Primary account (User:ChrisStefan) is a single-user-account dedicated to creating and defending Bruce Copley. The socks all have a single contribution at Articles for deletion/Bruce Copley using essentially the same type of arguments. ChrisStefan has said he's inviting people he knows to join in, but the so for they all seem to speak/think the same way he does. --Rob (talk) 16:22, 6 February 2011 (UTC) Rob (talk) 16:22, 6 February 2011 (UTC)

I am not creating multiple accounts for myself. I have used two computers at different locations to make posts as the user ChrisStefan only. I notice that there is a tool called "checkuser" WP:CHECK] which can be used to obtain technical evidence related to this charge, and I have no objection to this tool being used to clear up these allegations, in fact I welcome this. It is a recorded fact that openly I invite people to make objective pragmatic contributions to the discussion - I have not asked anybody for personal support. The user Rob refuses to consider the arguments submitted and instead fixates on categorizing people into suspicious "for" or "against" camps. In a request for mediation I have already asked the community to consider bad-faith on the part of this user - maybe this allegation provides further proof of this.
