| == Welcome to Misplaced Pages == | |||
| {{Welcome}} | |||
| Glad to see you here. I learned of you and your White Rose Society web from listening to ] on ]. You do excellent work. | |||
| I suggest you take some time and comfortable with what a ] is and some of the basic ground rules to being a good editor. I hope you enjoy being part of the ] project, informed persons such as yourself can make useful contributions to the expanding knowledge base. | |||

| == Prod == | |||
| Commendable. Hopefully we can avoid a messy AfD this way. Those trolls (from both sides) really bug me. ---] (]|]) 21:41, 21 June 2006 (UTC) | |||
| : 93! :) I'm not actually a Thelemite, but I could be called... sympathetic. | |||
| : On a side note, If ] goes to AfD, I'd really appreciate it if you keep your comments to the bare-minimum. It seems that wherever you go annon-trolls pop up. I'll maintain aggressive use of {{tl|RPA}} and hopefully things we remain civil. ---] (]|]) 22:12, 21 June 2006 (UTC) | |||

| == ==Re: RFC at ]== == | |||
| I thought you might want to lend your wisdom to the RFC currently underway. ] 04:13, 28 June 2006 (UTC) | |||
| : After more than an hour of investigating the situation, I left my comment (more like diatribe) in the discussion, including a strong condemnation of the flame warring going on in that forum. You do come out of that conversation looking better than most, but a less sympathetic judgment could put you just this side of flame-baiting (which I notice has already come up on your talk page). | |||
| : You were, in my opinion, justified in removing the link, and justified in defending your move. But, as I pointed out, it was not worth an edit war, and it's not worth risking your reputation on Misplaced Pages. It's just a stupid link to a stupid website. | |||
| : I hope this doesn't discourage you, and I hope you continue to work on Misplaced Pages. You look like you're shaping up to be a fine editor. However, I would strongly recommend that you avoid both ] and, particularly, ]. It's not worth your trouble to fight with him. | |||
| : Good luck. If you've got any more questions, or would like to share an opinion with me, don't hesitate to leave me another messages. And thanks for tipping me off to the problem in the first place. - ] <sup>] ] ]</sup> 12:29, 28 June 2006 (UTC) | |||
| Sorry if I came down a little hard. You were really not at fault, in my opinion, for what happened there. I'm just trying to impress upon everyone that this is a bad situation which needs to be avoided. You're doing the smart thing. | |||
| Peace. - ] <sup>] ] ]</sup> 08:44, 29 June 2006 (UTC) | |||

| Looks like it's done. Phew. ---] (]|]) 17:04, 29 June 2006 (UTC) | |||
| == Prove your accusations of personal attacks == | |||
| Per your addition to ], back up your accusation with facts and examples. ] 21:04, 30 June 2006 (UTC) | |||
| == Please refrain from personal attacks == | |||
| With regards to your comments in the history page of the Democratic Underground article, specifically, your needless comment of "I believe the consensus is obvious except to those who will not tolerate it for brittle ideological reasons": Please see Misplaced Pages's no personal attacks policy. "Do not make personal attacks anywhere in Misplaced Pages. Comment on content, not on the contributor. Personal attacks damage the community and deter users." Please keep this in mind while editing. Thanks. ] 02:28, 1 July 2006 (UTC) | |||
| :* It's not a personal attack, since it was not directed at you personally. ] 06:14, 1 July 2006 (UTC) | |||
| ::*No, actually, it was directed at me personally because I am the one who restored the section and asked for proof of the alleged consensus. ] 06:27, 1 July 2006 (UTC) | |||
| :::*Believe that if you like. You will anyway. ] 06:28, 1 July 2006 (UTC) | |||

| Without ever admitting that you were wrong and were grossly misusing and twisting Wiki's guidelines, of course. | |||
| -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | |||
| Because I wasn't wrong. You were. Especially with your repeated personal attacks. I could have had you banned, and an admin even asked me if I wanted you banned. | |||
| Well, Jinxie, it was ANOTHER person you attacked. | |||
| And as it happens the Admin is somebody I know from the bartcopnation chat room, and have known for many years now, and who would do anything I asked him to do. | |||
