Editing the Wiki

Dickholeguy & Arbys.jpg

The voting period passed. Could you remove this comment since it is obviously meant to stir up more drama, that this situation clearly doesn't need? Thanks! --Amanu Jaku 10:37, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

Done. Thanks for spotting that. Cyberbob  Talk  10:48, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
Thanks. I'm just sick of the whole discussion. --Amanu Jaku 10:52, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

Dickholeguy and the inability to follow directions

Despite there being a discussion page on the topic, he chose to talk about it on the policy page itself. Which, I might add, is also designed to inflame things further, just like the last post. --Amanu Jaku 07:38, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

Sigh. Fucking Dickhole. I'll move his post to the talk page. Cyberbob  Talk  07:41, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

Question

Well, Xoid isn't answering me. I've noticed you've been active. Can you sith down with me and take a look at Kevan's wishes and work on this? I'd appreciate it. Otherwise I guess I'd just post several more blatantly copyrighted images for deletion. --Akule Maker of fine, hand-crafted UDWiki sass since 2006 -- Akule School's back in session™18:05, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

Er... I'll try, but I can't really promise anything. I know sweet FA about legal stuff. Cyberbob  Talk  18:07, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
Whoops. Sorry about the formatting. If you prefer, could you confer with Xoid and figure out what we are doing? --Akule Maker of fine, hand-crafted UDWiki sass since 2006 -- Akule School's back in session™18:13, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
Sure. I'll bring it up next time I talk to him on AIM. Cyberbob  Talk  18:14, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
Have you heard anything further on this? --Dr. Frank Sloth Akule News - All The News That's Fit To Print. 19:44, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

Hello!?

how u do dat? how u make box wit circle? --Grundo 03:02, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

What do you mean? A box with a circle inside of it? Or a box with rounded corners? --Hubrid Nox Mod WTF U! B! 03:11, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
who put circle in box???? box in circle of curse! circle in box jst stuoid! --Grundo 04:32, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
Hrm. I don't know how to do that. Sorry. --Hubrid Nox Mod WTF U! B! 04:51, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

Copyright Criterion

So, where are we on this? --Dr. Frank Sloth Akule News - All The News That's Fit To Print. 15:18, 3 February 2007 (UTC)

Sorry, I keep going to answer you, but something else always grabs my attention. I spoke to Xoid... and he pretty much reiterated the points he made in your discussions with him. Maybe try asking Kevan what he thinks of this? He is, after all, the one who's going to pay through the nose if (and this is very unlikely) a company ever decides to sue for an image or whatnot on the wiki. --Hubrid Nox Mod WTF U! B! 15:32, 3 February 2007 (UTC)

Nogginbasher

What do you say? I think we'd better retract the warning from Nogginbasher, seeing the guy that usually edits that page says he's one of their group -- boxy T L ZS Nuts2U DA 23:50, 10 February 2007 (UTC)

I'll get right on it. --Hubrid Nox Mod WTF U! B! 23:59, 10 February 2007 (UTC)

Ironash

Has made a sockpuppet,here. --Cap'n Silly T/W/P/CAussieflag.JPG 20:39, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

I think he wants to use that new account as his main. --Hubrid Nox Sys WTF U! B! 07:38, 21 February 2007 (UTC)
Hmmm, I am a dumbass sometimes. --Cap'n Silly T/W/P/CAussieflag.JPG 07:40, 21 February 2007 (UTC)
Yes, I would like to use the User:Sgt Scharffbillig as my account. I do have another character named Ironash in UD. Can I use both here or am I limited to one account? If so I would like to use the Sgt Scharffbillig.--User:Sgt Scharffbillig/Sig 0915, 23 Feb 2007
Yes, you're limited to one account. Ironash is going to have to be banned. --Hubrid Nox Sys WTF U! B! 22:48, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

Vandalism warning

Excuse me, but why did you post a warning for me to "not vandalise this wiki"?!? I've been a regular participant on this wiki for nearly a year and a half and have helped monitor and maintain scores of pages. On what possible basis have I been accused of vandalism?! I would appreciate it if you removed that statement from my talk page. Thanks --Gilant talk-DEM 13:48, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

Ah, I went looking about, found the vandal banning page and read the entry. It looks like a decision was made that I obviously agree with and am grateful for. Should I still post on that discussion or let sleeping dogs lie? Given the decision made I will go ahead and remove the warning from my talk page (invalidating the link above) - I hope that is OK?
Oh, might I also suggest adding a link to the appropriate section of the vandal ban or other moderation page when placing warnings on users talk pages? I'm afraid I'm one of the many users who rarely look in on the inner workings of wiki moderation, and usually only when someone I know has pointed out something to me they feel I should be aware of. And someone with less experience on the wiki than I might not even be aware there is a vandal banning page to go look for. Thanks again --Gilant talk-DEM 14:01, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
You're definitely allowed to remove the warning - whoever retracted the warning (I think it was Gage) should have done so at the time. As for that link idea... that's a pretty good one. I'll try to put links in all my future warnings, and I'll encourage the other sysops to do the same. How's that sound? --Hubrid Nox Sys WTF U! B! 20:17, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
Quite helpful. (and even good for us lazy types ;) Thanks! --Gilant talk-DEM 03:19, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

Criticism

Your Sig

Can you please act like a mature editor? Dislike with one blinking sig does not mean it's good to make a two line blinking monstrosity. I expected better of you. --Darth Sensitive Talk W! 02:43, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

I'll remove the blinking. But know this - this came about due to boredom, not immaturity. Cyberbob  Talk  05:13, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

Last Warning

It is my last warning? What about my first warning?

As for allegedly 'attempting to force the American way of doing things on others', how in heaven's name did I ever acquire this amazing power? I fail to see how I have may have favoured either spelling. If you read my post on Funt's talk page and had any intelligence whatsoever, you would detect facetiousness with a hint of sarcasm. As for my terrible act of vandalism, which was simply putting a strike out through a few words of Funt's, I suggest you either expand your sense of perspective and of humour, or failing that, go flog your dummy. You obviously have a prejudice against Americans which in this instance has led you to react disproportionately with the zealousness of a Klu Klux Klan member at a lynching. I await your apology in earnest.--SporeSore 18:24, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

You are not allowed to edit other people's comments. This includes votes. As for it being your "last" warning - you already had a warning when you committed that act of vandalism. I refuse to answer the rest. It is unworthy of a reply. Cyberbob  Talk  07:11, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
I disagree, it is very worthy of a reply, since you were accusing me of something I was not doing (trying to impose Americanism) when you were actually the one guilty of acting with bias. I'll accept charges of vandalism (I have since thoroughly read the Suggestions page rules and now know that Funt was allowed to delete the Re to his vote) but I will not accept charges for that which I am not guilty. I will refrain from this terrible vandalism that I have wrought and instead concentrate on using the rules to legally belittle and delete oppositional edits, a skill which regular users of this wiki have honed to perfection.--SporeSore 13:06, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
Bias? What do you mean? Cyberbob  Talk  13:15, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
Christ, it is pathetic what abject boredom will lead one to do. Just ignore me. Oh wait, you were probably already doing that! Please continue--SporeSore 02:36, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

So what, I like attention. --CaptainM 21:31, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

Well, yeah, I know, but you don't have to try so hard. That little comment in superscript there is definitely OTT. Cyberbob  Talk  03:26, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

"...Don't be afraid to let your colors shine."

Holy CRAP. Whats with everyones sigs suddenly becoming like a pack of Starburst fruit chews? Yours in particular is a veritible rainbow o' flavor. YOUR NAMES ARE DELICIOUS. :p --MorthBabid 19:25, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

Heh. I was just bored. Cyberbob  Talk  05:07, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

Help

hey, can you help me clean up my user page? i'm not very good with html etc.. pretty please? bassist55

Er, to be honest, neither am I, but I'll see what I can do. What did you have in mind? Cyberbob  Talk  12:07, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

Feel like helping that newbie

He knows what he's doing. I told him how to sign his vote and he decided not to. That's pretty much vandalism. --Jon Pyre 07:13, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

He then fixed his signatures when he realised what he'd done wrong. --Hubrid Nox Mod WTF U! B! 07:19, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
After deliberately messing up to further his joke. And no, this guy can spell. Who mispells made "mde"? Mayde, maid, mayed, maied, mayd, mad, those are mispellings. mde and the like is just joking around. I was polite in the face of being directly insulted, and told him how to sign his vote. I think that's pretty polite conduct. --Jon Pyre 07:25, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
It seems a lot more like a deliberate joke by means of 133t speak. And to avoid taking the chance that he was mispelling repeatedly I told him how to fix it. Also, please don't leave large images on my page as a joke. --Jon Pyre 07:31, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
Hey, he can talk however he likes. But it's better he learns not to joke with wiki code sooner than later before he messes up a template and shuts down a page. --Jon Pyre 07:39, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
I couldn't agree more. Which is why I didn't. Like I said, his vote is pretty clearly a deliberate joke. If I thought he actually had trouble writing I would have been a lot more helpful and wouldn't have made that little joke back about it not being English. And if I thought he accidentally messed up his sig I would have provided more guidance. --Jon Pyre 07:44, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
Eh, maybe. I don't think you really could mispell "--~~~~". I put it right there for him. And just in case it was a mistake I'll send an apology his way and offer to answer any questions he might have about voting. --Jon Pyre 07:51, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

Gage

Was he really a model user? Corrupted by power then, was he? --Cap'n Silly T/W/P/CAussieflag.JPG 13:21, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

I wouldn't say that... more like jaded by continual attempts at rebellion and attacks on him by people who didn't like his decisions (that's not an attack on anyone, by the way - that's my honest opinion). --Hubrid Nox Mod WTF U! B! 13:27, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

Suggestion Response

Yes that was quite the Freudian slip, wasn't it? --ZombieSlay3rSig.png 16:32, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

"Ban Jedaz"

I really didn't follow that whole thing so I never associated you with it at all. I think the whole mod staff are doing a great job, even the ones I occasionally debate, and any policy suggestions I've been making recently aren't in response to any specific incident or person. --Jon Pyre 04:31, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

OK, thanks. I'll try to moderate my impulses, but would you please tell Matt that just because I personally dislike him does not mean I'm biased? I don't let that get in the way of my decision-making process, and just because he disagrees with me does not (necessarily) make my decision unfair. --Hubrid Nox Mod WTF U! B! 04:34, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

your block of FuckYouAll

This username is inappropriate, isn't it, it would be a good idea if renameuser could be installed here so that these names could be changed. myrtone@ 01:00, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

I think it would be a good idea to install RenameUser too, but not to remove bad language (we don't do that here). --Hubrid Nox Mod WTF U! B! 02:32, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

February 2007

Um...

Why did you move my request for modship into the unsuccessful category? I had 3 vouches, and waiting on a few more people who said they would change their votes. I had not had my bid moved into community discussion for some reason, despite me filling the required categories. I did not want to move it myself, for obvious reasons. Can you please explain? (PS, reply on my talk page thanks)--Ducis DuxSlothTalk 22:36, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

Replied to your message, you may want to double-check a few dates.--Ducis DuxSlothTalk 03:38, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
Thanks. Erm, what happens now with the whole 'discussion' thing? --Ducis DuxSlothTalk 03:57, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
Discussion thing? What do you mean? --Hubrid Nox Mod WTF U! B! 04:04, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
Well, what I mean is what makes me a mod now? The last section was based on voting, now what is it based on? People have a chat, then what?--Ducis DuxSlothTalk 04:09, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
No... people can still vote. After 2 weeks (I think) from when Jon made his vouch, the bid is processed. --Hubrid Nox Mod WTF U! B! 04:11, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
Right, I think I get it now. Hmm, I am also listed in unsuccessful promotions as well. I have not failed yet, have I? ;) --Ducis DuxSlothTalk 04:16, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
Heh. I'll fix that. --Hubrid Nox Mod WTF U! B! 04:20, 3 February 2007 (UTC)

March 2007

Um...

So, what happens now then? The page has not been touched for a month, and nobody has commented or processed or anything... huh?? --Ducis DuxSlothTalk 08:37, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

When (more probably, if) Xoid comes back on, he'll process it. --Hubrid Nox Sys WTF U! B! 09:27, 3 March 2007 (UTC)
No offense to him, but he's taking his bloody time. I would have thought that the mods would be more... punctual with these important decisions... --Ducis DuxSlothTalk 11:02, 3 March 2007 (UTC)
Not much the rest of us can do. Him and Kevan are the only Bureaucrats on the wiki.--The General T Sys U! P! F! 16:19, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

Hehe, he hasn't been here since October, so i've lost hope on him :P.--The General T Sys U! P! F! 18:28, 3 March 2007 (UTC)
Xoid's come down with a mild case of apathy. Next time I speak to him, I'll see if I can't persuade him to come back on. --Hubrid Nox Sys WTF U! B! 23:40, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

Who

Was 3page? I heard that he screwed around with the wiki or something?

Oh, I'm also giving you my vote for 'crat - I think you and boxy are the perfect candidates. Unlike most of the others, you two have heaps of edits (and not just in one are, such as the Lexicon) and are quite level headed. May the wiki live long and prosper! --Ducis DuxSlothTalk 22:37, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

3page was a fairly frequent vandal. Him and PQN were probably the two biggest vandals the wiki's seen. Thanks a heap for the vouch, although I don't really mind whether I'm promoted. I take part in these things to see where I need to improve my conduct etc; not primarily for the promotion (although that wasn't always the case). --Hubrid Nox Sys WTF U! B! 06:13, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

How

Did you get the archive template and drama lama template to alight right at the top of your page? I want to do the same with my talk page, putting them on the same level as the contents. Reply on my talk page. Ta. --Ducis DuxSlothTalk 01:01, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

Wondering

Was wondering about this. Can you give me an explanation? --Ducis DuxSlothTalk 07:16, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

WTF? All I did was remove my name from the list... I'll fix it. Damn that's weird. --Hubrid Nox Sys WTF U! B! 07:25, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

Signature

I find your signed name amusing . . . surely you can't really be that evil? --otherlleft W! 03:41, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

It's part of a little joke a bunch of us played a while ago. I was going to change it back, but I like it like this. --Hubrid Nox Sys WTF U! B! 06:27, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

Mall Siege

why did you delete my modification to "How To Win A Mall Siege" ? --Zokolate 13:47, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

Mainly because you referred to a specific group on a community page, but also because of the comment regarding PKers and GKers. Feel free to comment on them, but referring to them as "bastards" is hardly NPOV, which is what that guide should be. Remember - not everyone has the same views as you. --Hubrid Nox Sys WTF U!
