The Arbitration Committee has historically probably been a better judge of a number of "people things" than the community. Since the Arbitrators are elected by users of the community as being (by definition) its best, most seasoned, and skilled users, it follows that a discussion in open community is going to be made up of users who have by and large not been voted by a communal process to be the best, most seasoned and skilled users. To underline this, it was the communities - plural - that decided Poetlister was legitimate... and it was an Arbitration Committee, twice, that stated categorically they were socks.

I'm not sure that argument holds up under scrutiny. The community picks the arbitration committee, therefore the arbitration committee must have better judgment than the community? Perhaps we should have arbitrators select their own successors? Avruch T 23:48, 19 October 2008 (UTC)

FT2, you really can't take a hint, can you? I'm sorry, but you're kind of out of your depth in doling out the same hard-won psychological insights over and over to Giano, to me, or to Loki, with the same air of discovery. You're also in the wrong place. (Have you even noticed that this is my talkpage that you're on, HINT HINT?) What's the difficulty, really? I assure you you couldn't go far wrong with the short-short version, which goes like this: Please Go Away. All right? Bishonen | talk 02:37, 19 October 2008 (UTC).
