Sockpuppet Membership Removal
Staff maintains a listing of approved sockpuppets, for tracking the various non-human user accounts in existence.
There are a few entries here, which while they are approved as sockpuppet accounts at the time, have no justification for being site members. As such, we have revoked their site memberships:
Roget is name placeholder for former administrator Harmony. The purpose of the account is simply to avoid a bad actor creating an account with this name and impersonating her. The purpose of the account is served by it existing, it does not need to be a site member.
Ramona Vonnegut was created by
A Random Day for in-universe narrative reasons. While this was approved at the time, for a variety of reasons, we should not be approving any sockpuppets for such "narrative" or other uses not strictly related to functioning of the site (e.g. a user is locked out of their account). The narrative purposes this account served have long since been finished, it no longer needs to be a site member (and should've never been approved in the first place).
Fred423 was also created for "narrative purposes" which are likewise long over. As noted in the sockpuppet list, staff no longer has direct access to this account. It serves no purpose on the site and is a liability.
