Intentionally reverting edits to factually inaccurate versions. Guanaco 02:02, 28 Aug 2004 (UTC)
Guanaco needs to be dealt with, and my Request for Comment was ignored, so what is my next step? The arbitration process will do no good, since it will take three or four months to get any thing done, and I don't expect anything profitable to be done anyway, and in that long period of time, Guanaco will have allowed and encouraged Michael to post all kinds of stuff (he had three pages of postings in the last three days), in direct violation of Jimbo's hard ban.

I am not unilaterally unblocking him, but I am not prohibited from doing
so. My decision to unblock Michael's accounts is supported by both Danny
and Theresa Knott and falls within the "in other appropriate cases"
guideline for unblocking. The blocks do nothing to prevent him from
logging out, creating a new account, and then editing a different page.
He can be blocked on sight, but it is clear that he shouldn't.
