I'm sometimes online sporadically, although typically at least once a day unless it's around the weekend. I'll usually respond pretty quickly to any questions, but real life takes priority, so I may not always be the quickest to respond. Thanks for your patience if I'm offline for a bit.


Happy First Edit Day![edit]

Hey, KoA. I'd like to wish you a wonderful First Edit Day on behalf of the Wikipedia Birthday Committee!
Have a great day!

June 2024[edit]

Information icon Please be careful about what you say to people. Some remarks, such as your addition to User talk:Robert McClenon can easily be misinterpreted, or viewed as harassment. Wikipedia is a supportive environment, where contributors should feel comfortable and safe while editing. Who do you think you are to monitor and stalk me? This is not the first time. Mind your business, otherwise there will be actions you don't want. EpicAdventurer (talk) 23:30, 14 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

EpicAdventurer, I've been trying to help you so that you don't get blocked for the battleground behavior and sniping at editors. That's because I do think you're in a position where you can course correct and focus on editing articles instead. I noticed that when I first posted on your talk page when you were new.[1] When I looked at the AfD (which I did not participate in), it's very clear you're having continuing issues with comments like This is manipulation on your part., Are you speaking honestly?, How do you rate? Do you understand what you are doing?, or I'm fed up with this "encyclopedia". It has turned into a authoritarian community not a cooperative one. often in response to those trying to work with you.
Meanwhile, many editors there are giving you good advice on what would be needed for an article while being very tolerant of your sniping. Remember that when I was talking to Robert McClenon, I was saying they were being very even-handed. No one is voting to delete that article you made, they're mostly just saying it's not ready yet, but could be someday, hence draftify. That's not a bad outcome at all and definitely doesn't warrant the responses you've been giving.
The whole point I've been getting at with you in past discussions is that Wikipedia is not a WP:BATTLEGROUND. Simply just knock off the personal attacks and you'll be fine as you learn the ropes and discuss things civilly on talk pages. Lashing out at editors like you've been doing, especially when experienced ones give you basic advice about policy that you dismiss as nonsense,[2] does not help anyone. I'm taking time here hoping you recognize the problem now so you can steer away from it. KoA (talk) 03:44, 15 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
