Certified.Gangsta have an extensive and substantial block history for vandalism, personal attacks, trolling, POV pushing, 3RR violations, edit warring, accusing established editors of vandalism, and disruptive behavior . Certified.Gangsta's request to change his username in an attempt to hide his block log during his ArbCom case is highly controversial and should '''not''' be done.

| ::::::::It is a fact that block logs are not reattributed when a user is renamed. It doesn't matter whether this page is public or not, the fact that is that admins are ''not'' going to know about Certified.Gangsta's extensive block log when they block for other violations.
