I noticed many similarities among these users. Iniced has made it known they do not approve of trivia. ThetriviaBlanker and Thegetingridoftriviauser were single purpose troll accounts who would remove trivia from the same Tom and Jerry articles Iniced did. Same deal with the example IP I listed. I know there are many more troll accounts like ThetriviaBlanker/Thegettingridoftriviauser and IP's that I just can't remember at the moment. Iniced also has a very unique way of replacing apostrophes with commas in edit summaries and occasionally misspelling their name as "inced" as seen on their talk page: Compare this edit summary with this, and also this and this with this. Call me crazy, but I think these are all the same person. If this really is just a coincidence though my sincerest apologies, Iniced. Sro23 (talk) 03:53, 7 August 2016 (UTC)

This edit summary: they replace apostrophe with comma, just like Iniced. For whatever reason, Iniced IPsocks seem to blank user and user talk pages, and Roaded has been reverting 86.141.246.179's edits, another IPsock (so actually self reverts) on User:TheSpoonman and User talk:TheSpoonman.  Here Iniced also edited the page:. Iniced has ownership issues. Sro23 (talk) 19:59, 9 August 2016 (UTC)

 * Alright, I've gone ahead and cut-and-pasted your report under Iniced. Clerks, I apologize if this was the wrong way to do it. Mz7 (talk) 05:20, 21 June 2017 (UTC)


 * ❌.--Bbb23 (talk) 08:48, 21 June 2017 (UTC)
 * I'm marking this case as closed. The addition of trivia to the Timid Tabby article is similar, but this account is longstanding (created in November 2011), and the account's early edits show subtle differences in article interest to Iniced. Combined with the CheckUser result, I do not think we have enough evidence that sock puppetry has occurred here. Respectfully, Mz7 (talk) 17:39, 21 June 2017 (UTC)

It sounds like there is a big connection between these two editors - especially at User:Pkbwcgs/sandbox. Both users were harassing and blanking my sandbox. I wonder if there is a sock master operating both of these accounts. Pkbwcgs (talk) 17:32, 6 October 2017 (UTC)
