Whatever happened to "assume good faith"?
Nothing to do with that. We know that people can do a lot of damage
when acting in good faith.
And what exactly are the bureaucrats going to do with
them? If they
influence the success or failure of an RfA, then they should be
positive or negative votes. Anything else is a comment.
The Bureaucrat is going to take them into consideration. I can comment
without even being neutral let alone supporting or opposing (I would
be ah disinterested).
No, it's far from that. I can't click on
anything in your post that
links to some page full of discussion and diff links and who knows
what and explains whatever you were talking about - which you *still*
haven't done.
The issue is the userbox wars I'm not going to go into detail. you
will find references to those events all over the place. Suffice to
say the lesion learned is that people's actions are a far better basis
for figuring out what they are going to do than what they say.
Common sense specifies what batshit means. Anything
else should be
supported with expository links.
"Common sense" has no place in rational theory. To start with algebra
starts to break down and you can't do calculus. There is a reason why
intuitionism has never been widely accepted.
