My name is Joe Rodriguez and I am an audio engineer. I own a mastering facility in New York, and I am in charge of its administration as well as its operation. I am also responsible for all statements that were made by the User:Evinatea, which was my first account at Wikipedia. I feel it's important to come out clean about who I am, and explain the frustrating circumstances that I find myself in. Even our clients have taken notice of what's happening at WP, and this is totally unacceptable (See: ). (Active) (Inactive)
 * Disclosure
 * My accounts:

On February 28, 2007, I used my mastering engineer's (Mr. Edward Vinatea) articles on the subject of music mastering, but without his knowledge or consent. I created, one article called "Music Mastering", complete with its reference links, and two Spanish versions. I did this, totally ignorant of the rules and procedures. To accomplish this, I used the User:Evinatea account (See English article: ). I was so naive and new at Wikipedia, that I even signed my reference links with my own username! (See: ). Some editors were fine with the description I provided for the mastering article, however, any hints at spam and the links were promptly deleted the following day (See: English article: ).

As you can see, I posted Mr. Vinatea's name, title and company name. It was an error on my part which I am sorry and deeply regret. However, by March the 2nd, I had learned most WP rules, and even though I tried to correct my mistakes by allowing edit reverts, and asking other editors to help me erase the "Music mastering" page (See: ), I had no choice but to create this new account (User:Jrod2), because my Evinatea, was completely useless due to Biggy P, Mike Sorensen and all his sock puppets and meat puppet attacks and accusations (See a few examples: [] ), even after I asked him civility (See: []) and now continues under "ProperManner" ).

It's very apparent to me now, the reasons for his vicious attacks: the diversion of attention from past, present, and probably future spam and vandalizing activities at WP. This user must be stopped and your help is needed a.s.a.p! According to a checkuser on May, 5 2007 by an administrator (See: ), Biggy_P matches all the listed suspect sock puppets above, therefore, a CONFIRMED vandal, highly disruptive and a deceptive spammer. He has been using Wikipedia, apparently from 2 detected locations in California, or uses the aid of a cohort, to spam and promote a business website at the Audio mastering page (See: and ). He goes as far back as August 2006 with sock puppetry and meat puppet activities with cohort account Voy7 a/k/a "R.Watts" (See: and }. His previous meat puppet accounts were permanently blocked (See: and )
 * Evidence

Biggy P's account main purpose is to give support to the reverting a of a deleted article {"Artmastering"), which had raised concerns in the past, of just being a biased promotion of a mastering studio, and particularly, of its engineer (See: ) . Because of his conduct, I believe that Biggy P is obsessed about the inclusion of this article, but I wouldn't be surprised, if there are more hidden agendas, and even more sock puppet accounts. At the moment, it looks like his cohort Voy7, is no longer using IP address 66.214.253.51, which confirmed him in the past as a vandal. His last use of WP was seen here in March 22, 2007 to give support to sock puppet Mike Sorensen (See: ).

The contribution history on this known IP address 66.214.253.251 (See: and ) indicates a relentless need for the deception and manipulation of WikiPedia and the inclusion of the so called article on "Artmastering". Nevertheless, the accounts that are popping up recently, were created to intimidate (See confirmed sock puppet account (ProperManner), give credibility or support (See confirmed sock puppet account SciFrutto) to the inclusion of said article, complete with external link to its business site (See: and reference link). This raises the concern that Biggy P and his cohort are still trying to use Wikipedia for pure financial gain and self promotion. For more information on the spam article a/k/a "Artmastering" see ). His main tactic: he regards me an outcast who is here to vandalize, and constantly reminds me and everyone, of my article submission errors. He is always calling it "spam" in order to create a disruption and a diversion from topical questions, while antagonizing me with his sock puppets's multiple role playing (See: ). In the end no one desires to participate in any discussions for fear of being tagged a sock puppet. That's how he has managed to drive everyone away. He would tag me, and everyone that opposes him, with sock puppetry accusations. At some point, I learned to do the same, but the difference is, I did it in self-defense. His sock puppet User:Mr.Strong account, summarizes and accentuates Biggy P's frustration to get rid of me and along with my remarks at the audio mastering talk page (See:). I believe the main reason for Biggy P's anger, and his need to get me blocked or vanished from WP, is the deletion of his "Artmastering" reference link, and my opposition to the inclusion of its article section. He has shown that he won't stop harassing me for that, and unless you block his sock puppets, he will never stop his deceptions to antagonize me. Making him pay with the loss of his puppets might make him see that, deceptive tactics and disrupting behavior, doesn't pay, and has no place at Wikipedia. '''I therefore request, that Biggy P a/k/a Mike Sorensen, Mr. Strong, ProperManner, Scifrutto and his meat puppet account Voy7 along with the associated IP addresses 66.214.253.155 and 66.214.253.51, be blocked forever and for good. Thanks very much for your attention.'''.Jrod2 19:06, 7 May 2007 (UTC)
