Hi, I'm a regular on Community Central chat; I've been trying to advise User:MarioLuigiGCFan ever since his sockpuppet was blocked. Now I just want to discuss your blocking policy, because you've frustrated pretty much everything I would usually advise.

I am honestly not in a position to say whether the user is guilty of the original offense of "inserting false information" because I don't know anything about your series. In any case, he has expressed the desire to apologize and explain - except there seems to be no way to apologize or appeal a block on this wiki.
 * The block setting "cannot edit own talk page" has been manually enabled (you seem to do this a lot). When that occurs, we generally advise users to use the blocking admin's message wall on Central... except...
 * Project:Policy says "If an admin takes disciplinary action toward you, please do not follow them to another Wikia and harass them", and apparently simply wanting to discuss the matter constitutes harassment.

Let me be the first to say that MarioLuigiGCFan made a mistake in using a sockpuppet to apologize, but you seem to have no intention on allowing users to discuss their blocks, which is pretty problematic when you block users for a year for (correct me if I'm wrong) a first offense. If you had a legitimate channel for discussion then maybe inexperienced users wouldn't make the mistake of using alternate accounts.

Please, can some discussion be allowed somewhere? It's honestly rather bad policy to default to prohibiting discussion on a user's talk page at the very least.
