 * Suspected sockpuppets




 * User compare report Auto-generated every hour.

The IP address was also used on Ground101's talk page to appeal his block for spamming. On their original talk page he was warned and then openly admitted he was just trying to spam the Freedom Debt Relief page because he supposedly received spam from them. Now that Ground101 was blocked, 71.244.30.84 redid the EXACT same edits that Ground101 did. That IP was warned as well about spamming (see their talk page)I thought it may be coincidence, but once I looked at that IP's history, it was obvious that it was the same person. Now, Phdoc0 is doing the exact same thing and the exact same edits all around the time that Ground101 did edits as well. All evidence points to these 3 people being the same person and using their account to only spam, versus being a productive member of the WikiPedia community. On his block appeal you can see where he admits to spamming the page and vandalizing it on purpose. He claims the information he is repeatedly posting is public information and should be listed, but he includes personal comments and a formatting that isn't proper for WikiPedia pages (all caps for example). I cleaned it up and included some of the information he has posted (and I used references) in order to try and appease this guy, but he is persistantly and blatently breaking WikiPedia community standards and obviously trying to be the bigger person and appeasing him didn't work. Can you please help? I've never had vandalism or spam issues before. One of the admins recommended filling out this form. Thanks in advance! Elementrider77 (talk) 06:23, 4 July 2011 (UTC)

Blocked Phdoc0 here. The IP has not been blocked, as I'm unsure of whether it is static or dynamic. m.o.p 06:43, 4 July 2011 (UTC)
 * The IP hasn't edited in a few days, so we can leave it for now. Relist if/when there are further developments. —  Hello Annyong  (say whaaat?!) 13:11, 4 July 2011 (UTC)

This account was already blocked for spam, but this IP address who is the same person is still soapboxing and spamming. At one point that IP was blocked. I'm guessing the block expired. Thanks for your help! Elementrider77 (talk) 08:28, 10 July 2011 (UTC)

The person(s) at the above 2 IP addresses are going through and editting several pages all related to Freedom Debt Releif (in particular 71.244.30.84). It is almost the same exact type of Vandalism that got Ground101 and Phdoc0 banned for sockpuppetry. What can we do to get these guys permanently banned? The only contributions they have are in vandalism and the admins have already made it clear in the past that it will not be tolerated from them. I assume theses are the same guys as before. Thanks in advance! Elementrider77 (talk) 16:26, 30 August 2011 (UTC)
