Let me be very clear.

Don't make frivolous edits to user talk pages

I've been as civil as I can be up to this point. Now I must inform you that you are just plain making me angry. With all respect, no user is currently wasting my time more than you. Every time you leave a message, it's not specific enough for me to understand what your problem is. And now you've taken to making tiny, insignificant edits to my page because you're, in your words "fixing a problem". You have edited my user talk page five times today, none of which meant a damn thing. Let me be very clear. Your editing pattern on my talk page is indicative of a kid who's just figured out how an automatic door words. You keep puttin' your hand through the electric eye just to see if the door will open. Trust me, when you need me, I will almost certainly be there. I take my admin responsibilities seriously, and I try to the best of my ability to respond promptly to every message. That means that every time I get the "you have a hypercube" message, I look just about as soon as I see it. So if you're not leaving me messages I can act upon, I regard you as essentially "crying wolf". My talk page is not your plaything. Do not change things on it "to fix a problem". Every time you make an edit to a user talk page, it flashes the "you have a hypercube" message to its "owner". You've just tripped my alarm a few times in a row, causing me to break off what I was doing to investigate your changes, which were utterly meaningless. If you need to test something about your signature, do it on your own pages or at tardis:sandbox. Please indicate that you have read, understood and agree to abide by this statement in the space below.
