'''== Gwernol, I apologize to you and the Wikipedia community. I looked on the rules and did not see that placing links was against the rules (though it obviously should be). I thought i was just being a creative thinker in using wikipedia for links and figured it would be a rule soon after i began doing it. I just made my account and already got it blocked even tho i've been using Wikipedia for awhile and i just wanted to know if i could be un-blocked, you won't find me spamming again. Well, i hope you consider the request, sorry for not seeing the warnings. Take care. =='''


 * Normal practice is to leave specific warnings here on your talk page before blocking. However this was a particularly egregious case as you were:


 * Using Wikipedia to advertize an obvious commercial venture
 * Doing so on articles and on user's talk pages (particularly nasty personal spam)
 * Doing so incorrectly by inserting a malformed link into the middle of article text
 * Doing so to multiple pages, rapidly, with no sign that you intended to stop


 * Wikipedia has very clear rules against WP:SPAM. Given that this is an encyclopedia and not an advertising space or personal noticeboard, I'm not surprised you expected this would be against the rules. It is. And yet you decided to go ahead and do it anyway. In other words you were deliberately spamming and knew it was wrong. As far as I am concerned spammers are the bane of the Internet and should not be tolerated in any arena, let alone on Wikipedia.


 * I won't at this time unblock you. The block is temporary though and once it expires you may return to editing Wikipedia. Gwernol 21:35, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
