Suspected sockpuppets


Yesterday ModerateMike729 got blocked for some rather extreme edit warring. [1] This morning, a new account appeared restoring this user's preferred version [2] - it's pretty obvious the blocked editor is attempting to create a sock puppet to circumvent their ban. Also pinging @SarekOfVulcan: as the admin who oversaw the block of the sockmaster; they may be interested in this behaviour.

And this one is just too funny for words. [4] Simonm223 (talk) 13:30, 17 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Bbb23: " I did not check ModerateMike729 as there is no evidence of socking by him." <-- In those two diffs presented by Simonm223, Molarcons pretty much admits he's ModerateMike729 [5] [6]. Can you please check it? Volunteer Marek (talk) 14:44, 17 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Clerk, CheckUser, and/or patrolling admin comments

Molarcons, who is the older account, is Architect 134 (talk · contribs · count). Blocked without tags. I did not check ModerateMike729 as there is no evidence of socking by him. Closing.--Bbb23 (talk) 14:03, 17 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Volunteer Marek: The admission is often part of his MO. See my Talk page for an explanation.--Bbb23 (talk) 14:47, 17 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I am quite willing to defer to Bbb23's expertise in this case. Simonm223 (talk) 14:52, 17 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
