Fishytimes196 seems fishy to me

[edit]

Spicy, do you think Fishytimes196 is Farmer4-89? They're both trolls, they both use Internet speak (u instead of you), they edit similar topics (Fishy has far fewer edits to articles as they've spent most of the time being disruptive on their Talk page and at WP:AN), and they both use the mobile platform.--Bbb23 (talk) 22:27, 17 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Fairly  Likely. Combined with the behaviour, I guess I'll block. Spicy (talk) 22:55, 17 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks. You made a point that it wasn't a CU block. Any reason why?--Bbb23 (talk) 23:53, 17 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Because I wouldn't have blocked based on the CU data alone, and I think it's best to avoid CU blocks unless they are absolutely necessary - there's a tendency for non-CU admins to summarily decline CU block appeals just because they are CU blocks, or worse, refer them to Arbcom. Not that I think that this user should be unblocked... Spicy (talk) 12:55, 18 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
