Statement of the dispute

Ryulong has failed to abide by policies WP:BLOCK, WP:ROLLBACK, and WP:ADMIN.

Desired outcome

Ryulong needs to stop using the tools in situations which he is involved, and needs to use rollback only for cases of vandalism.

Description

Ryulong has failed to address the many concerns of the community in regards to the use of his administrative tools. In opening this RfC, it is hoped that Ryulong can correct these issues.

Powers misused

• Blocking (log):

1. A one month blocked placed upon a non-static IP with no history of prior blocks
2. A one month block placed upon a inactive (at the time of the block) IP
3. A blocked placed upon a editor whom Ryulong was in a dispute with (Please see this thread)
4. An IP blocked for one month for failing to sign their posts
5. Block placed upon a IP whom Ryulong was involved in edit with

Applicable policies

• Blocking policy

1. Ryulong has misused the blocking ability by blocking editors whom he has been in disputes with, and IP address for overly long periods of time.

• Rollback policy

1. Ryulong has misused rollback and commonly uses it to revert edits that he disagrees with, basically using rollback in a content dispute.
2. When confronted about such policy violations ([11], [12], [13], [14], [15]) he often removes, rollsback or removes the thread with uncivil edit summaries.

Response

This is a summary written by the sysop whose actions are disputed, or by other users who think that the dispute is unjustified and that the sysop's actions did not violate policy. Users who edit or endorse this summary should not edit the other summaries.

The various issues here have been covered in the ANI thread that Tiptoety links to in one of the diffs. Much of the rest of this is just a series of single reverts that are questionable and do not encompass the entirety of my uses of rollback or the undo button (without putting an edit summary in).

I do not like Mythdon. My patience with him has been strained since he began editing and conversing with me. The volume of his requests to me and his activities on Wikipedia have made me lose any patience I have had with him and my tone to him (or lack of response to him) is indicative of that. There is nothing that any RFC will do for me to stop acting a certain way to another user.

I really see no use to this RFC, other than it being used in some future RFAR should I piss someone off, again, as I did Tiptoety this afternoon in an off-Wikipedia discussion medium.
