Okay, so I am banned for using Tor and running a Tor exit node, right?
So can I pretty please qualify for emotional protection under [[Wikipedia:Banning_policy#Dealings_with_banned_users]], where it says, 'Wikipedia's hope for banned users is that they will leave Wikipedia with their pride and dignity intact, whether permanently or for the duration of their ban. As such, it is inappropriate to bait banned users or take advantage of their ban to mock them.'
You're not banned; you're not being baited or mocked. You're *voluntarily choosing a course of action* which leads you to get responses that you construe as being a) banned, and b) baited or mocked. If I chose that same course of action I would get the same responses.
I am not the first to point this out.
We are here to write an encyclopedia. We are not here to spend hours endlessly adjusting the processes for each and every person who feels they can't work with the processes we have. There are ten thousand active and committed editors on enwp; why do we have to bend over backwards to accomodate the fact that you, alone in those ten thousand, feel you don't have to abide by our normal standards?
