How to respond to personal attacks

You need to spend less time on the internet.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.54.15.129 (talk • contribs)

I appreciated your concern with my personal life and spending too much time on Wikipedia. Internet addiction is a real disorder. However, I do not suffer from it (maybe I am in denial). Well, take it easy and thanks again for your concern. Chris Kreider 01:35, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

Chris chris chrisy chris chris. You clearly do have an internet problem. Authoring an article on the USS Hunchback is one of the clearest signs. I suggest you stop, log off, unplug the computer, maybe even throw it away, and try to strike up a conversation with the nearest girl. It will be difficult at first, human contact, but please, just try. It is so much better than reading about girls on wikipedia. AND NO ONLINE DATING THAT WOULD ONLY DRAG YOU DEEPER INTO THIS HOLE.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.54.15.129 (talk • contribs)

I was first tempted to remove this as a personal attack. But, I really dont care and think it is kind of funny so, this is why it stays

On a random note, here is my response. "As i stated before, thank you for your concern with my personal life, most recently with my lack of human contact and needing to talk to a girl. I generally dont like to throw this information around but, to apease your concern, I do have a girlfriend. (Yes, she is real but you will have to take my word for it). Articles like the USS Hunchback are something to do that is not work related or even people related (some people, including myself, may have Introverted tendancies. In all, i appreciated your concern. Perhaps you might spend less time making personal attacks and more time socializing or even enhancing wikipedia!. If you need any help with this, please let me know. Thanks, Chris Kreider 02:06, 14 November 2006 (UTC)"

Hahaha, I love trolls. Of course, they never realize how much time they're wasting... -- feb^talk 16:50, 7 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Chris

Thank you,
my dear Chris!

Dear Chris, thanks so much for the beautiful gift, which come me as a beautiful and completely unexpected surprise :) Not to mention the following vandalism on my user and talk pages that ensued, which you vaporized in seconds! This is a great excuse to finally meet say hi to you, after seeing so much of you around. I'll try to return the favor, so I'll keep an eye (this one) (-)(.) on your userpage in case the need arises ;) Meanwhile, here's a token of my gratitude for protecting my page - thank you!
Btw, I noticed the discussion surrounding the deletion of block templates from blocked socks and vandals' pages. I wasn't aware of this new policy, so I proceeded to delete the pages of all the socks I blocked today. I personaly think this is a good idea; having dealt with the likes of Willy on Wheels, Emico, Smugface et al since late '05, it is pretty evident to me that it's the credit that the community grants them that keeps them going. I remember I once read a quote that went like "ignoring someone is the deadliest weapon". I endorse this new approach, and I thank you for bringing it to my attention.
I was having a look around your userpage, and I really like it. Perhaps, if you wish, I could blow a little magic wikifairy dust over it and make a little design for you, if you let me. Just whistle, and I'll come flying right to it ;)
Once again, thank you. It's great to meet you, Chris! ;) Love, Phaedriel - 20:43, 26 April 2007 (UTC) [reply]

Hi Phaedriel! It's not really policy or anything, but it sure is effective! :) BTW - I still owe you an email - haven't forgotten - Alison ☺ 20:46, 26 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Allie! :) Yes, after further research I've seen it's an essay atm, but I'd love to see it become policy eventually, sooner than later if at all possible. I'd hate to see userboxes saying "this user was impersonated by Mr. Oompapa", like the ones they once made for old WoW... remember? And, ehhmmm... sorry we hijacked your talk page, Chris! Can you forgive us? ;) Phaedriel - 21:19, 26 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

First off, I try not to have ownership issues with my page so you are welcome to hijack it any time you like. second off, if you would like to blow some magic wikifairy dust over my userpage and make a design for me, i would be much obliged! ALso, thank you for the sunflower, it was much appreciated. -- Chrislk02 (Chris Kreider) 01:07, 27 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Reply

Maybe if she got over her god complex, she might be a worthwhile person to have a conversation with. I've got this completely amusing image in my head of her sitting at a computer desk in a Roman temple, dressed in holy garb as she clacks away at the keyboard. I mean, really, my presence defiles her user page? I'm actually sort of proud of that, come to think of it.

I probably wouldn't have bothered to reply but for that back-handed legal threat she made. Cheers, Lankybugger ○ Yell ○ 14:06, 27 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The thing about it is, I can actually respect the concept she's trying to forward. I would have loved to be able to call on the Devil May Cry task force to comment on my RFA, but per the current canvassing rules I was unable to do so. I love the idea of asking people who've interacted with the user to comment, especially since it would allow us to better judge the user's merits. However I don't think it's going to happen, not the way Kelly is doing it. I'd probably support any proposals she made on the subject, argument or no argument. It wouldn't factor into my assessment of what the policy could do to help the project. Cheers, Lankybugger ○ Yell ○ 14:33, 27 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent edits over at User talk:Kelly Martin

Just a quick note, as you and Lankybugger seem to share the same interests with this subject, I consider it wildly inappropriate for you to be leaving messages bemoaning a lack of civility on Kelly's talk page and messages supporting Lankybugger over at Lankybugger's talk page. It's important for an administrator to be seen to be impartial as well as being impartial, and at the moment, your edits to both sets of talkpages are neither. -- Nick^t 14:57, 27 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the feedback. I kindly request then that another adminstrator or other party review Kelly Martins lack of civility. Telling them that "there likes" are not wanted around here is complety uncivil. My warning was in response to her innapropriate response to lankybugger and I feel as an appropraite action as an administrator. Had any other editor left that message, they would have recieved a warning. Please not, I went above and beyond to make sure that I stated in a civil and nice way, while also gettign the message across. However, per your advice, i will refrain from warning Kelly Martin and ask another uninvolved administrator to review and make a decision. -- Chrislk02 (Chris Kreider) 15:00, 27 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Don't bother leaving templated warnings. Kelly Martin knows what she's doing; she's been at it for a good long time. She goes out of her way to be very rude- just ignore it and maybe she'll go away. There's nothing much to be done about this. Friday (talk) 15:19, 27 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

First off, i did not use a templtaed warning, however a carefully constructed custom statement. What are the point of policies about being civil and not making pesronal attacks when it is just ignored when made by the "right" person? This is what frustrates me the most. -- Chrislk02 (Chris Kreider) 16:17, 27 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Block her for disruption by gaming the system. Bmg916^Speak_Sign 16:25, 27 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I have an apparent WP:COI in this matter due to my previous run ins with her. If she is going to be blocked, it will be from an uninvolved administrator. -- Chrislk02 (Chris Kreider) 16:26, 27 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It's times like these where I wish I was an admin. Where I sit idly by watching a situation develop as a neutral third party, and then when it comes time where I would be able to take some form of action, I can't. oh well, someday perhaps, if I stick around long enough to be nominated, or if I decide to accept a nomination. And then of course, it would still have to pass. Bmg916^Speak_Sign 16:28, 27 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Its ok, at this point I wish I was not involved. I have never ever been wiki stressed. When I see an editor call people varmit, trolls in bad faith and telling that there "pressence" is not wanted around here, and everybody turns the other cheek because of who it is, it makes my blood boil. I am seriously this close to taking an extended wiki break because i dont appreciate being called a troll, a varmint or an emily post wannabee. -- Chrislk02 (Chris Kreider) 16:33, 27 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Walk away people, walk away. If you're looking for drama, you'll find enough to justify being a drama queen. If you're not, walk away. Sticks and stones.--Doc^g 17:32, 27 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Chris, please come back!

Chris, please don't do this...you are an excellent admin! And, even though editors like myself can have conflicts, you shouldn't go! Real96 16:51, 27 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Chris, I'm reluctant to reply, as this might be a "May Fools Day" joke. :) - BillCJ 17:02, 27 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

tsk tsk ..We lose a lot of Good Editors and Admins this way...--Cometstyles 17:06, 27 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
