| Sorry to see you blocked. I'm trying to find common ground on this but the proponents of Principle I just seem to become more and more inflexible at various attempts to compromise. I suggest something and it gets shot down with something like "you lost just accept it and stop debating us". Any ideas you have on the matter would be helpful. Thanks. --] | ] 23:22, 1 September 2006 (UTC) | |||
| SPUI: I'm sorry to have had to block you again, but I did, with regret. I chose 15 minutes, a very short block, so you get the point that I am not kidding but you are not really stopped from participating. Please let me repeat... I'm not kidding. Your recent contributions are doing the same thing as the thread on 1 Setpember... arguing instead of moving this forward. Just don't. Please. When you come back just explain what needs to be done and leave it at that. ++]: ]/] 16:12, 5 September 2006 (UTC) | |||

| ::My aim is to implement what I believe ArbCom wants to have happen. I remind you I asked ArbCom for clarification about my approach, and barring them sahing I'm on the wrong track, and also given the support I'm getting on AN/I (as I read it) I am going to continue with that approach. Does it make a mockery of consensus? That's a harsh way to put it, but yes, consensus has been suspended, (except that there is a metaconsensus to suspend it, whether or not you agree) for the duration. I am not convinced the process is a farce,any more than the whole question is a farce in the first place. As for your being productive or not, that's your choice, you were blocked because in my view you were not being. You can come back, and be productive, (under my metric and that of the other admins involved), or you can not participate (voluntarily or involuntarily) which is entirely up to you. But this process will run to conclusion. With or without you. I'm really sorry. It's nothing personal. But you weren't helping. ++]: ]/] 16:31, 5 September 2006 (UTC) | |||

| SPUI, what I'm seeing here is that you've admitted that you're unable to see when you're being disruptive. This explains a lot. Yet, you're simultaneously not taking other people's advice when they tell you to chill out. You're giving no indication whatsoever of being willing to change your approach. Is it any wonder that more and more editors feel you've exhausted the community's patience? ] ] 16:50, 5 September 2006 (UTC) | |||
| ==double-redirect bot== | |||
| Hi SPUI, | |||
| Recently a poll was passed to change all the programming langauges from X programming language to X (programming language) -- kind of like the highway naming poll, except with a better result. However, there's a billion double redirects now for every page, and it's getting painful to be fixing them. Do you know of a bot that cafn help me with this? | |||
