After the debacle of white_rabb1t/gg.nore, we should all be more careful about sockpuppetry on TL.net.

If you know Lightwip's posting style, you'll recognize that he tends to use proper grammar and prefers shorter posts. Looking at Ghanti's post history, it seemed like those two characteristics, plus the standard dose of Lightwip-style passive-aggression, makes him look like Lightwip's alt.

First post:

"Justice. And Peace please."

Second post:

I had to double also. Maybe he meant "We've been translating... for years"

Third post:

What is this nanashin is writing - 1.5 hours til MuCore?

Fourth post:

So many PvZs. So many Hydra busts. (passive aggressive)

Fifth post and onwards--starts introducing random typos into his posts and drastically changing his grammar habits:

Excessive use of violence by the police is sickerning. I wonfder what theur official statement is

---

Anyone else find this a little wierd?

And look at Lightwip's response in the SPL finals thread--Ghanti hijacks it and Lightwip defends him just like white_rabb1t and sovetsky soyuz used to defend gg.nore.

Strange?

Can a mod please look into their IPs?

In the meanwhile, I'll be combing through other posting histories to see if any other users seem like they have alts.

--

EDIT: looks like

ghanti was just banned by Harem.

That account was created on 2011-07-14 16:22:41 and had 10 posts.

Reason: Previously banned user.

Ghanti was a PBU. Great job TL.net moderators. Good to know that at least something was right about our suspicions.

User was banned for this post.

So... you've caught onto our tricks, haven't you, _romantic?


Every tick of the minute hand, a bead of sweat gathers at the bottom of my chin from the expectation of this discovery. It would be him who discovers it all. And I will tell you how.

It has always been a dream, _romantic. Since the dawn of your life to your now prepubescent form, you've acknowledged a sense of presence in a world of others. Of individuals. It is how you all work... up until now. You see, _romantic, it is your brain. The one organ that runs it all. I don't understand how you were able to break through, but all shall be revealed.


I was the ones that conceived you. Yet I was also the one who brought you out the womb.
I was your friend, but I also broke your face on the hot slide during recess.
I am your mother, but I also put my penis inside your mother.

You see, _romantic....

You see, as I have mentioned before, I did not expect you to find out my secret, but I did not discount the possibility. It makes little difference; I have the necessary precautions in place to leave you powerless. You are but one, and few shall join you in your quest; most will mock you such as this Kiante fellow.
As for your powerful friends, the moderators, I have made sure that they shall be powerless. You see, they are constrained by a very powerful magical restriction: proof. They have lost their old means of removing their restriction since the dawn of IP. But I assure you, I have overcome this feeble restriction, so your most powerful ally will not be able to help you.
Soon, the mission will be complete, and then no one will be able to reverse what will come.
