LCD

Hi Dux,

I am sorry to tell you that LCD is disbanding, it was hell of a time we had at SSZ. It would be really great if you guys could vote for us on the historical voting page.

Warmest regards,

Oh, I do my best to not get involved. It seems that Nalikill and Grim have been at the center of it recently. Plus, Grim also seems to be taking swipes at anyone who ever disagrees with him. Fondly reminds me of Gage. --_Ducis ^Dux_Sloth^Talk 06:55, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

True, true. Gage seemed...more bitter though, and more prone to attacking people via their talk pages and not through official channels.

^T|ZC|MI|E! 08:19, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

Sorry to be a kill joy but...

So you know, with your current signature it could force content outside of the normal page area (Specifically the "Ducis" and "Sysop" part) which is against this policy. This only happens on rare occasions, but I just thought I'ld give you the heads up so you were aware. You can see the effect that I described by using alot of text to force your signature just to the edge of the page until part of it wraps around (or just by resizing your browser window). - If Jedaz = 13:18, 9 January 2008 (BST) then pi = 2 + 1

Hmmm, it's more of a browser compatibility and rendering problem, than a violation of a policy. You can still access my userpage even when the problem you describe happens I think. Have a look at the same page in IE and FF. --_Ducis ^Dux_Sloth^Talk 03:10, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

I'm not worried about whether or not people can access your user page, and it's not a browser compatibility or rendering problem. It's doing exactly what it's told, you are displacing text off to the left by a set amount of pixles, this occurs both in IE and FF exactly the same. So when the section which is being offset to the left begins on a new line it has the potential, and I've seen it happen already, to be forced off the normal content area. That is in volation of the policy, intentional or not (I'm assuming not). I'll post a screen-shot of it later if you want me to so that it's clear as to what I'm talking about. - If Jedaz = 03:31, 10 January 2008 (BST) then pi = 2 + 1

I'd love to see some screenshots (I know you're not lying, I'm just curious to see what it looks like). --_Ducis ^Dux_Sloth^Talk 03:47, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

Here you go. This is a screen shot from both IE and FF. As you can see in both of the images they are bordering onto the side bar.

I just used the "Z"s as a example case rather then trying to find where it actually errored up before. - If Jedaz = 04:07, 10 January 2008 (BST) then pi = 2 + 1

Huh, wierd. Ok. Well, I'm still kinda reluctant to change my sig. Is there a way to achieve the same desired effect with different code? --_Ducis ^Dux_Sloth^Talk 04:28, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

Unfortunatly, not that I know of. I had my signature like yours a while ago, but I changed it because of this issue. It's not really a major issue as it only occurs occasionaly and it doesn't block any of the links, but still I thought you should know about it. - Jedaz [04:36, 10 January 2008 (BST)]

Headers

Actually, I prefer plain text headers... often the ones with code in them don't work when you click on them in recent changes (I just get taken to the top of the page rather than the section in question) -- boxy ^{talk • i} 11:35 6 January 2008 (BST)

I thought it might have just been the way I've got my preferences set, or my browser, or something. But if it happens to everyone... why do we insist on putting coding in the headers? It's a bit of a mystery really, sometimes it works like normal when there's a link in the header (I've noticed it work on the deletions page), but mostly it doesn't... never been able to sort out a pattern to it though -- boxy ^{talk • i} 12:25 6 January 2008 (BST)

Yeah, it's a limitation in the wiki software, this provides more information on it but the problem is with Pipe functions, Deletions works because there is no pipe function in the links, most of the time, Karek will cause summary problems, however User:Karek shouldn't.--Karek^maps?! 00:03, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

Ah, cheers for the link. --_Ducis ^Dux_Sloth^Talk 00:33, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

Your signature

Your old sig was awesome (the "log by") one. The new one is...less awesome, but still better than mine. --Pdeq^Talk* 20:05, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

Ah, I know - but I wanted a sig that fit in with my current page theme. I thought a simple one with background colours would be best, if a little plain and over-done. --_Ducis ^Dux_Sloth^Talk 23:32, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

It definitely fits your theme. Any objections to me taking your old one so time in the (distant) future, or might you be using it again? You are the best person to steal...err, borrow...code from. --Pdeq^Talk* 23:34, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

As long as you change it enough so it's unrecognisable. I originally got the foundation of the code from Jedaz' sig. They look pretty different, huh? --_Ducis ^Dux_Sloth^Talk 23:50, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

Your talk page (FF vs Safari)

(While the original conversation was started to just call Dux's page ugly)

Used to be awesome, although a bit complicated. Now....-- dǝǝɥs oʇ ɯɐds: sʎɐʍ1ɐ! 20:19, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

Now? I wanted to see what I could do instead of having separate headings for every person. A few people were confused. I'll have a go at this format, and switch back if the other one is better. --_Ducis ^Dux_Sloth^Talk 23:34, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

It's no longer broken for me, your talk page that is. -- AHLG T G THE END IS NIGH! 22:50, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

Yeah I've tried to get all of the formatting and code to look exactly the same in IE 7 as it does in FF. --_Ducis ^Dux_Sloth^Talk 23:34, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

No no, it looked messy in Safari. Rounded borders + close together = messy. -- AHLG T G THE END IS NIGH! 23:48, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

Well screw Safari. Use Camino if you want something to still look shiny like Safari, but have FireFox at the core of it all, complete with extensions. --_Ducis ^Dux_Sloth^Talk 23:51, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

It may not have all that many extensions and such, but it sure is fast. Fastest, if I may say so. :) -- AHLG T G THE END IS NIGH! 23:58, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

Oh, and you bought into all of that marketing about browser speed and rendering? You realise that it is that fast these days, with any modern system you will see almost no difference? --_Ducis ^Dux_Sloth^Talk 00:00, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

Still noticeably faster :). Probably safer too, although I've never tried Safari on a PC. -- AHLG T G THE END IS NIGH! 00:08, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

Safari on PC sucks balls. Again, I'd go with Camino if I were using a mac (which I will be getting one soon). --_Ducis ^Dux_Sloth^Talk 00:09, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

Mmmm. Can it check both grammar and spelling, though? Safari can. -- AHLG T G THE END IS NIGH! 00:11, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

Auto checks spelling, and I'm sure there is a grammar extention too. That's the thing - you can make FF do anything you want. --_Ducis ^Dux_Sloth^Talk 00:13, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

Except mute sounds. No extension will stop FF from playing certain sounds. :( --Pdeq^Talk* 00:18, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

Does the edit window like FF unfortunately, no likey. Oogly. Does all the FF only things, rounded borders, font looks (a few are pixelish) etc. Same speed for loading pages, except slower on the pics. Not bad, not bad. I think I'm going to replace FF with Camino. Still keeping Safari, though. -- AHLG T G THE END IS NIGH! 00:21, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

I know realise that this format encourages discussion amongst different users on my talk page, and the other more useful for finding info quickly and keeping everything categorised. --_Ducis ^Dux_Sloth^Talk 00:06, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

It's a better format overall, but I think it's a bit ugly. Your last one was all swanky and stylish looking with pretty colors that made my eyes hurt (well, all semi-bright colors hurt my eyes. So I guess that doesn't quite matter anymore), while your new page is ugly, yet easier to edit. No copy-pasta of the colored headings. When you're done with this layout, try combining the two. Oh, and I modified the header to help suit my original reason to come here. Hope you don't mind. :D -- dǝǝɥs oʇ ɯɐds: sʎɐʍ1ɐ! 00:35, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

Question

Question:

The Surrealists

Dux, might I inquire as to the current status of this fine group? I see you revitalized it relatively recently, with limited success, but I do not know if it is still active. It would be a terrible shame for the Surrealists to be lost. -- User:VI/signature 20:05, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

It's not really active at the moment. I had one real other member, and a few other interested parties, but I never had the time to run a group. My PKer is now just a general member of Red Rum. --_Ducis ^Dux_Sloth^Talk 00:07, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

That's a good, positive take on things. So, how's UD? Any of your alts bored and wanna rejoin Ghetto Cow for a bit?--Lachryma^☭ 00:31, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

I've decided we are going to take Moggridge PD to bug the RRF. The gathering point is the SW corner of Nichols, stop by! (And come to the NMC forum too, if ya want)--Lachryma^☭ 02:38, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

Why's my signature all wonky?

Hey, I haven't been very active lately, but I'm back, and for some reason, the timestamp on my signature is acting all wonky! Do you have any idea what's causing it? It's a bit rude looking, the way it stands... Also, for the life of me, I can't recall how to change what zone my timestamp is in (I want to change it from BST to UTC). Thanks! --Morgan Blair 20:00, 24 April 2008 (BST)

Well, I solved the wonkyness, so you can't see what it looked like anymore... In short, the timestamp looked like it was in a

<pre>

box below my signature, and totally breaking the style of each and every page it was in. The cause? I'd had an unclosed <sup> tag in my sig's M.E.R.C.Y. link, and when I simply duplicated that portion of code to add a NecroWatch link, it somehow caused all the wonkyness. So it was my original sloppy wikicode coming back to bite me.

However, I still can't figure out how to change my timestamp's zone... --Morgan Blair 20:26, 24 April 2008 (BST)

As I mentioned on Boxy's page, If it doesn't have to be in wiki syntax I could throw up a version like the one you want in like 5 seconds. But the way it is now Instead of seperating it into three rows and then in those tags adding all the column tags for the column in that row you seperated it by columns then put in all the rows in that column. Makes it so that it would be easier to put lines under each row than between each column_{(cause you can't edit one section of code to effect the whole column.)}--Karek^maps?! 01:46, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

Now, I need your opinion. Should the questions be dealt by a 'crat, or could it be a sysop? I think it'd be fine either way, as they're going to be the same required questions every time, but whats your opinion?-- dǝǝɥs oʇ ɯɐds: sʎɐʍ1ɐ! 06:15, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

An unbiased sysop sourced from a small pool of promotion-overseers could be an idea. 'crats have been known to be away or too busy to deal with promotions in the past. Or just have the 3 standard questions listed already, and sysops able to list their own optional questions underneath. --_Ducis ^Dux_Sloth^Talk 06:18, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

First draft done.-- dǝǝɥs oʇ ɯɐds: sʎɐʍ1ɐ! 06:28, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

Did a few grammatical edits, but other than that, I like it. --_Ducis ^Dux_Sloth^Talk 06:34, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

Alright, I'll work on the indication of trust now.-- dǝǝɥs oʇ ɯɐds: sʎɐʍ1ɐ! 06:38, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

Yes and commented. :) -- dǝǝɥs oʇ ɯɐds: sʎɐʍ1ɐ! 06:43, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

Sorry about that. >_< -- dǝǝɥs oʇ ɯɐds: sʎɐʍ1ɐ! 07:10, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

No problem. Think it's good enough for submission for policy discussion? --_Ducis ^Dux_Sloth^Talk 07:11, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

Sure, unless you have any more to add. I'll leave the policy page creation up to you.-- dǝǝɥs oʇ ɯɐds: sʎɐʍ1ɐ! 07:13, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

Welcomenewbie templates

What's all that template code you added about? -- AHLG T G THE END IS NIGH! 01:15, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

Well I still want to revise the welcomenewbie template, and try to find some use for it. I think there is little point adding it to new user's talk pages, but I'm sure it could be used in some other fashion. --_Ducis ^Dux_Sloth^Talk 01:19, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, instead of a big template, there could perhaps be a simple "hi" and a few links to help pages, mentor, simple stuff like that. I just hate seeing red links.-- AHLG T G THE END IS NIGH! 01:22, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

Well, that's the point of the {{Welcomenewbie?}} template. Still, I want to somehow merge the two. --_Ducis ^Dux_Sloth^Talk 01:27, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

As a new user, I found the welcome template to be fairly cold unwelcoming. The first edit I made was to delete it... When I got around to needing it, I ripped it off some other n00b's talk page and still couldn't find exactly what I was looking for on it. I usually end up going to w.pedia's cheats (example: available web font list). Not picking you guys or project welcome. The n00b template just seemed to fall a bit short for me. I am sure tons of people try to make a UD user page for the first time, make one mistake, freak out, and never log back in again.--A irborne88

If it's not too much trouble, please rule- I just want to go to sleep, I've been kept awake by this case. Thanks. Nalikill ^{TALK E! W! M! USAI} 06:11, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

It's already been ruled by Hagnat, has it not? --_Ducis ^Dux_Sloth^Talk 10:45, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

Controversial cases generally require multiple sysops ruling to make the drama come to an end. I advise extreme objectivity here, Dux; Nali obviously came to you because he expects you to rule in favour of him. --Cyberbob ^{DORIS CGR U!} 10:46, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

You might find this policy document informative mate. --The Grimch ^{U! E! WAT!} 11:13, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

Uhm, You really can't rule Bad Faith but Not Vandalism, that's just asking to lose a misconduct case.--Karek^maps?! 12:22, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

No, that's me ruling that the action in itself is not vandal-worthy, but still not a positive one. That's my ruling, like it or not. And it's not in contradiction with the policy, Grim. --_Ducis ^Dux_Sloth^Talk 19:16, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

Arbitration(it's not vandalism)

No, I moved it to the talk page, where commentary belongs. Nalikill ^{TALK E! W! M! USAI} 21:11, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

And if it's not too much trouble, could you strike one of my warnings? (now that I'm eligible.) Nalikill ^{TALK E! W! M! USAI} 21:12, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind. How about that warning, though? Nalikill ^{TALK E! W! M! USAI} 21:41, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

How about you stop bugging me? --_Ducis ^Dux_Sloth^Talk 06:15, 19 January 2008 (UTC)

Policy Edits

Alrighty, you can revert it if you want. -- AHLG T G THE END IS NIGH! 03:56, 4 May 2008 (BST)

It's fine, just ask next time. --_Ducis ^Dux_Sloth^Talk 04:01, 4 May 2008 (BST)

ZOMG IZ DUX

How's it going, man? Long time no see/talk/type/etc. ᚱᛁᚹᛖᚾᚨᚾᛏ 23:53, 22 March 2009 (UTC)

Hells yeah

I'm one of the current 'Crats. It happened right after I became a sysops too, close run with Nubis. Where have you been Dux man? How's the drug business?--Suicidal Angel, Help needed? 20:10, 24 March 2009 (UTC)
