Misplaced Pages

Revision as of 03:11, 4 August 2008

Welcome to my talk page! I tend to reply to messages directly on here, so I suggest watching my page if you're looking for a reply. I watch user talk pages I comment on so we can keep conversations organized. I reserve the right to modify excessive signatures left here.

Thanks

Although not as bad as the Myspacing young users themselves, the perennial opposition from one or two users (despite consensus from administrators that it's appropriate) as to our methods does get frustrating. So, thanks for your input at my talk. Daniel (talk) 13:57, 24 July 2008 (UTC)

Of course. Whenever I see a thread entitled "WTH!? ZOMG", especially on your talk page, I know there has to be an issue with Myspace-based users. Metros (talk) 14:10, 24 July 2008 (UTC)

Misplaced Pages:Perceived "incivility" against social network-dominant young editors noticeboard will be needed soon :) Daniel (talk) 14:11, 24 July 2008 (UTC)

In response to Daniel and in explanation to Metros- I'm not opposing anything, as you can well see from my words I hope. All I'm saying is that people can be treated with politeness, this is a young boy who has asked for adoption, who does make a few mainspace contributions. There are ways to encourage him to make more mainspace contributions I hope. I'm not objecting as much to Daniel's words as to the editor who said "thank goodness" if Editor510 has gone, that's unnecessarily rude to say in response to someone who I assume is here in good faith.

Re: Email

I apologize. I didn't know what the correct course of action was. Don't block me or anything. Shapiros10 (talk) 15:55, 27 July 2008 (UTC)

What is it with you young users and begging not to be blocked for every little offense where no sysop would ever consider a block? Seriously, just go do work and stop worrying about how every little thing you do will affect your future request(s) for adminship. Metros (talk) 16:19, 27 July 2008 (UTC)

I'm not going to have an RFA. I just don't want to be blocked. And it's not only young users who don't want to be blocked. Shapiros10 (talk) 16:22, 27 July 2008 (UTC)

If you don't want to be blocked, go edit and follow the policies and guidelines of Misplaced Pages, it's that easy. There's nothing in the policies that says an administrator can block for a user sending an email about deletions so there's no need to beg not to be blocked. Like I said, just go edit.

The cabal fiasco

You know, Metros, I just realized something: I never apologized for the whole cabal crap. I was totally imature. I apologize. Friends again?

PS: I left a note at the talkpage of your page on retiring. Gears of War 2 01:19, 31 July 2008 (UTC)

PLHS Cats.

I see you updated the PLHS categories here. Should it be listed as a HS in Morris County, though? It's physically in Passaic County and is only a receiving district for Riverdale students. It's probably just a question of technicality, but I thought I'd ask you about it first, Metros (talk) 16:44, 1 August 2008 (UTC)

I had sort of agonized over the issue. When it was just in a Morris County category it seemed ambiguous enough, but now that the category is called "High schools in Morris County, New Jersey" it does seem to be a bit more questionable. These cases where high schools and districts serve students outside of their home county need to be properly addressed one way or the other. Any thoughts on your side? Alansohn (talk) 17:52, 1 August 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, it's a good question that I don't really know an answer to. It'd probably be wise to take it to other Jersey editors because I think this is a distinctly Jersey issue (I don't really know of any sending/receiving relationships like Jersey has...). Sorry I don't have any conclusive ideas, Metros (talk) 21:23, 3 August 2008 (UTC)

Radio Misplaced Pages

Thanks for your comment here. Hopefully StewieGriffin! will realize that everyone is flawed, everyone makes mistakes, and blame shouldn't be placed on others in an attempt to keep the blame off of one, as seems to be the case. I've kept an eye half-way on the project since the AN/I, and it has almost been one large soap opera. This little incident seems to take the cake, though. Mastrchf (/_c) 21:25, 3 August 2008 (UTC)

RE:More formal warning

Winger84 clearly hates me. If he wants me to leave his talk page alone,he should answer my question as to why he hates me. XxJoshuaxX (talk) 02:15, 4 August 2008 (UTC)

Just leave it alone. If he hates you, he hates you. You constantly posting the questions to his talk page is only adding fuel to the fire. Metros (talk) 02:17, 4 August 2008 (UTC)

Yes,if he hates me,he hates me,but if I don't know why,it makes me really upset. If he would just answer that,I'd stop why I'm doing but he's the one choosing to be difficult. XxJoshuaxX (talk) 02:19, 4 August 2008 (UTC)

If he wanted to answer your questions, he would have. It's clear, however, that he'd prefer not to answer. Metros (talk) 02:20, 4 August 2008 (UTC)

This is really not the place for this, but since it has been brought up here, I'll contribute, in hopes that the issue may be put to rest..

I am sorry that you have concluded that I "hate" you. I have never made any statement to that effect, nor have my actions - as I see the situation - been of a nature that should lead to that conclusion. I am here for the better good of the project, as many editors who have regular interaction with me can attest to, nothing more and nothing less. Your question was, I feel, irrelevant and slightly prying. As I said in an edit summary, Misplaced Pages is not Myspace. --Winger84 (talk) 02:24, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
