-Christ, what a fucking joke.  I happen to be in Spain, where previously I was in the UK.  So how am I supposed to edit from the same IP as normal?  Did I edit any other pages except the talk page of that IP?  No I didn't.  Why block this IP without even thinking to ask a polite question or two?  Because you are deeply, deeply prejudiced against anonymous editors, that's why.  Seriously, you think I deserved all this shit just for changing "explained" to "said"?
-{{unblock reviewed | 1=No block was evaded. The block applied to this IP was just part of a general pile-on by editors who failed to assume good faith, enthusiastically bit the newbie, and generally did their best to hound out someone who was merely making constructive edits. They did well - I doubt very much whether I'll bother to contribute any more. But I resent this further slap in the face deeply enough that I insist on being unblocked, so that at the very least I can thank on their talk pages those few editors who did not join the herd which attacked me so unnecessarily. | decline=[[User talk:2.220.204.70|This IP]] is blocked or, more specifically, the '''person''' behind the IP is blocked. You do not get to switch IPs and make edits as if nothing had happened. I would also suggest reading [[WP:NOTTHEM]]. If you're serious about not editing any longer, then I suggest starting now. <font color="darkorange">[[User:Tnxman307|TN]]</font><b><font color="midnightblue"><big>[[User talk:Tnxman307|X]]</big></font></b><font color="red">[[Special:Contributions/Tnxman307|Man]]</font> 16:12, 27 July 2011 (UTC)}}
-:That's quite an appallingly rude "review".  How dare you "suggest" that I stop editing?  How dare you suggest that I switched IPs deliberately?  I am away from home - how exactly would I use the IP associated with my home internet connection?

-{{unblock reviewed | 1=Look, it's not a hard point. This IP was blocked for "block evasion". No block was evaded. Ergo, the block should not have been made. | decline=Any edits made by a blocked user using another account or IP are evasion, as the policy currently stands. Perhaps the policy should be amended slightly to reflect a situation where an IP user does not have access to the IP, but I don't feel in this case I can enforce policy as it should be. Besides, you could have just waited till your vacation was over ... if I were in Spain for a week, the last thing that would concern me would be getting unblocked from Wikipedia. — [[User:Daniel Case|Daniel Case]] ([[User talk:Daniel Case|talk]]) 17:35, 27 July 2011 (UTC)}}
-{{unblock reviewed|At least you've given a polite and considered answer, unlike the other two admins who responded, and I thank you for that.  The point, though, is that I can't edit the talk page associated with the other blocked IP. There are discussions there that I would like to continue.  I did not evade any block - I would have been able to make the edits I made even if I were still using the other IP, and simply by virtue of changing my geographical location I can't make edits that I should be able to.|decline=As Daniel and TNXman said, however, the block is against you, not your IP address (whatever it may be at the time). Until the reasons for that block are resolved, the block stands. If it helps at all, the block on this IP address will actually expire before the original block will, so you've actually gotten yourself some time off the block. However, until and unless the reasons for the original block are resolved, I'm afraid I can't lift either. I do accept that this particular "Block Evasion" block is simply an unfortunate circumstance, however.

-{{unblock|Once again the situation just becomes Kafka-esque and bizarre.  Let me remind you that it all started because I changed the word "explained" to "said" in an article.  I've suffered constant attacks and provocation since then, including the comments left by admins above.  It wasn't my choice to change IP, and I didn't evade the block.  I edited the talk page of the previous IP, which I would have been able to edit anyway.  You say "until and unless the reasons for the original block are resolved, I'm afraid I can't lift either".  How am I meant to address the previous block when I can't edit the talk page of the IP concerned?  Can you see how absurd this situation is?  What exactly is the block of this IP supposed to be achieving?}}
