You, my friend, are the worst offender. You're a 31 year old, and you're spending hours a day policing and monitoring this garbage? What kind of pariah do you pretend to be? Please, I implore you; others will follow your example if you leave and never come back. Do I need to make this one bold, or doyou get the message? And please, don't block me. It's just pointless, you're hiding the treal moral under some stupid phrase like "troll."

Hey, I was just wondering why you blocked the anonny 68.39.230.211, when he'd only made three edits? Yes, he plugged the Sandbox with nonsensical links, but couldn't you have talked to him and asked him to stop it? I'm not sure if you did talk to him or not. If you didn't though, then 1 week was probably a little harsh. {{User:DevonM/sig}} 20:17, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
+
-
:Meh, maybe you're right. I was going primarily from {{p|l=http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=HRWiki:Sandbox&diff=prev&oldid=568565 this edit}}, and I thought that the anonny had been reverted three times and was being persistent with adding those links. I'll unblock for now. &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 20:44, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

-
::Whoops! Sorry if there was a misunderstanding. I was just fooling around and deleting some spam from the sandbox. The anonny wasn't spamming any other pages than the sandbox. {{User:Super Turtle/sig}} 21:51, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

:::No need to fear, Turtle, you acted correctly. Dotty just got a little carried away&mdash;which he ''rarely'' does, I might add, he does a bang-up job here and I'm personally proud of what he's accomplished&mdash;and made a premature judgement in absence of the facts. He fixed it, and all is well now, all is safe and sound. Sleep peacefully. {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 02:10, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

Okay, I know you have a fanstuff talk page. But this is serious. Joshua, the sysop, did something like blackmail. Now the forum is messed up and Super Sam blocked him. Can you please fix this mess? {{User:Sam the Man/sig}} 14:47, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

::Edit conflict: Lies. All lies! Clearly I'm the only one who knows how it all went down. Joshua randomly bans Super Sam on the forum and then Super Sam screws around with the forum skin for revenge. Also I think Supra tried to block Joshua on the wiki but Joshua just unblocked himself. Just a spot of fun, no need to get all grumpy about it. I think it's pretty dang hilarious the way it's going down. {{User:Shadow Scythe of Strongbadia?!/sig}} 05:39, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

== If you notice anything strange... ==

This may just be me being paranoid, but I just thought I'd let you know that MySpace told me I got phished and... I kinda had this thing going where I used the same password for everything... including my email, in which I saved an email to myself detailing how to log in to my account on this website...
+
-
 
+
-
So, if anybody does anything funny under my account, I just thought I should let someone with special authorities and privileges and whatnot know about it (although I have since changed my password). I might start a new account just in case, but I'm not sure yet how that'll work out.

Anyway... now you know. {{User:Lux Acerbus/sig}} 18:10, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

-
:Don't start a new account. Changing your password should be adequate. By the way, to add a section to a talk page, just click the little plus (+) next to the edit button. It will give you a place to enter the thread header and format it automatically. &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 18:14, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

== Forum Redirect ==
+
-
 
+
-
Since the HRWiki forum is down, alot of the regular users have taken refuge to http://www.inversetiger.com/forum/ .  However, pretty much the only way for people on the forum to communicate to each other now is by email.  Since barely anyone shows their email address, the last resort option is to communicate by editing your sig.  Even then, most people don't go looking through a locked forum looking at people's sigs(which is where I found the link).  The result: Only the regular users found link.  So, I figured that it would be best if you posted some sort of link on the front page of the Wiki or something so people can find it.

== Fanstuff Purge: Wiki User Emails ==
+
-
 
+
-
There are currently a few Wiki User Emails on the list of fanstuffs to be saved, and it's been decided that this would be a great chance to get them over to the Wiki User Wiki. My question is whether it would be easier to use whatever fancy method you're using to transfer them across or whether it would be easier to just do it manually.<br/ >
+
-
Cheers, {{User:Super_Sam/sig}} 19:39, 3 August 2008 (UTC)
+
-
:I don't know if this is the specific fancy way that DC's going to use, but if you want to transfer stuff, then the easy way is to go to [[HRFWiki:Special:Export]], and put in all the page-names (one per line), and mash go. That'll give you an XML file that you can feed into Special:Import on WUW (you'll need to be sysop to use Special:Import, but Special:Export can usually be run by anyone). As well as being able to copy lots of pages in one hit, you can also (if you want) include each page's history, and all the templates they use. {{User:Phlip/sig}} 22:47, 3 August 2008 (UTC)

Looking at [[Talk:Main_Page#Read-Only_Forum|this]], it appears a lot of the forum users have been giving you grief over the locked forum. I just would like to pause for a moment and say thank you.

What did that template look like? I created a temporary HRFWiki and need the Main Page/Fanstuff template to look like it did at the real HRFWiki. The URL for the temporary HRFWiki is http://homestar.referata.com. I also need a dump of all the templates and MediaWiki messages for it. {{User:Dagoth/sig}} 00:19, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

[http://www.mariowiki.com/Special:Recentchanges Check this out]

It's the recent changes page of The Mario Wiki. I made an account there, and I realized on the recent changes page, there's a little section for who's currently logged in. I figured I'd ask you if we could possibly make this a feature here. It would make things alot easier when trying to contact users and such. --{{User:TheDenzel/sig}} 18:11, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

:[...] This would indeed be interesting, but people shouldn't have their identities exposed just because they're browsing. Part of what a lot of people like about reading a wiki is that you're not publicly logged unless you edit. And there's the thing: one should be able to tell who's online well enough just by looking at the recent changes. &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 04:25, 3 December 2007 (UTC)

:::The above link to that template talk page has nothing to do with what I'm talking about.

:Strictly speaking, yes, I am making fun, but I'm not trying to be mean.

I myself blank the sandbox on occasion, but not like clockwork. Generally speaking, having a blank or non-blank sandbox makes no difference, and so I find it interesting that you've kept it up. But I'm just teasing, not trying to be offensive. :) (By the way, if it's not obvious, the icon there is a blank sandbox.)

:Wow, Nikolce, long time no hear from. We don't really have a template for that kind of thing, but you can make a banner by taking some code from one of our other templates and putting it on your page. Then you can update the message to suit whatever you need it to say. I'm curious how long a while is (your last edit was last April, which is what I'd consider a while). &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 11:42, 26 January 2009 (UTC)

:Block you? You're wrong though. We consistently treat scenes as though the characters have normal arms and/or fingers (regardless of what's "really" the case) and are directly manipulating objects.

Revision as of 22:10, 23 March 2009

You, my friend, are the worst offender. You're a 31 year old, and you're spending hours a day policing and monitoring this garbage? What kind of pariah do you pretend to be? Please, I implore you; others will follow your example if you leave and never come back. Do I need to make this one bold, or doyou get the message? And please, don't block me. It's just pointless, you're hiding the treal moral under some stupid phrase like "troll."
