User talk:Kung Fu Warrior

The account with this username has been blocked indefinitely from editing Wikipedia, because username is too similar to User:Bongwarrior; account appears to have been created specifically in reference to that user.

This is often not a reflection on the user, and you are encouraged to choose a new account name which does meet our guidelines and are invited to contribute to Wikipedia under an appropriate username. If you feel this block was made in error, you may quickly and easily appeal it - see below.

Our username policy provides guidance on selecting your username. In brief, usernames should not be offensive, disruptive, promotional, related to a 'real-world' group or organization, or misleading. Also, usernames may not end with the string "bot" unless the account is an approved bot account.

If you have already made edits and wish to keep your existing contributions under a new name you may request a change in username. To do so, please follow these directions:

Add {{unblock-un|your new username here}} below. This is possible because even when you are blocked, you can still edit your own talk page.
At an administrator's discretion, you may be unblocked for 24 hours to file a request.
Please note, you may only request a name that is not already in use. The account is created upon acceptance – do not try to create the new account before making the request for a name change since we can far easier allocate your new name to you, if it is not yet used. Usernames that have already been taken are listed here. For more information, please visit Wikipedia:Changing username. Keep in mind, though, that creating a new account is much faster and easier.

Last, the automated software systems that prevent vandalism may have been activated, which can cause new account creation to be blocked also. If you have not acted in a deliberately inappropriate manner, please let us know if this happens, and we will deactivate the block as soon as possible. You may also appeal this username block by adding the text {{unblock|your reason here}} below or emailing the administrator who blocked you.

Reviewing admins: I'd recommend no unblock as this account is obviously somebody's sockpuppet. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 21:57, 19 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I recommend no unblock also. I don't think this name was picked randomly. Admins please see this [1].— Ѕandahl 23:45, 19 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Your request to be unblocked has been granted for the following reason(s):

Allowing username change to Kung Fu Warrior (talk · contribs). Please put this request in at Wikipedia:Changing username as soon as possible to avoid re-blocking. I trust that this user isn't a sockpuppet and simply chose a similar username because the one he originally wanted was taken.

In order to help the reviewing admin, could you please answer:

What username or usernames have you previously used on Wikipedia?
Why do you need an account other than your existing account or accounts? -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 22:23, 19 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I have not used any other accounts on Wikipedia. I simply thought that Bongwarrior would be a good username, but I noticed that someone else already had that name, so I decided to add a Jr. to differentiate between us. Since I've already answered your first question, the second question is moot.Bongwarrior, Jr. (talk) 02:18, 20 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I have been unblocked by Oren0, but when I try to request a username change, I cannot edit the page due to the block on my IP address. Could somebody unblock my IPadress so I can request a name change? Bongwarrior, Jr. (talk) 02:44, 20 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I've removed this autoblock. Try again and let me know if it doesn't work for you. Oren0 (talk) 04:06, 20 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. Kung Fu Warrior (talk) 15:43, 20 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
