| Hello Lara, I've just been reflecting on my early days on Misplaced Pages, and what a good team we were. I hope you are Indubitably well, and wish you all the best in every endeavour. '']'' 20:01, 12 April 2023 (UTC) | |||

| ::: Hi Lara, I'm pretty dismayed by Misplaced Pages: any pretence at NPOV has been lost, as there is a bias in active contributors on almost every topic. I recently lost my bit for inactivity, which pissed me off a lot. Meanwhile editor numbers seem to have dropped, and so there are many pages that are just piles of cow shit that no one cares about any more. It might be painless to bring such articles to B level, maybe close to GA, so I am experimenting with that idea. Let me know if you are interested in such an adventure. In any case, I hope you are well. '']'' 00:41, 20 November 2023 (UTC) | |||

| == Some random thoughts == | |||
| ::: Hahaha - thanks for the reply - same old straight-talking Lara! After my desysopping experience, I am loath to do stuff for free here also, but I like to learn about things that interest me. Most recently the origins of life caught my interest, and the articles and templates on WP contradict each other, including some GAs, which is fucking annoying. If I can be bothered to do something about it, I will, but I totally get your perspective! Be well! '']'' 22:10, 20 November 2023 (UTC) | |||

| When I searched the above page for "Jennavecia", I did not get a hit on your support vote. I then realized that the "J" in your signature was another utf-8 character and searched for "ennavecia".

| ANI does have a purpose; its scope and function have limits. It used to be that non-admin editors were the ones who lost sight of that--not the sysops themselves. Consider the actual subject of that thread: Law/The Undertow. He has his good points; I want to see the fellow make a legitimate return someday like Rootology and Jack Merridew have. Does that become more likely or less likely when sysops engage in mutual recriminations? Wouldn't it be more effective in the long run to ''model'' good behavior? | |||

I may not turn the bitch switch up to 11 anymore, but there's not turning it off completely. Everything I stated was fact, and I was chill the whole time. Usually laughing, actually, so I'm going to have to conclude that I handled it pretty well. Maybe not the peaches and cream, rainbows and butterflies other people would have put forth, but this is how I am. Everyone should know that by now. I don't deny being a bitch. Drama-mongers shouldn't deny being drama-mongers. ] 15:27, 30 September 2009 (UTC) | |||
| For what it's worth, I support deleting ]. Jennavecia, I was hoping to get a point across to you, not to start a feud. I am dropping the matter now that you know know how I feel. You don't need to agree with me. Yeah, I have fairly strong feelings about principals and will stand up and say what I think even if it causes a lot of drama. Luckily I wasn't born in the middle of a war or revolution or I'd never have made it 41 years on this planet. ] <sup>]</sup> 15:31, 30 September 2009 (UTC) | |||
| :Hey, ya know, I support standing up for what you believe in and passionately fighting for it. So I won't fault you for that specifically, but I certainly don't appreciate being a target in a matter where there's no administrative action to be made, so instead it distracts from the matter at hand. At least it's over now, though. Thanks for the note. ] 15:33, 30 September 2009 (UTC) | |||

| :(ec x3) No one is attempting to silence either of you. You're entitled to your opinions and debate is welcome. We're Wikipedians after all; that's what Wikipedians do. It's mainly a question of venue. When an editor comments on an article within the article, we ask them to move it to talk. User talk or policy talk would have been better in this instance, with conduct RfC a possible followup if that failed. ANI's purpose is for airing urgent situations that may need the use of the tools. Neither of you were requesting a block on the other, so that side discussion really would have been better to move elsewhere. <font face="Verdana">]</font><sup>'']''</sup> 15:41, 30 September 2009 (UTC) | |||

| :There's no way to fix it. People need to prioritize. This sort of shit simply doesn't matter. It's drama to latch onto. <p>You can't give the blocking/banning policy teeth. It's not in the software. Accounts get blocked, not people. It's not possible. The Citizendium approach is stupid. I can sign up with an infinite number of fake names. The only way to fix it, or come close to, which I have stated many times, is to required domain emails for registration. Of course this doesn't prevent people from creating multiple emails for multiple socks, but not everyone has access to multiple domain emails or has the ability to create them. Along those same lines, not everyone has a domain email to begin with, so ''everyone can edit'' becomes ''everyone with a domain email'' can edit. <p>I don't see anything changing. It's impossible to change much on this project anyway. However, if we had to chose between improving the project at the expense of the community or improving the dynamic of the community at the expense of the project, I think the decision is pretty easy. ] 17:43, 30 September 2009 (UTC) | |||

Not wiki-related (really)Hello Lara, I've just been reflecting on my early days on Misplaced Pages, and what a good team we were. I hope you are Indubitably well, and wish you all the best in every endeavour. Geometry guy 20:01, 12 April 2023 (UTC)
I stumbled upon your page (oddly enough, because I recognized you in File:Bathrobe pwns.gif and didn't know you renamed yet again). Anyhow, I missed the days when we did Good article sweeps. I hope you're doing well these days. OhanaUnited 05:15, 2 February 2024 (UTC) |
