	: Yes, I do. I was not trying to make another account, I was trying to change my email as I have it set up on my gmail, which I neither use nor know how to, and I want to set up my outlook email as the one linked with my account, which is what I was attempting to do. But both this time, and when I first tried to set it up, it was not sending me the confirmation e-mail like it should, despite accepting the e-mail. I saw that I was blocked for a week, which I accepted, as I had done that which I was accused for, and I was trying to see if I could fix that in the meantime. I'm sorry about the confusion there. I'm also sorry about all the stuff before that I was doing that was wrong. If I may, is there a way that me and you, or any staff could swap e-mails so I could have a way to discuss confusions about the wikis rules, formats, and anything that I don't understand without using talk pages? I ask as I do want to help make this wiki better, as I have for the past few years seen close to 100 or more fixes that would help, and I'd like to do them, but I don't want to mess up the flow and then someone else have to come by and use their precious time fixing my mistakes. I understand if info gets updated, as that's what the server is for, but that's not really the issue. I even, in some cases, have the needed info, but I don't know where to put it sometimes. I'm really having trouble figuring out the whole "this is ok", "this is not ok" stuff. Sometimes it seems ok to do stuff, but then when I do it, I get in trouble, such as the questions that I asked on the talk pages, excluding the one or ones about "does this toy have this function", and things such as that. I thought that I was obeying the rules, I thought that questions like that were ok. If I had known beforehand that that was not the case, I would not have done so. Honestly, the whole rule thing is formatted in a very confusing way. It took me like twenty minutes or so just to understand the basics such as certain editing stuff. I have even seen others on here that seem to have the same issue. At the end of the day, I am merely just wanting to be someone that can help improve this wiki, but I don't understand all the rules, they aren't clear, and it takes awhile just to even find them. Personally, I'd suggest making a rule page that summarizes the rules, and gives links to the more detailed pages. I'd even be willing to do that for you, or at least help if you'd like and let me. But I digress, the fact is, I'm sorry, I did not realize that I was in the wrong, and that's due to me not understanding the rules, and I want to know if there is a way to ask about the rules without breaking them in the same process, as well as request a second chance. I'm more than willing to follow the rules, but I need to know ''fully'', 100% what that means, otherwise I can't obey what I don't understand. If it helps, I'm even willing to remain blocked until I can confirm that I understand and know all the rules. Whatever it takes to show that I truly am sorry and confused, and that all that I have typed here is the truth, I am willing to do.

	Talk pages are also not the place to make demands for changes to the wiki. If you have something that you would like to add to the wiki, it's best to make that change yourself. The wiki is a collaborative and voluntary effort and it is up to the user to make the changes they see fit, we don't request others to do it for us. Also, if you are worried about having your edits reverted for not being up to snuff, I'd recommend taking another look at the welcome box at the top of this page for our style guide and help sections.

	: Actually, I was on the Discord at some point, but I got banned over a miscommunication issue regarding me. Apparently I asked for members for my fanfic or something, but when I asked what the staff whom accused me was talking about, they just shut down on me. I recall asking a few questions in the server mentioning that I was using the answers to further enhance said fanfic, such as info on some stuff that I couldn't find here, like bios for minicons, and info about a voice actor, and something else, but nothing like "Hey, join my Discord and help on the fanfic.", which is what I was accused of. I tried to appologize and make amends, but I got banned for not listening, and I still don't know why I'm banned, just something about posting something that I shouldn't. They also said that I was "fighting with staff", which I asked about only to be told more or less "if I don't know what they are talking then they don't have to explain". Now I'd get it if I was faking or something, but I genuinely don't know what I did to get IP banned. I did say some things that I was told not to say/do, and once I was told to stop, I said, more or less, "Ok, I'm sorry.", then stopped and never did it again. I don't know if someone made false claims, or the staff or someone else misread something I typed, or even if I was mistaken for someone else. All I know is I'm IP banned. I only know this as I tried to rejoin on an alternate account to try and repeal the ban, or at least understand what I did, but then I found I was banned on there too, dispite never using that account on the server. Now if I did do something wrong, that's fine, I accept the punishment, but I'm genuinely unsure what I did, as what I was accused of was neither something I did, nor something listed in the rules of things not to do. Well, unless I overlooked something, which is quite likely as I have the bad habit/tendency of doing that. So hey, yeah, sure, I'd gladly use the Discord server, but I can't if I'm banned. So unless you or someone else can help me in that regard, I'm stuck. Also, when I was typing that thing out about demands, I was not thinking. I even think that I was mad at something else and thus blinded by anger, but I don't recall. However, either way, that doesn't make it right. I'm still in the wrong. I honestly didn't even realize that I did that until someone pointed that out, which I am truly sorry about. Normally I don't act that way, and normally I just ask about info, but this time I thought that I was in the right, so I thought that stating it needed an update was the appropriate response. I can see now that I wasn't though.

	:: Oh! Also, just so you know, I wasn't worried about my edits reverted for not being up to snuff, I was more concerned that I would be breaking a rule for deleting the comment/caption on the picture in the most recent case. Plus if it's removed/reverted for not being up to snuff, that's fine. This site is supposed to have proper info, so if I post something that is wrong info, I'd like someone to come along and change it. Besides, given the fact that the entire point of this site is to give proper info, there's not much I can do about that. I mean, since I use this site for all my Transformers info, it wouldn't be of much use to me if it has wrong info or missing info. Honestly, when I mention that I think someone else should change it, it's due to me not having or knowing the right info, and I don't want to post wrong info to begin with and cause someone to be confused or ~~mislead~~, let alone be the reason that someone has to edit and fix my mistakes. So I try to have the right info to begin with, thus when I don't have it, but know (or in this case "think") that info is wrong or misleading, I feel like it's better to speak up and mention that it might be wrong, rather than to change it to something that is wrong when it's right to begin with, or even make it more wrong than it was to begin with. Not only that, but sometimes I can't find the right info, and most places more or less depict this site as the ''only'' one that has the right info. So when this has wrong info, I sometimes can't find the right info due to everything directing me to here for the right info. It's just a paradox at that point.

Sometimes it seems ok to do stuff, but then when I do it, I get in trouble, such as the questions that I asked on the talk pages, excluding the one or ones about "does this toy have this function", things such as that. I thought that I was obeying the rules, I thought that questions like that were ok. If I had known beforehand that that was not the case, I would not have done so.

			I've unblocked access to your talk page in case you wish to make a case for being unblocked. As I mentioned above, you should be finding an area where you can contribute to the wiki without needing to ask a lot of questions on talk pages. Your adding of an item to your todo list to clean up foreign names on the wiki despite admitting you don't know where the foreign names come from suggests that you have not taken this advice on board. Rather than attempt to work on areas you have no knowledge of, you should be looking at areas you already know. I want to also note that as per site rules, you can only have one account. --[[User:Abates\|abates]] ([[User talk:Abates\|talk]]) 19:01, 22 August 2021 (EDT)

	9. Figure out how this site gets the foreign names. Like is it just people go and translate it and "boom", there is the answer, or if it from official content? Also, like why is it some have more foreign names, both in the sense of more language options and the sense of many translations in one language? Like what's shown here: https://tfwiki.net/wiki/Aerialbot_(G1)#Foreign_names . Like why and how? Is this an error, is it official and just applies to different versions of the same Transformer/group/thing, or something else completely? What's the reason for it?

			: Foreign names are provided by international fans where the names might've been changed from either their American/British or Japanese versions due to whatever laws and reasons other countries operate under, and the translations are provided by fans who know the languages. There's no need to figure out how the site "gets the foreign names" - it's provided on their packaging and other supplemental materials. --[[User:Lonegamer78\|Lonegamer78]] ([[User talk:Lonegamer78\|talk]]) 03:47, 21 August 2021 (EDT)
