* This si the first I've heard of User:Michael93555, but now that I look it's quite clear that the IP user is him. The tone and word usage are very similar, as are the topics of interest. The IP is obviously familiar with Wikipedia. I think a range block may be needed. Will Beback talk 19:21, 31 July 2009 (UTC)
* I think that that would be a good idea. But if you do the range block you would be blocking thousands of people and they wont be a able to edit. Do you think that I'm worth all of the clitoral damage. I know for a fact you all can't do a range block. But, I may be wrong. I hope you make a right choice. I don’t want to be responsible for this.--71.105.181.222 (talk)--209.44.123.5 (talk) 21:38, 31 July 2009 (UTC)

Not as funny as expected.....
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Adm...dministrator.29No. But actually the mildly droll part is how this IP user, already nailed as multiple socker
user:Michael93555 (uploader of all but one of the photos in
Ridgecrest, California, including some nice ones) has got Beback and the crew thinking they can't deal with him except with wide range blocks, which of course they can't do. Michael93555 has taunted them by uploading a bunch of stale old IPs used by some Czech vandal POVer (he hates Poles!), pretending he has access to them all. Actually if you look at it, Mr. Ridgecrest is pretty well confined to a few Verizon IPs that geolocate to his same area of California in Victorville and Phelan. One has already been blocked, but they've so-far missed his main one at
user:71.119.79.180 . Which is surely the same guy, as proven by
this edit.
And also suggesting the user they're after is one Michael Price, a 27 y.o. guy
who lives in Ridgecrest, and has the same MySpace address as
user:Michael27ca already
nailed as a sock of Mr. Ridgecrest photo guy, Michael93555. Duh.
But it's the usual thing: they can't bring themselves to sprotect
Ridgecrest, California for long. Even from the horde of imaginary Czech Tor vandals that Price has set up to scare them. Beback, you're such a wanker!
