This blocked user (block log | autoblocks | rangeblocks | unblock | contribs | deleted contribs) has asked to be unblocked, but an administrator has reviewed and declined this request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy). Do not remove this unblock request while you are blocked.
Request reason: "Being a somewhat well-known user on Gaia Online, when registering for Wikipedia, I thought it a valid point to use the username I use on Gaia for ease of editing Gaia-related articles, as well as adding some credibility to my edits. I in no way intend to offend anyone, and simply chose to use my unifying username. I'd like to be unblocked so that I can continue to edit, upkeep and improve the Gaia Online article, among others, and am willing to undergo being watched/stalked/etc if it will ease your fears that I am a troll. -- Thuperfag (talk) 02:34, 24 April 2008 (UTC)"
Decline reason: "Sorry, but you're still going to have to comply with Wikipedia:Username policy. Log out and create a new account. -- Netsnipe ► 05:04, 24 April 2008 (UTC)"
Please make any further unblock requests by using the {{unblock}} template. However, abuse of the template may result in your talk page being protected.
- Would you mind having your username changed? Tiptoety talk 04:22, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
This account has been
blocked indefinitely from editing Wikipedia, because of concerns that the chosen username may not meet our
username policy.
- This is often not a reflection on the user, and you are encouraged to choose a new account name which does meet our guidelines and are invited to contribute to Wikipedia under an appropriate username. If you feel this block was made in error, you may quickly and easily appeal it - see below.
Our username policy provides guidance on selecting your username. In brief, usernames should not be offensive, disruptive, promotional, related to a 'real-world' group or organization, confusing, or misleading.
If you have already made edits and wish to keep your existing contributions under a new name you may request a change in username which is quick and easy. To do so, please follow these directions:
-
- Add {{unblock-un|your new username here}} below. This is possible because even when you are blocked, you can still edit your own talk page.
- At an administrator's discretion, you may be unblocked for 24 hours to file a request.
- Please note, you may only request a name that is not already in use. The account is created upon acceptance – do not try to create the new account before making the request for a name change since we can far easier allocate your new name to you, if it is not yet used. Usernames that have already been taken are listed here. For more information, please visit Wikipedia:Changing username.
Last, the automated software systems that prevent vandalism may have been activated, which can cause new account creation to be blocked also. If you have not acted in a deliberately inappropriate manner, please let us know if this happens, and we will
deactivate the block as soon as possible. You may also
appeal this username block by adding the text {{unblock|
your reason here}} below or emailing the administrator who blocked you.
