Prototype Kickban message

Dear (USERNAME)

You have been banned from chat for (TIME) for breaking Rule #. Contact Myself or another admin/mod after three days have passed to have your ban lifted. In the meantime, review the guidelines.

Sincerely, -- Agent c

It would require you to manually add the username, rule broken, and duration. Not sure if you can be bothered doing that for every ban. Otherwise, if you like it, feel free to use it. 06:25, February 18, 2012 (UTC)

NUN

On a lighter note, I'm glad you started this program and I really hope it can help at least a few newer users. I'll be more than happy to sign up as a mentor when I get back home on Friday/Saturday. Only one taker though... hopefully it'll pick up soon. ^Skål! 01:59, March 21, 2012 (UTC)

Well, as long as it helps I suppose I shouldn't really complain. Just thought it was ironic is all. ^Skål! 02:08, March 21, 2012 (UTC)

A certain project.

Hello, Agent! Well, I'm writing because I heard you're the man to talk to when one needs to spread the word around about projects. I've just started the Fallout 1/2 Quotations Project (http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Fallout_Wiki:Fallout_1/2_Quotations_Project), whose purpose you may know, taking into account my specialty here at Nukapedia. The project is an attempt to improve the conceptual aspects of early Fallouts articles, and it'll make my job a lot easier and more organised. Also, in the future, I can organise a Fallout 3/New Vegas Quotations Project, who knows. I hope you can help me. Cheers,

--Crimson Frankie 05:52, March 21, 2012 (UTC)

Well, Agent, thanks for everything, first and foremost. The soundbyte is as follows.

The articles of this wiki have an outstanding amount of information. As a long-term reader, I’ve always appreciated that. One particular part of the articles that I’ve always found singular was the quotes section: remarkable sentences that conceptually define the subject the article is about, be it a character or a whole faction. They literally open the article, and they provide the readers with in-game lines that sometimes can give them goosebumps – like the ones found on Marcus’ article do with me–, and make those readers more familiar with the actual feeling of the game. Unfortunately, some notable pages lack quotes – especially from the earlier games –, and as a new editor, having already added quotes to several articles, I want to change that. The Fallout 1/2 Quotations Project aims to add those pleasant, precise quotes that may seem like a simple element, but that make Nukapedia so appreciable and complete. My intention is to improve and beautify Fallout 1 and 2 articles, but perhaps there will be another opportunity for a Quotation Project for the new games as well. That's part of my mission, and any contributor will be very welcome.

Crimson Frankie.

I hope it's okay. Since I'm not a native English speaker, there can be some mistakes or typos there. Feel free to correct them. ;-) I also hope the format is right. Cheers, mate.

New User Network

Hello there. Well, straight to it I guess, myself being fairly new still to this wiki and its workings, would love to join your newly created (and may I say great idea) New User Network. And also, if you wouldn't mind I'd love to be paired with you. I'm mostly on anywhere between 5pm and 11pm um, Ontario time? Well, yea, thanks for anything you can do for me and hope something great comes of this. --The Old World Relics 20:09, March 21, 2012 (UTC)

WPC "Soundbite"

The weapon condition project is now officially finished! Big thanks to our participants, especially The Gunny, who spearheaded much of the project. The project's goal was to include information on weapon durability for every unarmed, melee, and projectile-firing weapons in Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas. If you haven't noticed already, these weapons pages now have a special durability subsection. Enjoy! -SigmaDelta54^(Talk) 01:30, March 23, 2012 (UTC)

NUN

Sorry, can't participate in the NUN anymore. Which is a shame. But I'm gone from this place until Cartman either learns how to shut his fucking mouth and show respect to others, or he's gone from this place for good. You'll have to find a new user to pair up with Old World Relics. 11:14, March 23, 2012 (UTC)

Hey Chad, I've gotten your message about the help with editing, you asked me which game(s) I prefer and which kind of articles, well, I prefer Fallout 3 over the other ones, and about what kind of articles I might want to write, I do not really have an opinion about which kind I like the best, anything would be fine for me. I am most likely to be on the NukaPedia at 17:00 (Berlin, Paris and Amsterdam time zone) and later, to about 21:00. Thanks for the help in the future, appreciate it!

About the VTM rp.

Sessions will be held over on my wiki's chat, for convenience, and will mostly be weekends and evenings(weekdays, which coincide with your schedule) we will base off the game but it will take place in another city. I will play the part of the DM(environement, NPCs, Combat outcomes) and maybe some other minor characters. If you find other who are interested, the only requirement is 13 years of age(since there will be violent and mature content). --User:DavidTheWise33 12:42, March 23, 2012 (UTC)

Suggstion

Due to this thing with Yes-man would you like me to take on his role of mentoring old world relics/ The Australian Kiwi 22:10, March 23, 2012 (UTC)

Yeah it's started to concern me a bit this place seems to be becoming divided again. I really hope that things get sorted. The Australian Kiwi 22:17, March 23, 2012 (UTC)

A Message

Well I am truly sorry to hear about Yes-Man's argument and his subsequent departure from the Wiki, I am glad that you were able to step in as my mentor for the New User Network and informed me of everything. I really hope that Yes-Man returnees to us and along with his return some very important revelations for this Wiki. Again, thanks for the heads up and I look forward to your helping me and and hopefully Yes-Mans return. --The Old World Relics 22:55, March 23, 2012 (UTC)

I don't know what to think. Part of me wants this to be over and done with right now so I can get on with it. The other part of me is ashamed of facing the community again... I don't know why, maybe because I'm more trouble than I'm worth. Really, this place would do just fine without me. I'm feeling more and more like regardless of what I do, it's not getting through to anyone and nothing will really change. A lot of people seemed to like me better when I kept my mouth shut. And so far I'm the worst mentor the NUN has ever had the displeasure to receive. Sorry about that. 00:57, March 24, 2012 (UTC)

There's a difference between them voting no for me and them outright being rude.

“He (Cartman) was not the one to lose his composure, insult another editor nor perform a dramatic and immature drama stunt.”— Scarface

“...Pulled yet another of our wiki's patented drama stunts in "leaving until Cartman! is gone."”— Scarface again

“...and outright insulting another user like that is unacceptable.”— Oh, gee. Scarface... once again

“It smacks me as validation seeking, as if his intention were to make it so that people would beg him for him to comeback, and meet him with fanfare when he finally does.”— Limmiegirl

“It was completely appalling to see an administrator resort to what's essentially a childish tantrum and passive-aggressive emotional blackmail to get his way.”— Limmiegirl

“We can't have admins spazzing out because of a measly argument.”— Oct

“It's exactly these kinds of outbursts that everybody is fed up with YM.”— Limmie

“Stop acting like a spoilt child.”— Wow, Scar is on an insult roll

“In my eyes, that seems really, really butthurt.”— WeirdoWithCoffee, regarding my expression of emotions

A lot of these quotes are one sided. I'm feeling attacked by people I cared about. It's not nice, I tell you what. They all of a sudden think they know me and they know how I feel. They seem to ignore the fact that Cartman started insulting me first. These people who've known me for a few months think they're fucking experts on me, when really they're just saying what they see. It hurts. These are insults. I don't know why they're going on about why people are sick of me for this, because it's the only time I've ever done it. The comments don't make me wanna stay here. 01:29, March 24, 2012 (UTC)

Please note YM that all my comments were directed at your behaviour and actions, not at you or your person. So please stop taking them as direct and personal attacks. That's exactly the kind of behaviour I called immature. Limmiegirl ^{Talk! ♪} 01:35, March 24, 2012 (UTC)

I take being called a spoilt child, saying that I spaz out, implying that everyone is fed up with me, and making it out as if Cartman is completely innocent and didn't do anything to warrant my behaviour as being personal. I don't know about you, but if someone were to insult me in public then call me a spoilt child for reacting, generally I'd take offence. I can't help it if I get offended by these statements. Nor do I consider them attacks on my personality, which might I add, this is the only time I've acted up like this. So to say that they're "fed up" with me is nothing short of bullshit, or just an opportunity to say something bad about me. 01:41, March 24, 2012 (UTC)

I don't recall calling you a spoilt child. And we're fed up with the whole admin weekly drama, not just your actions specifically. Yours just happened to be the drop that made the glass overflow. Limmiegirl ^{Talk! ♪} 01:47, March 24, 2012 (UTC)

Yessie, just because I disapproved of your actions doesn't mean you're any less of a friend to me. I am just generally hard pressed as to why you got so angry over ONE user insulting you. I get my feelings hurt all the time, it happens to everyone. Cartman is one user on this wiki in a sea of other users. You're friends are there for you, and a word of advice from your friend: by acting in such a rage towards simple primitive insults will get you less respected by veterans and newbies in the like. Don't leave over such a simple thing, Yessie. Please. --    Contr        KOROMO        Talk      01:50, March 24, 2012 (UTC)

┌────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘We'll see how things turn out on April 6. Regardless of how the vote is going, I don't know if I want to stay yet. I'll think about it. But honestly, it's not easy for me that once I speak out, people don't like what I have to say. I'm not the smartest nor am I the most socially-confident person in the world. So, you know, it wasn't easy for me to articulate what I wanted to explain. And Cartman was just making it worse.
There are still many people here who I care about. But for the most part, it's seeming more and more like this isn't the kind of community I want to be a part of. It was a simple concept I wanted to incorporate. This "wiki-drama" only became a drama once Scarface decided to make a poll about removing admins. It's really not my fault that the community got involved in something between Cartman and I. 01:59, March 24, 2012 (UTC)

No YM, it became a drama when you decided to make a fuss about leaving till Cartman was gone and blocked yourself. That's what I referred to as "childish tantrum and passive-aggressive emotional blackmail". You could have handled it in a myriad of manners, including asking for moderation (which is what the guidelines suggest), but instead you chose the most childish and dramatic way possible, and that honestly made me wonder if you are fit to be and administrator. I voted for you back when you made the request because I believed you would capable of upholding your position maturely and professionally. It was big a vote of confidence that shouldn't be taken lightly. But your reaction to both the argument and the later tantrum made me disappointed and regret my decision. That doesn't reflect my personal opinion of you however, which remains the same. I can't speak for him, but I suspect it was the same with Scar. Limmiegirl ^{Talk! ♪} 02:14, March 24, 2012 (UTC)

Hope you don't mind if I had went ahead and added myself to the list. O: I'm glad to see this is gaining popularity though. Hopefully it'll be able to help those that truly need the help. ^Skål! 21:42, March 24, 2012 (UTC)

I can understand that in a ways, and it certainly is a problem that we can lend a hand towards fixing. It usually doesn't even cross my mind that a new setting can be quite intimidating since I've always been a very outgoing kind of guy. Not everyone is like me though and I'll do my best to help those types. :) ^Skål! 21:59, March 24, 2012 (UTC)

Defence

Agent, I'm sorry, but I'm not going to sit around and let people talk to me like that.
It might not help my case but I'm not going to lie down and let people say things about me which are frankly not true. I think it's apparent that this whole issue has upset me dearly. And no matter how many times I make my case, it doesn't matter. People just keep saying things that are false, like that I'm the one who started this whole wiki-drama crap. Or when they say that they still like me, yet they then follow it up with harsh comments directed at me.
I'm not good at this sort of thing. Before I got a chance to write my defence they were already saying that I had no defence and that I didn't care. Of course I care. After all the work I put into this place they just sweep me under the table over one outburst? The people who apparently cared for me didn't care enough to consult me or ask me what was wrong before leaping at the opportunity to kick me out.
People can say they lose respect for me because frankly, if they can't respect me for standing up against Cartman then I don't think I respect them. It showed me the true colours of people. The people who, the minute I started speaking up in the community, shot me down and are now pursuing it so that I never want to come back here.
I considered Scarface my best friend on this Wiki, but he's been the one who's hurt me the most. I'm not going to sit there and let them treat me like this any longer, I'm going to say what I feel needs to be said.
Oh, and real fucking convenient for Cartman that he's out "adventuring" for the past two days, and that he can't make it to his defence OR the meeting. The majority overlook his unwarranted behaviour, yet persecute me for what I consider an outburst that Cartman provoked. 23:03, March 24, 2012 (UTC)

Court documents

Allright, I go by your judgment for just uploading the first cache with the main arguments, purchasing agreements and licensing deals. Given your reaction, we should not include the second one then. Can you make it one pdf file, max. 12 MB? That's the wiki's top upload size. Jspoel 23:37, March 24, 2012 (UTC)

Just thought of it; it may be better to create 3 separate pdf files, one for the arguments, one for the purchasing agreement and one for the licensing deal. That might work better. Jspoel 23:40, March 24, 2012 (UTC)

Multiple identical links

Is the use of multiple identical links when having identical occurrences (such as XP) incorrect in this wiki? I ask so because I saw you corrected some of my edits by removing all the links but one for each "collection" of multiple identical internal links... --I7652-1028-1285362 01:54, March 25, 2012 (UTC)

I'm not sure why he removed it. I think it may have been speculative, since there's no source cited as to whether or not that road is Interstate 495 (runs right next to my house, on a side note). I think there's a road sign that provides textual confirmation though. -SigmaDelta54^(Talk) 20:22, March 25, 2012 (UTC)
