General Discussion
A/A
I've been using the A/A link (and A/VB etc etc) for the best part of 6 months and i only just realised that A/A = AA. Not surprising considering the lowlifes we get around these parts...--xoxo 13:44, 22 May 2008 (BST)
How to start a case
How would one start an arbitration case against another group of wiki users? I will name specific names if required. This will be myself (NOT the DHPD) vs every proclaimed member of the dead. Its time for this to stop. Of course, it'll take an arbitrator not affiliated with the dead or sensitive to their martyr mentality but I'm convinced someone out there can handle a case like this. --ShowcaseTalk 17:05, 9 April 2008 (BST)
- dear god. No. --People's Commissar Hagnat [cloned] [mod] 18:28, 9 April 2008 (BST)
- If you're talking about starting a case against the dead or those Something Awful guys, I realy wouldn't bother, theyve made it fairly clear that they don't trust the arbitration thing, and don't want it on more than one occasion, so they'd do their best not to have one. It's not a unique veiwpoint, there's plenty of other users who don't trust it either, and the SA lot do seem kinda paranoid that everybody is out to get them. Even if you did somehow get them to agree, finding an arbitrator would be another problem, I can't see many people wanting to touch the case.--SeventythreeTalk 18:29, 9 April 2008 (BST)
- And what would be your objective? Because if you want an arbitration case about how the content on a single page or subject should be shaped you only the specific editors you have the conflict with should be involved. But if it's about an general editing restriction there would be little chance it would be honerated as it would be clearly against the good faith rule. If so, forget about it. It would be nothing more then dramawhoring.-- Vista +1 18:36, 9 April 2008 (BST)
- Good Faith rule? This group isn't the least bit worried about good faith? since day one they have done nothing but create bad faith. Is there no recourse? --ShowcaseTalk 20:51, 9 April 2008 (BST)
- The group exist of out of a couple of hundred individuals at least. And you want us to target them all for the actions of what, five users? on this wiki. How fair. Nope, we'll subject them to the same rules as everybody else. And those rules assume individual responsibility, not group responsibility.-- Vista +1 17:44, 10 April 2008 (BST)
- Good Faith rule? This group isn't the least bit worried about good faith? since day one they have done nothing but create bad faith. Is there no recourse? --ShowcaseTalk 20:51, 9 April 2008 (BST)
- Also, good luck finding an arbitrator willing to take the case. -- . . <== DDR Approved Editor 18:44, 9 April 2008 (BST)
- I'll do it. I'll arbitrate if both parties want me. -- Cheese 21:02, 9 April 2008 (BST)
- meh. I appreciate the offer but I've decided not to bother. Ultimately, I don't think anything I do will result in what really should be done with these jokesters. On the SA forums, if we went there with total asshatery that included spamming and trolling, we would be permabanned in just a few days. Why they expect to be allowed to run rampant here is beyond me. --ShowcaseTalk 23:19, 9 April 2008 (BST)

Arbitration
What do Arbitrators do exactly? I'm interested in volenteering but I'd like to know a bit more about what they do. -- Krazy Monkey W! 21:20, 11 June 2006 (BST)
- When a few people have a problem that they can't agree to a solution on, they take it to Arbitrition. There, an arbitrator is agreed on you handle the situation. The Arbitrator looks at both sides of the issue, and tries to find a solution. There are many different styles of doing this. --SirensT RR 21:23, 11 June 2006 (BST)
An index?
Anyone else think it would be worthwhile having an index of precedents from previous arbitration cases? Researching what past arbitrators have ruled is kind of time-consuming at the moment, and that's with only four archives to go through. Just a thought. -- Atticus Rex mfu pif Δ 21:36, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
- If you want to make a page called UDWiki:Administration/Arbitration/Precedents and do just that, feel free. But don't expect people to do it for you. – Nubis 21:38, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
- Hell, we should do it for every Admin page. --User:Axe27/Sig 22:37, 18 November 2007 (UTC)

- I'm willing to tackle it, but the layout is gonna take some thought so it's comprehensive without getting so bogged down that people can't easily find what they're looking for. Dunno why Nubis thinks I'm just showing up here to place orders... maybe he just doesn't know me. :D -- Atticus Rex mfu pif Δ 01:00, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

This probably would be useful to have so that people can see what the reasoning was that people applied to similar cases in the past. Of course, precedents shouldn't be binding - arbitration is a pretty easy system to game, you just need two friends willing to pretend to be "neutral arbiter" and "the other party". --Toejam 13:01, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
Archive
The first archive seems to be missing content.--Karekmaps?! 10:58, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
- Strangely, the code is visible with View Source. --Toejam 18:28, 1 December 2007 (UTC)
- This has happened with my first talk page archive too. It's really weird... --People's Commissar Hagnat [cloned] [mod] 17:12, 28 January 2008 (UTC)
Arbitration Revamp
As any blind who follow Recent Changes can see, i have made some changes in the Arbitration system, filing each arbitration case on a page for itself. Not only i edited our current arbitration cases to this new system, but i also changed some of the recent cases found in the 4th archive. I did that in a free time i managed to enjoy here in my work, but now i need to do some stuff and attend a meeting, and that will keep me really busy for the rest of the day, therefore unable to carry on with the revamp. If anyone with some free time could finish this, it's a really easy task... and if anyone has A LOT OF free time, it would be great if anyone could read the cases archived and write a summary about them. Not only this will help us easily understand what the case was about, but allow us to gather precedent in the future. And if anyone has any suggestions for this new system, Be Bold! and work on it. Cheers. --People's Commissar Hagnat [cloned] [mod] 17:12, 28 January 2008 (UTC)
- ok, so i managed to get more free time and completed the 4th archive. --People's Commissar Hagnat [cloned] [mod] 18:39, 28 January 2008 (UTC)
The Archive, Again
The old Archive links now all redirect to Category:Arbitration Cases so as to preserve all links through them in the most practical way. Some links may not work due to small arbitrary changes done while the system was crossed over, such as UDWiki:Administration/Arbitration/Archive#Sonny_Corleone_vs._Rosicrux, which no longer works(at the time of this comment, It'll be fixed probably before anyone reads this) due to a period not included in the new archive. Whenever any such errors are found please, feel free to fix them.--Karekmaps?! 20:26, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
- Oh, forgot to mention, you can find a link using the old style system for every arbitration case here, please do not edit that page though.--Karekmaps?! 20:28, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
sound of silence
anyone else notice how much quieter it got around here since the change in formats? we went from one case everyother week to 4 cases that havent been updated since early february. wow. good job guys!--'BPTmz 07:31, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
- To be fair 3 of those cases are closed.--Karekmaps?! 10:26, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

General Manners and Whatnot
Guys, please stop spamming cases with your arguments with the people who want arbitration before an arbiter is accepted, it's rude and unneeded. Stop trying to pressure people into choosing an arbiter unless you are an interested party in the case, it's, frankly, none of your business and you should stay out of it. If you're volunteering to arbitrate just say once that you volunteer and leave the page alone until they decide unless one of the invested parties in the case specifically ask you a question. It's spam, it makes matters worse, and it makes it harder to tell who has and hasn't volunteered and been declined/accepted.--Karekmaps?! 05:47, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
- Why don't you just ship their comments off to the talk page and make a quick table to list the arbitrators that have voluntered (as well as who has been accepted/declined)? Sure it's more work but at least it stays semi-readable. But you are right that people should pull their heads in. - Jedaz - 23:17/24/03/2008
Removal of arbitrator list
This is an idea i had a long time ago, and every time i drop in this page it pops in my head. Why not remove the list of users offering to arbitrate ? It's usually outdated, with inactive users being listed there for aeons before they get removed. Since we have moved to a system where it's stated that ANYONE can offer to arbitrate, it really serves no purpose. --People's Commissar Hagnat [cloned] [mod] 15:16, 23 May 2008 (BST)
- I second that... --Honestmistake 19:28, 23 May 2008 (BST)
- We should vote in people... otherwise the list should be removed. -- AHLGTG THE END IS NIGH! 19:34, 23 May 2008 (BST)
It's done. --People's Commissar Hagnat [cloned] [mod] 20:42, 23 May 2008 (BST)
- It's undone. I don't think it should be removed, just maintained to some degree, remove people who are inactive. And 5 hours is hardly time for something like this, especially considering I wasn't on in those 5 hours and I'm sure numerous other people who might have an opinion weren't either.--Karekmaps?! 21:54, 23 May 2008 (BST)
- You do not need to be on the list to be an arbitrator so why have the list? The de-facto system is that someone posts a reason for their desire to enter arbies and interested/neutral parties who feel they have time volunteer to fill the role. The list does nothing useful at all!--Honestmistake 01:41, 24 May 2008 (BST)
- To give people options that are prevolunteered so they have a pool bigger than the three to ten people that have been following their dispute and stick their hand up. Having my name on that lists means that if someone wants me as an arbitrator all they have to do is ask and I will do it, unless I say otherwise, I'd expect the same of anyone else who adds themselves to that list, as that is it's purpose.--Karekmaps?! 01:44, 24 May 2008 (BST)

Personally I think that the list should stay and addendum added to the top that says Anyone can actually be an arbiter in a dispute, however the following individuals have volunteered to give of their time to be a listed arbiter. Note: not all of the individuals listed here may be currently active on the wiki.Conndrakamod TTBA CFT 01:52, 24 May 2008 (BST) Oh Wait... It already says that. Hmmmm Conndrakamod TTBA CFT 01:54, 24 May 2008 (BST)
It should be there, people need a vague idea of who is potentially interested and if its gone theres gonna be a lot more offering to arby going on. I agree with whoever suggested the timestamp idea, and any user who wants to remain on the list has to come back at least once a month and update their timestamp.--xoxo 04:01, 24 May 2008 (BST)
- Or we could simply use such timestamp to warn people of when the table was updated. Check every user in the table, if he hasn't made an edit in a month, his name gets removed from it, and the timestamp is updated for the day this check was made. --People's Commissar Hagnat [cloned] [mod] 15:47, 24 May 2008 (BST)
- OK I finally got round to adding my name, thing is though... if I feel that its a case I could be fair on and have a good enough understanding of and have the time to give it the due attention I just throw my name into the hat. The table just seems kind of redundant to me!--Honestmistake 15:56, 24 May 2008 (BST)
Tried something to help check the contributions of the users listed there... fucking ugly, reverted it. --People's Commissar Hagnat [cloned] [mod] 16:14, 24 May 2008 (BST)
- Not that bad, except for the superscript. -- AHLGTG THE END IS NIGH! 16:30, 24 May 2008 (BST)
- Hm, ok i guess, still its a step, do people think that no contributions in a month warrents removal from the list? --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 17:27, 24 May 2008 (BST)
- I think two months is more realistic. I'm sure that many people on the list are lurking and make edits occasionally. 2 months in my opinoin is probably the best range. Has anyone actually checked the recent contributions of the users on this list? Are we sure that this is needed at all? I had a quick look at a few of the lesser known users and they seem to be fairly active. - Jedaz - 00:31/30/05/2008
- Hmm... well I went and done the list, only 6 out of 46 are inactive using my 2 month rule. I don't think thats too bad. Heres the list. I might as well remove those who haven't been around for a long while. - Jedaz - 01:37/30/05/2008
- Hm, ok i guess, still its a step, do people think that no contributions in a month warrents removal from the list? --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 17:27, 24 May 2008 (BST)

The Grimch versus Conndraka
Or, better know as: Grim just can't let shit go. 2.0.--User:Axe27/Sig 05:27, 29 May 2008 (BST)
- How about it be called "I dont want to be bound by a perpetual absurd ruling that could get my arse banned for a day years after i have forgotten it". I damn near violated it today before i remembered, which is why i brought the case. Adding this on top of the shit Conn hass been doing lately and theres the case. A little advice: Events make more sense when you use your brain to process them. This is something you should have learned long ago, but apparently the education system isnt what it once was. --The Grimch U! E! WAT! 06:12, 29 May 2008 (BST)
- I assume the page in question is my user page. That's why I have the little warning at the top. The thing is, the ruling basically prevents you from posting on my pages or articles I create in an unofficial manner. Why does that really need to be reversed? Is there that big of a need for you to post on my user page, my group, or my journal? --Akule Maker of fine, hand-crafted UDWiki sass since 2006 -- Akule School's back in session™ 20:55, 29 May 2008 (BST)

Discussion of Arbitration Cases
Cyberbob240 vs. 2 Cool
This circlejerk association group have plastered their template on a number of pages which, although they have been created or worked on by 2 Cool members, are in the public namespace and/or cover topics which are group-neutral. For them to leave their (completely ugly no less) template on these pages is borderline spam, and completely inappropriate.
The page list:
- Guide:Colloquialisms
- Guide:Colloquialisms/Suburb_Nicknames
- Great_Fire_of_1912
- The_Arkham_Sisters
- Sir_Dick_Longman
- Beer_Schools_Alliance
- Malton_Electric
The goal of this case? To have the template removed from the above pages and to have the group barred from placing it in inappropriate places in future. --HAHAHA DISREGARD THAT, I SUCK COCKS 06:29, 11 October 2008 (BST)
- How can you circlejerk with only two people?--xoxo 06:30, 11 October 2008 (BST)

- Can you link to that case? --HAHAHA DISREGARD THAT, I SUCK COCKS 06:37, 11 October 2008 (BST)
- It wasn't so much an arbies case but an [SA vs DHPD flame war] on the DH talk page. A few sysops stepped in and did agree that the DMZ category on every thing was excessive.* It's hard (but amusing) to get to the meat of the issue through the bitching, but TL;DR version is that DHPD had the DMZ tag on things not in DH, the sysops said that wasn't "fair" and that no other group was allowed to do that (the Dead had members banned when they made the City of the Dead category), the tags were removed and I think a page about the DMZ was added under DH space and brief mentions of it were allowed on certain pages. I really do try to "move on" from SA vs DH drama. --– Nubis NWO 06:50, 11 October 2008 (BST)

- I'm sorry but i don't understand what you want. Not only do those pages directly relate to alim (they were created as offshoots of it) but they are now housed as subpages. What is your concern? --xoxo 06:55, 11 October 2008 (BST)
- The fact that I'm almost certain that you're lying about more than one of those pages having been created as part of ALiM. --HAHAHA DISREGARD THAT, I SUCK COCKS 06:58, 11 October 2008 (BST)
- You started an arbies case because your "almost certain" about something? Wow. No all of these were created by Jed and nick to enhance ALiM, I'm ACTUALLY certain about that.--CyberRead240 07:00, 11 October 2008 (BST)
- No, my being "almost certain" was irrelevant until the pages were moved to the ALiM namespace. --HAHAHA DISREGARD THAT, I SUCK COCKS 07:01, 11 October 2008 (BST)
- Well that's fucking A bob, but they were all created by Nick and I. I'll do a timeline for you. August 07 - 2 Cool created, October 07 - ALiM created, the months between then and now - all those small side projects created. Comprendé? Some of them have been edited by mulitple people, some by just Nick and/or I. The point is all the basic ideas for the pages come from 2 Cool and the team over at ALiM, and further almost all those pages are integrally related to ALiM and a number of it's locations. Hence the navbar and hence they are now subpages there.

- The fact that I'm almost certain that you're lying about more than one of those pages having been created as part of ALiM. --HAHAHA DISREGARD THAT, I SUCK COCKS 06:58, 11 October 2008 (BST)
I have no clue where to respond to any of this, but since my concern is trying to head off arbies (until we can get it fixed) then I will reply here. When I suggested moving the pages to subpages I meant future ones. The problem now is that ALiM effectively "owns" these "historical " pages. I swear the Great Fire one has been around for a while... Bob, what do you want as an outcome for this? I don't quite see where you are going with this. Help me out.--– Nubis NWO 07:04, 11 October 2008 (BST)
- The ones they actually created can stay where they are. The ones they didn't (Great Fire probably being the only one in this category actually) need to be moved back where they belong. --HAHAHA DISREGARD THAT, I SUCK COCKS 07:07, 11 October 2008 (BST)
- Nubis, I can assure you, these were all created by Nick and Jed. I don't know if they were intended to tie them in with ALiM at the time of their creation, but eventually they all did, and they all flourished from there.--CyberRead240 07:05, 11 October 2008 (BST)

- It's your word against that of people who have no real emotional involvement in this case (I actually don't, believe it or not; as far as my personal emotions go I couldn't care less about the outcome of this case) without any hard proof either way. If you can't produce any of said proof I suggest you cram it and nominate acceptable arbitrators. --HAHAHA DISREGARD THAT, I SUCK COCKS 07:12, 11 October 2008 (BST)
- I did find the deletions case here. From April at least. Can we do this: can we move back the great fire one (since it seems to honestly be the oldest and most linked) and come up with a smaller more focused nav template for it? Then in future you can make the other pages in your space and have whatever template you want.
- The main reason I ask for this considerable compromise from the ALiM guys on the Great Fire is because it is a great portal into ALiM since almost any page in Malton can link to the Great Fire. If you compromise and put that one back with a more "neutral" template/links you may get more vistors to your project because of it.--– Nubis NWO 07:19, 11 October 2008 (BST)
- I... suppose I would be willing to compromise on that front as long as the new template was strictly neutral. --HAHAHA DISREGARD THAT, I SUCK COCKS 07:21, 11 October 2008 (BST)

- Personally, I hope that 2cool don't "compromise". They created the page for their own lulz and fostered it into its current existance. They shouldn't have to compromise with anyone.--CyberRead240 07:26, 11 October 2008 (BST)

- It's simple - if they didn't move the pages to their name space then they were spamming the ALiM stuff (see DMZ). By moving the pages they can have whatever they want on it, however, if they start spamming links to the pages elsewhere then we will have an issue. --– Nubis NWO 07:34, 11 October 2008 (BST)

- I'm not even sure how it go to this but it is totally irrelevant at any rate. We moved those pages to subpages of ALiM because bob was concerned that we were spamming the alim template on non alim stuff. By moving them there and then explaining the number of ways the pages were related to alim this should no longer be an issue. While no one can definatively prove who created the great fire page (sigh, thanks kev) i suggest you ask wan, boxy, karek etc who have all been involved with 2 Cool stuff and might remember it. I'm not sure who you think i would lie about this...--xoxo 07:24, 11 October 2008 (BST)

- Talk:Amusing Locations in Malton/Great Fire of 1912 - that is direct copy pasted from the old talk, check the histories there if you don't beleive it. It clear shows Nallan as the first editor of that page and also other users referring to us when editing the page. While i can't prove we created the page i can show you that we were seen even back in Feb and Apr as the operators of the page. My compromise extends as far as making the template substantially less intrusive and moving the pages to be alim subpages, i'm halfway through achieving these goals.--xoxo 07:28, 11 October 2008 (BST)

- I don't know what ire is, and i'm not too sure i care about how much i attract. Neither am i all that concerned with whether or not people feel it is group orientated, the navbar has been there long enough and during that time the page has more of less function as an ALiM subpage. Not to mention that almost all the redirects come from ALiM locations that ALiM editors have added in. Thus traffic to the page comes mainly through ALiM stuff, and the cycle of life continues.--xoxo 07:41, 11 October 2008 (BST)

Current Situation
You moved a page from the main space via a redirect to your space. It wasn't a group page, but rather an article. That could be seen as vandalism. The core issue is this: if a page is in the main space but a part of the ALiM it can't be spammed with that large template. Period. Since we can't prove exact ownership of the page and the fact that it was in the main space for so long it's very questionable that you choose now to move it. This will all go away by putting the Great Fire back with a more neutral template. Not saying you need to get rid of the template completely or move the others back, but that is the one page causing most of the problems. It's because it seems to be the oldest and most known. The main issue has only been over the size and placement of the nav template. (that's what caught my attention before all of this started, by the way) --– Nubis NWO 07:58, 11 October 2008 (BST)

- The nav template will change, see my talk page. Also, please wait for people who were around at the early days of the Great Fire and can testify that it was 2 Cool created. We have already said we created it, and quite frankly considering we have been fully honest regarding this entire case, you should have no reason to doubt that. Putting the great fire back would be splitting up the various ALiM related fictional story pages when clearly they should all be grouped together.--xoxo 08:01, 11 October 2008 (BST)

- Have you taken him home to meet mum yet, bob?
- Nubis, you can't prove ownership. You are right, but mostly all the signs point towards Jed and Nick creating this page. There is more evidence pointing to that than anything else. Either, you leave it alone and let Jed and Nick do whatever they want with their page, or you ask them nicely to try out your method of spicing up the page. You tell them you like their literary talents, and you find the page very convincing, you compliment them on their job well done, and you try your best to change their opinion on what they should do. It is their page, you should be asking them nicely, not telling them what to do.--CyberRead240 08:08, 11 October 2008 (BST)
- Where am I telling them what to do? I've been asking for a compromise all along. I've told them what the situation looks like from the outside. And I did tell them the page is rather well known and would be a great portal/ad for their project. But thank you for your timely advice, Mike.
- (edit conflicted from before) Thank you for seeing to the nav concerns. I understand your side in regards to keeping your ALiM stories together, but let's be honest. This is a wiki. It's a matter of a link on a page.
- About witnesses, if you can find actual links in their contribs or something that substantial that would be great, otherwise it is just one person's word against anothers, you know?

Inexpert Great Fire Testimony
The great fire stuff (Created by J3D and Nick) Was created before february. IT was referred to a lot around the arkham sisters debate. The causes section of the article was created by me, much later. Before that it was just a line about a big fire, and the section referring to amusing locations being targetted. thanks --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 10:41, 11 October 2008 (BST)
- Yeah, I'm pretty sure they did create the page to fit in with their Arkham Sisters nonsense. Does that mean they own it? No. If you create community pages, you give them to the community to share and interlace with the whole Urban Dead, community created, backstory. Trying to make it an ALiM subpage is ridiculous -- boxy talk • i 10:55 11 October 2008 (BST)

- Can you not see what a mess this would make of the wiki if everyone who created backstory and guide pages started putting their own advertising templates on them, and claiming them as their own? And anyway, you guys are always trying to claim that ALiM itself is a "community project", rather than your own group page that you can do what you like with. I remember the whining that I didn't join in on the "community voting" on it's talk page, when I arced up about that edible locations in malton stuff. Make up your minds, do you want a group page, or a community page. If they're community pages, to be interlaced with locations, suburb and backstory pages, then stop with all the cross-promotional advertising bullshit... if they're your own group pages, then keep them off the community areas of the wiki -- boxy talk • i 11:45 11 October 2008 (BST)
- This is a good example. This was created by Nick (in the last 2 months) under community space, but clearly on something ALiM related. So, now are you guys going to pull this to your space (please don't), why wasn't it made in your space originally? Why doesn't this have the template? Pages like this do make your case for keeping The Great Fire and the other ALiM pages in your space a bit weak. I don't really care what the final outcome is, I just want some consistency. Either all pages are under your space or they are public. (oh and I want categories on these pages, but that's just me).--– Nubis NWO 13:00, 11 October 2008 (BST)

- Wat? Great Fire was way before Arkham Sisters. It should be an ALiM subpage, or directly related somehow, as they compliment each other perfectly.--CyberRead240 11:04, 11 October 2008 (BST)
Jed and I have discussed and we have decided that we will allow for the Great Fire page to be moved into the mainspace, BUT it must keep the template on it, which we will be working on to make less intrusive - but it will retain links to the other projects - bar the featured locations, which will be removed - and also retaining the link to the 2 Cool group page, thereby crediting us with the concept. We feel this is fair, as it has always been on the page, we created the page, and because it links with the other projects.--Nallan (Talk) 12:40, 11 October 2008 (BST)
I'm not going to bother reading everything before it because tl;dr. There are community pages but there are also group pages. If someone came and fucked with DORIS' New Baghdad page I'd flip a shit. If someone fucked with Red Rum's Siege of Jerusalem page they'd be pissed. If someone messed with the DHPD's DMZ page they'd be pissed. My point? The Great Fire is a group sponsored page. --Sonny Corleone DORIS MSD pr0n 22:43, 11 October 2008 (BST)
- Those are radically different situations. --HAHAHA DISREGARD THAT, I SUCK COCKS 22:52, 11 October 2008 (BST)
- Ok. The RRF history pages for the 4 central suburbs. If anyone changed those dramatically the RRF (lolwut) would be mad. --Sonny Corleone DORIS MSD pr0n 22:54, 11 October 2008 (BST)
- Still a different situation. The Great Fire page spent a long time not obviously (to the uninformed observer) part of ALiM. This would be a complete non-issue had 2 Cool pulled their fingers out and moved it before, but as it stands the page shouldn't be in their actual groupspace. By all means link to their space, however. --HAHAHA DISREGARD THAT, I SUCK COCKS 23:07, 11 October 2008 (BST)
- I think the giant, ugly navbar that's been at the top of the page since before I can remember sort of gives away the fact that it's part of ALiM.--Nallan (Talk) 23:39, 11 October 2008 (BST)

How about everyone involved posts a random number between 0-9. We add up all the numbers and then use the sum as a UD ID number. Whoever owns that character has to be the arbitraitor. That seems fair and balanced. Let's post our numbers alphabetically. (I mean post them in order by user names alphabetically, not eight, four, five, nine etc.) --– Nubis NWO 17:21, 6 July 2008 (BST)

Cheeseman vs. Kooks
He blatantly stole my sheep. Then Pked me. Twice. Then proceeded to mount my sheep in an inappropriate manner. This happened Friday and despite several attempts to ask him to return the sheep both in-game and via other means, he refuses to acknowledge that the event took place!! But it did and I want vengenence. Coz I have a Witness in the form of Darth Dude, who saw the whole thing and definitely not was on IRC with me about 15 minutes ago listening to my plan to incriminate kooks and helping me falsify evidence because this: [1] is real. Really. And this is not fake at all and in no way is a dig at the case below this one. At all. This is a 100% genuine problem that can only be solved by Arbitration and who gives a toss if its an in-game issue and if sheep aren't in the game, this is real. I will take any Arbitrator except kooks or Grim. Thank you. -- Cheeseman W!RandomTalk 23:22, 19 January 2008 (UTC)

Need Arbitration
Im not exactly sure where to do this but this is the talk page and It was suggested I get one. Anyways Yesterday I mad an edit on the Ackland Mall news annnouncing M-BEK declares war on AMS. M-BEK and AMS has had 2 wars beforehand and we're looking for another one just as fun. However out of nowehere a /zom/ member posted I was killed by a zombie and said I was buthurt or something like that. I really didnt care too much cause he had his own opinion. HWOEVER someone called RedPuppy delted all my coments and posted up a bunch of bullcrap claiming our group is attacking Crimson clan, /zom/, and insuted my chronicle I posted up. I dont know who the guy was but I undid his comments. He kept redoing them and then I tried just to delete the whole thing but that didnt work out for him. He was redoing everything and was attempting to troll our group when it has NOTHING to do with them. Its obivously some disgruntled survivor who hates PKers. Anyways im seeking for the whole thing just do be deleted if he cant get over it.--Doctor Oberman MBEK 19:42, 4 August 2008 (BST)
