`  :Why on earth have you done this? I had said the conversation is concluded - it is Jack who isn't letting it go by going to admins and other editors.  I have “cooled off” (I was only hot for a moment) – and I MUST express myself on my own Talk page. Is this language-censorship? What is it? Jack Forbes gave as good as he got – and my point about him stands. Are you green-lighting Jack Forbes in a general sense ? (and why get involved?) I do need to know this now, as my time is valuable to me: I am questioning why I am on Wikipedia every day at the moment: it has to make sense to me.  I remember you from the BI nationality dispute (before you were an admin?) - are you too close to this do you think? Please answer these questions.     :Actually don't bother: when I look at your opening line ``you've been warned time and again for incivility, personal attacks, edit warring, etc.`` (``etc`` for heaven's sake? Isn't the rest exaggerated enough!) - it simply makes me look like a bad Wikipedian. I'm just not having that. Less than 50% of admins seem to be up to the job, and unfortunately I always feel there should be more. Is worth me staying? Honestly - No. I could appeal yes, but what's the point?: Wikipedia has got to the hysterical point where editing is too-often seen as a crime (and a mark against your name), any old joe can throw around official-looking warnings (do you see me doing it?), too-busy admins simply head-count everything, and incidents are not treated on merit, but on a perceived ``reputation``. Name a developed country that works like that? It is a catch I can't see myself getting out of. I have a lot I still planned to do, but I can't see the merit in staying: Wikipedia has vast power and needs value-driven guideline-obeying people like myself - it is mainly the politicised who seem to understand the power of this place - but life is full of other things, and I can't see myself fitting in here anymore.    ==RETIRED==  I'm trying to think of who to say goodbye to. One guy's left himself over the farce with football. CarterBar - good luck. RolandR springs to mind. There's a motley bunch at Alzheimer's. I have seen several admins who are in fact very good (shit you guys are up against it!) I'll leave it there.   `
