Damn them sigs
This user doesn't like sig templates and prefers an oldschool non-templated sig (and contributes to reducing server load by using one).

Not only is there a shitload of superfluous text on the template page (that, while noincluded, is still called on every time this is used on a page), it is designed to be regularly updated (whenever you go on/off-line), meaning extra server work whenever this happens -- boxy talkteh rulz 13:46 12 April 2009 (BST)

I briefly read a recent administration protection case similar to that, and I gathered that it was healthy for the server if the superfluous information was put on the page via a template. Was I wrong? I only skimmed through the case. DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION (TALK | CONTRIBS) 14:43, 12 April 2009 (BST)
Since it's templated, you can have all the superfluous text you like, won't make a dent. -- User:The Rooster RoosterDragon User talk:The Rooster 14:49, 12 April 2009 (BST)
Phew! I was actually thinking, I could have either been right, and helped the server, or dead wrong, and hurt the server even more without knowing it. Thank god it was the former :SDANCEDANCEREVOLUTION (TALK | CONTRIBS) 14:53, 12 April 2009 (BST)
I must have missed that one. Neat trick if it works!
Still, once you get this onto 1000 pages, the constant status updates may cause a bit of groanage -- boxy talkteh rulz 01:51 13 April 2009 (BST)
The thing is, you might be right, but I used the hypothesis about the templated noinclude information and I templated the statuses, the code and everything. Basically, every aspect of this system is templated, so, lets say, editing the 'superfluous information' template twice a day should have the exact same affect as editing my status twice a day. DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION (TALK | CONTRIBS) 13:44, 17 April 2009 (BST)
Well, no. When you update the superfluous text, that only triggers one update since it's only included on this page (and the noinclude tags prevent it spreading further). When you update the status, that triggers lots of updates since that is included lots of times on lots of pages. The software then has to update all of those pages. -- User:The Rooster RoosterDragon User talk:The Rooster 15:28, 17 April 2009 (BST)
So much for wishful thinking. DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION (TALK | CONTRIBS) 15:40, 17 April 2009 (BST)

how can i win the game when your status isn't even accurate?--xoxo 07:54, 20 May 2009 (BST)

Because I hate you. Erm, sometimes when I'm only going on for 5 minutes I don't bother changing it. DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION (TALK | CONTRIBS) 07:59, 20 May 2009 (BST)
:(--xoxo 08:02, 20 May 2009 (BST)
Yeah... Well, if I did change it, it would only be idle anyway. So you wouldn't be able to advance on the final goal anyway. :( DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION (TALK | CONTRIBS) 08:29, 20 May 2009 (BST)
