Ok, I was echo'ed. I think it doesn't work if you don't sign at the same time. Test that. . Buster Seven Talk 12:51, 2 April 2015 (UTC)
Above you ask for me to comment at the evidence page. I'm not sure why I would do that. . Buster Seven Talk 12:54, 2 April 2015 (UTC)

Info[edit]

I don't know if he stalks follows you. I only know that he stalks follows me. My memory is not the greatest but since Sarah Palin in 2009, I have never edited an article that Collect had anything to do with or was anywhere in the general vicinity of. In subsequent years , if Collect entered a conversation, anywhere, I left the conversation...and didn't look back. A couple of years ago, I asked a question at the Help Desk and within moments Collect was there with some mish mosh of an explanation (I rarely can understand him. His languaging (?) is confusing to say the least). Collect rarely, if ever, answers questions at the Help Desk. It angered me and we had a bit of a row over it. Diffs can be provided. I put myself up for admin. Collect was the very first to respond --- Oppose. It was almost like he was waiting at the voting booth so he could get the Buster7 is not worthy ball rolling...and it worked. I was not confirmed by a slim margin. My guess is he saw the prior conversations on my talk page with the two editors that nominated me. There are more examples I can find but I just wanted to assure you that Collect is a stalker. I would "ping" him but he didn't do me the courtesy of a notification when he railed about MastCell and Writegeist and Myself on his talk page yesterday. Like I said somewhere else, I'll be glad when this is over so I can go back to ignoring him. . Buster Seven Talk 15:09, 2 April 2015 (UTC)

I think 'stalk' is too strong of a word in my case, but he certainly has shown up at ANI, SPI, AE, ARCA, and EW/N to voice diametric opposition to whatever issue I had raised. Recently this has spilled into AfD and some other areas. Clearly it's done to annoy, but most of the time I just ignore it. I won't however ignore the damage that is done to the project with the blatantly obvious gaming behavior. It wastes a lot of time and very much works against the spirit of collaboration that Wikipedia was built upon.- MrX 15:43, 2 April 2015 (UTC)
Perhaps you are right. Ive changed stalk to follow. I agree that damaging the project by alienating fellow editors(however one does that) is contrary to our role as collaborators. . Buster Seven Talk 15:56, 2 April 2015 (UTC)
