User:Dicksg

 * Suspected sockuppeteer


 * Suspected sockpuppets

I believe this user is a sockpuppet for Dicksg, recently blocked (User_talk:Dicksg) for repeated (over 20 times!) vandalism to National Service in Singapore. Namely, he engaged in a revert war with several other users including User:Terence Ong, User: Vsion, and User: Rifleman_82 repeatedly inserting this unencyclopedic, POV, and original research text:
 * Evidence

One person account "i came to singapore at the age of 2 from malaysia,studied from k1 to jc 1,than at the age of 17 i cancelled my pr and went to uk to study.i came back to singapore at 21 and got an	employment pass.after 5 years of ep i applied for pr and got it. i dont have to serve a 	 minute of ns.i have a letter from mindef congradulating me that i am not liable for ns(ever). so i suggest you go down to singapore immigration and change your ic from pink to blue. 	the only advantage for pink ic holders are a subsidised 4 rm hdb flat. what is the value of a ns exempt letter from mindef ? priceless. i rather die than convert from blue to pink. i pray that the mentor lives for another 20 years and maintain the current status quo than i can retire a rich man in malaysia. malaysia boleh !!! btw my son will be learning this hat trick from his old man me." Another person account "Same case here with me....! i was in malaysia studying til Form 6 (singapore's JC level) ....my dad is a 1st generation PR and i got my letter to serve NS after my studies. All i did was to renounce my PR and i didnt have to serve. 3 months later, i applied for a local uni as a malaysian and got in. After my degree, i was on EP and 1month after i got my first job, the singapore government offered me PR AGAIN.......i pity you singaporean......but its a loophole indeed. BTW, i was on scholarship during my studies in singapore as well so it was absolutely free...........GREAT FEELING....!!! I LUUVVVVV SINGAPOR

For his trouble, he received five warnings from 14 Sep to 17 Sep, having been blocked once on 14 Sep (8 hours), before finally being blocked indefinitely on 17 Sep.

The new user, User:Safgeneral, is believed to be the sockpuppet of User:Dicksg because there is a similarity in the style of posts. Specifically, the posts appear to be placed randomly, with no regard for the context of the section. The posts are mere cut-and-paste statements, no attempts being made to craft the addition to fit the context of the article.

 * The Dicksg user was blocked indefinitely on 9/17/06 at 18:02 for vandalism. The Safgeneral account was created on 9/18/06 at 10:02, and made its only edit, a nonsense addition to the  article three minutes later .  This is the same article that had been the focus of Dicksg.  The manner of vandalism, insertion of large blocks of irrelevant text, is similar.  The timing of the account creation is suspicious.  Neither user used any edit summaries.  Although this new account doesn't have much of a contribution history to compare, it does look like a case of block evasion and continued destructive behavior to me.
