Responding to the bait: My contributions are 99%+ of historic nature. Any Arbitrator (or anyone) who has read Discussion pages I've participated can see for themselves there is an intense focus on the substance of the article, and distinct lack of response to persistent personal attacks. I am a firm believer in civility particularly in controversial discussions. Am I guilty of a breaching experiment, and a one time error in judgement during my first visit to Arbitration? Yes.

Splitting the subject off of the sensible discussion that's going on...
"responding to it once during an arbcom hearing" is an interesting way to describe using your entire user page as a sustained personal attack. And what narrow specialist subject do you consider yourself an expert on again? Political hatchet jobs?

Enduring six months of personal attacks, responding to it once during an ArbCom Hearing, and being banned for a year, while those who trashed me and smeared me as being "banned for personal attacks" are given license to do it again. This why the image and reputation of Wikipedia, and the image and reputation of editors contributing in good faith is everything.

You were banned for personal attacks and placed on probation after that for disruption:

Oddly enough, cases like yours are not what I was talking about.
