Bloons Wiki talk:Blocking Guidelines

Full protection edit request on 23:09, August 25, 2015 (UTC)
I request changing the "i.e." on the inappropriate username section to "e.g.". The word "i.e." means "that is", but "e.g." means "for example". Using "i.e" in the wrong sense can really change what a person, book, manual, etc. is really saying.

If a school uniform manual says, for example, "No crazy hairstyles, i.e. dreadlocks", it means only dreadlocks are restricted, however, saying "No crazy hairstyles, e.g. dreadlocks" means that dreadlocks are examples of hairstyles that are restricted, and other crazy hairstyles such as rat-tails may also be restricted too.
