Buenas suerte
Take care, Eddie. I hope you decide to come back. —Viriditas | Talk 13:15, 16 April 2006 (UTC)
- I'm not abandoning WP altogether, I'll still come back from time to time. :) Eddie, Monday April 17 2006 at 02:09
- That's good to hear. Take care and be safe. —Viriditas | Talk 03:24, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
- I'm sorry, I don't think an unblocking is appropriate at this time. At minimum, this block will stand for at least 24 hours while we sort things out. --HappyCamper 04:45, 26 May 2006 (UTC)
- Fine, let it be that way, but I want you to know that it was User:Bunchofgrapes that started all this by nominated exicornt to be deleted. Now he blocks me because in his opinion, mentioning the word in wikipedia is a crime. Eddie 04:48, 25 May, 2006 (UTC)
- That's good to hear. Take care and be safe. —Viriditas | Talk 03:24, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
The User That Blocked Me
The Bunchofgrapes|user that blocked me has caused me a lot of suffering on this site. We had a fight over a word that he nominated for deletion months ago. He hates the word so much that he suggested that any mention or inclusion of this word be consider vandalism.
I posted an {{unblock}}
In any case I will wait 24 hours and see if my request gets fulfilled.
Any user with sysop right can email me and we can talk outside of WP

A response
- This is in response to this followup post. I'm assuming the IP address is yours. Yes, I can see that Bunchofgrapes was the nominator for that article, and was also involved with your recent indefinite block. Perhaps from your perspective, that particular pair of actions appears to be "unfair" or "unethical". I don't know how to change this perspective to alleviate the problem, other than to lift the original block, and replace it with an identical one of my own. At the moment, this seems to be the most reasonable thing to do. Now, there is some discussion about it here and here (near the bottom), so ultimately, the block will be subordinate to the opinion expressed there.
- At minimum, I'm sure you recognize that some of your actions on Misplaced Pages of late have been less than productive - there is CheckUser evidence to substantiate this, for example, see 1 and 2. I would characterize this sort of behaviour as somewhat chronic (considering the AfD was months ago), and unfortunately, your recent use of Misplaced Pages's resources inclines on the side which does not support the case for you to be unblocked readily.
- At the moment, what I can do for you is the following: I will keep this page on my watchlist for a little bit, so if you wish to respond to this, you are more than welcome to. I can't guarantee that I will respond immediately since I have other priorities to attend to, but I will visit this page periodically, at least for the next little bit.
