Vandals

Please report vandalism here, as well as pages vandalized and a link to the contributions of the user/IP involved. I will respond as soon as possible. Miles (talk) 21:41, 12 December 2008 (UTC)

64.131.83.138. I think his ban ended, because he/she (most likely he) vandalized Fyre's page in early April. MarioGalaxyTalk 02:12, 14 December 2008 (UTC)

These redirects made by Imma Editor..., plus s/he vandalized my userpage, warrenting a ban. Friedbeef1 Ho ho ho! 13:15, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

Can I have your opinion on something? Do you think I should run for rollback? MarioGalaxy A Galaxy begins anew... 22:01, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

Your run for rollback is already long overdue in my opinion. I haven't seen a single thing you've ever done wrong for this wiki, and you're a great anti-vandal. Rollback should be a piece of cake for you. Miles (talk) 22:03, 9 December 2008 (UTC)
Well, I just think that someone (mainly any sysop, except for Fyre, being in Australia) will bring up my Edit count. Check my user talk edits, and you'll see what I mean. MarioGalaxy A Galaxy begins anew... 22:05, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

How about me?^ Masterman Happy Holidays!! 22:05, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

@MarioGalaxy: They will. But show by action that you're a devoted mainspace editor and a trustworthy anti-vandal. I realized lately I had been doing too much outside of the mainspace, hence the random editing binge.
@Masterman: I wouldn't; you haven't done much for the mainspace. Miles (talk) 22:08, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

That's wat i was thinking 2. I'm gonna edit some mainspace. Masterman Happy Holidays!! 22:09, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

Well, I really don't see what I can contribute. Here are the only liabilities I see:
  • I'm a frequent editor.
  • I'm clearly not a vandal.
  • I try and contribute as much as I can (by the way, if you watched Smashtasm, can you see the Season 2 plot? I wrote it, but it's way too long; I need it trimmed).
  • I won't act like a pendejo and go on a random vandalism spree if I fail (unlike some user that failed RfR).
  • I try to be neutral in arguments, but, in a way, I am like Guthix (I play RuneScape, don't ask).
  • I feel like I'm pretty good in conversations.
  • I can't think of anything off the top of my head at the moment.

MarioGalaxy A Galaxy begins anew... 22:14, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

Did you mean assets, not liabilities? Liabilities imply a fault :P --Shadowcrest 22:17, 9 December 2008 (UTC)
and another point, you made multiple revisions of (vandal) edits (as if that matters :D), so that could be put on your resume... Friedbeef1 Ho ho ho! 22:21, 9 December 2008 (UTC)
Yeah, sorry, Shadowcrest. Thanks for correcting me on that. That's pretty much what I meant. MarioGalaxy A Galaxy begins anew... 22:22, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

????

How did I join SmashWiki? I don't remember creating an account here!Kitty53 (talk) 04:03, 10 December 2008 (UTC)

Whoa, for a sec I thought this user meant (by the way, is this user a boy, or a girl?) he'she had no account on Wikia whatsoever (took me a few seconds to figure it out, heh). Anyway, 'sup, Miles? Do you mind helping me with something on my user page? You see, I have a new user box, bot I hate the long template. I want to use the template you use in your userboxes section, but align the box directly under my smasherbeta, with no text in between. Think you can find a way? MarioGalaxy A Galaxy begins anew... 23:01, 10 December 2008 (UTC)

I doubt it. {{UBX}} has an alignment function; {{userbox}}, which I use, does not. The only way to got a Userbox built one that far over is to use multiple ones, like Baltro did. Miles (talk) 23:03, 10 December 2008 (UTC)
Well, what about Shadowcrest's? MarioGalaxy A Galaxy begins anew... 23:04, 10 December 2008 (UTC)
There's three. Like I said, multiplicity of userboxes can push 'em to the right. Note that unless they're all the same size pictures (in height), they'll get misaligned (like ParaGoomba's). Miles (talk) 23:08, 10 December 2008 (UTC)
Eh. I might as well use a similar alignment to your rollback'r one. Now, in your opinion, compared to other users (heh), do you think my user page is long? Just curious. MarioGalaxy A Galaxy begins anew... 23:10, 10 December 2008 (UTC)
<cough>Worst offender.</cough> But seriously, yours is actually decently well organized. Miles (talk) 23:13, 10 December 2008 (UTC)
And, I quote from Charitwo, "I'm a messenger from above." Oh, and I found the format (colors are different) form one of the old versions of BNK's talk page. Anyway, thanks. MarioGalaxy A Galaxy begins anew... 23:15, 10 December 2008 (UTC)
I saw. And I'm nervous, but who wouldn't be? (Don't feel the need to respond to that.) Miles (talk) 23:17, 10 December 2008 (UTC)

Thank you, one and all, for your support towards my adminship. I am honored. Miles (talk) 03:24, 12 December 2008 (UTC)

Way to go, Miles! - GalaxiaD (Happy Holidays!) 03:35, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
Congrats. It was destined to happen, dude. Tonight I'm going to request rollback. Will I have your vote? Koopa Claus Happy Holidays 03:37, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
You'll definitely have mine. - GalaxiaD (Happy Holidays!) 03:40, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
ily Koopa Claus Happy Holidays 03:41, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
Maybe. You'll see when I vote, and not before. After all, as a sysop, I mean srs bsns. Usually. My official philosophy on the "srs bsns" topic is as follows: srs when the situation merits it, hmrs when it's not a problem. Miles (talk) 03:42, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
Congrats on your sysop position! It took a while, but we had complete faith in you! Now, it's just humorous that my life is dictated by a 15-year old... :D Friedbeef1 Ho ho ho! 21:13, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
Certainly not, we have a 13 year old sysop on GuildWiki. I'm actually one of the youngest sysops there D: --Shadowcrest 21:34, 12 December 2008 (UTC)

Congratulations

I just got back. Congratulations on your promotion to sysop, you deserve it buddy! Is Squallinoa back in charge of the Arena? --GutripperSpeak if you are worthy 05:22, 12 December 2008 (UTC)

Vandals

Though I don't think Aids a vandal, well, the username says it all. Cheezperson {talk}stuff 06:43, 12 December 2008 (UTC)

This username isn't quite bad enough to deserve a ban on that grounds. Miles (talk) 16:07, 12 December 2008 (UTC)

Prot button

Don't use it so much. The point of a wiki is so that everyone can edit basically anything; protection is not to be taken lightly, and especially not when you've got your facts wrong. --Shadowcrest 22:37, 12 December 2008 (UTC)

You make a valid point. I'm still trying to get into the habits of when to use these new tools. I'll be more careful with them. Miles (talk) 02:46, 13 December 2008 (UTC)

SA Preparation

Since I decide the fights, can I edit the SA preparation page? Squallinoa 08 (talk) 23:47, 12 December 2008 (UTC)

I suppose you of all users could. Miles (talk) 02:45, 13 December 2008 (UTC)
Just don't be one of these.

Grats

On sysopship. I think you'll make a great one. Baltro [ talk ] 16:44, 13 December 2008 (UTC)

I need a favor. I suck at finding images on a wiki, and considering you're a sysop now, you must know this place like the desktop of your comptuer. Anyways, do we have a gray SSB symbol on a white background? Size of a thumbnail? I'm wondering for my suggested image template change. Baltro [ talk ] 22:04, 13 December 2008 (UTC)
I suggest here. It's black on gray, but close enough. Miles (talk) 22:08, 13 December 2008 (UTC)
Okay, my suggested template is here. Baltro [ talk ] 22:18, 13 December 2008 (UTC)
I also changed my distracting signature (no sarcasm, I didn't really like the symbols either). Now it's like before, with a larger 'B', but smaller 'altro'. Like it? BALτʀο [ talk ]
It works well. Miles (talk) 23:11, 13 December 2008 (UTC)
Thank you. I want to give you this, too:
;D You have totally earned this user's respect and support forever.
BALτʀο [ talk ] 23:50, 13 December 2008 (UTC)

uhmuhmuhm. hi. how are you? forgive the low-case letters. I just don't feel like pressing shift (except for I, of course. i would look stupid this way.) BALτʀο [ talk ] 03:51, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

Umm... OK, I guess. I'm trying to maintain some semblance of srs bsns. Miles (talk) 03:53, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

Well, I presume you would look spr srs telling MarioGalaxy he should run for rollback. (unless 1. you already gave your opinion or 2. he already ran and was successful) BALτʀο [ talk ] 03:57, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

Already told him, he definitely should run for rollback. I imagine he'd get speedily approved, as well. Miles (talk) 04:01, 15 December 2008 (UTC)
Aha, see, there are like, a ton of people here that act so serious I asume they're sysops. And I was also wondering if I should run for rollback. ew. But that's not all that matters. I also have not fought any vandals on here. HERE. I have elsewhere. I really don't like rollback, because it seems like having it is simply for status, and few people really use it. I would think everybody would automatically have this, but then vandals would kinda defeat the purpose. Either way, what do you think? BALτʀο [ talk ] 04:05, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

Dude. NO WAY. I never even saw that before I checked the history. -feels special- Thank you. ;D BALτʀο [ talk ] 04:09, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

You're welcome. I think rollback is an odd phenomenon, but I think it's a good way to separate the devoted editors and anti-vandals from the common, casual contributors. Your edit count is, as you pointed out, unpleasantly heavy away from the mainspace, with under 150 mainspace edits. So you have yet to show yourself as one of those "devoted editors" (here, that is). I hope you keep up editing the mainspace because you seem like the type of person we could use as a trusted editor, contributor and rollback'r... eventually. Miles (talk) 04:11, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, I never really understood rollback. I do now. (I think). And I would love to be a sysop (hah, yeah right.) cause I like to handle stuff (long stories not included). And this was the first wikia I ever contributed to. I changed a thing or two on Wikipedia, I kinda vandalized (D:) Bulbapedia, but it was here that made me learn the coding. And I'm still learning. (>.<) BALτʀο [ talk ] 04:16, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

Uh, I was just wondering if you knew that about me already. (the last comment of the section) If not, I guess you do now. BALτʀο [ talk ] 04:36, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

undid revision

So you're saying that straining your eyes to make out black text on dark green writing is a good effect? THat's ridiculous. --GutripperSpeak if you are worthy 22:48, 13 December 2008 (UTC)

I was speaking more in relation to the fact that the timestamps on signatures and other things weren't being changed in color, and that it led to a list of votes in enough different colors that it was harder to read than the black on dark green. Miles (talk) 22:51, 13 December 2008 (UTC)

I changed the timestamps so they were white as well. Everythings white except the signiatures. If fits now, and I don't have to strain my eyes to read peoples comments. --GutripperSpeak if you are worthy 22:54, 13 December 2008 (UTC)

I guess it's OK now. Miles (talk) 23:00, 13 December 2008 (UTC)

thank you

Also, one of the fights I suggested; Poppant vs. Luigi, is a good idea, but I've realised that no one would ever vote for Poppant. May I delete it? --GutripperSpeak if you are worthy 23:03, 13 December 2008 (UTC)

I see you already have, and I don't completely agree, but I also don't disagree enough to complain/worry about it. Miles (talk) 23:07, 13 December 2008 (UTC)

I just took it off the queued list, i didn't remove the fight itself. Gotta go. --GutripperSpeak if you are worthy 23:08, 13 December 2008 (UTC)

Question

You know the SmashWiki:Userboxes page? Well, since there was only two official (as in have their own pages) templates, I added the SA Box template to the SmashWiki Related section. Is that alright? If it isn't, then you can revert my edit. MarioGalaxyTalk 02:06, 14 December 2008 (UTC)

Ahem? A response would suffice... MarioGalaxyTalk 02:46, 14 December 2008 (UTC)
It's fine, sorry. I'm a bit distracted (history homework - one gets used to it). Miles (talk) 02:49, 14 December 2008 (UTC)
Ahhh... History. That's fine. That more than explains it. I hate history (except gaming/video game history). I mean, it's not like I'm gonna grow up to become a historian or archaeologist someday. Anyway, thanks for the reply. MarioGalaxyTalk 02:51, 14 December 2008 (UTC)

Same here. History sux. Masterman Happy Holidays!! 02:53, 14 December 2008 (UTC)

RfRs

Even though you're a sysop, you still can't actually grant rollback. That's my job :-p. Clarinet Hawk (talk · contributions) 04:37, 14 December 2008 (UTC)

I realized after I looked for the promotion function and couldn't find it; I thought bureaucrats promoted sysops and then sysops could promote rollback'rs. I'm sorry for screwing that up so badly. I should have checked first; I just wanted to resolve the less controversial RfRs. Miles (talk) 16:06, 14 December 2008 (UTC)

Thank you
