There seems to be a pattern of edits attacking standards organization Accellera and related articles. All of their Accellera-related contribs were made during the first two weeks of September 2011. A breakdown shows:


 * Pagetests9: Edited Accellera (diff) adding a personal attack against UVM and OVM.
 * Banksupper9: Changed all ocurrences of "Accellera" to "Deaccellera UVM" in Accellera (diff), SystemVerilog (diff) and Universal Verification Methodology (diff1 diff2). It should be noted that I couldn't find any references to a name change of the company, or even to the term "Deaccellera". A couple of weeks later, (s)he added to Universal Verification Methodology (diff) a section which seems to be a rant on UVM or at least some of its users.
 * Noisestand175: Added an attack on UVM/OVM to SystemVerilog (diff), Universal Verification Methodology (diff) and Open Verification Methodology (diff).
 * Jokestand9: Changed "Accellera" to "Deaccellera UVM" in SystemVerilog (diff) again, while at the same time commented on UVM in the changelog.
 * Papercause2342: Added a source code example complete with UVM bashing commentary to both SystemVerilog (diff) and Open Verification Methodology (diff).

Also notice the similar usernames and that all of the accounts were created during the same two weeks of September 2011, two or three days apart each.

Lastly, the socketmaster's account is the only one with contributions not mentioned above. Facugaich (talk) 00:22, 14 September 2011 (UTC)

Pagetests9 blocked 48 hours for disruptive editing and socking. I will not object for an indefinite block since this user doesn't appear to be editing constructively. Rest of the accounts blocked and tagged. Elockid  ( Talk ) 02:39, 14 September 2011 (UTC)
