As a reference, which might be interesting, David makes checks every day. Yesterday (a bad day I guess), he made over a hundred checks. At this rate, clearly, more than 1 and actually more than 2 must have the tool in the hand.
Yeah. Yesterday I was running a check on someone with lots of dialup accesses (AC matter, and the user came out completely clear, by the way). This means check every IP ...
I could easily spend two or three hours a day doing nothing but CheckUser. Considering I'm currently marked "away" on the en: ArbCom due to work pressures, I really really don't have the time ...
en: could easily do with another five checkers. All five of the new ones are on the ArbCom too, by the way.
We could also do with a closed mailing list for CheckUser users - IP matching is an art, not a science, and needs experienced knowledge and peer consultation of what's a match and what's a coincidence. (It'll also help me/us work on [[m:Help:CheckUser]] ;-)
