-Same ''modus operandi'' as {{user|RandNetter96}} (confirmed sock) and {{user|Drill it}} (suspected sock, globally locked) - quick fire use of anti-vandalism tools with little to no communication or accountability. {{quack}}.

-:Could you explain how that user is a sock of ItsLassieTime? [[User:DarkMatterMan4500|DarkMatterMan4500]] ([[User talk:DarkMatterMan4500|talk]]) ([[Special:Contributions/DarkMatterMan4500|contribs]]) 14:49, 13 August 2021 (UTC)
-::{{u|DarkMatterMan4500}}, Because RandNetter96 was blocked as one, Drill it was globally locked by a steward with no prompting, and all three accounts have the same behaviour. Rapid-fire use of anti-vandalism tools, refusing to respond to multiple "shouldn't you have assumed good faith" messages, and adding very short ANI threads with very little context for minor incidents. This matches the behaviour mentioned in the LTA case : "{{xt|In 2017 and 2018 a pattern of making mass reverts, templating users, and (as usual) reporting users to ANI was observed}}", citing {{user|Sakaimover}} and {{user|Architect 134}} as examples. Essentially, I have spent some time explaining to these accounts why they should assume more good faith and what they can do to improve, only to ultimately find they have been blocked as a sock having bitten a number of newbies in the process. I hope I'm wrong with this one, but I don't want to go through all that discussion again.

-:::Hmmmm, yes. I see what you're talking about now. I've been looking at the Long-term abuse case against ItsLassieTime, and one of them states "In 2017 and 2018 a pattern of making mass reverts, templating users, and (as usual) reporting users to ANI was observed".

-When Ritchie blocked Drill it, he tagged the account as a suspected puppet of this master. I don't know if any check was run then or since to provide technical corroboration of Ritchie's belief. I believe the previous confirmed socks of ItsLassieTime are stale. However, the suspected puppet here is not, and neither is Drill it. I am therefore requesting a CU for confirmation and to see if any other prolific editors like Rdp (75K edits!) have slipped through the cracks. Personally, I don't think it's a duck.--[[User:Bbb23|Bbb23]] ([[User talk:Bbb23|talk]]) 12:31, 13 August 2021 (UTC)
-:Passerby {{clerknote}} {{noping|Architect 134}} and {{noping|Sakaimover}} are from a [[Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Architect 134|distinct case]] which is unrelated to ItsLassieTime. --[[User:Blablubbs|Blablubbs]] ([[User talk:Blablubbs|talk]]) 15:04, 13 August 2021 (UTC)
-{{Cudecline}}. Lack of evidence beyond "this person is doing a thing someone else did" and a veteran admin saying "I don't think it's a duck" does not make me feel like going on a fishing expedition. Ducks can be blocked without a CU check. [[User:Primefac|Primefac]] ([[User talk:Primefac|talk]]) 15:43, 13 August 2021 (UTC)
