Talk pages do not highlight a specific area for correction, and tend to be ignored. This section of the article was so horrendously written I felt it needed correction immediately. Unfortuantely, I am not witty enough to make the necessary changes, and thus did what I did. Dipshit. NeedAccount2Edit 00:15, 5 September 2009 (UTC)

template question

hey WM! does this contain enough lulz to warrant a template? Maybe the part after 'overpiped' can be fluid? I was thinking of making a gif of that old 'pipes' screen saver for it, if you think it's worth using. Thanks

Comment This article is overpiped. Sometimes less is moar.

  • you're right - if an article is actually overpiped, it's probably better to just make it lulzier, rather than to point a template at it and move on. sometimes passing thoughts are funnier when left passing. that, and maybe i should drink less. thanks © hallenge 22:42, 5 September 2009 (UTC)

you want some help, you got it. just give me a ring if you need it. k a z a n t z a k i s 04:02, 5 September 2009 (UTC)

  • I would fire it off to gv as soon as you are done. She wants to Aotn it, but I don't know when. k a z a n t z a k i s 05:12, 6 September 2009 (UTC)
  • hi stalker! anyways, the article is about the war last year in south ossetia. remember when the former soviet union went down there and kicked some georgian ass? wtf nobody ever told me you could use three tildes. k a z a n t z a k i s

South Ossetia

Remember last year? Such a brave and optimistic time. Remember the American political race that led us to new hope? Remember the nations of the world, joined together in peace and harmony, as yet another Olympic games were opened and the doves of tranquility were allowed to spread their wings and fly? And then, in the middle of all that hope, peace, and bright new beginnings, remember when Georgia, the former Soviet republic, decided they wanted to try starting World War Three?

You said you’d never forget!!!

Amidoinitrite?

...cuz I'm pretty sure I'm not. Is there a way to reference .mov files that I've uploaded? Or is it just a blue link? I'd like it to display like a youtube vid - should I just run over and upload them there? Thanks again © hallenge 05:47, 6 September 2009 (UTC)

  • ok cool - thanks again for the help. © hallenge

Nine Eleven

I am sure the old "jews did 9/11" could be tossed up there, but if you get a chance, check out the forums. I think some of the members there are putting together a 9/11 rage troll thread. I am not sure when this is going to happen, but it should over the next few days. k a z a n t z a k i s

enjoy--A Boku is fine too.

05:52, 6 September 2009 (UTC)


^^^yeah, this sort of stuff. anyways WN, yes you should join up. one or two bans and you'll be feelin it. k a z a n t z a k i s

Or better yet, just get weev to do a REALLY good jews did WTC rant. Edit the mainpage so it appears above the AOTN, and have it there for 9/10 - 9/12.
Another idea, same as the above idea for a weev vid, but set this to autoplay.
btw dan is IRC broke again ?

quick question

is there a way to download recent changes into a text file at certain intervals? just the raw data, none of the html or other wiki markup. k a z a n t z a k i s

what i am trying to do

thanks for the reply. take a look at this: Forum RSS reader. what this is doing is grabbing lines out of the RSS feed that the forum produces. it then sends the information to your desktop as a clickable link. i was just wondering if there was any good way to do this for the Recent Changes page. i suck at regexp and i was told that this page may be the answer to what i am trying to do. do you have any ideas? k a z a n t z a k i s

  • YES! that would be awesome. lol, is it possible to have a recent changes rss feed? thats what i am really after, however there are many pages that would be totally kickass in rainmeter. k a z a n t z a k i s

yes, I tried to be as subtle about it as possible... ;) ♦ Raspberry Rush [talk page]

Re:lol

Yeah definitely. I got them in a "you laugh you lose" thread on some random forum that came up when I was doing a Google image search for pedobear. --zaigertalkplx 16:05, 9 September 2009 (UTC)

another annoying embed question

is there any way to tuck a quote into the collapsing {{fv}}, so that when you click 'next vid' it automatically brings up the next quote? or would i make a collapsing quote and try to tuck the collapsing {{fv}} into that? or should i just give up? © hallenge

hi WM! yes, i'm trying to slip a quote in under each video, so that the proper quote will show when the 'next' or 'previous' video is clicked. so far i have not had great success. I am able to add a caption that changes with the video, but was curious if the quote formatting would be able to be slipped in.. thank you again, sir. © hallenge

  • awesome.

portal idea

i thought i'd seen a place for suggestions for the site; the "improvement suggestions" thread at the forums seems like it's for the forums, rather than the wiki. in any case, i figured you'd be the best person to ask. i use random page pretty frequently, and got to wondering if there'd be a way to do random page within a chosen portal. just a thought. pax © hallenge

Imma Let You Finish your work but first I gotta mention...

I really like that somebody noticed how that Taylor Swift had no breasts at all. When I saw the video on youtube for the first time, I was like "WTF? This woman has no breasts at all! Is it her shirt doing that?! She makes Keira Knightley look big-breasted!" --Ritegroic 01:45, 18 September 2009 (UTC)

Lolspam

Hey, theres been a spammer thats popped up about three times now (Probably more) advertising viagra and vandalizing pages with spam. I figured the best thing to do would be to leave a message here and suggest that Mysterybot auto-revert any edits containing "buy viagra" seeing as all of their spam edits do. Thanks for your time.

Vandalism

Please keep me updated on what's happening with my user page and User:Felicia. That's my daughter's name, but I think Felicia and 1Conundrum are the same person...maybe the same IP number. Thanks! UncleBastard2u 21:36, 5 October 2009 (UTC)

Mystery Bot flagged as possible vandalism [1]. Is there any way of getting my account on the non-vandal list for the bot? ~ CATS 10:58, 11 October 2009 (UTC)

yo

i wanted to see about hiring your services for a small wiki i run. i was referred here by friends of weev/gv named zeno. forgive me if i am not using this correctly- but i heard i could hire your bot service to help protect my wiki from blanking/vandalism.

if you would like to contact me my aim is tz222tz and i am also avaible by email at natefuller@safe-mail.net

thank you

Casual Friday

Hola, mysterio blanco. I was trying to be crafty and added a link underneath the casual friday flash banner in the article above to promote the t-shirt shop, but I am thinking the powers at be have a template or something already made up to promote those shirts akin to the longcat picture I have seen float around? Let me know what I can do or you can tackle it yourself if it's quick. You were the first sysop I saw!-- What would you do for a ? 04:24, 17 October 2009 (UTC)

Fark

sorry i missed you on irc last night, i was busy watching the yankees game. when you mentioned working on the fark page in the mailing list, i started a little something on your original fark rewrite page. what you have so far is pretty much better than what i have there, so i wouldnt change anything...you do good work when you have time!  :D k a z a n t z a k i s

irc meeting

I'm unfortunately going to have to miss it. It's just gone 4am here and I've wrapped up my work and needs some sleep before tomorrow's onslaught. Please send my apologies! ♦ Raspberry Rush [talk page]

  • nah, not really, I think KH will pretty much say what I would. Just make sure people are pointed to [[Category:Deathnotice]] as a small taste of the ongoing shit we need to filter. Thanks!! ♦ Raspberry Rush [talk page]

In Soviet Russia, template creates YOU!

Hey dude. Here to bother you with a coupla things...

  1. I created this template with some other kids and I had a question about the variables. I wasn't able to make the {{#ifeq <test string> | <value if true> | <value if false>}} work.
  2. Did you make that collapsing youtube/quote template? i thought i saw you working on it in RC a long time ago, but never saw what happened with it.
  3. Meme portal - can I start on it?

thanks! © hallenge

Obtaining a copy of MysteryBot

Some people I hang with online want to start a wiki. No it won't have anything to do with drama. But, I continue to be awe struck by MysteryBot and how well it works and was told you wrote it. So, how do I obtain a copy of it so I can get it running on this wiki?

Thanks in advance, --party shaker 11:05, 12 November 2009 (UTC)

Sorry it took me a while to get back to you. Well I'm a lunix nerd so I don't run any MS stuff. Are there similar bots for my platform you'd recommend? The server(s) it'd be run on would either be a ubuntu server box for non serious serveing or a shared Debian pizza box off at some colo/host place.
Whats your thoughts on pywikipediabot?
Your bot still impresses me with it's accuracy and efficiency. I'll add this quote to it's article if it's not there already.


 
 
Listen, and understand. That terminator is out there. It can't be bargained with. It can't be reasoned with. It doesn't feel pity, or remorse, or fear. And it absolutely will not stop, ever, until you are dead.
 

 

—A wise ED member


I may like to take a look at it's config file. I'm pretty comfortable with the way it operates on this site. I'm not sure I can use it though as I'd
like to stick the bot in a screen session or have it run as a daemon of sorts (init.d) on my server at home. If you don't want to share that out
thats cool I may as you pointed questions when I play around with whatever bot software I chose. I'm new to this whole thing so I'm still learning.
Thanks again.

Archiving vandalism

I was archiving to clean up a talk page and the bot reverted it, is there a way to get around that? Ty 08:07, 14 November 2009 (UTC)

embeds list

thanks! that will be helpful. the only other thing i've been doing is using my browsers search function to find vids that are in multiple articles (there haven't been too many). not sure if you can do anything with that.  :D © hallenge

Could you unban Shkogggg? She wasn't vandalizing! We need her!

Yo

  1. 07:36, 14 November 2009, MysteryBot (Talk | Contribs | Ræp) raped Wait what? (Talk | Contribs) (infinite, account creation blocked) ([Automatic] Username violates naming conventions.) (unblock)

This kind of thing shouldn't block account creation. That = not good. A real sysop will get it or the bot will get it if it ends up vandalizing, but if you're being banned for username you should get the chance to make a new one. There shouldn't be an IP block either for it imo. --SheneequaTalk 16:01, 23 November 2009 (UTC)
