:Those edits will always be present in your edit history.  There is no way for you to remove them.  Besides, anyone can view the rest of your history by using the "next 50" link or setting the page to display more than 50 edits at a time.  Also, it is recommended that you answer or at the very least acknowledge questions posed to you by others.  Case in point being my [http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=User_talk:The_thing&diff=261215&oldid=260527 earlier question regarding your "h" edits] and [http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=User_talk:The_thing&diff=261849&oldid=261841 my request that you assume good faith].  Archiving these without a reply makes it seem as if you are ignoring me.  Thanks.&nbsp;-- [[User:Tom|Tom]] 19:24, 12 February 2006 (UTC)

Many of your edits recently have been borderline disruptive—in some cases it's actually pretty blatant. I think you know what I'm talking about. If you don't, you're old enough that you ''should'' know what talking about. Either way, my patience (if any) is quickly running out. This will be your only warning before I block you.

Hi there The thing.  Please review [[HRWiki:Personal images|the rules regarding personal images]].  You currently have three large personal images ([[:Image:E-Dolleraward.PNG]], [[:Image:Bubsty.PNG]], and [[:Image:car.gif]]) and one will need to be removed.  Please mark the one you would like to have deleted with the {{tl|delete}} tag.  Thanks.&nbsp;-- [[User:Tom|Tom]] 19:41, 12 February 2006 (UTC)

Hi, The thing. When you made [http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=User_talk:Funkykitten&curid=19081&diff=262579&oldid=262576 this edit] to Funkykitten's talk page, did you mean to say that this was a sockpuppet of another user or a troll, or did you mean that it was a sockpuppet ''you'' created?

Hi The thing. It seems you're once again over your maximum image count, with [[:Image:car.gif|One]], [[:Image:The thing.PNG|Two]], <s>[[:Image:edoller.PNG|Three]]</s>, [[:Image:E-Dolleraward.PNG|Four]], <s>[[:Image:Bubsty.PNG|Five]]</s>, <s>[[:Image:Homsarroks.PNG|Six]]</s> images currently in your care. Now images three-six are really almost exactly the same, with slight personalized variations. If you want to give out a barnstar as one of your personal images that's fine, but if you personalize each image they don't all count as one. You're gonna have to pick 3 images to go. I strongly suggest choosing a barnstar image that ''doesn't'' require personalization upon each awarding. Thanks. {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 18:02, 17 February 2006 (UTC)
