:::In what way did I belittle the staff? What I did is say that we have an unwritten policy of denying often obvious things (I unofficially call it "Bulbadenial", but no matter what you call it, it just exists), which I don't quite agree with (but follow it nonetheless). Also, as a long-time member (way older than most of the current staff) I'd expect some respect from others as well. For example, I find deleting my (polite) comments rather offensive. --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] ([[User talk:Maxim|talk]]) 22:21, 12 June 2012
::::You belittled Jo by saying she should "believe in what she says" which is fairly cocky for someone who sees "waiting for confirmation" as "denial".
::::Also, I don't care how long you've been here. You don't magically get respect by existing, you earn it. Something you have failed to do, and if you would bother to read people's comments (and the rules), perhaps you would have the respect you think you deserve. You've been here a lot longer than I have, and yet I managed to work my way up to the EiC position while you have a [[Bulbapedia:Archived_nominations_for_administratorship/Maxim|landslide objection for staff nomination]]. Use those words of yours to tell me how that is respect, and do it on '''this page''' because as you damn well know, the rules state to keep conversations in one place, regardless of how much you hate that rule. -- '''[[User:MAGNEDETH|<span style="color:#000033;">MAG</span>]][[Special:Contributions/MAGNEDETH|<span style="color:#696969;">NE</span>]][[User talk:MAGNEDETH|<span style="color:#000033;">DETH</span>]]''' 23:16, 12 June 2012 (UTC)
