Both accounts have only a few edits, one to create a default user page the next a comment on the Global Warming talk page in the style of Scibaby.

It's not entirely clear cut but User:HavBlu is a newly created account. His first and only actions have been to edit the Global Warming Talk page in a manner consistent with Scibaby. This seems an unusual way to edit for someone entirely new to Wikipedia. The problem is that if he is a genuine new user I'm happy to take the time to address his concerns, however if it's just Scibaby again I see no point and he's wasting our time again.--IanOfNorwich (talk) 15:35, 10 August 2011 (UTC) IanOfNorwich (talk) 15:35, 10 August 2011 (UTC)

 * . All three blocked and tagged, but I'll endorse for sleepers. And we just had this case yesterday - is there any sort of IP block that can be done? —  Hello Annyong  (say whaaat?!) 13:52, 13 August 2011 (UTC)
 * We just had this case yesterweek, yestermonth, yesteryear, yesterdecade, and since time immemorial, for over 1200 confirmed and suspected puppets. Part of the sordid tale is at Long-term abuse/Scibaby. I heartily welcome any reasonable suggestion to clean this up. --Stephan Schulz (talk) 14:43, 13 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Yeah... has this abuse been mentioned to Abuse Response to see if they can do anything - report it to Scibaby's ISP, for example? —  Hello Annyong  (say whaaat?!) 17:39, 13 August 2011 (UTC)
 * As far as I know, he uses a large number of different ISPs and IP adresses. ArbCom should be aware of the problem, many checkusers definitely are. --Stephan Schulz (talk) 17:49, 13 August 2011 (UTC)
 * It would be well worth something being done if it can. Reverse DNS lookups on a representative sample of the IPs listed on Long-term abuse/Scibaby gives:
 * 24-205-128-2.dhcp.mtpk.ca.charter.com


 * 24-180-28-2.dhcp.psdn.ca.charter.com


 * 24-180-0-2.static.snlo.ca.charter.com


 * 24-205-66-2.dhcp.psdn.ca.charter.com


 * 173-116-129-2.pools.spcsdns.net


 * 72-57-128-2.pools.spcsdns.net


 * 66-215-0-2.static.lsan.ca.charter.com


 * 71-80-169-2.dhcp.psdn.ca.charter.com

 * 99-204-0-2.pools.spcsdns.net


 * 71-94-133-2.static.mtpk.ca.charter.com


 * sfcc-208-115-75-2.smartcity.com


 * 173-127-0-2.pools.spcsdns.net


 * in other words only 3 ISPs are used (probably over the course of some years?):Charter Communications, NETWORK SOLUTIONS and smartcity.com (once). Geolocation in all cases I checked points to near LA, California. So talking to his ISP might be a start, if not given the scale of his abuse I'm sure there are legal avenues that can be pursued against the individual...--IanOfNorwich (talk) 19:13, 13 August 2011 (UTC)

At this point I'm unwilling to reveal the reasons, as I fear Scibaby will change his behavior making him harder to spot. If whoever is reviewing this is unfamiliar with Scibaby or is unconvinced that a checkuser is worthwhile please let me know on my talk page and I'll provide my reasoning.--IanOfNorwich (talk) 08:14, 31 August 2011 (UTC) IanOfNorwich (talk) 08:14, 31 August 2011 (UTC)

Some weird stuff going on here. ✅ the following are the same, but I don't see the behavioral link to Scibaby and they're on the other side of a country:
 * seems to be a match to previous Scibaby socks sbased on behavior and technical info.  TN <b style="color:midnightblue; font-size:larger;">X</b> Man  13:18, 29 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Based on this page history, you ran into a cross-wiki spammer (while not relevant to Scibaby, maybe a rangeblock is possible?). I have blocked and tagged Maxellus. Prolog (talk) 14:33, 29 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Most of these accounts were created here, so I've blocked and tagged them all as socks of AnnGresveel, who is the oldest account. —  Hello Annyong  (say whaaat?!) 23:48, 29 September 2011 (UTC)

The usual. Well, almost. The username suggests it might be a different sockpuppeteer as it is similar to a certain well-known wikipedia editor and that sort of name choice would be new for scibaby to my knowledge.. Sailsbystars (talk) 06:19, 24 November 2011 (UTC)
