February 2018: and a bit more
Line 1,509:
: The thread in question is obviously the one that should be reviewed, particularly the comment from the thread opener about emailing the above editor. And as per [[WP:CANVASS]], contacting other editors based on their previously established opinions, presumably about individuals as well as topics, is considered disruptive. Having said that, I had and have no particular reservations about the specific comments made by the above editor in that discussion, and actually tried to complement and thank him on his user talk page for his comments, although I am not sure those comments were taken in the spirit they were given.

::There's a lot of dishonesty in JC's unblock request and this comment, but in the interest of not starting a huge debate, I will limit myself to pointing out that JC was blocked for tendentiously and repeatedly violating his IBAN despite multiple warnings, and now JC's unblock request consists entirely of an obliquely worded series of accusations against the subject of that IBAN. A clear head might note the irony in that. <span style="text-shadow:grey 0.118em 0.118em 0.118em; class=texhtml">[[User:MjolnirPants|<font color="green">'''ᛗᛁᛟᛚᚾᛁᚱPants'''</font>]] [[User_talk:MjolnirPants|<small>Tell me all about it.</small>]]</span> 04:25, 27 February 2018 (UTC)
::The obfuscation and dishonesty is more from you than for from me. The thread which resulted in this block, on Beeblebrox's talk page, referred to only two alleged interactions, one on the WikiProject Bible talk page where I responded to a comment with a bit more data than Hijiri88, and one in which I started a thread about the use of the word verses in an article on the Bible. I believe it would be in the interests of the reviewer to review MJ's previous attempts to use this talk page as a venue for preaching to me, which he has never denied, which led to my having to tell him not to come to this page to preach to me, to which for whatever reason of ego he felt obliged to respond, after I had archived the thread, with a picture of Carl Sagan and a comment that he sees himself as some sort of new Sagan. In light of his having taken on presenting the other side here, possibly because Hijiri88 is subject to a 30 day block by prior ruling if he ever posts here again, I guess I am now obliged to '''formally request MjolnorPants under any identification to not post on this page again.''' I personally believe the reviewing admin will probably display a better grasp of the details of the i-ban and other relevant behavior guidelines involved than the blocking admin did in a rather obviously rushed judgment. And, I guess, if whoever sees this thinks that the issue is too complicated maybe to decide here, I would have no objections to having the matter reviewed at a noticeboard,with I guess an indication of such here so that I might be able to have some input. But I do tend to be much less active and likely to look Thursdays thru Saturdays. [[User:John Carter|John Carter]] ([[User talk:John Carter#top|talk]]) 22:03, 27 February 2018 (UTC)
