Happy editing! Muhandes (talk) 13:30, 24 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

On second look, your editing style looks familiar. Surely you can't be some other editor I know? --Muhandes (talk) 13:47, 24 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I will make sure to sign off pages in future, thanks for the heads up! I also need to summarise my edits I noticed I didn't make use of that box. Just a quick question how does my editing style look familiar? Isn't there only one way to edit pages correctly that is. I could be wrong but that's just my point of view.

Drmies, Muhandes Hi I don't know if you can see this but I want to apologise for being immature on YeetaSkeeta, I realise now it was stupid and I apologise. I only ever made another account as my first had login errors (I'm not sure if this is because of the ban or something else) the option to create an account was available after a day and so I thought it was ok it was never to go against the rules and if I have I apologise. It was my original intention to go back onto YeetaSkeeta and apologise and just leave it behind but I couldn't so I started again with the edits I did previously. I enjoy making these edits and putting accurate information, I wouldn't be fighting this battle this hard if I didn't care about what I did for the community. It's given me a hobby and something to do to make sure others see the correct information and now I can't do that because I was immature. I am here to make a good encyclopaedia like the rest of the community the edits I made before the incident in my opinion were fine and up to standards. I just got caught up in the idea of making a page and when that was threatened and my work was getting deleted because of what I see as miscommunication and me not reading into it properly, it frustrated me and I see now that's how the site works, things will get deleted if they are not ready to go out there and I should of realised that, and for the stupid comments I made, they were stupid and I apologise about them. I am still new and I need to learn and this is a mistake to learn from if I can start again that is. I apologise for the mistakes and I need to learn I know that, but can I just have another chance on my user GuruOfSpeed or even YeetaSkeeta please? (I cannot put a reason in the box so I just thought I'd do it like this). Also I've just realised YeetaSkeeta2 has also been banned just to put that out there that was only ever created for Wikimedia Commons as It didn't let me log into YeetaSkeeta on that site so I assumed they were only loosely connected and accounts were not shared so that account was only used for that site, I only found out today that I can use the accounts of both sites, so that isn't an alternate account. I know what it looks like so I'm just clearing that up so it doesn't look like I'm using 3 separate accounts to edit. GuruOfSpeed (talk) 16:23, 25 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Not sure why I waste more of my time, but here goes. Although you now have twice the explaining to do, the road to redemption still starts with reading. All the block messages were very clear as to what you need to do. Drmies even did you the favor of reverting what you did wrong so you can read the block message more carefully and act accordingly. Being able to read and follow instructions is required. --Muhandes (talk) 20:09, 24 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
You're not wasting your time you are attempting to help someone who cares about editing but just got shown in the wrong light and didn't see the communication you were trying to put across. I know now it all starts with reading and I will have to read a lot before I have a slither of an idea to know what I am doing and even then I will get things wrong, we all make mistakes. Where can I see the block messages Drmies left, could you provide a link please? Another quick question why do I have twice the explaining to do, is that because of the other two accounts? Because if so I have already explained why they were made. But I have now been permanently blocked despite explaining myself is there any way to get out of this or is that it I'm done?
