Revision as of 02:01, 6 July 2006
Welcome to my discussion page. Please do not hesitate to leave me a message. I will respond to you as soon as I can.
Please note that I do not usually respond on this page - if you leave me a message, I will most likely reply on your user talk page, so that you will be notified when you receive my message.
User:Ackoz blocked
I have blocked User:Ackoz for 3 days for personal attacks and offensive behaviour (mocking users' IQs) on Misplaced Pages talk:Requests for adminship/Trampikey, and for disruptive behaviour in starting an RfC on a completely unrelated administrator whose only involvement was to place warnings for the above behaviour on his/her user page (which this user promptly removed). I have advised this user of ways he can seek to have this block overturned, and if another administrator feels that this block should be overturned, I will respect that. - Mark 09:44, 1 July 2006 (UTC)

Hey Mark, this is me, Ackoz, although I decided not to contribute anymore, I just came to check how the Caron dispute is going and to leave you this note. However, I dont think I need the nick anymore. I just wanted to quote to you that that the NPA policy states, that:
In extreme cases, an attacker may be blocked under the "disruption" clause of the blocking policy, though the practice is almost always controversial. Personal attacks should be reported at WP:PAIN.
You blocked me per NPA, which I might have violated once (one sentence) and only if someone was interpreting my statements by your common sense, anyway no extreme case happened, and for my statements that I do not want to comply with WP policies (such statement being no criteria for blocking someone) and for erasing a warning from my talkpage, that was actually finally removed by the editor who placed some of it there, (i.e. you blocked me for removing something that was removed by someone else), after I asked him to review my contributions. Moreover, George's comments about sending me to a corner, calling me peevish, "trying to be clever" (in your common sense interpretation, that would mean he had been calling me stupid) etc made me feel kinda sad. I really tried to contribute to wikipedia, I have created Abdominal aortic aneurysm, Transfusion-associated graft versus host disease, Antyllus and some other articles in the last month because I had the time finally.

- Hello, Ackoz. I'll reply here since you do not want your user talk page to be recreated. My block of you was very much in the vein of the "time-out corner", as Geogre described it. I wanted you to take some time to calm down and reassess the situation, and realise that you were perhaps taking everything too personally: a "cooling-off period", sort of. Had I suspected that you would have become so offended and leave the project entirely, it would certainly not have been the strategy I would have taken. I recognise good article contributors when I see them, and I am sad to see you leave the project.
- As for your assessment of my admin actions, obviously you are entitled to your opinion, and you are also entitled to take this to the ArbCom. I don't presume to purport that I am above oversight. In fact, I think it would be very healthy to have someone else scrutinise my actions as an administrator. I try to be fair with my admin actions. I also only use them very sparingly, when I think such a use is warranted.
- Anyway, once again, I'm sorry you have been offended by my intervention in this matter. - Mark 02:01, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
