{{rfc top}}
In order to remain listed at [[Wikipedia:Requests for comment/User conduct]], at least two people need to show that they tried to resolve a dispute with this user and have failed. This must involve the ''same'' dispute with a ''single'' user, not different disputes or multiple users. The persons complaining must provide evidence of their efforts, and each of them must certify it by signing this page with <nowiki>&#126;&#126;&#126;&#126;</nowiki>. If this does not happen within 48 hours of the creation of this dispute page (which was: 21:03, 8 January 2008 (UTC)), the page will be deleted. The current date and time is: {{mono|{{CURRENTTIME}}, {{CURRENTDAY}} {{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTYEAR}} (UTC)}}.

==Statement of the dispute==
The dispute largely stems from {{user|V-Dash}}'s behavior.  Without attacking him, his attitude towards other users is appalling bordering disgraceful.

=== Desired outcome  ===
The desired outcome is to make V-Dash realize that continuing in the matter he has been going is only going to end up getting him blocked for disruption and/or trolling, and thus cause him to change his behavior accordingly to be less confrontational.
<!-- 

The "what's the point of this again?" bit.  Half of the world is going to think it's precursor to arbcom, the other half are probably not going to look to closely since the _point_ isn't clear, and the other half are going to be going for the jugular no matter what.

So here if someone *cough* would write out a nice clear concise explanation of what they hoped would happen by raising this, all would be right with the world.

-->

=== Description ===
Since he appeared here, V-Dash has been little more than disruptive at worst and blatantly incivil at best.  He has a tendency to flat-out disregard what other users say with respect to his behavior and does not abide by consensus; only by what he deems is "right" (which, according to his userpage, is [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User%3AV-Dash&diff=182897693&oldid=179804755 anything he says]).  He has a very confrontational attitude, and has sparred with IPs who are apparantly users from the forums at [[GameFAQs]], where his behavior has won him no fans and one impersonator, {{user|Dash Jr}} (PolluxFrost over there).  He has also taken to assuming ill faith on my ({{user|Jéské Couriano}}) part. -''[[User:Jéské Couriano|Jéské]]'' <sup>([[User talk:Jéské Couriano|<span style="color:#0000FF;">Blah</span>]] [[Special:Contributions/Jéské Couriano|<span style="color:#0000FF;">v^_^v</span>]])</sup> 22:12, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

:#Yes, I agree his behavior has been a problem and have advised him to tone it back a couple notches. My only caveat is that I don't know for sure yet whether I have failed. We'll see.  [[User:Friday|Friday]] [[User talk:Friday|(talk)]] 16:16, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
:#I became involved in the disputes involving V-Dah fairly early on in his edit career, earlier than Jéské I believe.  He has broken more Wikipedia policies than I have read, including [[WP:SOCK]] and [[WP:NPA]], ignored [[WP:CONSENSUS|consensus]], accused Jéské of Wikistalking, and has edited his user page specifically to antagonize whoever he is in conflict with the most at the time. He seems to delight in causing conflict, and when people choose not to respond anymore he typically begins to attack both other editors, and people who have never even been on Wikipedia.

:#I have also been involved with V-Dash's situation for quite some time. I find his behavior to be entirely intolerable. He refuses to calmly discuss matters and simply goes along with whatever he wants. I wish I could say more, but I am unfamiliar with the intricate details of the situation that go back farther than I have been involved. -[[User:Sukecchi|Sukecchi]] ([[User talk:Sukecchi|talk]]) 17:40, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

==Response==
This is an outrage. The only reason why Jeske's is doing this is because he couldn't accuse me of that edit that happened during Christmas. he then threatens me with a very vague warning, and took forever to answer my question on why. Not only that, but he's supposedly an admin, yet he's the one who's always causing commotion. He is the one who tried to bait me to go to the DnD Discussion page. Quite frankily, his behavior is questionable as well.[[User:V-Dash|V-Dash]] ([[User talk:V-Dash|talk]]) 21:38, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

Indeed, as V-Dash's behavior was questionable, the admin by the name of Jeske is also at speculation as he didn't do much to keep the arguments between himself and Dash at bay. [[User:DeathMark|DeathMark]] ([[User talk:DeathMark|talk]]) 00:30, 2 February 2008 (UTC)

:#I have been watching Dash's debates ever sicne someone linked this into GameFAQs, where he exhibits the same behavior. He more often than not accuses others of things he does himself, his discussions are one sided in his favor despite any amount of arguments and proof brought against him, derailing of subjects for no reason than trying to divert attention from his failing arguments, and frequent deletions of his own messages (often after being copy-pasted for quoting purposes) after being pointed out for his mistakes, to then claim for purposely modified quote to make him a victim of the debate. His reasoning and logic only works in his personal favor at all times, and the same logic used against him becomes fallacy to his eyes.
