Welcome!
Welcome to Wikipedia, ShieldDane! I have been editing Wikipedia for quite some time. I just wanted to say hi and welcome you to Wikipedia! If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on or by typing helpme at the bottom of this page. I love to help new users, so don't be afraid to leave a message! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some pages that you might find helpful: I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Oh yeah, I almost forgot, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name on talk pages using four tildes ( ~ ); that should automatically produce your username and the date after your post. If you need help, check out Questions, ask me on, or place helpme on your talk page and ask your question there. Again, welcome! The  Helpful   One  (Review) 11:43, 16 March 2008 (UTC)

Hello ShieldDane, welcome to Wikipedia. GoodDay (talk) 15:18, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

>< I'm not a sock puppet
 * That's not for I to determine. GoodDay (talk) 22:45, 11 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Then Hush! ShieldDane (talk) 23:42, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

I will stop you, no matter the cost
You racist meany, i am going to have your little leader TharkunColl blocked indefinetley. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Adrian Fletcher (talk • contribs) 10:30, 13 March 2008 (UTC)


 * And in the process, managed to have himself blocked indefinitely instead! TharkunColl (talk) 11:50, 13 March 2008 (UTC)


 * If TharkunColl is my 'little leader', who is my big leader? ShieldDane (talk) 15:33, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

Regarding your userpage...
Your userpage seems to imply that you are here to mindlessly agree with another user, and to attempt to tarnish "very prestiege of England". If this is a joke, then I respectfully request that you remove it, as it has made at least one user (on IRC) question your motives. If it is not, then I firmly request that you do cease (or at least do not start) behaving as a meat puppet and remember that we are here to write a neutral encyclopedia. Please leave any motives you may have at the door. J Milburn (talk) 18:55, 13 March 2008 (UTC)


 * The only article I've so far written should exonerate me. Perhaps looking that deep was beneath your shallow breadth? ShieldDane (talk) 18:57, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
 * I am not making any comment about any articles or your editing abilities, I am commenting regarding your userpage. No matter how high quality our edits are, we should be careful about what we put on our userpages, and, as I say, people have raised concerns about yours. J Milburn (talk) 19:02, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Well I'm pretty sure it's not "innocent until concerns risen". ShieldDane (talk) 19:04, 13 March 2008 (UTC)


 * :D -- The  Helpful   One  (Review) 19:38, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
 * No, it isn't, but it is because of said concerns that I am here. Now, back to the point in hand, your userpage suggests that you are here for reasons other than to improve the encyclopedia. You obviously are not, and so I take this to be a joke. However, I respectfully request that you remove said jokes, as they may be (and have been) a cause of concern to other users, giving them the wrong impression about you and your contributions. J Milburn (talk) 19:42, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
 * I'm afraid I'm going to have to go with..no, on that one. ShieldDane (talk) 19:44, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
 * So you're admitting that you are a meatpuppet, and here on a vendetta? J Milburn (talk) 19:56, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
 * lol! I'll quote your own words, "You obviously are not," ShieldDane (talk) 20:00, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Either you are what you claim to be, in which case blocking you would potentially be justified, or you are not, in which case you should remove the comments from your userpage. So are you, or are you not? J Milburn (talk) 20:48, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
 * SD, I'd suggest you re-word your User Page. JM's not joking here. GoodDay (talk) 21:17, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

{outdenting} I've taken the liberty of re-wording it for you. Have a read of WP:NOT and WP:NPA. Thanks. GBT/C 22:36, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
 * At which point vandalism isn't vandalism because you are just doing the 'right thing'? Thanks for the links though, if you actually checked the few articles I have written and even fewer edit's I've made I don't think I've stepped on anyone's toes at all. I've only improved the Encyclopedia by adding information that was not there before, as for 'personal attacks' well, like I said I've not even been engaged in any sort of disagreement over the Encyclopedia or my contributions or the contents of it, everything that's been tossed at me is just an unencyclopedic my user page. Imagine if everyone would have left me alone, i would just have more time to devote towards my efforts on bringing the Icelandic Legendary Saga's up to snuff, and not knee deep in some ridiculous argument about my user page. It seems to me you self-righteous seekers of anything of trouble are the ones taking away from the encyclopedia. If People can't have userpages to tell about themselves, then don't have userpages. And if they do, then don't get your knickers in a bunch when something you don't like too much... ShieldDane (talk) 00:11, 14 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Still waiting for that checkuser to go through...Joshuarooney2008 (talk) 22:39, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Gonna have to wait forever sweecakes, cuz that bird just wont fly. ShieldDane (talk) 00:08, 14 March 2008 (UTC)

Unblocked
Thanks goodness, Tharky is off the hook & and so is ShieldDane. GoodDay (talk) 14:18, 14 March 2008 (UTC)


 * We had a nice little kerfuffle earlier but the user who maligned us, Joshuarooney, has himself been blocked for the very crime he accused us of - sockpuppetry! TharkunColl (talk) 17:03, 14 March 2008 (UTC)


 * I toldja so. ShieldDane (talk) 02:14, 16 March 2008 (UTC)

Please refrain
Comments like |this are not appropriate, please do not make further edits in regard to this situation. Thanks. Igniateff (talk) 10:35, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

OMG YOU ARE LIKE SOOO HELPFUL. That was sarcasm. Uh, thanks for telling me something about a dead topic! And if I had the chance, I'd do it again. After what they put us through, they were owned. ShieldDane (talk) 06:38, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Final warning, if you continue to troll and act in a gernerally incivil manner, you will be reblocked with no chance of rebate. Igniateff (talk) 10:28, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Issue raised at wp:ani for assistance. Igniateff (talk) 11:37, 20 March 2008 (UTC)



I think this guy is the same guy who was blocked before

 * , how does he have the authority to tell me "Final warning...you will be reblocked with no chance of rebate" He's not even an admin, and it seems to me his account has been around since march 15th. I'm willing to bet he is here just cause more problems, and you guys are eating it up just like the admins did last time. I'm am abrasive, I am angry, and I do not handle misappropriated authority with any grace or tact. But I've been honest, truthful and even well meaning. (perhaps a bit long-winded at times) My point is, you guys are letting someone wearing a disguise of poise and good-attentions, belittle me, accuse me, and subtly attack me. And buy right into it. ShieldDane (talk) 05:45, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

Hi ShieldDane, after reviewing this situation I have to agree that your behaviour is rather unhelpful and rude. I can tell that you're happy that your name has been cleared after a check user but some "victories" are best enjoyed quietly :-) - So if you could possibly refrain from gloating or personal attacks or being uncivil or sarcastic then perhaps we can all get along better. Please remember to only comment on content, not contributors. If you have any questions or need any help getting around Wikipedia please don't hesitate to contact me. Scarian Call me Pat  15:49, 20 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Sheildy, you know I appreciate your articles, efforts and entertainment value on wiki, and belong to a sister Order to yours, so I wouldn't want to lose you here. Just reply to those who comment to you and warn you (even if you think they're wrong) in a slightly less mocking style, or OMFG YOU LIKE SO FAIL AT LIFE!!!(joke):) special, random,  Merkinsmum  21:27, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
 * In agreement with Merkinsmum. You should be more serious in your responses with other editors. Too much humourist responses? creates the impression of 'indifferance' to editors. GoodDay (talk) 23:08, 20 March 2008 (UTC)


 * I'm indifferent to people who find something I posted 5 days ago and decide they need to turn it into something bigger, who feel badgering me about something that is over is worthy of both their and my time. People who accuse me of trolling my talk page? I'll continue to respond how I want to respond on my talk page...I'm was frankly outraged, and coming on here and telling me a "owned" i posted last week is totally unacceptable, sounds to me like someone who likes to either stirr trouble where it has cooled, or someone who likes to find situations they can assert their authority over others. I wont stand for either. ShieldDane (talk) 02:46, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

No one has authority over anyone, friend. We work as a community to look after each other :-) - We were just concerned is all. Anyway, it's my birthday and I don't know why the hell I'm here... Take care and have a great day! Scarian Call me Pat  09:17, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Ok, lets take a step back now shall we? Can you Provide me links as to where I attacked you? No. What I actually did was warn you for the innappropriate edits you made to the rcu case page - which is well within my rights, you then come up with some crazy idea that I am picking on you, I am not! I would do exactly the same thing to any other user if he/she made those edits, but I was harsher on you because of your history. Correct, I am not an admin, but I have the support of two admins, and, acting in an incivil manner like you have done on more than one occasion towards me isn't helping you in any way. Seriously, stop looking for a battle everywhere and start contributing to the encyclopedia. Igniateff (talk) 09:24, 21 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Blah, Blah Blah. Cry Cry Cry. You're the one on my talk page. You're the one who issued me a final warning, you are the one whose account is little over 5 days old. You are the one who found a page of no more importance, and turned it something more. I am not the admin, and I don't care whose support I have. You're a crock, now buzz off and don't look back, or continue balling and we'll see where the rabbit hole really goes. ShieldDane (talk) 09:31, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Very well...Igniateff (talk) 10:15, 21 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Can we all calm down please, ShieldDane, you've been unblocked following a negative Checkuser check, you surely don't want to end up blocked again for disruption and personal attacks (which even if you don't think are attacks, if the intended recipient finds them unpleasant, that's a personal attack).
 * Igniateff, it would probably be best if you leave this to others, it's clear that your presence is annoying ShieldDane. Nick (talk) 10:18, 21 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Heaven forbid I be disruptive on my own talk page! ShieldDane (talk) 10:19, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Disruption is disruption, regardless of where it happens. Can you please just stop and do something more constructive. Thanks. Nick (talk) 10:24, 21 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Can you? I don't even know where you came from, riding upon your white horse of justice. Of course you easily dismiss what ever points and case I have made about the other user here, and tell me to pipe down instead. ShieldDane (talk) 10:30, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
 * I'm a bit confused why we're still talking about this. One of these users posted an off-color comment when they were apparently exonerated by checkuser results, and the other promptly reverted and posted this absurd threat. No, the comment wasn't ideal, but it's silly for so many people to get this worked up over it. There's more to civility than using pretty words -- sometimes it's better to drop an issue that really isn't a big deal. The escalation here is just silly. Let's give ShieldDane a chance to breathe, hm? – Luna Santin  (talk) 10:35, 21 March 2008 (UTC)


 * So you do want to be reblocked, I assume. Nick (talk) 10:33, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
 * For what? – Luna Santin  (talk) 10:35, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Personal attacks and disruption. I've asked him to stop, there's no need for anybody to behave in the manner ShieldDane is behaving, it's entirely unwarranted. Nick (talk) 10:37, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Users are upset by being blocked as sockpuppets when they're apparently not? How surprising! Forget their frustration at being blocked, let's just threaten them with more blocks if they don't hold hands and sing with people who are gunning to get them blocked over week-old comments for days at a time. I suspect he'll move onto other things if we let him. – Luna Santin  (talk) 10:41, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Just for the record, I am not against you, just your actions, so, to extend the hand of good faith, if you need any help with anything, give me a shout and I'll be there, like rfa's, discussion help that sort of thing...Igniateff (talk) 11:23, 21 March 2008 (UTC)


 * From someone who threatens me with blockings? Your face saving ploy will not save you, I know you aren't who you say you are. ShieldDane (talk) 11:30, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
 * It's called dispute resolution, it seems that you are immune to civil attempts to reconcile engagements, how sad, and, until you can prove those claims, I would stop harking sockpuppet. Igniateff (talk) 11:32, 21 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Yes, troll my page some more please. ShieldDane (talk) 11:51, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

After consulting with another admin we think it's best if everyone just ignores this mishap. Igniateff won't come here anymore unless it's for constructive purposes. I can understand that you were/are angry but your behaviour was rude. We've decided that it'd be best if both of you "kept away from each other". No more baiting. No more back and forths. Is that cool with you? We're just trying to build an encyclopaedia... not fight our fellow humans :-) - Have a great day, friend! Happy editing! Scarian Call me Pat  12:11, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
 * For the record, I never agreed to the above, and I am going to be here, watching you like a hawk, have a nice day! Igniateff (talk) 12:13, 21 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Why are you telling me to stay away from him? he's the one on my talk page! I've not posted on his talk page once! I mean look at what he just said. How long will it frikken take you guys to figure out who the bloody bad guy REALLY IS?! ShieldDane (talk) 12:22, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
 * In your own words "Blah, blah blah. Cry cry cry"...Igniateff (talk) 12:26, 21 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Sigh, it wouldn't be so easy for you if 90% of the admins on here weren't retarded and always believed everything you said. ShieldDane (talk) 12:28, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Admins now aware of that personal attack. Igniateff (talk) 12:40, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
 * I'm pretty sure all they are aware of is that you are really annoying. ShieldDane (talk) 12:46, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Thank you! A new personal attack! Quit while you're ahead. Igniateff (talk) 12:47, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

Please, both of you just knock it off for the time being. This is going nowhere but blockville for the both of you, and I'd rather not have to go there. =\ – Luna Santin  (talk) 12:50, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Oh, you didn't read the section where he called you - an admin retarded? Igniateff (talk) 12:55, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Just drop it. Move on. This is silly. J Milburn (talk) 13:05, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

Yes I know hun, but keep your nose clean for a while lol:) Don't rise to the bait.   -I didn't mean it in a bad way, I've enjoyed your efforts as you know.  Sorry I didn't stand up for you more, it was late and some arguments are intimidating.  Anyway- I look forward to more edits from you- in fact I'll mail you.:) special, random,  Merkinsmum  15:46, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

Igniateff
I totally agree that Igniateff was a sockpuppet of Joshuarooney and should ahve been banned, and I am sorry that you have been so harassed. But, to be honest, it is likely that he might pop up again and cause trouble. I think it would be best if you just completely ignored him (*and I mean completely) if he harasses you again. If he takes you to an admin, simply leave a comment with links to both of these blocks and continue on. Don't get in battles with him and (1) you will enjoy your stay here much more and (2) you will take away his thunder. He likes the battle, so don't give it to him.--Esprit15d • talk • contribs 17:37, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Justice triumphs over evil once again! He came on here and attacked me in a way that no one else quite noticed, and it wasn't until I flushed him out a bit his true colors began showing. But sure, if I am attacked again in that way I will try to tell someone..we'll see if they listen the next time, or just pat him on the back and tell him 'good show for being bold'. ShieldDane (talk) 19:17, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Not what I'd call the cleanest path to resolution, but I hope that helps you to feel at least a bit better about things. Sorry it took us so long to get things right. – Luna Santin  (talk) 21:38, 21 March 2008 (UTC)


 * on the irc channel, they were saying you were a troublemaker - I don't see it and think you should carry on with what you are doing. --87.113.93.118 (talk) 12:58, 22 March 2008 (UTC)
