 * Suspected sockpuppets


 * Evidence submitted by Tarage

User:MisprisionofTreason shows all the signs of being yet another sock created by the previously indefinently banned User:Tachyonbursts. The account in question was created and immediately went back to his old stomping grounds speaking in a manner identical to that of User:Tachyonbursts. He is well known for creating a new sock every few months to launch into his tirade against September 11 attacks. I have absolutely no doubt in my mind that this is User:Tachyonbursts with yet another single purpose account, so please preform a check user so we can be free of him for another couple of months.

Also forgive me, this is the first time I have requested a check user, so I'm not sure if I got the template right. Please correct it if I made a mistake. Thank you. --Tarage (talk) 18:48, 14 September 2009 (UTC)

 * Forgive me if this is the wrong place to comment, but while the user User:Tachyonbursts has indeed not edited in a long time because he was banned, I am almost positive that this user is User:Tachyonbursts, and therefor I don't understand this 'Stale' comment. He is editing even today. --Tarage (talk) 22:37, 14 September 2009 (UTC)
 * EDIT: Nevermind, I didn't understand what stale meant. Ignore the above. --Tarage (talk) 23:08, 14 September 2009 (UTC)

Indefinitely blocked per positive behavioral evidence. Tagged, as well. MuZemike 03:52, 15 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Conclusions

Evidence submitted by Tarage
It has not been a long time since User:Tachyonbursts's last sock, User:MisprisionofTreason, was blocked. Following the pattern of evasion, I believe User:ManComesAround is already showing the signs of being yet another sock. His first edit was to the same talk page that User:MisprisionofTreason attacked, as well as the editor showing no signs that they are new to editing. The type of name, the manner of speaking, and jumping directly to the Sept 11th talk page makes me believe he could be a sock of User:Tachyonbursts. This may be premature, but given User:Tachyonbursts's past and the amount of damage he can do in a short amount of time, being overcautious is not a bad thing. Thank you. --Tarage (talk) 02:21, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

Evidence submitted by Turian
The very first edits by this user were on the talk page for 9/11. This has been a problem for some time now, and they keep coming back for more. The four above people include two blocked accounts and two suspected accounts. I know there isn't much for me to say. Also, check the current conversatons at Talk:September 11 attacks.

 * I've simply had to take a look behind the ban of the two 'transparent' editors, there, at Venus III, administrate Turian gave following warning:


 * 'Please stop pushing the conspiracy theories concept or the sporadic thoughts of further investigation'.


 * Stop pushing sporadic thoughts? Perhaps there's a problem after all? Praxidikai (talk) 22:47, 8 March 2010 (UTC)


 * I don't even know what you are trying to imply by bringing it up. –Turian  ( talk )  23:00, 8 March 2010 (UTC)
