A sock puppet is a "user" controlled by a person with multiple accounts. One person has the "real" account, and controls one or more of these sock puppets. There are often a lot of them for one user and are used to downvote to large scales, cause chat spam, or agreeing with the controller of the puppets to make said controller seem smarter/more reliable.
