Announcement: I'm no longer active.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==).
• 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—

Thanks. I'll look into it on my copy of FF and see if I can come up with an idea of what's up. I don't really check most of my releases in FF, since 99% of the stuff just works in it as well as Safari, but it's possible it's something I miscoded for FF or else something interacting oddly with those scripts. —Aichon— 19:45, 10 December 2010 (UTC)

Hey, Aichon. I just noticed something. [1] Take a look at the inventory. Now look through the drop-down list for dropping items. It says I have a Toolbox, but it doesn't show up in my inventory. If I disable the Item Combiner of yours, the toolbox will appear, like seen here: [2]. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ ^{#nerftemplatedsigs} 00:24, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

I have that script and I do believe it hides certain buttons like spray can and flak jacket. Stuff that wastesAP if clicked on fron your inventory. That's probably it but Aichon could tell you for sure. ~ 00:38, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

Yep, Vapor got it. It hides a few buttons that simply waste AP if clicked. It doesn't even get them all honestly, since I was lazy with implementing it, but I was just tired of having these buttons that didn't do anything and took up AP if you mis-clicked. —Aichon— 02:35, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

Could really use some help....

I'm really confused on the if then templates, and was hoping you could help me. I'm looking to use the templates to create a chunk of code that would work similarly to the random page feature, but for items underneath my user namespace. Is it possable to do with the if then templates? -Estacado^Talk 23:17, 14 December 2010 (UTC)

You have run out of Aichon Points
Aichon Points regenerate at the rate of 1 per non-douchebag move. Please come back tomorrow or when you've proven you aren't a douche.

~ 00:09, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

Is that right?
Well, you know what I heard? PISS OFF, that’s what I heard!

-Estacado^Talk 00:48, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

I lol'd. I usually call my arbitrary point system just "bonus points", but I might have to nick that from you since it's clever and obvious. —Aichon— 02:39, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

I'm having trouble understanding exactly what you're asking for (I blame it on the lack of sleep and illness...a few hours ago, I was speaking gibberish since I was so tired apparently). Anyway, if what you're trying to do is have a random page/template appear as a chunk of another page in your userspace, you might want to take a look at what Mis has done with his main user page. You can't actually do random, but you can have it vary by date and time. If you can explain to me, in detail, what a working concept would look like to the end user, I can probably give you better instructions for how to do it. —Aichon— 02:39, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

Basically, Special:Random, but for my namespace.... ie,.... click the link, and you go to a random subpage of mine. -Estacado^Talk 03:09, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

No. You can create a link that will appear random, but not a truly random one. You'd need to nest two Switches together, probably CURRENTHOUR and CURRENTMINUTE, although just the latter would probably work on its own. Then list the outcomes for each possibility, badda bing. 03:11, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

Yep, Mis is right. Basically, you don't need the if templates at all, and should instead look into the switch one. With this version of the wiki software, there's no way to do truly random stuff like that, but Mis' answer is the best one we have. —Aichon— 03:21, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

Cool,...? -Estacado^Talk 03:29, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

Possable.,,,! -- LEMON #1 03:36, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

could really use some help,,,,,,,,,,,,.............

I'm really confused on being a decent user, and was hoping you could help me. I'm looking to use the wiki to create helpful information that would work similarly to a normal website, but just for urban dead. Is it possable to do without being a shitcunt? -- LEMON #1 02:14, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

PS I'll spam you for every minute you don't respond. Then when someone tells me not to I'll relentlessly recite lines from Diana from Paul Anka. -- LEMON #1 02:15, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

Sorry, but I have a "no newb" policy on this page, and since you're trying to be polite, it's obvious you have no idea what you're doing around here. Unless you cause a scene right now, you're going to have to leave. I'm taking you to rabies, VD, and Miscondick anyway though. I have principles, after all. —Aichon— 02:44, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

-Estacado^Talk 03:15, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

Oh, but that was really f'ing funny! -Estacado^Talk 03:25, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

It wasn't, which is why you're such a pathetic person to watch. Every second you spend on here you think you're hilarious, when you're just projecting a 5 year old making a penis in the sand and laughing hysterically at it. -- LEMON #1 03:27, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

Better to be someone ignorant enough to not know any better, than someone smart enough to, and care less. At least I don't instigate. -Estacado^Talk 03:31, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

That for real? 03:33, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

Haha yeah fuck off. And of course you don't instigate. -- LEMON #1 03:35, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

Oh you're just pissed I can do shit like that, and get away with it. -Estacado^Talk 03:38, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

I can't speak for him, but I'm annoyed, not because you get away with it, but because you do it at all. —Aichon— 03:42, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

I'm bound to try it again too... shit like this inspired me the first time... -Estacado^Talk 03:45, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

It was okay. I've never been a big fan of image-based humor, however. There are some that are good, of course, but by and large, I feel that it's overused. —Aichon— 04:17, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

You know what... DDR wins... he's always screwing with me... So.. I'll pull an iscariot and just leave... -Estacado^Talk 03:46, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

You'll never have that man's class. 03:47, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

Do it if you want, if the only two options for you are a) be a pest or b) leave the wiki, I'd much rather you leave. This time, I'll be left without regret. -- LEMON #1 04:18, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

Humourous suggestions

I was going through the history of our latest n00b's talk page, and noticed that you said that the humourous suggestions edits where in archives, and shouldn't be changed. AFAIK, they may be archived, but are left open for comments/mock votes regardless. After all, it is humourous, and voting is never tallied up and closed -- boxy ^{talk • teh rulz} 09:21 20 December 2010 (BST)

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. —Aichon— 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 ;) -- boxy ^{talk • teh rulz} 23:15 20 December 2010 (BST)

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. --Ash  ^{|  T  |  яя  |} 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. —Aichon— 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! --Ash  ^{|  T  |  яя  |} 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. ~m ^T! 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. —Aichon— 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. ~m ^T! 19:50, 28 December 2010 (UTC)

No!!!!!!!

-MHSstaff 03:41, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

Lol. Like I said in the edit summary when I posted that, I'll likely be around for a few more weeks, but I didn't want to take anyone by surprise, so I'm posting it now. —Aichon— 05:33, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

You'll be sorely missed around here when you go, Aichon. I like the way you're stepping out, though. Like you're weening us all off slowly. Good luck with the degree and all and be sure to poke your head in from time-to-time and check in on us. From one Texan to another, farewell. ~ 05:56, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

I like to ease out of places most of the time since there are less questions. Plus, I don't have anything else at the moment to fill in the time I've been spending here, so that'll likely keep me coming back for a bit. If you ever find yourself in College Station, let me know so I can treat you to lunch/dinner. And who knows where I'll end up come this summer? —Aichon— 06:10, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

I have a cousin graduating at A&M this summer so I might be able to take you up on that if you'll be there. ~ 06:25, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

Well, if things go well, I'm afraid I won't be here, but we'll see. —Aichon— 07:08, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

A sad day indeed. -- Spiderzed▋ 13:49, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

Don't worry, nobody ever leaves the wiki. Just ask me. Linkthewindow  Talk  06:50, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

Yeah, same thing happens to old message boards I left years ago. I'm sure I'll be around. ;) —Aichon— 07:08, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

another post I note, I know you couldn't leave whilst people continue to make random statements on the wiki! --Rosslessness^{Want a Location Image?} 18:43, 7 January 2011 (UTC)

Almost sounds like you're trying to get rid of me. :P Anyway, I said I'd be around for another few weeks, and I meant it. While my contribs may have dropped off, I'm still lurking almost as much as ever. —Aichon— 18:48, 7 January 2011 (UTC)

Not at all, a lurking Aichon is better than users who post on everything regardless, and the feedback from ex sops is really appreciated on the various promotion bids. --Rosslessness^{Want a Location Image?} 18:56, 7 January 2011 (UTC)

How bad would a

single 54-case switch be as far as tree-hugging, terrorist-supporting wiki page magic inclusion things be? Would it kill the FA page?-MHSstaff 23:11, 19 January 2011 (UTC)

It'd actually be a 108 case switch statements (54 for current and 54 for previous), and it wouldn't be that bad. Each case would basically just have the unique portion of the link to each FA blurb, which would likely just be a few characters long, and anything that was common to the link could be put before or after the switch in the template so that it didn't have to get repeated 108 times. Shouldn't even be close to page-breaking if done right, but I'd suggest sandboxing it first to make sure anyway. —Aichon— 05:23, 20 January 2011 (UTC)
