User talk:BrandonWM

From TestWiki
Hello, welcome to my talk page!

If you want to leave a message, please do it at the bottom, as a new section, for better formatting. You can do that by simply pressing the plus sign (+) or "new section" on the top of this page. And don't forget to sign your messages with four tildes, like this: ~~~~

Attention: I prefer to keep discussions unfragmented. If you leave a comment for me here, I will most likely respond to it on this same page—my talk page—as an effort to keep the entire conversation in one place. By the same token, if I leave a comment on your talk page, please respond to it there. Remember, we can use our watchlist to keep track of when responses are made. At the same time, feel free to send an alert to me on this page about a comment you have left elsewhere. And again, please do not delete discussions of my talk page, it is my own decision. Thanks!

User rights

All advanced userrights have been stripped from you due to abuse of administration privileges. This was done based on a vote taken internally. You may only request this rights back by asking a consul, and a vote is once again taken internally, after at least 3 months have passed. You have been given many chances on this wiki, and each chance has ended in identical situations. We will no longer be lenient with this anymore.


On behalf of the consuls, Zppix (Meta | talk to me) 21:02, 29 December 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@Zppix:I was under the impression that this was already the case. Does this signify a particular change that I've missed, or is it just a reminder/"even more the case"? Naleksuh (talk) 21:57, 29 December 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]
This change is more restrictive as it requires a vote between all consuls for Brandon to regain any form of advanced userright on this wiki. Zppix (Meta | talk to me) 00:38, 30 December 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Like I said, I'm pretty sure this was already the case. BrandonWM was supposed to obtain consensus of consuls before requesting bureaucrat. They did so anyway in violation of their ban. Naleksuh (talk) 05:44, 30 December 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Oh, this is for "any form of advanced userright", not just bureaucrat. Naleksuh (talk) 05:46, 30 December 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Is this supposed to supercede the previous TBAN or supplement it? BrandonWM has decided to edit the "request permissions" page again despite the previous ban prohibiting them from doing so, and them being notified of this countless times. Naleksuh (talk) 07:19, 10 February 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
I am not permitted to request permissions. However, I am free to edit the page for housekeeping purposes and to leave messages, I've never been told against that. The current ban is a ban on requesting permissions. BrandonWM (talk - contribs) 15:04, 10 February 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
How does Prohibition on editing TestWiki:Request permissions, which may be imposed by a partial block if breached; translate to "free to edit the page for housekeeping purposes and to leave messages"? As far as I know you are not supposed to be editing that page at all, and you have been reminded of it by at least three different people. What I was asking the user who added the restriction was whether your new one overrides your old one or not. Naleksuh (talk) 17:13, 10 February 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
I've spoken to a consul already, and they've agreed with my assessment of the situation. If you have an issue, you are more than welcome to bring it up on my talk page, as you've done, but please do not revert my edits without consulting me first. The original restrictions were removed by Void as they were excessive, as again, consuls have pointed out to me and you, including Void himself. There's your answer. BrandonWM (talk - contribs) 17:32, 10 February 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
You are going in circles. As has been pointed out multiple times before, Void proposed removing the restrictions, but didn't remove it. In fact, here Void edited the page 10 minutes after you claim your restriction was removed, but they proceed to edit the page and keep the restriction there.
And, if you did believe that the restrictions were excessive, the appropriate action would be to ask for removal, not just to continuously violate it. At this point, I personally would strongly oppose removing the restrictions because the fact that you keep violating them proves that they are necessary. Please don't edit the page again, because it is not fun. Naleksuh (talk) 17:54, 10 February 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Editing other user's talk page comments

It appears that here you decided to make some unauthorized changes to my comments, both formatting I did not ask for, injection of new words and other formatting, and changing "to" to "do" in a way that altered the meaning of my sentence.

Please stop. You've been asked I can't even count how many times to not edit other comments, so, let's finally stop. Naleksuh (talk) 07:23, 24 January 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Hi Naleksuh. That's my fault. It was one letter and I don't remember ever intending to switch up your sentence, so it must've been an accidental click. I apologize on that. BrandonWM (talk - contribs) 15:24, 24 January 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
