:::You need to learn to read before you reply and make wild endorsements. Rugendow didn’t say there hasn’t been any disruption from that range. The point-which you missed completely-is that it’s an '''enormous''' range, blocking countless editors who never did anything wrong and countless new would be editors who gave up trying. You said you endorse the block because of the history of disruption. By your logic we should block all IP’s for a long history of disruption because again you have blocked way more than 1 person.

Hello,

The IP who keeps coming back to my talk page has now emailed me and also left me a message over at Commons. Fun!

My intent with being kind at the initial talk page was to AGF and help a new user understand our policies and guidelines and perhaps become a productive contributor. Perhaps they have trouble with understanding social cues; perhaps they were young; perhaps they were blinded by their sense of righteousness. I have been all of those things at one time or another.

I knew that there was a chance that they were a troll or irredeemably attached to a complete sentence being on ] about it being in the West Central region of Florida; I went over there to see if their (admittedly, sourced) opinions were being respected. They were, just not their desire to add the sentence to the end of the paragraph. (Check the diffs, it's almost comical!)

Between them making the request and me actually checking out the article, all this crazy stuff happened, including the ECPing of my talk page. Who knew that could happen? Who would've thought that my talk page would be protected because of someone else being disruptive and not me?

Anyway, what are my next steps? I'm kind of tired of this user contacting me. My instincts tell me to leave a message saying that I won't do the edits; I'm going to do that because I want a clean conscience, but let me know if I should do anything else.

About your block of 173.197.192.0/18

Thanks for that; now I don't need to ask for a rangeblock at AIV.   –Skywatcher68 (talk) 19:47, 9 December 2024 (UTC)

Um, hello??

You blocked a /40 for 3 years. Seriously?? Please read User:TonyBallioni/Just block the /64. Look at Special:Contributions/2600:1007:B100:0:0:0:0:0/40 and you see that youve blocked editors literally all over the United States. Like for real. Fix this. Cheers. Rugendow (talk) 01:38, 10 December 2024 (UTC)

@Rugendow Have you looked at the contribs for this range? Have you looked at their block log? The history of disruption within that range goes back years, and it is pervasive. This is not the first block. It is not the second. It is the sixth. I Endorse the block. -Ad Orientem (talk) 04:25, 10 December 2024 (UTC)

Hello,

The IP who keeps coming back to my talk page has now emailed me and also left me a message over at Commons. Fun!

My intent with being kind at the initial talk page was to AGF and help a new user understand our policies and guidelines and perhaps become a productive contributor. Perhaps they have trouble with understanding social cues; perhaps they were young; perhaps they were blinded by their sense of righteousness. I have been all of those things at one time or another.

I knew that there was a chance that they were a troll or irredeemably attached to a complete sentence being on Pinellas County, Florida about it being in the West Central region of Florida; I went over there to see if their (admittedly, sourced) opinions were being respected. They were, just not their desire to add the sentence to the end of the paragraph. (Check the diffs, it's almost comical!)

Between them making the request and me actually checking out the article, all this crazy stuff happened, including the ECPing of my talk page. Who knew that could happen? Who would've thought that my talk page would be protected because of someone else being disruptive and not me?

Anyway, what are my next steps? I'm kind of tired of this user contacting me. My instincts tell me to leave a message saying that I won't do the edits; I'm going to do that because I want a clean conscience, but let me know if I should do anything else.
