Request reason:

@Risker: Hi, can you unblock me? I had an account maybe a couple years ago but I had a lot going on as far as school and had some personal stuff going on too and became less active. (I think I had a little over 2,000 edits.) I just finished high school this year and am taking a gap year before heading to college and am still living with my family at home here in San Diego. I was spending the summer here with my brother, he was just a freshman, and he was complaining about being bored so I managed to get him hooked on Wikipedia. But I'm sorry for that because as it turns out, a moody high schooler looking for control is probably not a good match for wikipedia. He got hooked and I was appreciating the peace an quiet so I didn't pay much attention to what he was doing on here like I should have, but he ended up being too hardheaded and got his sorry a** blocked. I told him that in life as well as online, he has to deal with the consequences of his actions. He told me that everyone on there was out to get him and some other crap and said he'd give me 20 bucks if I could hold off a week on here without getting a block. I accepted obviously to prove him wrong, get twenty bucks, and because I had nothing better to do (I had a job at RadioShack but they went out of business half a year ago.). I reset our router to get a new IP because it wouldn't let me create a new account and then made one. So thats where I was up till now. I got into this again and I'll for sure be on here for more than the week for the bet (And this block doesn't count for that.). I was just doing some research into his account and he did some pretty screwed up stuff and I would have given him the block. He's had issues with cyber-bullying in the past so I hope this taught him a lesson to not mess with people and I'll try to make sure he doesn't get back on as he was a serious annoyance so don't worry about that. My actions so far are very clearly different from my brother's so thats one point against the sockpuppetry. I think that you are right to be suspicious but in this case, it's just a weird situation. Since I'm not my brother and a different account owner, I am not a sock and my actions do far back that up. People like my brother can't control themselves well online and I think that is something you can agree with so I think you should lift the block and then monitor me for a while, looking out for telling signs that my brother instead would be the operator of this account. I understand your reason for blocking my account but this is a weird situation as I said above. I think that that my suggestion is a fair solution to this that way I am not wrongfully blocked and you can feel like you aren't letting a disruptive editor loose by undoing the block. Thank You.

Also I'm sure that you can see from even just my userpage that I have a much better sense of community than he did. Wikipenguin 8 (talk) 07:38, 12 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
