Please note that Use:Rraj8 nominated this SPI for speedy deletion as vandalism, and I have added them to the report. Also, the nominator only just registered today and creating this SPI was their second edit after creating a user page. I don't know what's going on here, but something looks suspicious. Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 12:29, 4 September 2018 (UTC)


 * The nominator is obviously Nsmutte as are Rraj8 and Rraj9 (I've already AIV reported the latter). Rraj6 is a different user who is unlikely (judging by behavioural evidence) to have anything to do with Rajaduraiviamla; I think Rraj7 is probably a sock of Rraj6 but might be another Nsmutte clone - that's only relevant insofar as Rraj6 may or may not have been socking, of course. --bonadea contributions talk 12:50, 4 September 2018 (UTC)

 * This edit makes me think it might actually be nsmutte... CHRISSY MAD  ❯❯❯  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯  12:36, 4 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Seems possible, yes - I've blocked indef, as it's obviously trolling whoever it is. Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 12:38, 4 September 2018 (UTC)
 * True, it does seem a litle too clever for Msmutte, but a while back played a game where thir socks would set up ANEW reports against other socks, with the intention I suppose of tying us up in knots. This all seems rather...?  —SerialNumber54129  paranoia / cheap sh*t room 14:51, 4 September 2018 (UTC)

 * this all happened rather quickly, but could you specify what is confirmed? If LOOkranthi is confirmed to Rajaduraiviamla then there is work to do. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 13:04, 4 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Clerk relisting and self-endorsing for CheckUser for an underlying rangeblock if possible, otherwise this is likely to go on for a while. If there is no range pattern then any IP in use is likely an open proxy and should be reported. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 13:04, 4 September 2018 (UTC)
 * My apologies Ivanvector, LOOkranthi was confirmed to Rajaduraiviamla. RickinBaltimore (talk) 13:22, 4 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Rajaduraiviamla and Rraj6 are on the same ISP, which is different than the others. They seem .  Rraj5, Rraj7, Rraj8, Rraj9, Rraj10, and LOOkranthi are all probably Nsmutte.  Rajaduraiviamla and LOOkranthi are on different ISPs. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 13:42, 4 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Hmm, so Nsmutte might have spotted a genuine sock suspect and piled in with his own trolling. Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 14:28, 4 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Well, ok, now I'm confused. I have one Checkuser saying LOOkranthi and Rajaduraiviamla are confirmed, and another saying they're on different ISPs. I realize that these aren't mutually exclusive results, but it's not making things any more clear to me. can you guys reconcile your results?
 * As for Nsmutte jumping on an actual separate sockmaster, I doubt it. It's not outside the scope of their past trolling. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 14:44, 4 September 2018 (UTC)
 * well yes, that's what I mean, but you said it better ("?"). Basically, Nsmutte's modus operandi is wasting our time, and what's going on on this page fits the motive. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 15:17, 4 September 2018 (UTC)
 * I don't mean to confuse anything ... I've deleted Sockpuppet investigations/Rraj5 which was created by an Nsmutte sock. I have LOOkranthi on an Nsmutte range, along with Rraj7, and together with behaviour it's a certainty. All others that I've seen, apart from Rraj6, are almost certainly Nsmutte. I can also say this is not one of the other regular LTA imposters. NinjaRobotPirate's 'possilikely' for Rraj6 seems accurate, technically speaking. but I don't really think it's enough for a block. -- zzuuzz (talk) 19:45, 4 September 2018 (UTC)

 * I asked for some protection, just fyi so you can either endorse or deny. But not DENY :)   —SerialNumber54129  paranoia / cheap sh*t room 12:52, 4 September 2018 (UTC)
 * I was just about to protect it myself, but I see Ritchie333 beat me to it. Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 12:52, 4 September 2018 (UTC)
 * You beat me to the blocking, so I think we're square :-) Ritchie333 (talk) (cont)  12:53, 4 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Teamwork! Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 12:54, 4 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Thanks both—apologies, I assumed the RFPP would sit there for an hour ot two first, in the tradional fashion :) but has anyone ever seen Ritchie333 move that fast before out side of a pub?! Wowzer! :D —SerialNumber54129  paranoia / cheap sh*t room 12:56, 4 September 2018 (UTC)
