I understand why you did it. I left all the other reverts of the IP because it's pretty obviously a sock... there just ins't a reason for the strikethrough of text (there are discussions of this at the WP:BAN talkpage and WP:ANI so I removed those strikes.--Isotope23 14:26, 19 July 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, any of his obvious unwashed socks can be reported for immediate blocking. If he continues to use a dynamic IP for socking, it might be a good idea to keep a list of the IPs on a usersubpage... Range blocking could be explored if he continues to sock.--Isotope23 14:37, 19 July 2007 (UTC)

Yes, which is why a WP:DENY of his edits is warrented. Any VZ IP edits to the articles he's shown a past interest in or related to his baseball interests can be reverted with a clear comment that this is likely the work of a block evading sock of Tecmobowl, regardless of the merit of said edit. From the point of his block forward he isn't allowed to edit here and his edits to articles are subject to be boldly undone.--Isotope23 15:31, 19 July 2007 (UTC)

THis looks like the 'don't undo strikeout reversions' section. I dropped your comment at the professional baseball page. I understand you wre trying to explain, but it came off as something between a 'gotcha!' sort of embarrassment post, and a trolling post to make tecmo react. The policy debates on AN/I are thoroughly outside the scope of that talk page anyways, so why use it to irritate Tecmo and cause more trouble? ThuranX 15:36, 19 July 2007 (UTC)

Look familiar?

Special:Contributions/Ragefd look familiar? You've followed the drama more closely than I. —Wknight94 (talk) 02:33, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

Well, Tecmo did claim to have collected baseball cards since he was five years old and therefore was an expert. IrishGuy 23:47, 21 July 2007 (UTC)

3RR and dispute

Well, I remember reading about the "I have abandoned Misplaced Pages" line, and, to tell you the truth, the unfair block I got almost got me pissed off enough to leave here also. First off, and this is relating to me, I got warned about 3RR. But I didn't violate it again after that. However, I got blocked anyway. HOW THE HELL CAN YOU DO THAT? IT'S SO FREAKING UNFAIR! I even talked to Ksy92003 via e-mail regarding the issue. I was that close to actually saying the hell with this place. You guys are so freakin lucky to still have me around here. Same with you, you make this place a whole lot better.

As for Ragefd, based on his contributions, what makes you think he is Tecmobowl? I'm not deriding you, it's just the evidence, other than being new here, doesn't suggest that he's Tecmo... yet. Soxrock 11:06, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

REJOICE MY FRIEND

PASCAK AND HIS BUDDY JOEIDAHO WERE INDEFINITELY BLOCKED! WE'RE SAVED... for now. Either way, rejoice my friend, rejoice! Soxrock 17:42, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

And have you seen my message sent from earlier today, right above this one. I'm really wondering about the suspected Tecmobowl sock, again. Thanks Soxrock 17:46, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

Ok, I see. I only started following the Tecmo controversy, so I didn't see how it would be Tecmo. Eitherway, I see what you mean. I'll watch it too. Soxrock 17:52, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

I'm starting to suspect Gmh224 and Jjj222 are the same user... Pascack. Two user names created today, after Pascack's 192.*.*.* IP was unblocked - taking on his anti-Yankees/pro-Mets agenda, starting with Joe Girardi this morning. Mghabmw 22:46, 21 July 2007 (UTC)

Yankee Doodle

Hi BB,

I added a parodic version of the Yankee Doodle song and you deleted it. I was wondering why. Thx, Weiande

Socks

Sorry, I removed the notice but will put back up if it is proven he is Tecmo. Soxrock 18:50, 21 July 2007 (UTC)

Keith Hernandez

I've noticed your contributions to a ton of baseball pages so I thought I'd ask your opinion before I made a change myself. Do you identify Keith Hernandez more with the Mets or the Cardinals? I noticed he had Cardinal colors on his page, but I tend to think of him more as a Met since he was the team captain on the dominant 1980's Mets, the Seinfeld episode, and he has been a Mets TV Analyst for years. He also ended his tenure with St. Louis on a pretty sour note. I'll defer to you, but thought I'd ask.

But who then makes the decisions on the colors of the retired non-Hall of Famers? Someone must make the decision, I am new to Misplaced Pages so not sure how this works.

No colors on retired players. HoF - go by cap if anything. Baseball Bugs 19:25, 21 July 2007 (UTC)

In theory, I'd agree with you, but on wikipedia, it appears that every retired player has colors in his box. Who is the user that makes those decisions and how is it changed? I just created my account today and don't want to make major changes before I am established. Gmh224 19:32, 21 July 2007 (UTC)

Thanks

Socks

Hey Bugs, can you direct me to this person? I don't know who you're talking about when it came to the "whose edit pattern and comments were definitely Tecmo...". Thanks Soxrock 01:26, 22 July 2007 (UTC)

Oh jeez, is he that stupid? He's got to avoid Baseball articles. However, comparing the two, isn't the one Tecmo edited better? I mean, that version did have an infobox and more text. Soxrock 11:49, 22 July 2007 (UTC)

Ok. I did think they they were an improvement. That's why I ask. Soxrock 15:22, 22 July 2007 (UTC)

Who's Who on third

just funnin'! LessHeard vanU 10:01, 22 July 2007 (UTC)

I take it back. He's not chinless and spineless. The picture clearly shows he has a chin. Baseball Bugs 10:14, 22 July 2007 (UTC)

IP complaints

"Personally, I ignore complaints made by IP addresses. But I'll let Mr. Epeefleche give you his own opinion on that. 0:) Baseball Bugs 16:03, 20 July 2007 (UTC)"

Yes, I'm awfully sorry that I'm IP address scum. Please let me kill myself to make it up to you... :p Just kidding - Please don't bite and be nice. Even if someone is only a IP user, this makes him worth no more or no less that yourself - and who knows, he might even be "normal" contributer who did just not long in due to forgetfullness or an attempt for a wikibreak. 84.145.247.165 18:28, 22 July 2007 (UTC)
