| Regarding this investigation, it does seem odd that you mentioned you'd be taking 2 days away from editing the Rupert Sheldrake page, then a suspected sock with a Palm Springs IP address appears using similar turns of phrase. I could be mistaken. <s>However one thing that might help establish the two accounts are not connected would be if you would comment here at the same time the suspected sockpuppet is active.</s> Regards. ] (]) 17:01, 13 October 2013 (UTC) | |||

For what purpose would I even need to do this? If I wanted to make an argument, I would as tumbleman. as you can see I also do not need any help or need any sockpuppets because I already have support on the talk page. You and your group of skeptic pals have harassed me enough and should be ashamed of what you are doing to Misplaced Pages.

Every single time they have failed and this will be no different. I am NOT any of those two accounts, I do NOT live in Palm Springs. I am NOT a troll or have been trolling. I am NOT disruptive to the page. I am requesting these be IMMEDIATELY removed and I have no choice but to report this hounding to an administrator. Since I have arrived, they have exposed my identity, tried to scrutinize my account and claim I am running WP NOT, and then they try to get me banned for pushing 'conspiracy' theories and being a 'fringe' believer - all of which are completely ridiculous and not in the spirit of why I am here. Then they edit war and put a notice on my page for edit warring! Anyone can view the talk section of sheldrake to see what kind of an editor I am. ] (]) 23:02, 13 October 2013 (UTC) | |||

| :Because doing so would prove nothing. If I wanted to, I could very easily set up a new account and edit from both accounts within seconds of one another. I could even do it with different computers, working on different IP addresses, using different operating systems, and different web browsers if I took a little trouble. If I took a little more trouble, by using a proxy I could make the two IP addresses geolocate to different continents. If anything, if she responded to a request to edit while you were online, it would look rather suspicious: has she been sitting at a computer for hours, repeatedly checking to see when you are online? Or is she in close contact with you, so that she knows when you are online? ] (]) 17:25, 15 October 2013 (UTC) | |||
| ::] (]) Well I am just trying to come up with a rational way to prove I am not KateGombert because I am not Kate Gombert. Under the conditions you set above, I guess everyone here can be a sockpuppet too. Although all of this evidence is circumstantial, and {{ping|Reaper Eternal}} ] already says that WP's server logs support my story, and I am willing to be completely transparent in this 'investigation', I guess I'm just a victim of WP's process, I just have to be guilty because a few editors were suspicious I was. I accept if this is the best WP can do. But it has damaged my credibility on the page where i was incredibly active and had a strong and influential voice. I also was in the middle of an RfC process which I now cannot assist in. I've been working on that page for a month so it's hard when good work goes to waste, I hope you understand my position, I don't see how this decision has helped Misplaced Pages or helped make the page I was working on better. Thanks for giving this your attention.] (]) 18:25, 15 October 2013 (UTC) | |||
| :::Yes, I do understand your position, and I am now much more willing to believe that you may be an unfortunate victim of the ways that Misplaced Pages works than I was when I declined an unblock request from you. In fact, I would carefully consider whether to give you the benefit of the doubt and unblock you anyway, if it were not for the fact that Reaper Eternal is dealing with the case, and having access to checkuser information that I can't see, is in a better position than I am to make an appropriate decision. My comment above was not meant to be a dismissal of your case, it was just meant to explain why the suggested method would not be helpful. It is a very unfortunate fact that there is absolutely no certain way of telling whether an account is a sockpuppet or not. We have to rely on making judgements as to what seems most likely in view of the available evidence, and sometimes what seems most likely is in fact false. If "KateGombert" is the "professional" that you allowed to use your account, then you may have unfortunately been trapped by the consequences of an action which you did with innocent intention, not knowing that it (a) was contrary to Misplaced Pages policy, and (b) might lead to the situation that now exists. However, even if that is the case, and you are innocent of sockpuppetry, there is still a large question of tendentious editing, so if you are eventually unblocked then you would be well advised to think very carefully about how you edit in the future. ] (]) 18:56, 15 October 2013 (UTC) | |||

The last case I won and now the admins from that case have requested that I submit a detailed summary of their disruptive behaviors on the board, of which I can assure you this will be one of them. I am NOT a sock puppet, and do not know those accounts nor do I even live in Palm Springs.

| {{unblock reviewed|1= Request a second independent opinion. I am requesting an unblock. I am not sockpuppetting, but now understand how it may have appeared this way. I did have someone use my PW and sign in to my account for a period of 6 hours last week to help me with references in my ''sandbox only.'' First opinion stated that because of this, there is no way to tell who now owns the account. I request a second opinion based on the following. | |||
| 1.) Person who signed into my account was concerned that the bad behaviors on the Sheldrake page would come to their account, like has come to mine and did so to protect their account. | |||
| 2.)My account PW was changed since then and I am the only person who has access to my account. | |||
| 3.) Providing evidence that this is the case that I am the sole owner is easy, as this account is directly linked to my personal email address with my personal name. I can be emailed with a reference code by any admin and can then post this to my talk section for verification. | |||

| {{unblock reviewed | 1=Request for other independent opinions. '''User Tumbleman is not user KateGombert or any other user.''' The only reason I can think why my IP was showing up for another may have been because a few weeks ago I requested a professional to help me with my sandbox and for a day or two I shared my account PW with this professional so they could make changes in my sandbox regarding my references at their office. I only requested them to use my account and no other. I asked for help regarding references because I wanted to make sure I am editing with proper WP protocols regarding references and needed help. This professional works in public relations in an office setting so it is likely their office has WP activity since they do online public relations and outreach support for many social sites in general. IP logs should show if this is the case and if it is, it would only have been for a day or two and the log activity will show that they were active only on my talk page. '''Suggestion.''' Why not unblock that account, reach out to her, and ask her to post something the same time I am online?

| ====WP Guidelines interesting to Tumbleman case==== | |||
| ] | |||
| Placing numerous false or questionable "warnings" on a user's talk page, restoring such comments after a user has removed them, placing "suspected sockpuppet" and similar tags on the user page of active contributors, and otherwise trying to display material the user may find annoying or embarrassing in their user space is a common form of harassment. | |||
| User pages are provided so that editors can provide some general information about themselves and user talk pages are to facilitate communication. Neither is intended as a 'wall of shame' and should not be used to display supposed problems with the user unless the account has been blocked as a result of those issues. Any sort of content which truly needs to be displayed, or removed, should be immediately brought to the attention of admins rather than edit warring to enforce your views on the content of someone else's user space. | |||
| ] | |||
| Misplaced Pages is highly visible in the Internet; any Google or other search engine search on a subject for which Misplaced Pages has an article is likely to display that article on the first page of results, and quite likely as the first or second result returned. If you edit that article, then anyone who is interested in the subject is going to be able to see what you wrote. They will also be able to track your activity across the site, in project and user pages as well as in articles. So anything you say here and anything you do here can have real world consequences. Consider carefully what you write; keep in mind that you (and other people) can get hurt. | |||
| ] | |||
| As an editor on Misplaced Pages, you have a choice: You can let everyone know who you are. Or you can make your edits while hiding your true identity and keeping to yourself. | |||
| Remaining anonymous is your right. But there are ways in which your identity can be revealed, even if you do not wish. | |||
| For example, if you are so proud of an article you created that you tell people you know in person, they may read the article, and from looking at your contributions, they can then learn what else you did on Misplaced Pages. It is very possible that you do not wish for these people (who could be your relatives, friends, or even your boss) to know about other edits you have previously made or that you plan to make in the future. So before you go and brag, you may wish to be aware of this. | |||
| You may also get to "know" other editors on Misplaced Pages (without knowing their true identities) if you work on a project or on many articles within a common area. These are people you may end up in deep discussions with. You may not want them to know about your other areas of interest. | |||
| Hiding such edits from your edit history is a legitimate use for ] | |||
| ] | |||
| Wikihounding is the singling out of one or more editors, and joining discussions on multiple pages or topics they may edit or multiple debates where they contribute, in order to repeatedly confront or inhibit their work. This is with an apparent aim of creating irritation, annoyance or distress to the other editor. Wikihounding usually involves following the target from place to place on Misplaced Pages. | |||
| Many users track other users' edits, although usually for collegial or administrative purposes. This should always be done carefully, and with good cause, to avoid raising the suspicion that an editor's contributions are being followed to cause them distress, or out of revenge for a perceived slight. Correct use of an editor's history includes (but is not limited to) fixing unambiguous errors or violations of Misplaced Pages policy, or correcting related problems on multiple articles. In fact, such practices are recommended both for Recent changes patrol and WikiProject Spam. The contribution logs can be used in the dispute resolution process to gather evidence to be presented in requests for comment, mediation, WP:ANI, and arbitration cases. Using dispute resolution can itself constitute hounding if it involves persistently making frivolous or poorly-based complaints about another editor. | |||
| The important component of wikihounding is disruption to another user's own enjoyment of editing, or to the project generally, for no overriding reason. If "following another user around" is accompanied by tendentiousness, personal attacks, or other disruptive behavior, it may become a very serious matter and could result in blocks and other editing restrictions. | |||

It's very uncomfortable to me and I am sorry if this is not the appropriate way to address - but as you can know, my account is banned, and there is a 'investigation' happening about Tumbleman and there are lists of accusations, many of which extend beyond even the scope of this issue, claiming I am some sort of global sock puppeting mastermind. (oddly enough the previous hearing to get me banned was because I was talking about 'conspiracy' theories on the talk page, irony never stops) ] | |||
| I am blocked, and find myself in a position where I cannot even defend myself against these claims. Truly that is frustrating, abusive even. Specifically, when i saw this I felt something had to be said because these people ] (]), ] (]) , ], ] (]), ] (]), ] (]) appear very set on damaging my reputation for the sake of their editing decisions and that's not how I understand the spirit of wikipedia to be. | |||
| Specifically, ] (]) says, and I quote '''As that long list of links in the previous point may already indicate, Tumbleman is ''an antisocial individual'' on the Internet.''' This I find personally slanderous, and contrary of course to not only those links, but who I am at all. Is it common for editors to offer their own psychological evaluations of other editors as proof of their removal? Additionally, I am also perplexed as to links from a *personal* project I did in 2005 has absolutely anything to do with the Sheldrake page? | |||
| I don't mind being transparent, it's a big part of who I am - and not that I should even have to defend a personal project of mine from 7 or 8 years ago, I don't mind sharing the details if it clears up any confusion. The project vzaak is linking to is | |||
| :1.) A personal project, both highly creative in nature, tongue in cheek, and also entirely non offensive, funny even. Haven't done anything with that since 2006 I believe. It evolved from a bunch of people discussing going to war, or not - in Iraq in 2003 and we all began to notice a pattern with certain types of individuals online when they would engage with discussion and the os 012 meme started organically. I became intrigued and adopted the mantel and carried the torch, but many others were involved. I just found myself in the middle of it and went with it. Sort of a spontaneous nutty project. I work in media/tech now but my background then was primarily creative and artistic. | |||
| :2.) Although very creative in nature, I was testing and developing a process for consensus building, and did need to test the principle in live discussion, hence the reference. | |||
| :3.) So I would start a discussion on a few chosen forums to test the principles and would encourage users to falsify the principles in the debate. The discussions actually were extraordinarily popular on every forum I did them, one of them lasting over 9 months. | |||
| :4.) I was never trolling, or sock puppeting, however was accused of that often, much like i am here, when certain online users became frustrated in debate. I do admit to being funny and over the top with my personality, that was part of the fun, especially when people finally got the joke. | |||
| :5.) When I joined WP back then, I did try to start a page around this project, but didnt know how WP worked and it was deleted for not being notable, which of course I see and accept. That was 7 years ago. | |||
| :6.) Who cares? | |||
| Should I have to defend this? No, I shouldn't. Do I care if people know about this? No, but I assume who would even care. I am a professional in my field, and even gave one of the most popular TEDx talks in the world on the evolution of collective editing and collective intelligence, using WP as an example - so when I see disgruntled editors be more <del> concerned</del> confused about what I did 8 years ago and use that to ban me from a page where it is very clear they are punishing me for them being frustrated by my arguments, ''it makes me personally upset and violated.'' | |||
| These users will never be satisfied with whatever decision is made about me. It does appear that I do have some gentle admin support even, and they will even attack the admin if the admin defends me, just like they do editors on the page who do. Today one of the users who was accused of being my sockpuppet came back to clear things up. It didn't matter, first response to that from ] was more suspicion because I responded to him 15 minutes after he posted. Funny thing is I was actually going to respond the very second after he posted because I was on WP at the time. I told myself when i saw the message light come that i should probably wait to respond a bit because if I responded right away, they would claim that was evidence of sockpuppeting. Truly, the irony never ends. | |||
| They have completely destroyed my credibility on the Sheldrake page, have prevented me from moving forward with the RfC hearing request where I was to make a case against their behaviors, and I believe will never stop hounding me, even if I leave so I need to take steps to protect myself here but at least need to defend myself and this is the only way. Irony has it that the person who has been trying to build consensus, stick to a NPOV and provide transparency is the one who is banned for what now appears to be nothing more harmless than have someone help me build stronger references in my sandbox while numerous editors with bad behaviors are having a field day stamping on my reputation and turning off other editors to the page as well. Well that just really makes me want to make the page better MORE. | |||

I waited more than 30 minutes to respond to you here just in case it would have been used as evidence of more sock puppetry :) I do plan on staying! ] (]) 05:40, 16 October 2013 (UTC) | |||

| :: ] (])Unlikely as you are quite active in silencing my voice on the page and are still in the process of making bizarre claims that i am some sockpuppet mastermind. I would imagine your name will be coming up quite a bit so don't be shocked when I post it again in relationship to my case or anything on the Sheldrake page. ] (]) 14:02, 16 October 2013 (UTC) | |||

| ::::Do as you will, ] (]) - you're being notified because I am discussing your actions in the only forum I am allowed to defend myself against steps you're taking regarding tumbleman. If you don't want to be notified, it's probably better then to remove yourself from anything to do with Tumbleman. My policy is to always notify an editor when they are being discussed and I see no reason to suspend that. I actually would appreciate if you did the same in return. Apparently you're quite vocal about Tumbleman, I appreciate the notification when editors discuss my account. ] (]) 14:30, 16 October 2013 (UTC) | |||
| <font face="Rage Italic" size="4" color="#800080">]</font> <sup><font face="Times New Roman" color="#006400">] ]</font></sup>, ] (]) , ] (]) - In consideration of Liz's comment, I request admins to consider if this action is actually making the page any better. Admin Tom Morris has wisely placed a 3 day edit ban on the page and has invited consensus arguments in TALK. I believe that my participation in those talks are valuable in making the page better. However, my ban is scheduled to be removed on Sunday, and this technicality is preventing my participation. Other than naively getting help from an experienced WP editor in my sandbox, my case appears to be held up on a technicality. I am hoping that WP admins can be ''''bold'''' here and allow a highly motivated, well reasoned and neutral editor to participate. If a technicality is preventing from making the page better, let's remove that technicality! ] (]) 14:25, 16 October 2013 (UTC) | |||
| {{ping|Tom Morris}} Thank you for for your action on the Sheldrake page. I support it. I was a very strong voice on that page and I do want to continue to participate. I am requesting however you extend the days. As you may gather from just reading a little bit above, a number of editors on the page have fabricated a case against me and I have been banned for one week for sockpuppetry, which I am innocent. Although I appear to have admin support, and admins involved say they are likely to believe me, and ] (]) has even said he will remove the ban (not sure why he hasn't yet) - my voice is still silenced on the page and I will not be able to participate in the consensus edit you have wisely enforced. I believe my presence in that process will be valuable to the page. This editor appreciates any advice you can give. How can I help? ] (]) 13:53, 16 October 2013 (UTC) | |||
| {{ping|Reaper Eternal}} Good morning. You mentioned you would remove the ban and requested I email you with certain information. I have not heard back from you on this. ] (]) has placed an edit ban on the Sheldrake page for three days and admins are going to compile consensus arguments. I believe it is necessary I participate in that process and I believe I am a valued voice in making the page better. Can we expedite this process so I can participate? ] (]) 13:57, 16 October 2013 (UTC) | |||
