De-flood

I've been less careful than I should have about the ethics of the flood bit. The flood bit should never be used when doing something potentially controversial — anything that anyone might possibly resent having not seen in RC. (See m:Flood flag#Room for abuse?.) Since you don't have the ability to toggle the flag for yourself, and you're —demonstratedly— holding the bit for longer than you're willing to forgo potentially controversial edits, one of your accounts needs to not have flood, so that when you want to do something that shouldn't be hidden from RC, you can. Since the point of avoiding controversial flood edits is that pseudo-bots get less oversight, it makes sense to me that this account, which claims to need more oversight, is the one to de-flood. So, guessing that's probably the way to go, I'm doing that. Let me (or somebody) know if some other arrangement will work better for you. (I'm going to be around less and less this week.) --Pi zero (talk) 17:38, 9 August 2010 (UTC)
