Thanks again. I have on other question, however. Your familiarity with Misplaced Pages, though being a new user, gives me the impression you are a sockpuppet of another, more experienced user. That is not necessarly a problem (it is allowed to have sockpuppets, although some people are strongly against it). If this is the case, however, it would be best to state that explicitly on this page (like this ]) to avoid any comments on this issue in the future.

- Yes, and he says No new namespace, userboxes OK in userspace. The userboxes you were removing were in userspace. They were not templates. Telex
- Still divisive and offensive and still unencyclopedic userboxes. TheCooler
- That's your opinion. --Tēlex 19:39, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
- That's Misplaced Pages policies. This is an encyclopedia. TheCooler
- Prove that Misplaced Pages policy prohibits those userboxes. --Tēlex 19:39, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
(reset indent) Stop vandalising the userpage please. ackoz

- It's not vandalism, but it is disruptive. Will (message me!) 20:16, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
- Why is not not vandalism? — Arthur Rubin | (talk) 21:15, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
- Because he could quite easily believe that these edits improve the encyclopedia. That doensn't make the disruption acceptable, but it doesn't make it vandalism either. -GTBacchus 21:41, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

Userboxes
I suggest that you contact users before you remove their userboxes. Also, I find it strange that almost all of your edits have been on removing userboxes...--☆TBC☆ (aka Tree Biting Conspiracy) 19:38, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
User pages
Please refrain from altering other users' user pages. You have been reported on the Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents. Please read Misplaced Pages:User page#Ownership and editing of pages in the user space about editing other people's user pages. Cpt. Morgan (Reinoutr) 19:48, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
Stop vandalizing my user page. Thank you. --Pockey 21:07, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
Harassment
While Misplaced Pages has a general philosophy that we should avoid statements of political and ideological affiliation to help promote a more harmonious and neutral encyclopedia building effort... your actions have been neither harmonious nor neutral. You cannot use guidelines aimed at reducing conflict as an excuse for harassing others - it inherently contradicts the intent. Your choice to use a sock-puppet account for these activities also clearly indicates that you were aware that your actions would involve an element of harassment. Please stop editing the pages of other users. If you believe particular templates should be deleted you can mark them for speedy or take them to TFD... but you cannot edit war over the content of other user's pages. --CBD 12:12, 20 June 2006 (UTC)
- Is harrassment to be bold and do the right thing as Jimbo said? TheCooler
- He never said remove userfied userboxes from userpages. --Tēlex 19:56, 20 June 2006 (UTC)
- No, Jimbo has not endorsed incivility and harassment. Indeed, he specifically said NOT to do what you have been doing:
- Being unnecessarily inflammatory is never "the right thing". That said, your recent efforts to discuss reasons why we try to avoid such statements are an improvement. --CBD 20:18, 20 June 2006 (UTC)
- Thank you. TheCooler
I can put on my user page what ever I want. Tell me which box you do not like. :) Maybe I can do something. --Pockey 20:00, 20 June 2006 (UTC)
Pestering
You know, I think Misplaced Pages is an encyclopedia. Why don't you actually do some encyclopedia writing instead of pestering users about their userboxes. It would be far more productive to start an article instead of soaking up the bandwidth spamming user talk pages. --Tēlex 20:12, 20 June 2006 (UTC)
- You're the only one pestering here. I'm taking up the advice of CBDunkerson. Unless you have something else to say, please leave me alone. TheCooler
Thank you. Listen, I do not want to discuss about boxes any more. It is my right to believe in some ideas, and if you don't like it, it is your problem. I can just say democratic reunification of Yugoslavia does not have anything whit Greater Serbia. And yes, some way you are right if you say these boxes can irritate other uses. But that is not my aim, and I will think about this. Regards, --Pockey 20:19, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

- It is also intriguing to me to find a new editor who knows all the policies and has strong opinions on their enforcement. Its not considered polite to rename yourself without telling people who you were. Ansell 00:41, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
Userboxes
My Userpage, my bussiness! Is that understood?! Luka Jačov 22:22, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
- What about mine? I think they do not offend anyone, on the contrary. I express my gratitude toward some people, which is more than a legitimate right of any individual. Especially in my case, I am thanking world leaders :). Thanks for dropping a line, anyways. ilir_pz 10:54, 25 June 2006 (UTC)
