On this wiki, the edits made by that account may have been okay, but this is the latest in a growing number of sockpuppet accounts: Typical behavior is to ask for admin rights, then leave rude and insulting messages of an inappropriate sexual nature. In one instance, one of those messages was used as the reason why they should be given admin rights. I'll leave out the specific wording. "I'm [description of a sexual activity] right now so please make me an admin since I'm doing a good job with [that activity]".

Another behavior is to just leave profanity on the message wall for several people. Many of these accounts are globally disabled as a result of his behavior and there are several records on Community Central of the accounts also being banned from the chat room.

The edits here are a case of what I am beginning to call "beyond crying wolf". It can take on two forms.

The first is that so many problems have been committed in the past that when someone finally does have something good to add, even if it's on a different wiki, it's well past the point of "here they go again, just ignore them" to "we don't even want to hear what they have to say" and they're blocked simply because they showed up again.

The second is, to put it bluntly, being a jerk on other wikis while pretending to be good on a different wiki so they will be trusted there. To extend the analogy, it would be going to a new village to gain their trust so that they can then start crying wolf in that new place.

This person fits both cases, which is why Muzzarino and myself are here providing warnings about him.
