Request reason:

I am shocked and saddened by this block and the claim that I am a sock puppet. I have been an avid reader of wiki for years and thought that it would be fun and productive to give something back by becoming an editor. I am, in fact, friends with TheTakeover and we created our accounts around the same time, but I don't see this as an issue. I am not aware of any rules against editors being friends, and don't understand why this is grounds to be blocked or be harassed by another editor. I also don't see how the user 2005 has anything to do with me, besides the fact that we both edit poker articles. I could see that 2005 was a respected editor and did not hesitate in backing him up when I saw another editor doing something wrong. It seems like you could just check the IP addresses and see proof that 2005 and I are not the same person. I'm sure we live in different cities, states or even countries. It's crazy to me that three non-abusive editors can get banned just because they are attempting to diffuse an editor like DegenFarang, who has repeatedly been complained about by the wiki community. I have never been complained about before and would like be unblocked so that I can go back to editing peacefully. This whole thing is ridiculous. Paige Barbeau (talk) 20:05, 5 August 2011 (UTC)

Decline reason:

The claim that the three accounts are operated by three independent people is an insult to the intelligence of anyone who has spent a couple of minutes looking at their editing histories. In my six years on Misplaced Pages I have never heard a WP:DUCK quack anything like so loudly. JamesBWatson (talk) 21:44, 5 August 2011 (UTC)
