Bugs, can I ask you a favor? Can you say something humorous and witty, plz? If I have to read one more nasty comment I'm going to have to get angry. And you wouldn't like me when I'm angry. >:). ] (]) 20:13, 19 April 2009 (UTC)

(Maybe they should send him to get an MRI and bribe the tech to mark up the film, so they can put him on the DL and send him to the minors on a rehab assignment.) <b><i>]</i> <sub>] / ]</sub></b> 05:52, 21 April 2009 (UTC)

== Constructive Anger Management ==

I'm more than a little annoyed at ] for this accusation: , not only b/c of how wrong it was, but the reason he got it was looking up dirt on Collect to put on his RfC (or looking for supporting collusion b/t myself and Collect). What are the proper steps to take? I'm not sure this right for AN/I but it shows some seriously flawed methods for conducting an RfC. Heck, he also dragged ''you'' into this: ] (]) 03:22, 21 April 2009 (UTC)

:::Well, ppl contacted and request made to close the RfC and either start a new one, or try other methods. What's new with you? ] (]) 02:58, 22 April 2009 (UTC)
::::So it ultimately went nowhere, eh? It didn't seem like a very coherent RfC. They're mad at Collect, but they can't quite prove why he should be blocked or whatever. I've had some words with him in the past, but nothing we couldn't overcome, and in fact he was right, in the case I'm thinking of; and he was also supportive in other ways, so I personally had no issues with him. Everyone's different, though. ] <sup>'']''</sup> ] 03:08, 22 April 2009 (UTC)

''Collect's traditional allies

Unless you've got other examples, I don't think anyone's trying to annoy ''you''''

What's hilarious is the last one is THF (he lumped you two together) and Gwen Gale is also mentioned. It's idiocy like this that makes the whole thing seem out of bounds if you know what I mean. ] (]) 04:36, 22 April 2009 (UTC)

::I'm tired as well so I can sympathize. Yeah, an anon was blocked. This came from Ikip's summary, the one full of incident's he has no knowledge of and also he's the one who accused me of being Collect's Meat puppet or of us doing tag team. What's ironic is that we were on opposite sides of the dispute in this instance. ] (]) 04:43, 22 April 2009 (UTC)
:::I still don't get why they're quoting me ''at all'' in there. That was about the banned ] impersonating Collect. How does that situation end up in an RfC? ] <sup>'']''</sup> ] 04:46, 22 April 2009 (UTC)

::::::So Bugs, who are ''you'' to be giving ''him'' orders? One rule for Baseball Bugs and another for everyone else? Please. The brow-beating, shouting and stamping of the virtual foot (paw?) just aren't helpful. Things are difficult enough there already, surely you can see that. It needs cool heads and wise counsel. Your presence is most welcome, but we less experienced (and reformed, in some cases) Wikipedians trust our more experienced colleagues to post in a temperate manner when they suddenly, er, hop into a page that has a history of intemperate dialogue and frayed nerves. Not enough action at your favorite drama board? :~) ] (]) 23:02, 22 April 2009 (UTC)
:::::::Wow, lightning response at my talk! Thanks. The idea of him "dragging" you into the RfC seems a little far-fetched to me but hey, WTF, if that's how it feels to you then who am I to argue. As to your questioning him about his motive(s), that's a little more complicated than it appears on the surface because I think the question is driving at a ''base'' motive. I mean, although the question looks fair, the context (the general atmosphere of conflict; your evident irritation and air of being wronged etc.) implies that you're not going to be satisfied with any answer that doesn't reveal a base motive. Also, give the guy his due. He felt he had answered the question to his satisfaction and told you that that was all you'd get - and you went on beating him up. Personally, I have no dog in that particular hunt. My concern is that there's been a lot of ] flying around on that talk page. It escalates a situation that, even handled in a temperate way, is bound to be sensitive and difficult. I just want to see cool-headedness prevail. You're capable of it, so it would be great if you'd dispense some! Thanks. ] (]) 23:34, 22 April 2009 (UTC)

== Quick question ==

Wasn't there a template message that you couple put on an article to get more editors involved?

I've been watching and editing at times the article: ] and have been finding all sorts of problems with it including it uses labels to label everything in either conservative and liberal, relies heavily on opinions of people, seems like a promotional piece to me, and the images seems to be promoting a point than illustrating the article to name a few issues. I am thinking if there were more eyes on the article it could be rewritten in a better and more neutral manner. ] (]) 12:05, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
:I am not sure. There are templates for things like "no references" or "reference improve" or "neutrality questioned". I just don't know that there's anything about those templates that alerts someone - unless it assigns a special category. Unfortunately, I don't know if that's the case or not, nor how effective it is. If there is a serious issue, you could always take it to ] and ask for advice. That alone would broaden the audience. ] <sup>'']''</sup> ] 12:16, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
::Thanks. ] (]) 12:23, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
:::I believe some of the tags (I know stub is one) you can add using ] also add a category and there are people that monitor those categories. This is no guarantee that someone will come running but it may get more eyes on it in the long run and is a lot more specific than an RfC. You could ask for a ] if the circumstances are right (if it's just you and some other editor and you've got a conflict you can't get past), or you could always post an ] to attract some real attention. ] (]) 12:29, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
::::My main issue is I want to get more eyes on on the article mainly due to the way it is written. The three main issues I am worried about is that the majority of the article is devoted to people's opinions of the event, there is a conservative vs liberal tilt, and the images seem to be trying to push a point, just to name a few problems. Even if just one person chimes in, would be helpful. ] (]) 12:46, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
:::::Third opinion might be worth a try unless there are already many editors. RFC might be good. It might be worthwhile to see how the Palin and Obama articles have been handled. Things got so bad on those articles at various points that they were semi-protected or fully protected, and then put on 1R probabtion. ] <sup>'']''</sup> ] 13:11, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
::::::Well before I try a third opinion, could ya spare a moment and take a look at the article. It has the makings of becoming another brouhaha. ] (]) 13:25, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
:::::::I just read through it. It doesn't seem overly one-sided to me at the moment. However, I have not looked at the talk page to see what the burning issues are. That will have to wait until I have a larger block of time. ] <sup>'']''</sup> ] 13:41, 21 April 2009 (UTC)

== Yankee Stadium photo ==
Terrific shot of the new ballpark playing field! Little did you know that would turn into one of the more infamous days in Yankees history. I wonder if you have a shot of the scoreboard with that football score number up there. More importantly, do you think the outfield is really the same shape as in the old stadium? From that photo, it looks to me like the 399 sign is closer to center than it was in the old park. But that might be an illusion. ] <sup>'']''</sup> ] 13:22, 21 April 2009 (UTC)

:Yeah, I know. It was rough. Made rougher since I had two days earlier been at the thumping they got at opening day. At least I witnessed a victory tonight against the A's. Hopefully they'll win at my next game, a May 5th game against Boston. Nevertheless, I did get a good shot there. That's where the tickets for the game were, and I wanted a good shot overall to replace the batting practice shot, given the fact that the tarp and cage were on the field, and that there had been many changes since then. I actually got better angles later in the game, but the stands were too scarce, and there was that score, so yeah, I do have pics of them up 22-4. And yes, the outfield is actually very different. The cardinal dimensions are the same, but the route the fence takes in between is very different. In fact, I am starting to believe that the RF and LF dimensions are different, but the markings were moved to where the fence is those dimensions. For a good reference, go to http://www.andrewclem.com/Baseball/YankeeStadium_II.html. If you hover over "Yankee Stadium I" it will switch. I love that site, and visit it frequently. The study of the ballparks interests me greatly. --] (]) 05:53, 22 April 2009 (UTC)

== You know... ==

Something might come out of Collect's RfC after all. I think that it might be good to mention what I said on the RfC page: "An RfC is not a Grand Jury hearing." ] (]) 14:30, 22 April 2009 (UTC)

It's hard to say anything unkind about ]. He just cranks out innings, being very good or very bad depending on whether the God knuckleballers pray to is paying attention that day.

:Ah, yes, and another sterling outing by Scott Baker, who's become a household word. As in Scott's lawn-and-garden products. ] <sup>'']''</sup> ] 22:27, 22 April 2009 (UTC)

==Ikip==
Read my edit summary; the validity of his behavior wasn't something I was questioning, more the location at which you chose to air the dirty laundry. "Outside views" are views on the user/situation described in the RfC; Ikip is not one of them. His behavior is questionable, but that ''isn't'' the right place to bring it up. ] (]) 20:55, 23 April 2009 (UTC)
:..Excuse me? I've opposed Ikip and his supporters at that RfC since day ''one''. Stop assuming Bad Faith and follow the ''general principles'' of the RfC. An outside view is, according to the standard RfC template, "a summary written by users not directly involved with the dispute but who would like to add an outside view of the dispute". That doesn't cover you. I'm not trying to hide ''anything''; I have no interest in your squabble with him whatsoever. You were completely going against the purpose of the outside view section despite a clearly worded message at the top telling you that this was the ''wrong'' place to put such things. That is why I removed it. I'd ask you to stay away from my talkpage until you have calmed down and can understand that not everyone who disagrees with you is in cahoots with some kind of Ikip Cabal. And I'll expect the first message back to be a bloody apology as well.] (]) 21:03, 23 April 2009 (UTC)
::You obviously do need some kind of lecture, since you don't seem to be understanding basic rules about communication with other editors. Let me break it down for you: asking me why I'd done something, good thing. Gave me a chance to explain. Following this up by accusing me of " it brought up someplace where it won't be noticed, while he's allowed to continue his misleading activities", bad thing. Bad Faith. Essentially accused me of attempting to continue posting his material. My interactions with Ikip and his league are notably without agreement, which I would've thought would make most people think that maybe, just maybe, an action not directly in ''your'' favour might not be done just to please him and his buddies either. If you want to bring the posting of material up at AN/I, fine, but it is likely to be ignored. As suggested, discuss it on the talkpage. If the talkpage people have already rejected your point of view (which they appear to have done) then consider ]. If you want to bring our interactions and my refusal to let you post material in a clearly inappropriate place, fine, but you'll get shat on by the regulars just as much as me. ] (]) 21:12, 23 April 2009 (UTC)
:::Bugs, I've already raised concerns about this on AN/I. Nothing, no one wants to go near it. I suggest that instead we simply let it run its course. If they truly think that it's going to help them they're sadly mistaken. I think that if they try to take the next step this is going to hurt them and so we just need to back off for now. ] (]) 21:17, 23 April 2009 (UTC)
::::OK, fine. I'll back off from this. For now. But I've got an ANI posting ready to go if it proves necessary. ] <sup>'']''</sup> ] 21:21, 23 April 2009 (UTC)
:::::I've honestly got no problem with any ANI posting about Ikip's behavior; how much attention it gets, of course, is unknown (but then it always is.

  • This is Ron liebman. Even though I've been banned since 2007, due to being too trivial for words, I still come by on a regular basis and hang a few more socks from my perpetually unwashed laundry. I was beside myself when Buggs announced his retirement, and that was rough because one of me was already too many. Without Bugges to hassle, life was almost not worth living. I talked to my priest, and he advised me to take it easy on my constitution, and make amendments with Buggges and promise to never sock again. And if I should ever break that promise, may an earthquake swallow the NY Public Library during working hours. Go Cubs! -- Ron liebman (talk) 23:99, 24 March 2009 (UTC)

Its easy to sound hard from your parents basement... Yeahhh... right... sincerity... thats what yuo were going for... your recent thrashing at that RfAdminship shows you know how things work around here real good... all I am doing with Bugs is setting the drag to zero so he can take as much rope as he can tear out of the reel to hang himslef.

Now then, mind you, if you do have a great notion to take the fast track to an indef, here's an example of how to do that: And if you take that path, be sure not to say it to a mere mortal; place it on an admin's talk page, where it will get a "quick" response.

Admisitrator?

For those who may be under the false impression that I'm an admin, I invite you to visit Misplaced Pages:Requests for adminship/Baseball Bugs and witness the carnage. Baseball Bugs carrots 16:28, 10 March 2009 (UTC)

Hey, I just noticed that you had been through RFA, which I don't usually track so closely. Sorry to see it was such a dramafest. Just want to let you know that, even though I haven't always agreed with you, I've enjoyed my encounters with you on WP, and think you've made a pretty impressive contribution to the project. Keep up the good work! -Pete (talk) 20:16, 12 April 2009 (UTC)
FWIW, please contact me if you do it again (per your chat on Pete's page). tedder (talk) 03:21, 13 April 2009 (UTC)
Hey! I was pretty much away from WP for a while, and had no idea you were up for RfA, or I woulda voted for you -- despite the fact that you told me ages ago you'd never want to be one. Ed Fitzgerald t / c 05:56, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
