If you review unblock requests, you'll see
the general answer is "uhm

on it.
That said, I've reduced a block for someone I blocked when he pointed
out he didn't get the warning to desist until after all his reverts
(the timestamps were close, and I might've been sloppy). It does work
to ask if you have legitimate cause. Most blocked users simply don't
have legitimate cause to be unblocked, and get told "no".

I'm talking about bans, not run of the mill blocks :)
Err, fair enough, I've never unbanned a user - I offered once, but he
told me in no uncertain terms I could go fuck myself. Almost all bans
probably fall under the same criterion as blocks above - no legitimate
cause, can't be told much beyond "no".
