== CHUD ==
 
Hi Aichon! I've found that using last version of UD Better HP Colorizer CHUD doesn't show up and Firefox gives a "some script it's taking too long to respond" warning. I'm sorry I am always the bearer of bad news. Regards. --[[User:Telepibe|telepibe]] 22:59, 26 March 2010 (UTC)

:Somehow I missed this comment in all of the hubbub a few days ago. Anyway, I'm glad someone's letting me know about these issues, so it's not bad news at all. I'm just sorry I haven't gotten around to responding to them in a timely manner. With chud, is it doing it in every building, or just some (particularly in ones with lots of people)? I know chud needs some work, since my version doesn't seem to function at all in Chrome...I'll have to go through and give it a hard look at some point, since it seems to have quite a few issues holding it up. Sorry about these bugs. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 02:04, 29 March 2010 (BST)
 
::You don't have to be sorry at all. I have last version of CHUD (2009-12-08) and UD Better HP Colorizer too (1.1.1). Yes, as far as I noticed, it does it in every building (inside or outside) whether there are many people or few. What's true is that if there's a lot of people the page loads terribly slow and sometimes Firefox gave me the warning I told you before (I've pretty much get rid of that warning sending UD Profile Links to the bottom of script's list, no idea why though). Hope that helps.--[[User:Telepibe|telepibe]] 16:37, 30 March 2010 (BST)

==Style up.==
 
Your pages are sexy. Im looking at revamping the [[zombie skills]] page, converting it into a hub with each page having its own page. [[User:Rosslessness/Random Rambling/Sandbox4|Here's an example]], any thoughts on styling it up? --{{User:Rosslessness/Sig}} 14:51, 16 April 2010 (BST)
<span style="font-size: 4em;">Space reserved for Style Up</span>
:Heh, well, style isn't something that comes naturally for me. I spent a few months figuring out what my pages should look like, and threw out several designs that initially seemed promising. I can recognize decent design usually, but I'm not good at producing it. Anyway, I'm responding now to let you know I'm not ignoring you, but that I want to take a bit more to think over it. Any timeline you have on this? I have one idea regarding displaying the entire hierarchy at the top of each page, but it was taking longer to make than I expected. Aside from that idea, I don't have anything new at the moment. I'd change the shade of green though, since it glares a bit. Something a bit muted would work better, I think (#cec or #aca are decent, though you could go darker to #8a8 or the like if you want). I'll look at it again and think over it a bit more later. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 05:24, 17 April 2010 (BST)
 
::Two pence here. I agree on the darker green, but I'm thinking instead of displaying the whole skill hierarchy, just the particular tree in question (Memories tree, Vigor tree, etc) would be all that is needed. {{User:Misanthropy/Sig}} 13:39, 17 April 2010 (BST)
 
:::I was going to display the tree horizontally. Or rather, display each main branch of the tree under its own column. It'd be using the same amount of vertical space as your idea, but it'd fill out the horizontal better, give better utility, and would also give them a clearer idea of where they were in the hierarchy. Anyway, it's almost 8am here...bed time! {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 13:44, 17 April 2010 (BST)

== mac ==
What IRC client do you use on mac? Also, what's the story behind the text gradient code you have as your header on this page that can only be seen on safari? It's incredible. -- {{User:DanceDanceRevolution/l}} 13:51, 16 October 2010 (BST)
:Colloquy is my preferred IRC client (I use it with the Synapse theme that it comes with). It's free and works great.
:As for the gradient, basically, both Firefox and the WebKit browsers (Safari and Chrome) support "alpha masks", which you can kinda think of as images that you can put on top of/overlay on other images or text which make different parts of the lower image transparent to different extents. For a different analogy, they're more like those slides/transparencies that you'd use with the old fashioned overhead projectors, but rather than being completely clear, you can put any image on them that you want, and when you lay it over another slide/transparency, it would block out parts of the lower image. Anyway, in addition to that, WebKit supports the ability to create gradients programmatically, which can then be used as an alpha mask. So, that's what I did. It should work in both Safari and Chrome, I believe. Firefox will eventually get the ability to do it, I'm sure. And maybe in 10-15 years IE users (assuming it's even still around) might be able to enjoy it too. :P {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 17:08, 16 October 2010 (BST)
::Oh man, that's fantastic, didn't realise it worked on Chrome too. -- {{User:DanceDanceRevolution/l}} 07:56, 18 October 2010 (BST)
:::If something works on Safari, 999 times out of 1000, it works on Chrome too, since Google used Apple's open source WebKit rendering engine as the basis for Chrome. I've run into a few things that work differently, especially since Chrome auto-updates with newer versions of WebKit whereas Safari users have to wait for Apple to push out updates, but they are almost always identical in terms of how they show things. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 09:12, 18 October 2010 (BST)
::::Sweet. Is it only text specific, or can I apply it to styles as a whole? For example, say, my current signature, could I make the background gradiented and leave the text normal? -- {{User:DanceDanceRevolution/l}} 10:53, 18 October 2010 (BST)
:::::You can use it for whatever. If you wanted to use the gradient as an input to a <code>background-color</code>, I see no reason why it wouldn't work. You could bypass the entire alpha mask too, if you just want a gradient. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 15:35, 18 October 2010 (BST)
==Yagoton Groups template==
I don't actually care about the [[Sanitarium]] being in the historical groups or not. However, all they ever did in Yagoton is that ridiculous cinema tour, back in '07. I don't deny the historical facts at all... However, they have never really been located in Yagoton nor did they been at all active in this suburb since this time (if we can call that active...). If you think they don't deserve to be placed in the historical groups then I don't really know where to place them. I have already deleted their name in the active group on the main [[Yagoton]] page before transfering them to the template. If they get removed everywhere, they'll simply get forgotten.
Not really a problem for me, mind you... But I thought it would be best that I mention it. --{{User:Eagle of fire/signature}} 05:30, 18 October 2010 (BST)
:Oh, I don't have a problem with them being outright removed. In fact, that's generally the preferred way of handling groups that didn't make a profound impact on the suburb. So, yeah, if you don't think they should be listed with Yagoton (and based on what you described, I think you're right in saying they shouldn't be), then feel free to remove them completely. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 05:35, 18 October 2010 (BST)
::Erm... Seriously? If I were to do that, I would probably erase at least half the groups. :P
::I don't think it would be a wise idea. Even though the vast majority of those groups didn't have much of a profound impact, they are still part of the history of this suburb. We simply happen to have a lot of it around... --{{User:Eagle of fire/signature}} 06:32, 18 October 2010 (BST)
:::As long as we're talking about historical groups, ehhh, it's your call, since it's a suburb you know far better than I, but if it were my call, I probably would go ahead and erase about half of them.
:::If you look around at most of the other suburbs, you won't see many or any historical groups, and that's because the bar is pretty high to be considered historical (a lot of people actually seem to support the idea that a group should be listed in [[:Category:Historical Groups]] before they can be listed in that section of the suburb listing, but that is by no means an actual rule). Yagoton definitely has a more storied history than most suburbs, as you pointed out, which I think was the reason they already had more suburb-level historical groups than probably any other suburb in the game (5, prior to your edit).
:::Even so, the usual protocol is to just delete groups that go inactive unless they made a big impact on the suburb, as I said, and if you look at other significant suburbs, such as [[Darvall Heights]], [[Ridleybank]], or [[Pitneybank]], you won't see nearly that many historical groups listed there (3, 0, and 4, respectively). That may be an indication that the bar is set too low in Yagoton now (12 groups after your edit). Plus, adding so many of them dilutes the impact of having the other ones that are definitely historical listed (e.g. Amish Liberation Front, Ghetto Cow, and Gingerbread Men, all of which attained city-wide recognition).
:::Rather than take my word or have to make a tough choice yourself, however, I might suggest that you instead merely post a list of the groups that went inactive on the talk page for the suburb and try to garner some consensus on which of them should be considered historical, using the ones that were already listed as the bar against which the new ones would be measured.
:::If we're talking about Sanitarium, however, since they are possibly still active elsewhere, they should not go in historical (that section is only for inactive groups), but if they are not in Yagoton currently, then they should not be in Hostile either. This sort of thing is pretty common on the wiki, and the proper course of action is to simply remove them. I'll probably do it tomorrow if you don't beat me to it, honestly. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 09:42, 18 October 2010 (BST)
::::If you ask me, I'd be way more prompt to remove Ghetto Cow and Gingerbread Men from the list than I would do the Sanitarium. I played all my character life in Yagoton and I never even knew they existed before they appeared on the list...
::::That's why I am reluctant to do hasty changes. They might have been present in Yagoton but I never met them. Or they might simply have been added because they did a very minor visit in the past... It is not really easy to know.
::::As for the Sanitarium: while I know that group is still active elsewhere, they definitely had an impact in the suburb a long time ago and then left. That they are still an active group or not was not really of concern to me when I added them there: I added them there because they were an historical group of '''Yagoton''' itself. The Wiki terminology is always confusing and easily wrongly interpreted. It is no wonder that there is constant edits over edits. --{{User:Eagle of fire/signature}} 16:14, 18 October 2010 (BST)
:::::Well, I could easily see re-adding them once they go inactive (or if they return, of course), but the purpose of the list is to either highlight active groups or inactive ones that made an impact. Since they fit into neither at the moment, they should be removed. I know the language is confusing, but that is what's meant by it. And, again, I'd suggest taking it to your suburb's talk page, since they'd be better judges of which to keep and dump than I would be. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 19:08, 18 October 2010 (BST)

:Nope, not unless you get demoted. Bureaucrats aren't subject to re-evaluation unless they get demoted since their election counts as a show of community support. So, for you guys, we show the next time that your seat is up for election on that template. The only "evaluations" you have to worry about are the usual 3 month cycles or a 12 month mandatory election if for some reason you didn't go up in the meantime. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 22:51, 18 October 2010 (BST)

== Sears is using zombie speak ==
I'm not sure if you all are aware of this, but sears has a zombie theme on their site that is using zombie speak straight out of Urban Dead:
http://www.sears.com/shc/s/dap_10153_12605_DAP_Zombian?adCell=W2&i_cntr=1287783933121
Seems to me that Urban Dead should get an attribution.
Are you guys aware of this? What are your thoughts? {{unsigned|Herman}}
:That's pretty awesome. And yeah, most of that is pulled straight from [[Zamgrh]], from what I could see. The only exception I saw is that they used "e" in some of the words, which isn't part of Death Rattle. As for attribution...that's up to Kevan to pursue, but I don't see who they would attribute it to, exactly, since Kevan made the game, but the players invented those words over the years. Still though, asking them to credit it and link here would be cool. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 00:13, 23 October 2010 (BST)

::::Hi,

::::It would be great If you could credit the players of Urban Dead and the incredible Zamgrh language they developed (http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php/Zamgrh).

==Color scheme recommendations for wiki page ==
Hey Aichon,
Since you seem pretty savvy with magical wiki things that magically look amazing, do you have any recommendations for [[Template:MHSMain|changing the color scheme of this?]] I've never really liked it but the few schemes I've played with a little look...I don't know...equally as dumb. We've used this one like forever and a change of pace might be a good thing. -[[User:MHSstaff|MHSstaff]] 22:54, 25 October 2010 (BST)
:Well...I'm not exactly a very artsy type of person. I'm just patient with my designs and keep tweaking until I get them where I want them. In truth, I'm really bad at coming up with stuff.
:Anyway, looking at it, what that needs is a new layout scheme more than a color scheme, I'd say, if you want it to look more like a publication. Newspapers and magazines have very distinct page layouts that make them instantly recognizable as such. Things like the use of a multi-column layout, a smaller serif font (such as Times), a bold and eye-catching header at the top, and more use of the horizontal space would go a long way. Either that, or maybe design it more like a magazine, with 3-5 pages per issue that's released, that way you don't have a super long page.
:If I were to redo it (which I briefly considered doing, before realizing that I had a lot of random thoughts and ideas and that it'd take me several hours to try out and tweak, whereas more creative person could get right on their first try), I'd probably ditch the side navigation bar and would move everything to the top, would widen the main article space out more, would try to incorporate a multi-column design for reading the articles (if feasible, which it should be with CSS3), would put a bold/high-contrast dark border around the whole thing since the majority of the interior should be white for easy reading, and would choose a stronger design for the header at the top (rely more on the RRF shade of red, perhaps, and replace it with an image of some sort, though I'd strongly advise having it be a light background with dark text, rather than the other way around, in order to preserve the appearance of a publication better).
:Not sure how useful any of this is, but there it is anyway. :P {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 00:44, 26 October 2010 (BST)
::[[Image:MHSlayout.png|450px|center]]
::Tried this in Paint (I, uh... draw out all my pages before I code them), just went for a ye olde newspaper shade of tan, though in retrospect, I'd probably go with {{C|#F9F9FA|_'''#FCFAF9'''_|#000000}} for the background. It's very slightly off-white so it gives a papery look, especially when the browser surrounds it with white to highlight the difference (see [[Samhain Slaughter 4|here]] for the visuals). The brown used there could just as easily be black. I'd also tuck a link to RRF in the "RRF's Premier Rag" bit. Also of note, I have a severe loathing for the Lorem Ipsum. {{User:Misanthropy/Sig}} 03:05, 26 October 2010 (BST)
:::Dumping the sidebar is a wonderful idea, as is the off-white. I'll try single column and multi-column and see what sticks. Thank you both. -[[User:MHSstaff|MHSstaff]] 04:34, 27 October 2010 (BST)
::::yeah, good call, the sidebar is a pretty dated setup and doesn't set a newspaper. Good luck! -- {{User:DanceDanceRevolution/l}} 07:55, 27 October 2010 (BST)
So I think I might try [[User:MHSstaff/Projects/TestingGrounds|something like this.]] Removing the side bar and going a little off-white were both really good ideas. Any suggestions as far as the archive page? If I wanted to try a double column, are there any examples on the wiki I can look at first? -[[User:MHSstaff|MHSstaff]] 03:15, 28 October 2010 (BST)
:A double column is relatively easy. You're essentially looking at a table with two tall cells. Just make your first column in a table the way you want it, then duplicate the sizing and style of it again within the table. So you'd be looking at this:
{| style="width:200px; height:300px; padding:0px;" align=center CELLPADDING=0 CELLSPACING=0
|-
| style="width:100px; border:solid 1px #000000;" align=center | One<br/>One<br/>One<br/>One<br/>One<br/>One<br/>One
| style="width:100px; border:solid 1px #000000;" align=center | Two<br/>Two<br/>Two<br/>Two<br/>Two<br/>Two<br/>Two
|-
|}
:Just copy the raw code for that and fiddle with it as you see fit, by adding the background and fixing width, etc. You can also specify borders on all sides of the cells except the inside (<nowiki>"border-top:solid 1px #000000", etc</nowiki>) so as to give it that columns-in-a-newspaper look. {{User:Misanthropy/Sig}} 03:26, 28 October 2010 (BST)
::See, that's the hard way to do it. The easier way would be to use CSS3, which allows you to do true columns (i.e. you don't have to split the text yourself in order to get it to go between columns; instead, it'll handle itself), but there are no examples on the wiki as far as I know of the CSS3 approach, nor would it work in IE in all likelihood (it'd appear as one column in IE, I think). Mis' approach works just fine. :) {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 17:42, 28 October 2010 (BST)
:::Also, I might suggest using a grayer color for the off-white, since the current one looks a bit too pink for a newspaper. Maybe something like #F9F9FA instead of #F9F9FA, since that would make it more gray with a slight blue tint, which is more in keeping with most newspapers I see. If you're going for a magazine look instead, then the background should actually be stark white, but then surrounding the entire page you would want to use a background that was some other color so that you'd get some nice contrast (I'd go with an off-white there, so that it wouldn't be too distracting)). Kinda like what I did with the green for the [[SoC]] page, except you'd have white instead of gray for the interior and probably something not quite as strong for where I used the green. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 17:54, 28 October 2010 (BST)
Dumb question time. Right now, I have a main page that uses a template to load articles based on the template input:
<nowiki>{{MHSMain2|Articleleft=Text1010left|Articleright=Text1010right}} </nowiki>
is an example. So if I wanted to do an archival page, I would have an archival main page with the correct text inputs to my template. Is it possible to have just one page, that based on the link referencing it, would send in the right information to template to load when clicking on the nav link? So rather than having a million archival main pages, I just have one with a lot of links, and each link loads the right information when you click on it. Are such things possible? Or do I really have to have a million archival main pages? -[[User:MHSstaff|MHSstaff]] 22:03, 28 October 2010 (BST)
:I think you're going to have to explain that one to me a bit slower, sorry. {{User:Misanthropy/Sig}} 22:21, 28 October 2010 (BST)
::Yeah, I'm having trouble tracking too. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 22:26, 28 October 2010 (BST)
:::Sorry. Let me explain better. One way I can do this is to have a main page for each issue I want, in which the content for let's say Issue1 is
:::<nowiki>{{MHSMain2|Articleleft=Issue1left|Articleright=Issue1right}} </nowiki>
:::and the content for Issue 2 is
:::<nowiki>{{MHSMain2|Articleleft=Issue2left|Articleright=Issue2right}} </nowiki>
:::Each issue would share the same layout, but would have different articles based on the variables. If I have 30 issues, I would need 30 separate main pages. My question is rather than have 30 separate pages, could I have just two pages:
:::*in which the first page is a list of links (one link per Issue) that link to a second page and also send in the information for the Articleleft and Articleright variables to that second page
:::*and the second page takes those variables, uses the  <nowiki>{{MHSMain2|Articleleft=Issue2left|Articleright=Issue2right}} </nowiki> code, and then displays the right content based on which link a person clicked? -[[User:MHSstaff|MHSstaff]] 22:31, 28 October 2010 (BST)
::::I'm not too sure it's possible the way you're looking it. I think the archives are going to have to be separate pages, sorry. Though this is usually where Aichon makes me look silly so don't get disappointed just yet. {{User:Misanthropy/Sig}} 22:34, 28 October 2010 (BST)
:::::Nope, you're right. Separate content needs separate pages on the wiki. There's currently no way to use the same page(s) to show different content depending on what link is clicked. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 22:39, 28 October 2010 (BST)

:Eh, as I said with the last round on A/BP, I'm already putting in less time with UD. With my A/RE coming up in a few weeks, I've been thinking seriously about whether I intend to stick it out or if I should go to A/DM preemptively since no one likes it when sysops file for demotion right after making everyone go through an A/RE. My interest with the game has been waning recently, and I find that I more or less only really enjoy it when I'm in the middle of something bigger now, such as Blackmore 404, BB3, what I was hoping the Samhain Slaughter 4 would be, etc.. The wiki still interests me, but I'm not sure how long that will last if my interest in the game keeps decreasing. This is the same trend I've noticed in myself with past interests that have kept me entertained for a year or more at a time, and even if I don't quit right now, I think it's probably safe to say that my activity will be on the decline, in general, from here on out. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 01:00, 3 November 2010 (UTC)

== Fixed UD AP Recovery Script ==
I realize it's in your Discontinued script section but I still like using it instead of the full blown Barrista script. It now supports negative AP, and for a large enough negative will display a date in addition to time. Also, I changed the time display to use the browser/system locale settings instead of the hardcoded 24-hour time. My changes are [http://sites.google.com/site/thvortex/udaprecoverytimeindicator.user.js here] if you want to update your copy of the script. {{unsigned|Thvortex}}

As I said in my nomination, you guys could expect "more of the same" from me once I was promoted, and the same should be true in reverse. I helped before I was a sysop, I helped while I was a sysop, and as long as I'm around, I'll still help after I'm a sysop.

Want to try to organize something at this convention in Dallas this spring? {{unsigned|Vapor|00:01, 28 November 2010 (UTC)}}
:Honestly? I hate to be a spoilsport, but no, not really.
:Truth be told, I just don't ''get'' cons or the idea of meet ups with other people you meet in online games. The WoW guild I was with for 2-3 years had annual meetings that brought in dozens of attendees from around the globe, but I never went. And there's even a halfway decent [http://aggiecon.tamu.edu/ local con] that I've never bothered to attend. Those sorts of things just aren't my cup of tea. I don't know if it's the fact that I only know these people online and have no interest in putting a face behind the personality or voice (i.e. I'm shallow), that I'd be embarrassed in explaining to others why I'm gone for a few days (i.e. shallow again), or that I just can't be arsed (i.e. I'm lazy, which is my current theory, since it seems to hold true elsewhere), but the simple truth of the matter is that I've just never been interested in attending these sorts of things, and I don't see that changing anytime soon.
:If someone is passing through College Station, I'd be happy to grab a meal with them and hang out for a few hours, but April is when I should be on the home stretch with my degree, so even if the desire were there to attend, the logistics wouldn't be great for me anyway. As far as organizing it goes, however, I do respect that others enjoy these sorts of things, and I do think that it'd be a great place to have it. Arlington isn't too far from DFW, and getting to Texas is a good middle-ground for both east- and west-coasters, as well as being a not-too-bad drive for people in the midwest that might want to do that. Plus, I think DFW has non-stop flights to Europe, which makes it a good spot to be at. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 03:51, 28 November 2010 (UTC)
::I'm not optomistic this convention idea will come to fruition, but if the universe aligns just so and by some miracle it goes down in DFW, I'd be sad to hear you won't make it.

==Dumb Question ==
So I am learning about tables and wiki-magic things but I think I am missing something. I am making a RRF semi-history page that shows some of the targets the horde has hit and where we have been. Its a half-parody on weather stations "Live StormTracker---Now with 3D SUPERDOPPPPPLLLLEEEER." I am calling it "ZomboTracker." For the target page, I jury-rigged Rooster's nav template so I can switch between maps of different buildings that we have nahmed nahmed over the years. Here is the [[User:MHSstaff/Projects/ZomboTrackerTemplate|'''template for that''']] and here is [[User:MHSstaff/Projects/ZomboTrackerAll|'''one of the subpages that calls it.''']].
The problem is in the template, the page space matches up with my image graphic on top (its a space holder for now, I'll probably redo it to match the theme). But in the subpage call, it does not extend all the way to the right to match up with the image; there is a lot of white space which makes me sad. Why is this and how would I fix it? -[[MHS|<span style="color: Black">'''MHS'''</span>]][[User_Talk:MHSstaff|<span style="color: DarkBlue">'''staff'''</span>]] 20:22, 28 November 2010 (UTC)
:Hope you don't mind that I edited the template. Also, you'll need to edit the hospital page to make the image 600px instead of 700px, for reasons that should be obvious when you see it, and you might want to check whether you want to use Size or ImageSize as the name of your variable, since the template calls didn't match the template code (I switched the template to Size to match the template calls).
:Anyway, the problem was that you basically had one giant cell in the table you had. That cell had a white background, and you put three elements into it: the header image, the navigation table, and the radar image table. All of the space not taken up by one of those three elements would thus be white, the background color of the cell, rather than being black, which is what caused your problem. To fix it, I first, decided it was best if the header image had its own table row, rather than merely forcing the other elements to line wrap, so I bumped it to its own row. I then originally tried to put the nav table and the radar image table in their own table cells, but that proved to be problematic for various reasons (should be possible still, but I didn't want to do it), so I ended up just dumping them in the same cell and setting that cell's background color to black. Really, that's all there was to it. I tried some other stuff to fancy it up a bit, but ended up just leaving it like that. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 21:37, 28 November 2010 (UTC)
::I see. If it is too large, it wraps to the bottom. Many thanks for all your help kind sir. -[[MHS|<span style="color: Black">'''MHS'''</span>]][[User_Talk:MHSstaff|<span style="color: DarkBlue">'''staff'''</span>]] 01:30, 29 November 2010 (UTC)
:::Also, that table was 727px for a reason (the nav table was 6.5em, which ended up being 74px, and 801-74=727). In my browser, there's now a black strip along the outside of the red border on the right side of the table. It might look different in IE though, since IE, quite possibly, ''still'' handles the display of borders completely contrary to the web standards that every other browser abides by, despite having that as a bug for the last 15 years... {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 02:23, 29 November 2010 (UTC)

::::::Try 726px.

Looks fine in Safari as well. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 02:42, 29 November 2010 (UTC)

After all, it is humourous, and voting is never tallied up and closed <small>-- <span style="text-shadow: #bbb 0.2em 0.2em 0.4em">[[User:Boxy|<span style="color: Red">boxy</span>]] <sup>[[User talk:Boxy|<span style="color: Red">talk</span>]] • [[The Rules|teh rulz]]</sup> 09:21 20 December 2010 (BST)</span></small>
:Yeah, I realized that quite a bit after the fact, and you're 100% correct. I had thought the archives weren't supposed to be edited, but yesterday or the day before when I was reviewing his edits, I realized I had made a mistake in saying that when I noticed some text somewhere saying that it was permissible to edit them. Humorous Suggestions have never been a part of the wiki that I've been especially familiar with, since I don't follow them or their proceedings, so I had assumed that they functioned somewhat similarly to the main suggestion system, where once they are done, they're done. I was going to re-review his edits at some point and see if I needed to restore them, but hadn't gotten around to it yet. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 18:16, 20 December 2010 (UTC)
::No worries. Humourous suggestions is a quiet backwater of the wiki, with no real rules, just common sense, where people just fix things up the way they want without any drama. Doesn't get much press ;) <small>-- <span style="text-shadow: #bbb 0.2em 0.2em 0.4em">[[User:Boxy|<span style="color: Red">boxy</span>]] <sup>[[User talk:Boxy|<span style="color: Red">talk</span>]] • [[The Rules|teh rulz]]</sup> 23:15 20 December 2010 (BST)</span></small>
==Hmph==
You know, I never thought you were a Knight, although in hindsight it should have really clicked a lot earlier. If not simply for the educated method of posting, then definitely for the white mask and notches in your gun. {{User:Ashley Valentine/sig}} 13:52, 24 December 2010 (UTC)
:Well, since I play all sorts of different characters, it's not surprising that people don't realize I have ones in certain groups or playing certain ways. And unless the Knights come up around here, my affiliation with them usually goes unmentioned. Besides, having secretive members is part of who we are. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 19:58, 24 December 2010 (UTC)
::I have a knack for telling which Knight is which. You may proclaim to be secretive, but I know you all like to personalize the insides of your mask. DT draws ponies on his.
::Happy hunting! {{User:Ashley Valentine/sig}} 18:20, 28 December 2010 (UTC)
==My bad==
There was no bad intention in messing with your vote, just... poor judgement. My bad, please don't take it as assholery. {{User:Monstah/Sig}} 03:45, 28 December 2010 (UTC)
:I didn't take it that way at all. I just wanted to make clear that it's not something that I wanted done to my comment and that it wasn't necessary in this case. In other places it may be necessary, but not here, thankfully. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 06:24, 28 December 2010 (UTC)
::A'ight, then. You know, we all have our fits of dumbness and assholery and all this shit from time to time, I was just making sure. {{User:Monstah/Sig}} 19:50, 28 December 2010 (UTC)
