User talk:122.161.72.187

I have never been blocked or prevented from editing Wikipedia in any way before as an anonymous editor. If I were aware of the enormous headache and complications that it could cause, I would've made sure to create an account in the first place. Never having been blocked for any reason before, I was extremely surprised to see that you had blocked me for block evasion. After my IP address (which at the time was 122.161.65.166) was blocked, I requested an unblock on the grounds that the block by you was the very first time I had been blocked so I could not have been evading a block that was already in place. My request was declined on the grounds that my IP address was one of a range which had been blocked and the administrators could not be sure who was sitting behind the keyboard, so my best option was to request an account from the WP:ACC page so I could avoid being affected by blocks meant for other users. I requested an account and waited because the guidelines for requesting an account had stated that it could take 2-3 days for the request to be approved. On the third day (today), I was trying to check the progress on my account request when I found that there was a large volume of account requests and processing mine could take up to 6 months i.e. longer than it would take your 5-month block to expire. I tried to edit my talk page but found my IP address had changed to 122.161.72.187, which was still part of the range of IP addresses that had been blocked by you. I want to clarify that I am not trying to evade any blocks - it seems my IP address is changing on its own due to the actions of my internet service provider. I want to reiterate that I have no malignant intentions - as I said before, I have never been blocked before, and some of my edits have either been left unchanged or improved and expanded on, which leads me to believe I have made generally positive and productive contributions to Wikipedia. I am not trying to evade blocks. I am simply attempting to find a way out of this situation in which I have been blocked despite not having done anything wrong, but I don't know what to do. Would you be willing to take a request for a partial unblock, just so I can create an account? If requesting an account would take more time than it would take for your block to expire, I do hope that could be enough reason to allow me to be able to create an account, especially since I seem to have been affected by the blocking of a range of IP addresses and I myself have not done anything to warrant a block.
