[edit] Sockpuppet ?

I posted something similar on another user:talk page about this..

This internet IP address is used by an internet cafe. It has literally hundreds of different people using it every day. It is therefore inevitable that there will be at least one user who, unfortunately, uses it for vandalizing articles and pages. While it is understandable that people would want to clean up the vandalism, it is entirely inappropriate to place the "sockpuppet" banner on this talk page, as the vast majority of users of this internet cafe, I would state, are NOT vandals, and have nothing at all to do with the vandalism. If there is a logged in member using this IP and vandalizing pages, then please do block them, but to say that the IP itself is a vandalaccount or "Sockpuppet" is totallt inappropriate. If say someone using the hub from Cambridge vandalized wikipedia, would you then block the whole university? Please show restraint in the future. If members vandalize pages, by all means block them, but if it is a multi-user IP address, any "sockpuppet" tags are not appropriate or fair. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 41.245.143.193 (talk)
