unblock| My user name, which was blocked for being "either inappropriate or too similar to an existing username" is a reference to a TV show called Freaks and Geeks. More specifically, my user name is from a fictional Dungeons and Dragons character. I emailed the administrator who blocked me two days ago and have not heard back yet.

Unfortunately, the admin who blocked you thinks "Dwarf" is a potentially offensive word. Try to contact some other admin. Canderous Ordo 17:22, 17 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

In the interest of assuming good faith, I will contact the blocking administrator that so he may respond to this request. Can't sleep, clown will eat me 18:56, 17 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, you two. If it is really problematic, I will change it. I just want to reference my favorite TV show in the whole world is all. CarlosTheDwarf 01:41, 18 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I've unblocked you. Several administrators were questioning this block already, and I feel "dwarf" is not offensive to the degree that we need to ban it from usernames. Mangojuicetalk 17:04, 19 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you so much! I appreciate it. Oh and sorry if I sound dumb, but when does the block expire? Thanks again. CarlosTheDwarf 18:32, 19 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Ah, never mind. I can edit my user page now. Thanks again! CarlosTheDwarf 20:34, 19 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
