Hi User:MaxSem, I am User:AHLM13. As I have a sent request to Unblock Review Team, you replied to me "Hello AHLM13,

For security purposes, we are unable to unblock compromised accounts. Unless you had a committed identity token in place prior to your block, we have no way to verify that any communications from this account are coming from the original account holder". I do not understand what should I do, that's why I am going to email with your personal email. Please discuss with me with your personal one. I am just going to sent an email. --2.96.191.132 (talk) 21:46, 15 May 2015 (UTC)
 * You could start by not evading your block - I've blocked this IP now. You could continue with a bit of honesty: this story about evil hackers continuously stealing your account is nowhere near believable. And if it's true, my response is the same: if you can't secure your account you shouldn't be editing Wikipedia. Also, please note that I'll not engage in a talk over private email as we have UTRS for that. Max Semenik (talk) 22:00, 15 May 2015 (UTC)

This may seem a little out of the blue and all...
Hello, Max, this is indef-blocked User:Doughnuthead speaking. I firmly believe I can finally be of positive use to Wikipedia, and I no longer feel the need to gain attention through malicious editing. I'd actually all but forgotten about all the nonsense i had caused in the previous years until i saw a funny picture online of a guy with a swollen head, which reminded me of my username. But more to the point, i realised that my ability to edit the talk page was barred. After taking a look at previous edits, i realised i was being a bit of a tube. You were right to take that ability away. So just a heads up that i can only edit on anon as this account is obviously still suspended. In terms of getting unblocked, i haven't made a single edit to Wikipedia in almost 3 years, and during this time i have matured enough to the point that i look back at what i was getting up to and think 'Oh god! Who was i even trying to impress?!' In terms of where i aim to get involved in on the website, I still hold a strong interest in football (soccer) related articles, along with hip-hop and old school rock related articles- hence my music taste. As it has been so long since I bothered to use the editing facility, I'll need re-shown how to work various parts of the site or whatever it's called. I only remembered how to request unblock by clicking on the 'edit' tab and noticing one of my old templates! Furthermore, I don't intend to be an overly active user on the site, as I begin my university course in September much of my time will be dedicated towards my studies, and so I intend to see Wikipedia as a hobby to input my thoughts and research every now and then. Finally, thank you very much for reading my request - I appreciate the time taken to do so and I apologise for my past behaviour. I was just a stupid kid (it lasted from age 12-15 if I recall!) and I hope to hear from you as soon as possible. If you're wondering how I came across you, you were involved in my ban years ago.--89.241.208.230 (talk) 13:50, 22 May 2015 (UTC)
 * I thought it was stated to you clearly that BASC is the way? Max Semenik (talk) 15:51, 22 May 2015 (UTC)

Thank you
Thanks very much for your understanding. That was just me thinking i was funny, i know how to handle myself on such a website now. Well i'll see you about, as i'm still learning the ins and outs of the wiki :) --TijuanaBandito (talk) 10:44, 24 May 2015 (UTC)
