Disengagement

I don't know if it will work. I stopped responding to him a while ago and he still demands my being blocked. He would make a great ArbCom member, no? : D Okay, I'll probably be blocked for that one. Haha, and my oppose was really because you called me a troll before. I should have just said "spite". I still think you'd make a great editor. :P This all makes me wonder if (heaven forbid) I ran for ArbCom - would they oppose me for having a relationship with WR? LOL. Ottava Rima (talk) 02:33, 4 December 2008 (UTC)

Looking at Grace Note's edit amongst others, probably. If I did call you a troll, then I apologize (I'm trying to thrash my memory here to find it, but eh). But walking away and not replying any further would probably help. Thanks for the comment :) SirFozzie (talk) 03:26, 4 December 2008 (UTC)
I made my oppose more appropriate. :P Ottava Rima (talk) 06:01, 4 December 2008 (UTC)

Your candidacy

Please note I've posted further questions - if you could answer them within the next couple of days, that'd be great. Cheers, Ncmvocalist (talk) 09:57, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

I ask that you review your answers to my questions (to ensure that all of them have been addressed). 24 hours from now, I will be reviewing each candidate and preparing final votes. This is a courtesy note to make you aware that I will not look at any further answers or modifications once this time has lapsed. I apologise for an inconvenience caused, and hope that you've been adequately notified. Thank you for your time, Ncmvocalist (talk) 19:04, 10 December 2008 (UTC)
No prob. I've had several irons in the fire, and wanted to make sure that I hadn't left anything too long :) SirFozzie (talk) 19:39, 10 December 2008 (UTC)

Mooretwin

Could you take a look at the messages on User talk:Mooretwin#SSSI, which together with his editing history show editing warring and a rather unbelievable implicit claim of not knowing about the problems I have pointed out to him. I would have already blocked him by now for some of this, but a fresh pair of eyes would be best under the circumstances.  DDStretch  (talk) 00:59, 12 December 2008 (UTC)

DDStretch would do well to go back to my Talk page. His accusation that I claimed not to know about previous problems is false. Mooretwin (talk) 01:11, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
My reply and request to Mooretwin is on my talk page. I have asked him to not post any more to it, given the content of his messages.  DDStretch  (talk) 01:30, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
Your reply didn't make sense. Mooretwin (talk) 01:55, 12 December 2008 (UTC)

Can I ask that you (SirFozzie) take a look at the messages Mooretwin has posted regarding myself, as I am now too involved. On my talk page, he posted many messages after I asked him not to, he has proposed many requested moves (Special Protection Area, Area of Conservation, Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Site of Special Scientific Interest, and Special Area of Conservation), and then voilated WP:CANVASS by posting a non-neutrally worded message on Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style#Capitals, and on his talk page suggested it was a vendetta when I advised him to alter it, which he did using a rather unacceptable form of wording (I consider), and now he has suggested I am being disruptive on his talk page.  DDStretch  (talk) 17:08, 12 December 2008 (UTC)

I'm pretty close to that line, as well. I'm going to try to post a brief thing to AN on this, and get more uninvolved eyes. It's utterly vexing. SirFozzie (talk) 17:14, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
I'd certainly support a posting on WP:AN. The problem is anyone who engages him gets drawn into a debate which would then (I feel) be used to argue about vendetta like things and render them too involved to take any action deemed suitable. Perhaps that point needs to be made somewhere.  DDStretch  (talk) 17:22, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
It's up. Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard#Can_someone_counsel_User:Mooretwin.3F SirFozzie (talk) 17:37, 12 December 2008 (UTC)

Thank you again

For every one who voted in the 2008 ArbCom Elections. See the statement on my user page for more, but it is really appreciated, and I hope everyone who voted will give their full support to the incoming Arbitrators. SirFozzie (talk) 08:05, 16 December 2008 (UTC)

Slight Wikibonk here

My computer is DOA right now, so I may be a bit slow to answer inquiries. Hope y'all understand, but I'lol try to keep in touch as possible. SirFozzie (talk) 08:05, 16 December 2008 (UTC)

(update) Computer about back to normal. My temper, not. Be it friday yet? SirFozzie (talk) 20:34, 17 December 2008 (UTC)

I am so proud...

You've left the nest! لennavecia 15:52, 16 December 2008 (UTC)

Hahaha :) Now I just gotta figure out how to add 2009 to the talkheader without breaking it :) SirFozzie (talk) 17:13, 16 December 2008 (UTC)
Ready when you are. :) You can also combine multiple months into one archive and just renumber the list... or I can do it. Let me know. Your talk page doesn't get much action. لennavecia 08:10, 17 December 2008 (UTC)

Thank you

For this. I think you go easy on Giano in it from my POV, but the general sense is the same. The version I've wanted to express for the last while would be markedly shorter, markedly more profane, and get a whole horde of colourful templates. Tony Fox (arf!) 06:59, 17 December 2008 (UTC)

I echo that. I probably should have voted for you in the elections. No hard feelings? Sarcasticidealist (talk) 07:08, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
None held against any of the folks who voted against me (or for me ;)). It was a good run, and hopefully a harbinger of change with the ArbCom. I just hope people give the new seven (or however many) a chance to settle in and do their job before preemptively declaring the whole thing a farce, failed, etcetera. SirFozzie (talk) 16:20, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
Wowsers, that was a strong statement, SirFoz. I'm hoping you & Giano run for Arbcom (in 2009). GoodDay (talk) 20:25, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
I'm not the type to plan a year ahead. The BEST action would be that the 8 new members of ArbCom provide change, and I don't feel the need to run :) SirFozzie (talk) 20:30, 17 December 2008 (UTC)

Thanks

Thanks, appreciate that a lot. Getting a pain in the arse with these snipping accusations [1], [2], [3] [4] and regardless of who warns them. All the move requests were rejected, so why persist? The way I want to look at it is that it is all in the past and move on from the accusations and personal attacks and assume good faith but it is not looking good at the minute. Anyhow, thanks again, --Domer48'fenian' 21:28, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

Have you seen this here, this is becoming a joke? --Domer48'fenian' 21:37, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
I saw that. If you see what I stated on MBisanz's page, I'm utterly frustrated with Mooretwin (I thought he had something new with regards to the AN and now AE reports, it seems to be a rehash of the stuff I told him not to do. I made MB aware of Jossi's comment regarding the next time Mooretwin was disruptive. I also said that generally you are in the right here. I don't want to get deep into the AE report, because at this point, I don't think anyone can quite call me uninvolved, but that's just my feelings on it. SirFozzie (talk) 21:48, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

Ah no, fair play and credit were its due, you stepped in there and you really didn’t have to. You could have left it to someone else, but didn’t. I’ve moved on, and I can honestly say I don’t let things bother me. I appreciate you stepping in, that you stepped up to the plate and made the call is enough for me. I know full well, if you think I’m in the wrong you’ll let me know quickly enough, and more besides.

I’m putting my contributions together of wiki as you may have noticed, before posting and researching information on a couple of things so as to aim for a featured article. So all I’m doing at the minute is mopping and minor edits. I will not be letting distractions deflect me from our over all goal of building up articles. Efforts by you, such as today contribute just as much to that goal.

I’m still the same editor I was like when I started, tenacious on facts and detail, spirited and enthusiastic. I’ve learned however, that the best response to editors who try to deflect me is to provide well referenced and sourced text. I’m starting to enjoy editing again, and take the BS in my stride. By trying to draw attention to me, they inadvertently draw attention to themselves. If however you had not intervened, I could have been at the mercy of an Admin who did not know the history behind all the bluster. That’s why you were right to do what you did, and why I really appreciated it.

I’d love to give you the opportunity to prove that you can and will come down on me just as hard as anyone else, but unfortunately those days are behind me, and I have no wish or intension of going back. I hope my response is a measure of the appreciation. Thanks --Domer48'fenian' 22:18, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

Just bring this to your attention here, with more of the personal attacks. I've asked Tznkai for some advice on this carry on, less involved and knows some of the background. --Domer48'fenian' 11:24, 24 December 2008 (UTC)

Personal comments

I noticed you made an accusation against me here. I have asked for it to be retracted. I put my hand up if I break the rules, but I have decided no longer to tolerate false accusations. Regards and happy Christmas. Mooretwin (talk) 19:39, 24 December 2008 (UTC)

I did not make a false accusation, Mooretwin. SirFozzie (talk) 19:44, 24 December 2008 (UTC)
You did. You accused me of canvassing, when I didn't canvass. Please have the integrity to withdraw the accusation. Mooretwin (talk) 19:46, 24 December 2008 (UTC)

Merry Christmas

Wishing you the very best for the season. Guettarda (talk) 00:30, 25 December 2008 (UTC)












Happy Holidays

Thanks for making 2008 an interesting and enlightening year for me; our paths have crossed often, and I have found your comments amusing, helpful or thought-provoking—I'll let you guess which ones were which!

Wishing you and yours a joyous holiday season, and happiness, health and hopefulness in 2009. I trust you'll enjoy this little token, a favourite performance of Baby, it's Cold Outside, for your holiday amusement.
Best, Risker (talk) 03:43, 25 December 2008 (UTC)

Merry Christmas to All, and to all a good *CHOMP*

I will be out and about a lot over the holidays. May the new year be even better then the old year to all my Talk page watchers and friends, colleagues, and even those who've been in conflicts with me :) SirFozzie (talk) 16:39, 25 December 2008 (UTC)
