- Endorsed by a checkuser - A shit ton of globally locked accounts pointing back to WaterSnail. I've hit the range hard to stop the activity locally. Another CU might wanna follow up with something on CU-l. -- DQ (ʞlɐʇ) 00:40, 25 February 2014 (UTC)
- Please file this case and four accounts under Ginsuloft. I don't see any purpose in listing each of the dozens of accounts I saw, some of which are already listed in the Ginsuloft archive. The range these are on has been blocked by another admin. —DoRD (talk) 12:50, 13 March 2014 (UTC)

This editor has caused major disruption on Wikipedia during the past 2 days, posting Nazicock multiple times from IP#s and accounts, mostly on the article Swamp. See also [15].

Mass moving of pages from "true page name" to "true page name On Rollers" (capitalisations vary), 41 in 17 minutes which is a rate of one every 24 seconds, which might mean an automated script. This is a modus operandi resembling the last lot of page moves by Ginsuloft's socks, although not as fast as some e.g. User 47 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) who managed 222 moves in 8 minutes, which is a rate of one every two seconds.
PurplePrawn97 was indef blocked by Kelapstick (talk · contribs) at 16:59 today - filing this so that my suspicions are on record. Not sure whether to requesting checkuser so that maybe a few more sleepers can be flushed out. Redrose64 (talk) 22:52, 8 March 2014 (UTC)

I wasn't sure whether to open this case under User:Ginsuloft or his most similar sockpuppet, which is User:Cantseeshit. I went with the master.
