Suspected sockpuppets
  1. User:Ryoung122 was topic banned from longevity-related articles a year and a half ago
  2. He was warned for breaking his topic ban before, and his response suggests that he felt his ban should no longer be in force
  3. 92% of the ip's last 50 edits have been to longevity-related articles, as are many, many before them
  4. The IP's edit summaries and general tone suggest the same sort of tendentious editing that got User:Ryoung122 to arbitration committee in the first place: this is the best example but, unless you've dealt with the user over an extended period of time, it's difficult to put into tone into context
  5. ip is based in the state of Georgia, as is User:Ryoung122 per his user page as well as his public profile on the internet

Thus I am requesting CheckUser because I believe that Ryoung122 is using this IP address to evade his topic ban. Canadian Paul 19:12, 15 September 2012 (UTC)

Comments by other users

Accused parties may also comment/discuss in this section below. See Defending yourself against claims.

It's been clear for at least 6 months that Ryoung122 switches to this IP when editing in his banned area, but sometimes forgets to log in when posting outside the banned area.

  • In posts of any length Ryoung122's style of writing as well as argumentation is unmistakable. A striking example (for those familiar with his fingerprints) is here .
  • Other the low-hanging fruit here , including a particularly obvious example in which, on a talk page with no posts at all for 4 years, the IP and Ryoung122 both suddenly arrive to post withing 3 minutes of each other, on the same narrow aspect of the article subject.
  • Ryoung122 has a substantial history of chronic sockpuppetry, and has violated his topic ban (under his own username) numerous times, if intermittently.
    • A few examples:
    • Here he excuses one of his violations with, "The ban was for an 'indefinite' time period, not forever" -- and in the same post continues the ban-violating discussion!

I'm not sure a checkuser is needed -- the quacking is deafening. EEng (talk) 23:41, 15 September 2012 (UTC)
