Wikipedia talk:Requests for checkuser/Case/Milomedes

Hi, checkuser is welcome! I (Milo) had been trying to figure out a way to force a checkuser on me and Anynobody, and I came up with the idea of both of us voting in AfDs and then declaring we were suspected socks, until someone complained here. We didn't do that, and were working on another non-checkuser idea, but it looks like Gene has solved the problem for us.

While we're considering this checkuser request let's add to the list:
 * Suspect sock Anynobody; Really Spooky has made this accusation.
 * Suspect sock Sahajhist; an off Wiki poster  has made this accusation.
 * Suspect sock Sfacets; according to Sajahist, the same off-Wiki poster above has previously made an accusation that Sfacets and Sajahist are the same user.

Hmm, if Milomedes and Parzifal418 are the same person, why would they spend so much time colluding with each other? I thought socks wanted to influence other editors. The writing styles aren't identical, but two well-educated people who like the same kind of music probably would write in a somewhat similar fashion. They would surely have the same POVs about the music they love.

Really Spooky claims to have noticed stylistic similarities between Milomedes and Anynobody, but I haven't yet spotted them.

My positions on Wikipedia sockpuppets (socks) are: Milo 03:25, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
 * I, Milo, don't have any sockpuppets.
 * 1) I think use of same topic socks suggests an insecure personality who worries that their presented opinions have insufficient influence. On the contrary, I think my opinions have adequate influence, and I would be surprised if editors who know me, would say I lack confidence in my opinions.
 * 2) Why would I want any socks, when I want credit for everything I write on talk pages? I wouldn't, because socks dilute credit.
 * 3) Why would I risk having any socks when long-term tendentious editors like Gene Poole use the accusation for harrassment when they get routinely reverted by more than one editor? I wouldn't.
 * 4) Why would two editors and an off-net reader suddenly accuse me of socks in less than a month? Hehe, I must be more important than I thought. If I'm all that important, I sure don't need socks!
 * 5) Why would I try to use socks when I thought my posts were uniquely distinguishable? Oops, maybe they're not as unique as I thought, but I did think that up until I was confused with Anynobody! :)
