The above is an ad-hominem statement about me rather than a logical 
argument in favor of your proposal or against any of my arguments 
regarding it.

But, to answer your questions, yes, I did register an account on The 
Site That Must Not Be Named, with the motive that they were 
criticizing me by name over there and I wished to be able to respond. 
I also wanted (perhaps foolishly) to engage those people in debate 
from a pro-Wikipedia perspective in an attempt to balance the often 
rabidly anti-Wikipedia stance that tends to be found there.

Since I don't censor myself well enough for their "standards", and 
they are known to judge people on their speech and actions elsewhere 
and not just on their own site, I was at one point banned from 
posting to their site, and might be re-banned at any point that they 
decide to do so.
