message: Just as a formality, I think Crossmr needs to sign under the "Users certifying the basis for this dispute". Just bringing it to your attention as any RFC does need 2 signatories. Sasquatch  t|c 18:33, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Done, unfortunately one of the users which was involved with him a lot in the past, is no longer active (RadioKirk). But there is no shortage of users who've tried to fix the behaviour.--Crossmr 18:42, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

Kiand is someone who likes to throw his weight around despite the fact he is not an admin. He wont break the rules but he'll bend them almost to the breaking point. Kiand likes sticking his nose where it doesn't belong: SkyOS then complains to admins when people tell him he's wrong.
Kiand is an example of all that is bad about Wikipedia: The childish, petty bickering, the arrogance, the stupidity, that causes good people to leave and places like Wikitruth to spring up. Someone has to stop Kiand and his ilk. I urge a ban on Kiand.

replies: text: I'd have to agree, the issue here is Mark Kim's behaviour with many many editors and many articles.--Crossmr 14:55, 23 June 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: A305w's comment

message: Mark seems to disregard anything the community says. With all due respect, Mark is nothing more than a zealot; everything he says and does is right and nobody should dare contest them. An RfC is a tool for community feedback; it's therefor useless if one of the parties has no regard to that. The only way out of this with that mind is arbitration. — Selmo (talk) 03:19, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Arbitration? 

message: Following an impending arbitration case set up by Selmo, Mark Kim has opted to leave the project (). That's really too bad, because he did good editing work, as long as it didn't require him to communicate with other users. Since Wikipedia is a collaborative project, maybe it's for the best.--Atlan (talk) 15:02, 26 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Alright... well I guess we can close this RFC for now then... Sasquatch  t|c 02:40, 27 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Actually "left" is an incorrect statement. He's "closed" his account, and is simply editing as the IP associated with it, so he's certainly not stopped editing wikipedia.--Crossmr 04:06, 27 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: If that is the case, then you'll simply need to identify the IP socks, file a checkuser request, and reopen this RfC if it becomes necessary. Until then, the issue seems to be moot. —ptk✰fgs 00:45, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: CU wouldn't take it, it would be marked "obvious". For something as obvious as using identical language in edit summaries, editing same language, editing users talk page, they wouldn't bother, I've tried to file those in the past.--Crossmr 02:21, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Personally I'm not convinced, actually, and I think it's another user. But seriously, let's just let this one burn out for now, ok? —ptk✰fgs 06:24, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: It looks blatently obvious to me. The IP edits the same articles, and removed the rfc notice from Mark Kim's userpage.When I warned the IP not to do that, he switches to a different IP and removes my warning then goes on to edit a page that Mark Kim had edited in the past.Highly unlikely that a different user would do that.

thread_title:  Mark Kim has stated he has left 

message: Sorry but after 2 years, I'm voluntarily adios.  The fact that you got involved in a conspiracy to place me under arbitration is the last straw.  Therefore go to another editor if you want various articles to be edited.  I don't have any time to waste with Wikipedia anymore.  I leave Wikipedia with this one warning: there will be even more fragile editors like myself and soon there will be opposition to Wikipedia's oppresive rules that y'all will have to think things.  I don't care about those articles anymore and nobody cared about my edits anyway.  Sorry, but I'm voluntarily finished here. — Mark Kim (U * T/R * CTD) 12:56, 27 June 2007 (UTC)
