in accordance with Wikipedia's blocking policy for. Please stop. You are welcome to make useful contributions after the block expires. If you believe this block is unjustified you may contest this block by adding the text below. Per a complaint at WP:AN3. See the previous unblock discussion less than two weeks ago, in which you participated. Tiptoety said, I am willing to unblock if you agree to no longer edit war at all, not just on the page in question. It appears that you agreed. EdJohnston (talk) 17:46, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

Reply to offer. I would accept the 1RR on all the pages on wikipedia immediately, were the block lifted to match my words. I did attempt to enter into conversation on this one, all I can say is that sometimes you do meet those who you have wronged and they will not be quick to want to talk to you. 1RR is fine with me as long as I can edit once again.

Sorry, my counter offer was to adhere to the 1RR with an immediate lift. I really don't see a reduction of five days as a good enough offer to cover all of wikipedia, regardless of my knowledge that I have to be more careful when dealing with people such as jeff79 who I have obviously offended through sock-puppetry. I will aim to do so, as evidenced in part by my crime; I followed procedure and protocol up until his refusal to come to the table, acknowledge me, and openly deride me. I lost my cool. Solution is to steer clear of this character. I will become attempt to associate myself with all the programs and facilities out there to deal with these types of situations, and the end result will be the end to edit warring on my part. I am however not willing to have a 1RR in place for the sake of 5 days when it comes to vandals creating havoc on pages, and ip's having their nuisance value. I am ready to rock and roll, 1RR from now, not a few days in the future. Londo 06  19:44, 3 November 2008 (UTC)


 * It is either 5 days and 1 RR or 10 days, I was going to decline the unblock request as other admins had done, but felt like giving another chance, apparently I was mistaken.  MBisanz  talk 19:47, 3 November 2008 (UTC)
 * It's not a case of me of supporting edit warring. I welcome the chance, but TBH it seems like I am giving away an awful lot for something I plan to do anyway in refusing to get drawn into edit warring, and secondly I seem to lose out when it comes to vandals and nuisance ip editors. I honestly appreciate the offer and the spirit in which it was given. Unfortunately with situations such as those detailed above I believe I would be put in an extremely precarious position for the sake of a few days. As stated earlier the best thing for self-control is to avoid characters who I have sinned against in the past, and follow protocol through to its conclusion for the rest of the human population. Many thanks for the offer, but at this time and the current terms I shall have to decline. Londo  06  19:59, 3 November 2008 (UTC)

To any adminstrators. I am willing to commit to the 1RR rule for 6 months offered by MBisanz. Londo 06  17:30, 9 November 2008 (UTC)
