| For those of you that have been checking out my ], you already know that it was a fucking ''disgrace''. For those of you who haven't, now you know. Trust me, I've been taking so much shit from editors who have a beef with my edits that I ], but this is a new low. | |||
| It started innocently enough is ], when I registered the account (hey, better to correct stupid typos under "21655" than 68.62 blah blah blah). The username was an obvious choice for those who kn'''e'''w me on ] under the same name. For those who didn't, it's a long story involving typing "216" for no reason at all into the "Preferred Username" box, finding it was taken, and picking the shortest one RuneScape came up with. | |||

| The Golden Age of 21655's Editing came in late February of 2008, when I got my hands on ] 0.6.3. Or something like that. Firing it up, I started whacking/reporting vandalism like never before. My edit count skyrocketed. And now, it rests at about 4000 (for those of you about to warn me about editcountitis, shut the fuck up and keep reading. I'm fully aware of that and I don't think I care anymore, now that I'm leaving). | |||
| On ], my mood took a serious downturn. My edit summaries became more aggressive, my warns more erroneous, and my talk page messages...well, you get the picture. | |||
