Due to off-wiki harassment, I have retired. Thank you to those of you who have been friendly with me over the past year.

Plus all that on-wiki harassment!
I did notice something interesting and actually positive in Lightbreather's arbitration, compared to GGTF and others I've seen.
Which is that now editors only can comment on Arbitration talk pages in their own sections. This lessens opportunities for drive-by harassing taunts against, and replies against, various editors who harassers are trying to get kicked off Wikipedia. They have to take responsibility in their own sections. Perhaps my screaming about "institutionalized harassment at Arbcom" had at least this minor effect... I hope they keep it for all future arbitrations...
