Curly Turkey/Cebr1979 closure
Hi!
Not going to appeal or do anything about it (too much on my plate at the moment) but this was not an especially good close, IMO. A number of users other than Curly Turkey had been talking about an indefinite block for Cebr1979 for disruptive behaviour unrelated to Curly Turkey's talk page, and CT's stating once a mere eleven minutes before your close that he would be content with an informal promise to stay off his talk page didn't negate all the other issues. I don't need another needless fight in a topic area I'm not even interested in at the moment, so I'm just going to pretend I was never involved in this whole affair, but please try to be a bit more careful when closing long and complicated discussions in the future.
And sorry if this seems aggressive. I don't mean it to be. It's just friendly advice.

- @Hijiri88: I don't consider your post aggressive. You are stating your opinions. The original purpose of that entire thread was a dispute between Curly Turkey and Cebr1979. There was never going to be a consensus either way on what to "do" with them and other editor's feelings towards the two of them was irrelevant to the discussion at hand. If they want to open their own ANI thread and complain about either Turkey or Cebr they are more than welcome to do so. In addition, an indef block for either editor would be way over the line as simply punitive and the idea that enough editors would get behind that to form a consensus is farfetched at best. As an uninvolved editor, I have been keeping up with that discussion and there was never going to be a consensus to apply any type of block or ban either way. After a week of back-and-forth that was obvious. Just like it is obvious that the massive cluster that your ANI thread has turned into will lead absolutely nowhere. Prolonging the back-and-forth when the two original parties have reconciled and agreed to terms would be irresponsible and pointless. An admin is more than welcome to undo my close if they feel like the discussion needs to be dragged out further but I highly doubt that is going to happen. --Stabila711 (talk) 18:03, 29 August 2015 (UTC)
