This probably looks like I'm trying to teach my grandmother to suck eggs, but I suspect things like where to ask for help and pinging have changed since you were last active, and I wanted to say we're glad to have you back. Yngvadottir (talk) 21:35, 10 September 2019 (UTC)

@Yngvadottir: Thanks! Since the egg-sucking methods have changed, it's nice to have a refresher. Sebthepleb (talk) 17:08, 11 September 2019 (UTC)

And nicer yet to see you bothering with this stupid place. ---Sluzzelin talk 18:40, 24 September 2019 (UTC)

A pie for you!

Thanks for giving your opinion on Andrew Yang in the reference desk. I completely agree with it. I couldn't find a 'Common Sense barnstar', so I have to settle for some food. Poydoo (talk) 17:50, 24 September 2019 (UTC)

@Poydoo: Thanks! Sebthepleb (talk) 18:22, 24 September 2019 (UTC)

I don't buy the whole "I don't remember my old name" bit. Looks like a sock, acts like a sock...then it is a sock. You managed to wade in too far to not be one. You've been here since June and it looks like you jumped in on the Fram-related issues, threatened to see all of Arbcom !voted out and then decided to give grief where you shouldn't have. That's enough battleground behavior out of you. I've reviewed your contribs and interactions and have seen enough toxic behavior.

Uh, believe whatever you like? You're wrong about me being a sock, incidentally, but since what passes for 'logic' around here and always has is "if someone denies they're a sock they clearly are one" you're not going to listen. So very nice to see that literally nothing has changed about this toxic shitshow in the past decade. Like it's clearly incomprehensible to you that someone who's been away for a while would be refamiliarizing themselves with whatever's happening at ani and so on and thus watching the entire Fram situation spiral out of control in realtime. It's such a shame, this project had such promise. Sebthepleb (talk) 00:26, 28 September 2019 (UTC)

I don't believe that you have a grasp of policies but cannot remember your old account name. Sounds like you are avoiding scrutiny. No matter, you started off slagging the project and holding such negative views. Nothing good will come of it for either the project or you with that attitude.
 — Berean Hunter (talk) 01:06, 28 September 2019 (UTC)

Do forgive me for not remembering a stupid username from over a decade ago. My early twenties were a wasteland of GigantoBong6969 and XxXSTONERFACEXxX kinds of usernames. Anyway, please forgive me further for reacquainting myself with policies. I know, I know; actually learning about something before doing it? That's really the antithesis of a Wikipedian and always has been. Clearly that was my mistake here. Sebthepleb (talk) 01:27, 28 September 2019 (UTC)

Sarcasm is always helpful. With such a dour outlook on the project, why did you return? If plus ca change plus c'est la meme chose, why would you expect different? Did you expect circumstances to change?
