 ""Certaion Other Editors"" 

 MB,
 I noted your question on SqueakBox's page and figured that I was ""certain other editors"". I was only ""eager"" to vote opposite because, as I would support the RFA, it seemed as though SqueakBox's jumping-the-gun needed some balance. It might have been a little POINT-y, literally copying the words and formatting and all, but that was the point of the point. How could it ""look"" like it was live? I went to the main RfA page and his was not listed. I agree with the others that Squeak had to be watching or stalking for this so as to attack it at its earliest possibility. His ""oppose"" was two minutes - TWO MINUTES - after the ""I accept"" was put on the page, and as has been point out, long before it was officially live.
 Anyway, I have seen him in discussions and don't always agree with him, but I support the RfA. As for off-wiki happenings, that's part of the problem with having them... it strengthens the ""secret society"" feeling that a lot of people seem to have (from the oft-made references to ""The Cabal"" - something I have never made reference to).
 FWIW, I have nothing against you. I have worked hard in the past to work with SqueakBox as well, even making consessions to try and smooth things over. For my trouble, I have been blocked for making general statements while enduring pointedly direct, targeted personal attacks. Anyway, . I'm working on being less WikiDragon-ish and to stay out of WikiPolitics (at least not be involved as much as I have - less WikiStress).
 I know that doesn't help understand why SB voted oppose, but now you understand why I voted in support when I did... I support the RfA, though, because I have confidence in Martijn and his ability. For the record.  •   •  • 03:07 (UTC)  27 Mar '08 -)"
