== Tell me what you need ==

You're under stressful times here, and you're getting nowhere fast. I think, however, the main problem is you're approaching things from the wrong angle, and with the wrong attitude. What is it that you need done? I will undertake my best attempts to help, so long as what you need is fair and warranted.

:I made a few minor suggestions (creation of a redirect, minor restructuring of rfar) and I have been almost crucified for it. I do not know. I do need the redirect to more easily link to the case.
:*As it stands, I probably will be forced to link to the Davenbelle for the next 47 years if my past 3 years is any indication. I wil hand feed the community more evidence and links to past cases (which are less than fun to type). I do not expect this dispute to be resolved for decades. If I turn out to be wrong... Well I suppose that is a good thing.
:*I also need to be able to follow discussions on ArbCom. I spend a good deal of my time editing from a shared GPRS connection which has a speed close to a shared 56k (its slightly less). It's sluggish as is. As much as I find arbcom to be completely useless when dealing with disputes, the incompetent wikipedia will not move a ] to help me and delegate the dispute to arbcom like it did the past 3 years.
:I intend to file an rfar case on Jack Merridew. I know there is a clarification but the overly complex long term nature of the case that seems to be a better way to address the problem. You being a clerk can probably make the transition better than I. Please make this transition. A clarification has a very high chance of disappearing for inactivity per my past experience.
:I seemingly need to demonstrate mediation (a field of science I have no interest to) in order to abolish an arbcom remedy. Since arbcom has shown complete apathy on the matter, I have to do this all by my self. Fun thing is I am only interested in the removal of this non-expiring remedy. Currently the remedy only serves to help trolls. I am open to suggestions on getting this remedy off my back.

== VandalSniper application ==

I've applied for rollback at ]. Not sure if I'll need it since I'm an administrator, but there you go. --] ] 18:08, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
:Noted; I have had a few nudges regarding a backlog there, so I'll be handing the outstanding requests within the next day or two. Incidentally, you mentioned that you applied for "rollback"; that page is for applications to the ]. Were you looking for ], which is used to request access to the ]? I will still process your application, but just be aware, the application you have filed is for access to the VandalSniper program, and not to have rollback enabled on your account.

== FT2's talk page ==

I'm sure he appreciates that you fixed the code; however, somehow when you did that, about 77K of messages disappeared at the same time. You might want to take a look at that. ;-) ] (]) 20:42, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
:Whoops. =) Thanks for that heads up: I've no idea how that happened. <tt>:)</tt> I've reverted, and then re-done, and things look okay now. Please do, however, check out my latest change, in case I've mucked it up for a second time. Regards, ] 21:05, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

== My recent RfA ==

Thank you for supporting my RfA, which unfortunately didn't succeed. The majority of the opposes stated that I needed more experience in the main namespace and Misplaced Pages namespace and talk space, so that is what I will do. I have made a list and I hope I will be able to get through it. I will go for another RfA in about three month's time and I hope you will be able to support me then as well. If you have any other comments for me or wish to be notified when I go for another RfA, please leave them on my talk page. If you wish to nominate me for my next RfA, please wait until it has been about three months. I will not be checking back to this page so if you would like to comment or reply please use my talk page. Thanks again for participating in my RfA! <font color="blue">''']''' <sup>]</sup>/<sub>]</sub></font> 06:39, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

Untitled thread

I need you to please recover artice:Pbx software and send a copy to me thanks If you need access to a Misplaced Pages article that has been deleted, ask me. If it's not a copyright violation, libel, or personal information, and has not been deleted as a suspected WP:BLP violation, I will provide the text for you.

Note that using the text to recreate a deleted article automatically qualifies it for speedy deletion, and keeping deleted content hanging around in your userspace has gotten editors penalized before. But that's your problem.
