Peter S Strempel's talk page

Please don't split conversations: if we start here, stay here, if we start somewhere else, let's keep it there. It's too busy a place to keep tabs on everything, everywhere, all the time. You can always post a talkback notice here to let me know of updates elsewhere.

Request reason:

Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. The IP address belongs to a VPN provider. Why ban me after I have logged in with the proper credentials, no matter what my IP address is. This practice strikes me as technophobe vandalism rather than defensible administrative practice. A good way to keep people away from Wikipedia, too. I'd almost forgotten why I stopped coming here. You people make Franz Kafka seem like an optimist.

Decline reason:

I see you were able to edit your User page after making this request, which means you are currently not affected by an IP address block. If you are subsequently unable to edit again, we'll need your IP address to investigate the block. If you are concerned about providing this publicly, you can use WP:UTRS. If you don't know how to find your IP address, we are happy to explain how. Yamla (talk) 11:10, 7 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.
