User talk:Korax1214/Unblocked

'' This is an archive page showing the last version of my talk page when I was finally unblocked after being blocked for several hours (false positive). It is an historical document and for this reason must not be further edited. Thank you. ''


 * Note to reviewing admin: this user is believe to be a sockpuppet of temporarily blocked User:CanuckAnthropologist. ANI thread. Trebor (talk) 17:36, 8 June 2008 (UTC)
 * More nonsense. How can I possibly be a sockpuppet of a Canadian user when my IP clearly belongs to a UK ISP?  Don't you people even know how to use WHOIS? -- 217.171.129.71 (talk) 20:54, 8 June 2008 (UTC)
 * I've heard there are one or two Canadians living in London. Gwen Gale (talk) 01:31, 9 June 2008 (UTC)


 * Ref. the above, a bit of digging into the contribs pages turns up [this] edit by User:CanuckAnthropologist, done less than an hour before [this] edit by User:Korax1214, and if (as I suspect) the former turns out to have been done from a Canadian IP, this proves that this block was a false positive, unless perhaps one of these two has some means of transport which can go over 3,000 MPH. -- 217.171.129.74 (talk) 13:29, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
 * And comparing those two users' Contribs pages, it's clear that this block is a false positive in any case; User:Korax1214 goes back to 7 April 2007, and User:CanuckAnthropologist only to 23 April 2008; so although it's possible (just not true) that the latter is a sockpuppet of the former, the reverse is not possible (unless this user has a time machine as well as his superfast vehicle already mentioned). -- 217.171.129.74 (talk) 13:40, 9 June 2008 (UTC)


 * I've unblocked; the sockpuppetry conclusion is not well-supported here. Please be more cautious before making page moves in the future, especially on a large scale like that.  Mango juice talk 14:40, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
 * I still wonder why this editor first asked for the block to be shortened to 30 days? Gwen Gale (talk) 14:54, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
 * As I already said, it's because of medical problems causing me to behave in ways I normally wouldn't (blood glucose, for example, is known to radically affect mood). -- Korax1214 (talk) 15:05, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Self-requested blocks are almost never granted, the notion being that each editor is responsible for their edits and account. I'm ok for now with the notion that the timing of your edits was unlucky for everyone. As Mangojuice noted, please don't do things like big page moves before talking about it first with other editors. All the best, Gwen Gale (talk) 15:18, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
