Fisted Rainbow

I have just posted a reply to an attack on me from Fisted Rainbow. This user has, amongst other things, accused you of personal attacks. Fisted Rainbow has been very uncivil, and has made threats and attacks, and I can quite see how they may have annoyed you. However, your own responses have also often left much to be desired. Please avoid making personal attacks, even if you are provoked, otherwise you may find yourself being blocked from editing. JamesBWatson (talk) 13:03, 21 March 2011 (UTC)

Hello, thanks for the comment, I take your criticism onboard. I'd like to point out that a google search for "Earthcore" brings up as #1: a link to the persons new business, and #2, this earthcore article. I'm sure you can see why they have a vested interest in the state of the wiki article. I'm currently taking my time to create a bullet proof "controversies" section, just waiting for a couple of documents to become available. I am sorry you were exposed to the vitriole caused by my attempts to do the same over the last few months. Hope you have a good day. Cognitive Dissident (talk) 04:18, 15 April 2011 (UTC)

This incident was so long ago that I can barely remember it, and since Fisted Rainbow has not edited for a month I am not going to bother to refresh my memory about it, but as far as I can remember there was no doubt that Fisted Rainbow was being completely unreasonable. I would suggest forgetting about it. JamesBWatson (talk) 10:18, 15 April 2011 (UTC)

In my view the two of them were being unreasonable - Cognitive Dissident was repeatedly adding inadequately sourced defamatory claims, and Fisted Rainbow was responding aggressively -- Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 12:48, 15 April 2011 (UTC)

User:Cognitive Dissident/Dragon Dreaming Festival ‎

Hi Cognitive Dissident. I work on conflict of interest issues in Wikipedia, along with my regular editing.

Would you please disclose if you have some connection with the organizers of this festival? Thanks. Jytdog (talk) 22:25, 6 January 2018 (UTC)
