You may want to look at this regarding some of the question raised on the userpage. Basically, you should be okay as long as you don't use sockpuppetry for evil and don't use both accounts to participate in the same (or related) articles\discussions. -- Meni Rosenfeld (talk) 17:09, 27 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for your concern! No, I certainly won't participate in the same discussions as my "master's hand", and I will hopefully stay away from all vain and unfriendly discussions, vandalism or other evil things anyways. ... And sorry for the late reply as I'm not being used unless my "master's hand" needs me for some silly questions... (oh, what a life!)... --Thanks for answering (talk) 17:28, 21 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

Barnstar!

edit

Hi Thanks for answering. Here's the deal: I like to keep the number of barnstars I receive and the number I give out more or less in balance. Several users were recently kind enough to grant me barnstars, so now I have to give out some. And who better than to you?

The Special Barnstar, awarded to Thanks for answering In recognition of having never introduced any mistakes into any articles - and how many of us can say that? Herostratus (talk) 03:10, 10 July 2010 (UTC)Reply


Thanks a lot, Herostratus! :) My alter ego (see explanation here), who has never received a barnstar, is now jealously eyeing my beautified talk page and giving me some kicking from within. - I'm very sorry though about the issue of balance: Neither I nor that user are giving out barnstars. :( And... wait... yes, I'm hearing right now that said user would also prefer to give out barnstars (if ever) only to others whose work he knows and can reasonably certify. So I'm very embarrassed to say that neither of us can award you a barnstar--I'm sure not due to a lack of merits on your side, but due to a lack of barnstars on ours! If that should mean that you'd rather take back the above star, I'd fully understand (and I already see my alter ego gleefully smile...). All that being said: Thanks a lot, and do as you see fit.
