Adrian, Thanks for your honesty and your backup.
No, I don't want to be one of the mindless drones that says that Wikipedia is perfect and I will never apologize for something I didn't do. I will and have, however, apologized when I said something that I considered wrong.
Mindless drones is a term that I came up with while still editing on Wikipedia. Yes,. it is the truth and the truth also, is that there are these brain washed people all over the world. They are living breathing examples of the present Orwellian state that the world is in. And the crackdown is about to happen. With the COPE bill and all the evidence I see on the internet, well. WE ARE SO FUCKED.
take care, Adrian and I do appreciate your concern and your friendship. ps Many of my posts do get included in the mailing list.

I thought that I would say something here.
I have now written 5 messages to the Wikipedia mailing list and so far none has been published. I have written to Jimbo Wales, to the Wikimedia board, and on talk pages, and I have had my IP addresses blocked because I asked them to look in to why I was blocked and whether it was fair. They have told me that I am not allowed to ask for anyone to question my ban. I have written detailed web pages proving that there were pages deleted from history which have perverted the "evidence" leading to my block. Administrators have come forward to verify that the pages that were deleted from history proves that I was being attacked and that I only repeated what they said to me back to them. But yet nobody will listen to my appeal. I have never vandalised Wikipedia or hurt it in any way. But they say that they will never let me back on because I have told so many people that Wikipedia has problems.
So I think that it is hopeless to talk to people about these things. If you want to be unblocked you have to apologise for your actions. You have to lie to them and say that you were a bad person, even when you did nothing wrong. You have to say that all of the worst administrators are really good people. You have to say that Wikipedia is perfect and promise never to say anything bad about it ever again.
Do not waste your time with people like this. Prasad is not the enemy, nor is anyone else here. They are just mindless drones who follow the group think. Somewhere further up the line someone is giving them orders. If they do not follow them, then they end up like you and me, on the banned list, without a voice. So they accept that they have no individuality in return for the privelege of editing Wikipedia.
So the question is this: do you want to be a mindless drone who has lost their individuality? Do you want to lie about things and pretend that horrible people are good? Or do you want to be true to yourself, as an honest individual who is their own person?
The choice is yours.
And if Prasad is an individual, they will not be one on Wikipedia, where individuality is frowned upon.

Incase you haven't noticed Mrs. Laupheimer, I was trying to assist you in your efforts.
- Where was this assistance? and it's not Mrs.*
I hope you realise that your constant complaining-which is the only term that can be applied to these e-mails- will only result in the list-Administrators blocking your message. *Complaining Prasad? How about telling the truth. And how is this the only term that can be applied..because you said so? You're kidding right?
Taking into account the fact that your talk-page has been protected, this mailing-list is perhaps the last medium through which you can express your grievances. *Wrong, pal. I have a website that is quite well known and quite popular. I also have alot of allies both in and out of Wikipedia.
- *My allies outside of Wiki are journalists, many presidents of
strong groups, and the general pissed-off (from being pissed-on)
- *public, i.e. regular lowly oridinary people like myself. Scads of
them,* *actually.*
Using terms like "vigilant spies" only seves to make you seem frivolous. Unless you abandon this attitude you are unlikely to be taken seriously. *Sorry, but vigilante spies is the only term I can come up with that describes these editors. Oh, I am taken seriously by many people on
- *Wikipedia, have no fear. Or then again, maybe have fear. The admin
cabal is doomed to extinction like most tyrannical regimes are. Note: notice how Philip Welch defends the Chinese firewall. Jimmy Wales went up against Philip on this. My email concerning this was blocked
- I am trying to help you, but unfortunately you do not seem to be in
a reciprocative frame of mind. *You have a strange idea of helping me. No I'm not reciprocative of * *sancitmonious bullcrap.* If you would still be open to my suggestions I ask that you contact me. *Sure.
