Question

I'm curious if you know Zim2007 (talk · contribs), Thehalo1noob (talk · contribs), or Angrygamer (talk · contribs)? I believe that Zim2007 and Thehalo1noob may be the same user. Immediately after Zim2007 was blocked, a new user by the name of Angrygamer started contributing to the same types of articles that Zim2007/Thehalo1noob contributed to. In other words, I believe that Zim2007/Thehalo1noob moved on to the persona of Angrygamer after the Zim2007 account was blocked. I posted a question about this on Angrygamer's talk page. After this question was posted, Angrygamer immediately stopped contributing and this account — Flnclan - was created. You seem to make similar edits to the edits that Zim2007/Thehalo1noob/Angrygamer made. In other words, I'm curious if you might be the same person that was editing under all of those previous names? If that is the case, please read Wikipedia:Username policy. That policy specifically reads "It is recommended that users not edit under multiple usernames, except with good reason. ... If you use multiple accounts, it is recommended that you explain this on your user page". This means that, unless they specifically explain why they are doing so, the same user should not edit under multiple names and should not create new accounts in the attempt to evade previous blocks or bans. I don't really have a problem with any of your contributions so far, but I don't like the idea of the same user repeatedly switching from account to account. An editor should stick with their account and not try to create multiple personas. I'm not accusing you of anything, I just think this looks very suspicious. If you are the same person behind the Zim2007/Thehalo1noob/Angrygamer accounts, I would ask you to please try to stick with one account. It is confusing and inappropriate to switch between accounts without explaining why. --MatthewUND^(talk) 02:32, 16 August 2007 (UTC)

If you are the same person behind the Zim2007/Thehalo1noob/Angrygamer accounts, the {{Alternateuser}} template should be placed on all four user pages. If you do that and if you stick to this account instead of going off and starting yet another one, I think everybody would be happy. --MatthewUND^(talk) 02:48, 16 August 2007 (UTC)

Are you familiar with Zim2007 (talk · contribs), Thehalo1noob (talk · contribs), or Angrygamer (talk · contribs)? It looks as if these group of usernames are sock puppets, I have noticed that the user(s) in question doesn't reply back to messages. I have also noticed that when an editor sends a warning message to Zim2007/Thehalo1noob/Angrygamer, he/she/they makes another account. These are only my observations. I put sockpuppet templates on the three usernames, and then you added that template in your userbox collection.--milk the cows (Talk) 16:29, 16 August 2007 (UTC)

Potential block

You have never responded to allegations that you might be the same person who has also edited under the Zim2007 (talk · contribs), Thehalo1noob (talk · contribs), or Angrygamer (talk · contribs) usernames. Because you have never verified or denied this connection between all of these accounts, it is highly innappropriate for you to be editing the user pages of these other accounts, for you to remove messages from the talk pages of these other accounts, or for you to remove templates about suspected sock puppetry from these other accounts' user pages and talk pages. If you continue to make disruptive edits to these pages, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Your continued contributions under this username are welcome, but you MUST refrain from making further edits like those outlined above. --MatthewUND^(talk) 01:47, 18 August 2007 (UTC)
