User talk:Biografer GOT STUNG for EXCESSIVE Welcome Text ABUSE
I would like to know, how on earth did you got hang of my account name and how did you know about the discussion?--Biografer (talk) 19:06, 31 October 2017 (UTC)
- @There'sNoTime:, @GreenMeansGo:, @Boing! said Zebedee:, @BU Rob13: I don't know what's going on here but I demand answers, as it seem that one of us in this discussion knew something about it.--Biografer (talk) 19:23, 31 October 2017 (UTC)
- 1) Courtesy reping of @Boing! said Zebedee:, because their username is slightly more excited.
- 2) Just a troll. If you get few of them occasionally, it's actually usually a sign you're doing something right. They don't much like normal productive human beings. GMGtalk 19:27, 31 October 2017 (UTC)
- Something still fishy, just 2 days ago the same troll pinged me at WikiMedia. Can't be a coincidence?--Biografer (talk) 19:31, 31 October 2017 (UTC)
- Not to mention that I don't see that troll going to anybody else's talkpages (only the ones that had to do with a discussion at AN/I and my talkpage).--Biografer (talk) 19:35, 31 October 2017 (UTC)
- Probably not a coincidence. Like I said, it's usually a sign you're doing something right. They don't tend to much bother disruptive users who aren't here to build an encyclopedia. GMGtalk 19:39, 31 October 2017 (UTC)
- Something tells me that Nihlus was behind it. I don't want to point fingers on anyone but do look here and here. The gap between edit 1 and edit 2 are more then 30 minutes long. Obviously enough time to create a separate account. And as for malicious purpose, check this out. Nihlus really was unhappy with the admin closure without blocking me.--Biografer (talk) 19:54, 31 October 2017 (UTC)

- @Biografer: This is the second time you have made a personal attack against me, accusing me of sockpuppetry (first one is here). I am going to ask one last time to strike you spurious accusations against me. I will not tolerate this. Nihlus 20:04, 31 October 2017 (UTC)
- Well, I assume good faith, and no I wont strike down something that is suspicious. At least not until @Boing! said Zebedee: shows up. And it is not personal attack, I however do apologize if it feels that way, but for now it should stay. Sorry.--Biografer (talk) 20:11, 31 October 2017 (UTC)
- It is a personal attack, and you are assuming everything but good faith. If you do not strike it, I will ask an admin to do it for you at WP:ANI. Nihlus 20:15, 31 October 2017 (UTC)
- Can we just fucking stop please? Biografer, it's a personal attack, and you don't have any evidence other than the fact that the two of you flatly don't like each other. Nihlus, not everything has to end at ANI, and not every gentlemanly besmirch of someone's honor needs immediate satisfaction. This is exactly what stupid trolls want: people bickering with each other instead of building an encyclopedia. Please stop. Just. Go do something else. GMGtalk 20:20, 31 October 2017 (UTC)
- Thanks. I personally was in a process of finally writing an article when my talkpage blurred with a message (following by its revert). Look, sorry if it was hurtful, that's the best that I can say and do for now. I'm busy with article now.--Biografer (talk) 20:26, 31 October 2017 (UTC)
- I brushed off the first one. Two times makes a pattern, and I won't accept it. Sorry. Sometimes a line needs to be drawn and this user has had plenty of chances. Nihlus 20:31, 31 October 2017 (UTC)

- @Biografer: I'm not sure why you put so much faith in me, but I echo the suggestions that you should not blame other specified editors without actual evidence. If you think you have evidence, you should file a sockpuppet report at WP:SPI and provide that evidence - but I think it is very likely that anything along the lines of just "The gap between edit 1 and edit 2 are more then 30 minutes long. Obviously enough time to create a separate account" would be rejected as insufficient. So please, either file a sockpuppet report, or drop your accusations against User:Nihlus.
On to the troll, yes, it's surely not just random and is very possibly someone you've had a disagreement with before - though I don't see enough to have any actual suspects myself right now. But, I've also seen cases of long-term trolls getting in on other people's disagreements just like this, to try to foment further animosity. Anyway, right now, the best we can do is revert, block, ignore (and we even have a guideline that says just that at WP:RBI). I think that's the best you can do with trolls - don't give them the satisfaction of rising to their bait. Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 20:56, 31 October 2017 (UTC)
