Your apology is heartily accepted, and the timing is reasonable really. I never miss a chance for friendship over rivalry. It is pointless to fight. I reckon agree you would agree with me in many ways; for instance, I do not agree that ANY wikia should be for ANYONE to edit. The concept irritates me. I reckon it should be join the wiki or nothing. 99/100 vandals tend to be 'A Wikia contributor'. Just join the caring user profile community, and edit as part of a cooperative unit. I rarely have anyone attack me, but when they do I always fight back. I only block when absolutely given no other choice. I even get into long conversations/arguments to resolve the matter another way. Still, spammers and illiterate infantile typers who can barely write a single coherent sentence, are never given the time of day by me. Pure idiots, really, and the kind that actually think that they are the best thing since sliced bread. Therefore, you can see why I would be riled up by some puerile and rude idiot, who HAS made a profile. 'Takecommand', as I recall it, I think. That really annoys me - like one of your own suddenly turning on you. He was not even literate and greeted me by rudely TELLINNG me to change what is factual and empirically supported information regarding the Geological Timescale, on my profile. Cheeky sod even put citation needed on me after I was blocked temporarily. Anyhow, thats not important. I am one who wants order, and higher levels of grammar and intellectual content on wiki pages. My pet hate, is childishly written, and blindly obviously amateurishly researched wiki pages. Commonly crafted/shat out by the tonne by random editors, most often mere wikia contributors. Basically, I am used to being an admin, and in fairness operate with the doctrine and drive of an authoritarian with a position of responsibility. I suppose I had not realised there was a sort of vetting process to go through on here to become an admin. I had, therefore, blasted TC back and become angry, because he was telling me what to do, not even about my editing on the wikia, but my personal info. NOT cool at all. As you understand. Well, whatever the case, I hate being regulated. I am one of the good guys, and need people to let me be. I loathe the thought of being restricted. If I were an idiot, then by all means thats fair enough. But I am clearly not an idiot haha one hopes. Heres to allegiance, over confliction. P.S - Palaeontology is central to my life. It is not all I am, but only because I am sort of polymath in my interests. In summary though, it is my life. I wish you the best of luck. Its competitive I think, but worth it! I want to get into BBC Natural History programming. I have plenty of ideas and would love to set in motion the rise of a new wave of British Palaeontology related programmes, which are akin to Walking With Dinosaurs etc. I hope. The scientific academics comes first though for me :) True Knowledge is True Power, to my mind. As I say - Good luck :) To friendship.
