Lightbreather
I am wondering what you make of the claims by Lightbreather that he/she was framed for the actions leading up to the block extension. A Joe job sort of thing.
I don't think it is plausible. The behavior was so idiosyncratic and not the clumsy impersonation that normally comes along with a Joe job.
Just wanted to see if you saw any merit in the claim. Chillum 10:41, 13 December 2014 (UTC)
- No, I agree with you and I don't see any merit in the claim. There is no gentle way of saying this, but, put simply, I don't believe her when she says she didn't do it; she has already lied before, when she denied operating the first IP (the one for which she was originally blocked), so I don't attach much credence to her protestations. Salvio 15:23, 13 December 2014 (UTC)
I am glad we are on the same page then. Thank you. Chillum 17:32, 13 December 2014 (UTC)
- Just to add, her frequent attempts in her block apeals to use an all too obviously pre-arranged alibi makes her difficult to believe. (The "I am off to dinner with hubby" edit summary and – just in case it wasn't noticed – "I am just out the door to dinner with my husband" post an hour before the IP edit in question). DeCausa (talk) 20:50, 13 December 2014 (UTC)
- I think she was lucky to not have been blocked longer but honestly doesn't the block expire in a few hours anyways. Time served then let her go about wasting the WP:ROPE. Why try to stop the self destructive behavior, Lightbreather is doing far more damage to her image then anyone could for her. The Case is done, the evasion was her but now let her weave her path of destruction until people see the real person behind the proclaimed motives.
