1.32.95.68
Hi. I saw you blocked 1.32.95.68 (talk · contribs · WHOIS) for a year. Was that intentional? In my experience, customers on this ISP aren't allocated an IP address for all that long – maybe several days or week, then they come back on a new IP address to cause more disruption. Sometimes range blocks are a possibility, but I generally try to avoid this because of the potential for collateral damage. I think half of Malaysia is on this ISP.

- @NinjaRobotPirate: Yes, it was, because of the high number of edits, but I realise now that was a bit silly. I've re-blocked it for two weeks; I used to block those IP's for three months, but I think I'll take your advice on board and reduce any future blocks to one or two weeks.

- Yeah, that should do it. There's a vandal on this ISP who's been a long-term headache for me, and dealing with him has left me with a somewhat competent understanding of the ISP. Unfortunately, you're in for a lot of Whac-A-Mole. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 08:07, 20 January 2018 (UTC)
ATT Network block of IP 107.77.224.0/22
Hello. I was going to do a minor edit from my phone while at home and got a blocked IP message. I realized I was not logged in and also was on cellular for some reason. I did a test. Turning on Wi-Fi - or just logging in to my Wiki account - both let me edit. What a relief! But now I am trying to understand this. Was a block really implemented on a celular-service assigned IP range? How can that be effective? Doesn't that number get randomly assigned to anyone in range of a cell-tower, or maybe even a set of towers, and so it could affect hundreds or thousands of different people at any given time? Perhaps complicating it, due to poor service in my area, I actually have what is called a "mini-tower" in my house providing cellular service, which only my two phones are registered to use. I presume I was on that private "tower" when I got the blocked message, so that is doubly odd. Like I said, I can edit if logged in or on Wi-Fi, so this isn't a show-stopper, but I find the circumstances extremely curious. What can you tell me about this?

I believe that the article on Jody Linscott should categorize the percussion instruments she has played.61.69.217.3 (talk) 00:33, 21 January 2018 (UTC)
