Because you matched all the IPs from a poster that keeps getting banned, confirming it is the same poster from a block of similar shared IPs, and then you noted they were all very different from other current posters. This is why your information safely concludes no sock puppet programme related activity is going on from that repeatedly banned poster. Hopefully this is now clear and you can stop doing the Columbo impression.
As noted clearly by other posters, there are both dynamic IP addresses, and proxy use of IP addresses. I pointed out that your blocks were similar to those in the past.
After RaceRadio pointed out that there is a difference between an /24 and single IP, you replied:

No, my IP is part of a block of IP’s
This is not the same as my matching all IPs from someone who was banned in the past (who had changing IPs, as I clearly noted). This does NOT prove that you and that person are one and the same. But it does not at you imply mean that you are not based on my research. Twisting my statements to your benefit quite frankly aggravate me.
Either you have flatly lied to divert focus away from the question at hand, did not read the posts, or simply do not understand the discussion.

You didn't actually use the word trolling, but you made two posts that singled me out for trolling activity, without actually citing anything, that clearly implies I was trolling.
Clearly? The warnings I gave you were what I would give to anyone, as witnessed by warnings, and infractions I have given to others. This is not the same as singling anyone out by any objective standard.
As I stated, your failure to answer direct and pointed questions that are pertinent to the discussion, then act like you are being persecuted are in my mind worthy of the then even handed criticism I gave you. And I responded in what I feel was an appropriate manner.
This is not the same as singling someone out or name calling them as a “troll” that you accused me of doing. Once again, twisting my statements to benefit yourself, or inoculate yourself from criticism. By your standards, I could interpret many of your reactions towards my inquiries are accusatory of me “trolling”.
Regarding your statement that I was singling you out from the so called “sock puppets” I asked:
“That is not what I was exclusively discussing, and I don’t recall using that term. Please show where I did.”

I don't know what you are discussing then. Please clarify so there can be no more confusion.
As noted above, you are taking my words out of context, and interpreting them in unethical ways for your benefit.
Rex Hunter said:
I'm genuinely bemused at why you and Susan have suddenly taken great offense to me saying the rules are applied inconsistently.
Because they are not. I have directly explained why I have criticized you for contradictions, and manipulation of the conversation and my, and others words. I have asked you directly, and repeatedly to show in any objective and logical light to why said rules are being applied inconsistently, and your replies to me have been to use more of the same tactics of misinterpreting my statements in a manner that no reasonable person would, without directly answering the questions.
Rex Hunter said:
Don't worry, I'm not going to try to get you the sack or anything.
I’m not worried.
Rex Hunter said:
Has someone made a complaint on my behalf?
Since you have asked, no. Not one.
Contrary to what you may have others believe, I have given you no infractions, though plenty more to other people. I have also openly and directly through PM’s warned several people on here to stay on track, not just you. I have deleted quite a few posts, and locked several threads, but none of them yours.
So, I will ask you once again. Please show me where the rules are inconstantly applied, and unfairly to you by myself, or any of the other moderators.
And as I stated directly, as I will to anyone, if you do feel that I, or anyone else on this site, is singling you out or treating you unfairly, I suggest you contact the administrators about it.
