Category talk:Blocked users

Is this category ever used? If not we should start using it. Anybody willing to take care of it?Knife (talk) 20:05, 20 March 2007 (EDT)

Should this category include users who where blocked in the past but are not currently? User:Gofer

Currently blocked users, I guess.Knife (talk) 20:28, 20 March 2007 (EDT)

Only sysops can tag them.-- Aipom --

Currently blocked users go in this category. This does not apply to trolls/users blocked indefinitely. Only for temporary blocks. Phoenix Rider

Well, according to the example it can be used on users that have been blocked infinitely.Knife (talk) 21:27, 20 March 2007 (EDT)

Yes, it can, but there's really no point, since they most likely won't come back. Phoenix Rider 16:53, 22 March 2007 (EDT)

I'm considering deleting this, due in no small part to the fact that we never use the tag/template.Saudy^Talk!

The block template places the account in question on this list, however, it isn't being used (the template nor this list). That said, we currently only have two people that this applies to and that will change in due time. I will give this matter some time, but I think a delete would be best. -- Chris 03:00, 7 June 2007 (EDT)

Theres WAYYY more people blocked than this... Should we remove it? Or, add this template to all the blocked users? Super-Yoshi^{Talk? C???}

What is this link supposed to mean? I will help re-do this link if anyone wants me to. --Tatlolou 18:02, 11 November 2008 (EST)tatlolou

Shouldnt this category be "Blocked Users"? Other categories are capitalized that way. --™ The 'Shroom 11:29, 12 December 2009 (EST)

Yeah, it should. Fawfulfury65

A Word about Sockpuppetry

So the other day, I was talking with my friend, RosalinaIsMyTrueLove. And he said that you had banned him from the Wiki for Sockpuppetry.

First off, he was helping our friend, Rosalina'sSoulMate because SHE had been banned from the wiki and didn't want those warnings all over her talk page. So I think you should undo the block for RosalinaIsMyTrueLove.

Secondly, I want to make a point about Super Mario Wiki and sockpuppetry. On Wikipedia and other Wikis, even if you aren't a member, you can still edit the wiki and make some constructive changes to it. Here, though, without an account, you're hosed. So that's why a person creates an account, to be constructive. But when a person keeps making changes that are then undone, they get angry with the Wiki (Rosalina'sSoulMate was talking to me about this) and then they get bitter and resentful towards the users. I mean, if you keep trying to build a block tower and your friend keeps knocking it down, you're not going to be happy about that and you're going to be angry with them. And when people are blocked from the Wiki, they're not going to wait the (insert length of time here) for their account to be unblocked; they're going to make another account because the account creation block wears off after awhile. So sockpuppetry is just their way of saying 'I want to help you.' (or at least with Rosalina'sSoulMate). Now, some people DO deserve to be blocked for sockpuppetry like spammers, but I don't think people with similar names should be blocked or people who just like adding trivia or people who are fed up with the other users.

And if I get blocked for writing such a valid point, I shall make a YouTube video explaining the evils behind the scenes of this Wiki. Consider it. ~Why Bother

alright what i got from that was your friend tried to evade a ban by getting a new account. also your point is invalid since there is no reason to have more than one account unless you lose your first one Goomba's Shoe15 (talk)

How come it stil says he's blocked? Why Bother (talk)
