On that AfD discussion for "Put Your Hands Up". It'll get deleted I'm sure of it, but that won't stop me putting my point across. :) Paul237 ( talk) 21:52, 25 May 2011 (UTC)

Hey, Deterence. IMO, you're generally a constructive and insightful participant at ITN/C. However, (and I say this with respect) it's usually a pretty peaceful place, and criticizing the way other editors vote, using words like "flippant", that kind of stuff is never going to be constructive and it pretty much just results in unnecessary arguing. Don't get me wrong, arguing different points is part of ITN/C, but just try to focus on the matters at hand and avoid criticizing other editors entirely, solely because it's never constructive.

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. Swarm 19:49, 2 October 2011 (UTC)
I struck the comment you left on Jonathan Cohler on ANI - given recent discussion (namely, the stuff above), I'd tread lightly if I were you. There are a lot of eyes on the administrative noticeboards, and comments like this have the potential to stir the flames in a way you don't want. Take this on good faith, if you please. m.o.p 12:30, 4 October 2011 (UTC)
I was grateful for your comment on the issues raised on the above talk page. I have had a lot of grief over trying to include some of the reported social events in the house and hope to get more support to get some acknowledgment that the show is a social exercise as much as a gameshow. 86.176.153.183 ( talk) 21:56, 3 October 2011 (UTC)
You're quite right to say I shouln't really have cited Hanlon's Razor at you - actually, you should apply it to my citation thereof if you'd be so kind, since the version in my mind is generally "never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained as a cockup". I still disagree with you on the point in question, but it was never my intention to call you stupid. Dr Marcus Hill ( talk) 16:08, 4 October 2011 (UTC)
I have opened a request for dispute resolution.

Hi,
I appreciate your energy, your passion and your effort. I've been there. I fought many a fight at the Israeli/Palestinian front before I burned out and walked away. I can tell you from bitter experience that sarcasm doesn't win here. Comments like "tear you a new one" will result in long rambling discussions that divert attention away from your topic. The best way to combat absurd remarks is to demonstrate that they're absurd, not to call them absurd (which would not be WP:CIVIL or WP:AGF. I'm rather disgusted with WP right now, because of the slavish devotion to Steve Jobs and "JoePa". Best of luck to you Sir. -- 76.18.43.253 ( talk) 02:09, 16 November 2011 (UTC)
You've thoroughly exhausted my patience, Deterence. Responding to your juvenile insults is tiring enough. You just had to make me waste twenty minutes of my life filing a report to keep you away. Please spend some time reflecting on what you're doing and whether it's worth it. Have a good day. Jim Sukwutput 07:56, 19 November 2011 (UTC)
Have a read through this, take on board as much as you can. You don;t want to end up with escalating blocks, topic-bans, and bans. That's not why you're here, I'm sure. Pesky ( talk … stalk!) 09:06, 19 November 2011 (UTC)
