This will be my last detailed answer, I'll need to move on after that. The short answer to what you wrote is "I have a different interpretation of events. And in my opinion, in order to be successful in any community, you will need to adjust the way you interact with people. That includes being willing to accept that others may see things differently from you - and that they may actually be right" :)

On socking: Yes, it's possible that Kelcat just threw that in there. It's also possible that she found strong indications of socking in the behavior of an account editing on the wikia (a very common and often reliable way of working it out). Or, it's possible she just made a mistake, or confused you with someone else. And it's possible the details of the sock mean I didn't see it on my check even though it exists. But whichever of those is closest to what happened, it doesn't affect the validity of your block.

I disagree totally with your analysis of Kelcat's reply. I would say you are putting words in her mouth. From what I've read and how I understood it, there was no admission. Which again takes us to differences of interpretation/opinion, and stating it as fact.

An example of taking complex comments and reducing or rephrasing them is on your Dragon Age talk page. Kelcat gave a detailed message listing various issues over time and place that had lead to your block. You later said (in part) "this block is only about the Inquisitor thread". Even alongside the rest of the statement, that was misleading. There are more examples, but I ain't pulling up and going though all those discussions again ;)

On "they can find anything offensive", I accept that. But there are always statements that are generally considered offensive to society or to sub-sections of society. Having read what you wrote, there were things there that I found both offensive and inaccurate. I'm not going to go into exactly which statements they were, because the point is the matter of offense as measured by the norms of that wikia's community - with those norms set by the admins, the general community (who seem to have accepted your ban), and the written community guidelines.

"That rose is green" is not an opinion, it is an incorrect fact. Which can be countered, as you say. But, frankly, it can be tiring to have to do so over and over again - not everyone loves long and involved discussions as you seem to do. He who lasts the longest is not necessarily right.

Again, I am not going to go specifically into whether individual comments were offensive, or what interpretations of those comments are reasonable or not. I will point out that your interpretation of "I detest homosexuality" has changed from "I feel that definition [of "detest"] regarding homosexuality, which is defined by acts and behaviors" to "I detest the game options available to my custom character regarding same-sex romance". That seems a pretty typical shift in your arguments

But it's not my purpose here to try to counter or challenge your prejudices, or to argue specific distortions in what you have said. I just want to try to challenge your thinking on why you were blocked and the validity of that. Most importantly I hope my analysis has given you some new things to think about, that may just help you if you join another community in the future :)
