Suspected sockpuppets

Note: This user has been editing generally in good faith, but has engaged in some rather inexplicable behavior, and there are major WP:CIR issues and warnings, see User talk:Scout MLG. I'm not completely sure what they're trying to accomplish by switching to the sock account, presumably it's an attempt to avoid scrutiny. They were warned about sock puppetry on the master's talk page, but they have continued to edit as the sock since then. In any case there doesn't seem to be a legitimate reason for the second account, so I guess it should be blocked. Evidence: Apart from the username similarity, Scout MLG's last edit was to their own talk page:. Two minutes later MLG 420 Master began editing, on the same page:, adding their signature to warning templates that Scout MLG had added earlier (did I mention inexplicable behavior?). Also, on April 4th, Scout MLG asked a question about MediaWiki:Blockedtext: ; on the 6th, MLG 420 Master added a link to the same text:. IamNotU (talk) 18:07, 6 April 2019 (UTC)

 * Well,, so I guess we can see what happens next. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 15:10, 7 April 2019 (UTC)
 * No clue what's going on here, but I don't think a block is warranted for socking..? If it's funky enough that it needs administrative action, take it to ANI. Closing without action. TonyBallioni (talk) 01:54, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
