 * Thank you for taking the time to clarify the situation, . You, as a person, are apparently currently blocked. The reason can be found at User talk:Boxstat. Please have a look at WP:AAB (guideline) and WP:GAB (explanatory supplement). I guess you may like to appeal your block already. If so, you'll need to clarify that you understand why you have been blocked, and that a block is no longer necessary. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 23:21, 2 October 2019 (UTC)

Basically what happened was I forgot I had a personal account. I started the Boxstat one and I think it got blocked but wasn't sure why so I'm assuming I must have started the Boxstat1 account. I can't actually remember. I did explain myself to one user and explained the confusion. I only use my personal account now but obviously can't delete the other accounts unless someone else can. I've explained why I thought editing dead links was ok, I'm guessing it seems its not unless I'm told differently. I have asked for advice previously but never received any messages and my account was unblocked so assumed my explanation was ok. Now it seems not.
