The wikipedia is the injured party, I am meerly insulted.
I'd agree with the former, but with a different slant. Your absolute conviction of being Right and your unwillingness to discuss or compromise when you've made up your mind hurts Wikipedia. Your use of simple stubbornness to get your way injures Wikipedia. Your tendency to see your personal biases as neutral impairs Wikipedia. Your willingness to engage in interminable revert wars does not help Wikipedia improve.
The question is, are you able to move beyond the soap opera of personalities to address the substantive issues?
When your opponent tries to address the issues, you address personalities. When someone tries to address your personality and behaviour, you dismiss this and insist on the issues.
And now you feel insulted that the arbcom is minded to hold you to a standard of non-disruptiveness. Please.
