That wasn't exactly vandalism; that was talking about clans from the game (which is still against the rules) but not vandalism. He probably didn't know that it wan't allowed. And btw, Second! 08:34, January 26, 2012 (UTC)


 * Did you tell him what he was doing wrong (you can't advertise clans from the game itself)? 16:32, January 26, 2012 (UTC)


 * I'm (apparently) a vandal and I don't think I'm doing anything bad. Someone messages me on my talk with a template that has 10 links all going to different pages with different policies, and I don't know which one of them I'm apparently breaking. Not ranting or anything, but if you reverted and warned him several times, you could have messaged him and told him what he was doing as well as a clear link to RS:PDDA. 17:00, January 26, 2012 (UTC)

Vandalism warning
Y'know, it might be a good idea to let the antivandal who undid the vandalism do the warning 17:10, January 29, 2012 (UTC)
 * 1, they may have a specific warning in mind. 2, it's rude to go around stealing other peoples' vandals. 3, your warning message looks a bit, for lack of a better word, stupid 17:13, January 29, 2012 (UTC)

RS:SAOW misinterpretation
Editors come in all shapes, sizes, and powers, from the bureaucrat, to the administrator, to the standard editor, to the anonymous editor. It's possible that an editor is a player moderator, a forum moderator, or a member with exceptionally high levels in some skills. Due to human nature, an editor's status, popularity, attitude, demeanour, or in-game experience may influence the way we think about them. However, at no time may a user's group membership, in-game experience, or any other factor regarding that user's status affect the validity of his opinions in disputes. Where does it state that this applies to assignment of user rights? 17:01, February 6, 2012 (UTC)
 * Yes, it is required for consensus, but the way you used it on the thread, you are arguing that Ansela has just as much right to gain the RD tools, which isn't the case. A non admin is not a suitable candidate to receive tools usually reserved for 'crats, no matter how much of an active countervandal they are, and to play SAOW as reasoning against that theory is pretty much quoting AEAE  17:13, February 6, 2012 (UTC)
 * If you bothered reading my comment I said that somebody who had been an admin at least 6 months. That way they have had time to become familiar with the tools.  I fail to see your logic in stating that somebody who doesn't even have access to the deletion tool is suitable to use the revdel tool, which has a higher chance of abuse or misuse, and is harder to reverse than the abuse or misuse of the deletion tool  17:30, February 6, 2012 (UTC)
 * That they would have to pass consensus to become an admin before passing consensus to become a revdel is, much as I hate this term, common sense, but also according to Ryan a requirement. I just asked him if Wikia would assign the RD tools to a non admin and he said no  17:45, February 6, 2012 (UTC)

Flaysian, just going to say that Wikia is hesitant to give these user rights to anyone altogether outside of their own staff. If they did say yes to such a request, it would be the first for a non-administrator to get these rights. The fact that they don't trust administrators with it (outside of consensus of users already with the sysop group right) is a good feeling to know their position on such extensions. The best way to double check me on this is to ask Dopp or another staff member in ##wikia on Freenode or see if they are on Skype right now. 18:00, February 6, 2012 (UTC)

Re: Clan Chat
I'll be sure to kick you right now make a note in my short-term memory not to kick you. Whether or not it survives until the next kick list is debatable. Also, I removed the people you identified from the kick list with the exception of Hot Water, who I'm told by someone who knows him in real life has been permanently banned for undisclosed reasons. 18:49, February 12, 2012 (UTC)

Clan Chat
You said that in response to RSDV commenting that we already trust Gareth not to run off with the clan chat. Just in case you were curious, it's quite easy for the owner to run off with a clan chat. All he has to do is kick everyone else and he'd get the name and the citadel as an extra bonus. Granted, if he did that, he definitely wouldn't be given a rank in the new wiki CC, but there's nothing we can do about the name/citadel. If he didn't want to kick everyone, he could always change the permissions so that only the owner can do anything in the clan and kick/derank the admins so they couldn't mess with his plans.

Of course, while only the owner may run off with a clan chat, other ranks can do substantial damage as well. Any bureaucrat that joins now can reduce the clan down to one member (Gareth). Either Ryan or I can reduce it down to two members (Gareth and whichever one of us isn't doing the kicking). Any admin can reduce it down to 23 members.

So, just to set the record straight, while I completely trust Gareth, Ryan, myself, and the admins not to go on a kick fest, it is entirely possible to do so and running off with a clan chat is quite simple.

I apologize for wasting your time with such a useless textwall. 00:09, February 23, 2012 (UTC)

dat tuen
remember dat time when I asked for some tune that was something like  and nobody knew what it was of? I asked some people irl and I found out what it was, and they told me it was some dutch thing, but now I r really confus, because Family guy used it in one of their episodes: http://www.familyguyepisodes.tv/family_guy_season_3_episode_12_to_love_and_die_in_dixie.html at 8:50. Nao I am wondering again, WHAT IS DAT OF D: 11:44, March 10, 2012 (UTC)

Why?!
So I recently found out from the regulars in the Chat that you persuaded Ansela to remove the sock mask emoticon, which doesn't sit well with me at all. My big question is why? It's not like people were misusing it to the point that it became a problem or anything... Basically, I'm ticked off at both you and Ansela since you apparently took it upon yourselves to remove it without asking anyone else for their opinion, and since that was like the only emoticon I liked, I don't feel like letting the matter go that easily. Therefore, I'll support the removal of other popular emoticons that serve no actual purpose such as the cake emoticons and several of the smileys unless I get my sock mask emoticon returned. Thank you, and have a nice day. 03:00, March 12, 2012 (UTC) P.S.: No, I am not trolling, in case you were wondering. I'm seriously upset that you and Ansela removed my favorite emoticon without even letting me know beforehand. Thanks for letting me find out the hard way that the emoticon I used more than others was removed.
 * Sockmask phails ;3= So Flay, what is this pencil thingy you uploaded? File:Editf.png. Should it go in the orphanage? It's just floating around right now.. 03:11, March 14, 2012 (UTC)
 * If it's a wikia sprite, it can go in the orphanage. It can't be left around unused though, or it'll be deleted by someone eventually. 17:07, March 14, 2012 (UTC)

About Naikiw...
Apparently he's making separate articles for the GE sets and the actual sets of equipment as worn by players, so I would recommend holding off on moving the articles back unless you've got a good reason to revert war with him over it. Just a friendly head's up... 20:31, April 14, 2012 (UTC)

I'm idling in the chat as I clean up the house for guests. Pm me when/if you're back on. Also, I totally had a dream while napping that the wiki got hacked and I had to ProtectSite. It was bad. 18:25, May 31, 2012 (UTC)
