• Not sure what part of me commenting on their personal attack and their non-response to your post is an indication of me being the same person as them. I'm an IP editor (2804:F14::/32), which, by the way, everyone is allowed to be an IP user, creating an account is not obligatory. – 2804:F14:8081:3201:9827:3072:74BC:2770 (talk) 20:36, 12 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• 98.115.164.53 is CU-blocked by Ponyo. I haven't looked at the CU data and don't see a need for further action at this time, but people are free to argue in favour of more action. --Yamla (talk) 20:40, 12 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
• The IPs aren't even from the same country. Closing. Bbb23 (talk) 12:19, 13 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
