Elvenscout, I derive no pleasure from taking this action, but the fact is, no matter whether Tristan didn't edit for a month or to or not, that you made those edits to the articles I pointed at, and perhaps others, right after Tristan did, and they were articles you never edited before. It is not my job to point out that a specific ban, and bans are typically tailored to the situation, differs from the general, standard ban: after all, one of your initial complaints was that Tristan followed you to certain articles, if I remember correctly. An interaction ban is a two-way street, and what goes for the one mutatis mutandis goes for the other. If the shoe were on the other foot I'd have blocked Tristan.One more thing: you are free to list your complaints in essay form or with bullet points and emoticons, but not on Wikipedia. See "Exceptions" to WP:IBAN, though: given that Tristan is free to drop a complaint about you on my talk page, so are you; moreover, if you feel that this ban, you may do so, pace "no commenting on each other anywhere", by "addressing a legitimate concern about the ban itself in an appropriate forum". WP:AN is the right place for that. Moreover, if Tristan's behavior needs to be discussed because you wish to argue, for instance, that their behavior in combination with the ban makes your work impossible, I suppose that would fall within the purview of the exception as well (at WP:AN), but you'd have to be prepared to have your own edits, including the appeal/complaint, scrutinized as well. Best,
