Risker, I asked you to name the admins who "believed that a pre-emptive block of a possible sockpuppet was acceptable behaviour." Name them please.

Anyone who has seen this routine before knows that as soon as Risker answers that question he's dead meat.
But since we are not trapped in the Inner Circus of Grand Inquisitor Jayjg's Sanctimonious Sanatorium, we can easily answer the question, in spades.
On the plausible assumption that any admin who executes a pre-emptive block of a possible sockpuppet ipso fatso believes that action to be acceptable behaviour, it is absolutely routine to name an all but unlimited supply of such names.
I will collect on this thread a small sample of cases that I can find right off. I am sure that others will have no difficulty adding their own pages to the ledger of abuse.
