I am fine with the banning of both me and user Dante until this is sorted, as i have mentioned to Dante to pool our knowledge. I am however offended by the accusation of using Sock Puppets as i have no connection to these users other than user Porkchop who i have worked with on an international basis concerning various projects and have contact with through the program Soulseek. I resent the accusation of using Sock Puppets in all forms and ask for this accusation to be striken. (Also posted this on A Man In Blacks board out of confusion of which to post this on (apologising for any incovnience my confusion causes)) ~~[[Leyasu|Leyasu]] |

Thanks for the Welcome
Hello, just popped in to thank you for your kind welcome you left on my Talk page. I will do my best on here to add and contribute as much as I can in regards to helping Wikipedia expand and become more efficient. Thank you also for the helpful information, it is definitely appreciated! Piecraft 03:12, 22 August 2005 (UTC)
College rules
You had earlier asked about how rules are handled at Bob Jones University. Since then the topic has come up again, in case you're interested, at Talk:Bob Jones University. -Willmcw 01:27, August 25, 2005 (UTC)
Many thanks
Judging my this talk page, you're pretty active at RFA... so I'll add my voice and give another thanks for your vote of support regarding my request for adminship. Having someone assume I'm already an admin is quite flattering. :p Coffee 06:47, 25 August 2005 (UTC)
Thanks for your support
Hi, just a quick note to thank you for your support on my RfA. Now that I am an administrator I will do my best to please the community’s expectations. Best regards, Sam Hocevar 17:27, 3 September 2005 (UTC)
Thanks for the comments. I've responded in the page. Bunchofgrapes 20:25, 9 September 2005 (UTC)
My RFA
Thank you very kindly for your support for my nomination. I promise your trust will not be misplaced; I may occasionally be slightly buzzed with power, but never drunk. ;) · Katefan0(scribble) 21:58, September 12, 2005 (UTC)

Re: Asian fetish POV problems
I haven't gotten involved in any request for comment issues in the past, so I'm not sure if the article warrants it or not. It's definitely POV in multiple sections, however. If that's enough for an rfc, then so be it.--Wasabe3543 19:27, 18 September 2005 (UTC) Edit: The more I see how divisive this issue seems to be (especially after the last round of comments), yeah, I think a request for comment is in order--Wasabe3543 17:29, 20 September 2005 (UTC)
- I think the article is definitely encyclopedic-- and judging from the temperament of other editors on the topic, there is a desperate need to have it written well and objectively. Unfortunately, I don't think that is going to happen without some sort of intervention from wikipedia administration. --Howrealisreal 16:50, 28 September 2005 (UTC)
WP:MIND 06:21, 21 September 2005 (UTC)
Hello, Idont Havaname! This message is to inform you that round three of Wikipedia Mind Benders will open on Wednesday, September 21, at approximately 22:00 UTC. While the opening time may vary by two or three hours, the round will open no earlier than 22:00 UTC. In addition, there are several rule changes, which will be detailed when the round opens. Everyone who answers a question correctly will receive points, but speed does give some extra points! Round three offers 11 new exciting and mind-bogglind questions, written by Deryck C.. These promise to be lots of fun! We sincerely hope you join us.
Also, congratulations to ROYGBIV for winning round two; it was an extremely close game, with the runner-up, Spondoolicks, only two points behind. Let's keep round three competitive! Flcelloguy | A note? | Desk 22:31, 19 September 2005 (UTC)

My RfA
Thanks for your support in my RfA. I'm glad you felt adminship was long overdue (I was sort of starting to feel that way myself). Now that it's been remedied I'll do my best. -R. fiend 19:54, 22 September 2005 (UTC)
Just wanted to let you know...
Turns out there is a Daniel Hoyt article, except it's under a different name: Dan Hoyt. I'm going to yank out that bit in the Asian fetish article (yes it came back), since we still don't have proof if he's specifically targetting Asian women. --Bash 01:20, 10 October 2005 (UTC)
- Heh, so I guess you'll put it up for Afd then? ;) --Bash 03:53, 10 October 2005 (UTC)
The article is definetly hard to turn into an NPOV star. To me, it gets way into it, emphasizing points that would be pretty obscure to me. Some lines I just find myself saying out loud, What?: Ironically, white men who exclusively date Asian women are often tagged with the same stereotypical qualities. They are often characterized as nerds and geeks, physically weaker and less socially capable than other white men, who “settle” for Asian women because White women reject them. --Bash 04:24, 10 October 2005 (UTC)
- Maybe because I live in Toronto, but I've actually never encountered anyone who would stereotype white men who like Asian women as somehow "weaker" or "inferior". To me, that is a brand new concept. --Bash 05:21, 10 October 2005 (UTC)
I was thinking that perhaps the article could benefit from being listed at Wikipedia:Article Improvement Drive. At the very least it might increase the article's visibility and encourage different viewpoints to edit and contribute. What do you think? --Howrealisreal 18:01, 10 October 2005 (UTC)
- Okay I posted it up here. You should get some people to vote for it if you can. As for my talk page, I keep all my previous discussions archived at User talk:Howrealisreal/Archive. Admittedly, some times I get bored and I over-archive content (like our previous discussion on the article) too quickly. --Howrealisreal 04:26, 11 October 2005 (UTC)
- You are right, I should be more aware "Not to feed the trolls". In efforts to try to take everyone's POV seriously, inevitably it will sometimes backfire in my face. Anyway, thanks for getting back to me. --Howrealisreal 13:08, 12 October 2005 (UTC)
Thanks!
My RfA succeeded, and I appreciate that you supported it. *hugs* Denelson83 22:09, 14 October 2005 (UTC)
Maryville Middle School
Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Maryville Middle School appears in danger of being trumped by a conspicuous and concerted effort on the part of deletionists. Please review the nomination and vote at your convenience.--Nicodemus75 05:35, 24 October 2005 (UTC)
Underoath
Yeah, that's fine; I didn't bother checking the Converge link to find out who it was, so your version is more helpful anyways. Kertrats | Talk 13:25, 24 October 2005 (UTC)
Your concern
Hello Idont havename (also a nice name by the way) ;). I know you voted in opposition, but I just thought I'd bring to your attention, that my deletion of an unsigned Afd was brought to my attention by user:Tony Sidaway and I realized that this was a mistake. But of course even I make mistakes. :) I would just like you to know that I searched for the user in the edit summary for about 15 minutes before removing that unsigned vote. But thank you for voting. --a.n.o.n.y.m t 17:54, 24 October 2005 (UTC)
TINSC
There isn't a school cabal (really), but if there were, it'd be some users trying to work to replace the shrillness in school AFDs with dialogue, and assert that civility is more important than partisanship. If it existed (and it doesn't, really), it'd be dedicated to getting people to stop sniping and start talking.
There's no school cabal, really, but would you be interested in being a member if there were? - A Man In Black (conspire | past ops) 21:36, 26 October 2005 (UTC)
Re: Paul Hospenthal
That's alright, I'll leave it as you did. It wasn't an attack but it was a little ironic POV. I was thinking of starting a category of people who are only known for dating or being married to famous people. That, or people who through no achievement of their own happen to have become really, really lucky. Then I kicked myself and said it's time to put down the wikipedia already... :) ~ Reaverdrop 06:41, 27 October 2005 (UTC)
- Re. your response: thanks for the sage counsel. I'm still getting the hang of the protocols and consensus boards around here. And the consensus you described sounds quite sound - I'll leave it be. ~ Reaverdrop 18:33, 27 October 2005 (UTC)
RE: Shaquille O'Neal

re: Gothic metal
Personally, I don't think caving to User:Leyasu's edits will solve this. They seem to read much more as dictated personal opinion (and even somewhat rant-like) than something straight-forward and informative, per the design and format of Wikipedia. Thus, I'm going to revert it back to the original version, with a polite request that User:Leyasu participate in the discussion and go into detail as to why he/she is is making these changes. --Danteferno 02:03, 4 November 2005 (UTC)
Idont i am not making personal attacks and i apologise if it comes across that way. I have made no intention of making personal attacks, and also people have freely been commenting that Dante's posts are wrong. I have also explained to Dante several times why the changes are there and he has done nothing but spite and antagonise with poor argument except from, 'Im right coz i say so'. This isnt a personal attack from me, im just trying to clear up common misonception. (Edit): Idont, i will freely admit to having problems with spelling. I also have no spellcheck based word programs on my computer. If you want to spellcheck it, i would be more then gratified. Also, please go to the discussion board on Gothic Metal and note the comments against Dante's version. ~~Leyasu
In response to your last post Idont. I do concede to being angry at this point with Dante, and yes my statement was personal. I apologise to both yourself and Dante for that. I have also just corrected most of the spellings and mistakes in it, and im working on toning it to be more accesable for some readers. Again, i apologise for any offence i have caused, and will try to keep my language to a form that suits you best. ~~Leyasu
