Ok, well no one here would accept that as a legitimate use of
sockpuppeting. The only legitimate uses involve users who are not already banned (unlike yourself). Generally speaking, blocked users can still edit their talk page, so you can communicate that way - or by email.
Did you actually bother to read WP:Sock puppetry? Nowhere is blocked users mentioned, nor is using it to get the attention of an admin. It does however mention use sockpuppets to engage in edits wars is clearly a violation of the rule, which does include TJive.

The excuse that someone else did something...
2008 Olympics article, and yet Blnguyen unblocked him for whatever
reason.
...or that someone else got unblocked for something, cuts no mustard
here whatsoever. Don't even bother.
No, it showed a severe double standard in Blnguyen's policies towards users with the same political opinion versus the ones who doesn't. Does this admin even follow WP policies regarding blocking?
It's rediculous that I got banned for personal attacks several months
ago,
No, that's quite standard.
I've been blocked 24 hours for this already, thus I cannot be punished twice for the same offence.
and which I apologised for, yet article vandals, POV pushers, and trolls such as TJive never got any punishment.
No, that's the luck of the dice. By all means, bring such things to
other people's attention, but don't expect to get special treatment because of it.
Why? Admins such as Blnguyen and Tony Sidaway refuse even to talk to me, and openly sided with TJive, that somehow this vandal's "evidence" is all that needed to block me. Kunguadam already unblocked me, and Blnguyen simply reblocked me to engage a wheel war.
Hope this helps!
