Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Bro3256/Archive

Suspected sockpuppets
He was in a discussion on merging Famicom list of games with NES games. Bro3256 made a statement and casted a vote(voting is not how wikipedia works by the way) After he was disagreed with by Pizzaplayer219 an IP address with one edit 04:42, 13 April 2023 (the edit being that talk page) followed up  Pizzaplayer219 by saying "I've previously had trouble when systems were merged (for example when looking for the best selling famicom games) so I'd vote towards having a separate SFC list. It's kind of murky, but I think saying that the Famicom is just a regional variant is a bit reductive." How would he have had problems with merged systems if this is his only wikipedia edit. 136.244.59.231 also cast a vote (possibly displaying that they're the same person because they don't know that you don't vote on wikipedia.

 * The master account tweeted this. I have feeling that the IP is more of a meatpuppet than a sock. Pizzaplayer219TalkContribs 12:39, 14 April 2023 (UTC)
 * do i need to file a different report for Bro3256 to report meatpuppetry or will the sockpuppet investigation investigate meatpuppetry too? Blitzfan51 (talk) 17:04, 14 April 2023 (UTC)

 * I think Sergecross73's comment on Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Video_games is the correct synthesis, but my reaction to the situation is "meh". There's enough here to assume good faith. I've left uw-meatwarn on Bro3256's talk page, but other than that . DatGuyTalkContribs 22:42, 14 April 2023 (UTC)
