I'm thinking telling people to vandalize your page is a stupid idea. Not only does it ''encourage'' vandalism, but some people might take it a bit too seriously and put bad things on your userpage. What if anonymous users did that? Then most people would assume you are putting swearwords on your talk page. Just a warning. {{User: Seriously/sig}} 20:31, 6 February 2006 (UTC)

Hey The thing. I hope you're kidding about trolling. It is a very serious offense, and no matter how much one dislikes a wiki, vandalism should never be an option. (Not even on the Wooky, which by now is almost 100-percent vandalism.) Also, I was hoping we could keep these boxes ''positive'', not negative.

Hi The thing, thank you for reverting my page and helping revert that vandal's annoyances.  I am leaving you this message to let you know that page move vandalism needs to be reverted carefully. It is not enough to simply move the contents of a talk page back to its destination.  The entire page has to be moved back (and should work if there have been no edits made on the redirect), sometimes this comes to the point where an admin has to rectify the situation.  Just wanted to let you know for future reference. --[[User:Stux|Stux]] 15:36, 11 February 2006 (UTC)
