, and here's the talk page of this article with all three accounts commenting one after another.
 * User:Franklin.vp "retired" on March 4, 2010 right after they angrily voted to delete, and then commented in RFD of the article I created.
 * User:Abisharan account was created on march 7.
 * 1) At 11:42, 24 March 2010 and at 10:59, 24 March 2010 User:Abisharan attacked me so severely that their comment was over sighted.
 * 2) Then the user used this IP address to continue their attacks two of which were oversighted at 17:38, 30 April 2010 and at 17:32, 30 April 2010, and the third one is here. The IP (read Abisharan) was blocked for those attacks.
 * 3) After that harassment and wikihounding never stopped. User:Abisharan was blocked 2 times, both times for harassing me.
 * 4) After second block the user posted 5 unblock requests that all were declined. The user was told to leave me alone.
 * user:Thoraeton was created on June 28 (3 days later after the last of Abisharan unblock requests was declined, and while they still were blocked, so probably the account was created from other IP), and the very first edit was the edit at the talk page if the article I created.
 * 1) Today user:Thoraeton made a comment at the talk page of New Antisemitism directed at me
 * 2) Besides all three of them vote on FPC.
 * 3) Please take a look at user pages of user:Abisharan and user:Thoraeton. There's a clear similarity in those.
 * 4) I've already shown the incivility of user:Abisharan, and in user:Thoraeton incivility is still present: . User:Franklin.vp was also warned about incivility (please see 3 consecutive posts at their talk page)
 * 5) I've checked the user contributions and found out that all Thoraeton, Abisharan and Franklin.vp edited the same not very popular article:

Franklin.vp account has done nothing wrong, but Abisharan and now Thoraeton are wikihounding, and harassing me. Abisharan made a new account with a solo purpose to go on with their harassment.Franklin.vp is definitely the same user. Its account was edited by the same IP

To the closing administrator
As I have explained before user:Abisharan has been wiki hounding and harassing me for a long time. I asked them many times to leave me alone. They were warned to leave me alone, but they never did, just the opposite. They were blocked 3 times for harassing me two times when they attacked me as user:Abisharan and one time, when they attacked me as IP 128.100.216.170.

The user has an agenda to hunt me down. Please see what they said about attacking me: "But it certainly was not an attack. More like a hurtful surgical healing procedure that opened a wound to purge a tumor". I has been extremely hurt by those sadistic attacks by user:Abisharan, who believed they are the God.

And now they created a new account user:Thoraeton to get rid of the block record of the old account user:Abisharan, and talk page history, to continue wikihounding me. Please save me of wikihounding and harassement by that user. Thanks.

Two points after I read NuclearWarfare comment:
 * user:Thoraeton account was created almost 3 days before user:Abisharan's latest block expired, so it was block evasion.
 * 1) If only one of the accounts is blocked indefinitely why not to block a new one? The old one has a record, which a new one does not, but I truly believe that the both accounts should be blocked one indefinitely and the other at least for a month. Block evasion and continuing wikihounding should deserve more than just a warning. Besides the user continued their trolling even today using the same IP. Thanks.--Mbz1 (talk) 00:30, 27 July 2010 (UTC)

 * Took an early look. ✅ that all the named accounts and IPs match. (Franklin.vp, however, is stale.) --jpgordon:==( o ) 02:36, 26 July 2010 (UTC)

Blocked and tagged. Dougweller (talk) 16:00, 27 July 2010 (UTC)
 * I believe that these types of account switches are a violation of WP:SCRUTINY. Abisharan should be blocked indef, and Thoraeton should either be blocked or warned that if he does this again, he will be indef blocked the next time. NW ( Talk ) 00:17, 27 July 2010 (UTC)

I blocked Scitydiac for this edit, their third one. I would like checkuser confirmation that Scitydiac is the same person as Thoraeton. If they are the same person, Thoraeton's block should be extended to indefinite. NW ( Talk ) 15:59, 28 July 2010 (UTC)

I have already blocked Grapebowl indefinitely for harassment of Mbz1. A checkuser would be nice to confirm this. NW ( Talk ) 01:33, 21 August 2010 (UTC)

Doesn't it quack so much that it has to be the same person without the need for a CU? It admits to being connected to the same IP as Franklin and suggests that Mbz1 changes her password to a random string to make her current id inaccessible in exactly the same way that the Franklin socks say they used to disable the Franklin account. Never mind its settling on exactly the same user to harass as the rest of the Franklin socks.

Now has someone reported the abuse to Rogers?--Peter cohen (talk) 10:24, 21 August 2010 (UTC)

 * - Self-declining, per below NW ( Talk ) 03:00, 23 August 2010 (UTC)
 * There is no real need to do a checkuser in this case, so instead I will just close this up. NW ( Talk ) 03:00, 23 August 2010 (UTC)

The IP made only 2 edits both on Jewish pirates, both the same. I warned IP about vandalism. Almost immediately user:Iyow2 account was created, and right away it went to defend IP. That's why I have all reasons to believe that user:Iyow2 and IP is the same user although user:Iyow2 is pretending to be a different one. If IP and user:Iyow2 are different users then I have I am very sure that user:Iyow2 is not a new user, but rather an old user, who's hounding my own contributions. --Mbz1 (talk) 17:31, 15 September 2010 (UTC) Mbz1 (talk) 17:31, 15 September 2010 (UTC)
 * SPI was merged but I do not believe that either IP or user:Iyow2 is a sock of user:Franklin.vp Tahnks.--Mbz1 (talk) 18:17, 15 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Well, I guess I had a better opinion about user:Franklin.vp. Thanks for not believing my intuition that proved to be wrong.--Mbz1 (talk) 18:20, 15 September 2010 (UTC)

user:Franklin.vp and all his socks are known for wikihounding me. Today the user made edit at Jimbo's talk page in an hour or so I gave Jimbo a barnstar. Also this message at Lar's talk was made right after I posted there. The user mostly contributes to FP nomination process, which the other socks did too. It was noted that the user does not behave as a new editor, but then they did not know who the user is. I do know. --Mbz1 (talk) 05:28, 8 October 2010 (UTC)
