Do not use multiple IP addresses to vandalize Wikipedia, like you did at Duran Duran. Such attempts to avoid detection or circumvent the blocking policy will not succeed. You are welcome to contribute constructively to Wikipedia but your recent edits have been reverted or removed. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Block evasion by User:Verone66. Binksternet (talk) 02:24, 20 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm Fuzheado. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of your recent contributions —specifically this edit to Troll (research station)—because it did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Help desk. Thanks. Fuzheado | Talk 06:07, 18 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

If this is a shared IP address, and you did not make the edits referred to above, consider creating an account for yourself or logging in with an existing account so that you can avoid further irrelevant notices.

On accusations of evasion...

In September 2019, this specific IP address was accused of evasion due to usage of multiple addresses. For the record, doing a whois on the 107.77.189.17 address shows that the 107.64/10 block of ip addresses belongs to AT&T Mobility LLC., and this particular 107.77.189.17 address is at the moment being SNAT'd through AT&T Worldnet via 107.77.190.118. Anyways, point is that essentially anytime someone connects to their mobile hotspot (either a new connection, or a reconnect from being dropped), the DHCP server does not honor a lease renew so you _always_ get a new address issued. Another thing is that at this time, this data is being tunneled through Cricket Wireless as its provider. Please keep this in mind prior to accusing users in this cidr of IP evasion, and especially when considering the amount of time that an ipv4 in this network is to remain blocked for a ToS violation. Thanks for listening.

This is the discussion page for an IP user, identified by the user's IP address. Many IP addresses change periodically, and are often shared by several users. If you are an IP user, you may create an account or log in to avoid future confusion with other IP users. Registering also hides your IP address.
