Reason. Really? How about Michael (or if you're collectively make all decisions, the whole admin team) tries using reason.

I created the Manufacturer Events pages. I know how the links for each car need to be specified, it has to be the full car name. Look at the RR3_Wiki:Cars and Available Races page, specifically cars like the MERCEDES-AMG A 45. I explained this more than once in the Upgraded Strategy message conversation with Michael but he ignored me and specified it as Make and Model which is wrong. In addition to taking my idea and changing the wording from "click here for a list of all events for this car" on the basis that it wasn't clear! Really, exactly how is that in any way unclear, just how stupid do you think Wiki users are? And his wording most certainly wasn't more clear. Yet another case of Michael having to do things his way and (once he's made a decision) not listening to reason.

''Just like his Sales update earlier this year, he'd developed a new template so he had to put it in. I told him that the date format was inconsistent and would cause issues and would stop my scripts working which meant the Sales History table I generated would no longer be available but he didn't listen. He was so focused on putting through his unnecessary change that he didn't care what effect it had on other wiki content, which is completely contrary to what he always told me to do when editing templates! He never listens. That's why I previously quit the Wiki, I just got sick and tired of dealing with such an unreasonable person who used his Admin status to get his way.''

I let the Events thing go because I couldn't be bothered to argue and I knew how pointless it was arguing with Michael who never listens. But I was editing a car page and noticed that the Events link was wrong so I corrected it. Out of interest I looked at the new car pages and half of them also had the link wrong so I also corrected those. After which I thought I should check the car template, which I noticed (contrary to my explanation) had been incorrectly specified as Make and Model, so I corrected it to use the full car name, added an instruction step 3a at the top of page and explained why I'd made the change. Michael reverted my edit without explanation, no message to me (which would have been the considerate and reasonable thing to do), yet again using his Admin status to push through what he wants even when (as I had clearly explained more than once) it was wrong. It was only after that that I sent that message (see below, expletive removed) to Michael.

''I explained why the car template needs the full car name, not the model name. You didn't listen, you never do. I edited the template because what you'd done was wrong, as evidenced by some of the new pages and existing pages having the incorrect link. I explained why. You reverted my edit. Why? This is not YOUR wiki. My change was valid. I have reinstated it ... and I will do so again. Stop being such an overbearing ... ''

He's now deleted that message, maybe because it doesn't fit in with you trying to paint me as unreasonable. Read that message and you'll understand why I'm so fed up with him (and the admin team in general). This was not a case of me behaving in a certain way because I think I contribute a lot so can behave however I want. That would be unreasonable. I have behaved in this way because, yet again, I've had to deal with Michael who I feel to be petty and unreasonable and he doesn't listen.

You guys refuse to ever admit that you might be wrong. And you do not listen to reason. Another good example of this is the stupid upper-case car name issue, nobody on the Wiki wanted that, but you guys got it into your heads that it had to be done because "the wiki must reflect the game" and then refused to listen to reason and the majority of wiki users and pushed it through using your Admin status. You are not reasonable so don't post on here trying to make out that you are and I'm not.

I stupidly gave Michael my spreadsheet. Against my request to not share it and his assurance that he would not, he obviously shared it with the rest of you and others. So you don't really need me anyway.

I have no interest in returning as long as this wiki is run by such unreasonable people. So, ban away, I really don't care, ban me for life!
