The first two listed are much older Grawp socks, obvious on sight and already blocked; I'm including these to demonstrate a link to some of the listed usernames, which are based on song lyrics. The next four were active tonight, and are likewise blocked, around the same time these last three were created; I'm including them for technical comparison. Also interesting to note, it appears Grawp is back to creating accounts locally, rather than globalizing them from other wikis.
 
So. These last three seem related to me; does technical evidence support that? May be worthwhile to check for underlying proxies/ranges, in the meantime. &ndash; <span style="font-family: Garamond">[[User:Luna Santin|<span style="color:#1E90FF;">'''Luna Santin'''</span>]] ([[User talk:Luna Santin|talk]])</span> 09:18, 23 August 2008 (UTC)

{{done}} Generally, Grawp gets checkusered pretty thoroughly. It's probably better at this point to add the name of the latest account to the IP check section, just in case there were no checkusers on line at the time he showed up. [[User talk:Thatcher|Thatcher]] 00:03, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

All three are accounts suspected to be used by [[Wikipedia:Long term abuse#Grawp|Grawp]] (The first is the original; the second two both vandalized my userpage along with various other pages.) If we can find a common IP address or range, we can perhaps locate Grawps real IP which will be useful in an abuse report that I've filed. Even if we only turn up proxies, we can at least block them.[[User:Urban Rose|<fontspan colorstyle="color: purple"; font-family: face="comic sans ms;">Urban</fontspan>]] [[User talk:Urban Rose|<fontspan colorstyle="color: red"; font-family: face="Papyrus;">Rose</fontspan>]] 23:45, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
 
{{clerk request}} Merge with [[Wikipedia:Requests for checkuser/Case/Grawp]] please.
 
*Grawp operates from a range that can not be blocked without potentially affecting a large number of users, and sometimes he goes elsewhere. If you can get his ISP to take action, then any checkuser can get the exact IP he used for any given edit, and his ISP should be able to track him down from that. However, release of the IP must be approved by the Foundation attorney, Mike Godwin. [[User talk:Thatcher|Thatcher]] 00:38, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

I’m not an administrator here. I’m an ordinary Wikipedian. I’ve had it up to here with Grawp on other Wikis where I am an administrator. If you apply a range block against Grawp with any luck his Internet Service Provider will terminate the contract. The ISP won’t want to inconvenience very many customers for the sake of one account. Then with any luck other ISP’s might blacklist Grawp. [[User:Proxima Centauri 2|Proxima Centauri 2]] ([[User talk:Proxima Centauri 2|talk]]) 06:12, 15 July 2008 (UTC)
:Not gonna work, as Grawp uses [[Tor (anonymity network)|TOR]] as a supplement should his range(s) be blocked. Besides, Wikipedia can't block ranges larger than /16 (due to technical issues); if Grawp's operating from a larger range we cannot block it. -<span style="color: #32CD32;">''[[User:Jéské Couriano|<span style="color: #32CD32;">Jéské</span>]]''</span> <span style="color: #4682B4;"><sup>([[User talk:Jéské Couriano/Discussions|<span style="color: #4682B4;">v^_^v</span>]] [[Special:Contributions/Jéské Couriano|<span style="color: #4682B4;">Mrrph-mph!</span>]])</sup></span> 06:43, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

{{Takenote}} I have no idea what to do here. There are no other registered accounts associated with those IPs or the user Cjhard.

: Yup, that's Grawp. Maybe you should ask [[User:Jéské Couriano]]; he's done the Open Proxy thing before and knows Grawp well; believes it's a [[botnet]]. Some of this may be due to posts on an off-wiki-forum such as [[4chan]]; see [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk%3ASenang_Hati_Foundation&diff=179160504&oldid=179131098].

I may have leapt too quickly to the assumption of this being Grawp. If it is whomever has left the ''"I suggest you leave…"'' message on my and [[User:J Milburn]]'s talk pages, then there's still the D&D commonality. Whoever it is is quite persistent. I have no objections to this section of this page getting split-off to another. I've reverted this sort of thing on the order of a thousand times.
