This user was origionally named JoyRiderProdz but changed their name to TwinTurbo. Now the user is somehow using both accounts to comment on Articles for deletion/Demigodz Records, a deletion discussion for an article created by TwinTurbo. They are seemingly doing this to seem as two people, this backed up by the evidence that he changed the signature for JoyRiderProdz and removed the redirect leading to the TwinTurbo account. Also notice the blog history the user suffered while editing under the previous name and they were only unblocked due to a request to change their name, looks like they abused that privilege.

 * On April 23, 2020, with this edit at Articles for deletion/Frenzo Harami I commented: "User:TwinTurbo--the creator of Frenzo Harami--made this edit at User:Dream Focus talk page admiring Dream Focus' skill at not getting articles deleted. It was TwinTurbo's first edit to Dream Focus' talk page.  Then 12 hours later, User:Apollo825 opened an account and made this edit to Dream Focus' talk page, where Dream Focus was specifically asked to participate in this AfD discussion.  Why did Apollo825 just "randomly" leave a message at Dream Focus' talk page right after TwinTurbo?  Apollo825 stated that their old account with a lost password was User:Johnny338, but that user had never edited Dream Focus' talk page.  Something isn't right here."

OrangeSoda1, a brand new account showed up at the Robin Banks (rapper) AFD, citing pretty unknown essays (ie. WP:HEY, among other things) and it all seems very dubious given TT's past socking when their articles are at AFD. CUPIDICAE💕 23:15, 8 February 2021 (UTC)

 * - go on behaviour. TonyBallioni (talk) 23:29, 8 February 2021 (UTC)


 * Because of the precociousness of the editor's comment at the AfD, as well as this particular's sockmaster's history of sockpuppetry at AfD, ., closing. Mz7 (talk) 21:32, 9 February 2021 (UTC)

Editor Interaction Analyser shows that User:GR86, with 1119 total edits, made 52 edits to the same, often obscure articles previously edited by User:TwinTurbo.

Template:Chamillionaire gets 10 pageviews per year, yet both have edited:
 * 
 * 

Template:Mohammed Sadiq Mamdani gets 20 pageviews per year, yet both made almost identical edits:
 * 
 * 

Both also edited Sufra (disambiguation), which gets 47 views per year.

I rarely see editors adding "annual readership" templates to article talk pages. In fact, User:TwinTurbo was the only editor I ever noticed doing this regularly:
 * 

But at Talk:Army of the Pharaohs:
 * - TwinTurbo added the template banner.
 * - GR86 added the annual readership.

Both also added pictures of Japanese street racers to their user page:

 * The data in the CU logs suggest that GR86 is to TwinTurbo. They are, however, ✅ to, who they interacted with at Jay Whiss. Whatever it was they were trying to achieve by using a new account to add dubious content and an established account to 'clean it up', doing socky things at an article that was of interest to this master is highly suspicious. Along with the observations in the report, I'm convinced - blocking.  Girth Summit  (blether)  18:56, 28 February 2023 (UTC)

Basing this off of the the Editor Interaction Analyser and that Sufra (charity) was one of TwinTurbo's most edited articles. While this may be simply a case of various UPE's thought it best file than not for a record. S0091 (talk) 22:39, 11 February 2024 (UTC)


 * They are also adding the annual readership template as noted in the previous filing. S0091 (talk) 17:41, 22 February 2024 (UTC)
 * I'll note their latest edits were to promote Haim Bresheeth-Zabner (Haim Bresheeth-Zabner, Jewish Network for Palestine, Introducing the Holocaust, An Army Like No Other, among others) and an article about Mahek Bukhari. S0091 (talk) 20:11, 6 March 2024 (UTC)
