DEM Ally status

I've added the DEM ally template to your page as part of the process of our groups becoming allies and hopefully working together to combat the zombie menace.--DI Sweeny 23:49, 18 December 2008 (UTC)

No problem mate! Thanks. :D --Haliman - Talk 16:00, 19 December 2008 (UTC)


Bad Things

Yours?

These guys, both wearing UBCS tags, dropped a gen & tried to killed Albert W (bearing a UBCS tag), but failed. Albert was eventually PKed by a PKer. Anyhow, this happened in a Dark which is unofficially designated by the regular inhabitants' as unlit. I GKed and had an exchange of words with Allerie Windrunner. I was later killed by Ephraim Reigner. I'm just wondering if these are UBCS members?

http://udwitness.oddnetwork.org/private/2010/01/udw-20100111-062012-746866940397dad96e61ae4e8782e763-samfibian2.html http://udwitness.oddnetwork.org/private/2010/01/udw-20100111-163759-ecb82f0e97a09c73596cb22176e0438e-samfibian2.html

I did comment on dropping & leaving the gen running as a "noob-move". I also cursed back after windrunner cursed me. In my opinion, I didn't say anything that wasn't merited, much less being PKed & hearing some phony admonishment/decree BS. Maybe in the future you can educate your noobs in the proper etiquette of respecting the surroundings of wherever they might be and leaving an unlit Dark unlit by GKing, nice & tidy like. I thought better of UBCS. Now, I'm not so sure. It would seem they're either bearing false tags, or somehow a couple pea-brained douchebags slipped in unnoticed. Good Luck with that! At any rate, this will give me something to do. --Samfibian 23:21, 11 January 2010 (UTC)

First of all, yes, they're some of mine. I've warned them both about it. You can be sure if this happens again, they won't be pking with UBCS tags anymore. Second of all, if you want to come into OUR talk page, bad mouth OUR members, and ask for US to punish them, don't bother. You could have very easily been the bigger person about this, and just send us the screenshots and give us the brief description. Instead, you did that, AND managed to make an ass out of yourself. They've been warned, and you've been taught. Sorry if I seem like an asshole; I tend to get defensive when jerks enter my page and insult my creations. --Haliman - Talk 23:49, 11 January 2010 (UTC)
I meant you, nor UBCS, any disrespect, only the rogue culprits. Sorry, but I don't see this precisely your way, but I'm fiercely loyal "to group first", so I get you, & respect that - and I'm defensive in much the same way, so I'm not the least bit offended. Just wanted to clarify who's who & aprise you of the situation before I proceed. I was merely speaking my piece - maybe a tad hotly, speaking directly at the suspects via the wiki, having no other ready means - & felt inconvenienced enough without registering at another forum when I already had the wiki open. In the future, should need ever arise, I'll take the time. You can take this down - but I would like a day to check your reply, if you have one - as I'm satisfied with the response. Again, I meant no disrespect to you or UBCS. I've had good relations with UBCS in the past, working together for mutual benefit on different maps, and would hope that still can be the case. Cheers! --Samfibian 02:27, 12 January 2010 (UTC)
Alright then, no harm done. You've shown respect in your latest reply, so you're fine by my book. It's not "Group First" for me. It's an unwritten law that if you PK in the clan, you will be warned. PK again and you will be kicked. I personally take a grim look on PKing. They should know better, but have just lost their warning. Thank you for conducting yourself in a civil way ((Even if I didn't at first :P)) and if you ever have a problem with any of our members again, be sure to contact me here. :) --Haliman - Talk 02:37, 12 January 2010 (UTC)

The Great Suburb Group Massacre, 2009

Check-Mark-Reviewed.jpg Group Confirmed.
This group was confirmed active. Thank you for your reply.


Currently the suburb in question is Raines Hills but one response to this query will be all that is needed to protect your group link on all suburb pages. I know this is a random request but its for all groups regardless of size. Thank you.--Thadeous Oakley 14:54, 13 February 2009 (UTC)

This is bad? D: Anyways, yes we're active. --Haliman - Talk 21:38, 13 February 2009 (UTC)
Confirmed.--Thadeous Oakley 22:06, 28 February 2009 (UTC)

Recruitment Notice

Your advert: Umbrella Biohazard Containment Service/Recruit currently has images totalling more than 56KiB in combined size, to the tune of 12x this limit. Please compress or shrink the image or the advert will be removed in two weeks. -- User:The Rooster RoosterDragon User talk:The Rooster 20:03, 29 June 2009 (BST)

Uhh... I'll try. Images are NOT my specialty. One sec. --Haliman - Talk 04:23, 30 June 2009 (BST)
I have no clue what to do. --Haliman - Talk 04:38, 30 June 2009 (BST)
Well he's talking images. And you have only one image, worth 697.28 KB. Its probably so big because its animated like that. Either you remove the image or you shrink it.--Thadeous Oakley 09:55, 30 June 2009 (BST)
Well forget shrinking, I tried it (with preview button) and even reducing to a tenth of its original size won't cut it. Remove it and upload a different image.--Thadeous Oakley 09:58, 30 June 2009 (BST)
It's mostly because of the animation, far too many frames. Try using a still image, that would likly fit easily. -- User:The Rooster RoosterDragon User talk:The Rooster 15:06, 30 June 2009 (BST)
But... Our header is awesome... Alright, would a still image that size work? I'll get one of my guys on it. --Haliman - Talk 18:33, 30 June 2009 (BST)

Hate to be the bearer of yet more bad news, but the new header is too wide (took a while to take down) and is making your advert too wide on lower res. If you care to shave or scale it down to ~590px or less I think that'll fix it and I promise not to bother you any more :P. You'll need to uncomment your advert after it's fixed however. -- User:The Rooster RoosterDragon User talk:The Rooster 22:21, 24 July 2009 (BST)

No problem. I reduced the size, and added it back. Is that satisfactory? --Haliman - Talk 22:31, 24 July 2009 (BST)
Yup that fixed it, thanks. -- User:The Rooster RoosterDragon User talk:The Rooster 22:34, 24 July 2009 (BST)
Thank god. Lol. --Haliman - Talk 02:00, 26 July 2009 (BST)

Raines Hills

Heard you boys were active in Raines Hills, we could use a hand up here. I can't tlak much about out exact location in the open, send MisterGame to the TNR forum and I'll give him the low-down --Blanemcc 11:52, 13 December 2008 (UTC)

We are not affiliated with Mistergame in anyway. Same goes for Umbrella Corp.--Haliman - Talk 00:54, 14 December 2008 (UTC)
Drive-by Reply!
Its the name Hal, Its all about the name. Maybe you could have used Urban instead of Umbrella. We might have avoided all this crap-tacular nonsense of affiliation. (Just a thought!). --D.E.ATalk 16:46, 24 June 2009 (BST)
Six-Month reply ftw? --Haliman - Talk 17:00, 24 June 2009 (BST)
Lol! Yeah. but you never know who could be reading comments like this these days... like newbies to the wiki who want to join one of our groups and ask the whole "are you affiliated with... etc". Seeing comments like this sets them straight. :P. --D.E.ATalk 10:13, 25 June 2009 (BST)

This page

That page looks a lot like a community page, with the battle template, etc. We've just had a case over at vandal banning about it's contents, so could you please stick a note on top stating that it is a UBCS page, and therefor POV? Linkthewindow  Talk  12:04, 29 December 2008 (UTC)

No problem! I thought you meant the actual group page. xD --Haliman - Talk 15:43, 29 December 2008 (UTC)
See? I even put it in big letters :D --Haliman - Talk 15:45, 29 December 2008 (UTC)
Thanks. Haliman. Linkthewindow  Talk  22:02, 29 December 2008 (UTC)
How's the meth going, Hal? --Met Fan F 21:56, 11 February 2009 (UTC)
I got out of the meth business a while ago. Ask Li. --Haliman - Talk 04:13, 13 February 2009 (UTC)
Who pays me then? --LithedarkangelMeth!The Great Meth Man 04:16, 13 February 2009 (UTC)

Asheets replying to Haliman

Sorry for the delay in answering... My character in Penny Heights is kind of a loner, but is willing to associate with anyone for the greater good. I have the feeling that we'll work together quite often. Asheets 16:02, 19 May 2009 (BST)

As a large, prominant and active group in the Shearbank suburb, we invite you to contribute to the Shearbank Homeowners Association. Thank you for your time. --SamuRyjak 01:43, 26 June 2009 (BST)

BAN APPEALS

I'm going to be banning a large list of known proxy IP's in the coming weeks. If you get banned, appeal under this header. --Haliman - Talk 22:45, 15 August 2009 (BST)

Little change. A slight miscalculation made me ban every IP. Every single one of them. Fixed it though! XD --Haliman - Talk 22:58, 15 August 2009 (BST)

So you are going to ban proxy IP's? Not to discourage you or anything, but you do realize that's a near impossible task right? Proxies are pretty much infinite, unless you plan on banning the whole InTerWebs of course.--Umbrella-White.pngThadeous OakleyUmbrella-White.png 23:12, 15 August 2009 (BST)

I'm getting premade lists of known proxy IP's. --Haliman - Talk 09:09, 16 August 2009 (BST)

Check-Mark-Reviewed.jpg Group Confirmed.
This group was confirmed active. Thank you for your reply.

--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 15:21, 26 January 2010 (UTC)

Yes, we are active. --LithedarkangelMeth!The Great Meth Man 23:28, 26 January 2010 (UTC)
I can confirm that the UBCS are currently active - their Winter Company are chillin' in Judgewood. Chief Seagull talk 15:47, 26 January 2010 (UTC)
You're not one of their members. Please do not respond, unless you're a representative of the UBCS. Thanks. --Umbrella-White.pngThadeous OakleyUmbrella-White.png 15:50, 26 January 2010 (UTC)
Thanks for replying in our name but...Thadeous is right... this one is for representatives of the UBCS. Anyways thanks.--LithedarkangelMeth!The Great Meth Man 23:28, 26 January 2010 (UTC)
Thanks Thad ((yes, I said it)). First off, you too don't have to be mean to Seagull. He's one of our allies. But I do believe they require group members to answer this. So I have a solution. /me restarts the conversation. Hey, Seagul! ((Insert witty recruitment message here)) :P --Haliman - Talk 23:32, 26 January 2010 (UTC)
I wasn't "mean" to Seagull in any way, I merely informed him of the correct procedure, which was to let actual members respond. --Umbrella-White.pngThadeous OakleyUmbrella-White.png 17:01, 27 January 2010 (UTC)

Hi all - sorry if I trod on any toes here, but I was trying to help out. After all there's nothing on that template that says "members only", just "Is this group still active? If so simply confirm here by writing something below". Chief Seagull talk 10:19, 27 January 2010 (UTC)

Common sense would dictate that by placing on the group's talk page, we would in fact want the affirmed group to respond. --Umbrella-White.pngThadeous OakleyUmbrella-White.png 17:01, 27 January 2010 (UTC)

GSGM 2013

I'm a volunteer helping to do some janitorial work on the suburb pages of the wiki. As part of that, we're double-checking in which suburbs each group is active. Currently, you're listed in one or more suburbs. If you would like to continue being listed, then please respond within the next month with a list of every suburb where you are currently active. If we don't hear back from you or we can't get the information we need, we'll be removing you from the lists, but you're welcome to re-add yourself later. If you have any questions, feel free to visit our informational page. Thanks. Aichon 18:25, 23 October 2013 (BST)

Because your group hasn't responded within a month, your suburb and radio listings have been removed. Feel free to relist your group. Bob Moncrief EBDW! 02:57, 26 November 2013 (UTC)
