Gymnastics
According to your userpage, gymnastics was one of your hobbies, besides, English seems to be your native language (or at least you write in it at advanced level). Then why had you stopped contributions to related articles? :( I was waiting for a few words about compulsories... At least I, consider your edits very valuable.

P.S. If you don't like me speaking to you for any reasons, feel free to tell me this. I'll understand. Cmapm 02:34, 16 March 2006 (UTC)


 * Hi Cmapm! I don't mind your speaking to me at all. You've been very nice to me and you've been a great help on the gymnastics-related articles. Thanks for all your encouragement!


 * I actually hadn't realized that I hadn't updated the gymnastics articles in a few days. I've worked on brushing up the articles for some of the British and Brazilian gymnasts, and I've been thinking about how to go about writing about compulsories. I'll definitely be getting back to work now. :) Namaste, Mademoiselle Sabina 03:28, 16 March 2006 (UTC)


 * Oh, I forgot to mention this on my talk page--English is indeed my first language, although I wasn't born in an anglophone country. Thank you for the kind words! :)


 * Hi again, Mademoiselle Sabina! I've seen your latest addition to Artistic gymnastics article, it was great! Sorry, I hadn't taken into account, that you might edit biography articles instead of editing topics on general subjects. And I thought, that you stopped edits at all :) And once more I want to say, that I like your gymnastics-related editing very much!!! Cheers! Cmapm 09:12, 16 March 2006 (UTC)


 * Thank you very much for your kind words! Don't worry, I'm not leaving Wiki! =) I'm probably going to change the userpage back in a few days when I cool down somewhat. Luckily most of the editors on Wiki I have met have been extremely nice, but there are always a few who aren't. Someone on Wiki I intensely dislike--because I feel they are pretentious and do not research the edits they make--had changed a word in my gymnastics article to something completely nonsensical and I momentarily lost patience. I'm fine. :) Thank you for the concern and the words of support! They were needed today.


 * Thank you, I stay here :) By the way, as concerns a category of people, whom you dislike, some time ago I had heard similar things from another user, a researcher, who had scientific degree in history. Besides, there is a wide variety of other cinic users here - trolls, vandals, etc. There is a long article Criticism of Wikipedia about Wiki's problems.


 * Feel free to edit or delete these my comments when you shall cool down, if you want. And, please, keep in mind my words in the last sentence of my previous comment. I didn't say them only for support, I really think so. Cmapm 21:10, 16 March 2006 (UTC)

Apologies
After cooling down a bit, I see, that I'm a total loser in the dispute, and that my disgraceful comment to FrankB "So what should I do...", which actually admitted my defeat and retirement, is the great shame. And I am very sorry for all that happened and all my actions. Cmapm 05:32, 19 March 2006 (UTC)


 * Don't beat yourself up over this. YOu're not a loser. I'm not a loser. As we've said, nobody was innocent in this dispute; that includes the other party. Frankly I think we've taken the high road here by admitting some liability; we'll continue to take the high road by refusing to engage with ___'s little squabbles.


 * I noticed you removed your email from your comment...was there a reason why? You've been my most awesome friend on Wiki; a great support and encouragement and I do enjoy talking with you. If you ever want to chat let me know; I'll enable my email link here so you can talk with me.


 * I also noticed you removed the information about the USSR from your userpage. I hope you will put it back. Your stand in the dispute showed a great deal of loyalty and courage; I think that's quite worthy of representing the USSR. I did want to ask you about the Pioneer song--I actually wear a Soviet Little Octobrist star pin for good luck (another friend of mine from Russia assured me it would be OK to wear, and was respectful) so I thought it was cool to see the song there.


 * Let's get back to gymnastics! Let's not let what happened spoil our editing here or the sport. Onwards and upwards. I think the best of you! Namaste, Mademoiselle Sabina 08:00, 19 March 2006 (UTC)


 * First of all, many thanks for your great support, I have no idea, whether I would recover without it. For the last three days I had the highest Wikistress ever, and perhaps the highest in all my real life. Just one detail: I don't remember, when and how I went to sleep yesterday! Your words recovered me and I appreciate it very much.


 * I'll recovered my page, included e-mail here again and you can remove or edit my comment above to not remind of that discussion any more. As long as we can speak here, it is not too necessary, but who nows, may be I'll be banned one day by admins for smth. or Wikipedia will not raise enough funds to be "alive", etc. - I leave you a permanent possibility to contact me.


 * It is very nice, that you have such a talisman, I don't have it as such so far, although I do have the star and even scanned it into the Wiki. One of my secrets for the general public since my childhood is my thinking of the phrase "the honest word", I use it very very rarely, only when somebody requires (e.g. I never used it in Wiki) and when I am absolutely sure of the answer in question.


 * I'll return to gymnastics-related topics for sure soon, I am just a fan, but I can provide some competition and biographical inf.


 * Thank you very much for everything. Considering you my best friend forever. Cmapm 15:55, 19 March 2006 (UTC), updated Cmapm 18:53, 19 March 2006 (UTC) - grammar, obsolete inf.

What about you, Mademoiselle Sabina?
How are you feeling now? Are you calm already? I desire, that both of us be fine, calm and cool! :)

In case you need it some day, here is one of my emails: cmapm_foreva@mail.ru. But you should be aware, that if you send me an e-mail, your computer's IP number will become known to me, and I will be able to know your location (state, town, maybe even the street).

I will be glad to speak with you at any time and on any topic. I like a conversation with you more than with any other user in Wikipedia and will always consider you at least my best friend, regardless of what you think about me.

By the way, I wrote down and deleted from here and from my user page your AIM name. If you think, it should stay here, please, excuse me and put it back. Cmapm 18:53, 19 March 2006 (UTC)


 * Thank you for the words of support and friendship! One of the things that has kept me from leaving Wikipedia over this dispute is the fact that there are nice editors like you out there.


 * I'm fine now. It's OK. As they say, "karma sees all and forgets nothing." I truly believe that. Don't let this upset you any more. It's not worth it. Letting ____ unsettle you gives him a lot of power; ignoring him and refusing to engage takes it away. In truth, now that I am calmer, I think it's rather sad that he acts the way he does.


 * One of my favorite quotes when I was younger was Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds. I think it applies here. Be well, be happy and let's get back to work! I will always enjoy talking with you. Namaste. Mademoiselle Sabina 01:06, 20 March 2006 (UTC)


 * I think, that one of the ways to upset piranhas is to leave them alone :) I am going to reformat some "achievements" info in articles about gymnasts, created by me, before I create new articles and introduce more info into existing ones. But I wonder for a long time, what does "Namaste" mean? I suspect, that it is a French word, but have no idea of its meaning :) I've just created an AIM account (sn:cmapmussr), but I'm absolutely "green" there - never used before.
