This is the first time I've ever reported a suspected sockpuppet so if I have acted inappropriately, or neglected to do something that needed to be done, I'd appreciate guidance; I'm acting in good faith.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Accounting4Taste (talk • contribs)
Everything about this report is correct; you did a fine job, Accounting4Taste. This IP is almost certainly Mightyms, since it started on many pages right where Mightyms left off [1] [2] [3] [4] [5]. That said, the block achieved its preventative purpose of stopping the soapboxing on the AFD. Although block evasion is a serious matter, I'd be inclined to warn about block evasion rather than reset the block, as I think resetting would probably just inflame the situation. Since I'm involved, I'll ask for another admin's input.--chaser - t 08:43, 4 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- I've reset and increased the block to 48 hours due to block evasion. Mightyms blatently just disregarded the block and carried on where he left off with his IP which is out of order. Ryan Postlethwaite 08:52, 4 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- I now note that Mightyms has been blocked indefinitely for himself being a sockpuppet of a banned user, SallyForth123. I don't know if this needs to be noted here, but I thought I'd try and make things plain for any administrator who comes along and see this. Accounting4Taste 20:03, 4 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Conclusions
Mightyms blocked indefinitely as a sockpuppet of a banned editor.--chaser - t 20:10, 4 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
