This means real English, not the bastardised forms from the colonies. 3. You will not be a moron. Seriously, you're supposed to be a human being, act like it here please. 4. You will sign your posts in the conventional manner, this means with your own signature and with a datestamp. Templated signatures may be used without restriction provided they do not negatively impact the operation of this page. 5. Using the "+" button is not a good idea.

These rules apply without exception to any page in my userspace, that's any page that begins User:Iscariot or User talk:Iscariot. This means you shouldn't go hunting for other pages to just be annoying. Major Polish I'm a bit too close to this to really see the glaring logical areas, want to lead me through them, much like a confused and drunken child? --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 11:05, 20 September 2009 (BST) Logical errors wise, I see two major ones: "More importantly no zombie or hostile groups are listed. " followed by "Get a rivalry going" The notion that the wiki is accurate when it comes to group placement and effectiveness. I guarantee that the DEM are still listed in at least 10 suburbs they don't have anyone in. The big problem though is it's lack of style, there's nothing there, no character. Grim's guide and my rantings work because of their unadulterated loathing for people who do differently, and people have a platform then to engage it from, this guide has no soul, with no soul there's nothing to make a connection to a newbie searching this vast resource for help. It becomes forgettable. I can see what you're saying because I've been playing for years, your facts are sound, I know this, you know this, but without any explanation as to why it becomes just as valid as Brainguard's Fort strategy to newbies. -- . . <== DDR Approved Editor 19:59, 20 September 2009 (BST) Frankly thats two good points. The DEM aren't as bad as they were, and when I challenged the MFD, (By far the worst offender) I did manage to take them off 20 or so suburbs. I'll change both those points. As for style, you're right. Lookng back it shows that I wrote it in 3 big chunks and It doesn't flow. I'm just wondering If its possible to inject character in a way other than anger? As I'm here which 80's programme are you referencing with your sig? The one with the remake or the one with the hoff? --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 20:52, 20 September 2009 (BST) Style's a funny thing. NMH worked as it was written in one sitting as an outpouring at the banality of that SOS page, HTABRG (sig link) was written over several months and is more vanilla, think about how you want your guide to approach the user and from that dictate the tone and language of the piece. I style most of my stuff after The Prophet Hicks or 2, generally because that's how I write and argue in general, it doesn't mean aggression is the only method of structuring a guide. Find another work, whether guide, novel or even a review that you want your guide to be like and then from there see how it could be done in a vanilla manner, an aggressive manner etc. From there you should be able to isolate what you like about it and apply it. I still think you need to increasing its size through explanations to qualify your remarks, I think it will end up three times bigger if done right. As for the TV show, I like the millennial remake: I like my toasters with blonde hair and legs that go all the way up.... The quote in the mouse-over text is from Leoben. -- . . <== DDR Approved Editor 21:07, 20 September 2009 (BST) The Demon of Razgriz Is this a character? If so, do you know who's user namespace it should be under? --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 09:02, 16 September 2009 (BST) Yeah, it's a character, I'll go on the forum later and find the owner for you. -- . . <== DDR Approved Editor 13:09, 16 September 2009 (BST) PD Invite me you bum so I have somewhere to stick this comment that's sitting in my clipboard. Cyberbob  Talk  18:13, 15 September 2009 (BST) Signature Your signature must have at leased one character linking to your userpage. Users have been made to change their signatures before if the signature is nothing but redirect-images. --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 04:38, 15 September 2009 (BST) Group Removal I should've consulted them, yes, but I was, and still am, sure that the Philosophe Knights are a PKer group, and therefore shouldn't be in the survivor section of a group template for a suburb. I also should've moved it from Survivor to Hostile, but there again I made a mistake. --RahrahCome join the #party!09:00, 13 September 2009 (BST) You shouldn't be moving them full stop. The Philosophe Knights have defended that mansion for years and been more survivor than most in the area. Elsewhere they might be considered hostile, at home they're survivor. -- . . <== DDR Approved Editor 09:08, 13 September 2009 (BST) I'm busy atm And thus give you permission to rep 2 Cool inc in the current arbies case, should you still desire to.--xoxo 01:26, 13 September 2009 (BST) Bob says I'm not allowed. -- . . <== DDR Approved Editor 07:45, 13 September 2009 (BST) Unfortunately it's not bob's decision. Offers on the table if you want it, and i can choose anyone to rep me i want.--xoxo 05:43, 14 September 2009 (BST) To save them complaining, and have them continue to accuse my return as being anything other than a constructive new start, perhaps it would be easier for me to counsel you in this case off the wiki radar. Do you have perhaps an email address where I could send my thoughts? -- . . <== DDR Approved Editor 11:25, 14 September 2009 (BST) You are changing the core of the case and we have to accept that before the case continues. Even my argument took me a whole of 40 minutes (and if it weren't 1 in the morning it would have been done quicker), you can't dedicate half an hour of your time to write up an argument? On a wiki? In the name of 2 Cool? You've changed. --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 06:07, 14 September 2009 (BST) You say that like it's a bad thing. For example, I can post here now :). Linkthewindow  Talk  11:39, 15 September 2009 (BST) Appreciation Thread I did miss you. Welcome back. --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 15:54, 12 September 2009 (BST) I was told by someone who frequents here that there was a major upheaval in the sysop system and a major drama job, thought I'd come help out (that's fix it, not add to it). Given I have five misconduct cases ready to go in my old guise, I'd appreciate the credit when I don't swarm the various pages with these and vandalism cases. New policy is needed as well as clarification of precedent, hopefully I'll be making a start shortly. -- . . <== DDR Approved Editor 15:59, 12 September 2009 (BST) ^_^ --Haliman - Talk 15:56, 12 September 2009 (BST) There may well be a new "Thou shalt not edit conflict me" rule going up :p -- . . <== DDR Approved Editor 15:59, 12 September 2009 (BST) Well, I guess welcome back? I hope you make a fresh start. I'm not sure if I missed you, but I do miss the ability to edit sections on this page.--Thadeous Oakley 16:00, 12 September 2009 (BST)
