User talk:The Straw Man

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This blocked user (block log | autoblocks | unblock | contribs) asked to be unblocked, but an administrator or other user has reviewed and declined this request. Other administrators or users can also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy). This unblock request continues to be visible. Do not replace this message with another unblock request nor add another unblock request.

Request reason: "This is pretty silly..."


Decline reason: "Discounting whatever's taken place off-wiki, you've only made two vandalism edits to the encyclopedia itself so far I see no reason to unblock you either. --  Netsnipe  ►  13:59, 16 November 2006 (UTC)"

This template should be removed when the block has expired, or after 2 days in the case of blocks of 1 week or longer.

As I said, I'm not contesting that at all. I understand that is quite sufficient to block me. What I do want to say is, that in the context of the medium this supposed "threat" was made makes it utterly ridiculous. That is all.

Welcome to Wikipedia. We invite everyone to contribute constructively to our encyclopedia. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing. However, unconstructive edits are considered vandalism. If you continue in this manner you may be blocked from editing without further warning. Please stop, and consider improving rather than damaging the work of others. Thank you. --Wafulz 20:21, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

Please do not remove warnings from your talk page. --Dreaded Walrus 06:00, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

Fine. Did you care to read the few lines of text you deleted...? Once more, I do understand if I am to be blocked. What I do not really appreciate though, is a circlejerk of people pretty much claiming I am violent, or that I am seriously inciting violence over someone because of a wiki article that is no more. I can admit to being stupid and obnoxious, but that's a bit too much for my taste. I really do not understand how anyone could take such a thing seriously, either.
