RE: Malton Observer

If you're referring to the News at a Glance comment in the January 12th issue, I was referring to the fact that your posts on Brainstock were nearly incomprehensible, save for the posts that were completely incomprehensible. I used the phrase "Speaks in Tongues" to allude to the Pentecostal practice of shouting out gibberish and pretending it's some kind of spiritual language, which is based on a well-known passage from the Christian Bible in which the apostles experience Xenoglossy. In short, I was making fun of the fact that your posts were poorly written and extremely difficult to understand. --William Told and Co. ಠ_ಠ ಠ_ಠ ಠ_ಠ 21:29, 27 February 2009 (UTC)

Also, red font on a black background can be very hard on the eyes. I'd change it if I were you.--William Told and Co. ಠ_ಠ ಠ_ಠ ಠ_ಠ 21:29, 27 February 2009 (UTC)

Testing ground

Oh good god, yet another page with black background and silly font tags in headings! Um, anyway, your test page has been moved to User:Fanglord2/Testing Grounds -- boxy talkteh rulz 06:59 27 February 2009 (BST)

Sigma

Can you update the Sigma roster on the wiki for me? 
I would do it myself but im a bit occupied at the moment. 
If you cant get to it no problem i will do it some other day.
Use this for reference: 
Sigma Platoon Roster
Also i could use some help with making a siggy for the 
wiki cause each time i try it gets all messed up, 
i will show you what i got so far latter. 
Thanks in advance.
Fanglord2 00:49, 25 February 2009 (UTC)

I'll update the page, that's not a problem. But I can't do the roster list until members choose what RT they want to take (Medic, Engineer, Infantry, etc). We get that sorted first, then I'll fix the wiki page. :) --D.E.ATalk 13:04, 25 February 2009 (UTC)

Ok i just have to wait for the Sigma users to pick their RT then i will leave ya another message. Fanglord2 17:14, 25 February 2009 (UTC)
Ok nevermind about the siggy thing i almost have it done then i will use it. Anyway can i use the main layout for your 
user page but edit it for my own? I would really apreciate it, 
hope to hear back from ya. Fanglord2 17:17, 25 February 2009 (UTC)
Oh sorry! I forgot you asked me for help with your siggy. If you still need help, then just ask. As for my wiki page, yeah you can take it. I actually copied it from another user, and just worked it to my own styling. So yeah go for it! --D.E.ATalk 17:35, 25 February 2009 (UTC)
Ok i got my siggy check it out User:Fanglord2/sig but how do i make it apear 
as my actual sig instead of this one --->Fanglord2 00:32, 26 February 2009 (UTC) 
Go to your "my preferences", add this exact code (including the brackets) into the nickname box {{SUBST:Nosubst|User:Fanglord2/sig}}, and make sure the box marked "Raw signatures" is ticked, then click save. That's it :) --D.E.ATalk 11:35, 26 February 2009 (UTC)


ok thanks man --Chairman Fanglord, 15:18, 26 February 2009 (UTC)

Recruitment Advert Alphabetizing

I notice that you have been consistently removing the Abandoned's advert post and putting it below the Arcadiac Socialist Survivalist Party and the Area 51's group advertisements. If you haven't noticed yet, our advertisement is to be left alone except by registered members of the Abandoned, and any attempts to move it below the two groups stated above will simply be revised. The reason why our advertisement is on top is because when alphabetising, one goes by the Proper Noun (in this case, Abandoned), not the adjective. This is true with the other recruitment adverts, and so is true with anything under the category A. I also left several notes in the History tab of the Recruitment section, with the hopes you would see them and stop messing with the order of the adverts. I hope you understand this well. --Private Mark 07:26, 15 July 2008 (BST)


thxs for clearing that up i usaly go by the first letter/word for ordering, and i never knew so thxs for telling me

You're welcome. I'm glad we've reached an understanding here. :D --Private Mark 02:39, 25 July 2008 (BST)

Hi and Welcome:)

I'd just like to say that unlike some people, I like that you're making suggestions, even if some of them are not really workable. I thought the group radio one was great.

Three pieces of advice though:

  • 1) full automatic weapons will get spammed up the wazoo every single time... sniper rifles too, as well as any sort of gun which can fire from inside a building to the outside ... and if you make a firearms suggestion in general, try to make it something which has not been seen before if you want it to make it to even Undecided, let alone Reviewed (I've made 3 unconventional firearms ideas so far, which got undecided votes, though the nailgun might get to PR next time).
  • 2) Think out your suggestion ideas before making them so you have responses to people who will try to slam them (and they will try to slam them - it's the internet after all - home of the flamewars). Make sure to format properly and try to include at least a skeleton version of stats and mechanics that you're proposing - it makes it easier for people to know what they're commenting on. People will more likely support an idea that seems well thought out and researched than one which seems unfinished and unpolished.
  • 3) Check the Frequently Made Suggestions list - just because your suggestion idea is in that list doesn't mean not to suggest it, but it does mean you need to be ready to explain why your suggestion is different than the many similar ideas made before.

Also, there are a lot of jerks on Talk:Suggestion who will probably rag on you - don't let them get to you. In general, people tend to be ruder on the internet than they'd ever dare to be in real life, but there are also some really nice people who, even when they disagree with your ideas, will do so in a mature manner and will sometimes even give you ways of making your suggestion more palatable to the UD community.

I look forward to seeing more of your suggestions :) --Tselita 14:30, 28 May 2008 (BST)


Actually, I am this rude in real life. People are slamming his suggestions because most of them are dupes, horridly vague, or he doesn't listen and respond to input on them. There seems to be a lot of that on that page.

Here is the problem with you, Fanglord2, and the Suggestions page. You aren't reading what people are saying that is negative about your suggestions and learning from it. You aren't working on an idea after you throw it out there. You had the gall to say that the discussion was boring. You don't research any of your suggestions. You don't really seem to know how a wiki works.

And to answer your question, No it isn't "copying" to use an older idea and 'improve it. If you add something new to it you just might get something Peer Reviewed. I know it is boring going through all those old suggestions. We don't like going through them when people dupe something, but we do to show you where that idea has already been taken. We do it to help you. That's why it really makes people annoyed at you when you ignore or dismiss a link or if you can't be bothered to look for some of your own links.

If you have an idea type it in the search box and see what pops up. It might lead you to another idea. If you are serious about coming up with things to improve UD first of all you have to show that you actually know and play the game. Second, you need to see if it has already been suggested. Third, you need to listen to your fellow players.

And on a wiki it is customary to respond on the page someone left the comment on. You don't have to respond on their talk page. It breaks up the flow of the conversation. If they are going to reply to you they will check your page where they left their comment.--– Nubis 23:14, 28 May 2008 (BST)

Talk:Suggestions

When making a new suggestion, remember to also copy the last two lines (the discussion header and the horizontal line) as described in the How To section. And please read the Frequently Suggested page before putting anything else up for discussion. --Midianian|T|T:S|C:RCS| 00:10, 27 May 2008 (BST)

kk want me to fix all my suggestions?--Fanglord2 00:23, 27 May 2008 (BST)
I fixed the first you put there, but the others, yes. And please keep this discussion here, I don't like have one half of a discussion in one place and the other half in another place. --Midianian|T|T:S|C:RCS| 00:30, 27 May 2008 (BST)
what is there to fix it looks like just about everyone elses and it seem to be in working order so i dont see anything to change.--Fanglord2 00:35, 27 May 2008 (BST)
This is what the How To reads:
===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=|}}
====Discussion (Suggestion Name)====
----
And this is what you did:
===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=|}}
Notice the difference?
If you didn't understand what I said above, I'll say it again; please do not reply on my talk page to messages I leave on your talk-page. --Midianian|T|T:S|C:RCS| 00:48, 27 May 2008 (BST)
i know u said not to write stuff here but how are u supposed to know i wrote somthing and the only reason i nver put

Discussion (Suggestion Name)

that part in my suggestion is because itf for disscussion i thought you people that discuss it would put it there.
If you'd read this, you would know how I know when you write something.
You're supposed to include the discussion header because it makes adding comments easier, and ensures that the formatting is uniform. --Midianian|T|T:S|C:RCS| 01:17, 27 May 2008 (BST)


Don't Spam the Talk:Suggestions page. --– Nubis 00:46, 27 May 2008 (BST)

UD Survivor Diaries

This page has been deleted as a Deletion Workaround. The original deletion request is here. It was deleted as it was a Dupe of the Journals page. Please do not recreate it as it will be deleted again. If you continue to recreate it, it may be seen as vandalism and you may receive a formal warning. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to reply on my talk page. Follow the link from the "ese" part of my signature. -- Cheese 22:31, 26 May 2008 (BST)

If you restore the page once more, I will take this to Vandal Banning. Please stop recreating the page. -- Cheese 22:37, 26 May 2008 (BST)
It's ok. I suggest you read the welcome newbie template below. It gives you some basic pointers on things around the wiki. Particularly how to sign your posts. Don't be a nobody. It's helpful to know who's speaking. If you need any help, just leave me a message. -- Cheese 22:44, 26 May 2008 (BST)
I do. I'm primarily the Leader of The Randoms as Cheeseman, and I've been playing for more than 2 years now. I also a sysop on the wiki so I get a few extra buttons to play with. -- Cheese 22:53, 26 May 2008 (BST)
To be a sysop you need to do the following: get involved in the community on pages such as Policy Discussion, Deletions, Speedy Deletions, and various other bits and pieces. This details the various conditions you have to meet, but it doesn't happen overnight, it took me two years and three Promotion bids to become a sysop. About an alliance, head to our forums and introduce yourself, I'll talk to my command team and see if we can work something out. -- Cheese 23:02, 26 May 2008 (BST)
Policy Discussion is actually to do with the wiki. Sysops are not involved with the game in anyway (as in we don't control the game) we just keep the wiki tidy. Please remember to sign by the way. -- Cheese 23:17, 26 May 2008 (BST)
To be honest, getting involved in all the red tape and bureaucracy of the wiki when you're first starting out is like running before you can walk. The best way to contribute when you first join is the suggestions pages, particularly the Suggestion Talk page, you can give your opinions on other suggestions and discuss your own ones before you properly submit them for voting. That's how I started off. The internal workings of the wiki are pretty confusing to be honest. Not even I understand them all. - Cheese 23:25, 26 May 2008 (BST)
It's ok. I've found it. Talk:Suggestions#Assualt_weapons_.28AK-47.29. Gun suggestions (especially Assault Rifles are shot down (so to speak) very quickly. There are a few guides on what to avoid when writing a suggestion. You can find them all . Policy wise, all you need to do is just contribute to the discussions that are taking place on the talk pages of each policy and help thrash out a decent workable version that'll pass voting. -- Cheese 23:37, 26 May 2008 (BST)

I removed the links to the current suggestions because for some reason it was listing his talk page as if it was in that category instead of linking to suggestions. I don't have the time to fix it right now. --– Nubis 03:10, 27 May 2008 (BST)

Look out! It's an upset tanker! [runs over Fanglord with tanker] --Tony Feld 19:50, 9 May 2008 (BST)

HAHAHAHA!!!

Actually, everything I said WAS true. Check the history of Axes High's talk page. Additionally, I received a pm on your boards half requesting, half ordering, our help in Perryn.

Both of these were from Braden, and I've since spoken with him about it, and the issue has been resolved upon that front. You, however, continue to portray yourself as a trenchie jackass... and it's getting pretty old.

Your lack of communication with your teammates is NOT my problem, so resolve issues internally before pointing fingers, mmkay?

Peace, --Hardcore Rockabilly 20:06, 11 August 2008 (BST)

Listen up Fanglord:

You're a group leader, which means it's your job to know what your team is doing. Also, engage your brain; If I reference an edit to AH's discussion page, don't jump the gun and say I'm lying. Go to the talk page, and see for yourself. Here, I'll make it easy.

http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php?title=Talk:Axes_High&oldid=1216405


I'm going to send you a PM on your boards, we can wrap this up there. Email notification comes with PMs, but not talk pages.

(Oh, and that faglord thing, that was a typo. Well, might have been a Freudian slip, but still. In the end, I blame Tonyay ;)

U.C navbar

Hi Fanglord. Nice work with the navbar. We could really use a better navaigational system for our main page but then we already have links for Victor, Omega and Whiskey platoons' pages and one at the bottom for U.B.C.S. All we needed was just a link to the UCC. I guess we can thank Thadeous for the one thats currently up... if he was the one who put it there lol! =P. --D.E.ATalk 18:13, 29 August 2008 (BST)

You forgot to put your comment header in green... no matter though, I did it. Anyway what I mean about the nav system is something like this...

Victor Platoon | Omega Platoon | Whiskey Platoon | U.B.C.S

I could't work out what the UBCS code was so I stuck in Company Allies instead. Edit the UC main page, paste the code in at the top somewhere and preview it to see what I mean =) --D.E.ATalk 16:01, 30 August 2008 (BST)


well i fixed it checked out all the links heres an example ofm the mistake were making when you put #Victor_Platoon you dont need the # and the _

it should have looked like this:

this would be the exact name of the page->Victor Platoon|{{c|red|Victor Platoon<-is what you want it to apear as on the navbar
      

here it is finished i think unless you want to add more to it.

Victor Platoon | Omega Platoon | Whiskey Platoon | U.B.C.S

Fanglord2 17:19, 30 August 2008 (BST)

Oooo! A Whiskey member are you! That platoon's filling up quite nicely =). Did you take up Airheadoh's offer to be second-in-command of Whiskey? Anyway back to business... that "#" wasn't a mistake. On the Philosophe Knights page, they have a link at the bottom of the page that says "back to top". When you click it, it returns the page to the top again. Thats what I was considering for Umbrella. That code I used is right... I checked it myself. Basically its along the same lines as the table of contents at the top of the page there. When you click one of the headings, it automatically takes you to that corresponding topic... do you see what I mean.. thats what that code I put in will do =) --D.E.ATalk 18:02, 30 August 2008 (BST)

oh i understand i will try to see if i can fix it up a bit also could you give me a link to his user page thing and yes i did take the postion of second-in-comand.--Fanglord2 18:11, 30 August 2008 (BST)

Click here for Thadeous' talk page =). --D.E.ATalk 18:16, 30 August 2008 (BST)

When you click one of the headings, it automatically takes you to that corresponding topic... correct me if i am wrong but dont they need to have their own topic/section for that? cause omega and whisky are in a section called platoons...Fanglord2 18:19, 30 August 2008 (BST)

wait nvm i tried that on a different page and it dident work--Fanglord2 18:30, 30 August 2008 (BST)

omfg i think i got it theres just on problem lol i will get it fixed though--Fanglord2 18:48, 30 August 2008 (BST)
