===] and ]===
If you want to give a good argument for why Tor proxies are good in general, go ahead. You may well convince some people. Personally, I didn't know much about them or think much of them one way or the other, before your RfA. I suspect the same is true of lots of people.

If you want to explain why you personally need them, or use them, that's great, that's what the question was about.
But if you keep avoiding the question and instead try to turn this into an attack on Jayjg, you will turn a lot of people against you.

Think of how Acalamari nominated you. "CharlotteWebb is very civil, and she is also a very calm user, not one to get upset easily or anything like that." Keeping your ] is an important part of being an admin, which is why Acalamari emphasized it so much. You're not doing that.

Think of what you, yourself wrote: "Yes, but first, can explain why you have invaded my privacy twice, first by obtaining this information, and again by publicly revealing it?" That could have been phrased a lot better, but in any case, Jayjg has now explained. Your turn. --] <sup>]</sup> 21:08, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

:I see, but as it turns out there is more to this story, see below. — ] 07:59, 17 June 2007 (UTC)

==Selective release of incidental checkuser discovery of Tor usage==
Hello, I thought this was an interesting topic, so I entered a discussion here
] 00:55, 16 June 2007 (UTC)
:"Incidental" information is not anybody's business, and I do hope nobody takes seriously any suggestion to reveal it by default. Checkuser is not for fishing. If something is snagged by accident, please see ]. — ] 07:59, 17 June 2007 (UTC)

On ], I assumed that you would have no problem soft-blocking TOR nodes (thus enforcing policy). If I am wrong, please indicate that somewhere, and I shall strike my comments. ]<sup>]</sup> § 18:47, 16 June 2007 (UTC)
:Life can be one compromise after another. If that is the best way to control the amount of abuse while still allowing good-faith users to edit, I would not object to it, so yes, you are correct. If there are other alternatives, they should also be considered. — ] 07:59, 17 June 2007 (UTC)

==A word of thanks==
Another industrious checkuser has taken it upon himself to identify and block every IP address I have used in the last three months. I know this because I have read the block logs and noticed that several of the IPs blocked as part of this spree have (oh, shit!) nothing to do with the Tor network. For obvious reasons it would be foolish of me to say which is which, though I don't doubt everything about me will be revealed soon enough. It's so refreshing to know that my privacy is in such safe, competent hands!

This looks and smells like an unannounced de facto ban from the English Misplaced Pages (one having nothing to do with my behavior). Because of the heightened level of surveillance I'm under, any further edits I make from this account will only have a denial-of-service effect on myself and any other legitimate users of the Tor network. So, all I can say is I hope to meet you all again in the future when I feel safer.

If anybody's wondering, no, I'm not in China. I don't speak Chinese, though I do have some Asian-American ancestry. I've never set foot in China. I see no point in lying about this, but as far as I'm concerned, the thought that a potential stalker might embark on a wild goose chase through the PRC amuses me to no end. ]

I would like to thank everyone who voiced their support for me, especially those who did so even amid the fear, uncertainty, and doubt raised by the opposers.

I'd like to express specific gratitude to the supporters whom I admire the most for their tireless contributions to Misplaced Pages and their firmer grasp of our project's basic goals (to build a vast, 💕 that anyone can edit, not to play politics in a virtual fish tank), those who less frequently bother to even participate in RFAs, those from whom I least expected to hear a vote of confidence, those who may be controversial in their own right, those willing to risk their own credibility in an effort to salvage mine, those whose sentiments most closely mirror my own:
*Everyking (awesome editor, I don't care what anybody says)
*Rory096 (I'll miss you, a lot)
*Carnildo (always looking at the big picture)
*BigDT (it means a lot coming from you too)
*rspeer (comparing me to Zoe, what? I wish I was that good!)
I don't have any hope that it will pass but I see no reason to close it early, considering the gravity of the underlying issues. Thank you and may God bless all. — ] 07:59, 17 June 2007 (UTC)


Thanks for replying on this. Could you say more about why you wer using Tor, and whether or not you were aware of the policy against using it? Thanks, ] 19:13, 17 June 2007 (UTC)

:Charlotte, several of us are looking into this business of all of your IP addresses being blocked indiscriminately. Could you possibly let me know who blocked your IPs (use my e-mail if you wish to remain anonymous) and we'll get to the bottom of this - hopefully by unblocking the non-Tor IPs. -- ] 22:42, 18 June 2007 (UTC)

== Notification of request for arbitration ==

I have initiated a request for arbitration . Your input is appreciated. '''<font color="#330033">]</font>''' 19:35, 17 June 2007 (UTC)

: You mean the input she would already have given had she not just been BANNED BY A CHECKUSER? – ] 21:44, 18 June 2007 (UTC)

== Don't give up ==
I think the RfA has a chance of passing. And while I don't agree with anonymity by administrators, if it does pass you could work toward allowing anonymity in some circumstances. As far as explaining the use of proxies, I think the people who are demanding it don't understand that the explanation itself might be to revealing - you might say something to that effect. Anyway, good luck. ] 00:49, 18 June 2007 (UTC)

<> anyone knows how to get the "noteability" flag removed from a page?
<CharlotteWebb> , see the link that says "edit this page"
<> CharlotteWebb: thanks! that worked

War on idiocy:

  1. "Notability": is not and never has been policy .
  2. "Consensus": please learn to spell it before claiming one exists .
  3. "Merge and delete": is not a valid result of an AFD debate .
Please add new discussions at the bottom.
