Whether you intend to or not, your posts stir up a lot of senseless trouble. It's hard to explain simply, but mainly it comes down to you not knowing or misunderstanding the basic policies of Wikipedia and results in discussions which start at square one over and over.

Tim,
Might you please extend me the courtesy of letting me know what I have done to warrant your proposal? I have read the Internet trolls article, and I can see no match between the individuals being described and myself. All of my posts have been in good faith, and none of them with the intention to bait. I am assuming your email was also in good faith.
Regards, Edmund Broadley

Seconded, I said after his first post that I'd be happy having him off the list. This is meant to be a moderated list, are any of the moderators paying attention? I'd rather a moderator deal with this, but if they're not around, I'll do it.
