User talk:Serpent King/Archive 5

Just saying
You of all people really shouldn't be forgetting to remove the redirect in archiving, I mean you have the ability to not leave a redirect as you move. Ganonmew, The Festive Evil Clone  20:46, 28 November 2015 (EST)
 * I didn't forget to... Serpent  SKSig.png  King   20:48, 28 November 2015 (EST)
 * Welp, I didn't know what you meant by "I always forget that" and forgot to look at the edit itself. Instead, I looked at the move and saw you didn't leave a redirect. Sorry... Ganonmew,  The Festive Evil Clone  20:53, 28 November 2015 (EST)

Since you seem to be one of the most respected users here...
How am I doing on Smashwiki? 98.157.202.185 17:04, 29 November 2015 (EST)
 * Pretty great, I'd say. You should consider making an account though. Serpent  SKSig.png  King   17:28, 29 November 2015 (EST)

Two questions:
First of all, how good and/or efficient would you consider me as a user?

Second, can I upload another version of 's smasher pic? The other one is pretty outdated. --BeepYou (talk) 15:08, 30 November 2015 (EST)
 * 1) I haven't really seen you around very much, so it's difficult to make a good call, but from what I've seen, you are doing just fine. Overall a very helpful user. 2) Yes, definitely. What's that one from anyway? Serpent  SKSig.png  King   15:20, 30 November 2015 (EST)


 * I took a break from the wiki, lol. This one is the image I want to upload from GimR. I don't know where does the other come from. --BeepYou (talk) 15:43, 30 November 2015 (EST)
 * That will work! Serpent  SKSig.png  King   15:43, 30 November 2015 (EST)

The IP you just blocked
IIRC, from last time I read it, you violated BLOCK by infinitely banning an IP. I don't even think a long ban would've been that good since IPs change over time. Ganonmew, The Festive Evil Clone  21:08, 1 December 2015 (EST)
 * He had quickly changed it, so...I'd say he knows. Disaster Flare  Disaster Flare signature image.png  (talk)  21:08, 1 December 2015 (EST)
 * Just a message for anyone reading this in the future: I changed the block before this message. Serpent  SKSig.png  King   21:10, 1 December 2015 (EST)
 * GAH, SORRY Ganonmew,  The Festive Evil Clone  21:29, 1 December 2015 (EST)

The changed length was still way too long for a one-time vandal IP. 3 days is pretty standard for IP vandals, and you shouldn't go longer than a week for a IP outside of a significant repeat offender or other such severe circumstances. Omega  Tyrant   21:39, 1 December 2015 (EST)
 * K noted. Thanks. Serpent  SKSig.png  King   21:40, 1 December 2015 (EST)

The IPs
I have reason to believe they're the same. Disaster Flare   (talk)  23:07, 3 December 2015 (EST)
 * I got it. Serpent  SKSig.png  King   23:11, 3 December 2015 (EST)

Wazzup
I added a userbox that says you're my friend on my userpage :]

If you want, you can add mine too. Find it here. --BeepYou (talk) 17:54, 4 December 2015 (EST)


 * Eh... ah... bump? I also used ur friend template. --BeepYouSignature.png  Happy Holidays from BeepYou :]  04:39, 23 December 2015 (EST)
 * Oh hey sorry about that. Truth is, I got so wrapped up in my work load that it ended up slipping my mind. I apologize. Serpent  SKSig.png  King   04:41, 23 December 2015 (EST)
 * That's ok buddy. At least you could add it. --BeepYouSignature.png  Happy Holidays from BeepYou :]  04:53, 23 December 2015 (EST)

uh
Please excuse a buddy of mine. I kept trying to tell him no (I even told him about the very knowledgeable DatNuttyKid's failure) and he didn't listen. I'll keep him under control. Ganonmew, The Festive Evil Clone  21:47, 4 December 2015 (EST)
 * I'll assume good faith like always, although your friend is getting a bad reputation. Serpent  SKSig.png  King   21:50, 4 December 2015 (EST)
 * He is, admittedly. Also rollback will consume our souls... Ganonmew,  The Festive Evil Clone  21:52, 4 December 2015 (EST)

Continuation from User_talk:Miles of SmashWiki
Ok so here's the deal. BeepYou, you've gone about this in entirely the wrong way. 1) It was wrong to accuse nightgengale of violating 1RV. I see no evidence of this, just two different reverts of two different edits on . 2) If an editing dispute happens, take it to the talk page, do not continue edit warring (I found this edit summary to be completely inappropriate, by the way). Serpent   King   23:23, 4 December 2015 (EST)


 * I guess I didn't have to be that severe on my edit summary, so I'll stop accusing him. But that doesn't mean Nightgengale shouldn't let other people help him edit. Also, it is since November 14 Nightgengale has reverted the edits of Zelda. And he did it again on November 20, November 27 and December 1. I'm letting December 4 pass since it's not that important. That makes it four times he reverted it so it looks like the same version. Unless I'm indeed viewing 1RV the wrong way, I think that could be a violation.


 * And I was not warring. I still assume good faith. --BeepYou (talk) 23:59, 4 December 2015 (EST)
 * Oh ok. It didn't have the undo message so I ignored those. Alright, let me know if the issue escalates and I'll deal with it from there. Serpent  SKSig.png  King   00:23, 5 December 2015 (EST)


 * Alright. Although after "erroneously accusing him", I think he'll calm down. Again, sorry for being severe. Still friends? --BeepYou (talk) 00:28, 5 December 2015 (EST)
 * Sure thing. Serpent  SKSig.png  King   00:29, 5 December 2015 (EST)
 * Thank you for mediating Serpent King. I've had some bad experiences with moderators at other websites, and fully expected to be double teamed and threatened with a ban. But I was pleasantly surprised. I don't mind talking it out. ;)Nightgengale (talk) 22:21, 5 December 2015 (EST)
 * I believe in a fair approach that leaves all parties happy at the end. You are quite welcome. Serpent  SKSig.png  King   22:40, 5 December 2015 (EST)

Yo.
I wanna vote on the SA, but due to my probation, (Yes, I succumbed.) I cannot vote due to probation restricting me from forum namespace. However, this is where things get odd. It is not the forum namespace that I managed to get probation from. It was the user namespace. INoMed  (Talk •  Contribs)  05:19, 6 December 2015 (EST)
 * Probation prevents both forum and userspace edits. Serpent  SKSig.png  King   05:20, 6 December 2015 (EST)
 * IK it prevents editing from both namespaces yes, but aside from being unable to vote in round 238, I'm really not that bothered by being probated. [[file:INoMedssig.png|20px]] INoMed   (Talk •  Contribs)  05:21, 6 December 2015 (EST)
 * I can probably lift probation temporarily in order for you to vote. Serpent  SKSig.png  King   05:24, 6 December 2015 (EST)
 * I'll be on the forum namespace. [[file:INoMedssig.png|20px]] INoMed   (Talk •  Contribs)  05:29, 6 December 2015 (EST)
 * You csn now pop the probation back onto me. [[file:INoMedssig.png|20px]] INoMed   (Talk •  Contribs)  05:34, 6 December 2015 (EST)
 * NBM. Anyways, thanks. [[file:INoMedssig.png|20px]] INoMed   (Talk •  Contribs)  05:36, 6 December 2015 (EST)

No problem. Serpent   King   05:41, 6 December 2015 (EST)

Sandbox permission
I know you're busy with the templates in Melee and all that stuff, but can I have my own sandbox? For testing my own wikitext? --  '''The 70's called. They said BeepYou was here :v'''  01:45, 8 December 2015 (EST)
 * Yeah sure, you don't have to ask permission for that. Serpent  SKSig.png  King   01:46, 8 December 2015 (EST)
 * Alright, thanks. --BeepYouSignature.png  The 70's called. They said BeepYou was here :v  01:48, 8 December 2015 (EST)

Well, I tried my best... ^_^
I'd like you to take a look at this and see: what's missing? How could I improve. And most importantly, can I put it on her page? --  '''The 70's called. They said BeepYou was here :v'''  01:52, 8 December 2015 (EST)
 * I appreciate your help but honestly, I haven't gotten that far and I don't know myself how it's going to work. Serpent  SKSig.png  King   01:58, 8 December 2015 (EST)
 * Ok. If you really feel the need of using what I did, you could borrow it from my sandbox. And if you do, then you let me know when can I clean my sandbox. The only thing I couldn't add properly was the side note about her alternate quotes when she beats Pit or Dark Pit. --BeepYouSignature.png  The 70's called. They said <font color="Black">BeepYou <font color="Black">was here :v  02:02, 8 December 2015 (EST)
 * Well if you want you could help with Melee. It's a slow process. Serpent  SKSig.png  King   02:03, 8 December 2015 (EST)
 * I'll do what I can, 'cause I'm feeling a bit drowsy... --BeepYouSignature.png <font color="Black"> The 70's called. They said <font color="Black">BeepYou <font color="Black">was here :v  02:07, 8 December 2015 (EST)

Shorthand for "Japanese"
I advise "JP" to avoid a term that's got some nasty history. I'm assuming you didn't intend it as such, but I thought I'd say something now as opposed to later. Miles ( talk)  04:53, 15 December 2015 (EST)
 * For Crowd? No, no insult/derogation intended. Serpent  SKSig.png  King   05:02, 15 December 2015 (EST)
 * Or if you mean the file I just uploaded, I was just being consistent with the already existing files. I can move them if needed though. Serpent  SKSig.png  King   05:04, 15 December 2015 (EST)

Complete thought?
Okay I've read over the sentence I added to Geno five times. What is it missing? ---Preceding unsigned comment added by SANTY  CLAWS ! Or maybe DatNuttyKid. 18:11, 15 December 2015 (EST)
 * Nothing, sorry. Serpent  SKSig.png  King   18:12, 15 December 2015 (EST)
 * Lol okay ---Preceding unsigned comment added by SANTY  CLAWS ! Or maybe DatNuttyKid.  18:13, 15 December 2015 (EST)

Idk if this would be appropriate usage of this but
Could you send out one of those top-of-the-screen messages reminding everyone to use male pronouns for Robin and Corrin, and that there's no colon in Fire Emblem Fates? ---Preceding unsigned comment added by SANTY  CLAWS ! Or maybe DatNuttyKid. 17:17, 18 December 2015 (EST)
 * Err...unless it becomes a huge issue, I don't see where it's necessary. Serpent  SKSig.png  King   19:04, 18 December 2015 (EST)

Yo.
I found the Japanese crowd cheers for Smash 4. I'll be on IRC. Disaster Flare   (talk)  22:05, 18 December 2015 (EST)

Redirecting a page.
I know you've been here longer than I have, so I'm pretty sure you know (or someone else) knows how to redirect a page. For example: if you go to Shulk's page and click on "Neutral special", it will show a page telling you about the move. But, if you click on "Default", it will show the same page as the "Neutral special" page and it says at the top "Redirected from Shulk (SSB4)/Neutral special/Default". I would click on the Move button at the top but I don't want to accidentally mess something up. Thanks in advance. HawkSoulBacon, your one true love :) (talk) 13:16, 23 December 2015 (EST)
 * Why does the page need moved, and are you interested in moving the redirect (Shulk (SSB4)/Neutral special/Default) or the target Shulk (SSB4)/Neutral special? Both are not a good idea is it would mess with our moveset table linking. Serpent  SKSig.png  King   19:24, 23 December 2015 (EST)
 * I don't think he wants to move either. I think he wants to make a page redirect to another one and was using Shulk's move pages as an example.
 * If the page you want to redirect it to doesn't already exist, you can just hit the move button. But if both pages already exist, just replace the content of the page you want to redirect with " #REDIRECT insert target here ". ---Preceding unsigned comment added by SANTY  CLAWS ! Or maybe DatNuttyKid.  19:42, 23 December 2015 (EST)
 * Oh I see, ok. There is also an button on the "advance" tab of the editing window that looks like a sheet of paper with an arrow. Clicking that will automatically insert the code you need. Serpent  SKSig.png  King   19:48, 23 December 2015 (EST)
 * wait, seriously? Huh. Never knew that. ---Preceding unsigned comment added by SANTY  CLAWS ! Or maybe DatNuttyKid.  19:57, 23 December 2015 (EST)

The animation
What is it called when a character is holding an edge and then a platform appears under them and then they go to their idle stance? KirbysCrazyAppetite (talk) 21:20, 23 December 2015 (EST)
 * I'm not really sure. As far as I know, there is no actual animation for that, you'd just get the landing animation then idle. Serpent  SKSig.png  King   21:34, 23 December 2015 (EST)

Oh, well i was playing on Dream Land 3DS with Kirby and we were at the Float Islands section with the cargo ship. When the stage transitioned, i was holding an edge and a platform appeared under me, Kirby just let go of the edge and that was it. No landing animation or anything. KirbysCrazyAppetite (talk) 21:50, 23 December 2015 (EST)

Merry Christmas!! :)
But... there's this user that is adding a "notable player" of hers, but has no results to back it up.

 * Well, I'm too late again, so I'm not even going to bother. Anyway, I had a question. This template reads "Tournament results" if this category's icon is hovered over. Out of curiosity, wouldn't it make more sense if it read "Tournament results needed", like these two? It's probably the most trifling detail in the entire wiki, but I figured I could bring it up anyway. <font color="Brown">Drill Blaster <font color="Pink">Mark <font color="Silver">2 <font color="Purple">(talk)  06:14, 27 December 2015 (EST)

Zelda/Lucas pages for SSB4
I changed Lucas page. When it comes down to it, he has been notably nerfed from Brawl. All of his smash attacks (But down smash) deals less knockback, his aerials no longer autocancel from a short hop and deal less damage, PSI magnet is much worse overall, Grabs were buffed, but still has a worse pummel, and the shieldstun is at best a mixed bag for Lucas. He no longer has access to his advanced techniques from Brawl either. I've been playing close attention to Lucas since release, and his results are lacking, and the consensus is that he was nerfed as his options are overall worse. Maybe he could be considered buffed relative to the cast, but even that is doubtful. Have you seen this video? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lKbLqoXfEns

I've left Zelda alone, but I plan on getting a consensus and changing it soon. As things are, Zelda is considered to be one of the worst characters if not the worst, by casuals and competitive players alike. She has no results, and barebones representation. Losing Sheik has notably crippled her, with the Phantom failing to compensate for this loss. Some in the community disagree, but popularity won't make a bad character good. So i'll give it more time, but saying Zelda was nerfed seems appropriate. Even on her discussion page, most seem to think that she has been nerfed. http://www.ssbwiki.com/Talk:Zelda_(SSB4) Have you seen this video? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CkDlXJ3jiKg

I'm just looking at the facts and coming to a conclusion based on them. Between their results, and the general consensus, both characters were seemingly nerfed(however slight) and the Changes from Brawl section should reflect this.

Nightgengale (talk) 14:52, 29 December 2015 (EST)
 * First off, to link to one of our pages (Talk:Zelda (SSB4)) do " Talk:Zelda (SSB4) ". Second, that's fine as long as you can provide proof and get a consensus. Serpent  SKSig.png  King   19:43, 30 December 2015 (EST)

Redirecting a page
Hello, could you tell me how I can get a search phrase to redirect to a page. I think one has to make a new page, right? Thanks, Ethan7 (talk) 16:42, 30 December 2015 (EST)

The animation does animate
It does for me. This problem has occurred for me in the past; go to the page in question, and hit refresh in your browser. that should do it. Sir Glazington (talk) 01:12, 31 December 2015 (EST)
 * Look at the image sizes. Yours is 94 KB, the old one is 1.69 MB. Serpent  SKSig.png  King   01:14, 31 December 2015 (EST)
 * What does that mean? If I go to the page where the image is used, and refresh, the image animates just fine. Sir Glazington (talk) 01:16, 31 December 2015 (EST)
 * That would be because I reverted it :P Serpent  SKSig.png  King   01:17, 31 December 2015 (EST)
 * Soooooo, basically, the problem is solved, one way or another? Sir Glazington (talk) 01:18, 31 December 2015 (EST)
 * Yup :D Serpent  SKSig.png  King   01:20, 31 December 2015 (EST)
 * Awesome. :D Btw, The image size changing COULD be because I re-saved it in gimp before uploading it again. but it doesn't matter anyway anymore.Sir Glazington (talk) 01:22, 31 December 2015 (EST)
 * That drastic change probably means that the animation got cut (e.g. gimp took the first frame of the anim and saved that) Serpent  SKSig.png  King   01:25, 31 December 2015 (EST)
 * Nope, I checked it in an image viewer before uploading it. But it must have ommitted SOME data... I just have no clue what. :/ Sir Glazington (talk) 01:27, 31 December 2015 (EST)

Ping
So I compared this with that. While the former file originates from Brawl, it sounds strikingly similar to the one from Melee. So, do we keep both, or tag one of them for speedy deletion? <font color="Brown">Drill Blaster <font color="Pink">Mark <font color="Silver">2 <font color="Purple">(talk)  14:55, 31 December 2015 (EST)

Pokeball/Trophy Stand thing.
Since I don't want to make an edit war, I'm asking here.

Anyway, you said that it isn't notable. So I'd like to ask, what makes it different from say, this? http://www.ssbwiki.com/SSE#Similarities_to_Kirby_Super_Star_and_other_Kirby_games

I feel like there's another example I'm forgetting about.Unowninator (talk) 23:24, 6 January 2016 (EST)
 * I just don't feel like there is a strong relationship there. Yeah, I guess the core mechanics are there...sort of...but in the end, the subspace army are not pokemon, you can't fight with them and you can't evolve them etc... Idk, even the way you get the trophy stand (just dropping from the sky as opposed to from shops/other is different. Serpent  SKSig.png  King   23:29, 6 January 2016 (EST)

Well, I'll admit that aside from the weaken to capture mechanic, you are correct. But I'm only referring the one fact. Sorry if I'm being a pest. Unowninator (talk) 23:35, 6 January 2016 (EST)
