Perhaps you can explain why I am required to act in this way but not the likes of Violet Riga, Matt Crypto or lots of other people.
My annoyance started when Violet Riga got me blocked on a totally spurious request and has both not been punished and has nor apologized. It is referenced earlier on, in the thread.
I am quiet happy to have all my stuff up there provided other peoples is subject to the same conditions, but that does not seem to be the case.
For instance I am chastised for not replying to people were as David Gerrard and most of the members of the arbcomm feel that they do not have to reply.
Or for instance why Pcpcpc would use a sock puppet to perform edits of extremely dubious quality and then not explain why he acted the way he did.
As for spam, the address is on several WWW sites as a contact so it is virtually impossible to make it worse and Spamihilator seems up to the job. I've also had this email for about 15 years now, which also means it is well known.
You'll find I have used a spell checker but there is no guarantee that word correctly spelt is the right word.

What personal attacks have I made because I have been repremanded? My disgust strtches far further back than that.
When did it start and why?
It also yet again seems that I what I have done is a personall attack then so is everyones critisms of me. another example of 1 rule for the arbcommas.
I'm not on the Arbcom, but calling people "stupid immature idiots" won't help your case. Talking about "invalid, illogical, unreferenced, biased claims" in articles might - attack the idea, never the person.
My request for a page to be deleted was not spam, that several people have decided to use it as an opportunity to rake over the coals is not my problem.
What a person has in their user space is their concern unless it breaks policy (eg. is defamatory, illegal). Many people have pages like this as watchlists.
