Edit banned/Suspended - would like to edit again.

Go To

This is the thread we use to talk things over with people who have received a suspension notice. A lot of the time the notice goes out just so we can explain how seriously we take certain things, not because we want the person to feel bad and go away.

If you're suspended, give What to Do If You Are Suspended a read, then post here to begin your appeal. We try to respond to appeals in order via batch posts every few days. If a moderator has responded to your appeal, you will receive a notification in your private messages, even if you're suspended from PMs.

The Forum Rules apply here.

Don'ts

  • Don't be rude. Rule 1 applies here, too.
  • Don't try to negotiate your suspension outside of this thread, such as by sending Private Messages to moderators or posting elsewhere. Such activity may be thumped or otherwise removed, and may warrant an additional suspension block if it keeps happening. All communications have to take place within this thread.
  • Don't respond to other suspended users. This is a place for you to discuss your suspension, not others'.
  • Don't post multiple times about your appeal if it hasn't been a few days since your last reply from us, since it makes it more difficult to compose responses. If you've posted, we're likely looking at it, and kindly request you to be more patient.
  • Don't make another account to try and get around your suspension. This is called ban evasion and will get you bounced. (Again, read What to Do If You Are Suspended if you don't know what these words mean.)

And therein lies the problem; you're in here for ownership issues; namely that you feel you can dictate the content of a page simply because it's for a work you created.

I admit it was a mistake on my part. I was just annoyed by what had happened. Like I said, no one personally had a problem with my edits until recently. I won't make the same mistake again if I'm giving a second chance.

Thank you for your explanation. You are right, a fourth bullet is usually a bad idea. I was, I guess, too hasty in my rush to edit and did not give adequate thought to the process, a mistake that I do not intend to repeat. I will make sure to reread the editing guidelines, in order to ensure that future edits are up to standards. Thank you again, Jameson

So, um... I'm guessing this is more for the reasons than for the edits themselves...

hi, just wondering why I was banned from posting?

I'm guessing it was the fact I ended up double editing a few articles due to messing up the first edit?

Coolman: I'm willing to give you a second chance. Remember, however, that the wiki is a collaborative effort and not personal space. When someone wishes to discuss an edit, it is customary to reply back.

Jameson: Once again, I recommend the Tips Worksheet, specifically natter, Repair Dont Respond and This Troper. Tell me if you understand them.

Sensei Le Roof: No matter how frustrated you are, "LEARN TO F*CKING SPELL" is not an aceptable edit reason.

Beige Paladin: You are very, very careless. Let me run through a few edits:

  • The last stand of ultramar is another awesome one. 100 Ultramarines, a full tyranid hive fleet and 24 hours of solid combat. When the last Ultramrine died, just as re-enforcements arived, the ground of the ultramrines fortress monesry was that thick with tyranid corpses that almost the entire complex was burried. Damn, say what you will about Ws love of the Ultramrines, that is badass.

Should be:

Your edits in Elephant in the Living Room [1] are natter and YMMV sinkholes. YMMV is not a trope and not something you should pothole. Examples Are Not Arguable.

  • Tomboy and Girly Girl Susuan and Nanase's freindship. Susan is a very conservative, femenist who is just getting over her issues with men. Nanase is prtty much the oposite in most ways. the two of them are good freinds, even if Susan didnt want to admit it for a long time.

Should be:

  • Tomboy and Girly Girl: Susuan and Nanase's freiiendship. Susan is a very conservative, femeinist who is just getting over her issues with men. Nanase is pretty much the opposite in most ways. The two of them are good freiiends, even if Susan didn't want to admit it for a long time.

    • Until he recently got made downright Adorkable with a crush on Magma

Examples Are Not Recent. They should never be written in a time frame. It won't be recent in two months, and someone will have to correct the entry.

In short, you make a lot of errors (spelling, potholes) that require others to clean up after you.

I'm sorry, I just was pulling a prank. But really, I want to edit again. Please. I won't put a Complete Monster in Sponge Bob Square Pants anymore. I really want to edit again. Please. I really do want to edit again. TV Tropes is just so fun I don't even know what i did to get banned? How can I edit again? Tropers I don't want to get banned, i just want to edit.

Allright, I read through my deleted edits. Understood some of them, but not all.

Sentry = Acknowledged, no exact examples given

Super-Speed = Acknowledged, should have just repaired.

YMMV The Ultimates = Half-acknowledged. Gave reasons, but didn't discuss it in the subpage-cleanup.

Superman = Not acknowledged. Otherwise Ultraman, Cyborg and Superboy-prime should also be deleted for zero-content.

Superlative Dubbing / German Dubs = Acknowledged, should have just deleted.

Mafia Cityof Lost Heaven = Not acknowledged. Where was I conversating?

YMMV The Clone Wars = Acknowledged.

The Clone Wars = Half-acknowledged. Not much explanation given, but I thought the further explanation on the *Character* section would be enough. Know it better know.

After taking a look at myself, I think I'm ready to try again with a better sense of restraint. It was rather stupid of me to get angry over little things.

@Sensei Le Roof: OK, we're willing to give you another chance. (You won't get a third one.) Just remember to be polite and reasonable.

If you feel angry or upset, don't edit or post. Instead, make yourself a cup of tea or something, watch something funny on You Tube and take a break. Come back when you feel better and calmer. Nothing good will come of posting or editing when angry or upset. It's usually just about as bad as editing or posting drunk.

You cut the entire section for season three from the DMOS page for MLP:FIM. That's large scale.

The facts that you have serious IP overlap with a poster who was banned for edit-warring on the same page, that you use a very similar name, and that you edit history parallels his almost exactly all indicate that your sockpuppet is not at all convincing.

Alright, Forenperser, sorry for the delay. Let me elaborate a bit:

Franchise.Superman: Zero Context Examples need to be either fleshed out or taken to the discussion page, as they are very poor and don't inform the reader.

VideoGame.Mafia The City Of Lost Heaven: You weren't, actually. The natter I deleted had been added by someone else. The problem here is Type Labels Are Not Examples. It is bad form to give "type x" examples, as they are both uninformative and require the reader to go back to the original page and memorize the types. That's why we try splitting them into subtropes or labeling them with something other than type numbers.

You did some good reading, so I'll lift the restriction. Happy troping! smile

Jameson: Be more carful from now on too, okay? I'll lift the suspension.

[up][up]We told you what to do to get your privileges back. I still haven't seen any attempt by you to do anything to help your case, except for your continued demands. That's not good enough, and I for one am not in the mood to keep talking to you when you're not listening. Your ban will not be lifted.

Goodbye.
