have built. Or perhaps this is his way of coping with his sexual frustration.[15]
Besides, Bbb23 is so bothered about trivial matters such as being called "dude" that he created an entire userbox about it. He also felt the need to tell us he had once been the victim of an unintentional block that was immediately lifted anyway. Oh, noez! How is that in relation to his behaviour towards others?[16][17]
In 2015, Bbb23 tried to become both a CheckUser and an oversighter, but the Wikipedia editor "NE Ent" exposed that Bbb23 has no real need for the oversight tool. Bbb23 tried utterly hard to contain his anger.[4]
If Wikipedia stopped existing, Bbb23 would not be sad due to the lost knowledge, but sad due to his lost ability to exercise control.
Loss of CheckUser tool
Bbb23 thought of himself as an untouchable lord from the heavens. That lasted until his arrogance caught up on June 18th, 2020. On that day, he woke up to a permission error when trying to access his favourite page, Special:CheckUser.
He ran afoul of the Arbitration Committee for habitually abusing his CheckUser tool for cyberstalking. He tried to drama quit Wikipedia to make them change their minds, but they didn’t, and his “retirement” only lasted few months before he came back to continue being a dickweed.
He couldn't stay away from Wikipedia
Out of rage, he slapped the "retired" template on his user page, even though its usage notes state "Do not use this template unless you plan to completely and permanently stop editing".[18][19]
Whoops! Looks like he is too hopelessly addicted to Wikipedia to stay away from it, the only place where he can feel above others. A few months of his insufferable real life and he thought "maybe retiring from Wikipedia wasn't such a good idea", and he couldn't help but be right back at Wikipedia.
In August 2020, the Wikimedia Office showed Bbb23 its fat middle finger (even fatter than angry Santa Claus' thick middle fingers!) and told him he can never be CheckUser again.[20]

When Bbb23 hears his favorite song, Dum Dee Dum, he gets excited and makes drunken dance movements to try to forget about his miserable and girlfriendless life outside Wikipedia. All he does is delete things and threaten people, because that is the highlight of his miserable days, where he can feel above others for once and get a hit of dopamine. He considers any criticism of him "trolling". He blocked this IP address, and carefully reverted every minor and harmless change the IP user made.
Every evening, Bbb23 goes to bed sorely wishing he could hold a pretty woman in his arms. But every evening, he realizes it is nothing but a far-reaching pipe dream because he is far too ugly for any woman to even consider him (except for unfeminine hags who look like Annegret Krampf-Karrenbauer).
