Some of you will have now solved the puzzle. If not, I can tell you that my cyberfriends Bodleyman, Felsommerfeld, and Tokomak1689 no longer exist. Hope you enjoyed the game and enjoyed meeting all my characters. Felsommerfeld the extrovert right-wing bully who upholds the standards of academia; Bodleyman the quiet, unassuming diplomat and a closet Baconian; and more recently Tokomak1689 who was Felsommerfeld's buddy. Didn't you ever wonder why they all turned up at the same time when the Baconian page was under threat?! They all had the same agenda, to pressurize the invaders! I enjoyed seeing you all quote rules at each other when in reality it's complete anarchy and anyone who knows a few rules, stays calm and persists with their desire for long enough gets their way. The administrators are ineffectual and the idea of a ban is laughable because all that's needed is a new identity and an internet cafe! Hope there's no hard feelings. If so, sir, let me buy you a beer! PuzzleMaster has now left Wikipedia.

It's true that if you consistently use different persona for different opinons and post from cyber caffs in London you are unlikely to be 'caught'. Congratulations. I used to write letters to newspapers under different names expressing conflicting opinions. It's not very difficult. It's not important to Wikipedia if people play such games, as long as the consensus process works. However, Felsommerfeld always seemed rather an unlikely character, especially his fantasy that people who believe that Earls or Barons - rather than any ordinary bloke from the provinces - must be the authors of Great literature are left wing. Only someone living a Nietzschean fantasy about himself is likely to imagine such a persona. Paul B (talk) 11:54, 31 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop your disruptive editing. If your vandalism continues, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Thedarxide (talk) 12:04, 31 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]


This is your only warning.
The next time you make a personal attack, you will be blocked for disruption. Comment on content, not on other contributors or people. Thedarxide (talk) 13:43, 31 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

your request on my talk page

[edit]

I note your request, which I left available for all to see. I feel that it would at present be premature to make any kind of offer to you, given that your last known sock was blocked only three days ago. I will, however, consult with a few other long-term admins and get a consensus view.

I feel it is absolutely certain that any unblock or unban would include, as a non-negotiable condition, a total and permanent topic ban on any editing on or around the Bacon-Shakespeare area. On that basis, do you still wish me to consult? --Anthony Bradbury"talk" 11:29, 26 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

File source problem with File:Baconpoet.gif

[edit]

Thank you for uploading File:Baconpoet.gif. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.

If the necessary information is not added within the next seven days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
