Instantnood case sockpuppet theatre
revealed.
Line 10:
 
*[[User:MarkSweep|MarkSweep]] asked about sockpuppetlike behaviour in the Instantnood case (currently in evidence), specifically Jianq (an impersonator of Jiang), 160.39.195.88 and 50Stars. Looking at these, checking what the IPs are and seeing who else is using them where and how, I'm wondering who in this matter ''isn't'' running a sock ... I'll be looking more closely at those involved in the case and will write up any findings later today - [[User:David Gerard|David Gerard]] 10:19, 29 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 
*:User:160.39.195.88 is User:Amerinese, pretending to be a different person
(classic sockpuppet). User:Jianq is someone coming in from Comcast cable IPs, no matching usernames. User:50Stars is User:DINGBAT and User:Bond007 (both sockpuppets). I'll be asking devs to look deeper into the database when I have better questions to ask. - [[User:David Gerard|David Gerard]] 12:15, 29 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 
*LevelCheck acted in an arguably troll-like manner ("socratic editing") from early on, and Ambi raised the question in accepting the case of a sock puppet. I looked and there was no evidence of a match with anyone else in the past week - [[User:David Gerard|David Gerard]] 23:40, 26 Apr 2005 (UTC)
