I just wanted to take a moment to speak about the appalling treatment I have recently received here at the hands of Shabook, an admin of all people. A week or two ago I revisited the site to look up some info about the latest episodes of Agents of Shield. In the past the wiki and I have not gotten along, so I've been mostly inactive. However, I wanted to double-check some stuff. While I was looking around, I came across the page for Gravitonium. If you examine the page, you can see a sentence which seems out of place: "During the exposure of the HYDRA infiltration, Victoria Hand planned to capture and kill Phil Coulson's team under the assumption that they were undercover HYDRA agents." Now I ask you, what does this have to do with Gravitonium? As far as I can tell, nothing. So without hesitating, I removed the irrelevant sentence. However, much to my surprise, Shabook promptly reverted it without an explanation. I restored my initial edit, explaining I didn't see it's relevance. Shabook again reverted the edit, claiming that "it explained the following paragraph." As far as I could tell, no--It did not. I said as much, and restored my edit.

At this point. Shabook violated the Three-Revert Rule by reverting my edit a third time, and then posted on my page that I was in danger of violating the Three-Revert Rule. I won't deny that was true, but in my defense, Shabook was the one who persisted in reverting my edits, and Shabook further escalated the matter into an edit war. If Shabook had had a problem with my edits, the burden was on him to take the matter to the talk page to discuss it further. He should not have repeatedly reverted my edits. I restored my original edit, and told Shabook that if he disagreed with the edit, he needed to talk the matter out, instead of reverting my edits. Instead he blocked me for a week and reverted my edit without explanation.

After dutifully waiting out my week, I returned, because doggoneit, I was annoyed at his arrogant behavior: he engaged in edit warring and blocked me without any attempt at starting a discussion. I restored my legitimate edit and asked him to discuss the matter once again. Again, Shabook promptly blocked me--for three months now--and reverted my edits without any reason. Now I'm not looking to start a fight. But what I want is to appeal my ban to the other admins and ask their verdict, and to get some blasted discussion going on about my edit. Shabook, what is your problem with me? Are you too stubborn or proud to admit defeat? Is that why you can't stop reverting me? I made an edit, and you disagreed. If you disagreed, that's fine. Leave my edit as is and begin a discussion about it. Is that too much trouble to ask? I thought this was a wiki, where people could edit and make changes. Do I have to fight for every single alteration I make to your site?

However, as I think about it, if Shabook is true to form, he probably won't respond to this either. He'll just delete this post, and adjust my block so that I can't even edit my own talk page. Sigh... It's people like him which drive me away from places like this.
