Dhimwit (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

I was not avoiding a block, I was letting an admin know that he had handled a situation EXTREMELY badly and that I had filed a complaint against him for it. There was no other way to let him know, given that he had no contact information on his userpage.

Decline reason:

That's definitely block evasion, whether intentional or not. Jersey Devil has emails enabled, it appears. – Luna Santin (talk) 04:38, 22 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

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.

Reviewing administrator, see User talk:82.20.124.228 [1] [2] [3]--Jersey Devil 01:05, 22 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Well if he does, it's very hard to find (so perhaps a source is in order). Also, your statements of evading a block are POV. All in all, the only intelligent and logical thing to do was exactly what I have done.

Given there is no easily visible way of contacting him through email, I will put up another unblock request. If you delete it or decline it without any attempt at discussion, this will show that you are just interested in power. Prove me wrong.

Decline reason:

Blocked users may only edit their talk page, or they may be blocked again for evasion. They can reach other editors per e-mail, accessible through the mail link on the user page. I recommend that you calm down and use your block time to read WP:NPA, WP:AGF, WP:CIVIL. We're not here to oppress anyone, we're here to make this encyclopedia work. — Sandstein 09:25, 22 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

That doesn't address what I said, which is that there is no easily visible means of contact. If I am wrong provide me with a link to it. I suggest every single one of you involved in this read the statements about improving pages instead of reverting whenever possible, being nice to people, assuming good faith and trying to resolve a dispute before issuing warnings/blockings as you all have paid no attention to them at all.

Repeated use of the unblock template is disruptive and may cause your block to be extended. — Sandstein 12:46, 22 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you Sandstein for proving my point about power mad admins who treat people like kids instead of engaging in discussion and reading what non-admins have to say. I have repeatedly asked that, if I am wrong about there being easily visible contact information on Jersey Devil's userpage, I be given a link to it. Not too much to ask for is it?

This user is asking that their block be reviewed:

Notes:

In some cases, you may not in fact be blocked, or your block has already expired. Please check the list of active blocks. If no block is listed, then you have been autoblocked by the automated anti-vandalism systems. Please remove this request and follow these instructions instead for quick attention by an administrator.
Please read our guide to appealing blocks to make sure that your unblock request will help your case. You may change your request at any time.

Administrator use only:

If you ask the blocking administrator to comment on this request, replace this template with the following, replacing "blocking administrator" with the name of the blocking admin:

{{Unblock on hold |1=blocking administrator |2=I was not avoiding a block, I was letting an admin know that he had handled a situation EXTREMELY badly and that I had filed a complaint against him for it. There was no other way to let him know, given that he had no contact information on his userpage |3 = ~~~~}}

If you decline the unblock request, replace this template with the following code, substituting {{subst:Decline reason here}} with a specific rationale. Leaving the decline reason unchanged will result in display of a default reason, explaining why the request was declined.

{{unblock reviewed |1=I was not avoiding a block, I was letting an admin know that he had handled a situation EXTREMELY badly and that I had filed a complaint against him for it. There was no other way to let him know, given that he had no contact information on his userpage |decline = {{subst:Decline reason here}} ~~~~}}

If you accept the unblock request, replace this template with the following, substituting Accept reason here with your rationale:

{{unblock reviewed |1=I was not avoiding a block, I was letting an admin know that he had handled a situation EXTREMELY badly and that I had filed a complaint against him for it.
