Just a Suggestion
I may be jumping the gun (forgive the pun), but I reckon your hunting rifle suggestion will very quickly be torn to shreds by a baying pack of angry voters, who will then proceed to insult your intelligence and breeding. Please, consider putting your idea up here first. --Sir Bob Fortune RR 22:23, 4 August 2008 (BST)
- He's probably too busy making his suggestion to even know he got a message. So just let him make it. I'm itching to throw down the first Spupe vote. --AXE HACK TALK χIII 22:29, 4 August 2008 (BST)
- Race you :) --Sir Bob Fortune RR 22:32, 4 August 2008 (BST)
Um...Do what Bob said. Summit it to Talk:Suggestions first, to get some opinions from other voters and such. And an advice of my own...Lay off the firearm suggestions. They'll be Spaminated/Duped right before you can say "What do you think?" --AXE HACK TALK χIII 22:57, 4 August 2008 (BST)
I'm curious where you got the template or whatever you used to make that suggestion. You seemed to include a vote from Cheese from March 08. I'm pretty sure that Cheese doesn't have a time machine... Pretty sure... And by the way, don't copy people's votes. It's impersonation when you sign someone else's name to a post they didn't make. --– Nubis NWO 23:11, 4 August 2008 (BST)

Perhaps it's best if you work on the suggeston on Microsoft Word or Notepad first, than copy and paste it to the wiki. I find it easier to make 2 sets. One for Talk:Suggestions and another for when it goes to voting. And be sure the voting set include the suggestion templates:
<nonclude>
{{Suggestion Navigation}}
{{TOCright}}
<nclude>
===SugHead===
~~~
'''Suggestion type'''<br />
Skill, balance change, improvement, etc.
'''Suggestion scope'''<br />
Who or what it applies to.
'''Suggestion description'''<br />
Full description. Check spelling and be descriptive.
{{Subst:SuggestionVoting}}
And make sure the Talk:Suggestions set has this:
===Suggestion===
{{suggestionNew
|suggest_time=~~~~
|suggest_type=Skill, balance change, improvement, etc.
|suggest_scope=Who or what it applies to.
|suggest_description=Full description. Check spelling and be descriptive.
|discussion=|}}

Welcome to our Wiki
Hi Swizzler! As we can see, you made your first edits to this wiki not long ago. It's OK to be new, and we encourage new blood to join and enrich our community. At the same time, we understand that no one is a perfect wiki editor straight off the bat, and, just in case you get stuck, here're some useful tips to help you out. Please take the time to read them.
| General Editing |
Further help for editing the wiki can be found on the Help page. |
| Project Mentor |
|
Project Mentor has been set up to allow new wiki users to have a more experienced wiki veteran mentor them for the first few weeks. Visit its page for more information! |
| Your User Page |
|
One of the great things about the wiki is that every user can have his or her own user page! These pages are located in the User: namespace — in other words, they all begin with "User:" (yours is User:Swizzler). The appropriate place to write about yourself or your characters is on your user page, or a subpage of that page (e.g., User:Swizzler/Your Character's Name). Please don't create pages about yourself outside the User: namespace. Those pages will be moved into subpages of your user page, and the original speedily deleted. If you want something to be deleted, use the speedy deletion page; that's why Criterion 7 was made. |
| User Talk Pages |
|
Every user has a talk page, found by clicking the "discussion" link at the top of his or her user page, or by going directly to it (yours would be User talk:Swizzler). If you have a question for someone, or want to say something to him or her, his or her user talk page is the place. However, many users on the wiki have established specific guidelines for how their user talk pages are to be treated — where new comments should go, how they should be written, what is or is not okay to talk about, etc. Be sure to look for guidelines on the talk page before you leave a comment. If you don't see any guidelines specified, the assumption is that you should place your comment at the bottom of the talk page, under a level 2 heading. This can be accomplished by clicking the "+" link next to the "edit" tab at the top of the talk page, or by manually typing in your message in this format: ==Message title==
Your message goes here When replying to a comment already laid on the page, remember to indent it correctly: do it by inserting as many colons plus one to the message you're replying to at the begining of your message, like this: ==Message title==
Your message :User's reply ::Your reply |
| The Suggestions Page |
|
We know that as a new user, you want to share your ideas with us. But a community as big as ours has already seen all kind of suggestions, and it's possible that we've already seen something very similar to the ideas you have. Follow these simple guidelines to make sure that your suggestion gets the respect that it deserves:
|
| Additional Contacts |
|
If there's anything not covered by this introduction, you still have plenty of avenues to find some extra help. Project Welcome and Project Mentor are perfect starting points, but if you have something more pressing at hand, don't be afraid to get in touch with the administration staff. |
Remember: These guidelines may look difficult to learn and follow, but they're mainly just common sense! Think about what you're going to say or do before you do it! If you don't make an effort to do so, then why would others have the obligation to be nice to you? Feel free to ask any Project Welcome member if you need help, that's our purpose anyways!
If you want to delete this text, just delete the {{Welcomenewbie}} line from your talk page. Remember that you can always have access to these tips on the Project Welcome/Welcomenewbie page.
