 * Suspected sockpuppets


 * User compare report Auto-generated every hour.
 * Editor interaction utility

User:Fun_Realms was a user who has done promotional edits to the similarly named page of Free Realms. Since then, Playerselite42 is only just a few hours old and has resumed editing the page, indeed; their only edit is to the page, and added this edit where they said that there were rumors, which I think may be a guise to increase popularity of the supposed 'return' of the game. But I do think that there would be enough for a WP:DUCK block, but I am requesting checkuser as it might be ambiguous. Thank you. Tutelary (talk) 18:36, 6 July 2014 (UTC)

 * I suspect there is proxy use here. That said the computer and browser information are the same for both accounts. -- DQ   (ʞlɐʇ)  21:44, 6 July 2014 (UTC)

I think this is a rather simple SPI report, all their names seem to correspond to eachother and their contributions seem to indicate the same thing.

Funky_Realms only edits Free Realms, even though created today, adds unsubstantiated but very specific information on how the game will be returning and even offered inside information of a certain 'Miner' character:

Free Realms: Elezibeth 4 days old only has one edit to the article Free Realms and that is to say that it is being worked on very hard and will be back up soon!: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Free_Realms&diff=prev&oldid=618070056

BellaRealms is a bit ambiguous but the telling diff is this one where they in botched grammar try to renew hope for Free Realms. Tutelary (talk) 00:25, 28 July 2014 (UTC)

 * Technically ❌, but i'll ping for a proxy check, just to verify that those aren't in use. --  DQ   (ʞlɐʇ)  13:04, 29 July 2014 (UTC)
 * I am not finding any open proxies. Tiptoety  talk 16:04, 1 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Per CU. If they are disruptive, they will have to be blocked based on that. Bbb23 (talk) 20:17, 16 August 2014 (UTC)
