Two years ago, I was once drawn into an arbcom battle, and I dedicated a lot of effort trying to -- ultimately, futily -- defend myself. I guess that's enough for a lifetime; if at all possible, I'd rather not enter another wikibattle.

::It seems I've made an embarrassing mistake; the explanation above is only about 250 words, not 1500 words. Counting 250 words per 39 diffs would only net a total of 9750 words, which I reckon would run from the mystery novel's exposition to about the first major cliffhanger. Still, it's a metric buttload of text. [[User:Digwuren|Дигвурен Дигвурович]]<sub>[[User talk:Digwuren|Аллё?]]</sub> 12:12, 19 June 2009 (UTC)
 
:I'm not sure if this helps, but if the request is spurious and your conduct is unimpeachable (I've not examined either), it will generally not be necessary to react. At most, you should reply only briefly (but not with attacks against others) to clear up any misunderstandings and let your record speak for itself. If the complaint has merit, on the other hand, you should not try to defend yourself, but to convince administrators that you understand the problem and explain how you intend to conduct yourself in the future. <small><span style="border:1px solid black;padding:1px;">[[User:Sandstein|<font style="color:white;background:blue;font-family:sans-serif;">'''&nbsp;Sandstein&nbsp;'''</font>]]</span></small> 11:04, 19 June 2009 (UTC)
 
::I can't promise it's ''unimpeachable''. Everybody does mistakes, and I'm sure I've made some. But among the flood of diffs, I don't know what the real mistakes are, and what's just filler. [[User:Digwuren|Дигвурен Дигвурович]]<sub>[[User talk:Digwuren|Аллё?]]</sub> 12:12, 19 June 2009 (UTC)
