== Your question to me about why I didn't give editors 3 RR notices ==

First, there's the obvious reason. They didn't even get to 3RR. You did. Your attempt to get Drmies blocked at ] was turned down by two Administrators and was clearly a retaliation.
Secondly, the other obvious reason. I saw nothing here or in your archives that suggested you'd ever had a warning. The other two editors quite clearly knew about edit warring. No one gets to over 80,000 edits like Corkiethehornetfan without knowing about it (and I saw discussion in his archives), and Drmies is clearly aware. All of my colleagues on the Arbitration Committee are very well versed in all our sanction policies or we wouldn't have been elected. And he has taken people to 3RR before. Of course, now that you are clear about edit warring, it isn't necessary to warn you before blocking you for it. So I'd advise you to stop at 2RR in the future, 3RR isn't an entitlement. ] ] 08:07, 11 November 2017 (UTC)

Welcome to Sparkie82's talk page. I will generally respond here to comments that are posted here, rather than replying via your talk page (or the article's talk page, if you are writing to me here about an article), so you may want to watch this page until you are responded to, or let me know where specifically you'd prefer the reply.

Wanted to let you know that I'd retired

Your recent editing history at Current members of the United States Senate shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Your question to me about why I didn't give editors 3 RR notices

First, there's the obvious reason. They didn't even get to 3RR. You did. Your attempt to get Drmies blocked at WP:ANEW was turned down by two Administrators and was clearly a retaliation. Secondly, the other obvious reason. I saw nothing here or in your archives that suggested you'd ever had a warning. The other two editors quite clearly knew about edit warring. No one gets to over 80,000 edits like Corkiethehornetfan without knowing about it (and I saw discussion in his archives), and Drmies is clearly aware. All of my colleagues on the Arbitration Committee are very well versed in all our sanction policies or we wouldn't have been elected. And he has taken people to 3RR before. Of course, now that you are clear about edit warring, it isn't necessary to warn you before blocking you for it. So I'd advise you to stop at 2RR in the future, 3RR isn't an entitlement.
