User:D4g0thur/My Arguments

= My Arguments = This is where I post arguments, flamewars, etc. which I had with my fellow Wikipedians. You might think it is a bit strange to post such things, but it is awfully fun! Besides, where would we be without arguments? Bored, that's where... and we both know that we don't want to be bored!

Image constantly being removed

 * This guy was going on a power-trip and kept removing "non-free content" from my userspace... as you can see, I was the more mature and ended the foolishness before it could escalate beyond a petty squabble masked by a thin veil of civility. The lesson to learn here is: sometimes we have to make compromises when dealing with self-aggrandising, small-minded narcists.

"You" keep removing images from my page... I'm guessing this is some kind of bot out of control... I assume, since its on your account, you operate it so, please stop it from attacking my userpage and subpages. Thanks. D4g0thur 11:10, 28 April 2007 (UTC)
 * No, I don't have a bot; I've been personally removing non-free images from your userspace. Per the non-free content criteria policy, non-free (i.e. fair use) images may not be used outside of the articlespace.  As such, I've been removing them from your userspace per policy.  The crux of the matter is that you may not use these images where you have them.  I'll remove them again, and for further reading, check both the aforementioned policy, as well as User:Durin/Removal of fair use images.  —   pd_THOR  undefined | 16:00, 28 April 2007 (UTC)

Ok, I don't want a fight here; however, if you're just going to go on a power-trip and try to back it up with rules which only exist to stop Wikimedia getting sued then I don't think we're going to get along very well. D4g0thur 07:20, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
 * No, not so much, I'm just enforcing Wikipedia policy. You may disagree with it, but I won't discuss the merits of the policy, nor my opinions of such.  I'm sorry if following the rules will cause you to be unfriendly towards me, but I'm less concerned with making friends than I am making the encyclopedia.  I fully intend to remove the non-free content from your userspace again to bring it into compliance with policy; if you feel compelled to re-include it, I'll speak with an administrator on the matter.  —   pd_THOR  undefined | 17:55, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

If you were actually concerned with making an encyclopaedia then you would spend your time making useful contribution to Wikipedia articles rather than wasting it on pointless trivialities like removing image which may or may not be slight copyright infringements. However, I won't revert this again, simply because I don't want to get into the petty revert war that you seem so eager to start. D4g0thur 04:22, 1 May 2007 (UTC)
