A Malicious Sockpuppet by someone who uses other peoples’ usernames? Here are the usernames that got copied: Twocompany, The Martain, Rangers13, Har071 and JKL1235. I think that’s a Malicious Sockpuppet.

Yup, there was a malicious sockpuppet around yesterday. All of those accounts were blocked infinitely, and the IP behind them was blocked for two weeks, I think.

That’s good. I don’t like malicious sockpuppets.

Hey! You’re back from your wikiBreak!:smiley:

You’re back from your year long wikiBreak @JKL1234 !:stuck_out_tongue:Yesterday was insane…I didn’t really like the fact that the were impersonating forum regulars, especially a NABer…I’m also glad they were blocked.

@Readingirl I never took a wikiBreak! Double:stuck_out_tongue:

Haha, your sock puppet said you were because wikiHow was ‘stupid’. No one believed him:slight_smile:

What did he do to impersonate me? Create a Village Pump Thread that said: “Very Foolish, Naive, and Stupid Ideas- By TheMartian?” Oh, right. My 3 months experience automatically makes the thread’s title change to that when it is seen by long-time contributors.

“Emulate” means, as I’m sure you know, to copy with the intent of equaling or excelling. I don’t think this is what happened here. The copying is from the username, not what was posted. This person has a low opinion of your posts, and created this username to make fun of them; that doesn’t mean that anyone else has the same opinion. What did “Twocompany” do? I searched the name and didn’t come up with anything.

@Twoscompany he/she created a thread with random letters, like this: jgereewql (title) Klhviyyigdwcyusclcdebdcwojgcdojfhfjel.

Syntax error. (What? It works for computers and my TI calculator.) I meant to say impersonate. Thanks for pointing that out…

Fascinating. I’m astounded by his/her good taste, originality, and cleverness.:wink:

And class. Definetley class:wink:At first glance at the first post of this thread, I thought that Twoscompany, Rangers31, Har017, etc (the actual, dedicated users) were being called malicious sockpuppets!:stuck_out_tongue:

:smiley:I probably would have, but I was in the list, so I noticed the “two” instead of “two’s”.

Oh, I didn’t get a sockpuppet that typed random letters that were fascinating? Darn it!:stuck_out_tongue:

Ummm…

Ignore Conor Flemming. We know they’re not malicious sockpuppets!:slight_smile:Man, you’re a good sockpuppet.
