Yeah, that seems suspicious. I could understand if a troper said someone who has a similar username on a different site isn't them, but someone saying a "different troper" with a completely different username on TV Tropes itself is different from that.

I hadn't thought of that, but you may have hit the mark as to why I think this situation is kinda fishy. (Pun totally intended, because walruses eat fish).

In any case, I don't recall seeing any post where anyone accused them of being these other users.

At the very least, I reckon that they're conspiring with those other users to push certain candidates.

Which... technically isn't against the rules, I don't think?

Random, can we get an IP check for this guy and Tropers.Birdy 18?

I'm just gonna guess this guy isn't the same Walrusguy that makes YouTube Poops.

Unless Birdy brought up Dor-15 before, what makes you think it's Birdy specifically? Although using websites other than TV Tropes for his arguments was something Birdy also did.

Grammar just... felt similar. Like I said, random.

I didn't notice those particular similarities.

I don't think I like where this is headed, if only because I really was hoping this was just a misunderstanding on my part.

As far as I can tell, these other two accounts do not exist (yet).

Any overlap with the IP of Birdy 18?

Bump. A troper named Dr Sverl is posting in the Magnificent Bastard Cleanup Thread. There posts are very bare bones, but they're also bringing up characters only Fan 727 effortposted and are talking like they are finishing off Fan 727 work...

I don't even participate on those threads and I think they're being shady and disruptive. Even if by some weird coincidence, Sverl is not Fan, it's still something to address.

Hold up, the connection thickens:

Fan and Sverl are also both the only two people to work on the (utterly brilliant) Characters.Demon Legacy page.

Should we cutlist the character's page? It doesn't have anything going for it, even in spite of being made by a sockpuppetter.

Ok. Requesting a lock on this query.
