A little notification

I wouldn't normally notify an editor about something I mentioned at my RFA because of canvassing concerns, but I know you're not a fan of being mentioned and not being informed. Therefore, I mentioned a recent interaction we had at Seatbelt Psychic here. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 23:41, 14 September 2022 (UTC)

I really appreciate that SFR. You know I'm on the fence about you. Your support of ACS (or whatever her name is now) still sticks in my craw. Thanks for the notification. Why oh why would you want to be an Admin? Sgerbic (talk) 23:49, 14 September 2022 (UTC)

Mostly so I can stop harassment like this and this instead of just reverting and waiting. I will get back to Seatbelt Psychic, too. Just a bit busy now, as in sure you can understand. I didn't find a single other review of that show, and I have to seriously consider bringing it to AfD or proposing a merge to his article. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 23:59, 14 September 2022 (UTC)

Oh are you trying to sweeten me up? What about your best friend ACS? Won't she be jealous? Sgerbic (talk) 00:06, 15 September 2022 (UTC)

Oh I see she and her other BFF are still around, asking you softballs. Hummmm Sgerbic (talk) 00:08, 15 September 2022 (UTC)

Don't worry, there were plenty of hardballs too. Quite the experience. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 00:11, 15 September 2022 (UTC)

Hardly best friend, but I try to stay on good terms with people. She and I get along, but don't really interact much.

If I was trying to sweeten you up in sure I could find something better than proposing to merge that article and redirect it. Do you like tomato sauce? I've got a couple gallons canned up, fresh from the garden! ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 00:15, 15 September 2022 (UTC)

I'm a worker bee. My team are also. We work - we build - we keep our heads down and get things done. The nonsense we went though for months was not fun, that was an excruciating time that we still are feeling. We have have turned inwards. There was nothing fun about it. I know you tried to be friends with all, fun and games it was to you and others. Like being in high-school with a gang beating up on the nerds. I never received an apology - nothing. And the ones that were the biggest bullies were never punished, everyone just looked away. I know you aren't going to get to the Seatbelt page, and why should you, there are hundreds of others here on Wikipedia that can deal with it. The WikiProjects are dead, the workers, those that really get into the weeds are disappearing. Run off. They aren't trained and I see nothing in your request for admin that really gets at that. It takes months and months of training to really understand how to edit - build a page. Seconds to revert, so that is what most editors spend their time doing. Most don't even explain the revert. It's ugly here on Wikipedia for us worker bees. Sgerbic (talk) 00:31, 15 September 2022 (UTC)

Susan said exactly how I feel about that. I subscribe to that. Psax (talk) 11:33, 15 September 2022 (UTC)
