User talk:109.76.69.168

Hey dude, sorry to bother you but CAT:RFU looks fairly backlogged so I wonder if you could take a look at my unblock request when you get a chance? Cheers 109.76.69.168 (talk) 20:55, 10 January 2021 (UTC)
 * This is a range block against a fairly prolific long-term abuse editor on the same ISP. If you register an account from another IP, such as from your phone, a cafe, Library, etc, you'll be able to edit when logged in. -- ferret (talk) 21:00, 10 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Thanks very much for getting back to me and explaining. I had an (admin, good standing) account but can't remember the password and don't want to create a sock just make a few casual edits. Is there any way I can get off the LTA editor's range without having to buy an exclusive IP address? Cheers 109.76.69.168 (talk) 21:10, 10 January 2021 (UTC)
 * The only articlespace edit from this IP is a good faith one from me, and looking at Special:Contributions/93.107.0.0/19, most of the recent edits from that address look in good faith at first glance, is there a possibility these rangeblocks might be overly broad? Thanks 109.76.69.168 (talk) 21:15, 10 January 2021 (UTC)
 * If you simply cannot remember your old account, it's fine to create a new one, and just note on your userpage you had a previous account but cannot remember. Socking is deliberate attempt to abuse multiple accounts and evade scrutiny. There's plenty of valid reasons to have multiple accounts. A great deal of thought went into this range block and it wasn't done lightly. The LTA operates throughout this ISP, unfortunately. I may yet need to block more ranges but I have tried to limit to the ones with the highest LTA activity and lowest constructive edits. I am actively monitoring at least 3 more ranges that remain unblocked. -- ferret (talk) 21:42, 10 January 2021 (UTC)
 * That's fair enough, thank you for your time and consideration! 109.76.69.168 (talk) 21:58, 10 January 2021 (UTC)
