shoeofdeath ( talk · contribs) - Well, I suppose it is time to give this a go. I've been around now for two years now, but have been editing most seriously and consistently for about the past 6 months. I am and always have been an exopedian, which basically means I limit myself to improving/protecting articles and generally avoid other areas, RfA being one of them. I believe, however, that with sysop tools I could contribute more effectively to the encyclopedia than is possible without them, so I am here. I tried this last September but withdrew the nom a day later. Most concerns were over a low wiki-space edit count, so in response I started to participate in AfDs, maintaining some level of activity in that area for a few months. I've shifted back away from this recently and still much prefer editing articles, though I'd no longer considered myself "inexperienced". Anyway, I've been pretty distracted by real world stuff lately and realized that now would probably be a good time to try this (since I'm too busy to be checking here every 5 minutes ; - )). So, apologies in advanced for any delayed responses and thanks in advanced for all comments. shoeofdeath 23:37, 28 February 2008 (UTC) reply
