This is not a general problem – you can leave a message anyway, but your IP address might change during the discussion, and I might end up talking to a wall. Creating an account does not require an e-mail address; all you need is a password and a name. You are not required to do this, but please consider creating an account before starting long-term interactions with other users. Thank you very much in advance. 
Off topic, perhaps
[edit]Hey, I saw you were checking on that Pantrail already so I'll leave it be. But, a question--would you mind adding to your user page that you're an admin and a CU? I think for other users that's probably useful information. Thanks, Drmies (talk) 01:38, 21 September 2024 (UTC)
- Hi Drmies, ahem. While I assume that by checking, you refer to the block, I hereby disclose that I have performed checkuser checks in this matter including on the Pantrail account.
- I would value a second pair of eyes on the alleged connection between Xerxescience and Pantrail described at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Xerxescience. My current state is "possilikely", with the actual connection between Pantrail and any specific account being irrelevant enough to block Pantrail for purely behavioral reasons.
- Regarding my user page, if I hadn't promised in Q4 to display recall information there, it would probably not contain any hint of usergroups or editing privileges. By those who neither know nor know how to check, the meaning of adminship is often misunderstood, and I'd like to avoid those who haven't interacted with me in an administrative capacity from suddenly feeling as if they were doing so automatically. This is why I thanked SoWhy for a mop icon yet reverted it in Special:Diff/925568723. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 01:48, 21 September 2024 (UTC)
- No, I looked at the CU log--I was actually checking another account in that history, but that showed no evidence of foul play. I think the technical evidence is strong enough, but the behavioral evidence makes it a perfect match, IMO. Thanks, Drmies (talk) 01:59, 21 September 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks, that's a very valuable second opinion that made it much easier to close the SPI. I have now blocked both accounts. In general, I perform more checks than closing SPIs, especially when I think a situation needs to be looked at and might be simple, just to be hit with a case full of questionmarks and silently leaving it for a more experienced checkuser. So when you see me checking in response to a SPI, please don't let that stop you from taking it. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 15:29, 21 September 2024 (UTC)

Hi ToBeFree. You indeffed this editor due to them persistently violating WP:RUSUKR but it seems they have made a new account. I have created a report here. If you could take a look, I would appreciate it. Thanks. Mellk (talk) 18:34, 21 September 2024 (UTC)
