How to abuse a talk page.
In a recent post, Lionelt outlined a simple plan to get rid of me:
- Guy like that are just the cost of doing business at Misplaced Pages. Once his talkpage fills up with enough warnings and blocks someone will take him to ANI. He'll get a second chance, then a mentor, then another chance, then some kind of voluntary sanctions, then a topic ban, and when he finally realizes he won't be able to push his POV he'll disappear. Going by his edit frequency, this process will take a couple months. Just be patient, always warn him on his talk when he's disruptive, and never never edit war with him. That only engenders sympathy for him.– Lionel 07:32, 28 July 2012 (UTC)
Not coincidentally, when I cleared my talk page, the person he was writing to immediately reverted my wipe. I think it's painfully obvious what's going on here.
I have nothing to hide; I'm proud of my small achievements here and I fully expect that some people will be unhappy with them. However, this talk page is not going to serve as a sewer for these people to fill with bogus notices intended to create the illusion of a pattern of disruptive editing.

- No, thanks. I don't care enough about this to bother. I've explained why User:JournalScholar is wrong to make those changes, but I'm leaving it at that. Editors with more patience are free to pick up the ball. Still-24-45-42-125 (talk) 08:32, 14 August 2012 (UTC)

- I think you're going to lose an editor at this rate, because I'm not willing to put up with this BS.
You've got to put up with a hell of a lot more than that to survive around here. Filing reports at ANI against the people you are involved in a content dispute with doesn't work. I thought you knew that by now. Viriditas (talk) 12:13, 15 August 2012 (UTC)
- This isn't a content dispute, it's a vendetta. Good to know you have my back. Still-24-45-42-125 (talk) 12:15, 15 August 2012 (UTC)
- The vendetta only exists if you acknowledge it. Your reaction is much more powerful than anything Lionel and Belchfire can say or do, and the cool thing is, you are in complete control of it. Use it wisely. Viriditas (talk) 12:16, 15 August 2012 (UTC)
