I'm sorry, I made an error. I came to this page from the original url and incorrectly assumed that the person who left the message was the same person who moved the page.

You have both mishandled this situation.
 * Eulalia459678 assumed bad faith from me, when there was none.
 * Eladkse locked and moved a topic without explanation.


 * The only thing I have done is move the page to the forum namespace - where it belongs.

I left a relevant message on the talk page associated with a closed forum topic. (Why anyone would lock a topic due to the amount of time passed makes no sense, but that is a completely different issue) You have removed that association by moving the page. I did not create a topic, but due to your page move, it appears that I have.

I have done nothing wrong. In fact, that opinion is incomplete, so I'll re-state it fully:
 * I have been accused on not assuming good faith - I first contacted VegaDark and asked why he did what he did. VegaDark stated that he deleted the page because it saw it on the global changelog, but never explained why he deleted it, never admitted that he had made a mistake and never apologised for making the mistake.  He stopped participating in the discussion, and later erased the discussion.
 * I have been accused of "insulting volunteers". I have not insulted anyone.  Stating that it was my opinion that a user who deletes a page without checking the history is either irresponsible or incompetent is not an insult.
 * Anyone who deletes a page without first checking the history is either irresponsible, incompetent or a deliberate vandal.
 * Anyone who runs a red light and causes a car crash is either irresponsible, incompetent or a deliberate vandal.
 * Anyone who leaves the stove on and causes a house to burn down is either irresponsible, incompetent or a deliberate vandal.

Earlier, User:Eulalia459678 argued that Nobody is infallible, nobody.. Putting aside that this is a strawman argument and that no-one claimed anyone was infallible, it's true. Nobody is infallible, and sometimes people are irresponsible or incompetent.
 * Someone who makes an occasional error due to negligence is irresponsible.
 * Someone who consistently or repeatedly makes mistakes is incompetent.

I've made irresponsible errors many times. I've accidentally blocked the wrong user or hit Rollback instead of undo, the difference between me and VegaDark is that I take responsibility for my actions and admit that I have been irresponsible and that I did something which I should not have done.
