User talk:Menu5



March 2008
This account has been blocked indefinitely from editing Wikipedia, because of concerns that the chosen username may not meet our username policy.


 * This is often not a reflection on the user, and you are encouraged to choose a new account name which does meet our guidelines and are invited to contribute to Wikipedia under an appropriate username. If you feel this block was made in error, you may quickly and easily appeal it - see below.

Our username policy provides guidance on selecting your username. In brief, usernames should not be offensive, disruptive, promotional, related to a 'real-world' group or organization, confusing, or misleading.

If you have already made edits and wish to keep your existing contributions under a new name you may request a change in username which is quick and easy. To do so, please follow these directions:
 * Add    This is possible because even when you are blocked, you can still edit your own talk page.
 * At an administrator's discretion, you may be unblocked for 24 hours to file a request.
 * Please note, you may only request a name that is not already in use. The account is created upon acceptance – do not try to create the new account before making the request for a name change since we can far easier allocate your new name to you, if it is not yet used. For more information, please visit Changing username.

Last, the automated software systems that prevent vandalism may have been activated, which can cause new account creation to be blocked also. If you have not acted in a deliberately inappropriate manner, please let us know if this happens, and we will deactivate the block as soon as possible. You may also appeal this username block by adding the text    or emailing the administrator who blocked you. What am I supposed to paste? And come on, couldn't you have just given me a message to pick a different user name? I wasn't doing anything wrong. I'm sure you lose a lot of valuable contributors this way.

Hello?

Can someone help me change my name? Please?
 * I left the blocking admin a note since I can't see anything inappropriate with your username. Awkward length yes, blockable no. --S ABER E XCALIBUR! 07:41, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

As well as that why not click on the link for changing your username that's how I did it.  Chubbennaitor   (leave me a message!)  07:47, 2 March 2008 (UTC)


 * I can't edit that page.
 * Follow the instructions on change in username and follow instructions. It will work. Oh and welcome, I'm new (22 days).  Chubbennaitor   (leave me a message!)  07:54, 2 March 2008 (UTC)
 * No it will not because he is blocked from editing any other page than this one. --S ABER E XCALIBUR! 07:55, 2 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Ah forgot about that. That's a bit unfair. He might be blocked because somene else has a similar name but I can't remember who.  Chubbennaitor   (leave me a message!)  08:00, 2 March 2008 (UTC)
 * No, he was blocked because his username is confusing. --S ABER  E XCALIBUR! 08:02, 2 March 2008 (UTC)


 * I've had a thought. Do what the blue box tells you. Copy the template onto your talk page then quickly change your name. Otherwise I'm out of ideas and a bit upset about the reason you were blocked.  Chubbennaitor   (leave me a message!)  08:06, 2 March 2008 (UTC)
 * He already did. That's what the unblock request is there for. D'oh. --S ABER E XCALIBUR! 08:07, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

What's your name now.  Chubbennaitor   (leave me a message!)  08:17, 2 March 2008 (UTC)
