Also DP99, users have been warned to [[User talk:Etbmax|stop editing their userpage excessively, and still left after their page got protected rather than actually do anything to get it unprotected]]. I also find it incredibly unlikely such users would actually stay if they got probation instead (and I think probation would encourage them to leave even more, as they also lose forum editing rights and therefore access to Smash Arena). Regardless, any user that would leave over userpage protection for not putting in any constructive work is not a user we would want around here anyway, and should not be a concern. <span style="font-family:Edwardian Script ITC; font-size:12pt">[[User:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Omega</span>]] [[User talk:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Tyrant</span>]]</span> [[Image: TyranitarMS.png ]] 23:40, 27 August 2012 (EDT)

:<small>(edit conflict)</small> That is the point that I am trying to make, that no matter how users are prohibited, whether it be by a probation userright or a protection of their user page, they aren't as likely to want to contribute than if they are warned to keep it to a minimum, so while I don't directly oppose this policy, I feel that it's not really necessary. And ah, I coulda swore there was at least one or two cases where you didn't warn, but alas, I might be mistaken.

::'''Support'''. I myself have been restricted from editing other users' userspaces on another Wiki; it'll be great for the offending users to know just how I feel. [[User:RickTommy|RickTommy]] ([[User talk:RickTommy|talk]]) 01:43, 28 August 2012 (EDT)
