Has this person been bounced a lot?
I hope there is a way to bounce entire devices, not just an IP.
"I would never consider YOU a waste of personnel." — Kawarino^ They've been bounced literally dozens of times and they still keep coming back, sometimes mere days after their previous sock was bounced. Unfortunately, TVT doesn't have the means to bounce entire devices, only IP addresses, although ban-evader-detecting technology has been devised by the mods to make detecting them easier, and at least one sock was auto-bounced
without anyone having to report it on ATT prior.
ya most ban evaders give up after a couple socks or they don't come back very frequently, but a select few like Sayaka just come back basically every other week for years. Sometimes even multiple in the same day. They never get more than 5-10 edits deep usually before they are caught because they always edit the same pages doing the same things. and despite their edits being reverted dozens of times it doesnt deter them for some bizarre reason.
Edited by kory Now Monitoring Query Bugs and Query WishlistHave those socks been bounced yet?
I believe this many new account at once is new for them, least it's first I've heard despite following. Or is this a matter for the ban evasion forum instead?
About their auto-bounced account, how did they get edits in before the bounce?
Edited by Ferot_DreadnaughtYa all 3 of those accounts are bounced for being Sayaka socks and all 3 have been mentioned in the ban evader thread.

disneymustdie is the latest Sayaka sock, making the exact same edit
on the same page as several of their socks, as well as having an anti-Disney handle like a previous sock (see also, Disney Sucks).
