RFCN
[edit]I am neutral in the discussion at WP:RFCN, and am mostly waiting until a clear(er) consensus emerges before closing, but I would advise that you back off a bit; you've made your point many times over. I honestly think if you keep pushing the point you might cause people to go against you purely from annoyance. Sometimes letting things play out is the better way to go.

- Fair enough but I assumed that in a discussion, people would not find it upsetting to have their arguments responded to. Indeed I assumed that someone who disagreed with me would find it strange if I did not respond to their disagreement. 51.6.138.48 (talk) 10:46, 14 September 2021 (UTC)
- To a point, sure, but after a while you end up repeating the same argument over and over and it gets a bit repetitive. It's a bit of a balance between making sure folks receive a response and beating a dead horse. It's not easy, sure, and I've definitely been guilty of it in the past (both over-responding and under-responding). I think with regard to this particular discussion, unless there is a new response to give, best to leave things be. Primefac (talk) 23:44, 14 September 2021 (UTC)

 | This is the discussion page for an IP user, identified by the user's IP address. Many IP addresses change periodically, and are often shared by several users. If you are an IP user, you may create an account or log in to avoid future confusion with other IP users. Registering also hides your IP address. |
