	The Random Acts of Kindness Barnstar
	Epic teamwork with Neil to help that new editor understand the sourcing requirements! -- Dane2007 03:22, 14 September 2016 (UTC)

2nd Barnstar

	The Civility Barnstar
	For keeping your cool as much as you have throughout this entire situation. I know how much it freaked me out when something similar happened to me a few months ago, so I know how much it must be freaking you out. — Gestrid (talk) 06:56, 24 November 2016 (UTC)

3rd Barnstar

	The Barnstar of Diligence
	Since you started editing earlier this year, you've made the encyclopedia a better place and have weathered more storms than any editor should have in such a short time. I appreciate your contribution and your wikifriendship. LM2000 (talk) 10:51, 30 November 2016 (UTC)

NXT

Here's my deal with NXT and why I was so fervent about it.

The strident desire to call it a developmental. I felt that with all the leaps and pounds NXT took with doing international tours and whatnot, that calling it merely a "developmental" wasn't giving an accurate account of the reality on the ground.

A developmental is a place where rookies are learning the ropes. It's like people still had this vision of NXT as it was in 2012 (with a young Seth Rollins having to help put the ring together to earn meal money), and not seeing the 2016 version.

You don't bring in Nakamura, Joe, Roode, and Eric Young to "teach them" the tricks of the trade, you know.

That's why I was finding every source I could that documented NXT's growth.

So that's where we are.

While I understand that, it is still a form of development for even guys like Joe, Eric, etc. because they have to learn WWEs way of doing things, perfect example of this is mistico/sin cara, he just couldn't adapt. So it isn't just development for the rookies really, it's really for rooks and vets alike to master their character, or mic skills or whatever before getting put on live TV. One of the best things about NXT is how they tape so much in advance so if ya screw up your fine. I think the only true brand or brands is just WWE as a whole, I fully get what your saying though and admire your passion about it. Chris "WarMachineWildThing" 06:57, 11 December 2016 (UTC)

Word to the wise

Do not fuck with others' comments, as you did here . It's not your place. EEng 07:08, 11 December 2016 (UTC)

Is that a threat?? Chris "WarMachineWildThing" 07:11, 11 December 2016 (UTC)

Well, in that if you do it again you're likely to get blocked, I suppose yes, you could see it as a threat. Or you could see it as someone trying to help you understand how things work around here. I have no idea where you get the idea it's OK to remove others' posts. My comment was perfectly serious, by the way. See WP:TPO. EEng 07:15, 11 December 2016 (UTC)

Your comment did not pertain to the ANI, it's straight WP:POV you said the samething here just changed the subject. You are not trying to help anyone. You just wanna try to intimidate someone who doesn't agree with you, dont post to my talk again with your empty threats, you've been reported already, I suggest you back off Chris "WarMachineWildThing" 07:24, 11 December 2016 (UTC)

Collapsing seems appropriate. Serious or not, it was off topic and would've derailed a thread that needs a solution. I'm also not sure if it's correct, in my experience wrestling conflicts (admittedly there are many) seem far less likely to make it to make it to a noticeboard than conflicts in other areas. We lack a sufficient number of experienced editors who know how to report and care enough to.LM2000 (talk) 07:26, 11 December 2016 (UTC)

LM2000 I did change to collapse, and got this Chris "WarMachineWildThing" 07:29, 11 December 2016 (UTC)

It obviously is off topic and belongs collapsed but I don't want to enter into a rockfight over it. The thread will hopefully get closed soon and we can all just move on.LM2000 (talk) 07:34, 11 December 2016 (UTC)

@LM2000: Just to be clear, WMWT went to Oshwah for help. He later decided to act WP:BOLDly and didn't know that WP:TPO existed. When he later hatted the comments, he was following a suggestion I'd given him after I saw his comments on Oshwah's page (after he'd initially removed the comments). This was definitely a case where we should all assume good faith and overlook the mistake. — Gestrid (talk) 07:44, 11 December 2016 (UTC)

Gestrid, LM2000 wasn't the user making the issue out of it or trying to make threats about it. LM agreed about hiding it. Chris "WarMachineWildThing" 07:48, 11 December 2016 (UTC)

Oh, my bad. @EEng:. — Gestrid (talk) 07:52, 11 December 2016 (UTC)

Good news

To end a night of drama with some good news, LOOK WHAT GOT MOVED.LM2000 (talk) 09:24, 11 December 2016 (UTC)

LM2000 was just getting ready to send you the samething lol Chris "WarMachineWildThing" 09:38, 11 December 2016 (UTC)

I don't agree with Davey but it'll be moved sooner or later anyway.LM2000 (talk) 21:09, 11 December 2016 (UTC)

LM2000 he had no reason to move it back, it was a legitimate move, the user who moved it has been here 9 months and over 3000 edits its another typical "I've been here longer attitude" from a vet user. Chris "WarMachineWildThing" 21:31, 11 December 2016 (UTC)

I had every reason to move it back - As I said on my tp I'd rather this gets moved by either an established editor or admin (the latter being my preference), Me being here longer is irrelevant, FWIW I too support the move however I'd rather it was done properly, If doing things by the book is a crime then I'm guilty as charged!. –Davey2010 23:27, 11 December 2016 (UTC)

So because YOU say 9 months isn't long enough that's how it is?? The move was legitimate per the consensus, seeing as you were involved with that consensus you shouldn't have touched it either way. Like I said another vet shitting on newer users.Chris "WarMachineWildThing" 23:43, 11 December 2016 (UTC)

I'm not arguing with you over it, Stay off of my talkpage from here onwards and likewise I will do the same, –Davey2010 23:57, 11 December 2016 (UTC)
