Name change

My original username, Ovadyah, which I have edited with since July 2005, was apparently too ethnic for some editors, leading to inappropriate talk page speculation about my religious beliefs. Therefore, I have changed my username to the more Wiki-appropriate name of Ignocrates. Ignocrates (talk) 01:16, 22 September 2011 (UTC)

I liked your old name. Where do we stand with the Ebionites? If you have the time, please critically evaluate the sources on my user page. - Ret.Prof (talk) 11:01, 23 September 2011 (UTC)

It's great to see you back. I thought you had retired from Wikipedia. Sorry, but I'm not the right person to ask about the Ebionites article. I have abandoned that article permanently to the idiots and trolls that dominate this encyclopedia. Best. Ignocrates (talk) 15:11, 23 September 2011 (UTC)

That is a shame. -- cheers, Michael C. Price ^talk 16:32, 23 September 2011 (UTC)

As part of the "new me", I'm going to be a lot harder on uninformed, yet relentless, editors, who confidently edit on subjects they know nothing about. The problem is not my lack of good faith; it is their lack of competence. And competence is required on Wikipedia if we are going to prevent this encyclopedia from regressing to the mean or worse.

Not Retired

I'm back after an extended break. I decided against permanent retirement after reading this diff, which has John Carter bragging to another editor about what he did to me. The content is similar to one of the stalking emails he sent me previously. Ignocrates (talk) 22:07, 28 November 2012 (UTC)

Feel free to forward the e-mails to the arbitrators. I of course have no reservations regarding forwarding your own e-mail as well, which I believe they would find particularly interesting. And I am rather amused that you have been apparently been monitoring my edits for all this time as well, which calls into serious question your retirement, particularly as your return from retirement comes so quickly after the comment I made. Your apparent rush to judgment regarding exactly who I was referring to, particularly considering I offered no names, and the frankly incredible speed with which you intended your so-called retirement thereafter, are I believe extremely interesting.
