Revision as of 22:18, 18 September 2011

Colofac is taking a short wikibreak and will be back on Misplaced Pages soon.

Not through any choice of my own though, I've been persecuted here, and this is the result. You can ignore the fact that the vast majority of my edits were good faith, that the vast majority of my rpp actions were appropriate, that I have welcomed new users etc, it's not important.


Blocked

Colofac, the gratuitous insults and abuse which you've directed towards new users over the course of the past few days (, , , , ) has been utterly unacceptable.

As a consequence of your inappropriate conduct, I am blocking you from editing for a period of one week, and strongly suggest that you reconsider your approach to interacting with other contributors in the future; otherwise, the next block is likely to be indefinite.

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Colofac (block logactive blocksglobal blockscontribsdeleted contribsfilter logcreation logchange block settingsunblockcheckuser (log))


Request reason:

The list of reasons provided are mostly to do with an earlier conflict that I had agreed to disengage from and the block is therefore unwarranted. Further to this, I feel I have been hounded by other users related to this discussion. I disagree that I have been overly uncivil regarding this users' conduct. I do however, accept that my conduct related to User:NNU-1-17100215 may have been unacceptable, and would be willing to make a full apology on their page for my conduct.

Decline reason:

The diffs Kirill lists and a quick glance at your other contributions make it abundantly clear that whether you understand it or not, you have been incredibly uncivil, to multiple users. It's not about any particular conflict you're in; it's about the fact that you currently don't seem to be able speak to users you disagree with in a calm, non-insulting manner. A successful unblock request here will have to convince us that you understand that the incivility problem is real, and convince us that you don't intend to continue insulting or attacking people.

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.

In which case, blank this page and protect it for a week please, If you aren't going to let me edit here, at least prevent the trolls who have caused this to mock me. But then again, you probably don't even know that I have been trolled endlessly here. Oh well. Colofac (talk) 15:06, 18 September 2011 (UTC)
We probably dont; you've been too busy removing templates from your own talk page for us to tell. LikeLakers2 (talk | Sign my guestbook!) 15:21, 18 September 2011 (UTC)
Like I said, people coming here to mock me. Do you feel satisfied now LikeLakers? Even though you were trolling me, I'm the one getting punished. Thanks. Thanks a million. Colofac (talk) 15:23, 18 September 2011 (UTC)
LikeLakers2 has been warned to not continue this behavior. Please hold tight for a bit while I look into whether I can act on your request to blank and protect your talk page. A fluffernutter is a sandwich! (talk) 15:28, 18 September 2011 (UTC)

Appreciated. Colofac (talk) 15:32, 18 September 2011 (UTC)

Ok, I double-checked our policies: neither I nor you may blank your talk page (declined unblock requests for active block notices may not be removed), but if you really want the rest of it gone, you can remove the content from before the point where you were blocked, as long as you leave behind the block-related content. I'm not going to protect the page at this point, either, but I will keep an eye on it, and if there's any more baiting that goes on, I'll deal with those posts/users. A fluffernutter is a sandwich!

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 1 week for abuse of editing privileges. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. Your ability to edit this talk page has also been revoked. If you would like to be unblocked, you should read the guide to appealing blocks, then contact the unblock mailing list at unblock-en-l@lists.wikimedia.org. Courcelles 19:43, 18 September 2011 (UTC)
