It seems like @Shadow7001 is a sockpuppet of @MeiouHades, and MeiouHades apparently received a 1-year ban in September 2025, which they requested to become permanent, so since it is not September 2026 yet, I suppose that this is a rule-violation.

Are you absolutely sure? I am not a sock-puppet of anyone. I am in a Discord group where he and other members are present but I'm not his sock-puppet. Furthermore, and I didn't mention this to anyone because it wasn't relevant, I'm a friend of another banned user @Ryzen7900X who had told me to make a VSB account and help with some revisions since I knew the tiering system wellIt seems like @Shadow7001 is a sockpuppet of @MeiouHades, and MeiouHades apparently received a 1-year ban in September 2025, which they requested to become permanent, so since it is not September 2026 yet, I suppose that this is a rule-violation.

Guessing either merged Email Address or IP Address connection? I do not remember seeing either details back when it was pending on the approval queue.It seems like @Shadow7001 is a sockpuppet of @MeiouHades, and MeiouHades apparently received a 1-year ban in September 2025, which they requested to become permanent, so since it is not September 2026 yet, I suppose that this is a rule-violation.

Would it help knowing that I am almost always on a VPN when surfing the internet (including now)? I usually do it to protect my privacy but idk if that's helpful here.

If it cannot be disclosed publicly out of concern for my privacy, is it possible to DM me the details? I can't find the option to DM anyone ever since I've been here.It is another type of overlap that our forum registered between the two accounts.

I would rather not reveal how our forum discovered the overlap to you. That might make it easier to avoid getting detected in the future.

Well I don't know what to tell you Antvasima, or how else to prove that I am not sock-puppeting any user. I am 100% sure this is a mistake and I'd still at least like to know what it was so I could prove otherwise but if that's not possible then fair enough I guessI would rather not reveal how our forum discovered the overlap to you. That might make it easier to avoid getting detected in the future.

What were the exact reasons for the 1-year ban? I don't remember.It seems like @Shadow7001 is a sockpuppet of @MeiouHades, and MeiouHades apparently received a 1-year ban in September 2025, which they requested to become permanent, so since it is not September 2026 yet, I suppose that this is a rule-violation.
Still, pretty grave indeed.

Nobody tagged me on this recent report for some reason.
The reason for my seeming behavior is because I repeatedly tell the Digimon debaters I talk to to actually give scans for what they're talking about, since a lot of their claims are noticeably embellished for what their scans say, especially in the case of the user I was talking to. If I ask for scans and they make sense, I just say thank you and back off.
My interactions in the Death Battle thread are not all bad, believe it or not, as the people there actually helped me through my harsh feelings towards virtually everything they've done with Pokemon. I shouldn't have problems with it anymore. I also kinda realized what the thread does to me, so I've mostly left it in favor of writing all the CRTs and profiles I have planned instead.

Toxicity. Although if they are the same person then his behavior seems to have improved significantly, from what i have observed, but that improvement doesn't excuse sock-puppeting
- 14,139

You literally accused me of using a "crack pipe" instead of actually request scans, you did NOT ask "repeatedly talked for me to give scans for what i was talking about", not to mention you didn't give scans yourself
also you immediatly followed by saying i was "Making shit up", and even when i send scans you still stayed with the same aggressive and mock tone
You didn't actually say "thank you" neither did you "backed off"
Will leave the decision to staff, but i had to correct some things about what you said here and what you did there in the Death Battle thread, will not comment further unless requested by staff or some important information is necessary

Like, even if what Omega said above were incorrect, this is just silly, I'm sorry. You got unnecessarily rude over what amounts to be incredulity on your part. They don't owe you anything, your behavior is simply inexcusable.
Like, I get on one part getting frustrated because people on that thread constantly bait and want to mess with you. But here you went on completely unprovoked. And your justification for that is... Because you disagree with how they rate a series? Nah, fam.
You're half on the right step. You are recognizing you have an unhealthy demeanor. However, as can be evidently seen on the topic reported, you still went out of your way, unprompted, to mock someone and the verse they support. Combined with your extensive history and the multiple chances, warnings, bans and legit people trying to get through you (as I've seen it on so many discussion threads is kinda crazy), the fact you default back to the same behavior is tiring.

It was not just you.
I've spoken to a LOT of Digimon fans over the years, for reasons you're now aware of, and they all do this to some degree. I've watched some of them actively switch up what Wargreymon's Terra Force is depending on what they think would do the most damage to Charizard (Fire, pure energy, a miniature star, technically being Grass type, and so on), and this has happened for many different topics. The wildest claims I've seen have definitely come from you though, and while I don't just spam requests to see scans, it shouldn't be a question about whether I know what you're even talking about.
Also "Source: Crack pipe" is a meme for when someone says something weird. It's like when someone says "Sir, this is a Wendy's".

It's way more likely that their auto translation just messed up half the post. Common bug of the forums.
Because their scans are in english, and after a certain point the post goes on in english.
Edit: Let them know about posting in english regardless.

Yeah, to me it seems like a French speaker trying to write in English (by itself or AI), but only semi-worked, as some parts are in English and some are in French.

Since I was the one who filed the original report against @Meiouhades, and I also submitted the DM report against this new account, I believe it is clear that this is a blatant sock-puppet of the same individual.It seems like @Shadow7001 is a sockpuppet of @MeiouHades, and MeiouHades apparently received a 1-year ban in September 2025, which they requested to become permanent, so since it is not September 2026 yet, I suppose that this is a rule-violation.
This is a new account that exhibits the exact same behavior patterns: a hard support for Dragon Ball (particularly regarding dimensional shit), hard opposition toward Naruto and Tensura, and a highly similar choice of wordingthat used by Hades. All in just... a few weeks? While this may not be impossible to a single user could conclusively prove on their own, system-side verification should make this fairly straightforward.
Additionally, the user was “invited” into the Dragon Ball supporters’ server, which is notable because that server rarely invites new users, especially those who have been active for less than a year (I'm not referring to Robo from the next ss btw). This invitation occurred despite the account having fewer than 100 comments and being A WEEK OLD.
I am fully confident that these users were aware of what Hades was doing and actively assisted him in violating the rules. This was nothing more than blatantly acting. Hell, he even publicly admitted via a Reddit comment that he continued working with them after his ban.
While the pattern is clear, I do not currently have direct evidence to conclusively prove this last point.
And ofc his "Shadow" Discord account is also new (Aha, you created a Discord account exactly one week before joining the forum? lmao)
"Member since 29 Dic 2025"
Given how much Hades mentioned that he changed and he really DIDN'T, even saying that he would stop being in Powerscaling and more bs to elicit pity, it would be best to give the user a Perma-ban including IP. Unfortunately, I'm not the one who decides these things.
On the other hand, Idk if the case of the Dragon Ball Supporters should be evaluated? I repeat, I'm pretty sure that there isn't a single instance where they haven't helped him break the rules for this.

I don't believe that inviting a helpful member into a supporters' group, or collaborating offsite on a project with someone who has been banned here, is sufficient evidence to suggest, or even imply, that they are involved in assisting the user in sock-puppeting. I maintain my own server where I invite only those I find helpful or chill or trust worthy, often, I invite people shortly after a first encounter based simply on a positive first impression or good vibes. These stuff do not imply involvement in assisting the violations, in my view.
Let us know if you find anything relevant to this case.
- 874
- 834
Like I said, I can't prove it. But everything I showed previously, at least for me, gives me certainty that they clearly knew. I'm not going to keep pushing this specifically since, as I mentioned, unfortunately I can't prove anything because I'm not on the server, and clearly the people inside won't be transparent about this.
I will simply wait for the MeiouHades case to be decided and give more input on this if necessary.

Well, I think that the combination of evidence here (including from our sockpuppet detection) seems to clearly show that Shadow7001 is MeiouHades.
Regarding Sean, am not sure for how long we should ban him from our forum, or if bans from the discussion threads where he has been causing problems is sufficient.

Okay, but our forum's detection system has not been wrong yet in the cases when it states outright that somebody uses a sockpuppet account by my experience, and in this case the detection was preceded by somebody suspecting that they are used by the same person before I even checked.

Definitely agree with this.That said, I also don't think that we should accuse other members of deliberately conspiring with him without further evidence.

I am addressing this for the server. Whether Meiou is shadow or not is something I am not interested in debating; that judgment is up to you.Since I was the one who filed the original report against @Meiouhades, and I also submitted the DM report against this new account, I believe it is clear that this is a blatant sock-puppet of the same individual.

No, we genuinely do not know that. Ryzen informed us that Shadow is his friend who created a VSBW account, as shown here.
There are multiple instances, shown above, where supporters were genuinely weren't aware that shadow and hades are same person or not, which is evident from them conversing simultaneously at the same time.If you still believe we are acting in bad faith, @Qawsedf234 is also present in the server and can vouch for us if necessary. You are accusing us without any evidence solely because I invited him?
Above Reddit post proves nothing. Being banned from the wiki does not prevent someone from contacting or collaborating with supporters to formulate arguments, and to my knowledge, the wiki does not prohibit this,Treating that post as proof is a significant reach.
Finally, if possible, I would like to report @AmonInChains for making repeated false accusations and collectively targeting the entire supporter group without presenting any verifiable evidence. I believe this behavior constitutes a clear attempt to smear the supporters through targeted and coordinated harassment, framing unsubstantiated claims as fact. This appears to be aimed at discrediting the group as a whole and potentially encouraging mass disciplinary action or bans, all while relying purely on assumptions, speculation, and personal bias rather than concrete proof.

Well, Shadow genuinely does seem to be a sockpuppet of Meiou, so that part seems very reliable. The part that isn't reliable is the accusation of conspiracy from other members, but I think that is likely just paranoia due to overactive pattern-recognition. I have that problem myself.
So, given that Meiou seems to have improved their behaviour in their new account, should we only ban that account for 1 year or longer?

That was a different system that our forum system manager tried to build to detect a greater number of sockpuppets, based on an idea from Agnaa (if I remember correctly) about fingerprinting. But that idea didn't work out and was abandoned.
This on the other hand is very different. It is XenForo's own inbuilt detection system, which only reports overlaps in cases of extreme certainty.

... Why would that warrant his ban being lowered? He violates his ban by sockpuppeting, owns up to it, and that results in a lighter sentence?

If Vzear was brought back to the community after his long history of sockpuppeting (which got him permaban), can't it be the same for Meiou? It also helps resolve this issue faster.
