If he's blocked, he won't get a chance to explain himself. I don't think he's on the forum.

As someone who had a number of my pages redone by this guy's bots, this is definitely annoying. I will say this though, keep in mind that (HOPEFULLY) he did this with good intentions. If he's told to stop and keeps doing it, then he def should be banned. I myself was new here not to long ago, its hard sometimes to know the culture of what goes on here and what is or isn't okay to do.

Just my 2 cents.

Ok so I would like to amend my previous statement. After looking at the absurd number of edits this guy did, I too am pissed off...

Yeah, I undid several hundred last night and I still have a lot more to go through next time I feel like hitting the rollback button for half an hour.

It's only temporary. I'm afraid that if he is running a bot, it may edit more pages. He can explain himself in 2 weeks.

Oops, forgot that it was that long...I just wanted to temp-ban him, but didn't pay much attention to how long.

I'm just wondering how lazy this guy has to be to need a bot to remove spaces.

Well he's banned. Maybe he'll just stay gone when the month is over. If not and he returns to his old ways - well i guess we'll cross that bridge if we come to it.
