 Congratulations 

Well I suppose I have to confess I was wrong. Your pointless, pedantic and punitive block did more than just piss me off after all. It meant there were several vandal edits to pages on my watchlist that I couldn't revert, including some that stuck around for several hours, so you managed to piss me off and damage the project too. Please accept my hearty congratulations.

You made a block made without regard for timing, circumstance, or anything except a blind, jobsworth-like adherence to the letter of the rules.

The sarcastic applause you can hear in the background is coming from the ever-growing number of people who think WP administrators are largely a joke, and whom you have just helped prove correct. It's admins like you that give the whole WP admin team a bad name.  •T•C•E• "
