Hello Parkour. I hate to disturb your wonderful day, especially during the joyous time of Christmas, but I have been meaning to write this since I have not gotten the chance to beforehand due to personal issues as well as an unwanted surge of pain that delayed my internet activities. I still have said pain, and I am currently trying to fight it off to make sure I don't waste my time and send this practically never.

So, regarding the recent incident that got you blocked, there had been a heated argument. This stirred up some conversations about your behavior in general, with intakes coming from different users, especially staff.

To start off, you had been blocked from the wiki earlier around last week for piracy. The act of copyright infringement is one that shouldn't be messed with and can lead to hefty fines over $2,000 and in some cases could even lead to prison time. I do hope you realize that this action of yours was rather immature and disliked.

Secondly, we have the argument about categories. I am completely aware of the way Nusdan speaks and whatnot, and it may pass off as rude, but in reality Nusdan is trying to get a better hold of this wiki and is trying to help direct this site into a better shape. Nusdan felt that you had not communicated with the other staff prior to your decisions on changing the categories, which caused a discrepancy in the course of actions the bureaucrat wanted to take out. I do appreciate that you took the time to explain the actions you have done and as to why, but the point still stands; you did not consult with the other staff members about the situation to the point we were aware of what you plan to do.

Now, I know that being right is a thing that many people like to see themselves achieve. If we realized we are right all along about a particular topic, then we would feel pride or a sense of accomplishment. However, this isn't exactly welcome when it comes to arguments, and arguments are a situation in which agitates me the most not just to see, but to be in. We were stating how we felt you were not following instructions or consulting us with your actions with categories or your opinion on demoting Sweg Dragon, but it did not help when you had to continuously argue just to make sure your points are justified. It isn't just Nusdan who felt that you were jinxing issues at that time, but also me and some other staff members who I will not disclose of. I know criticism is not the most favorable thing to take in, but it is something that helps a user improve. We do not find it favorable to see you argue over something that is rather trivial, especially when it serves no avail to argue about in the first place from your standpoint.

Lastly, you did say how you only suggested that Sweg Dragon/Acer of Dragons be demoted from this site as he was inactive, but that was only in your message wall, right? We were taking a look in the Unofficial GD Wiki and saw your exchange with Protostar in his message wall, where you suggested to him singularly to demote Acer of Dragons. Demotion should not be a decision by only one staff, but rather the other admins of the staff team. (Yes, even the demotion of some bureaucrats and some other staff members that seemed to be just Nusdan's idea were talked about in the discord server.) Regardless, you seemed eager enough to have him demoted, and while I see you have valid reasoning, I do not understand why would you bring Sweg's username in the context.

It is not fun to deal with arguments, and it isn't fun to be in one either. It is not fun to have to warn a user, especially if it is for misbehavior. It is also not fun when we have to deal with assumptions as well that are clearly false. There have been users who have said that your inconsistencies make it harder for them to be able to properly appreciate you as a staff member, be it behavior or work ethics. That being said, I would like you to take this as a way of possibly better improving yourself, because while the staff are clearly not impressed with your behavior, they still would like to see you contributing in this site as you still play a significant factor to contributing here. Also, please do not start any drama or further arguments or conflicts from this message wall post nor backstab. Please take this time to go over your actions, and consider room for improvement.

Aside from all this, I wish you a Merry Christmas.
