Request reason:

I have not participated in Block Evasion. Today, I just set up my first wikipedia account as Rebo99, I edited a page and was blocked from further editing by Fastily. The reason given was "Block Evasion" and the user name "Public Advocate" was given after the reason. I can only deduce that there is a belief that I am the same user as Public Advocate, which I am not. Please investigate this, I have never had a wikipedia account before today and comparison of IP addresses should verify this. If not, then perhaps I don't understand the reason for the block. Rebo99 (talk) 6:30 pm, Today (UTC−4) Posted by -- DQ (t) (e) on behalf of user who said they could not edit, this was sent to unblock-en-llists.wikimedia.org.

Accept reason:

After talking to the blocking admin, we both feel that you are not the same user. -- DQ (t) (e) 02:07, 11 August 2011 (UTC)

While there is always the possibility of proxy IPs, note that it is true that the two accounts' IPs do not match. Dominic·t 23:05, 10 August 2011 (UTC)
