User talk:Gangsterls

This is my talk page! I joined on 2/12/2007. My RuneScape username is Gangsterls, so if you need to contact me you can add me to your friends list and send a private message to me if I'm on. I usually spend quite a bit of time in the afternoons after school and on the weekends on RuneScape. Also, I live in the eastern United States so I'm on EST time.

RE: 99 Cooking video
Well, I lost the "zest" of editing, and dumped the video (sorry). Since I knew you wanted the footage available to be seen, I put it in my "RuneScape - The Riddle (D'Agostino)" video. If you really want me to make the vid, I will.

Also, I really don't want to archive my talk page. I'm going for 108 subsections to archive to beat User talk:Chiafriend12/Archive III, the talk page archive with the most subsections (to my knowledge). 06:39, 26 November 2007 (UTC)

Grand exchange box
Please stop adding the grand exchange box to item pages, as there is still a discussion on weather or not to keep it. Thanks. 02:03, 29 November 2007 (UTC)


 * Out of curiosity, where is this discussion taking place? --Robert Horning 04:34, 5 December 2007 (UTC)

Grand Exchange Market Watch
Thank you for your offer to help out. It is really appreciated that somebody else at least sees some value in what I'm trying to accomplish.

My objection to what is happening on my user page is that I know for a fact that not everybody reads every user talk page on a wiki of any appreciable size. I'm a little new here and I'm not really sure where the official "forum" is located at were policy discussion are held. Is it IRC, and there are no logs kept of the decision making process? Are the forum threads never used for deciding policies? Where are the community talk pages for these sort of decisions? Who makes these policy decisions ultimately? Why are major policies seemingly enacted with only a single "vote" of support (such as the 3RR policy)? Is the RSW community so small that only a couple of people really have editorial control over the whole project?

I know for a fact that the users that have been beating me up on my talk page aren't part-owners of Wikia. I know Angela and Jimbo personally (they know me too), but that is irrelevant in this situation as I'm just trying to participate in this wiki where "anybody can edit" and I'm getting frustrated where it appears as though I'm not really allowed to edit anything of substance. I'm certainly not vandalizing any pages in the traditional sense of an abusive user (at least I don't think so) and I hope that what I'm offering can be of substantial value to the project as a whole.

OK, I'm not the typical new user who starts by making a couple of minor edits and "grows up" within the wiki, and I'll admit that openly. I also know from experience that a couple of admins, if left unchecked, can drive away potential new contributors. I have some very thick skin from hundreds of small and petty wiki policy fights (and even some pretty big ones such as the current GFDL/CC-BY-SA fiasco the WMF is involved with), so this particular squabble is no real big deal and I'll let the current issues slide by with no real feelings of ill will toward some well minded administrators.

BTW, thanks again for your offer to help out. I can use some help with member items in Runescape especially, although I can certainly get the basic infrastructure put together so that will be relatively painless. Once we get some of the petty disagreements like the template issue, I anticipate that this will go pretty fast to get a majority of the items put into the market watch. I'm just trying to negotiate through some egos here, and I understand if it seems as though I'm shoving my elbows in pretty deep. I just have a big idea here, and I think that this is perhaps the best place to put it together on this wiki. --Robert Horning 12:20, 5 December 2007 (UTC)

thank you gansterls
-	thank you gangsterls *runescapehelperperson blushes*! -	I'm leaving because the geology wiki has been started by syugecin, scottman108 and I, and I feel it is more important than this wiki (no offense!). Along with that, i'm an admin their. Thank you for the respect -		 -	-Runescapehelperperson
