Uhm..

We wonder if you died.. :'( User:Axiomist/sig 03:29, 2 January 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, dude. We haven't seen you for weeks. :/ User:Mandi/sig 04:48, January 2, 2010 (UTC)
Pah, sorry to disappoint, but the rumours of my demise have been greatly exaggerated ;) Although I suppose a 10 day absence might as well be forever in our crazy world of wiki ;p
P.S. Happy 2010 to all who read this! User:Adam/sig 08:54, 2 January 2010 (UTC)
He lives! Glad to have you back, man. Alter  {T C B H } 09:01, January 2, 2010 (UTC)
Quite the opposite of disappointment! We worried about you dude. User:Axiomist/sig 09:03, 2 January 2010 (UTC)
Yes, quite worried >:( But, glad you haven't...y'know...kicked the bucket.User:Mandi/sig 22:18, January 2, 2010 (UTC)

Newbie Question

Is it okay to ask for game pointers or would that be off-topic? ZoraKnight 15:12, 24 February 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]

WiKirby

Seeing how Axi is away for awhile, I'll have to direct this to you. It seems that Austin's encountering the same problem that Brent had with WiKirby: It refuses to allow him connect. I believe it's the same thing where it can't process his request as before, so I would suggest raising another support ticket with bluehost about it. Talk to Austin for more specific details about the problem, though. Hopefully, this won't become a recurring thing :/Justin(Talk) 20:04, 28 March 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Question about Monaco.css

Hey, I was wondering if you'd be able to tell me how to edit the Monaco.css so that when someone edits a page, it makes a <strike> like how it's done here. Is this something I'd be able to do or is that something Wikia is in control of? Jo the Marten(Shriek) ಠ_ಠ 16:14, 3 April 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Um, I'm not quite sure I understand what you're asking about; did you mean the "Currently editing" bar that shows up when you edit a page? User:Adam/sig 08:20, 5 April 2010 (UTC)
No, like here and how the deleted words are crossed out. Jo the Marten(Shriek) ಠ_ಠ 01:17, 6 April 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Ah, now I see what you mean. That's done using a file called diff.css (ZW's copy is found here). It's not editable via the wiki's interface (and of course viewing the file in a browser is read-only), so to customise ours I had to manually edit the file on our server. I'm guessing that only Wikia staff will have that level of access, and I'm not sure what their policy on interface customisation is, so you might have a hard time getting them to change it. I guess that's just one of the many benefits that comes with independance... User:Adam/sig 12:37, 7 April 2010 (UTC)
Aye. :/ This is rather unfortunate. I had a member come up to me saying he was color blind and couldn't see the edits. Guess I'll have to bring it up with Wikia then. Thanks for your help! Jo the Marten(Shriek) ಠ_ಠ 22:07, 7 April 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Talk Page

In my experience, talk pages belong to the users, not the administrators. In past, they have been allowed to remove garbage they don't want on their pages, just as Mandi has in the past as well. She edits and locks her page simply so she doesn't have to converse with certain people, and I'm sure there's been others. My talk page is my talk page, and I have every right to de-garbage it if I wish. And by the way, your "final warning" means nothing to me until you issue the same ruling to Nerushi. You all wanted to block me alongside that clown AuronKaizer before simply for defending all of you from him (which I was stabbed in the back for), yet you just want to slap Nerushi on the wrist and show bias toward me. So until your rulings become impartial and equivalent, your "final warning" isn't worth the energy you took to type it to me. Link87 20:14, 26 April 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Nice one by the way, you lock MY page when I didn't even remove your pointless comments. Tut Tut. I demand that it be unlocked now however, thank you very much. If not, I shall be writing to Jason about this overstepping of bounds and abuse of power. Link87 20:17, 26 April 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Forgot to say "thanks"

I saw the addition of the skipcaptcha to the patrol and autopatrol groups. I much appreciate that, because it was getting really annoying :PUser:Justin/sig 19:32, 12 May 2010 (UTC)

Editing my user page

I know that I had used userbox templates that didn't exist. I was planning on creating them sometime when I'm feeling a little less lazy, lol. I just wanted to put them there so I would remember to make them, and I'd only have to click on the links to start editing them. You didn't have to delete them from my page. Tyeforce 08:51, 28 June 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Hi there. It wasn't done with malicious intent, just part of an ongoing process of cleaning up links to stuff that doesn't exist. You see, this list was once over 1000 pages long, and once it gets to zero, we're done and the wiki is finished and we can all go home and drink beer XD
Remember kids; every time you create a red link, a fairy dies :,( User:Adam/sig 18:40, 28 June 2010 (UTC)
Oh, I didn't know that, sorry. Well, I'll make them exist so there's no problem then, lol. Tyeforce 02:46, 29 June 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I hope you're online. O_O

Our Vandal is back. I don't suppose you're online to block him or something...? =\ Embyr 75  --Talk-- 19:43, 28 June 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Just a request

Pleeeease, Can you delete my account? I wanted to improve some minor things, but now I don't like that everyone can put anything they want. And try to end the games you start.--Taligo 11:24, 29 July 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I'm not quite sure what you're asking here, or what you mean by "putting anything they want" or "ending games"? Maybe you should take a look at this which details the options about deactivating accounts; but remember, the easiest way is to simply not log into your account any more!

Regarding the C-nintendo Template

You discontinued the use of Template: C-nintendo last August, but did not recommend its removal from the image pages. Is there is a technical reason for this or were you planning on doing something with it? Regardless, I plan on fixing the summaries and descriptions of many images and this little template pops up often. Can I omit it? User:Minion/sig 03:40, 26 August 2010 (EDT)

I was never aware of any future reasons he might have for it. To me it seems like he only said that so he could eventually figure out how to get his bot to remove all of them.User:Matt/sig 17:22, August 26, 2010 (UTC)
Yeah, pretty much that. To quote myself:
It is still present on a number of images, but will display nothing. While it may be removed from images, doing so is not recommended unless there is another actual need to edit the image in question.
