::I'll grant there there is truth in your remark, Horace, except that the rule applies for the benefit of all our major editors.  I don't want Conservapedia to lose a productive editor because he's being constantly irritated by an unproductive one.  If you were in my shoes and wanted to do what is best for Conservapedia, then I'd expect you to impose a similar "enough is enough" rule to stop irritation.  Wikipedia rules, which are far more complex and manipulable, are also used to stop the heckling at some point.--[[User:Aschlafly|Aschlafly]] 20:52, 15 April 2007 (EDT)

:::I understand your position.  There is a job to be done here and it can be distracting to have too many arguments.  You will understand that from my perspective, however, the rule looks somewhat different.  Where I perceive a wrong or unjust decision I seek to stand up and make my views heard.  If I am met with the proposition that I have made too many edits on talk pages that appears to me to be an unfair criticism and a way of attempting to silence my dissent.  Of course I edit on talk pages a lot.  Firstly, as you know, I am interested in the theory of evolution.  That page has been locked pretty much permanently.  I have made a large number of edits on the talk page (and other talk pages) in relation to the locking issue.  I regard that decision as just plain wrong.  What about James Maxwell?  I made a number of edits on the talk page which you didn't even respond to.  I was trying to avoid an edit war.  Should I have just gone ahead and edited the article?  Secondly, I am interested in the processes here.  As an editor who appears to have a number of views that are contrary to the views of those in charge, I am concerned (more than those in the majority I suspect), to see that the processes are fair.  That leads to a large number of talk page posts.  Those posts, in my view, are quality posts because they relate to a very important issue.  They should not be used against me.  --[[User:Horace|Horace]] 21:19, 15 April 2007 (EDT)
