1000 EDITS!!!!
Today is my 1000th edit!!! 6-26-13  Boomer8 (talk) 02:11, June 27, 2013 (UTC)

Blocked for a day
Hideous, unbelievable conduct on the Requests for Promotion board. Requesting that an administrator be demoted for inactivity may be valid, but posting a paragraph-long screed ascribing all sorts of malicious motives to him is completely unacceptable, especially for a patroller who should know better.

 * While you're blocked, read up on GTA Wiki: Assume Good Faith and GTA Wiki: Civility. Jeff (talk|stalk) 05:49, June 27, 2013 (UTC)


 * You're a good editor, do not let me take your editing privileges away because of stupidity in future. Messi1983 (talk) 09:39, June 27, 2013 (UTC)


 * First of all, I believe this block is complete bullshit. I was just giving my own opinion on that demotion request. Winter Moon is inactive!!! And is just waiting for GTA V like he has for months. If you condemn that then I'll just do a couple edits a month to keep my staff position untill GTA V comes out. In that demotion request everything I said is fact - he's inactive, he isn't qualified to be an admin, he's just keeping an admin position from well deserving patrollers, ect. I am allowed to give my own personal opinion and for you to block me is unacceptable and very unfair. And I was assuming good faith. Review what constitutes good faith. I was not malicious, I did my best to get him demoted, and I did it for the best of the community and for others to apply for admin rights, and I am friendly, honest, and care for the wiki. By the way, I would appreciate it if you could put my vote back up for Winter Moon's demotion.  Boomer8 (talk) 05:40, June 28, 2013 (UTC)


 * Hmmmm... Boomer you should calm down. You could do that request in an Encyclopedic mannor, rather than personal attacks. And you could vote by yourself. Dodo8 Talk


 * If you condemn that then I'll just do a couple edits a month to keep my staff position untill GTA V comes out. - Go ahead. Messi1983 (talk) 11:37, June 28, 2013 (UTC)


 * Boomer you're working yourself towards a demotion.
 * "He plays the system beautifully" is a personal attack
 * "Does a few edits a month...just to keep his staff position" is assuming bad faith.
 * "Just selfishly holding an admin position from a patroller who is active" is a personal attack. Also, so I may be absolutely clear, no patroller is entitled to an admin position, you need to get that line of thought out of your head and the sooner the better.
 * "And I bet he won't even oppose his own demotion because he is so inactive" is a classic example of incivility that isn't a personal attack - it's just a completely unwarranted potshot.
 * Your factually incorrect opinion that your block was "bullshit" demonstrates that perhaps you do not have the maturity to serve as a patroller let alone an administrator. I'm not filing for your demotion at this time, but if you'd made that post before you got promoted, I assure you that you would not have passed. Jeff (talk|stalk) 16:49, June 28, 2013 (UTC)


 * "He plays the system beautifully" is an opinion. "Does a few edits a month...just to keep his staff position" is a fact. "Just selfishly holding an admin position from a patroller who is active" is an opinion as well. "And I bet he won't even oppose his own demotion because he is so inactive" is a fact, because he didn't oppose his own demotion. And I did not say a patroller is entitled to an admin position. I believe a patroller is entitled to a fair request, and have a chance of becoming an admin, rather than Winter Moon who I believe isn't quallified anymore to hold an admin position. I noticed that you took down my "redone" demotion request because you didn't like the alternative solution and thought that everyone wasn't "competent" enough to handle it. That is completely communistic and you just didn't like the way the votes were swaying. The truth is that everybody wants Winter Moon gone and you are unfairly not allowing it. Please put the demotion request back up and let the community vote, and not just you make the decision of who stays and who goes. Boomer8 (talk) 17:33, June 28, 2013 (UTC)
