Instead of posting that barn-star or cat picture: maybe you should go to my user page, pick a page listed under "Articles that need improvement", and make an improvement.
I will generally reply inline to comments posted here, and without using reply-to.
I often read the recent changes stream for the Talk and Wikipedia namespaces, and am likely to comment on your heated dispute without being canvassed.
If I'm arguing with you on a talk page, I likely don't dislike you personally, but I likely do dislike your edits to Article space.
