[edit] Hi!

Oh, it's you! Hi. What's with all the different names and tags and IPs stuff.

BTW, just yesterday I came across User:XavierVE's user and talk pages... Jesus that sucks. Anyway I asked himt him to blank them, and he did. Herostratus 08:55, 30 March 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for that. And about the names -- I may or may not be slightly paranoid. 24.224.153.40 20:41, 2 April 2006 (UTC)
Jeez, I wonder why... =) Herostratus 04:41, 3 April 2006 (UTC)

Removing a joke isn't considered vandalism, though. Thanks, 24.224.153.40 00:20, 13 April 2006 (UTC)
We just had an editing conflict. I realized this and was commenting on this page to apologize. Thank you for your work in editing the Wikipedia! >> \\/\//esleyPinkha//\/\\ | 00:22, 13 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] reverting ZS

You are correct that we are building an encyclopedia; positive edits are one important aspect of that aim, but we are also a society of contributors that have to get along in order for the editing environment to function. We have created and agreed upon a social contract for that purpose. Those who live by the agreement are welcome to edit our pages, but those who don't are not.

While the article edits of ZS might be positive, the fact that he is editing after being permanently banned by Jpgordon [1] is damaging to the established social order. It undermines the contract that we have with each other. To allow the existence of any ZS edit says that we are now permitting people to operate outside of the contract. In such a case, a ruling of the arbcom would mean nothing, and the ruling of a top administrator like Jpgordon would be worthless. In an environment where trust and respect for ascendancy no longer exist and insubordinate action is tolerated, there is no authoritative control over the subject matter of an article. --American Saga 14:58, 13 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Edit to Religion and sexual orientation

You added tag NPOV to the article, with the text "+{npov}, slanted against theist bigots".

Could you add a comment to the talk page explaining what exactly is at issue, so that editors can begin to check if they agree or not. Otherwise the tag is liable to be removed with as little discussion as it was put there, which would be inappropriate if you have a valid concern. Many thanks. FT2 (Talk) 23:13, 14 April 2006 (UTC)

Can do. Or maybe I'll just edit it myself, if I have the time. 24.224.153.40 23:17, 14 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] RE:Oops..

No problem, I was about to send you a message about vandalism but realized you were one of the good editors. ;-) Happy editing. Moe ε 02:32, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] time to answer

I'm always glad to engage with you. I don't have time to answer now, but I will as soon as I can.

[edit] recent spam links

I don't who you are but thank you for reverting those spam links that the admin User:Mel Etitis wouldn't.

Please contact me by going to me userpage User:Sgrayban and click on the email this user so I discuss a RfC dispute against him.

Sorry, but I don't support unneccesary litigation, especially here. WP:RFC and WP:RFAr are extremely flawed and annoying processes, particularly in a normally civil environment like Wikipedia. 24.224.153.40 01:07, 16 April 2006 (UTC)
Sorry you feel that way but it was worth to ask atleast. Thanks anyways for dealing with that non-sense that I wasn't allowed to even though I'm a RC Patroller and member of the CVU. --Scott Grayban 01:17, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Not sure if this IP is still you...

But I've replied on my talk page :) porges 02:10, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
