Re: image replacement
Sorry, I just uploaded an entirely new image with the shadow removed. --Coolnesse 02:50, April 26, 2010 (UTC)
 * Do you necessarily have to merge the histories? Why not just keep them the way they are? --Coolnesse 03:06, April 26, 2010 (UTC)
 * I almost never take an item image from the wiki and remove its shadow and crop it - I take the screenshot myself in game and upload it as a .png and replace the .gif, which has in almost every case been obsoleted (item has been edited by jagex) or not fully edited to begin with. Unless it's completely unfeasible (ie charm images) I do not like converting the images to gif. LordDarkPhantom didn't crop+remove the shadow of these particular images until yesterday, and I apparently took my pictures immediately before (having just finished WGS :D) and did not upload them until today. Or something like that. 10:01 pm, Today (UTC−5)

I go through Special:UnusedFiles every day. --Coolnesse 05:53, April 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * As far as I can see right now, a few images there can have a home someday, so I leave those alone. I simply put Template:D on the other ones. --Coolnesse 06:01, April 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * Be my guest. You can do whatever you wish with those images. --Coolnesse 06:08, April 28, 2010 (UTC)

Bad ads
Do you know if we have a policy of what to do when you see ads for things like RWT and bot sites?? Ever since the affiliation I am getting non-stop rwt and bot ads... 03:47, April 26, 2010 (UTC)
 * Er, for the Wikia ads you mean? I should stop "evesdropping" :P Ajraddatz Talk 03:56, April 26, 2010 (UTC)
 * Ya, you should stop watching the RC so much. Ajraddatz Talk 04:02, April 26, 2010 (UTC)
 * I just remembered how in Forum:Jagex have become more transparent on affiliation Aburnett mentioned world of warcraft wiki's ad policy, which it itself is a copy of the help wiki's ads policy. 04:04, April 26, 2010 (UTC)
 * Heh, actually, I thought you were talking about me when you say the 15 hours on the RC thing. That is why I responded as if you had been talking about yourself. :P Ajraddatz Talk 17:23, April 26, 2010 (UTC)
 * Well, if I could spend 15 hours a day, then you wouldn't beat me to teh reverts :3 Ajraddatz Talk 17:27, April 26, 2010 (UTC)
 * Actaully, this has already been disproven. See the forum at central for proofz ^.^ Ajraddatz Talk 17:30, April 26, 2010 (UTC)
 * No, no, the bukkitz are getting to your head again. I must get you a good counsellor for dat. Ajraddatz Talk 17:50, April 26, 2010 (UTC)
 * I dunno where Canada is; somewhere with teh polar bearz and stuff. Ajraddatz Talk 02:52, April 27, 2010 (UTC)
 * Hmm, that might be right. I thought that it was somewhere to the north of the Arctic though.... Ajraddatz Talk 15:56, April 27, 2010 (UTC)
 * Must be, almost everything here is made in China :3 Ajraddatz Talk 15:59, April 27, 2010 (UTC)
 * Can't, that template is a few thousand bytes - besides, substituting talk page templates is for nubs. Ajraddatz Talk 16:10, April 27, 2010 (UTC)

 * TYSVM, that did the trick! Big smile.gif

Trivia
I just closed Forum:Runescape:Trivia policy. Since you were the proposer, if you have any more changes to add to RS:TRIVIA, then you should do it now. 02:12, April 27, 2010 (UTC)

Zeal Page
Why did you revert my edit to the table in zeal? I added all of the exp for every skill... 66.190.10.150

RE: Newpage pop-up
I agree, we should be encouraging people to create pages using one of the templates provided by MediaWiki:Newarticletext rather than the default text that the CreatePage extension uses. We may be able to ask Wikia to disable this extension, which is cleaner than that JavaScript solution (which may not be 100% reliable), and it also can get rid of the pop-up when you press the "Create a new article" link in the toolbox. -- 05:13, April 27, 2010 (UTC)
 * I've checked and it appears that Wikia can disable this on the site via w:Special:Contact, but we may need a YG topic to indicate consensus to remove it first. -- 16:01, April 27, 2010 (UTC)
 * Uberfuzzy said that the preload is a known problem with Special:CreatePage, so I'm guessing that Wikia will eventually fix it. I will see if I can implement a workaround in the meantime though.  -- 20:37, April 27, 2010 (UTC)

Try Combat user page
Someone assumed the nickname 'Try Combat' and wrote libelous statements on the Wikia page about that nickname. I am good friends with the real Try Combat, and neither he nor I found the comments very amusing. Now, when I try to change them to something more lighthearted, you revert it back to the pathetic previous state. Why?

:D
Thanks wojwoj :) Ajraddatz Talk 18:32, April 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * Well, a few things. First of all, this looks a lot like the work of one or two people, and not a group. While I really don't have anything to prove this, from months of counter-vandalism does give me a sense of this kind of thing. The vandalism was too organized to be done by a large group over a large area; even with a chatroom or something. To put it bluntly, the attack today was very unorganized and uproffesional. I'm not complaining :P. There is no doubt that this was pre-meditated, however, if there was a large number of people involved it would have run much more smoothly and much more damage would have been done. Also, the fact that only one edit happened at a time suggests one person, and the lag between IP switches suggests a single proxy. Alright, so I do have some facts that support a single personed attack. Anyways, I am going to watch over the next little while and see if any patterns emerge. If so, then we might be able to prevent some of this, especially if we can find out all of the IPs used. Anyways, thanks for blocking the user, and cleaning stuff, etc. Ajraddatz Talk 20:20, April 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * You definitely could be right, but with this case especially it is hard to tell. I don't want to complain, but I kinda wish they did a more organized and better job; then we can at least get some of the facts straight :P Ajraddatz Talk 20:26, April 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * Warning,one of the IPs just vandalized the article again. Please block 99.253.2.121. Ajraddatz Talk 20:30, April 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * Also, wrong, only bukkit-obsessed users are known to be double agents. Also, what is with the vandalism starting after I go on? :O Ajraddatz Talk 20:31, April 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * Maybe just protecting Godsword for a while would be good :P Ajraddatz Talk 20:33, April 28, 2010 (UTC)

 * Can you help me somehow fix User:Iiii I I I/indent so that when you put  , you get that number of &amp;nbsp;'s? -- 22:06, April 28, 2010 (UTC)

Re: Hi
I don't know if you mean the fruit, or the slightly less innocent reference, but either way the answer is no. 01:13, April 29, 2010 (UTC)
