Hi

That is all. —Aichon— 00:38, 1 October 2010 (BST)

Hi you. 00:40, 1 October 2010 (BST)

I miss you. —Aichon— 00:48, 1 October 2010 (BST)

Hugs? 00:49, 1 October 2010 (BST)

HAGZ! —Aichon— 00:51, 1 October 2010 (BST)

Get a room, you two! --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ ^{#nerftemplatedsigs} 01:03, 1 October 2010 (BST)

But this is my room. 01:11, 1 October 2010 (BST)

I think Axe just needs a hug too. Group hug? —Aichon— 01:30, 1 October 2010 (BST)

Only if you give it to my blood thirsty Mudkip as well. ;) --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ ^{#nerftemplatedsigs} 01:31, 1 October 2010 (BST)

eh gross wiki butt secks----sexualharrison ¯\()/¯ 04:05, 1 October 2010 (BST)

I came up with an Idea, but need your input

I thought it would be cool if we had a wiki User of the Month Competition. Now, this would probably have to be run by Sysops, so, I'm Asking for your input here. And dont worry, I've asked the other Sysops too.

Cheers,

RDD RITA Team

Still don't have any idea on a team. Will you enlighten us?--Yonnua Koponen ^{Talk ! Contribs} 18:15, 2 October 2010 (BST)

Oh, right. Just found your message on the talk.--Yonnua Koponen ^{Talk ! Contribs} 18:23, 2 October 2010 (BST)

Soft Warning

I know Sexualharrison was joking about us having "butt secks" the other day, but that doesn't mean it's okay to draw pictures of it and post them on the wiki. Consider this an official soft warning not to do it again. —Aichon— 07:28, 6 October 2010 (BST)

what really? i wanna see that pic now for some reason.----sexualharrison ¯\()/¯ 20:13, 7 October 2010 (BST)

It was an MS Paint drawing of a dick and a butt. 20:42, 7 October 2010 (BST)

IN. Not and --Rosslessness^{Want a Location Image?} 20:58, 7 October 2010 (BST)

Well yes but it was both of them. 21:02, 7 October 2010 (BST)

Point taken. Although not literally. --Rosslessness^{Want a Location Image?} 21:06, 7 October 2010 (BST)

It is all your fault though. 21:08, 7 October 2010 (BST)

Subst?

I should probably know this by now. And I can probably easily find out. But what does Subst: in front of a template name do? -- Rahrah is pumped that he's going to lose another Manhunt. 18:58, 7 October 2010 (BST)

It copies the code of a template directly on to page instead of making a template call. For instance, {{Eaten}} would given the actual template, but {{Subst:Eaten}} will add the folowing directly to the page:

{| style="border:solid #000000 2px;" width=400 align=center |- | rowspan=3 |[[Image:Pacman.jpg|55px]] || style="background:#000000; color:#ffffff;" width=800 align="center" | <font face="Eurostile"><font size=4>'''EATEN'''</font></font> |}

Essentially this cuts down on template calls and allows future editing to what the template gives. The point of doing it on the welcome newbie drops is to reduce the apparent 'cut and paste' look of things, as a study Jorm gave us showed that templates scare people. As an aside, fuck hotels and their stupid fucking booking forms. 19:39, 7 October 2010 (BST)

The idea of that study was to reinforce the common sense idea that a big ass slab of ready made text is rather off-putting, as opposed to a personal welcome from a human being. If you think his point was that wiki templates are scary, and subst 'fixes' that, then you've gotten the wrong idea entirely. It's about whether you feel like you're being treated like a worthless piece of meat or not. A pre-made giant wall of text-y table-y doom is crap whether you subst it or not (and probably worse when you subst it, since now they have fucking pages of table code in their edit windows) --  RoosterDragon  20:45, 7 October 2010 (BST)

No table code, just plain text. The plain text approach is in response to that study, the substing just makes it easier for me to add to it when the need arises, if I'm adding specific help based on what I've seen them doing. 20:57, 7 October 2010 (BST)

For plain text (like your style) it makes sense and I'm not against that. But your post implied you meant the disaster that is the WN template, hence the rage. --  RoosterDragon  22:15, 7 October 2010 (BST)

Oh, Christ no. The worst thing you could do is just dump a bunch of table code onto someone's talk page (especially when the code packet includes a line directly referring to its existence as just a template call that can easily be deleted). 22:18, 7 October 2010 (BST)

My topic there

Permission to play with your navbar? I think I can sinibomb the ol' 'star into place. 23:25, 7 October 2010 (BST)

I figured I could do it myself if I really wanted to, but I'm far too lazy. But it you want to do my work for me, feel free. Try to make it take up the whole box, and remove the pixel specifications on my main/talk page (the |110 and |85). Thanks in advance. As your reward, you will receive a 1/60 chance at a cookie. --VVV ^RPMBG 23:46, 7 October 2010 (BST)

Make it 2/119. 23:54, 7 October 2010 (BST)

I cannot. I can offer you fillet of soul or a giant blender swimming pool in the place of the cookie, if you'd prefer. --VVV ^RPMBG 00:01, 8 October 2010 (BST)

Fillet of soul. I hunger. 00:02, 8 October 2010 (BST)

BEWARE, IT'S FIXED 00:10, 8 October 2010 (BST)

It also caused the second row to become overly tall and the image to be smaller than the box containing it. Unless these issues are resolved, I'll be forced to give you a mere 1/120 chance for fillet of soul, as I'll be forced to revert it to it's previous state. --VVV ^RPMBG 00:20, 8 October 2010 (BST)

I noticed the sizing issues. However the image does stay stationary instead of roving around the page when anything occupies space above the bar. I tinkered a bit to minimise the difference but I'm not sure it can be perfectly aligned with any ease. :( 00:35, 8 October 2010 (BST)

Then you shall receive the 1/120 chance. Which three of these books do I own?

The Communist Manifesto

Leviathan

Mein Kampf

The Prince

Reflections on the Revolution in France

Satanic Verses

You have one guess. --VVV ^RPMBG 01:05, 8 October 2010 (BST)

Machiavelli, Rushdie and ... Hobbes? 01:19, 8 October 2010 (BST)

. You're smart to know that Reflections on the Revolution in France is ridiculously hard to find in stores, but I lack the attention span for novels. --VVV ^RPMBG 00:00, 9 October 2010 (BST)

I think I know you

Haven't been around in AGES, but I think I recognize you from the old times. Commented on a couple of my old suggestions, maybe?

Also... What happens if I click add action=edit and section=new to the url? Hmmm. How devilish do I feel right now?

Meh, not much. ~m ^T! 03:18, 8 October 2010 (BST)

I'll slap you in the chops, mister, is what happens. Pow. Right in the kisser. Beuford T Justice aside, I'll have a dredge through DS now, unless you mean you've stuff in the main system, in which case I'll get to +1ing. 03:24, 8 October 2010 (BST)

Um, I'll just pretend I undertood that last sentence and nod politely, okay? *Nods politely* ~m ^T! 01:55, 9 October 2010 (BST)

Malton Beauty Pageant

Hey Misanthropy, I remember a couple of months ago you said that you had your lecherous eyes on the Malton Beauty pageant. Well, things are starting to get organized so I was wondering if you would have an interest in being the PK judge. here's the link to the page [[1]] --Mindlessidiots 17:43, 9 October 2010 (BST)

might also be helpful. --Rosslessness^{Want a Location Image?} 21:08, 10 October 2010 (BST)

Possibry. Say, young man, you don't happen to know the exact messages given when gesturing at contact-listed bodies, do you? 21:10, 10 October 2010 (BST)

No. But give me a day. --Rosslessness^{Want a Location Image?} 21:13, 10 October 2010 (BST)

http://iamscott.net/1286741595579.html --Rosslessness^{Want a Location Image?} 21:14, 10 October 2010 (BST)

You're a saint. It's the only thing I didn't think to check. 21:15, 10 October 2010 (BST)

Luck Really. Plus having spare IP hits. (Thanks to manhunt revive points). Shout if you need any more. --Rosslessness^{Want a Location Image?} 21:16, 10 October 2010 (BST)

I have the message formula figured now. Just it's escaping me whether transmitters are gesture targets or not (I only ever gesture with Haircuts and there's never a generator left long enough to install a transmitter). 21:20, 10 October 2010 (BST)

Hmm. That may take a while. Leave it with me. Gut instinct says no. --Rosslessness^{Want a Location Image?} 21:24, 10 October 2010 (BST)

I've left it open-ended enough for now, as just "fixtures", but with generators as the example. On to ransack, then bellow, it seems. 21:27, 10 October 2010 (BST)

That abortion of a page is embarrassing to me. One of these days I'll have to fix it and finish it up with an actual style that can be applied across the board to the other pages. —Aichon— 22:10, 10 October 2010 (BST)

Feel free, I'm not doing any special layout as I'm doing these so if you fix up a style that works you should be able to apply them uniformly with ease. 22:15, 10 October 2010 (BST)

survivor judge selected

For the Survivor judge, I picked Miss Elainous. Just thought you like to know, are okay with this choice? --Mindlessidiots 02:57, 12 October 2010 (BST)

Seems fine by me. 03:01, 12 October 2010 (BST)

Cool, I sent you a PM on brainstock but it's probably a little outdated by now. --Mindlessidiots 00:03, 13 October 2010 (BST)

I'll have a read in a second. 00:06, 13 October 2010 (BST)

Marzan

I hate unused redirects. --Rosslessness^{Want a Location Image?} 20:51, 13 October 2010 (BST)

I'm in the process of using it... 20:54, 13 October 2010 (BST)

That's what Yon's mum said. --Rosslessness^{Want a Location Image?} 20:59, 13 October 2010 (BST)

She did. She told me so. 21:11, 13 October 2010 (BST)

Why are you mean to me... :( --Yonnua Koponen ^{Talk ! Contribs} 21:24, 13 October 2010 (BST)

This is what happens when you put stuff in the news template early. --Rosslessness^{Want a Location Image?} 21:25, 13 October 2010 (BST)

Yep. Every time you finish things too quickly, so does Ross. Which is why your mum has to use things herself. 21:26, 13 October 2010 (BST)

No, that was future me, who went forward to tomorrow when Thad's accepted the bid and learnt to assign an email address to his wiki account.--Yonnua Koponen ^{Talk ! Contribs} 21:26, 13 October 2010 (BST)

Hey, I'm a true gentleman, I always let others finish first. --Rosslessness^{Want a Location Image?} 21:37, 13 October 2010 (BST)

Dead Hand recruitment image

At 142KB, it's too large for Recruitment. Mind shrinking it a bit? Since I know you're on right now and can correct it, I'll leave the ad up for the moment. —Aichon— 04:19, 15 October 2010 (BST)

Ah cockballs. Yeah I'll try a jpg version instead. 04:24, 15 October 2010 (BST)

Also, a heads up that on a mac it looks like this: Image:Screen shot 2010-10-16 at 23.55.50.png and Image:Screen shot 2010-10-16 at 23.56.38.png, on firefox and safari, respectively. -- LEMON #1 14:01, 16 October 2010 (BST)

I had figured that was the desired appearance. >_> —Aichon— 17:09, 16 October 2010 (BST)

This looks amazing. I'll send over a level one consumer. --Rosslessness^{Want a Location Image?} 17:13, 16 October 2010 (BST)

This is perfect. I've only recently started a consumer (which was suppose to be a joke) who began with a knife in a PD not 4 suburbs away from East Becktown. xD --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ ^{#nerftemplatedsigs} 17:22, 16 October 2010 (BST)

Oooh, a resident evil image :). --Thadeous Oakley 17:54, 16 October 2010 (BST)

Yey recruits. And no, not remotely meant to look like that - meant to look like this. 20:02, 16 October 2010 (BST)

Oh WOW. It'd obviously be because I don't have the font. That's why with mine I made the font part of the image :( Either ways, it doesn't make extra lines on my windows machine, but the font still doesn't appear. Also, I'm coming to help. -- LEMON #1 00:57, 17 October 2010 (BST)

Now that I think about it I should probably use images and the click code. I'll do that when TXF: Fight the Future is over. 01:02, 17 October 2010 (BST)

Also anyone coming to help - Uncooked Meat is me, if anyone else is giving profiles I can get a memberlist page made. 18:29, 17 October 2010 (BST)
