 * Account name is a direct quote from one on my posts. The name implies some kind of self appointed representative of that group.
 * Created account, and the first thing user does is harass me.
 * User account created today, yet is using phrases and continuing a discussion from a long time ago.
 * This account is an attempt to harass me anonymously, to accompany non-anonymous recent harassment.

TheMathPeople looks like somebody's sockpuppet, but I don't know who. The first edit, cited in the evidence section, seems to be an attack against Gregbard as he explains. The second and third edit are to add a period (.) to his userpage and talk page in order to make it appear that this is an older account. This is a typical sockpuppet's trick, one which I used for one of my own sockpuppets last year before I returned to moral integrity.

I will ask Gregbard if he has any more information. I don't know if we have enough evidence to justify a block or a checkuser. Shalom (Hello • Peace) 20:31, 13 May 2008 (UTC)


 * This is probably someone who contributed to bullying me from the discussion at Template talk:Logic, Talk:Interpretation (logic), Talk:Formal interpretation, and/or Talk:Descriptive interpretation. This person is also probably a member of WP:MATH. My bet is User:Jok2000 or User talk:Cokaban if I had to bet. Although Hans has been pretty moody lately too. Hmm.


 * The account creation is a day and a half before the first edit; that might eliminate some folks who hadn't been involved before this account was created, if there are any. GRBerry 04:09, 14 May 2008 (UTC)

Agree IP is probably not TheMathPeople, but TMP is a sock of someone, so I indef'd him. — Rlevse  •  Talk  • 21:35, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
