Cyberbob vs. Matthew Fahrenheit

I take massive offense at the blatantly false and defamatory statements put forward by Matthew in this edit. Let's take a look at why:

• He is turning a conflict of personality into a true conflict of values.
• He is making completely unfounded attacks on promises I made during my promotion bid. Any harshness which followed my promotion was a product of longer-than-anticipated school hours and general idiocy on the part of my so-called "victims".
• I helped more newbies than I care to count; a fact handily ignored by Matt.

It is also worth noting that I broke no rules; bar one notable case, I stayed within the guidelines to the letter. People who disagreed with the way the wiki was run back then chose to take their anger out on the sysops, rather than the guidelines themselves. I have never had a hand in the drafting of any guidelines; anyone who says otherwise is false.

My goals in this case:

• For Matt to remove the comment
• To eliminate the misconceptions surrounding my conduct as a sysop

Thanks. --Cyberbob ^{DORIS CGR U!} 07:37, 30 August 2007 (BST)

I'll arbitrate under the condition the Chewbacca Defense get's posted. --Sonny Corleone ^{RRF DORIS CRF pr0n} 07:40, 30 August 2007 (BST)

Shut up Sonny. I agree to eliminate the comments, no need for an Arbitrator. Just had to ask Cyber... Anyways, my only concern is that you had replied to it, and now it would leave the chat in an ankward state. Should I strike my comment, remove it altogether and leave yours, or delete both? Keep in mind that I would delete the paragraph that talks about you, not the rest of the explanation. --Matthew Fahrenheit ^YRC☺T☺+1 07:45, 30 August 2007 (BST)

Who pissed in your cheerios this morning? --Sonny Corleone ^{RRF DORIS CRF pr0n} 08:38, 30 August 2007 (BST)

I'll remove my comment first - that way we avoid the possibility of someone who doesn't know about this case taking you to A/VB.

Thanks for agreeing to remove it, by the way. =) --Cyberbob ^{DORIS CGR U!} 07:52, 30 August 2007 (BST)

I'm done. I guess I was carried away this particular time and made a very brief and hasty accusation thinking I wasn't losing anything in doing so, so I apologize for the troubles caused. I'm sorry. --Matthew Fahrenheit ^YRC☺T☺+1 08:03, 30 August 2007 (BST)

No worries. Nobody's perfect. --Cyberbob ^{DORIS CGR U!} 08:05, 30 August 2007 (BST)

Well what a fluff of hot air that was. I think this should stay up for another 12 hours before wiping the page. --_Ducis ^Dux_Sloth^Talk 10:33, 30 August 2007 (BST)

Hot air? I achieved what I set out to do, didn't I? --Cyberbob ^{DORIS CGR U!} 10:51, 30 August 2007 (BST)

You indeed did, however there were other channels you could have taken the issue to before here. --_Ducis ^Dux_Sloth^Talk 11:13, 30 August 2007 (BST)

I had no reason to believe that any measure less "powerful" (for want of a better term) than Arbitration would have any effect. Matt has a long record of ignoring messages I post on his talk page. --Cyberbob ^{DORIS CGR U!} 11:39, 30 August 2007 (BST)

Ah, don't get down on him Dux, I would have totally missed that post if he'd just asked for it's removal, like any well intentioned poster would have. Pretty accurate summing up I'd say The preceding signed comment was added by boxy (talk • contribs) at 11:46 30 August 2007 (BST)

Are you being sarcastic? --Cyberbob ^{DORIS CGR U!} 11:55, 30 August 2007 (BST)

No, I think bitchy is a more accurate description of what I was being The preceding signed comment was added by boxy (talk • contribs) at 12:09 30 August 2007 (BST)

Bitchy at me (sorry if I'm being obtuse; your comment was very ambiguous)? --Cyberbob ^{DORIS CGR U!} 12:28, 30 August 2007 (BST)

I submit myself for some delicious, delicious Arby's! --Karlsbad 21:38, 30 August 2007 (BST)
