The correct procedure is for me to arhive about 32k worth and then copy back anything current.--Light current 17:08, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

If you know any other mature and experienced users, you should nominate them for adminship. —Malber (talk contribs) 20:36, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

Favourites for RfC

In order of my preference

RfC

I see that you've identified me as one of your targets for RfC in this edit. I'd be glad to help you with it in any way you need, if jabbing out at me will make you feel better and could help you get past whatever strange thing you're going through, then let's get started. Since you're current under sanction, might I suggest that you begin work on the formal RfC in your userspace on a subpage instead of soapboxing on your talk page? That way, once your block is over, you can move it straight over to RfC and get the ball rolling. - CHAIRBOY () 23:49, 27 January 2007 (UTC)

I'm with Chairboy on this one. I'll be happy to co-operate with you in anyway I can. Rockpocket 00:15, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
Please dont be sarcastic, hypocritical or condescending toward me. Thanks 8-((--Light current 01:03, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
Could you explain please how anyone other than you is being any of the above at the moment? - CHAIRBOY () 01:05, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
Yes. Look at your own edits for a start.--Light current 01:07, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

BTW, I note that you appear to have accidentally deleted this section, so I've restored it for your response. As you've just 'promoted' me (I take it you disagree with some things I've been saying) on your enemies list, I strongly urge you to consider my offer above more than ever. - CHAIRBOY () 00:28, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

Strange you should all be as keen as turkeys at Xmas. Seems to be a cocky attitude to me8-?--Light current 00:53, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
We're just trying to help. That your behavior has been egregious is obvious to everyone but yourself. If an RfC can give you the reality check that gets you back on the right path, then we should do it by all means, and immediately. - CHAIRBOY () 01:01, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
No youre not! Please dont try to patronise me 8-(( You will feel the full force of an Rfc. Are you braced for it?--Light current 01:06, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
I understand that you're frustrated, but I'm not patronizing you. RfC isn't a weapon, btw, it's a tool to gauge community consensus on something special. No 'bracing' is needed, and like I mentioned above, I'm offering to assist you in any way necessary in your efforts to file the RfC. - CHAIRBOY () 01:09, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
I dont believe you! What about blocking: is that a weapon, punishment or preventaive measure?--Light current 01:11, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

I'll ask the admin who's currently blocking you if they'd consider unblocking you on the condition that you'd only edit the RfC you're filing for the remnant of your block, I just want to make sure you'll abide by those conditions before I make the request. - CHAIRBOY () 01:36, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

Not worth the effort. I have so many things to say to so many people. Not just about inapproporiate and outrageous admin actions and comments.
Maybe its best for me to be forced to store them up and let them fester in order to vent them with maximum ejaculatory force, virulity and damning damage when I am finally unblocked? 8-)--Light current 01:51, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

Now that your block is up, I assume that you'll be filing the RfC. Can I assist? - CHAIRBOY () 02:09, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

Im just recovering from a painful shoulder injury so my response time may be a little longer thtn normal 8-((--Light current 02:12, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
Based on the prolific number of edits you've made today, I take it you've healed! Good to hear, I'm glad you had a speedy recovery. I assume you'll be creating the RfC now? - CHAIRBOY () 02:07, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
thank you im getting better. but part of my editing ability tonite is due to lots of pain killers and a few beverages. I shall need to recover my emotional strength before embarking on tha RfC (which of course can only be on one person). so I would ask you to have patience. remember, this is not a persnal revenge attack against the unlucky admin: this is an attempt to get admins to abide by the current blocking policy -- thats all. nothing personal you understand. basically i would like to say that i have nothing against the individual adm=ins as people: its just some of their actions i disagree with. 8-)--Light current 02:17, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
Also, I would hope that the community is prepared to give me just a little 'warm up' time after my recent spell in the cooler. Im warming up by doing some editing on real (important) articles (how novel!)--Light current 02:24, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

Light current, if you're going to go ahead and file an RfC (or several RfCs), then do so. You've been expressing disinterest – sometimes rather rudely – in receiving advice or input from the community in the informal setting of your talk page (, , to choose a couple just from today). If you feel that a more formal and structured request for comment is the route that you need to follow, then so be it.

I dont really understand what you re saying here! 8-?--Light current 22:48, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

Now you're engaging in a ranking (and reranking) of editors for your RfC threat (). Calling those editors 'evil' – which is what you're doing, whether it's struck through or not – and playing silly games with their rankings is both impolite and unproductive. Either file an RfC or quit playing Sword of Damocles. You've said (just up there ↑) that you're interested in contributing productively for a while rather than filing an RfC, and that you're not driven by a desire for personal revenge—good on you. Live up to those statements. TenOfAllTrades(talk) 22:42, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

Gonna block me again? What ewxcuse this time?--Light current 22:45, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
You've been taking jabs at people like this quite a bit over the last 24 hours. If you want to make yourself a martyr, you'll succeed; if you want to contribute, then stop playing games. As Ten said, either file an RfC or move on. -- SCZenz 22:50, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
Why so impatient my furry friend? And what do you mean by jabs?--Light current 22:53, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
(after edit conflicts) I'd actually prefer that you stick with being a productive and polite editor, and try to resist the urge to goad other editors into blocking you by being rude and keeping a ranked shitlist. I don't get some sort of perverse pleasure from seeing you blocked, you know. You're a very intelligent contributor who is capable of doing good writing and being a net benefit to Misplaced Pages. I wish you'd stick to doing that, rather than trying to figure out how to make me – or someone else – block you. TenOfAllTrades(talk) 22:53, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
