Please understand we had to block your ISP and several others to stop the Cplot sockpuppets. Dmcdevit has shown a willingness to shutdown the entire Wikipedia project to stop Cplot, if necessary. If you want to learn more about why it was necessary to block your ISP, you can see learn more about the Cplot sockpuppets.at the administrator's noticeboard. This is one of the more severe blocks for Cplot sockpuppets. Dmcdevit has been the most diligent in trying to stop the sockpuppets with these blocks: a large corporate network, T-Mobile, SprintPCS, SprintPCS, T-Mobile Hotspots, T-Mobile Hotspots, Over 9,000 T-Mobile Hotspots share these few IPs. These are nothing like open proxies, because tmobile knows precisely who connects through their networks. However, you can see from the severe damage the Cplot sockpuppets have brought to Wikipedia why we have to block yours and other’s ISPs.. A group of T-Mobile based Wikipedia editors tried to raise awareness about this issue, but it's been suppressed by a lot of admins (not sure why). Everyone who chose SprintPCS as their ISP was completely blocked by those two SprintPCS blocks. Essjay blocked another WiFi hotspot for six moths to stop Cplot sockpuppets. Centrx also blocked another IP for three years (it's not really an openproxy and Centrx knows that, but I think Centrx feels it's useful as retaliation against Cplot) to get back at the Cplot sockpuppets. Naconkantari blocked this IP for one year also to stop a Cplot sockpuppet. The Cplot sockpuppets may bring about the end of civilian editing at Wikipedia. None of this seems to have slowed down the Cplot sockpuppets yet, but if the administrators and checkuser sysops remain diligent, I think we'll eventually get them. I hope this helps you understand the pressing need for Wikipedia to block you from editing under these circumstances. Though these sysops seem like juveniles, these are paid professionals working for the agency to keep those like Cplot out. Please bear with us in protecting Wikipedia from those like Cplot. --TheGreatWhiteWails 03:32, 12 January 2007 (UTC)


 * I forgot to add that we have kept you blocked from editing in the range 70.8.0.0/16. This is again necessary to keep Cplot out. If you find yourself connected to any of the IPs in that range, please disconnect and reconnect in another range (this may take multiple attempts). Obviously, Cplot could do the same thing, but we don't think a vandal will figure that out. --TheGreatWhiteWails 04:34, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
