Free will and being able to control you sub conscious and it's needs are not the same thing at all.
The idea of lowering myself to the level of the average wikipedian is not appealing. That most of them don't appear to be hear for Wikipedias stated aims but for some other aims. I do not wish to join the "Wikipedia community", I wish to help produce an encyclopedia, and seeing as one of the most annoying features of wikipedians is their tendrncy to claim to speak for everyone in the community when try to brow beat. I have no intention of bolstering the numbers they can claim to command/speak for.
The idea of losing my integrity and taking part in a ritual is unpleasant, and as far as I can tell that's what this is.
I find talk to Matt very difficult as he seems to forget everything from email to the next.

I assumed you had free will. (Silly of me, I know, but I like to think the best of people until they prove me wrong.) Are options like contacting Matt Crypto, actually becoming a part of the Wikipedia community instead of quixotically fighting it, or going way and finding something else to do with your life utterly beyond the realm of possibility?

So in other words I do have to put up with it.

You don't have to put up with crap. You have choices.
John Bradley stated for the record:
No and I don't intend to. I have to put up with enough crap already.
