User talk:Serinne

Other Wikipedia account

What other Wikipedia account(s) have you edited under? You clearly are not new to editing Wikipedia, judging by the instant creation of your user page and talk page, and your "copyediting" WP:Edit summaries. I'm asking you straight up if your case is a "I used to edit as only an IP address before this," a "I am a WP:Sockpuppet," or a "I'm employing WP:Clean start" matter. No need to reply on my talk page about this either; I currently have your user page/talk page on my WP:Watchlist. So replying here on your talk page is fine and what is best.

Hey just wanted to respond to you even though it's 4 months later. I used to edit a few years ago as an IP in response to your question. I want to ask you a question as well - I see you make lots and lots of edits to WP every single day so how do you have time to do anything else besides edit WP articles? For a person to be as prolific as you appear to be on WP (I'm basing this on the number of edits you make as well as your responses on talk pages) I would assume you spend around 10-14 hours a day on Wikipedia. Am I correct on this or do you have a life outside of WP and spend less than 10 hours or so per day editing? Not trying to sound rude or anything, I'm genuinely curious because when I would edit as an IP back in 2008 I found it to be extremely time-consuming. Please get back to me, thanks.

Your user page/talk page is still on my WP:Watchlist, mainly because I don't trust you. So your post to my talk page was not needed. But, hey, you've brought yourself to the attention of my talk page watchers, so okay then. I also don't think that you were not trying to be rude with your questions above. It sounds similar to an insult I got earlier. Either way, a person spending 10-14 hours a day on Wikipedia does not mean that the person does not have a life outside of Wikipedia. And anyone familiar with prolific Wikipedians knows that many of them spend several hours a day on Wikipedia, including some of the top WP:Med editors who have real life surgery matters to attend to. But never the matter. I've answered the "often on Wikipedia" question on my user page; it's currently seen in the edit history. Of course...I left out mention of my insomnia. But oh well.

"Either way, a person spending 10-14 hours a day on Wikipedia does not mean that the person does not have a life outside of Wikipedia". Yes it does. And responding in the manner you did to my question just proves you are most likely a complete loser who still lives in her parents basement. You probably enjoy editing Wikipedia because that's your entire life and any other idiot on this website who spends as much time as you is probably some annoying autistic loser who does nothing but edit WP all day and gets a kick out of being "smarter" than other people and having more "knowledge" than them. You sound like an elitist bitch based on how you interact with people on WP. And by the way I highly doubt there are Wikipedians who "have surgery matters to attend to". You are full of shit just trying to pretend people like you who edit on here have lives outside of their parents basements and editing Wikipedia all day.

Answering in the way that I did, and getting the response from you that I did, only proves my point that you are a non-new, problematic editor who was trying to touch a nerve with insults. You failed. I've had worse insults than that dished out at me on Wikipedia. You sound like another non-new editor I recently outed as the non-new editor that he was; like you, he became super angry and bitter very fast. Really, your rambling doesn't deserve an answer. For example, how can someone be "a complete loser who still lives in her parents basement" and an "elitist bitch" at the same time? Sounds like you need to educate yourself on more psychology topics. There are some psychology Wikipedia editors I can point you to. And since you highly doubt there are Wikipedians who "have surgery matters to attend to," I wonder which WP:Med editors I should ping via WP:Echo here to your talk page to waste time and educate you on that? You can find the selection at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Medicine. If you think those people are lying about their jobs, we have a few who are publicly identifiable. As for the rest of your comment: Hmm, interesting that I'm supposedly such a loser that I have fellow Wikipedians, some who are WP:Notable, that can vouch for one or two of my credentials. And, you know, the "basement dwelling Wikipedian" stereotype is so prominent that I almost mentioned it in my "07:58, 23 December 2014 (UTC)" reply to you above. So, just like, your non-newness behavior was predictable, your "basement dwelling Wikipedian" stereotype comment was as well. You are the type of editor that never manages to surprise me. What a bore that is. Flyer22 (talk) 09:10, 23 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Flyer you really got me pretty good with that last post I must confess. You are incorrect that I'm that DMSDM user you suspect I am, however you did respond in a very well-thought out fair-minded way so I just wanted to say that to you, and I hope you aren't too upset or angry from what I said in my previous post. You are probably a very intelligent nice person in real life (I hope you are at least). I just wanted to ask what your credentials were that you mentioned having in your previous post? Serinne (talk) 09:24, 23 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I never stated that you are DMSMD, and I was not implying that I suspect that you are him; I simply stated that you sound like him and behaved similar to him. I'll leave you be for now. Flyer22 (talk) 09:35, 23 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Flyer you mentioned there are WP:Notable users who can "vouch for your credentials". Could you please say what those credentials are? Thanks. Serinne (talk) 09:39, 23 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
