Seems to me that the odium SV and Crum are now held in means that when the dynamic duo come out against an Admin candidate the net effect is to motivate people to vote "support".

Oh dear, SlimVirgin decides to bait Lar on his talk page:

http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=...oldid=216044650

QUOTE(SlimVirgin)
"I suggest that you are not the person here with the most moral standing to speak about corruption or fraud or favoritism. Put your own house in order first."

What does this comment mean, Lar?
Or, to translate it from Slimspeak, means "Please say something that I can try to get you into trouble over."

Good on Lar for not taking the bait, though.

"What does this comment mean?" says Lar, whistling, looking at the sky innocently. rolleyes.gif

Yes, indeed, it means "Come over and say anything on MY talk page, that I can use later to accuse you of stalking and harrassment for."

Sorry, Slimmy, we've seen this trick. Nobody's buying it. But go with Wub wub.gif

Was that an intrusive, overly familiar comment towards a female editor I just saw? biggrin.gif
