Okay, how does checkuser confirm? Hasn't the IP been banned for three times now?--[[Image:Umbrella-White.png|12px]][[User:MisterGame|<span style="color: maroon; background-color: white">'''''Thadeous Oakley''''']][[Image:Umbrella-White.png|12px]]</span> [[User_Talk:MisterGame|<span style="color: black; background-color: white">'''''Talk''''']]</span> 22:43, 6 January 2011 (UTC)
:Yep. I'm presuming the accounts were made beforehand (which explains the user bans being ineffective), but I've banned the IP itself twice, so I have no idea what's going on there.--{{User:Yonnua Koponen/signature‎}} 23:23, 6 January 2011 (UTC)
::Then there is something wrong here. This has happened before though, [http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php/UDWiki:Administration/Vandal_Banning/Archive/2009_07#Izumi_Alts where] Izumi somehow managed to bypass an IP block and created 17 puppets. --[[Image:Umbrella-White.png|12px]][[User:MisterGame|<span style="color: maroon; background-color: white">'''''Thadeous Oakley''''']][[Image:Umbrella-White.png|12px]]</span> [[User_Talk:MisterGame|<span style="color: black; background-color: white">'''''Talk''''']]</span> 23:41, 6 January 2011 (UTC)
:::Frankly, I don't honestly care, because we can just keep banning her accounts when they crop up and reverting her edits. She'll give up before we do. Also, there's no evidence that it was just one IP in those cases. The idea was that she had access to several.--{{User:Yonnua Koponen/signature‎}} 23:58, 6 January 2011 (UTC)
::::Proxies, maybe? --{{User:Axe Hack/Sig}} 00:04, 7 January 2011 (UTC)
::You need to uncheck the " Block anonymous users only " box, or it only bans anon's (who can't post anyway, so it's a bit of a redundant option here anyway). I unbanned and rebanned it. It should stick now <small>-- <span style="text-shadow: #bbb 0.2em 0.2em 0.4em">[[User:Boxy|<span style="color: Red">boxy</span>]] <sup>[[User talk:Boxy|<span style="color: Red">talk</span>]] • [[The Rules|teh rulz]]</sup> 00:32 7 January 2011 (BST)</span></small>
:::Wrong, wrong, and most definitely wrong. Did you ever stop to think that just maybe I'm better at this than you? FYI I have a single IP. I simply know how to mask it from your primitive blocks. I'm not even doing this for any real reason anymore, aside from laughing at your attempts to keep me from coming back. It's not going to work. ^_^ [[User:Via|Via]] 21:19, 8 January 2011 (UTC)

I just noticed a similar editing pattern by {{Usr|Lady Kikyou}}. Might be worth looking into. {{User:Vapor/sig}} 06:58, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

So do you guys run a checkuser on any new accounts that make edits to the Lockettside Valkyries page?--{{User:Giles Sednik/sig}} 14:08, 6 January 2011 (UTC)
:Nope. A couple of sops have Izumi's favourite pages on a watchlist and if anyone edits them they go look at them, and its a case by case thing. --{{User:Rosslessness/Sig}} 14:32, 6 January 2011 (UTC)
::Ah.  Makes sense.  Actually based on his/her editing history it probably wouldn't be unreasonable.--{{User:Giles Sednik/sig}} 16:34, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

Someone might want to checkuser [[User:Sixclaw|Sixclaw]] as well. If Vapor's talk page isn't hint enough, check the timing on Lady Kikyou's last contib and Sixclaw's first contrib. Even if checkuser doesn't come back as a positive match, it's still worth checking anyway. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 08:14, 8 January 2011 (UTC)
:Thanks for at least confirming I'm not paranoid. I honestly wouldn't be surprised. {{User:Vapor/sig}} 08:18, 8 January 2011 (UTC)
::It doesn't show up as being an alt (on a quick IP check), at this time. Don't let the sockpuppetry make you too jaded, guys. Even if it proves to be an alt in the long run, treating it as a genuine account doesn't reflect badly on you at all <small>-- <span style="text-shadow: #bbb 0.2em 0.2em 0.4em">[[User:Boxy|<span style="color: Red">boxy</span>]] <sup>[[User talk:Boxy|<span style="color: Red">talk</span>]] • [[The Rules|teh rulz]]</sup> 09:44 8 January 2011 (BST)</span></small>
