Request reason:

I admit, i was a total sockpuppet when i was younger. Its a year later from that now, and i really want to help correct mistakes in my spare time on wikipedia using this account, since its the nickname i use everywhere. I understand if i dont get unblocked.

Decline reason:

Please make the request from your original account. After that we can see about you using this one. עוד מישהו Od Mishehu 13:36, 18 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]


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.

Request reason:

Ok responding to last message about the unblock request this is my original account, if that helps or not

Decline reason:

Seems as though there's some confusion here... a sockpuppet is what we call accounts that are being used inappropriately by users who already have other accounts. You were blocked by someone under the Loshgr account, then created this account some months later, which constitutes block evasion. Loshgr is your original account, as it was the first created and the first blocked. Hersfold (t/a/c) 20:46, 18 February 2009 (UTC) Ok so let me get this straight. Wikipedia is saying that this account is Loshgr's account used to evade block. This is really bugging me, and i didnt know what "sockpuppeting" meant at the time. All this is telling me is that i must have created this account at a shared i.p. location. I see your point in keeping me blocked. Where should i go from here to solve this problem? Thanks for the advice in advance. Boffinbox (talk) 18:59, 19 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It seems that Loshgr is also your account. Now, this account was created in September 2007; the other account was created in April 2007 - 5 months earlier. עוד מישהו Od Mishehu 15:26, 18 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I havent created that account, also i wouldnt try to block myself because if i really wanted this account back, i would have unblocked it by now if Loshgr was another account of mine. I usuaully have only 1 account for a particular website that requires an account. I can see why you would say this is another account of mine, since it was created in the same year Boffinbox (talk) 15:36, 18 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Wait a second i thought Loshgr was the one who blocked me. Now i know what sockpuppet means. I should have checked when i got initially blocked. Im sorry if none of this has helped
