[01:25:08] [discord] [[Special:CentralAuth/Texas Rose 1988]] Naleksuh You said this account is probably ApexAgunomu, right? [01:25:08] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:CentralAuth/Texas_Rose_1988 [01:25:09] [discord] [01:25:10] [url] Global account information for Texas Rose 1988 - Miraheze Meta | meta.miraheze.org [01:26:46] @DarkMatterMan4500 when did I say that? [01:27:25] [discord] Oh, I must've misread that then lol [01:28:59] [discord] Ah yes, AIPaD was the one who pointed it out. [01:29:24] I'm not saying I didn't say that [01:29:33] [discord] I strongly suspect that being the case [01:29:39] That wasn't a rhetorical question. I might have said it then forgot [01:29:44] [discord] But I didn't have grounds to CU [01:29:46] [discord] now I do [01:29:58] [discord] I gave sysop to see what'd they do and now I see it's probably a sock [01:30:07] @Agent if you think they're apexagunomu then why did you give them sysop [01:30:15] Oh [01:30:21] That's really dumb [01:30:58] [discord] I didn't have grounds to CU so I gave it to them to see what they'd do [01:31:12] [discord] now I have grounds to do a CheckUser [01:31:33] That's not good [01:31:41] Don't provoke people to do shit [01:32:32] [discord] @Agent If you suspect that it's ApexAgunomu, why bother giving them the sysop flags? It's like giving an abuser more power to corrupt a kingdom. [01:32:53] "to see what they'd do" [01:33:00] Pretty bad reason [01:33:04] [discord] Provoke? [01:33:11] [discord] If it's a legitimate user then there's no issue there [01:33:17] [discord] otherwise, they'd expose themselves [01:33:42] Also, Agent declined an rfp that said `For testing` yet grants one that said `Testing` [01:34:08] [discord] That's because that user already had another account with sysop and bureaucrat too [01:34:18] [discord] which is why I asked why they needed another account [01:35:06] [discord] If you have grounds to perform a CU, then why not make the necessary check as soon as the word gets out? [01:35:11] No, you asked what they wanted to test [01:35:40] [discord] ...with the new account [01:35:49] Because they didn't have grounds until they protected Protection test and archived a talk page...apparently [01:35:54] [discord] I'd keep an eye on eerily familiar account names that ApexAgunomu bases her usernames on, like stuff relating to Super Mario or Pokemon. [01:36:12] And that was a username pattern [01:36:25] [discord] The archiving is a behavioral pattern present in previous Apex socks [01:36:44] Yeah [01:36:53] I'm just saying this shit is uncool [01:37:09] And clearly dark matter man also says don't provoke people [01:37:19] [discord] ^ [01:37:54] [discord] That's like giving a cop a badge and a gun, only for them to shoot at random people. [01:38:08] [discord] That's like giving a random person a police badge and a gun, only for them to shoot at random people. (edited) [01:38:24] [discord] That's a rather bad analogy [01:38:42] [discord] No matter, but I think you get the point. [01:44:56] I was more concerned about giving it "to see what they'd do" [01:45:09] So it's a bad analogy for that tspecific sitaution, bu is a good analogy in giving ApexAgunomu sysop permissions [01:47:38] [discord] Well I mean, it could've been a legitimate user so either way, it was also done with the intent to give the tools to them if it were a legitimate user [01:47:56] [discord] Anyhow, they are a sock, using an obscure connection they haven't used in a while [02:02:03] [discord] https://polcompball.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/ChildishTakes @Agent Vandal alert. [02:02:04] [url] User contributions for ChildishTakes - Polcompball Wiki | polcompball.miraheze.org [02:02:41] [discord] I wanted to lock as a vandal but it seems like a real user? [02:03:21] [discord] https://polcompball.miraheze.org/w/index.php?diff=295830&oldid=295827&rcid=206277 This seems a bit strange. [02:03:22] [url] UserWiki:AlphaChicken: Difference between revisions - Polcompball Wiki | polcompball.miraheze.org [03:06:35] [discord] My analogies do tend to vary though. [04:45:00] Hm BrandonWM is back from their self-unblock [04:45:13] @Agent did you mean to edit RFP after you locked the account? [04:45:20] Looks like BrandonWM decided to do it themself anyway [16:46:38] a sysop on commonswiki should please delete this page https://commons.miraheze.org/wiki/Awais_Shaukat , we don't need it at all [16:46:39] [url] Awais Shaukat - Miraheze Commons | commons.miraheze.org [16:54:50] ugochimobi: done [18:59:10] [discord] Thanks CosmicAlpha
