HighwayCello is the one who is doing all the attacks, im working on a page with evidence, so think before you put your name down that you agree.

{Add summary here, but you must use the endorsement section below to sign. Users who edit or endorse this summary should not edit the other summaries.}

This is a ridicuous RFC. I know what this user has been doing and he should get a hard slap in the face for that, but this has just gone to far. Whoever filed this RFC is being a little bit of a WP:DICK. Raichu 06:39, 15 June 2006 (UTC)

Motion to close
I don't know exactly how and when RFCs should be closed, but this discussion is clearly stale, and the case has been heard by Arbcom, resulting in a one-year ban for various misdeeds. Move to close.
