I point out to the admins and loyal readers of this list, something that should've been pointed out ages ago:

21:35, 28 August 2006 Freakofnurture (Talk | contribs) blocked "74.104.100.26 (contribs)" with an expiry time of 6 months (nathanrdotcom)
I was blocked by freakofnurture some months ago and the only block reason given was "nathanrdotcom" (link to the page on Encyclopedia Dramatica about me).
I remind everyone that external sites/pages should not be used as block reasons. Real, actual reasons (related to Wikipedia) should be used as block reasons (example: "IP address of blocked user" would've been acceptable)
I challenge someone to show Freakofnurture the error of his ways, he can't just use any old block reason he likes (whether he's partial to ED or not, this isn't ED, this is Wikipedia and Wikipedia has rules and guidelines, unlike ED).
(And who ever heard of blocking a dynamic IP for six months anyway?)
Thanks, this needed to be said.
