Stupidity. Pure stupidity.

I just logged onto this account for the first time in around 2 years, and I have to say: I was fucking stupid back then. What was I even thinking doing that stuff? WhyDoIHaveThisName (talk) 12:27, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

Request reason:

I admit that what I did was wrong. I was 12 when I did this, so obviously that's another issue alongside what got me blocked. I was blocked for various disruptive edits, with the main one being swapping Special:Login and Special:Logout on pages. I know better than to do that now that I'm a sophomore, so I wouldn't do that again. All I really plan to do after getting unblocked is making ACTUAL edits when needed.

Decline reason:

I am declining your unblock request because it does not address the reason for your block, or because it is inadequate for other reasons. To be unblocked, you must convince the reviewing administrator(s) that

• the block is not necessary to prevent damage or disruption to Misplaced Pages, or
• the block is no longer necessary because you:
  1. understand what you have been blocked for,
  2. will not continue to cause damage or disruption, and
  3. will make useful contributions instead.

Please read the guide to appealing blocks for more information. Vanjagenije (talk) 11:50, 7 July 2024 (UTC)

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.

I am fairly certain that I did say I plan to make useful contributions after I get unblocked. Anyways, very well then. I will be making another one very soon. WhyDoIHaveThisName (talk) 10:36 PM, 7 July 2024 (EST)

That's a very quick way to end any chance of an unblock. You are blocked, not just your account. Once any new account is created and discovered, that account will be blocked, this account will be labeled a sockpuppet, and your chances of ever being unblocked go down considerably.

Did you really think I'm talking about a new account? I'm talking about a new appeal. Not an new account. I know better than to bypass a ban to cause more havoc, which is why I don't plan on causing more havoc in the first place.. Like I said in the beginning, I'm planning on making meaningful edits now that I actually know better than to do what I did 3 years ago. (I counted the years wrong in the original comment I made before my block.) Anyways, I'm making that new appeal in about a week or so. To whoever responds to this, have a nice day!

Thanks for clarifying, that's very good to know! Sometimes people will do that, thinking the account is banned, not the person, and I didn't want to see you get in trouble! CoffeeCrumbs (talk) 00:34, 11 July 2024 (UTC)

Request reason:

I was blocked for using this account for vandalism only (specifically redirect vandalism and spam). I did things from copy and pasting articles into themselves to changing redirects. I now understand how wreckful and annoying this behavior was. I've matured much more since then (I was almost 12 when I did these actions). I do greatly regret my actions since I've committed them. If I get unblocked, I plan to make useful edits in the Nintendo scene. WhyDoIHaveThisName (talk) 05:42, 13 October 2024 (UTC)

Accept reason:

I'm in complete agreement with Oshwah. Good luck. 331dot (talk) 00:31, 15 October 2024 (UTC)

Could you describe an edit you want to make? It doesn't have to be a multiparagraph addition, but should be more than just fixing a spelling error. 331dot (talk) 07:45, 13 October 2024 (UTC)

I'm more focused on the legal scene, such as situations with emulators. My main thing I was gonna focus on was the delisting of Ryujinx. WhyDoIHaveThisName (talk) 15:07, 13 October 2024 (UTC)

In addition, there's some changes on List of Wii Wi-Fi Connection games that I also planned to make, as a few of those games either never used WFC or primarily used their own servers with WFC only being used for login. WhyDoIHaveThisName (talk) 17:00, 13 October 2024 (UTC)

• Oshwah Would you oppose an unblock here? 331dot (talk) 19:01, 13 October 2024 (UTC)

  331dot - Nah, I'd say the "rope" principle applies here. This account was blocked three years ago, and it doesn't appear to me that they've tried to maliciously evade or engage in sockpuppetry. What's the worst thing that can happen if we just give em another chance? They'll immediately go back and add vandalism or cause disruption again. Assume no automated script or tool is being used: using the block button would take maybe 20 seconds to re-apply on the account. I don't think it would be the end of the universe if we take the risk and see how they do. ;-) ~Oshwah~ 00:25, 15 October 2024 (UTC)
