You edits to the collections under your DwellerCamp name have never been in question. It is the rest of your behaviour that is a problem and rather frustratingly so. I honestly find your decision to edit under an IP address last night baffling. The original block only had 23 hours left at the time, and that would have been that. Was it really that difficult to wait that long? Evading the block served no purpose (neither did the edit itself, which is even more bizarre). But I don't know how much more benefit of the doubt I can give you based on your good contributions when time and time again you try to subvert the system.

I think you are well aware that the 24 pages of repeat/nonsense content (turning 1/10th of the entire wiki into miss information) would not have been considered positive contribtions, otherwise you would have made them with your own account (and considering the lengths you have gone to to get badges, I just don't see the 24 pages being made accidentally logged out). Yet you were given the benefit of the doubt and had ample opportunity to discuss it (and if you disagree with whether it was vandalism or not), either under the anonymous IP pseudeynum or your own name. But instead you decided to escalate and create a sockpuppet account solely to do it again, this time adding 100+ pages of repeat/nonsense content (1/3 of the entire wikia since it only has 200 or so pages to begin with).

I know you are well aware of how serious an offense it is to create a sockpuppet to make those edits was, since you maintain a blog where you had a (now deleted) post that detailed how you were blocked from editing wikipedia for creating sockpuppet accounts, in your own words "this is a grave sin, one of the worst". And I think you are aware that in most instances, this would have resulted in a life-time ban. However, your good contributions under your own name were taken into account, and I gave a very lenient 2 week block instead. You were left with the ability to post on your own wall while blocked, and could have easily discussed it then if you disagreed with the decision.

Instead, for whatever reason, you decided to evade the block last minute and edit again under the IP address. It leaves me in a no win situation. It is apparant you know what you are doing, but choose to make the disruptions anyway, and even try to cover your tracks in doing so. By rights, the third incident should have just been dealt with with a permenant ban, but I am trying to take your positive contirbutions into account against all signals that its a bad idea. I don't really have any indication from you that if I remove the block that it would be the end of it. Even here, you have not addressed the problem at hand, choosing instead to just talk about the carefully cultivated good contribution image.
