Announcement: I'm no longer active. My talk page is still your best bet to get in touch. —Aichon— 04:39, 15 December 2018 (UTC)

Please be aware of the following guidelines before posting here.

• New conversations should be started at the bottom using a level two header (e.g. ==Header==). Or with the +
• I like to keep conversations wherever they start, but if a conversation ends up here, I will keep it here.
• I will format comments for stylistic reasons, delete comments for whatever reason, and generally do anything else within reason.

Thanks. —Aichon—

Sorry

It’s been a very long time since I’ve edited the wiki - I’m real sorry! I’m very appreciative of anything you can fix up regarding our ad. Cheers, Jim —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Jim Extreme (talk • contribs) 20:23, 20 February 2018 (UTC).

No need to apologize, and it wasn't a problem in the least! I'm just glad I was able to catch you and that we were able to get it worked out quickly. If you have any trouble getting back into the swing of things on the wiki, feel free to poke me for anything that might come up. —Aichon— 20:34, 20 February 2018 (UTC)

Hiatus

Take care, Mr. Aichon (Acorn). --  AHLGTG THE END IS NIGH! 20:54, 10 March 2018 (UTC)

That is really terrible news. Take your time. -- Spiderzed▋ 15:44, 11 March 2018 (UTC)

Hope all is okay. A ZOMBIE ANT 01:23, 12 March 2018 (UTC)

Thanks, guys. Yeah, something happened on the 9^th and I wasn't sure what impact it would have on us, hence my use of the Sysop Hiatus template. I'm afraid it's not all okay, but we'll be okay. Life is slowly returning back to normal. —Aichon— 17:13, 21 March 2018 (UTC)

Recruitment category

Hey, glad to see you're still active. However, for some reason I missed my deadline on updating my recruitment ad. I did but now seeing what's posted I'm not sure how to paste it back up. Halp ! --Murderess (talk) 23:17, 23 April 2018 (UTC)

It's back up. For future reference, here's the diff so that you can see what needs changing. :) —Aichon— 23:53, 23 April 2018 (UTC)

Thank you !! --Murderess (talk) 00:04, 24 April 2018 (UTC)

A user after being told to knock off vandalism of a page

Ok, just saw your message. --Starlingt (talk) 10:09, 28 April 2018 (UTC)

Vandalism report

Apparently the new tactic is for them to try and change the images uploaded to the site. It's another form of vandalism given I am using the images I downloaded myself on our group page. Impotency breeds futility though. --The Jack (talk) 16:22, 28 April 2018 (UTC)

Yup, I already dealt with it. —Aichon— 16:23, 28 April 2018 (UTC)

I had quite a laugh watching this action today. One must ask himself though if following the wiki rules is worth it. I mean, I'll take trolls over zergs anyday. I'm quite disappointed. "We learned about honesty and integrity - that the truth matters, that you don't take shortcuts or play by your own set of rules... and success doesn't count unless you earn it fair and square." I think I might join The Dead now... maybe everyone with a clear mind should. You know, the solidarity thing. --Murderess (talk) 00:08, 29 April 2018 (UTC)

Sorry, I missed this in all the hubbub yesterday. Honestly, I’d love to have a policy that bans zergers from the wiki. The problem comes in writing and enforcing a fair policy. We have no means by which to check any logs in the game, nor in-game activity, nor link accounts on the wiki to in-game accounts. Without those tools, we basically have no basis for banning anyone in a fair manner unless they just out-and-out admit to zerging while on the wiki. —Aichon— 05:47, 30 April 2018 (UTC)

User:The Joke

Sorry to keep focusing on your page for this but I noticed you also did the last revert a few minutes ago. Is it me or does this person seem disproportionately obsessed? Nevermind, that's rhetorical. Looks like this one was also created right before The Reel Jack Yocum. Since he tried to repeated revert our page to one called The Joke earlier it seems obvious he was trying to hide this one for later. --The Jack (talk) 03:20, 29 April 2018 (UTC)

Quite possibly so. I’ll look into it later. —Aichon— 03:50, 29 April 2018 (UTC)

RE: Your imposter commentary

So it's said, I actually had no idea any of this even existed until it was all brought up today. It was quite a revelation. Definitely worth discussing. I've never used Discord, but maybe that's more viable? --The Jack (talk) 03:39, 30 April 2018 (UTC)

Honestly, it’s not worth discussing. It’s hard to get worked up about someone impersonating me in a game I haven’t played for over a year, and no amount of discussion is likely to effect any change in the situation. I don’t appreciate what they’re doing, but I’m not losing any sleep over it. —Aichon— 05:31, 30 April 2018 (UTC)

I understand that. Chat just seemed like a quick/easy way to clear up what I believe is some confusion on this topic. Plus, Im a slow typer, and it doesnt help that I get requests from other members to add/change something, because they want to mess with someone. In truth, having pow wow with anyone over this game seems to be taking the game a bit too serious. But since you actually took the time to post your feelings about this mess, and seem to have strong negative feelings towards my group as a whole, I just figured it was important enough to make the extra effort. I can appreciate/respect the value in one has in their creative endeavors. Anyway, I'll just say this for clarity. Personally, I dont know you at all. Ive never met you. I didnt know your characters until I read who they were. The group I play with is a bit larger, and I dont interact with all of them directly or on a regular basis. I play the game leisurely, and am interested in making actual positive contributions to the wiki outside my group. I think I can help keep the general information database up to date with regards to ingame activity. I may also choose to add to some creative stuff to the general history too. I think at this point, given the bad feelings and past drama surrounding this group, I will ask anyone else who wants to contribute to just send it to me to do. I dont anticipate alot of those requests, but we ll see. I like to go outside too sometimes. Hope you enjoyed my novel. That will be $5.95 US, but we can call it $5.00 and you can just contribute it to Kevan as a donation. :P. --The Jack (talk) 13:16, 30 April 2018 (UTC)

Well, whether it's you, someone in your group, someone trying to frame you, or someone entirely unrelated, it doesn't matter to me. I don't appreciate people trying to drag my name through the mud, but even if I was 100% sure who it was, I'd still do my darndest to treat them fairly on the wiki. As for clearing up confusion, you're welcome to say your piece so that there's a record of it, but you don't need to defend yourself to me. I stopped caring who's behind it when I quit the game. —Aichon— 16:27, 30 April 2018 (UTC)

User Creation Log

Does a new user creating an account make an entry in Checkuser? Or do you have to wait for them to edit to get their IP? A ZOMBIE ANT 04:21, 30 April 2018 (UTC)

New users show up in logs immediately, hence why I was able to take action on some of the alt accounts before they edited. I was checking each of them during that flurry of activity. —Aichon— 04:49, 30 April 2018 (UTC)

That is really convenient. A ZOMBIE ANT 04:55, 30 April 2018 (UTC)

What would be convenient is a plugin that can handle proxies automatically... :-/ —Aichon— 05:04, 30 April 2018 (UTC)

What would actually be convenient is for no zerg war to be occurring on the wiki :P Thanks for handling it so far, Aichon. stelar ^{Talk|MCM|EBD|Scourge} 11:00, 30 April 2018 (UTC)

Totally right... A ZOMBIE ANT 11:35, 30 April 2018 (UTC)
