User talk:BoojiBoy

Reasoning

I suppose "User hates Wikipedia" isn't really very clear. It's because you keep using abusive edit summaries. DS 03:17, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

This user is asking that their block be reviewed:

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

---

Request reason:

I've done it twice for an abusive former admin who's been desysopped. And I've never even been warned - no 48 hour block, no anything, just "I don't care you've been here since Nov 2005, you're gone forever." An indefinite block of a user who's been here for a couple years for the first breach of policy seems to me like killing a housefly with an atom bomb. And it's my own user space, I haven't done it on any articles at all. BoojiBoy 14:23, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

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've done it twice for an abusive former admin who's been desysopped. And I've never even been warned - no 48 hour block, no anything, just "I don't care you've been here since Nov 2005, you're gone forever." An indefinite block of a user who's been here for a couple years for the first breach of policy seems to me like killing a housefly with an atom bomb. And it's my own user space, I haven't done it on any articles at all. [[User:BoojiBoy|BoojiBoy]] 14:23, 5 June 2007 (UTC) |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've done it twice for an abusive former admin who's been desysopped. And I've never even been warned - no 48 hour block, no anything, just "I don't care you've been here since Nov 2005, you're gone forever."

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

{{unblock reviewed |1=I've done it twice for an abusive former admin who's been desysopped.

This does feel like an excessive block given the circumstance. I have left a message for DragonflySixtyseven asking for further clarification. I'll unblock you if I don't hear additional rationale in 24 hours. -- JamesTeterenko 16:13, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

*blink*

Jeeze, I have been overreacting lately. Sorry, I'll unblock you tomorrow.

Don't insult people, though. DS 17:43, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

Don't insult people, though. See that's a fair warning. :) BoojiBoy 17:49, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
