User talk:Benson Verazzano

This appears to be a checkuser block, meaning that someone with Checkuser priveleges checked your IP and found that it matched one Greg Clegg used. I hate to say that such blocks usually do not get overturned. -  Jeremy  ( v^_^v Cardmaker ) 07:09, 24 June 2009 (UTC)

The following appear to be the same person:

Unless you have some other explanation of the relationship between these accounts... – Luna Santin  (talk) 07:57, 24 June 2009 (UTC)


 * Eight accounts?
 * 1. Gregory Clegg is retired. How can anyone be Gregory Clegg's sockpuppet?
 * 2. Melchiord posted what looks like a year or so before Gregory Clegg. If anyone is a sock, Greg is a sock of Melchiord not the other way around.
 * 3. Won't last long has one contribution: retiring Clegg, then nothing.
 * 4. Smeggly C. Badde has NO contributions! Nothing! How can he be a sock? He hasn't done anything!
 * 5. Consensus is not truth was blocked for a username issue before contributing.
 * Which leaves TheThankful and myself and Dunkin Donut Boy.


 * There are many possible reasons other than sockpuppetry.
 * Seeing as such a hoohar was made over the so-called "outing" of Mathsci issue, I'm not prepared to speak about my situation other than offer possible alternatives.
 * a) Meatpuppets: Friends or guests
 * b) Multiple users in the same apartment/house
 * c) People piggybacking off a users nonpassworded wifi.
 * d) One or two were sockpuppets, and one or two were not.


 * What I will state unequivocally is that my name is not Gregory Clegg, and I do not know anyone by that name.
 * I also know for a fact, that I am not the only person who uses this internet connection.
 * Additionally, as far as I can see, none of these other users have ever contributed in any of my topics, nor at all while I've been a member. How is that sockpuppetry?


 * What happens when the current 6 month block on my IP address is over? Is anyone who ever registers on this connection doomed to be labeled a sockpuppet? Even if, like me, they're the only user posting from it? Will I ever be able to contribute to Wikipedia again? --Benson Verazzano (talk) 05:02, 25 June 2009 (UTC)
