just be glad you were only blocked for hours getting mad over a block just proves the block was correct in the first place terrorist good luck ceoil i don't plan to post at ani again but i just wanted to remind you how much you're admired as an editor get mad if you can't help it but don't get so mad you leave and if you can avoid getting mad and figure out how to get a productive outcome out of the conversation you're an even better editor than i thought talk my apologies ceoil i'm obviously not a perfect person very far from it i don't try and act as if i am and i do make more than my fair share of mistakes sometimes including my block of you yesterday i don't view myself as above the law around here as it seems some people think i do and i hope you don't share their sentiment though i would not blame you for that right now i cannot erase your block log but all i can do is offer my apologies for my mistake i hope that any paths we cross from here on out are more than productive and hopefully someday we can look back on this with an amusing thread on our talk pages and laugh at my mistake either way please accept my sincerest apologies and i am a man who can recognize when he is wrong and this is one of those times i wish you happy holidays and i hope to see you around the project very sincerely jmlk i have no issue with you jmlk as i said on your talk the reaction after is the issue truth and reconciliation what happened to you was wrong the wrong was later undone but it cannot be reversed you are angry and you are justified in your anger because it happened it cannot however be changed but hopefully your anger will subside cheers i hope you can take the advice from a stranger and leave your computer for a few hours go do something else for a while and ignore us silly fools on wikipedia sleep on it come back tomorrow and then we can talk about how things could be improved so things doesn't happen again right now you're angry and reacting just waiting a few hours can drastically change ones outlook i know i've been pissed plenty of times myself after all this is just a website henrik talk thanks but my whole point is that this stuff gets washed under the carpet and nobody is listening i'm not going to let this go i'm not suggesting anything getting washed under the carpet i just hope you can wait a few hours or until tomorrow before proceeding henrik talk thanks great advise tongue in cheek don't take my shallow or rather tongue in cheek comments at wp an at face value i actually spend a fair amount of time trying to calm the lynch mobs around here and my most recent effort was unsuccessful so i've been venting a bit and perhaps aping the attitude of the ban hammerers at your expense i hope you didn't take anything i wrote too seriously if you ever were the subject of an unjust block that no admin wanted to lift i'd be among those leaping to your defense talk well you did get unblocked the half serious part is there are plenty of editors less fortunate than you try to keep that in mind talk recently i haven't found myself in agreement with kendrick he is absolutely right here though you might want to take a deep breath and relax the tone in your emails messages i know how easy it is to take offense and fight off the overriding desire to chop your fellow editors into little civil cubes but honestly it doesn't work it's hard on the assumption of good faith and its hard on the furniture maybe live and let live cast a spell
