Hello. Welcome to Flameviper's talk page. This is a place where you can leave messages for me. I will read them and reply, either here or at your talk page. Please do not troll, flame, or do anything else to piss me off. Thank you. ~ Flameviper
Misplaced Pages:Informal checkuser
Can you explain, exactly, what the intent of Misplaced Pages:Informal checkuser is? It just appears to be some hypothesized thing you've come up with. To claim that it will result in an RfC or de-sysopping is purely your own speculation. Metros232 17:38, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
- It violates WP:BLOCK and negates the need for Misplaced Pages:Checkuser. Any sysop isn't supposed to be able to use checkuser. Why do you think that checkuser, as a user right, is so exclusive? And on a side note, I will file the RfC myself and request de-sysopping. ~ Flameviper 17:46, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
- Flameviper, I deleted Misplaced Pages:Informal checkuser. Please don't make up policies and throw them into the WP namespace. If you've got an issue with the way Checkuser is carried out, then discuss it on the talk page. A Train 17:50, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
- You posted on your userpage that the block of User:Squeamish Editor had resulted in your IP being autoblocked and you gave the IP number. That meant that anyone reading that would know you were editing from that IP. There was no use of Checkuser or even any Administrator function involved. It's just a coincidence that one of the people involved is a Checkuser. No one did anything wrong and there's nothing to complain about. If you don't want your IP to be available, I'm sure if you ask nicely someone will delete the edit with your IP number from the history of your archive page. Newyorkbrad 17:56, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
- I know that. But in the future, supposing someone wanted to get my IP address, the damage would already have been done. My IP address would be sitting on a Post-It somewhere in a sysop's basement, just waiting for the day it can be unleashed as hell on earth. ~ Flameviper 18:01, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
