:I happened to see this request. I semi-protected the user talk, timing it to the end of the current block (if I did the arithmetic correctly).

== Sinebot ==
Hello again. I told you about an [[User_talk:Slakr/Archive_10#New_Signature|autosign problem]] with sinebot due to my new customed signature. You said, and I thought, that it had been fixed. But sinebot seems to be up to his old tricks again. I signed a [[Talk:Peter_Giblin#MathSciNet|talk post]] and it came through and autosigned it.

:Basically what happened is when I fixed your problem originally, I screwed up my regex such that it prematurely stopped at the "#" in escaped characters (like the quotation mark), thereby fixing the problem for you, but breaking for anyone who had a signature with escaped characters in it, including the people a few threads up that had quotations in their names. Anyway, I quickly realized my mistake and reverted the change, then re-fixed your problem a little while later. The bot's signing on the talk page happened about 2 hours before I had re-fixed the problem, and since it doesn't appear to be signing your posts any more, it should be finally fixed for good :P --[[User:Slakr|<span style="color:teal;font-weight:bold;">slakr</span>]]<small><sup>\ [[User talk:Slakr|talk]] /</sup></small> 04:03, 30 September 2008 (UTC)

==Signing with tildes==
A few months ago, you sent me a message that I just now read about signing with four tildes. I've got two words for you: Fuck off. In case you hadn't noticed, Mr. Incest, my name is signed automatically after a while, so there's no harm done. Mind your own god damn business.
:Thanks for the [[WP:NPA|kind words]]. You truly understand the amazing things that [[WP:CIVIL|being nice to people]] can accomplish. By the way, part of the value the value of signatures is that they tell you who left the message, so that when you cuss at people for doing something they didn't do, you don't appear to be horribly and completely in the wrong for doing so. For example, had you actually read the signature at the end of the {{tlx|tilde}} message, you would have noticed that ''I'' didn't leave you a message— my [[WP:BOT|robot did]].
:Also, your observation that your name does, indeed, get signed automatically "after a while" is correct— I wrote [[User:SineBot|the bot that does that]], which, had you appreciated the fact that signatures link back to user pages filled with lots of info about the dude who writes something, you probably wouldn't have made the mistake of [[WP:AGF|assuming malice]] in a robot [[WP:SIG|enforcing a guideline]], as is clearly explained on [[User:SineBot]]. Cussing me out for something my bot correctly did, at least to me, makes about as much sense as cussing out your car's manufacturer because your car starts when you turn the key.

Signing with tildes
A few months ago, you sent me a message that I just now read about signing with four tildes. I've got two words for you: Fuck off. In case you hadn't noticed, Mr. Incest, my name is signed automatically after a while, so there's no harm done. Mind your own god damn business.
- Thanks for the kind words. You truly understand the amazing things that being nice to people can accomplish. By the way, part of the value the value of signatures is that they tell you who left the message, so that when you cuss at people for doing something they didn't do, you don't appear to be horribly and completely in the wrong for doing so. For example, had you actually read the signature at the end of the
{{tilde}}
message, you would have noticed that I didn't leave you a message— my robot did.
- Also, your observation that your name does, indeed, get signed automatically "after a while" is correct— I wrote the bot that does that, which, had you appreciated the fact that signatures link back to user pages filled with lots of info about the dude who writes something, you probably wouldn't have made the mistake of assuming malice in a robot enforcing a guideline, as is clearly explained on User:SineBot. Cussing me out for something my bot correctly did, at least to me, makes about as much sense as cussing out your car's manufacturer because your car starts when you turn the key.
- Of course, you're free to continue wrecklessly attacking other editors and violating our other policies and guidelines, but I'm not sure how long you'll be around if you choose to continue doing so. --slakr\ talk / 20:50, 10 October 2008 (UTC)
