Request reason:

I wasn't doing anything wrong. This seems rather arbitrary to me. Lots of things are being discussed on the ANI board about me, and I was defending myself. I wasn't attacking anyone or breaking any rules. It seems to me that WP wanted to censor elements of my off-wiki website that some editors didn't like. When I said I'd be more than happy to consider certain changes if any editors in question wanted to discuss specific problems they had, but I would NOT just censor all my criticism of Wikipedia from years ago, it seems to have upset various WP editors, and now, suddenly, I'm blocked. I came here with an open mind, looking for peace and I've been met with very little but harassment, assumptions of the worst faith possible and demands that I censor my website of content critical of Wikipedia and certain editors I found to be biased.  ::sigh:: I guess not much ever changes around here. Thanks to Avi, Spartaz and Off2riorob for trying anyway.
