User talk:MikFantastik

Actually
I've decided that this entire thing is pretty ridiculous and that I have better ways to spend my time (e.g., volunteering with people who happen to cope with mental illness--people who don't appreciate being stigmatized). I don't belong to a fan website and wasn't aware that any "buttons had been posted to my profile." As I mentioned, no one cares whether the page is deleted. I'm incredibly disappointed that this wonderful project can be so easily manipulated by nefarious people. Please advise me on how to delete my profile and information. I won't return. Thanks!

Nothing to leave over
Mik, Wikipedia can be an odd place - it is, after all, a community. Just like your community, there are standards: calling people mental is not permitted. What you did to one person's Userpage is truly a bad thing. It was since fixed. I gave you both a welcome and a little warning - most editors have had more than 1 warning, and even some of the current admins have been blocked at some point in their Wikipedia career. Everyone has something to add - nothing is ever bad enough to turn around and insult, nor to lose any sleep over.

Take a day off. You have things to add to the Wikipedia project, and think about what they are. Glance at the policies I linked for you. You'll get a good feel of the flow around here, and someday you'll be doing the exact thing I'm doing, and you'll also have worked on and improved some great articles.

Let me know if I can help. ( talk→  Bwilkins / BMW   ←track ) 16:21, 24 February 2009 (UTC)

Hi again
Thanks for your speedy and kind response! I think I'm just not cut out for it. And since some of us have apparently gotten dramatic about it, I truly and honestly feel personally threatened by that user and most sadly, disillusioned by the entire enterprise. I think it's time to get back to my "real life" intellectual pursuits!


 * Heh ... you don't know a millionth of the WP:DRAMA yet. This is actually a good place for those intellectuals among us. ( talk→   Bwilkins / BMW   ←track ) 17:40, 24 February 2009 (UTC)
