{{unblock|There was no intent for my username to be profane. It was a nickname I used in college, and didn't give it a second thought when I was asked to change my previous username. If unblocked, I would attempt to change the username to one that is in full compliance with your policy.}}

I've asked the blocking administrator for further clarification, since I'm not sure what part of our username policy your account was blocked under. --Chris (talk) 03:21, 25 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

Your request to be unblocked has been granted for the following reason(s):

You are correct. This is not a blatatently profane name. However, names like Boogerboysmell (talk · contribs) are routinely blocked as offensive. Now that you point it out, they are not blatantly against policy, but names like that often tend to be blocked. I've unblocked you, but similar to the advice given to Booger Eating Moron (talk · contribs), you'll probably do well to change your username, as others may come to a similar conclusion. Apologies for the block and happy editing. Toddst1 (talk) 15:25, 25 July 2010 (UTC)Reply
