Again, the issue is over, long over, and I don\'t think he\'d waste his time trying to dredge it back up, again. Depending on which guy you\'re talking about, I\'ve either not seen him on, at all, since the incident, or have not seen him engage in any other such flame wars on here, and considering that one of those guys IS me, I think we can safely say there\'s no risk to opening this page back up for editing, since that\'s a DorkAge I really, REALLY don\'t want to dredge up, again.

Again, the issue is over, long over, and I don\\\'t think he\\\'d waste his time trying to dredge it back up, again. Depending on which guy you\\\'re talking about, I\\\'ve either not seen him on, at all, since the incident, or have not seen him engage in any other such flame wars on here, and considering that one of those guys IS me, I think we can safely say there\\\'s no risk to opening this page back up for editing, since that\\\'s a DorkAge I really, REALLY don\\\'t want to dredge up, again.
I know, it doesn\\\'t seem like a very sincere statement coming from one of the two guys involved in the flame war, and I\\\'m not trying to defend myself with this, but here\\\'s what happened: the issue was over an EditWar. When it started, news of the alleged WordOfGay for the comic was out, and I decided to put in some of the pertinent tropes related to it (mainly, well, WordOfGay and UnfortunateImplications). The edit war started with the other guy (I don\\\'t recall him using a screenname on here, either) making a bunch of JustifyingEdits to those tropes and the contents therein, because he felt that they weren\\\'t pertinent to the comic, and it devolved into what you saw.
The incidents you might be recalling on other tropes likely was a similar edit war on the WallBanger page, where the other guy or someone similar decided to make similar justifying edits to the examples given for the Sonic comic on there, not just mine but other people\\\'s, as well (if memory serves me correctly, that war started with a justifying edit about someone else\\\'s entry about Sally blowing Sonic\\\'s concern about insane Eggman off).
I will admit that, with those wars, I got a bit too upset and fanned the flames more than I should have, and I will accept a warning for that. However, as I said, I haven\\\'t engaged in such flame wars on here, since that incident, and I don\\\'t plan on doing so, in the future, even if this page is opened up again; hell, I\\\'ve even edited a few of my entries for the WordOfGay and WallBanger pages, to acknowledge the other guy\\\'s arguments (mainly how stupid in hindsight the writer\\\'s plans for the Word really were). I have also not seen the other guy around, any more, so while I can\\\'t say for certain that he\\\'s gone, I can say with relative confidence that he\\\'s given up on continuing this as much as I have.
Bottom line, I doubt there\\\'ll be any danger to opening the page back up; I doubt the other guy will return, and I\\\'m not going to stir up that beehive, again. As you said, it\\\'s been over half a year since it happened; I think it\\\'s safe to say that it\\\'s a DorkAge for everyone involved that they all wish didn\\\'t happen and won\\\'t want to risk bringing up, again.
