User talk:Xenotech

This account has been blocked indefinitely from editing Wikipedia because your username, Trollingtons, is a reference to trolling.

You are encouraged to choose a new account name that meets our policy guidelines. Alternatively, if you have already made edits and you wish to keep your existing contributions under a new name, then you may request a change in username by:

Adding {{unblock-un|your new username here}} on your user talk page. You should be able to do this even though you are blocked, as you can usually still edit your own talk page. If not, you may wish to contact the blocking administrator by clicking on "E-mail this user" on their talk page.
At an administrator's discretion, you may be unblocked for 24 hours to file a request.
Please note that you may only request a name that is not already in use, so please check here for a listing of already taken names. The account is created upon acceptance, thus do not try to create the new account before making the request for a name change. For more information, please see Wikipedia:Changing username.

If you feel that you were blocked in error, you may appeal this block by adding below this notice the text {{unblock|Your reason here}}, but you should read our guide to appealing blocks first.

Request reason:

How can you ban me from editing even though I didn't even do a thing to harm anything or anyone? I didn't do anything wrong here so I suggest you unblock me from this as this is just straight up dictatorship. Do you have proof I was intending to troll? No. Because, I wasn't. I just like the name "Trollingtons" as Deadmau5's cat is named "Meowingtons" and tends to troll around a lot. But, not in any way does this make me a troll and therefore banning me is an incorrect thing to do and I take an offense to that and it makes me want to not use this website. All I ask is to unblock me from editing. If I do try to troll pages and whatnot, then you have all right to ban me, but seeing as I've done nothing wrong. I shouldn't even be banned. Thanks, Trollingtons (talk) 06:31, 8 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

Hi, and welcome to Wikipedia. Nobody is actually accusing you of trolling, but Wikipedia does have rules on usernames that sound disruptive. And anything that sounds like it's suggesting trolling is always going to be interpreted poorly, even if your behaviour is fine. So please see this as a polite request to choose another username, rather than an accusation of any actual wrongdoing -- Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 09:16, 8 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

Well, it appears I still am blocked? How pathetic. Dictatorship at it's best.
