Just wanted to add my sympathies here as well I held off commenting on your RFA for a while because I assumed from the quantity of opposes you were a poor candidate once I actually read it I was pretty shocked by how weak most of the oppose rationales are It seems particularly grating that if you d just had a different username you might have passed Still I hope you re not too disheartened you should take solace in the high level of support and the weakness of the opposes Judging from the results I think if you simply change your name stupid I know but it seems to be a stumbling block and spend a few more months making productive edits you d have a good chance of passing next time Good luck
