The Wordsmith, I'm sure that you mean well when you suggest that mediation should be resumed, but I want you to know that there's no way I'm having anything to do with it. The entire exercise struck me as something that could and should have been conducted on talk:conversion therapy, if there were anything worth discussing. Hyper3 has behaved in a rude, boorish, and increasingly childish way, and I think it's pretty clear that he was discussing things in bad faith (look at the last couple of comments he made on the mediation page, and you'll see what I mean). I've got limited patience for people who endlessly announce that they are right and who refuse to give (or respond to) real arguments.

Mediation
The Wordsmith, I'm sure that you mean well when you suggest that mediation should be resumed, but I want you to know that there's no way I'm having anything to do with it. The entire exercise struck me as something that could and should have been conducted on talk:conversion therapy, if there were anything worth discussing. Hyper3 has behaved in a rude, boorish, and increasingly childish way, and I think it's pretty clear that he was discussing things in bad faith (look at the last couple of comments he made on the mediation page, and you'll see what I mean). I've got limited patience for people who endlessly announce that they are right and who refuse to give (or respond to) real arguments. BG talk 03:09, 12 October 2009 (UTC)
