:Sam's continuing insults? None here I can see. Please don't undelete the Rfc, which I had put a spedy delete on (or was somehow involved in the process) and needs to be seen in the light of the Rfc for Felonious Monk. I would remind you that Rfc's on editors not endorsed within 48 hours are subject to speedy deletion, and that you have no reasonable cause to undelete this one, [[User:SqueakBox|SqueakBox]] 15:24, 27 December 2005 (UTC)

That's why I didn't undelete it. However, the point I raised here were the insults referenced within the RfC. In addition to calling another editor[[User:FeloniousMonk]] an asshole [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3AFeloniousMonk&diff=19513782&oldid=19494467], Sam Spade evidently admitted to sending this e-mail by Wikipedia's e-mail function:

:To: "FeloniousMonk" <[e-mail]>

Line 185:

There is also this insult to [[User:FeloniousMonk]]: "And shame on you for wasting everyones valuable time with these antics. Kindly do something useful with yourself, I'm here to read and edit an encyclopedia, not to fuck about w personal politics to please your ego. <big>'''''[[User:Sam Spade|Sam Spade]]'''''</big> 08:16, 19 Apr 2005 (UTC)" [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia_talk%3AWikiproject%2FInappropriate_projects&diff=12512427&oldid=12511956]

All of this shows that Sam Spade has been having a long running feud with some users, in particular [[User:FeloniousMonk]]. Personally,Obviously I don't know all of the background to this and it appears that [[User:FeloniousMonk]] was involved in giving back the insults. However, since Sam Spade wants to be an arbitrator, I believe he must explain this insulting behavior. If he didn't want to be an arbitrator, then all of this wouldn't be that big a deal (in my opinion). I do find it ironic, though, that he has been taking Deeceevoice to task for her use of insults during discussions when it appears he does the same thing.
