 * Suspected sockpuppets




 * User compare report Auto-generated every hour.


 * User H tan H epi tas account was created just hours ago before giving third opinion in Assam talk page.
 * User H tan H epi tas account became inactive again for few days after complaining against user Bhaskarbhagawati, which shows that H tan H epi tas was created for purposes. Here is his activity log.
 * User H tan H epi tas had threatened as well, "Watch your mouth and accept a third opinion. If you don't, User:Chaipau should file a complaint at the appropriate section" - while user Chaipau did file complaint against user Bhaskarbhagawati
 * This H tan H epi tas account was created by user Chaipau to resolve a dispute in his favour which is an offense in Wikipedia. I believe indirect and or direct threat is also an offense. 130.65.109.101 (talk) 18:30, 6 September 2012 (UTC)

I have no opinion or comment on the merits of the report. &mdash; KuyaBriBri Talk 20:17, 6 September 2012 (UTC) Partially withdrawn in light of my comment below. &mdash; KuyaBriBri Talk 14:45, 7 September 2012 (UTC)
 * I suspect this is payback for Sockpuppet_investigations/Kurmaa/Archive. Chaipau (talk) 00:26, 7 September 2012 (UTC)

Well it appears that I have once again been had. After review, I have the following to say about the reporting user's claims, in order: I recommend closing this report as having no merit. &mdash; KuyaBriBri Talk 14:45, 7 September 2012 (UTC)
 * This is not in and of itself evidence of wrongdoing, nor does it indicate sockpuppetry.
 * Wikipedia is not compulsory. We are all volunteer editors and we all edit when we can. Periods of inactivity by any user should not be construed to be wrongdoing.
 * This is not evidence of sockpuppetry; it just means that two editors agreed that this user's actions warranted a report to administrators (I have no comment on the merits of such report).
 * A quick look at the log for will show that this is not the case.

Also note that in the meantime, 130.65.109.101 has been blocked as a sockpuppet of Kurmaa (Administrators' noticeboard/Archive239). -- Gyrofrog (talk) 16:28, 11 September 2012 (UTC)

A reply to Accusations

 * Thank you KuyaBriBri. At last somebody reasonable in here. Some people here need to get a life. Fast. Is there any serious administration here or is it a playground? Do you think that we are all teenagers / students with nothing better to do than logging in and editing wikipedia all the time? Or has it ever occurred to you that some of us are multilingual and we edit other language versions of wikipedia too? Since when "watch your mouth" is a "threat"? You need to get out in the real world more.
 * And FYI, I don't "support" Chaipau. I don't even know Chaipau. I am a scientist and as a third party I supported his version of writing the Assam Etymology, simply because it was better written and better supported with sources. Peer-review is part of what I do in real life too. Have a look at my profile. Why would Chaipau get in so much trouble to build a detailed alter ego? He should be schizophrenic.
 * Chaipau is also very calm and civil. I am flammable and at the verge of losing my civility in here, because this place is getting out of control. It's full of rules, procedures and regulations that either are beyond common sense or nobody applies.

 * As suspected, IP 130.65.109.101 belongs to San Jose State University, California. It has been blacklisted by dnsbl.sorbs.net and SORBS Dynamic IP Addresses. Another student who abuses the university's resources and hides behind them. --H tan H epi tas (talk) 20:32, 8 September 2012 (UTC)

Not hiding from sockpuppet(s)
I am not hiding. I will be there to meet defendant face-to-face when needed. I see that defendant already acknowledged "payback" - a return on an investment he made - this is good for him as penalty may be less.

It is not new thing that SJSU IPs have been hijacked where hijackers have been found to have come from countries like China, Burma, ...

I think threat is not covered in this complaint.

Thank you

 * I suspect User:130.65.109.101 is User:Kurmaa, who was blocked because of sock puppetry . Are you, 130.65.109.101, suggesting that you are currently not hiding but that you are forced to use your IP because your request for unblocking was  for making a personal attack, for one?  Kindly let us know if you are Kurmaa.  Chaipau (talk) 19:15, 10 September 2012 (UTC)


 * I agree with User:Chaipau. IP 130.65.109.101 and User:Kurmaa need to be investigated for sockpuppetry. IP 130.65.109.101 appeared all of a sudden on the issue of Assam Etymology and started making accusations here and there against all those - including myself - who happen to have a different opinion on the article. The sarcastic and offensive, often non-sensical style of English used, is a consistent trait of the same user. Btw, "I will be there to meet defendant face-to-face when needed" - is THIS a threat? Because nobody's meeting me face to face, that's for sure! --H tan H epi tas (talk) 19:27, 10 September 2012 (UTC)


 * Reading your text again, IP 130.65.109.101, are you or are you not writing from San Jose State University? Because your IP is that of said University. If you are not writing from the University, this means that you are hacking/using a proxy that hacks the IP and use it as a cover. Explain. --H tan H epi tas (talk) 20:25, 10 September 2012 (UTC)


 * Irrelevant. As the defendant you have a right to face me and I shall be present when needed. 130.65.109.101 (talk) 21:15, 10 September 2012 (UTC)
