| Research shows that Felsic admits to once using a proxy that Lightbreather put up a wall of text defended with a tirade of endless jibber jabber here: Lightbreather was well known to use socks and these two accounts are editing all the same articles LB used to edit. They are however staying on separate articles but of the same gun control political nature so as not to trigger the interaction analyzer. The fact that they never edit the same gun control articles is actually amazing being they both push the same gun control agenda. That itself actually appears quite suspicious in itself. They both arrived on scene when Lightbreather facing/in one of their topic bans, etc. A check user is the only way to see if they are indeed the same person. Linking to Lightbreather may be stale due to her being permanently banned for some time. Besides that I believe she has grown more sophisticated through trial and error with previous socks. Check user would show if these two are the same though which would verify a sock account. ] (]) 07:43, 14 August 2016 (UTC) | |||

| :'''Note''' DK has not edited in 4 days but they are ] here. Interestingly Felsic2 has been quite active the last four days and was accused of being a sock by another editor here which motivated me to take action as I too have noticed alarming similarities and even questioned on her talk page. I did not notify Darknipples so how they came to know about this is amazing while Felsic has not commented. Maybe resetting their IP to comment? ] (]) 09:09, 14 August 2016 (UTC) | |||

| *I see this as just a deliberate attempt to cloud the issue, since a CU-check almost certainly will find that anonymous proxies have been used, and thus won't be able confirm any link between ''Felsic2'' and ''Lightbreather'', meaning that any and all comparisons will have to be based on behavioural evidence. But gathering all the diffs needed will take a lot of time. What I have seen so far is that ''Felsic'', who was found to (most probably) not be a Lightbreather sock in a previous report here, most probably is '''not''' the same editor as ''Felsic2'', based on both subject choices and editing behaviour, in spite of claiming they are, and that there is far more evidence supporting a connection between ''Felsic2'' and ''Lightbreather'', than a connection between ''Felsic2'' and ''Felsic''. I intend to present evidence supporting that assertion, but am not ready to do that just yet because of lack of time. As for ''Darknipples'' being a sock I have no comment at all since I haven't encountered that editor and haven't looked at any of their edits. - '''Tom''' | ] ] 10:09, 14 August 2016 (UTC) | |||
