Hello, Corbin.

*Laughs* What a silly situation we have ourselves in currently, eh? I'm messaging you now to try and explain that I've never been hostile towards you, and that this is an over reaction by yourself. You need to understand that just because someone doesn't agree with you, doesn't mean that they are attacking you.

I like your Locomotive Wiki, and I've tried to contribute my best work to it. Locomotive Wiki was actually the first site I truly edited. I made friends there, and I felt I'd finally found somewhere I had fitted in. Now you've blocked me. It's not the time-frame, it's the principle. I would not block you for what I have done. Which is what? Started a few discussions that have pointed out a few mistakes you've made? We all make them, Corbin, that's how we humans learn. You aren't going to learn anything from blocking those that are trying to help.

So I encourage you to think carefully about what's happened recently, and see reason. Stop making up excuses like that I'm overly frustrated, which you know isn't true. I have remained calm throughout this sorry-saga, which, given how rude you have been to me, is a pretty good effort if I say so myself.

If you remove the block you have given me, and restore my admin rights, we can then go and create that wiki into the work-of-art it deserves to be. However, I would like some assurances; such as:
 * That you don't presume that I'm attacking you, unless I state it as a fact;
 * You accept that I may know more than you in some fields, just like how you know more about the different models of diesel locos then I ever will;
 * And that if I need to give advise, you listen to it. You, of course, don't have to agree with it, but don't label advise as an attack when it suits you. Actually state why you see the object of discussion differently.

These three points are all that I ask. If you cannot meet me here, you'll never see eye to eye with me; therefore, I would not be able to work with you. Remember, the idea of a wiki is that everyone brings something to the table... :)

Sincerely Gav
