| | Gong-show? That's just cold. Cold! Anyways, what do you want me to do with your suggestion? Do you want me to make a place-holder that you will fill in later? I assume that you are in the Survivor/Zombie/DN camp but since I have seen it all on this wiki I thought it would be best to check with you directly.

| I'm going around clarifying some stuff and decided direct to user will probably be the best way for time being. <br /><br />So . . . The thing about the DEM groups listing themselves with Branch of the DEM, [[Eastonwood_Ferals#Agenda|is stuff like this]]. Listing yourself as part of something isn't uncommon, it's happened a lot with zombie groups, and survivor groups but only certain survivor groups that have done it for an extremely long amount of time have been viewed as a unified group in and of itself. [[New Malton Colossus]], [[DEM]], and [[Dulston Alliance]] all get special treatment and qualification from most users as a unified group themselves, of these three the DEM gets even further special treatment, setting itself apart from the rest of the groups in the game, by having the honor of most people not even viewing their individual parts as autonomous. I understand why that came about, I've argued for it in the past and I've told them what they could do to change that in most people's eyes. However it is extremely in-practical for us(the wiki) to treat them to a different standard than the other two groups, or for that matter any large multi-group alliance or organization that coordinates actions that involve groups temporarily relinquishing some self sovereignty. Basically at current their being held to a higher standard of proof than anyone else simply because there's some question and drama surrounding their organizational structure. It's a dispute we won't solve here, the response shouldn't be to choose a side based on personal belief and who moderates the recruitment page/made the rule in question but rather to choose [[wikipedia:Fail-safe|the answer that does the least harm]].--<small>[[User:Karek#K|Karek]]<sup><font face="Monotype Corsiva">[[User:Karek/ProjDev/OmegaMap|maps?!]]</font></sup></small>
| |
| :Thanks, Karek. Now, I really don't give a lemur's ballsack about the drama surrounding the DEM or their internal organisation... I was merely pointing out a couple of things which seemed relevant... However, your point is well taken... And I actually think it's fine for them to be all listed seperately... Personally, I think I lean towards scrapping the entire Recruitment page, period -- but that's a different subject... --[[User:WanYao|WanYao]] 22:39, 14 December 2008 (UTC)
| |
| :Ok... that was a bit disingenuous me there, what I said about not giving a shit and "merely" posting "some facts"... But you know, it does mean something, those blurbs. Being a "branch of" means something very different than is implied by "membership" or "alliance"... The term "branch" unfortunately plays right into all the negative perceptions of the DEM... However: ''meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeh...'' --[[User:WanYao|WanYao]] 22:45, 14 December 2008 (UTC)

| ==Wiki questions==
| |
| Hey, noticed you seem to handle a lot of the editing on the Dunell Hills and surrounding suburb pages, so figured it'd be best to ask you first: Where is the changing of suburb danger levels actually done? Does it show in the history? I've looked in recent history for both the suburb page itself, and the suburb danger map, but can't see where it's changed. I am a relative wiki amateur however so it might be right under my nose. Just curious as to how I'd determine who changed the suburb level if they didn't leave a note in the recent news section. Thanks --{{User:Peter McGrady/Sig}} 01:32, 22 October 2008 (BST)

| Hey as one of the wikizens around here that has a background with ALiM projects that goes back before the purge, we'd greatly appreciate if you went [[UDWiki:Administration/Arbitration#Cyberbob240_vs._2_Cool|here]] and testified. We are asking for witnesses who can confirm the fact that the page, [[Great Fire of 1912]] was indeed created by and largely moderated by myself and [[User:J3D]]. The task of claiming our creation over the page is complicated by the fact that no history is available to back up our claim due to the history purge.

| I've noticed you've been changing the status of malls to "unknown" if they haven't been updated in two weeks. What's your opinion on buildings in general, that haven't had their status changed in ages? Like, say...[[Titus_General_Hospital|this one]] or [[Nunn_Row_Fire_Station|this one]]? Also, there's [[The_Norwood_Building|some buildings]] that don't even have one of those templates - would it be worthwhile, do you think, to remove "building status" from any non-TRP/non-mobile phone mast buildings, at the very least? As those rarely, if ever get updated, and have no real reason to be updated as things stand? (Well..unless they're the headquarters of group...but those are pretty rare). And in either case...if anyone wants to report the current status of a building, there's also the "current news/current status" subheadings on the page, too. --[[User:Jen|Jen]] 03:34, 7 October 2008 (BST)

| :...is there any reason why pages such as [[User:DangerReport/The_Bornard_Building|this]] can't just be deleted from the wiki? Please? They're clutter. Occasionally-updated utterly useless CLUTTER.

| Hey, noticed you seem to handle a lot of the editing on the Dunell Hills and surrounding suburb pages, so figured it'd be best to ask you first: Where is the changing of suburb danger levels actually done? Does it show in the history? I've looked in recent history for both the suburb page itself, and the suburb danger map, but can't see where it's changed. I am a relative wiki amateur however so it might be right under my nose. Just curious as to how I'd determine who changed the suburb level if they didn't leave a note in the recent news section. Thanks --{{User:Peter McGrady/Sig}} 01:32, 22 October 2008 (BST)

| Aha! Knew it'd be somewhere obvious. Thanks for that. --{{User:Peter McGrady/Sig}} 04:53, 22 October 2008 (BST)

| ==That can't be good...==
| |
| I was gonna ask you where you been all my life, then i checked your contribs and noticed you'd only been gone 4 days...how'd you miss out on all the 2 Cool bashing that was going on? It would have been right up your alley too...--{{User:J3D/ciggy}} 06:32, 17 October 2008 (BST)

| :ah j3d, see... see how much you love me? i always said... it was only a matter of time before you saw the light... however, i'm not coming back to this "skene" in any major capacity for a long time. if ever. which means you couldbeat that 3-d repair record we share... which i have to fucking post someday, hmnnnnnnn... --[[User:WanYao|WanYao]] 06:49, 17 October 2008 (BST)

| ::You? 134? I find ''that'' difficult to believe. This skene needs you more than ever, know that we'll always have each other, you can stand under my umbrella, ella, ella. But yeah, why the ditching? --{{User:J3D/ciggy}} 11:28, 17 October 2008 (BST)

| ==Great Fire ambiguity==
| |
| Hey as one of the wikizens around here that has a background with ALiM projects that goes back before the purge, we'd greatly appreciate if you went [[UDWiki:Administration/Arbitration#Cyberbob240_vs._2_Cool|here]] and testified. We are asking for witnesses who can confirm the fact that the page, [[Great Fire of 1912]] was indeed created by and largely moderated by myself and [[User:J3D]]. The task of claiming our creation over the page is complicated by the fact that no history is available to back up our claim due to the history purge. Thanks for you time.--{{User:Nallan/sig}} 08:27, 11 October 2008 (BST)

| ==Mall FAK Rates==
| |
| Seem to be around 1/5....compile some data on it!--{{User:J3D/ciggy}} 12:48, 9 October 2008 (BST)
| |
| :something like that. shit... i decide to quit UD and all this rawking shit takes place. i should quit UD more often! :) --[[User:WanYao|WanYao]] 07:08, 10 October 2008 (BST)

| ==Building Statuses==
| |
| I've noticed you've been changing the status of malls to "unknown" if they haven't been updated in two weeks. What's your opinion on buildings in general, that haven't had their status changed in ages? Like, say...[[Titus_General_Hospital|this one]] or [[Nunn_Row_Fire_Station|this one]]? Also, there's [[The_Norwood_Building|some buildings]] that don't even have one of those templates - would it be worthwhile, do you think, to remove "building status" from any non-TRP/non-mobile phone mast buildings, at the very least? As those rarely, if ever get updated, and have no real reason to be updated as things stand? (Well..unless they're the headquarters of group...but those are pretty rare). And in either case...if anyone wants to report the current status of a building, there's also the "current news/current status" subheadings on the page, too. --[[User:Jen|Jen]] 03:34, 7 October 2008 (BST)
| |
| :...is there any reason why pages such as [[User:DangerReport/The_Bornard_Building|this]] can't just be deleted from the wiki? Please? They're clutter. Occasionally-updated utterly useless CLUTTER. Maybe that's not a reason for deleting them...but WHY THE HELL were they created in the first place???? The TRP, yeah, I can understand those. But generic buildings, with NO unique history? WHY???? --[[User:Jen|Jen]] 07:56, 7 October 2008 (BST)

| ::Some of the wiki's more betterer contributors, including those over at [[ALiM]] are trying to lolify some of the stub locations to improve the wiki for everyone. Unfortunately some people are out to stop the wiki from being a better place, see [[2 Cool]] intro paragraph for more info. Anyway they exist for whenever anyone does need to add something to one.--{{User:J3D/ciggy}} 11:24, 7 October 2008 (BST)
| |
| :::Please don't use my Talk page for this, J3D. And, Jen, the wiki is pretty piecemeal and inconsistent... And people don't even update malls regularly, NTs and other resource buildings are even worse... But, unless a number of people decide to get rid of Status Reports for non-descripts (which I support in principle, I think), it's probably just goinf to stay the way it is... --[[User:WanYao|WanYao]] 13:00, 7 October 2008 (BST)
| |
| ::::Hmm...how would one go about rallying support for getting rid of Status Reports for non-descripts? --[[User:Jen|Jen]] 22:22, 8 October 2008 (BST)
| |
| :::::Just delete them off, i doubt anyone would notice. If they did then tell 'em to update it more often, chances are they'll either oblige or let you delete. Leave NT ones though, some of them are updated from time to time.--{{User:J3D/ciggy}} 23:36, 8 October 2008 (BST)
| |
| ::::::Deleting the "status report" thing off the page would only be a superficial fix. Though not one I'm averse to making. Ideally...I'd want to get rid of all the Status Report templates for non-TRP buildings. (Hmm...if I deleted it off the page...would that then make it an unused template, and viable for deletion? *Jen plots evilly*) --[[User:Jen|Jen]] 23:45, 8 October 2008 (BST)
| |
| :::::::Now you're thinking like an evil genius! Just put the subpages all up for deletion, rally the troops (ie me and wan) to vote, then someone else has to do the work of actually going through and deleting them all. Or just do the unused template way, either works :) --{{User:J3D/ciggy}} 12:03, 9 October 2008 (BST)

| ==Dulston Editing==
| |
| First of all a big FUCK YOU. I know how the wiki is supposed to work. Unfortunately, this place is run by a lot of egocentric and pompous assholes who have turned it into a political fiasco. Yes, a simple informational website for a simple game gone to hell. Let's take...well you for instance. You deleted a few days worth of news by myself as well as another person at least. Mine of course was simply stating that Dulston Alliance was taking back buildings and would like support. What's the harm there? I wasn't stating that the zombies suck and have all died, everything is hunky dory and there is going to be a kegger with naked women. Or should I have put that? If this isn't news to that particular suburb I'm not sure what is. You deleting it then talking how it doesn't merit mention because zombies are there is completely out of line. Have you been to the burb lately? Probably not. So you don't really know shit do you? Just because you choose the PK/Zed playing style in the game (like other Moderators on here) does not me you can do whatever the fuck you want. If something doesn't look good to you...it's gone. You and you're stupid pals all bully around other users and try to humiliate them all in the name of your groups or for yourselves. Finger pointing at one person and laughing at the next. I've even witnessed the stupid "peoples court" you guys run here. Let me see...it was a DORIS member versus a Pro-survivor member...with a DORIS judge. Ummm...yeah that's like have a blind, deaf & dumb jury. You know what? This is a PUBLIC site. Fix errors, typos & stuff like that but let people have a little expressive freedom with their words & opinions. Don't just delete it because it goes against what you think/feel. Oh, and have you tried looking up rules you guys setup on here? It's an absolute cluster fuck! No organization whatsoever. So great job! Have fun on your high horse.

| Please let the others know this wiki is turning into a joke...that isn't funny. This is about a little game based on a fictional city named Malton. This is not Washington D.C.
