* Obviously I'm biased, but I can't support someone who [[Special:Diff/1060169275|publicly accused me of socking and threatened to block me]] without providing a shred of non-circumstantial evidence to support these claims. These allegations essentially amounted to libel (not intended as a legal threat, just stating the facts) and could've destroyed my wiki career and reputation. This incident is what led me to retire shortly thereafter and at the time I never thought that I would return. I'm concerned that this user would be too trigger-happy with the "checkuser block" button/template, and I don't feel that a user who is unable to provide public convincing evidence to support public allegations should have access to private evidence that ''can't'' be shared publicly. You need to be able to demonstrate a proficient ability to back up any allegations you make publicly with hard evidence that is also public before you should have access to non-public evidence, IMO. Someone who can't or won't publicly state their basis for making a series allegation cannot be trusted with private evidence where the number of people who can confirm that the evidence is in fact legitimate are much fewer.

*:Kinda funny how one of the things you were accused of doing while loutsocking was...
