I used to be known under a different user name, however, I was outed by a colleague. Due to concerns about my personal security I request that any users "in the know" refrain from using my previous name in discussions. Thank you
In my time at WP, I have never asked for people to stay off my talk page until yesterday. It was always my intent to allow for free and open communications for 14+ years now, but the number of people actively taunting/harassing me/intentionally causing angst has reached a point that I do not feel I can continue this policy (this literally includes accusations of murder). It has become increasingly clear that some people are incapable of being WP:CIVIL and Admins are unwilling to enforce civility requirements on WP (beyond just unwilling to even issue warnings, actively deleting warnings and defending incivility). While I still believe in allowing general communication, I see no viable alternative to stop this behavior. This is a very disappointing decision for me, but I will control what I can, even if it is limited to just my talk page.
Reasons for such choices generally involve WP:CIVIL and WP:SOCK.
Seeing as how I'm not allowed to keep a list of those I've asked not to and why, I have no choice but to keep this list offline. If you are asked not to comment on my page and you "forget", please know I tried to keep a list so you'd know and be able to check...I will be asking for blocks if it is violated. This is the only warning I intend to make; WP:ANI will be my next step. Buffs (talk) 16:39, 3 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
