	For keeping your cool as much as you have throughout this entire situation. I know how much it freaked me out when something similar happened to me a few months ago, so I know how much it must be freaking you out. — Gestrid (talk) 06:56, 24 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

	The Barnstar of Diligence
	Since you started editing earlier this year, you've made the encyclopedia a better place and have weathered more storms than any editor should have in such a short time. I appreciate your contribution and your wikifriendship. LM2000 (talk) 10:51, 30 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

You did nothing wrong. The first step in SPIs is to see if they can just use a tool to determine if there is a link between the account(s) and IP(s). There is a rule against "outing" accounts by publicly stating a link to an IP, so declining a checkuser investigation is mostly a formality (in other words, the tool can only be used if there are multiple registered accounts, not IPs, being investigated). Unfortunately, administrators often don't bother with the next step, which is actually considering the evidence presented and seeing if there is a sufficient behavioral link between the two accounts. This takes more effort than most administrators are willing to put in, so they will often just ignore the SPI for a month or so, declare it "stale", and close it without taking any action. It's not a great system, or even a good system, but it's what we've got, I guess. GaryColemanFan (talk) 19:24, 1 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@GaryColemanFan: Yeah I just got told that a CU hasnt ever been requested before, but if that's the case then why is there one archived for them here and why is the cu template on their page here. Kinda feel like it wasn't even looked at. Chris "WarMachineWildThing" ^{Talk to me} 19:40, 1 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

SPI is clearly useless, so glad I wasted my time on putting one together and nice to see Admins let indeffed users to continue causing issues even after being provided with clear cut evidence they are block evading. Chris "WarMachineWildThing" ^{Talk to me} 20:24, 1 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@The Ruler Of All Water: please continue with your abuse, there is only about 4 admins who watch this talk page. So please do continue to dig a deeper hole.Nice try with the color coding. Chris "WarMachineWildThing" ^{Talk to me} 03:21, 4 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I was about to add a source until you undid all of my work. Idiot. Now, you're removing my posts on your talk page and therefore aren't even allowing me to reply to your posts on mine. You may be banned from Wikipedia for removing perfectly valid information. DaveA2424 (talk) 04:09, 4 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
