Theshitman is an SPA that was created at 23:24 Nov 23 and immediately started attacking Mughal–Rajput War (1558–78). Among other changes, the editor twice changed the outcome of the war and. The account was indef'ed about 30 minutes after its creation as a vandalism-only account and for the obvious username violation. The only edits were to Mughal–Rajput War (1558–78). Two hours later Thetoolkitbrah was created with the password being emailed

108.49.134.183 made the identical edit changing the outcome of the war on Nov 25 at the same time of day that Theshitman had been active. The edit was reverted, and the IP was warned at 23:22. The IP has no other edit history. Two minutes later Thetoolkitbrah appeared and made two edits to Mughal–Rajput War (1558–78), the second of which was the identical edit as the IP and the earlier edits by Theshitman.

Supershaan admits to being Theshitman and Thetoolkitbrah here, and now also below. I doubt it's a legitimate complaint of an incorrect block, but I have replied with an explanation of the appeal process on User talk:Meters. Meters (talk) 18:18, 1 December 2014 (UTC)

''Accused parties may also comment/discuss in this section below. See Defending yourself against claims.'' Hello it's Supershaan aka thetoolkitbrah aka theshitman I am using multiple accounts and I don't use theshitman and the thetoolkitbrah I currently use Supershaan.

Thanks

New account created after last sock blocked. Just hours after protection expired made identical edits to Mughal–Rajput War (1558–78) that master and other socks made changing the victor of the war. ,, and. Connection to one sock admitted in this bogus talk page warning.

 * I really don't know if I'm allowed here, but I'm still going to input my 2 cents. I looked through each of the accounts above and the accused, and each of them share the exact same message left on Meters' talk page (this by Supershaan and this by Thesnowymanlan). All of them have edited the same article with the same edit (this by Thesnowymanlan, this by Supershaan, this by Theshitman, and this by Thetoolkitbrah). In my view, according with the evidence, they are all socks and violate policy. -- A Wild Abigail Appears!  Capture me.   Moves.  20:14, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

Latest sock with same focus on changing the outcome of Mughal–Rajput War (1558–78) from a Mughal victory to a defeat as master and the other blocked socks.

 * After reviewing the original user and the suspected sockpuppet's contributions, it is very clear that the two are most likely the same person to me. Both accounts seem to be solely focused on changing the outcome of the Mughal-Rajput war. This is very specific fact-altering. BenLinus  1214 talk 03:29, 16 December 2014 (UTC)

 * by Terabacha with by Ahindustani,  by Supershaan,  by Thetoolkitbrah. Meters (talk) 21:46, 22 December 2014 (UTC)

Latest in a string of socks. Similar trolling behaviour as some previous socks: Created one day after previous sock blocked and immediately (within minutes) shows up on my talk page to defend previous sock and support changing the outcome of Mughal-Rajput Indian wars. Note that the link he provides that supposedly supports his version (a victory by the Rajputs) is actually discussing the continuing success of the Mughal. Edits user pages of unrelated editors who have added to my page, for example this on an editor's page who was blocked 6 months ago after one edit to my page and a number to Park Vista Community High School (no other edit history) and created blank user pages for an editor who has made exactly two edits, one to an article and one to my talk page commenting on my undo.

Already blocked as a suspected sock of Theshitman by User:Floquenbeam. Being listed here just for documentation. Same MO as previous socks. A new account is created shortly after previous sock blocked, has an interest in Indian articles, and soon shows up on my talk page even though we've had no interaction. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/Incidents#Meters for some of what went on this time. Note that User:Sniping Goonz and User:Ian Doyle Capita are mentioned in that thread as possible socks of Ranabhai, but I have not included them here as I believe they are unrelated (and both are already indeffed).

Standard M.O.: account created immediately after previous sock blocked, trolls my talk page with one of first edits, interested in history of Indian wars, threats of admin action, and personal attacks.

 * Second Floquenbeam's concerns. Since that user's first interaction with me was extremely WP:PRECOCIOUS (talking about a sockpuppetry case I filed a while before then, for which there was no record on my talk page). Ian.thomson (talk) 23:57, 26 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Actually, I'm also suspecting good hand and bad hand gaming because of the following concerns:
 * 1. Both users (the good-faith one and the bad-faith one) write in minuscaps.
 * 2. Both users never use a : at the beginning of their replies to comments.
 * 3. Superflashieboy123, instead of removing personal attacks from the bad-faith user, inmediately notifies me of the incident, without doing anything to the personal attacker. --<b style="color: red">Toon</b><b style="color: blue">Lucas</b><b style="color: red">22</b> (<i style= "color:green">talk</i>) 00:04, 27 February 2015 (UTC)

What are you talking about how could I be a sockpuppet of User:Cooliemandude this is ridiculous how could you say that i am a sockpuppet the reason why he created an acount on wikipedia because he also loves video games and argued with me and plus when he was blocked and if i was a sockpuppet the ip address was blocked too and i dont use that ip address becuase i could still edit pages like i edited User:ToonLucas22's talk page so there i can not be proven as a sockpuppet and this suspect does not make any sence so don't accuse people withought good evidence because it does not prove anything. and the reason why i did not move personal attacks because another editor already removed edits before i could check my talk page. Thank you Superflashieboy123 (talk) 20:05, 27 February 2015 (UTC)

New sock puppet called User:Fuckinsuperflashieboy123 who created an acount just now and harrased me on my talk page removed his personal attacks and warned him on his talk page. Thank you Superflashieboy123 (talk) 02:07, 28 February 2015 (UTC)

Unfortunately, due to this user which might be a sock of Cooliemandude, I am more convinced that Cooliemandude and Superflashieboy123 may be 2 different persons. I can't fully guarantee that, though. --<b style="color: red">Toon</b><b style="color: blue">Lucas</b><b style="color: red">22</b> (<i style= "color:green">talk</i>) 02:09, 28 February 2015 (UTC)
 * I really don't see how it changes things one way or the other. Obviously, if they are separate accounts, we've got a sockpuppeteer and an innocent user.  But, if he was doing good-hand/bad-hand socks, specifically using one to attack the other (and the latter asking others to revert edits he can revert himself, up until that MO was pointed out), then that would be just another account meant to try and convince us otherwise.  Ian.thomson (talk) 02:56, 28 February 2015 (UTC)

I've blocked user:Bodybuildar as an obvious sock of User:Cooliemandude, but I'd like to request a checkuser because I suspect one of the "targets" of this person is actually the same person, playing a "good hand/bad hand" game. User:Superflashieboy123 created an account at roughly the same time as Cooliemandude yesterday, has been pretty disruptive himself, got into an argument with cooliemandude that real people would likely not have gotten into, thanked me for blocking cooliemandude but immediately warned that he was certain that cooliemandude would create a sock and restart the harassment. I very strongly suspect this is one person playing silly buggers. --Floquenbeam (talk) 23:42, 26 February 2015 (UTC)
 * , in the future, if you want to request a CU check, you should change the status of the case to "CU requested". I'm endorsing your request because it looks possible to me that this new user is the same person. I added him to the suspected list.  Vanjagenije  (talk)  17:17, 27 February 2015 (UTC)

A new account created soon after last Theshitman sock blocked, and manages to find my talk page with one of his first edits (in this case while I was on a wikibreak and not making any edits at all). Same interest in Indian topics, particularly historical wars. See previous reports for similar behaviour by previous socks. Meters (talk) 05:12, 16 March 2015 (UTC)

Note also that he also found the talk page of User:ToonLucas22 with the edit immediately before the one to my talk page ToonLucas22 was involved in the most recent SPI for this user. Meters (talk) 05:19, 16 March 2015 (UTC)
