As they say in the movies, "oh be-have". Seriously, though, we are trying to write an encyclopedia here, so don't make joke edits. Some readers looking for a serious article might not find them amusing. Remember, millions of people read Misplaced Pages, so we have to take what we do a bit seriously here. If you'd like to experiment with editing, try the sandbox, where you can write whatever you want (as long as it's not offensive).
Familiarize yourself with WP:CSD. I have wikipedia policy behind me. Thank you, TheCooler
Misplaced Pages is not censored. Telex

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)

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
