Tumbleweed Ranch

If people start editing on the same page just after I did, I'm checking it. Force of habit. Even admins... Jspoel Speech Jspoel 18:25, March 6, 2014 (UTC)

I knew that. Things are good over here, thanks. Jspoel Speech Jspoel 18:31, March 6, 2014 (UTC)

Request for recommendation

I would like you, User:Tocinoman and User:Skire to take a look at a recent edit made by ToCxHawK on his user page. It seems that after another user was banned from chat (and later site-blocked), ToCxHawK posted a quote of that user's comment, the one the other user was banned for, on his user page (which he later removed). Frankly, to me, posting that comment in any form, quoting someone else or not, is very disturbing, and I feel a violation of policy meriting administrative action. I understand that we are required to assume good faith, so I asked him on his talk page to explain the reasoning behind posting the offensive quoted comment. His reply to me can be summed up as "I found it hilarious". I, personally, can find no humor at all in someone saying what the quoted user said. His explanation, to me, does not show he posted the objectionable content in error or any other way that can be termed "good faith". It appears to me that he either agrees with the sentiment, or, more probably, that he enjoys the offensive comment so much that he choose to re-post it as a quote on his user page.

If it were left up to me, he would be blocked for this edit. But understanding that I am one of the main targets of the comment he quoted, I am not comfortable doing that. I would prefer that you three examine this and return a recommendation to me for action. Please, in concert with the others, examine this and let me know of your decision, whatever that may be, as soon as you find possible. The Gunny  UserGunny chevrons 01:11, March 8, 2014 (UTC)

Thank you guys for getting back to me quickly. Before I act on your recommendation and remove his rights for 2 weeks, there's one question I feel needs to be asked: The incident in question does not involve his use of rights. It's a user conduct issue from my perspective. I would appreciate it if you could detail your rationale of using administrative conduct discipline (removal of rights) over user conduct discipline (site block). I suspect it's his position as moderator, but my question to that would be: What would your recommendation be if the user in question held no extra rights and why is that different in this case? I want to apply our policies as fairly as possible. The Gunny  UserGunny chevrons 18:50, March 8, 2014 (UTC)
Thank you for the recommendation. It will be implemented immediately. The Gunny  UserGunny chevrons 03:54, March 9, 2014 (UTC)

Edit on Metro Central

Hey TwoBears, you changed my edit on Metro Central. I knew someone would, I just kind of wanted to draw attention to the fact that the layout description mentions only three dead female talons when there are four. I posted about it on the talk page. If you could comment on the talk or edit the page to fix this I'd appreciate it. 71.171.112.31 18:58, March 19, 2014 (UTC)

Bot

  • Category to run: [[:Category:Forum archives]]

  • Pages in category to exclude: Category:Archived Wiki proposals and applications, Category:Archived Policies and guidelines discussion board and Category:Archived Wiki discussion

That should just about do it. Thanks,  The Gunny  UserGunny chevrons 02:54, March 21, 2014 (UTC)

I went ahead and reconfigured AWB to run here and did the edits. Find/replace worked enough to do it. The Gunny  UserGunny chevrons 02:41, March 22, 2014 (UTC)
No worries. I needed to get that thing set up for here anyways. Now I just need a bot account. The Gunny  UserGunny chevrons 16:06, March 22, 2014 (UTC)

Happy birthday!

Hope you have a good one. --Skire (talk) 23:11, March 28, 2014 (UTC)

Sorry

Sorry, Ryan. I hit ban right after Paladin kick that guy and it banned you. You're unbanned, I hope the ban undid properly. The Gunny  UserGunny chevrons 02:19, March 31, 2014 (UTC)

Legionary Assassin>Bugs

My apologies. I didn't realize it was overdue. However, on the rewording part, Legionary Assassins always travel in packs, so noting that was a little redundant.Foxi Hooves (talk) 04:36, April 7, 2014 (UTC)

Chat .js/.css

Hey Ryan. I totally and blatantly copied your chat javascript and css just to see what it did, and it didn't do anything. I think I know what it's supposed to do, but I'm curious as to what you're trying. Is it to sort the users into usergroups in the chat list? Sorry for being annoying :P FollowersApocalypseLogo A Follower  Talk  04:46, April 7, 2014 (UTC)
