Okay, still no change in the system, so I'm gonna go ahead and attempt to appeal here.

Okay, I concede the fact that I was pursuing the same discussion on the wiki just a little too much, and that I probably did get very pushy about it and was way too eager to keep coming back to it. Dunno why I've felt the compulsion to keep doing that, but yes I admit that I carried it too far for too long. And in doing so I probably came off as excessively negative. Perhaps that too was not for the better.

But a few things I want to say, I was not looking to personally attack anybody. And neither did I result to name-calling or any low-brow moves of that sort aimed at belittling anyone. I've been maybe too harsh a critic who's been too eager to push my critiques which I have reitereated on numerous occasions, and that was wrong of me. Also, at the time the block was enacted, I was provoked by another user. At that moment that it happened, someone tried to bash me and another user for being fans of the comics whilst also hammering our criticisms of the new series. And I admit, I shouldn't have reacted with the anger I did, but I was trying to defend myself and a fellow user from someone who came at us with a charged rhetoric. Said user who used this rhetoric against us quickly became inactive again on the site which personally I find kind of suspicious, but that doesn't matter. I was merely acting out of defense of myself and a fellow user at that moment, and yeah I didn't do so responsibly and probably should've said nothing and ignored it. I felt provoked at that moment as the reply was very harsh in tone towards the two of us.

I have been a vocal critic of the series and I admit lately my conduct had been especially bad simply because I kept forcing the argument open again too many times. Not sure why I felt compelled to do that and realize now that I went too far with it. But again, I wasn't personally attacking anybody, had no desire to, and if I was not courteous in introducing my own more critical perspective to the conversations that were ongoing, I apologize for it and will refrain from any further such tone and not react with the charged fervor I have at times. I realize it was ridiculous to keep doing what I was doing and even I was wearing myself out by doing so. I shall refrain from such conduct in the future and wish not to come across as disruptive again.

And that's all I have to say at the present time.
