I had thought you were forging Durova's signature so I blocked you. Sorry for that. After it was pointed out to me that you had merely deleted other's comments, I unblocked you, restored those comments, and also restored your comment. Happy editing. - Jehochman Talk 17:03, 20 November 2007 (UTC)

Oh **did you**. Really. I see that you blocked me with no means for response, to counter the accusation, which is not normal. I don't think this is was a mistake at all. But you know that. Unless you can explain to me what made you "think" as you put it, that I impersonated Durova. You could have at least have made up a more plausible lie for blocking an entire IP space in my region. (He didn't only block me. He blocked an IP space).
Come to think of it, how did this guy move this important discussion off the ANI board? To hide it?85.5.180.48 (talk) 17:10, 20 November 2007 (UTC)

Please assume good faith, it was just a misunderstanding. I unblocked you right away and restored your post. There's been a discussion at this page where it was agreed to move long threads to sub pages because the board was getting too large, slowing down browser performance. A bunch of threads were moved, not just this one. - Jehochman Talk 18:08, 20 November 2007 (UTC)

Additionally, moving a thread to a sub page increases transparency because people can watchlist that specific page so edits don't slip past unnoticed. It is also possible to link to the sub page from prominent places, as I have done here and here. I hope this helps. - Jehochman Talk 18:15, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
JeHochman: Not only did you autoblock me without any notice, for no reason, but you blocked an entire range of IPs, not only mine. And you made it impossible for me to respond. So don't lecture me about 'good faith', after that stunt, because it insults your own intelligence, in addition being patently, obviously hypocritical. Just a bit of friendly advice. About the 'blanking comments': you gave as an excuse to Binguen, but never informed me directly, which robs this assertion of credibility. Such antics insult the intelligence of others. Whereas you might feel intellectually superior to others, it's never a good idea to make that obvious, partly as it may not be true, partly because it is not a socially attractive personal characteristic. 85.5.180.48 (talk) 08:15, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
