[00:41:27] [[Special:CentralAuth/PiotrGrochowski]] I am expressing my concern towards this user, as this block summary that he made against me that says "Unblocking a retard", as shown here: https://unicodesubsets.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Log/block&page=User%3ADarkMatterMan4500 As far as I am aware, he was blocked on Meta for apparent sockpuppetry last April by RhinosF1. I wasn't sure whether or not this was [00:41:28] appropriate to talk about here. One thing that does concern me though are the insults he used against me. What are your thoughts on this? [00:41:29] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:CentralAuth/PiotrGrochowski [00:41:29] [ Block log - Wikicode Subsets ] - unicodesubsets.miraheze.org [00:41:31] [ Global account information for PiotrGrochowski - Miraheze Meta ] - meta.miraheze.org [00:54:09] DarkMatterMan4500, we're well aware of that user. I'm less concerned with the reason(s) you've identified, though, as that's water under the bridge. My main concerns relate to Content Policy on one particular wiki and will be discussing thoughts with existing Stewards in due course [00:55:02] @Doug Oh goodie. [00:57:04] Also, what specific wiki are you talking about @Doug? [18:06:29] @Doug Oh yeah, in regards to Barnyardfan2007's vandalism from a few weeks ago, I didn't even notice that he insulted someone, as shown here on the Rotten Websites Wiki: https://rottenwebsites.miraheze.org/wiki/Black_Lives_Matter_(Radical)#comment-9170 https://rottenwebsites.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:Log/comments/Barnyardfan2007 [18:06:44] [ Black Lives Matter (Radical) - Rotten Websites Wiki ] - rottenwebsites.miraheze.org [18:06:45] [ Comments log - Rotten Websites Wiki ] - rottenwebsites.miraheze.org [19:51:19] Reception123: I suggest you +m [19:51:40] Or use #miraheze-overflow's message [19:52:14] I'd give it until tomorrow for everything to settle in then I'll do that [19:55:49] Just to point this out, I was trying to see if I was able to join using the Kiwi IRC, but was kicked for some reason. [19:57:27] Has this happened to anyone else? [19:59:20] The bot kicked you for using a open proxy [20:00:19] Yeah, I've noticed that. Is it actually ready? [20:01:02] hm? [20:01:10] I meant Libera.chat. [20:01:23] yes, otherwise the topic wouldn't say so [20:02:17] Yeah, it did seem strange, so I think I'll just stick to using Discord at that time, and Freenode as well beforehand. [20:02:23] * dmehus is surprised darkmatterman450 has a VPS of his own [20:03:10] @dmehus I wasn't trying to evade by using Kiwiirc. [20:03:23] oh no not saying that [20:03:36] just saying I didn't know you have your own VPS/web host [20:03:46] It might be because I'm using a laptop right now. [20:03:53] oh [20:04:13] Voidwalker_, looks like you might have two Voidwalker connections active on Freenode right now as I do see your username shows up as Voidwalker_ [20:04:38] I just didn't bother resetting the nick after a connection blip [20:04:43] oh heh [20:06:00] Well, that makes sense. It seems like you were busy with setting this up while not seeing what I wrote to either one of you on (I think you know what it is, but won't way it since I feel like that it would clutter the channel at best, or possibly be spammy at worst.) [20:07:31] But for now, I will just stick to freenode. [20:29:38] well we're not planning on keeping this channel alive for much longer [20:30:16] Well, okay. I might just stick to Discord then. [20:33:38] https://meta.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Contributions/95.233.132.18 Anyone want to deal with this disruptive IP hopping user? [20:33:39] [ User contributions for 95.233.132.18 - Miraheze Meta ] - meta.miraheze.org [20:34:36] I've reverted the gibberish just now. [20:35:04] Oh wait, we conflicted. [20:35:44] Thanks @Reception123. [20:37:41] You definitely should. And I absolutely dare that user to create multiple accounts out of us. It probably won't work for them. [20:39:01] This LTA hopping user has been like this since the day we've been banning their accounts and many of their sockpuppets that followed. [20:41:25] @Reception123 And I'll bet they'll just resort to creating multiple accounts. And hopefully, that should slow the flow down. [20:43:20] Indeed, but since they won't be able to do that when the abuse filter is activated, they'll probably find another way to continue it by creating multi-sock accounts. They seem to like to use web host/open proxies for that matter. [21:04:57] So it works? [21:06:11] Sorry about bugging you 2. [22:32:47] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/special:contributions/95.246.3.211 Well well well, looks like our "old friend" has returned to cause more disruption. [22:32:48] [ User contributions for 95.246.3.211 - Miraheze Meta ] - meta.miraheze.org [22:33:35] Oh, never mind, it's been dealt with. [22:45:00] @Doug, I was pretty suspicious of Melba Merrystar as well, so you're not the only one who was suspicious. [22:51:14] @Doug Yeah, sorry about that. [22:53:02] I'm pretty sure that's Bugambilia, as they are saying stuff like "Melb is is a name I have used on several forums in the past." And about your second reply, that would be just fine. [23:04:13] Well, seems like both of our suspicions were confirmed after all, weren't they? [23:11:31] BugBath seems to be the only sockpuppet of Bugambilia to be unlocked though. [23:57:14] @Doug Fair enough. Btw, you have some unfinished business to take care of, right?
