All The Tropes Wiki Project, Part XXV
RE: All The Tropes Wiki Project, Part XXV
#5
We appear to have a new user trying to pretend to be Scott Cawthon, the creator of Five Nights at Freddy's, going by the name "New Scott cawthon fnaf". The "New" in the user name is suggestive -- and a little research seems to indicate that we did indeed have someone else claiming to be Scott Cawthon visit the wiki before the Great Hack of Orain, but who left no real traces behind.

Anwyay, the one edit he's got in the mod queue looks like he just copied another wiki's page (in English and Russian). If it weren't an edit to his user profile page I would have nuked it immediately; as it is I'm still inclined to on copyright grounds. And I'm assuming on general principles he's not really Scott Cawthon, which should merit both deletion and a ban right there.

I just wanted to bring it to everyone else's attention in case there's a reason I shouldn't treat this guy as a drive-by fraud who doesn't care about the wiki as long as he has a place to spew.
