==={{user|Rick Browser}}===
 
I think it would be in the best interest that I restate my request. I admit, my original stating of the facts was a bit vague- it was certainly lacking in essential details.
 
For the past half a year, I have been stalked by an indefinitely banned user who originally went by the name [[user:Brazil4Linux| Brazil4Linux]]. He wikistalked me and my friends, vandalized my userpage (and theirs too) repeatedly and viciously [[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User%3ADoom127&diff=32541408&oldid=32468797]], [[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User%3ADoom127&diff=32541602&oldid=32541540]], [[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User%3ADoom127&diff=32541654&oldid=32541602]] insulted me repeatedly using his sockpuppets of BreakingRules, GroundZero, ForeverWatch and others [[http://en.wikinews.org/wiki/Talk:Microsoft_invested_4_billion_USD_into_Xbox_division]] and interjected into any possible conflicts that might arise; and finally, somehow he managed to find out my WIFE'S NAME and created derogatory harassing sockpuppets [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Amanda_Davis]], [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Daniel_and_Amanda_Davis]], using the aforementioned name .
 
Which brings us to the present week. There was a disagreement regarding the ESRB article between me and [[user:Pagrashtak|Pagrashtak]]- and we each created one edit. All at once, however, my instant message box began to flood with harassing links to a "ha ha" website, one that bore the label "No ESRB on Wikipedia" and crashed my computer, causing me to lose over an hour's worth of work. I assumed that it was Pagtarak (an error on my part), and I ''' admit''' that I wasn't tactful in the next couple edits. Feeling desperate, I even went so far as to erase my userpage.
 
However after calming down, I felt that I needed to resolve this conflict, I contacted Pagrashtak about the IMs. To my surprise, he had no knowledge or involvement in them at all, which led me to suspect that B4L was the one responsible. I apologized via email to Pagrashtak, and almost immediately after, [[user:Rick Browser|Rick Browser]] begins to push into the argument, applying some rather vicious labels towards me [[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3APagrashtak&diff=46486196&oldid=46431866]] (and at the exact same time, IP addresses that trace back to Brazil4Linux begin to post gloating messages on my friend's pages, bragging about me leaving)[[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3AHinotori&diff=46325821&oldid=43349774]], [[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Jedi6&diff=prev&oldid=46325875]].
 
 
Look, I know that users are entitled to privacy and respect. But I feel that have the right to know if [[user:Rick Browser|Rick Browser]] is another Brazil4Linux sockpuppet. Given the above facts, I believe I have stated my case appropriately. Brazil4Linux uses DialUOL and Veloxzone addresses that end with the .br suffix.
 
If after reading this, you still feel that my request is inappropriate, then I can do nothing more. Cheers, [[User:Doom127|Daniel Davis]] 01:41, 3 April 2006 (UTC)
 
:: Doom127 vandalized my [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User%3ARick_Browser&diff=46570395&oldid=38495857 userpage] because I supported [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Computer_and_video_games#ESRB Pagrashtak] in ESRB dispute and ''[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Requests_for_CheckUser&oldid=46633050 deleted]'' my answer on this section today. --[[User:Rick Browser|Rick Browser]] 05:34, 3 April 2006 (UTC)
 
::: Actually "Rick", a "this user is a suspected sockpuppet of" template is NOT vandalism, given the fact that you ARE a suspected sockpuppet, and on top of that, I put it there at Pagrashtak's '''own''' suggestion, after we had discussed you at length. You've never "supported" anyone, all you did was call me a troll, just like you've always done from the start. That's the entire reason why I've PUT this check out- because I believe that you are the very same Brazil4Linux that's been stalking me for over half a year. A "suspected sockpuppet" template isn't vandalism- what you did (which I have very carefully detailed above), is vandalism, stalking (both on and off wikipedia), AND personal attacks. I don't think anyone who looks at the evidence will be disinclined to show me that you are indeed the very selfsame Brazil4Linux who was banned for bad behavior.

:Could you provide a list of known IPs used by Brazil4Linux for us to compare to? We don't generally reveal personal information like IP addresses; without a list, all we can do is reveal the IPs we find, which would be a violation of Rick Browser's privacy if they do not match. Providing a list of known IPs, particularly if you can provide on-Wikipedia evidence that they have been used by Brazil4Linux, will make it much easier for us to run a check, and for appropriate action to be taken if there is a connection. <span style="color:#696969;">[[User:Essjay|<span style="color:#696969;">Essjay</span>]] <sup>[[User talk:Essjay|<span style="color:#696969;">''Talk''</span>]] • [[User:Essjay/Contact|<span style="color:#696969;">''Contact''</span>]]</sup></span> 06:01, 3 April 2006 (UTC)
 
:: I have placed [[User:Doom127/knownip| here]] the list of IP known IP addresses that Brazil4Linux and his known sockpuppets have used on Wikipedia. There may be other IP addresses, of course- he has a tendency to switch his IP after each edit (but they all trace back to the same veloxzone or dialuol ___location).
 
::: Further revelations- even as I was compiling the list, this user placed a personal attack on the Request for Admin page of user Jedi6, someone whom with the Rick Browser username has had NO prior contact with- in fact, the only person who has ever to my knowledge bore a grudge against Jedi6 was in fact Brazil4Linux. You can take a look at it [[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Requests_for_adminship/Jedi6&action=history| here]]. [[User:Doom127|Daniel Davis]] 06:41, 3 April 2006 (UTC)
