Hello Smuuv and welcome to Wikipedia. I have removed your comments to this RFA:
Your account is too new and therefore your comments will be disregarded. Please allow some time to get accustomed to Wikipedia procedures, such as the ones used at
WP:RFA. When you become an established editor, please feel free to participate.
When you oppose an RFA candidate due to concerns such as
WP:BITE, it's best to back your reasoning with proof, otherwise your comments might be equally disregarded by the closing bureaucrat.
When you change your mind and want to change to neutral (which I assume you were trying to), please strike your previous position, otherwise the closing bureaucrat won't know where exactly do you stand and then your comments will definitely be disregarded.
Smuuv, from
WP:RFA, "Any Wikipedians, including users who do not have an account and/or are not logged in ("anons"), are invited to participate in the comments section and ask questions," so please don't listen to a word Husond says when he states that your comments will be disregarded. When the vote is very close, the
bureaucrat may look at account age and may choose to weigh the statements of established users more highly, but you are welcome to participate in all RFAs no matter how new you are.
Husond deleted your comments from the RFA, and I restored them. You had posted comments both under "Oppose" and under "Neutral", so it was a little unclear what your position was. I restored your comments under "Oppose." If you were trying to change your position to "Neutral," please let me know and I will move them for you if you need help. Above, where Husond states that it would help if you provided an example of when Magnus was mean to you, he's absolutely right. If you feel he was mean, people will be more likely to understand if you can show an example.

Any Wikipedian with an account is welcome to comment in the Support, Oppose and Neutral sections.
In a really close RFA, the comments of new users are often not counted when the comments are tallied, because there are concerns about possible fraud. I hope you can understand. However, you are always welcome to comment, and Husond should not have removed your comment. The only reason why comments should ever be removed is if they're disruptive.

Okay, cool. Thanks. Should I post a complaint against
Husond or something? Or has everything been solved now?
