My fellow Dinkers,

I humbly offer my evidence for why I believe that skull, Dertin/Dertin2, Jameil, and Slime are, in fact, the same person.

I deactivated the Dertin and Slime accounts a few weeks ago, because it appeared that they were the same person as skull. After Dertin protested, I thought perhaps I was mistaken, and I waited to accumulate evidence.

A couple weeks ago, the Dertin2 account was created. At first, he felt 'different' then skull, but after re-examining the evidence, I am now convinced they're the same person. This is why:

Evidence File 1: Usernames

Dertin and Jameil are characters in Cloud Castle 2. While it is certainly possible both users played Cloud Castle 2 before creating their accounts, I suspect that skull created Dertin and Jameil because he is a fan of the D-Mod.

In his profile, skull says "I'm fan of Cloud Castles"

Evidence File 2: E-mail Addresses

The users all have registered e-mail addresses at 'luukku.com'. Particularly, Dertin has the e-mail address 'skull1995@luukku.com', which seems odd.

When I questioned Dertin about this, he stated that "I did make the e-mail address many many years before skull was even my friend. He would have put a skull named address but somebody was already took it".

At the time, this satisfied me, but looking back it doesn't make much sense. Certainly, he could have created an e-mail address like 'skull2005' instead of 'skull1995'

Evidence File 3: Inconsistencies

Skull recently said that "Just came back from other country. Let's say. I'd got some holidays. I've been gone for two weeks, but yeah! Now I'm back. Just got back 3 days ago.".

Let's say he posted this on May 24th. Later on in that thread, he states that he got back 3 days before, on May 21st. So, he left around May 7th. But, he posted several times on May 11th. May 11th is the day that Dertin2 was created.

Admittedly, this is pretty flimsy. Expecting a 12-year-old person to remember the name of the country they just visited or the exact amount of time they spent there may be unreasonable.

Evidence File 4: IP Addresses

I've saved the best for last, like bacon after a bowl of ice cream.

Skull, Dertin, Dertin2, Slime, and Jameil all use the same IP address (with a few minor exceptions), which is assigned to a DSL pool in Finland. Usually, one IP address is assigned per computer. It is possible that all four individuals use an ISP with a NAT, but this is unlikely, because it is not possible to ping the IP address when skull is not online.

Also, it seems that skull thinks the computer where you create an account is all that matters. Shortly before Dertin2 was created, skull posted a message on a different computer than normal. Then, 7 minutes later, Dertin2 appeared and posted several messages using this same computer. Hours later, he resumed posting using skull's normal IP address.

Conclusion

Skull has created multiple accounts, after being informed that this was wrong. This is not tolerated. I will delete Dertin2 and Jameil shortly. If skull admits to his deception, he will not be banananned.

If anyone objects to my ruling, please reply.
