This is becoming more and more epidemic in recent
weeks. It's one of the
major reasons why I'm seriously considering not contributing further.
You're leaving because I dared use my l33t admin powers to delete in
process an odious pretense at a dispute resolution page under the
rules regarding the colour it assumed in its claim for legitimacy,
*despite* a lynch mob feeling otherwise. How dare I!
It was a lynch mob page. It was only made an RFC to give it colour of
legitimacy. Unfortunately, it failed even those rules and should have
been killed yesterday. The wacky move of moving it to Essjay's
userspace doesn't change that - uncertified RFCs are only kept in
userspace at the subject's explicit request. If it's an RFC, it lives
or dies like one.
Of course, that's nothing compared to people denied a hanging party, as you say.
