Blocked user Kingcutie under new sockpuppet HDClear

It appears that user Kingcutie is once again vandalizing his brother's wikipedia page under sockpuppet HDClear, for which he was previously banned by you.

It's not entirely clear to me how to proceed with bringing attention to this.

LOL. beat you by one second. Slowpoke. Floquenbeam (talk) 13:30, 24 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Congrats! I'm still struggling to understand why two experienced editors responded to the IP rather than just reverting the thing.--Bbb23 (talk) 13:33, 24 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
People who are not as jaded as you and I are will often default to "clueless newbie" instead of "troll". Which we're probably supposed to do too, except I know Drmies has a history of being harassed, and maybe they don't. Floquenbeam (talk) 13:37, 24 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
In some instances I can understand that reaction, even if I disagree with it, but here the IP hadn't edited anything except AN, and if they wanted to ask Drmies a question, why not go to his Talk page? And the kind of question - why would anyone, including an IP, ask a technical question of Drmies? I mean, why did the IP even pick Drmies? Sorry, but in this case, trolling/disruption/harassment (whatever you want to call it) is obvious, even to the AGF crowd.--Bbb23 (talk) 13:43, 24 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Oops, I forgot, Drmies's Talk page is protected. Some people object to semi-protection of admin Talk pages, and good old (sorry for the pun) Drmies pushes the envelope with EC protection. :-) --Bbb23 (talk) 13:51, 24 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I do like the undertone of "why would anyone, including an IP, ask a technical question of Drmies". I imagine that question in your most incredulous voice. heh. Floquenbeam (talk) 13:55, 24 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Do you have a webcam (with audio) in my office?--Bbb23 (talk) 14:05, 24 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
(talk page watcher) Ah, tryna go back to the infamous monkey scene in Toy Story 3? SCREECH!!! (cymbal clangs) NoobThreePointOh (talk) 16:07, 24 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Floquenbeam, I feel like "why would anyone, including an IP, ask a technical question of Drmies?" is harassment. I mean, it's a valid question, but it's kind of mean. Also, can you help me log into Hulu? The Dutch are playing today. Drmies (talk) 12:57, 25 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Drmies: Bbb23 said it, not me. Would you like me to block him for personal attacks and harrassment? Also, I do actually know how to log into Hulu: Step 1. Hand remote to a nearby kid. Step 2. Ask them to do it. Floquenbeam (talk) 13:58, 25 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Floquenbeam, of course I want you to block him. Drmies (talk) 15:26, 25 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Floquenbeam Um... I don't think that's how it would work since the kid might not know the username or password. NoobThreePointOh (talk) 14:01, 25 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Silly Noob. Kids somehow always know ways around it. They are way more techno-competent than Drmies or me. Indeed, it's one of the few actual benefits of kids. They're cute as babies; they can help with technical stuff when they're older; they can provide grandchildren. Everything else is pretty much on the "debit" side of the ledger. Floquenbeam (talk) 14:09, 25 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Floquenbeam When I think about it, it's super easy to hack into a computer. The process? Just hold Shift while selecting Restart to boot into UEFI. For TVs, I'm not so sure as I've never experimented with that type of technology. NoobThreePointOh (talk) 14:14, 25 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I have no idea what you just said. You must be a kid! Can you please log into Hulu for Drmies? Floquenbeam (talk) 14:15, 25 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Floquenbeam, same here. My son talks that way. So does my Canvas instructor. Just discovered Canvas has a page called "Badges" which apparently is like reward stickers. We don't need no stinking badges! Drmies (talk) 15:26, 25 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Me, a kid? Nonsense! I'm an adult, but definitely don't know the credentials. Hey Doc, does Rosie know how to log in? NoobThreePointOh (talk) 14:29, 25 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Ahem, you are an adult, or you wouldn't be suggesting that a child would know about Hulu. That's like network television and boring stuff like that; they do Netflix because it has the Avatar. My son just told me we need to get one of those fluffy flying animals. Drmies (talk) 15:41, 25 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

New sock re JoeJonas_1233

User:JoeJonas 1233 just BLPNd as User:Redsnakes22. Cheers. JFHJr () 04:52, 25 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Well, they certainly make it easy, don't they? Thanks.--Bbb23 (talk) 13:18, 25 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry Bbb--I should have seen that coming and semi-protected it myself rather than leave it a forum for boys. Drmies (talk) 12:55, 25 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

How many times have I told you that you are responsible for all articles about Dutch people and all articles about football? This fit into both. Being a referee is a bit like being an administrator: someone is always unhappy with your judgments.--Bbb23 (talk) 13:20, 25 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Bbb, you're laying it on me a bit heavy broski Drmies (talk) 15:27, 25 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
As I've said many times before, I can't always tell when you're being serious. Just in case, I hereby issue a blanket apology for past/present/future comments that may have actually offended you.--Bbb23 (talk) 15:34, 25 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
IYKYK. ;) Drmies (talk) 15:43, 25 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

NICTON t’s block

Hi Bbb, I don’t understand your NOTHERE block of NICTON t. Their outburst about Doug Weller is certainly weird and a waste of time, but do you really believe this person can’t possibly have anything to contribute to the project? Their behavior seems to me like that of an overzealous, trigger-happy newbie who doesn’t yet understand how to interpret standard template warnings and communications on Wikipedia. I remember when I started editing I thought every CTOP alert I got was a passive-aggressive flick. But I picked it up, and the odds of me raising a similarly baseless complaint to NICTON t’s at ANI went from nonzero to zero. Would you consider amending their indef block to something shorter or more targeted? Zanahary 02:05, 26 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The user can make an unblock request, and it will be reviewed.--Bbb23 (talk) 13:14, 26 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You've got mail

Hello, Bbb23. Please check your email; you've got mail!
It may take a few minutes from the time the email is sent for it to show up in your inbox. You can at any time by removing the {{You've got mail}} or {{ygm}} template.Doug Weller talk 16:36, 27 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Doug, I often forget that you are from the States. You edited that article way back in 2011...I guess it's still on your watchlist (only has 4 watchers) because you knew I'd edited it. BTW, I have no interest in the article or the building - I often click on "Random article" when I'm bored and have nothing else I feel like doing on Wikipedia. Pretty amazing what you see. I apparently touched a nostalgic chord, though. :-) --Bbb23 (talk) 18:16, 27 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You did. I don't think I get bored, in fact I need to spend less time chasing down vandals or suspect edits and actually writing an article! Doug Weller talk 08:43, 28 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
