Line 39:

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|<fontspan colorstyle="color:#1E90FF;">'''Luna Santin'''</fontspan>]] ([[User talk:Luna Santin|talk]])</span> 09:18, 23 August 2008 (UTC)

:The first, oldest example are now {{StaleIP}}, so not much use.

Line 109:

*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)
