- Cheers.

Still don't have any idea on a team. Will you enlighten us?--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 18:15, 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

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) --

- 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)
- 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)

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)
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)
