I have said this before, and I have said it again: I was new to the Wikia and as such, browsed through the edit history and saw that your culprit, "Chetomorph", had made edits. I already admitted to being stupid and copying the same types of edits he'd made, and I also admitted that I decided to use his account as a basis/ role model for mine (I was too stupid to notice the "Blocked" signal on his page. The similarities you pointed out ARE worthy of suspicion, I'll admit that, because I was just a dumb newbie who saw another user's account and tried to copy what he had down. Look, I have done nothing malicious on this account, and your block of me is based solely on suspicion, and I have already told you, and I admit, to copying another user's ways to try and get a firm standing on your Wiki. Was it stupid? Yes. But I have in no way vandalized, or done anything else that can be considered harmful. If anything, I have cooperated with you in a civil manner, which judging on what you said is the complete opposite of what that spammer would do. Look, you owe it to me to give me the benefit of doubt, as I have with you. I understand that times are tough on Xenopedia with spammers, but you are an Admin and an Admin's job should be to help, not persecute. All I ask is that you understand, and consider, unblocking my account, or at the very least put an expiration on my block if you feel I am asking for too much. But I have been respectful, and I feel that deserves some recognition.

Edit: As you mentioned, and as I am well aware, because Chetomorph's account was blocked just two hours prior to my signing up on Xenopedia, his edit history was the most recent, literally the first thing I clicked on when I browsed through for inspiration/ a basis to form my home page on. I wanted to sign up for Xenopedia because I wanted a place where I could belong and not be judged. Well, now I am paying the price for being in the wrong place, at the wrong time, and an Admin thinks i'm somebody I am not. Please, Sir, have mercy on me.
