Hi K6ka. I edited the Vandalism template at 15:08 UTC on 22 May, because at that point of time, I already had been doing about 3 hours of solid huggle work, and it was within the last hour I faced an RPM of over 6-7. The first editor of the series of edits, I dream of horses was right in editing the template at that point of time, suddenly Defconbot updated with a level 0, which is not only unrepresentative of the situation at that time, it was clearly indicating it was unable to provide information, as good as malfunctioning. My last edit was at 15:45 UTC, which was 12:45 AM where I live, and I was going to sleep, therefore I did not make the revert back to Defconbot.
It was interesting to note that Defconbot then came back to normal shortly after (16:30 UTC), but I was certainly not there to see it. But even then, at the point of time I was active, I had grounds to make sure that the template reflected up-to-date information representative of the situation, which Defconbot was clearly not doing. At the end of the day, it's not about whether Defconbot is right or I am right or you are right; we just need patrollers to be on the beat whenever it is most required.
I would like to give a friendly suggestion that instead of going passive-aggressive in reminding other editors on your point, maybe you should engage in discussion with the editors in question. RCP and counter-vandalism is a collaborative effort, and the sum total of our actions is the defence of Wikipedia from disruption, not the defence of our point.

Hi K6ka,
I think what you have recommend in the Wikipedia:Changing username/Simple is a good idea. I have made it just now. Could you close the request? I will be very thankful :D
