Scotch bonnet
It such a long time ago, I really don't know. I could not find anything on the image page, so, sorry, I am not sure if these are Scotch bonnet's or not. Happy editing -- Chris 73 | Talk 07:40, 25 January 2006 (UTC)

They're definitely not here to contribute constructively, are there? I've blocked indefinitely as a vandal only account. Thanks for the head's up! Natalie 11:04, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

Inkompetenz
Wer eine IP als "Sockenpuppe" bezeichnet und Richtigstellungen unterdrückt (indem er diese löscht und den Autor sperrt), beweist nur, dass er (a) inkompetent ist, und (b), dass er einen sehr schlechten Charakter besitzt.

Translation:

A person who calls an IP a "sockpuppet" and who suppresses corrections (by removing them and banning the author), just proves that he (a) lacks competence, and (b) has a very bad character. (Note: Zinnman is an administrator/manipulator of the German language Wiki which promotes antisemitism - the whitewashing of biographies of well-known nazis)  --89.55.5.135 08:27, 2 August 2007 (UTC)


 * You're indefinetely blocked on de: for repeated violation of wikiquette. Circumventing that block equals to sock puppeting. --Zinnmann 20:21, 2 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Your English appears to be very bad. A sockpuppet is an "additional account created by an existing member of an Internet community". BTW, did you harass the Wikinfo page today? It can easily be proven that friends of GNU1742 are committing illegal acts according to German law on Wikinfo since June (we have history files, too, and one person has identified himself). So, why do you help these people by removing information on these acts from the German Wikipedia? BTW, I didn't violate the wikiquette on the German wikipedia as you pretend. I was blocked because you have very incompetent admins whose only goal is greediness for power. But whenever a user complains on your behavior (and proves how your admins violate their own "wikiquette" rules), these users are blocked. The German language internet is full of reports of your manipulations. Finally, it's rather weird that you actually told me to create a new account to circumvent the blocking of the German article on "mancala" for IPs, what I, howevever, didn't do. The article was half-blocked to "prevent a person non grata" (i was meant) to work on it (at this time my account wasn't even blocked) - so this was clearly a personal attack, which you promote now. You seem to be very confused. - --89.55.71.119 08:11, 3 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Sorry, my English's too bad to understand your lament. Please look for an other playground. --Zinnmann 23:21, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

The Chaosphere
I believe this paragraph from Liber Null makes it clear the Chaosphere represents the core, the source and main axiom within Chaos Magic e.g. it's central symbol: The Chaosphere is the prime radiant or magic lamp of the adept - a psychic singularity which emitteth the brilhant [sic] darkness. It is a purposely created crack in the fabric of reality through which the stuff of Chaos enters our dimension. Alternatively, it may be considered as a demonstration of the axiom that belief has the power to structure reality. The same chapter describes its shape by using the words sphere and cube, both three-dimensional shapes. Modanung (talk) 11:58, 8 June 2018 (UTC)

Range blocking 92.77
Hi. Tried at de.wikipedia.org to "Benutzerkonto erstellen". But got blocked. Don't know how to complain about it there, so i write here Continue in german.

1. Wieso werde ICH blockiert? 2. Wie könnte ich in de... auf den Fehler hinweisen? 3. Ist Bereiche blocken nicht etwas heftig?

Gruss. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.77.78.108 (talk) 08:09, 5 August 2020 (UTC)


 * Ja, Range-Blocks sind heftig, aber manchmal nicht zu vermeiden. Den Bereich habe ich nach dieser Vandalismusmeldung gesperrt. Vorausgegangen waren mehrere wirre Beiträge im COVID-19-Umfeld. In dieser Range gibt es leider seit etwas über einem Jahr wiederholt Probleme mit einem (oder mehreren?) Nutzer(n), so dass es bereits wiederholt zu Bereichssperren kam. Vgl. hier.


 * Ich habe die Sperre jetzt etwas schärfer eingegrenzt, behalte den Bereich aber im Auge. Falls Du an längerfristiger Mitarbeit interessiert bist, solltest Du vielleicht über eine Anmeldung nachdenken. Viele Grüße --Zinnmann (talk) 08:46, 5 August 2020 (UTC)
