Grr...
What's the deal with YAV? Can you explain, in your own words, how Warwick's actions/comments have violated YAV? I have the same issue with what s/he/they are doing, but I really don't see any violation of the YAV policy in particular. -User:PanSola (talk to the ) 09:29, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

 * General asshattery. You aren't valuable if people ignore what you say. Ignoring what others say because one disagrees with it is even worse than simply ignoring it. Consensus isn't reached by putting people on your ignore list, it's reached by discussion and debate. - Auroñ 10:08, 12 April 2008 (UTC)


 * General asshattery doesn't break YAV. YAV is specifically targeted at one form of asshattery -- that of self-deprecation to appear as a victim/mytre.  If I and Entropy ever get into an argument, and I say "screw you, I've been here way longer than you are" or if she says "screw you, I'm a Bcrat and you are just a lowly sysop", then neither of us are breaking YAV.  We are just inappropriately pulling our rank/experience to trump the other in an argument.  What breaks YAV are things like "I'm just a lowly sysop, you are the Bcrat, so yeah, whatever you say, you know everything".  A user can only break YAV if the user places him/herself at lower value.  Placing others at lower value is just being a jerk, it doesn't break YAV.  At least not the way the spirit of the policy was originally intended for. -User:PanSola (talk to the [[Image:follower of Lyssa.png]]) 10:18, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
