We hope that you choose to become a Wikipedian and create an account. Feel free to ask me any questions you may have on my talk page. By the way, make sure to sign and date your comments with four tildes (~~~~). HighInBC ^{(Need help? Ask me)} 01:49, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

Please do not edit the user pages of other contributors without their approval or consent, as you did with User:HighInBC. It may be seen as vandalism. riana_dzasta 19:38, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

I strongly suggest you stop adding the {{banned}} template to users' pages. Only a community decision can ban a user. Please stop, lest your actions be regarded as trolling. riana_dzasta 19:43, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

Fair enough. We warn users for vandalism, we don't ban people for adding silliness to an article. And we most certainly do not ban people for recreational, off-Wiki habits. Happy editing, riana_dzasta 19:49, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

Check out WP:TT for a range of templates you can use to place on talkpages of an editor who might have vandalised. We tend to go through progressive warnings. And don't worry too much about vandalism - most of it is nuked pretty quickly. riana_dzasta 19:58, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

Please stop adding fake templates to peoples user pages or you will be blocked from editing. HighInBC ^{(Need help? Ask me)} 01:21, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

I see you have stopped for a while now, thank you. HighInBC ^{(Need help? Ask me)} 01:28, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
