I'm noticing that you're labeling your talk posts "[[User:Kumquaticus|*BOOM!*Kumquaticus*BOOM!*]] [Date and Time (UTC)]Kumquaticus". I assume the code you are using to add your talk page comments is "[[User:Kumquaticus|*BOOM!*Kumquaticus*BOOM!*]] ~~~~Kumquaticus"?

You do not need to add "Kumquaticus" to the end of "~~~~". The function of "~~~~" is to replace that text with the date and time from when you saved the page. You're probably getting this confused with something like, "{{User:Kumquaticus/sig}} [Date and Time (UTC)]". Anything that is surrounded by curly brackets (as in my example) signals MediaWiki to embed a page (in my example, a signature subpage in your userspace) into another one. I hope this clears things up; I'm not too sure how well I did explaining that. --75.5.176.233 02:01, 11 December 2008 (UTC)
