[03:54:09] 2600:387:6:807:0:0:0:A5 is vandalizing Meta [09:23:10] Void has dealt with them. [10:49:22] Yeah, I saw from RC [13:37:13] @everyone Lol, jahjajha free discord nitro for 3 month!! http://discocrd.gift/airdrop/nitro [13:37:15] [url] 3 months of Discord Nitro free from STEAM | discocrd.gift [13:37:33] What the hell is this spam doing here? [13:39:01] How ironic, spamming in the spam reporting channel [13:39:50] 😂 Oh dear, I'm in shock [13:40:12] They actually spammed the whole of our channels [13:40:23] Let's just allow the mods to handle this and remove the spam. [13:41:30] I've cleared it from Interwiki channel [16:35:50] [[Special:CentralAuth/SabellSobea]]Mass vandalism on Meta [16:35:50] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:CentralAuth/SabellSobea [16:35:50] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:CentralAuth/SabellSobea [16:37:25] [url] Global account information for SabellSobea - Miraheze Meta | meta.miraheze.org [16:38:11] [url] 504 Gateway Time-out | meta.miraheze.org [16:43:36] Oh for fuck's sake, that's the same person from Wikimedia that I had to deal with this morning. It's most likely Maria Voicu Alexandra. [16:44:05] I see. Cross-network vandalism then, targeting you? [16:44:17] Yes. The behavior is pretty much aligned here. [16:44:56] If @Void is around today, he should lock the account. [16:49:31] Just found out they were doing it cross-wiki: https://reallifevillains.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/SobellSobea https://login.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/SobellSobea It's all nothing but gibberish nonsense. @Stewards Please intervene there if you get this message.

At least he was vaguely creative. [17:02:38] 'receptionist' [17:03:54] ah yes, the Nonciclopedia troll, certainly entertaining [17:04:37] 'dmedusa' [17:35:37] Cleaned up meta [17:40:39] Thanks. Now let's wait for someone to do the lock as it was a clear case of cross-wiki vandalism from that user. [17:41:12] Reception123: ^ [17:41:32] MrJaroslavik also appears to be active too. [18:20:02] [[Special:CentralAuth/Gimmelover]] Ugh, this again?

Watterson]] This user has made a similar Requests for Comment as @raidarr pointed out to me. I have a feeling that this is the same user who filed something exactly similar with wording similarities: https://qualitipedia.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=Requests_for_Comment/Make_anti-vandal_bots&action=edit&redlink=1 (Gumball T. Watterson) [20:25:15] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:CentralAuth/Gumball_T._Watterson [20:25:15] https://qualitipedia.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=Requests_for_Comment/Change_MediaWiki:Blockedtext_to_this&action=edit&redlink=1 (This user is currently blocked across the Qualitipedia network) (globally locked) @Void Hate to ask you, but could you investigate the similarities here, if it's possible? We've had users (which I suspected that they might've been sockpuppets) creating pretty pointless Requests for Comments (with one of [20:25:16] them turning out to be vandalism). Oh, and as an added bonus, My Story Animated has done something similar, but it was disruptive in nature (calling me corrupt, and attempting to get people to demote me for nothing): https://qualitipedia.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=Requests_for_Comment/Demot_DarkMatterMan4500&action=edit&redlink=1 [20:25:16] https://qualitipedia.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=Requests_for_Comment/Demote_DarkMatterMan4500&action=edit&redlink=1 [20:25:18] [url] Global account information for Gumball T.

[20:26:44] I'll do it while github updates [20:26:53] @DarkMatterMan4500: your troll [20:27:09] Oh that's not meta [20:27:28] I saw RfC and thought meta [20:27:54] It's not on Meta. I forgot to tell you that it was on Qualitipedia Meta, not the actual Miraheze Meta. [20:27:59] Na, QP has an rfc process now too :p [20:28:08] Both have a colloquial meta name, gets a wee confusing [20:28:18] yes it does [20:28:57] In short, you are free to call it "Qualitipedia Central". [20:29:18] I typically don't care to just go forth and investigate people that haven't fundamentally done something wrong, but my gut feeling that Mr.Gumball is a suspicious character is very strong and it's a case where I'd personally make an exception [20:29:30] Given spare time after more pressing matters of course [20:30:11] Yes. Me and Raidarr thought that this was a suspicious user suddenly coming to our Qualitipedia Central just to file that got me suspicious. [20:30:26] In fact, it's basically identical to the situation I managed yesterday only with a less suspicious name [20:32:17] Looking at where the account "Gumball T. Watterson" was first created on, it was created on the loginwiki, which raises even more of a red flag (although anybody could create an account on that said wiki). [20:32:58] However, our LTA have been frequenting on that wiki first to create accounts on first, so I'm not sure if this is a coincidence at all. [20:36:28] There's an awful lot of correlation, and I'd say the odds of it all being coincidental would be better used to win a lottery. [20:38:34] Which is why I think this needs to be investigated. [21:26:31] https://meta.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=Stewards%27_noticeboard&curid=662&oldid=202557 This baseless report got me laughing. It's obvious that this report of his will go nowhere. [21:26:38] [url] Stewards' noticeboard - Miraheze Meta | meta.miraheze.org [21:29:29] now they get more hammers [21:29:50] :BanHammerMH: [21:41:51] Thanks. I had a feeling it would go nowhere. [21:53:11] And it makes me more confident that this should be investigated.
