honestmistake

While grateful for your support in the promotion bid I feel I really should point out that I simply do not have the skills or patience to do many of the technical functions that a sysop normally does. This is not to say that I cannot and will not learn enough to help out, rather to point out that I currently have no clue as to how they work. If you were voting for me because you trust my judgement on issues like A/VB and Misconduct then thank you… if you think I can be trusted to maintain the wiki infrastructure then please change your vote to abstain because I am crap at editing stuff let alone fixing other folks mistakes.--Honestmistake 14:00, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

I'm sorry you're leaving for a while (ever?). From my limited interactions with you, you seem a decent person. Best of luck in your future endeavors! --Pedentic 23:09, 4 February 2009 (UTC)

Best wishes

I'm sorry to hear that you're leaving, Ross. I hope you don't ask for a permaban just in case you decide to come back, but if you don't, I just want to wish you best of luck in whatever you do next.

Are you planning to stick around the game (read the Noise Abatement Society?) --Pestolence^(talk) 02:17, 5 February 2009 (UTC)

Bye Ross. It's been nice knowing you, and I sure hope you don't ask for a permaban. That real world can be scary, you know :P.

Thanks for helping me out on those first few months of the Wiki, and generally being one of the nicer sysops.

Good luck with your degree, and the real world generally.

Goodbye then,

Well I don't know you very well, if really at all, but when it came to being a sysop let me say that you did a very good job. And in the current state of things, that's what we need most. Good luck on wherever you go.--SirArgo ^Talk 07:33, 5 February 2009 (UTC)

Leaving

Sorry Ross, but you are not allowed to leave this wiki. Instead, you are now going to be promoted to bureaucrat without a term expiration. Also, you cannot demote yourself and must give up all your RL pursuits for the wiki. That is all. ;) --ZsL 07:41, 5 February 2009 (UTC)

You have made many contributions to this small corner of the internet, and more importantly have always come across as a level headed and exceptionally likable person.

Your presence has had a positive effect on us all and I wish you the best of luck with your real life endeavors. --  RoosterDragon  16:35, 5 February 2009 (UTC)

*Raises Eyebrow*

Things to do on the Wiki when you're dead. Your magic 8-ball spits out random pages names now does it? (You must tell me where to get one, if it does) What's the idea behind this lark of a page then? --  RoosterDragon  22:42, 1 March 2009 (UTC)

Ah, you're going about it wrongly sir. You want to start by listing all the pages on the wiki and then remove the good ones. It'll go much faster. Yeah, I went there. Take that, wiki! Seriously though, would not making it a wiki-project, or a sub page on CP of "Pages Needing Work" been a little more professional? Ah heck, I'm quibbling, forget about that, mind if I add a stack of pages? I bet I can turn up at least 10 in 10 minutes. --  RoosterDragon  22:54, 1 March 2009 (UTC)

Ok, so the wiki decided to 404 me, and only me, for 10 minutes after you posted. Harsh. Anyway, chucked a few pages up, though I think I cheated by using a few pages I was responsible for making crap. --  RoosterDragon  23:28, 1 March 2009 (UTC)

On behalf of the OBR, thank you. The group has grown remarkably well with very minimal meta-game advertising, so maybe I'm onto something with the district idea. Time will tell! With any luck our numbers will continue to grow and we will continue to climb the ladder on the stats page.

My bad.

Re this -- Yes, I somehow overlooked the (now-obvious) usefulness of the DangerReports. My only excuse is that I thought I had checked them out when I first started here and concluded somehow that they were robot-generated, and that editing would thus probably confuse the robot. I now realize I'd investigated by starting at the link for DangerReportTimekeeperBot and looking for instructions. I didn't see any there, and was sidetracked by that. I'll start putting them back in. --Lariat2301 22:46, 23 May 2009 (BST)

OK, I think I've got it. Why do there seem to be two types of DangerReports? Does the "PIN" type work the same way? No DangerReport existed for Karnaus Row Fire Station, so I created one (can you check it for correctness?); is there anything else that needs doing to register it with the update robot, or does it just use the category list? Also: any recommendations for my Barricade Policy template? I wonder whether it might make more sense to create a single template instead, with the level as the first parameter; I also need to create a "DesiredDWO" version, too. And if it then seems adequate, it could be moved to the template namespace, couldn't it? Although this Wiki seems to use special users, too -- why the separation? --Lariat2301 23:10, 23 May 2009 (BST)
