I edited chur userpage
I fixed chur template on your page. 19:22, September 12, 2010 (UTC)
 * Sorry about how you were still editing. I was thinking that if someone showed you the template format, you would be able to be more successful with your other ones. If you need any help with anything else though, feel free to ask. 14:35, September 13, 2010 (UTC)

Mr Stelercus
Hullo, I'm Pharos, a recent changes stalker. Now, as to your questions:


 * 1) See this page for userbox help
 * 2) See this page for signature help
 * 3) Anyone can attend the wikifest by merely showing up on the day
 * 4) See this page for details on the wikifest
 * 5) How is Stelercus? He is Green, just Green, trust me
 * 6) When posting on someone's talkpage, please post your comment at the bottom, thanks

I'm just about to sleep so this is a very breif response with pages for you to look at until he gets back to answer your questions. - 13:54, September 13, 2010 (UTC)

RE:Sig Stuff
I have this handy template for those needing signature help.

As for the green question, people (mostly Pharos, he is relatively obsessed with how much green I use) on the wiki as well as in the game identify me by the colour. It's my favorite colour, so when I went to buy Runecrafter Robes, I got them in green (this being within a week of the guild coming out). At the same time, I was working on a goal of obtaining a Green h'ween mask. It was cheaper, and I found the colour more attractive than that of the other two, so the choice was easy. So, there I was with a green mask, a set of green robes, and perpetually in a state of being called "Greeny" or "Green Guy" by those who didn't care to learn my name. I was already a Guthixian (this choice being out of being in agreement with the philosophy), this being validated by my purchase of a Guthix armour set a few months previous to buying the mask. My Bedroom in reality is painted green, and the same colour represents the bulk of any object I may use where the colour varies from object to object (folders, pens, and so forth). Finally, I was given Adminship, which includes your name being given a green highlight.

I'm going to pause here to mention something new users need to know (it appears you joined yesterday, which is quite impressive for somebody with 100+ edits). Adminship does not make you "better" than other people. It just means you can delete things, block vandals/trolls, determine consensus, and other janitorial tasks. The actual name of the job coded into the website software is "Sysop", which stands for System Operator. It's not prestigious in any way, and the name highlight is just to help users pick out who the Admins are when they need to.

Back to the green thing. It was clear that I was green, so I might as well roll with it. My signature is green, my userpage is green, my custom skin for the wiki is green, and that's the way I like it. Didn't expect to get my life story, did you?

You also asked me a few other questions on my talk. I can do some stuff to your userpage and/or make you a custom signature if you want. One does not need to "join" the Wikifest, they simply need to attend. The date is still being worked out, but we are looking at early October. And I'm good, thanks. 18:55, September 13, 2010 (UTC)
 * Your userpage should have the option to get rid of the "followed pages" thing. It's just junk Wikia keeps adding to the site. I recommend you get rid of it so your page will look better. 19:32, September 13, 2010 (UTC)
 * Your page was also not put together that well. Can I have your permission to rewrite it based on what is already there? 19:38, September 13, 2010 (UTC)
 * The code on the page was an absolute disaster. It appears somebody substituted all your userboxes out for the raw text, which is much less desirable (hence why we have the templates at all). Because of this, some of the userboxes were lost as I could not figure out what all of them were. I also changed the NPC/Monster infobox to a User infobox (see Template:Infobox user). For more on templates, see RuneScape:University of Lumbridge/Lesson/Templates. Feel free to ask me if there is something about the page you want to change. 20:06, September 13, 2010 (UTC)

Hi
I noted on your userpage, you have an invitation to your gallery. I suggest using in the invitation, as it lists said user's name. 20:35, September 13, 2010 (UTC)

Game cache images
Our current stand on game cache images are that they are speculation. Please don't upload them no matter what you think it is. Thanks. 07:36, September 16, 2010 (UTC)
 * Oh, i thought they were from the game cache, being named File:3122 obj big.gif, is this from the ge page one runescape, so so, don't upload those either becuase then there's legal stuff and I believe we have an image for most items zoomed in with the Orb of oculus, so check before (as we do have a zoomed in one of impling jar). 08:19, September 16, 2010 (UTC)
 * No, no, no. Leave them, they are usually replaced eventually. just don't upload them unless an image like it does not exist. This template explains it pretty well: Template:Game Guide image. 18:59, September 16, 2010 (UTC)

Personal Image
Hello. An image or video that you have uploaded appears to be personal. Personal files should not be hosted on the RuneScape Wiki (see RS:NOT). If you want to add a picture or video of your RuneScape character, or any other media that doesn't fit in an article, you may upload it on an image hosting site, such as Photobucket or ImageShack. You can then insert it into your userpage simply by copying and pasting the URL where you want to insert it. If you have uploaded a picture of your avatar, you can instead directly link to your avatar picture by pasting http://avatar-rs.runescape.com/your character name/full.gif for full avatar and http://avatar-rs.runescape.com/your character name/chat.gif for chathead. If you need more details feel free to ask any question you have on. 19:10, September 16, 2010 (UTC)
 * It's okay. -- 20:06, September 16, 2010 (UTC)

Re:Vandal thingy
If you see a vandal, you can do three things to help. First, report them at this page, then head to their talk page and type. After this, head to their contributions page and keep reloading the page incase they make more vandal edits which you can revert by pressing 'undo' and then 'save' it like normal. Keep doing this until an admin comes past and blocks them.

And yes, it IS creepywhen I answer questions you pose to stelercus - 13:17, September 17, 2010 (UTC)

RS:CVU
Please don't just go report every edit that violates the rules. Only report people if they continue after you warn them. There is a huge chance that they were just testing, experimenting, or just didn't know the rules. Also, everyone deserves a second chance. Thanks, 14:17, September 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * I removed your warning since this needed a non-templated warning, since warn3 is for pure vandalism when this could easily be a good faith edit. Thanks, 14:26, September 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * Well, yes, but it seems more like he doesn't get why it's getting deleted. But, if he still doesn't understand, feel free to report him. 14:30, September 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I did see it and was unsure whether or not to report him. He is behaving properly now though, so I decided not to. 14:42, September 17, 2010 (UTC)

Sorry, that was my fault, I didn't make myself clear enough. I was refering to the kind of vandal that blanks pages and replaces them with insults/swears or makes edits that are definatrly vandalism. If it's possible that they accidentally made the edit, use the test2 template or direct them to the style guide. - 23:26, September 17, 2010 (UTC)

RE:Im a newb.
Ok? and it didn't trick me because i got to that page from the Recent changes not from your userpage =] 08:18, September 18, 2010 (UTC)

RE:Barnstars
Actually, User:Chicken7 created something that will ultimately function like barnstars, Wikicapes. Unless chicken becomes active again in the near future, I'm going to propose to make them official. 17:17, September 18, 2010 (UTC)

Z-buffering.
Hi,

Z-buffering isn't a proper noun (it's a concept), therefore it shouldn't be capitalized except at the beginning of a sentence. Refer to any of a million references to it on the internets, and you'll see it isn't capitalized. --Agamemnus 18:41, September 20, 2010 (UTC)

RE:Defining IP's
Hey there, thanks for your interest in the Defining Anonymous Users Project. Like I have said to another user, I am looking for more experienced editors for the project. Again, thanks for your interest and I hope we can work together in future. Cheers, 07:30, September 24, 2010 (UTC)
 * If you really think you can write something more substantial there, go ahead. I will add your name to the list of moderators later. Thanks, 01:50, September 30, 2010 (UTC)
 * OK, I've read your bit and it's pretty good aside from a bit of rambling which I've removed. Thanks for helping! 07:26, September 30, 2010 (UTC)

sure
the reason we dont let people add themself anymore is just codeing reasons, but i added ur name, thanks for joing, nice image btw =) -- 18:12, October 1, 2010 (UTC)

RE:Teacher Request
You clearly understand the content, though I fear there are some things about the wiki in general that you need to grasp before you become a teacher. I suggest you read the UOL lesson on community interaction and try again later. Thanks for your interest, though. 18:17, October 1, 2010 (UTC)

yes, help me
yes, please ffix whaterver you can. thank you so much for offering help. ^_^

Re:Hello.
Sorry, I use page diffs to read messages, and didn't go far back enough to read yours. :o -- 19:34, October 3, 2010 (UTC)

No, iz not quitting. Why do you ask? 19:05, October 5, 2010 (UTC)

howdy
208.58.123.145 is a rather fun chap to talk to. annoyed by the lack of signing though :/ --Jakezing2 21:41, October 5, 2010 (UTC)
 * Some vandal a few hours ago. idk, i was bored haha so i was talking to him before he got banned.--Jakezing2 03:14, October 6, 2010 (UTC)

Poor kid...
Hey, it's not kills it's killed.

You can start here: http://www.learnenglish.de/grammarpage.htm

This message was unsigned by User:Ikin.

No need to be rude, and I'm not a kid I'm actually older then you.

Unsigned again by User:Ikin

Ok, tell me how did I act immature?

Did I call you a jerk, kid or anything?

Think of that before you call some one something.

OMFG! User:Ikin NEVER SIGNS?
 * Hey, no need to just go and attack people because they are new to wiki. I didn't sign anything when I was new. Is that being immature? Not really. And anyone can make grammar mistakes. Please be more careful when warning users. Thanks, 15:26, October 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * Don't worry, I know you were trying to help, but please do not offend users in the future. 15:29, October 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * The problem is, he reacted like that because you called him a kid. And that doesn't matter. Someone being offensive doesn't mean you should offend them. 15:46, October 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * But again, someone offending you doesn't mean you should go offend them. Also, I fail to see how it's old, it happened like 20 mins ago 15:58, October 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * Yes, but it's important for you to get my point, or the same will happen with other users. 16:03, October 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * You don't call each other kids for no reason whatsoever when you are debating/arguing. 16:19, October 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * Is you/him being a kid or not relevant to the topic? No. Did any of you have proper reasoning to call each other kids? No. Is it offensive? Yes. That's most certainly attacking. 16:25, October 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * Saying "Sorry about the "kid" part, but you acted immature" is not apologising. That has no difference from saying "Sorry for calling you stupid, but you are a complete idiot" 16:38, October 6, 2010 (UTC)

Re
I can't tell if you're being serious, but you obviously haven't been to RS if you don't know what it is. 05:06, December 2, 2010 (UTC)


 * If you hover over the signature, you'll see it's a dungeoneering cape. 11:50, December 2, 2010 (UTC)


 * Oh, then that's Domo, a japanese cartoon character. 12:23, December 2, 2010 (UTC)


 * You do have to realize that some people don't use the Oasis skin, so people's avatar doesn't display in Monobook, so I had no idea what you were talking about for a while. 12:25, December 2, 2010 (UTC)

Please fix your signature
Have a look at this edit you just made. Most of the characters added in the edit are the raw form of your sig; this practice unnecessarily bloats pages and your signature won't update as you change it.

Do the following:
 * Create this page.
 * Copy your signature code into the page and save:


 * Go to your preferences and place this in the Signatures box:
 * Make sure the custom signature box is checked and save.

Voila. -- 10:46, December 2, 2010 (UTC)


 * I'm just going to comment that it should not be Runescape: in front of the signature. I will merge the two together, since you did use to have an existing signature.

RE:Rollback
No, only a Bureaucrat can give you rollback rights, and I am not a B'crat. 19:24, December 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * Oh, and there's a list of Bureaucrats here. Feel free to ask one of them, if their name is familiar. As of now, the only active Bureaucrats are User:Karlis and User:Azaz129, with User:Dtm142 and User:Laser Dragon being semi-active. I will ask Karlis if I see him in game to look in on it. 19:26, December 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * Well, we don't have "ranks" on the wiki, though I suppose you could structure things like this in regards to the rights held by each user group. Each "higher" user group holds all the rights of each group below it.


 * 1) Bureaucrats: Can make another user into a Sysop, Rollbacker, Custodian, or another Bureaucrat. All Crats are Sysops.
 * 2) Sysop: Can perform standard maintenance tasks (block, delete) and determine consensus, but cannot assign user groups like a Bureaucrat can. A sysop can be "promoted" to a Crat if he or she is highly trustworthy.
 * 3) Custodian: Can move files.
 * 4) Rollbacker: Can use the Rollback Tool.
 * 5) Regular User: Can upload files.
 * IP: Can edit.

Remember, no body is "more important" than anybody else, regardless of their usergroup status. See RS:AEAE for more. 20:07, December 3, 2010 (UTC)
