Just ask whenever you need your profile page unlocked.

As you know, ALL of the wikias are having their URLs changed from "wikia.com " to "fandom.com". This migration has been scheduled for a while now and VW just recently changed over.

Along with this rebranding network-wide, there has been subtle shifts in some policies as well. Like, for example, dealing with sockpuppets. Alternative accounts and usernames are not in and of themselves a violation of the Terms of Use. Users can have as many as they wish to have. HOWEVER, it HOW these alternate accounts are used which might be a problem.

Staff no longer considers alternate accounts as a violation. ONLY IF they are used to *overtly* circumvent blocks and bans. In other words, Staff now has taken the stance of if a blocked user comes back with a different name but keeps their heads down and stay quiet, they are "okay". Only if they comeback to keep stirring up trouble and resume any problematic behavior which got them blocked should they be blocked anew under that alternate name.

Basically, we are not to engage in "witch hunts". Just simply block each name for the problems each name causes.

We all need to adjust our thinking about sockpuppetry.
