== I take it as a source of pride == 

 when you are your friends delete my comments from your talkspace. You have no problems keeping up your various warnings/blockages, but when you get a "liberal dose" of the truth your automatic reaction is to make sure nobody else can see it - heaven forbid a jolt of integrity stay on your talk page - the guilt from having to look at it again might tilt you into some much needed self-examination. Cheers.
