Request reason:

Hello, Yesterday I was rightly blocked for a personal attack against Cullen328, and leading up the block there were several incidents, that I now regret.

Firstly, I felt the need to unnecessarily get myself involved in BoundaryLayer's unblock request, from 11 months ago. I should not have done this, as I had nothing to do with the oringal block and was not fully informed on the reasons for the block.
Secondly, I tried to involve an another admin who was previously uninvolved to back my case. This was incorrect as I wasted the administrator's time.
Thirdly, out of frustration I vandalised the RfA page with an attempt to nominate BoundaryLayer for an RfA. When that failed, I then used a cheep insult against Cullen328.
Before this incident, I believe my account was used productively to edit articles on British, and particularly Northern Irish, history, politics and sport.
If my account is reinstated, I will apologise to every user involved individually on their talk pages. 

Decline reason:

Request reason:

I stand by all that I said in my first unblock request. The sockpuppet accusation is easily explained. I found out about Wikipedia editing through someone I live with, telling me about his blocks and vandalism. This inspired me to look into what Wikipedia editing is properly about, and take part in it myself. Since we live we each we do share similar interests, but if you look at edits they made compared to the edits I made you will find mine are, other than yesterday's incident which I have apologised for, productive. I hope you will take into account my good faith edits. Thank you for reading, ApatheticName (talk) 19:50, 2 May 2023 (UTC)Reply

Decline reason:

Your explanation is not consistent with the technical data. Sockpuppetry is   Confirmed and your attempt to mislead us is not convincing. Yamla (talk) 20:42, 2 May 2023 (UTC)Reply

Request reason:

I find the sockpuppet accusation concerning.

Firstly, I do not have access to a password for that account, since it is not mine, so I can not  organise an unblock appeal from there.
Secondly, you accessed private information without good cause, as during one discussion it was mentioned that my account is pro-British while BoundaryLayer's account is anti-British. This could suggest you willing looked at my IP address without firm belief it was my account was a sockpuppet.
Lastly, up until Monday's incident my account was used only in productive ways. I have since apologised for my disruptive behaviour and have committed to not doing it again, but this is yet to be addressed.
Thank you for reading,
