MoreThings is an interesting angle in this. First, you've got this confession [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:SlimVirgin&diff=prev&oldid=281754494] that Buttermilk and Lassie use the same PC, so obviously they will have the same IP, and hence no investigation is needed. Meanwhile, on [[WP:ANI]], you've got MoreThings (first entry March 25) asking what a checkuser is about.

:Continuing with that, we see Lassie begging that the investigation be stopped [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/Incidents&diff=281759889&oldid=281759697] now that the user has confessed to having the same PC (though not to sockpuppetry - that was MoreThings' words). The only reason I can think of, to ask for the investigation to stop, is that it might uncover more info. Hence, it should continue.

::Baseball bugs what do you mean by "that was Morething's words"? Which words are you referring to? For the record, [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/Incidents&oldid=281732759#Montanabw:_Disruptive_Behavior this] is what the page looked like when I made my post. Half an hour later all hell is let loose. Please tell me which words you are referring to. Regarding the checkuser, I asked for confirmation of what it is, and then I gave the go ahead for it to be used. Those were my only contributions. Thanks. --[[Special:Contributions/81.86.40.39|81.86.40.39]] ([[User talk:81.86.40.39|talk]]) 20:48, 4 April 2009 (UTC) |

Revision as of 20:48, 4 April 2009
I've been asked to add a code. No idea which code is correct. Perhaps code F as it doesn't fit into the others?

User:Buttermilk1950 is a new account of someone who says he is 16 (though the writing suggests otherwise), who has focused on Rodeo and related articles, editing in something of a disruptive style. He recently posted a complaint to AN/I about another user, and in the course of the discussion, he appears to have mistakenly posted as User:ItsLassieTime (also a new account), in response to a query directed at Buttermilk. User:MoreThings (another new account) then arrives at the discussion and posts as though the apparent sockpuppet error didn't happen. See here.
- ItsLassieTime is now trying to mitigate his error by claiming to be Buttermilk's mother. [1] But he posted about Buttermilk using the word "I." [2] SlimVirgin talk|contribs 19:44, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
- Another post from ItsLassieTime pretending not to know that he posted as Buttermilk1950, and calling User:Josette "filth." [3] SlimVirgin talk|contribs 20:06, 4 April 2009 (UTC)

Evidence submitted by user:MoreThings
SlimVirgin is mistaken about the timings. I posted at 6:31, after Josette posted at 5:54. ItsLassieTime then posted after me, but above me, at 7.03. When I posted "as though the sockpuppet didn't happen", I did so because the sockpuppet hadn't happened. I'd appreciate it SlimVirgin or one of the admins would reformat the page to reflect the chronological order of the postings. --MoreThings (talk) 19:58, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
- Comments by other users
For what it's worth, I'm pretty sure User:MoreThings posted before the entire sockpuppet incident started: Morethings at 17:31 and User:ItsLassieTime's first post at at 18:03 Kafka Liz (talk) 19:48, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
MoreThings is an interesting angle in this. First, you've got this confession [4] that Buttermilk and Lassie use the same PC, so obviously they will have the same IP, and hence no investigation is needed. Meanwhile, on WP:ANI, you've got MoreThings (first entry March 25) asking what a checkuser is about. [5] Worried, perhaps? Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots 20:06, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
- Continuing with that, we see Lassie begging that the investigation be stopped [6] now that the user has confessed to having the same PC (though not to sockpuppetry - that was MoreThings' words). The only reason I can think of, to ask for the investigation to stop, is that it might uncover more info. Hence, it should continue. Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots 20:13, 4 April 2009 (UTC)

- CheckUser requests
{{RFCU}} is deprecated. Please change the case status parameter in {{SPI case status}} to "CURequest" instead.
- Checkuser request – code letter: F (Other reason )
- Current status – Endorsed for Checkuser attention. Requested by SlimVirgin talk|contribs 19:28, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
- Clerk, patrolling admin and checkuser comments
Additional information needed: Please provide a code letter. SPCUClerkbot (talk) 19:32, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
Confirmed that Buttermilk1950 and ItsLassieTime are related; Checkuser investigation is continuing. Risker (talk) 19:55, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
- Clerk note: I'm going to switch the accounts, and list this under ItsLassieTime if there are no objections (just renaming the case). ItsLassieTime is the oldest account so far, and is more likely to be the master. Synergy 20:04, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
- Go for it. Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots 20:07, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
- No objection from me, Synergy. SlimVirgin talk|contribs 20:09, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
- Unrelated MoreThings does not appear to be related to the other two accounts. Investigation is continuing. Risker (talk) 20:19, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
