Yeah, I noticed that:
Off-wiki harassment by User:EricBarbour
I just saw this edit from User:EricBarbour at RMHED's talk page inviting RMHED to participate in a off-wiki discussion here [link to this thread]. In this discussion User:EricBarbour wrote: “(Starting to get the feeling that Aitias IS, in fact, an arsehole....)â€. I won't take action here myself, but nevertheless I'd like to ask whether this kind of off-wiki harassment is deemed acceptable. — Aitias // discussion 04:55, 26 February 2009
Hahaha. Someone's a little sensitive.
This sort of meltdown is what I saw in my own future. I parted before I popped my top; otherwise, I would have been cussing people out left and right.

RHMED [...] also lacked admin clique protection that shields other perennial big mouths -- fellow Brit Malleus Flatulence (or whatever the fuck his name is) does the same shtick but is protected by the admin Iridescent, who also falls into the category of the obnoxious British boors (it must be something in the water over there).
Fatuorum, dipstick. Some people just deserve some protection. He's one of them. Anyway, good call on categorizing Eva Destruction as an "obnoxious British boor". You really enjoy talking out of your ass don't you?
Some people on the project really have good intentions and do their best to bring about positive change -- like improving the handling of BLPs, provoking change in the way unruly admins are handled and in the RFA process, etc, etc -- while also doing great content work. It's practically impossible to actually see any change in the broken areas of the project, but at least they put in effort. You apparently lump these people in a category of "obnoxious British boors". Fascinating.
