[00:04:32] Hello @Voidwalker. [00:04:40] hey [00:12:26] Do you happen to know anything about the user named TheFlamingDude98? If not, let's just say it was just WG8686 being his usual disruptive self, but did something unusually disruptive the other day: https://meta.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=Meta:Requests_for_permissions&diff=prev&oldid=232757 (This request to have my wiki creator right taken away [00:12:26] was just a ruse to try and get me banned for a false reason) [00:12:27] Then we have the usual behavior on the Stewards' Noticeboard: https://meta.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=Stewards%27_noticeboard&diff=prev&oldid=232729&diffmode=source [00:12:27] Now, let's compare it to Fainted and Rambo's baseless and rather frivolous complaint(s) in the past, and I know the IP is rather stale, but I thought I would ask you for a second opinion, since the check against TheFlamingDude98 didn't exactly, but Doug did say that he agrees with the fact that it's likely him, based on similar behavior: [00:12:28] https://meta.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=Stewards%27_noticeboard&diff=prev&oldid=192821&diffmode=source (Fainted) [00:12:28] [url] Difference between revisions of "Meta:Requests for permissions" - Miraheze Meta | meta.miraheze.org [00:12:28] https://meta.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=Stewards%27_noticeboard&diff=prev&oldid=184657 (Rambo) [00:12:29] To be honest, I thought it would be best if I had a second opinion from a different Steward this time around. [00:12:31] [url] Difference between revisions of "Stewards' noticeboard" - Miraheze Meta | meta.miraheze.org [00:12:32] [url] Difference between revisions of "Stewards' noticeboard" - Miraheze Meta | meta.miraheze.org [00:12:34] [url] Difference between revisions of "Stewards' noticeboard" - Miraheze Meta | meta.miraheze.org [00:15:19] Now bare in mind people, I can understand Doug's judgement here, along with Raidarr's but this is one of the instances where I believe that a disagreement might be in play here. [00:20:08] is the lta at it again? those accounts are already blocked? [00:28:00] No, it's not -abigblueworld- this time. [00:30:02] Besides, it's a different LTA, who's been attempting to get me banned for no reason over being suspicious of said user. [00:42:25] What is the disagreement you are referring to? [00:42:55] As far as I'm aware the situation with Flaming is pending a CU request, with such typically being handled by Doug and thus on a bit of a waiting list (not that another Steward cannot follow up of course) [01:06:01] Have you done the investigation? TheFlamimgDide is a sockppupe [01:06:28] Yes, that. I didn't exactly agree with WG8686 being unlocked at all. I could give this a wait. *If I had a power that had to do with a CheckUser, I would have no problem handling this on my own*, but I only have 20 days left until I can regain my autopatrolled status again. [01:06:47] @YellowFrogger I don't think they have just yet. [01:08:04] Any Steward is welcome to follow-up here. I just thought I'd hear from a different Steward this time around, that's all. [15:06:43] [[Special:CentralAuth/Mugmanfan55]] There's something suspicious about this editor. I've noticed they were making a bunch of disruptive edits like these: https://crappygames.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=Category:Katsumi%27s_wikitext_showcases&diff=prev&oldid=282322 https://crappygames.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=Category:Katsumi%27s_wikitext_showcases&diff=prev&oldid=282325 [15:06:43] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:CentralAuth/Mugmanfan55 [15:06:44] https://crappygames.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=GameMill_Entertainment&diff=next&oldid=282319 https://awesomegames.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=UserWiki:Delicouswater535&diff=prev&oldid=195612 (Also this user dropped a hint, which appears to be a dead giveaway of who they are). I suspect it's -abigblueworld- again. [15:06:44]

But I'll find the evidence when I get back home. [21:13:48] Apparently there's a user who's attempting to get RangerKid51 banned for a ludicrous and/or ridiculous reason. [21:16:00] The edits on RLV are a wee bizarre, as well as the apparent root of the problem [21:20:02] However, I do see an overlap between that account and Anti villain, along with a couple of other accounts: https://reallifevillains.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=Teodoro_Obiang_Nguema_Mbasogo&diff=prev&oldid=143623 (Nicaragua Villainy) https://reallifevillains.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=Teodoro_Obiang_Nguema_Mbasogo&diff=prev&oldid=136501 (Tp) [21:20:03] https://reallifevillains.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=Teodoro_Obiang_Nguema_Mbasogo&diff=prev&oldid=131169 (Que) https://reallifevillains.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=Teodoro_Obiang_Nguema_Mbasogo&diff=prev&oldid=125304 (Anti villain) I'll find more overlapping evidence as soon as I can. @Doug / dmehus I want you to notice this as soon as you see this whenever you get out of work. [21:20:05] [url] Difference between revisions of "Teodoro Obiang Nguema Mbasogo" - Real Life Villains Wiki | reallifevillains.miraheze.org [21:20:06] [url] Difference between revisions of "Teodoro Obiang Nguema Mbasogo" - Real Life Villains Wiki | reallifevillains.miraheze.org [21:20:07] [url] Difference between revisions of "Teodoro Obiang Nguema Mbasogo" - Real Life Villains Wiki | reallifevillains.miraheze.org [21:20:09] [url] Difference between revisions of "Teodoro Obiang Nguema Mbasogo" - Real Life Villains Wiki | reallifevillains.miraheze.org [21:21:03] ye [21:26:38] What's funny is that the OP in question is possibly the same user who impersonated a WMF user back in August, which matched a Gigdsclasp sock, Napalm, which is believed that Gigdsclasp might be a sock of Anti villain. [21:30:59] Seems to be locally resolved at any rate [21:31:43] For now, at the least. But like I said, the evidence I have provided above might just be the tip of the iceberg. [21:31:43] sorry for my comment I replied to the guy that he was genuine, I didn't know about this case [21:31:46] sorry for my comment I replied to the guy that he was genuine, I didn't know about this case [21:32:01] That's fine. [21:32:19] It seems like a fairly lowish priority consideration for now in any case [21:32:28] But feel free to hold the evidence if it comes back up or is requested [21:33:24] Or I can possibly provide a bit more than what I provided here. I mean, I've been assisting CVT with any investigation for quite awhile, so I know what I'm doing. :) [21:33:50] And at present we are not investigating nor see the immediate need. [21:34:24] https://meta.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Andrew071117&diff=prev&oldid=233715&diffmode=source Oh, Andrew071117, it's been awhile. [21:34:27] [url] Difference between revisions of "User talk:Andrew071117" - Miraheze Meta | meta.miraheze.org [21:35:13] True, but do keep that in mind. If my adrenaline kicks in, I'll provide it. [21:36:11] Careful to not let the adrenaline drive all :p [21:36:22] Haven't seen Andrew in a bit, doesn't look like much has changed frankly. [21:36:44] raidarr: fyi your cloak didn't apply straight away because services wanted a nap [21:36:54] who was he? what did he do? I have the impression that he was quite active in the miraheze [21:37:40] RhinosF1, I noticed my login was a little confused, so that might have had something to do with it. Not too bothered either way tbh [21:37:55] I use IRC with the understanding that cloak is not a defense mechanism [21:38:00] At least, not a secure one [21:38:09] raidarr: yep, there was no services for a few minutes [21:38:16] Because they all split off [21:38:23] It was a networking problem [21:38:41] ooh [21:39:49] * RhinosF1 wonders what tomorrow will bring [21:40:20] progress, I hope :p [21:41:41] New problems [21:41:50] s/problems/challenges [21:41:50] Sario meant to say: New challenges [21:42:04] eh, both :p [21:42:20] raidarr: progress towards not having sanity :) [21:42:47] Oh, I likely have you beat there, I've been borrowing that stuff on bounced credit for years [21:43:23] raidarr: I probably gonna have to ring a CEO [21:43:37] If he doesn't email me back [21:43:52] Don't tell me, the CEO who couldn't get privacy and due process right if it was a barnyard door he was standing in front of [21:44:14] raidarr: yep [21:44:28] They didn't fail at getting it right [21:44:39] They managed to blow it up soecatularyly [21:45:03] any company I should know about? :p [21:46:18] No [21:46:26] They are used by Microsoft [21:46:32] he spoke again [21:46:37] But only in the UK [21:46:41] For careers [21:46:42] will you accept, rhinosf1? [21:47:17] Are you going to give him a second chance, or do you think he was wrong too much? [21:47:29] I'm 50/50 [21:53:34] He was disruptively trolling on his own talk page, and made an inappropriate complaint about the crappygameswiki. [21:54:00] Seriously, and less than 90 days? [21:55:18] This dates all the way back to last May and June, and also did some vandalism back in February of 2021. [21:56:06] Well, these are very serious things, but the vandals were literally 1 year ago [21:56:35] Yeah, but I doubt Andrew is doing anything wrong now. But I did notice his return. [22:14:00] I think Andrew is typing in a way that is just as easily saying what one might want to hear [22:14:34] But the spirit of good faith I think entails giving him a chance, with an eye out towards a longer track of sustained improvement [22:15:03] I have no idea what he did, as I'm not attached to it. Still, it's great to give people a second chance [22:15:29] There is even that phrase "vandals today can become good editors tomorrow" [22:15:47] True, but you never know. [22:24:25] You don't, which is why they need to be considered case by case; in any case a reasonable gap for them to reconsider followed by an apparent effort to communicate certainly beats the usual lta I think
