Can't imagine you have anything to say to me but this appears to be the place to say it.

Indefinitely blocked[edit]

Your account has been blocked due to activity which makes it extremely probable that you are a sockpuppet account of a long-banned Wikipedia user.

If you wish to appeal this action, you can place an {{unblock|reason is...}} explanation on this page and another administrator can review the case. Georgewilliamherbert (talk) 04:33, 28 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

I think there has been a mistake. I made my account few weeks ago but only made my first change today. I'd give a better reason but I don't really understand what the reasons are for blocking me. Can someone either clear this up or explain what's up?

Decline reason:

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

Asked blocking admin. — Rlevse • Talk • 12:42, 28 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for helping me. I tried to leave a note on your discussion page but got a giant warning saying I was not allowed. Is this typical treatment for new members? No advance warning? Also, how do I know if things change and this block is removed? Thanks, Spindleshank (talk) 18:46, 28 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Ummmm...Help?[edit]

It's been a day since I was "blocked". Is there something I should be doing? This feels like I'm working with the government. Only the DMV at least gives you a number so you know when you're done waiting. Can I at least get a number? Or a sign that anyone cares that I'm here? Or at the very least an explanation of what the hell I did to deserve this? And what is a Wordbomb and why does someone think I am one? Spindleshank (talk) 05:04, 29 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

And why, when I click on Wordbomb's "contributions" link, does it show me my own? Spindleshank (talk) 05:12, 29 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Will somebody at least give me a sign that you can even read this? Just say "yes" below. If not I assume I'm supposed to scrap this membership and start over? Spindleshank (talk) 05:28, 29 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I think it's because of your one edit to naked short selling, which had been one of WordBomb and his socks' favorite targets. Daniel Case (talk) 06:05, 29 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The blocking admin said there is more evidence tying him to a puppeteer. — Rlevse • Talk • 11:58, 29 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
