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 spam the thread about your appeal, 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.)

You still haven't given us a reason to unban you aside from a "oh, it was someone else using my account", and if that is the case then you've admitted that your account is no-longer secure and so we have to lock it down anyway.

Thank you for at least responding to me. It is true that my brother made the edits in question. (It is also true that I have taken steps to make sure it will never happen again, on any site.)

The problem is that we only have your word that that is the case. It's very convenient to just be able to throw up your hands when you're suspended for repeatedly vandalising another user's troper page to insert random insults and claim "It wasn't me, it was totally my brother, honest".

It's an if, not a when. You also haven't given us a reason to unban you.

I don't know if there's any good reasons to unban me. I pretty sure i wont make any more arbitrary deletions now that i know that people are paying attention to what im doing.

"I won't do it again because I might get caught" isn't a very convincing reason to unban you. We need to be fairly confident that you know why what you did was damaging to the wiki.

Before this happened i didn't know that deleting a few examples would be such a bad thing considering how big the entire wiki is but now that this whole suspension thing happened i actually realise that it's something damaging.

Hi. As I stated in my last post, I can't get help at Ask The Tropers because whenever I go there, it simply notifies me of my suspension, and with regards to the discussion forums, I have absolutely no idea what to do since I've almost never used them, except on a couple occasions. At this point, would it be good enough to simply give my word that I'll use better judgement with regards to editing swear words? I'll really try to only do it if it really seems out-of-place (although as I stated, everyone obviously has a different opinion about what's considered "out-of-place"). And if I unintentionally end up making the odd edit that qualifies as Bluenose Bowdlerizing, can't someone higher up just let me know and change it back? It really won't be a major problem anymore since I can promise that I won't just make a bunch of edits to all the words I see on a single page again. If anything, it might just happen once in awhile, and in cases that are probably much more subjective. As long as someone reminds me when it's appropriate or not, I'm sure I will continue to only understand this site's standards all the better. I would really appreciate the opportunity to edit again. Hope to hear from someone soon!

I thought the page as written fit a Franchise/ description rather than the Radio/ namespace it was at. I had meant to write a page about the radio show only and split off the other adaptations accordingly. I goofed. It won't happen again.

Ok, that was kind of what we thought might have happened — that it was a split effort that went awry. Edit reasons are your friend — if there had been one, we would have known what you meant to do, instead of only what had been done.

Block lifted.

What false information did I put and what's the real information on pages I edited? I promise not to do that again.

There is no evidence that Fox has gotten the rights to the Olympics, that Time Warner has purchased Hasbro or that Disney affiliate ABC will be airing Nickelodeon content. None. There is an article on Deviant Art with some of that information, but that is not a reliable source.

If the information were true it still isn't the kind of stuff we host here. The wiki is about tropes in fiction.

Hi.

I'm not going to try to excuse why I am here. I let my feud with another troper get the best of me and now I am paying for it. I would like to work with you all in order to get this suspension lifted and avoid my coming here in the future.

I've deleted the Javascript blocker I have, and will not be reinstalling it.

What happened? I think I got reported by Machine Man 1992 for bothering him. If so, I'm sorry (I kinda doubt it though, he could have just blocked me and we'd be done with the whole silly thing).

If I'm getting suspended I'd really like to know why. Haven't made any offensive posts aside from differing opinion.

If the above poster is bothering anyone about me, I apologize. I did NOT tell him to do so. I barely know this guy.

Nope. You got suspended for your attitude regarding the dust-up in the Xbox One thread. You didn't even get thumped in the thread, just told (in a general warning, along with the others who were bickering) to knock it off, then escalated it with me via off-forum messages. And you're about to be blocked completely for being Moe Dantes, ban-evading.

Is this the place where you should when you get forum banned, or is that another thread? Cause the wording of the title seems to say only edit bans, but people are talking about forum bans...

[up]Also, sorry for pming you. IMDB is the place where you PM the mods for bans.

Stop caring and embrace nullness.
