Three-revert rule

I see you are new to Wikipedia. The site has an overabundance of rules, policies, etc. and it's easy to get yourself into trouble accidentally. One of the rules is that you can't undo, or "revert," anyone else's changes more than three times in a day. This applies even if they aren't undoing the same material. The rules on this are quite complex and you should read Wikipedia:Edit warring in detail. Short Brigade Harvester Boris (talk) 15:45, 27 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Block notice

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 1 week for edit warring. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding below this notice the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.

During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. - Barek (talk • contribs) - 16:28, 27 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I am a bad person...I clearly, now understand what I did wrong. I will never, ever... do anything like this again. Seriously??? This is the current path to having a voice.

I took my lumps and didnt complain on the previous 60 hour block I recieved. I honestly, viewed the penalty as something of a growing pain that was maybe, a normal experience, for a new user. I didnt understand the lingo and process, clearly.

I thought that the emphasis of truth and being bold was important to Wiki. At the time, I didnt have as clear of an understanding of how this process is being gamed. Its crystal clear to me that the page editors who ever they people are, are too quick to react to complaints from the gamers. A complaint like """he's doing it again... Right after, he was banned for the same exact thing...OMG...The sky is falling...This jerk, is destroying everything. Kill him now. The reaction, is a 1 week ban, for me...

Appeasing the gamers of your system seems to be uncomfortable a norm. It obliterates and destroys any respect Wikipedia might feel it possibly deserves & enjoys. Contoversy issues are in my opinion your website's weakest subject matter, bar none. ((Flip-flop (politics)???))

Compare, Flip-flop politics date June 23, 2008 to the present version of 2012. It is clear that gaming and gamer issues are running the system. How can multiple years pass and there be no compareable difference in a Wiki page over a 4 year or more span of time? Over 1,500 days of an unremarkable change. Wrong, seems to be right in this Wikiworld. I attempted time and time again to clarify the existing information. I don't care about my reinstatement as much as I care about, reality and care of the public that view the information.
