Signature
You should fix your signature because it links to "User:Example", which does not exist, instead to your user page. 22:55, July 21, 2012 (UTC)

Sorry, I just started to learn about HTML today. I pieced together my signature based on what I could find out from google a long time ago. I think I might have fixed it, but I don't seem to have a sandbox to try it in. So here it goes: JustSomeDude...  23:31, July 21, 2012 (UTC)

Yeah, that didn't quite do it... I think I need some help...

I can help you.

JustSomeDude...

Use this as your signature, in your preferences. If you want to change your signature, Levi or Rici can help you, they're good at making signatures and can teach you how. Levi also have a blog on how to make a signature as well, if you want to use that. 23:45, July 21, 2012 (UTC)

Let's try this again: JustSomeDude...  00:05, July 22, 2012 (UTC)

Yes! It works! Thanks a million Calu and Jade! JustSomeDude... 00:05, July 22, 2012 (UTC)

No problems, glad to help :) 00:06, July 22, 2012 (UTC)

Sig Coding
Hey, I noticed some of your comments on these recent forums, but whenever I into source mode, your sig isn't a template like the others. I used to have this problem, and eventually I learned that when you make a sig, you have one page with all the code and a second page with the previous page's name in brackets, like a template. Then when you go to your preferences, put the second page in the signature option. For a better explanation, talk to Rici. Thanks. 03:39, July 30, 2012 (UTC)

Thank you for letting me know about the problem. I didn't know I was doing it wrong. But Rici and THT helped me correct this problem. They're so patient... 21:10, August 1, 2012 (UTC)

Banning Policy
Here's what I do. For IP's, I only block repeat offenders, meaning people who vandalize multiple pages, or one page multiple times. I don't really bother with the ones who only do one thing and leave (I call them one hit wonders) because if I did then I would be doing almost nothing but banning IP's.

As for registered users, it depends on what they're doing and how long they've been here. If it's someone who only does one bad edit and leaves, then I treat them as a one hit wonder. If the person does multiple bad edits (and by bad edits, I mean stuff you know you're not supposed to do, like using inappropriate language in articles, blatant stuff), I just ban them without going through the whole warning thing. For users who I can tell have good intentions but are misguided, more often than not their crime is uploading photos that we don't allow (like fanart) or adding speculation or other fanfic crap to pages. People warn them usually and they usually ask me or Yata why the stuff they uploaded was deleted. I then explain the specific part of the image policy they violated. If, after people warn them and their uploads are deleted they continue to upload the same stuff, that is when I step in and state bluntly that if they don't stop, I will ban them. If they stop, everything's peachy and I don't have to do anything else. If they don't then I ban them usually for a month.

As for registered users who have been here a while and for the most part have contributed productively (by that I mean to a considerable number of articles and/or talk page/forum discussions, then they usually get warnings. If the problem doesn't get resolved and the user continues to be difficult, then the forum starts. If you want to see how banning forums work, then just check under users to be banned. That's pretty much how i've gone about the banning policy. If you have any further questions, just hit me up on my talk page. 00:01, August 9, 2012 (UTC)

The only people who know how long they get are the ones that go to forum. Anons get permabanned. As for the ones who mean well but don't listen, I just set it for like a month or something. 03:23, August 9, 2012 (UTC)

Draft of MoS
I don't know if I am allowed but can I edit your draft of the MoS to fix the links? Thanks. 08:22, August 9, 2012 (UTC)

I happen to see your draft, I think you are misunderstanding something: in your manual of style there are many things already settled in other policies, like the Category:Layouts, in the manual of style we should put style guidelines indeed, like "the first mention of the page subject name must be bold" and alike... read the first posts on Forum:Manual of Style for some examples.

Vandal
Hi, thank you for reporting that user to me. I have already saw that he edited as well founded many wikis, though not on all of them was a vandal. So we will look through his contributions and see if a global ban should be the case.

Its about time T^T
Hi Bro, thanks for letting me know ^_^ I will join in the discussion as soon as I get some time out of my busy college schedule T^T COLLEGE WITH 3 HOUR LECTURES SUCKS!!

Re:White Sig
Yeah, I purposely made my signature's color to match the wiki's background, so people would think that I didn't sign my posts :P Awesome trolling signature, right? 03:18, September 27, 2012 (UTC)

Whyyyyyyyyyyyyyy? This sig is totally AMAZING! D: 11:43, September 27, 2012 (UTC)

Just a small 'lil note of appreciation...
Dude, nothing much but just to say that I recognised you having quite a good supervisory and leadership skills in all that you've invested in improving the wikia on all aspects. From the manual of styles all the way to blog rules, I can see and feel your enthusiastic efforts. This is a very good quality to have (in a person) and I can see this quality carry you far and well into your future career, life and all. I can also feel you having the "no-quitting" attitude and that's good. Keep it up! 07:41, September 27, 2012 (UTC)

Are you sure this is a good exeption from the advise not to overload? -- [ defchris ] · [ Diskussion ] · 06:37, October 6, 2012 (UTC)

Sorry, got some internet problems over here, so I couldn't answer right away. *shakefist* But now that I had a couple of hours to think about it, it may only be the phrasing that bugged me... Maybe it's clearer this way? -- [ defchris ] · [ Diskussion ] · 11:45, October 7, 2012 (UTC)

RE: Image Guidelines
Hello, sorry for the inconvenience. I didn't know I had to put a source link for the images. I uploaded other images before and no one told me to do so. Next time I will do it as you said. Where can I put the source for the images? This is the source. Thanks. Link Harvey Dent, fiscal del distrito de Gotham (talk) 16:57, October 10, 2012 (UTC)

Re: Poll Rules Forum
I had a glance over it. I disagree on what you said about the banning forum rules not changing anything, since for the two ban forums that have occurred since I joined, neither Meganoide nor Klobis were banned for the extra week. And my objection for the first rule re language was that it was ambiguous, as it didn't clearly refer to a situation like the renders poll.

My view was that there's no point half-assing things - according to you your rules don't change anything, but there's no point having a poll that doesn't change anything then coming back two weeks later to talk about all these new rules that should also be considered. The discussion (including how to deal with multi-option polls) should take place all at once.

Since I'll be sitting in the exam hall 24 hours from now, that's all I have to say for the moment. 05:15, October 28, 2012 (UTC)

Re:Image Guidelines
Hey Thomas

Hope your all good! I was trying to upload a photo onto my own profile but it ended up on the recent photos. I have no idea how and Im only contacting you as it says so on the page so sorry for all this but could you delete it? as I could not find any delete button. Totally out of my depth ^_^

eddieteetree

Thanks man ^_^ I think Im gonna run away though. It's kinda way out of my depth here. You guys are experts and I do not really uinderstand how wikis work. I think I will be content to just observe ratrher than contribute from this day forward :-)

Thanks to you and all the others for all the effort you have put ionto this wiki though. I have just started to follow POP and didn't think it bore this much reading into as you all have shown it does, which is great and will mean it might live on for quite some time!Eddieteetree (talk) 14:40, October 30, 2012 (UTC) (Is this what you meant about the signature?) I did that last time but it looks kinda strange so I just put my name eddieteetree.

Admins forum
Sorry, I can't make the forum for quite a while. Apparently I'm expected to get the power back within a week or two. Sorry. I'll make it when I come back ASAP. Or if you want to get it as done as possible, you or someone else can make the forum. Again, sorry. 15:21, October 31, 2012 (UTC)

re:Image renaming template/category
Sure, that sounds great. I'd appreciate it, makes it easier to track pages down for renaming. 05:05, November 3, 2012 (UTC)

Re:I found something you might enjoy:
*cries from the grammar* 19:41, November 3, 2012 (UTC)

Renaming images
After an admin renames an image, would you like the honor of renaming the file links in their respective pages? It would be a lot of work to find them all and do it. 03:11, November 4, 2012 (UTC)


 * Quick extension to what Yata says, wouldn't it be easier to rename the files on the page first THEN rename the file itself? It will put a broken link in the page for a minute, but if you rename the file first, it will be harder to find the pages it's on, wouldn't it? 03:16, November 4, 2012 (UTC)

Well, if a non-admin renames the image before it's renamed, then that makes a broken link anyways. And then you have no idea when an admin will actually go and rename the images. That's why I think it's best to wait for the category to get filled and and appoint temporary admins to deal with the images in one fell swoop, and rename the image and the links at once. No need to deal with them every day. Also, we can see if bots can actually do it. 03:21, November 4, 2012 (UTC)

Yeah, they can do it. About your template, it seems perfect to me. Just changed the doc page a bit.

Sorry!!
I just wanted to apologise for the way I called you out like that on chat, I hope we can put this whole thing behind us. 02:23, November 6, 2012 (UTC)

Pages with broken file links
Haha, don't worry, I wasn't serious—it was obvious you were afk or glitched. Glad you like it anyway!

Don't rejoice too much though. There are still ~985 deleted files that are linked in the wiki (it seems the category does not count user pages, forums, and the likes).

You're right, the category's added whenever the page is edited. Well, anyway, there's still a lot work remaining!…

About the volume jpg's to png's: leave them be and I'll come back to it later… It's a request that needs supervision, and I'm real busy!

Question
I have two questions:

1. Do you guys just delete any pictures you can't find any use of even though they pertain to images/information of scenes displayed in the anime/manga?

2. How are new users supposed to know which pictures are useful or needed by users on this Wiki?

you have told me that before and yes I only asked people to vote, however I got replies back from people in which I replied back that you first and foremost feel like banning me for one insult. However I have not asked them to vote either way. (OnePieceNation (talk) 14:06, February 8, 2013 (UTC))

you did say/agreed my ban should be longer then the previous one. Sorry to be so personal but I do still think that you are overreacting. (OnePieceNation (talk) 14:44, February 8, 2013 (UTC))

Straw-Hat pirates talk page - Sorry
Sorry about all the bunch of text that just popped up on the talk page, I think it must have happened because I was about to edit the talk page, when my computer crashed... Maybe that's got something to do with it? Anyway sorry about that, and I hope I didn't do permanent damage. WonderfulUnicorn (talk) 14:46, February 8, 2013 (UTC)

I don't think I was using visual mode, but when I published, the message about that another editor was also editing the text at the same time as me popped up, then my computer crashed, and when logged in again the whole page was just filled with random numbers and stuff, so I don't really know what happened... WonderfulUnicorn (talk) 14:58, February 8, 2013 (UTC)

re:"New" Image Rule clarification.
Anyone can add the info into anyone's images. It's just that one hour after the image's upload, if the info is not there, then it's deleted. And as an admin, I just wanna stress that out, so the uploader would be responsible enough to add it themselves. 20:15, February 12, 2013 (UTC)

Well, since others add the info before I notice, I wouldn't know who doesn't bother to add the info to what they upload. But if you know who, why not give them a message, and if they don't add the info, then just leave their images up without the info, and let them be deleted to be a more practical message. 21:03, February 12, 2013 (UTC)

Then tell people to leave those info-lacking images alone, so they'd be deleted. And those who don't put info into their own images, we can give them a warning or something. I'd think we probably should boost the rules by placing punishments for failing to adhere to the info rules. Wanna set up a forum? 02:02, February 13, 2013 (UTC)

I don't understand why your feautured article vote hasnt gotten any votes...

I'd vote for it if there wasn't Caesar 22:14, February 13, 2013 (UTC)

My bad, that was me who edited it. On the Arc pages it said PH ended at 697 and Dressrosa at 698 which I thought made sense because the Straw Hats had set sail and then Kuzan showed up the next chapter. What do you think? (Do you mind splitting this for me? Thanks)

Edit conflict extension
It does not seem to be installed by Wikia: http://dev.wikia.com/wiki/List_of_Wikia_Extensions so, probably not… (It seems to cause problems with anonymous edits anyway.)

logic
If you want the straw hats to automatically be featured then you shouldn't nominate a non-straw hat since you're giving that article a chance of becoming featured hence lowering the chance for an actual straw hat to be featured. Just saying ^^.

Yeah, it does work, however, there's no need to copy it to your own page, instead you can use mine by going to your global.js page and adding the following; importArticles({   type: "script",    articles: [        "w:c:onepiece:User:Sewil/MarkForDeletionRemix.js" //MarkForDeletionRemix    ] });

Poll template
Hi, I'm super busy these times, so I've got no time to do something complicated, but if you give more details it could be possible. In particular, how do you think it should be used? The template stays on the page and everyone signs in it? Or the template is to be substituted, and only creates the basic code with sections etc.?

RE: RE: Logic
Hey JSD, sorry for the late response, I've been trying simplify the code and test it in various way to make it more effecient. So to answer your request; I don't think leaving just that message is enough to make it a button of its own. I mean, the buttons take up a pretty large space and there are plenty of other messages that you would want to type in the talk page rather than the IGR template, right now the wikia already have a smart way of quickly adding messages by pressing the "Leave message" button at the top.

That's against the rules, marking a page for deletion is simply telling the admins that they should check it out and if it's approved it will be deleted, the content in it shall not be deleted.

There is sometnhing I didn't understand: you wrote that one of the problems (apart from being a duplicate) was that there aren't any categories for the image (or something like that, I don't quite remember and now it is removed). What does that mean? Also, are the images from the raw manga the only ones approved? Or can we add images from the translated manga (text removed)? Robin stargazer (talk) 19:45, March 29, 2013 (UTC)

Regarding File Redirects
Hey, just to let you know, I'm partly the reason lots of file redirects are deleted, since I was instructed to delete them as I rename images. I do still fix them on user pages, though the redlink is still there for a few seconds. So I suppose this means I should keep the redirects when they're renamed? 18:00, April 15, 2013 (UTC)

re:File Redirects
I dunno who's marking them either, but I just delete what was marked. Maybe a bad code of operation... If they are unused redirects, then it's okay, right? =P 18:06, April 15, 2013 (UTC)

Game Images
Hello JustSomeDude... . I am wondering if images of characters from the game One Py Berry Match could be included on characters' galleries. I have been gathering images of different characters in the game and plan to upload them when I make an account if they can be used. I made a forum topic about it as well. Thank you. 98.235.235.72 22:32, April 26, 2013 (UTC)

Thanks?
Thank you for the message on the image guidlines, but I am already aware of the rules, besides i go to Straw-Hat Luffy for confirmation when giving him photos just in case. But it was a bit odd, did i break any image rules?

Images
I was sending them to Straw-Hat Luffy for approval, i meant no harm (and i have no skill with editing info for images, i can make them though).

Re: Images
ok, i'll keep that im mind next time, its just that i've done that previously with him. And i would upload them into the desired places, but i am terrible at image placing at wikis.

AsuraDrago (talk) 01:39, May 7, 2013 (UTC)

Image Guidelines
Yeah, I'm aware of that. I added the delete template immediately after I uploaded the image. Actually, I was planning to use that image for a blog. So is it alright if I do so? 12:31, May 9, 2013 (UTC)

Duelmaster
If you really want to teach Duelmaster a lesson, open a ban forum for him. There's no rule that says I can't fix his images, and I'm only putting the information there because I'd just reupload it anyways. 15:19, May 16, 2013 (UTC)

And you can check my forum to see that Yata said it was FINE. What should happen is the user who messes up should be in trouble, NOT the one who is trying to fix. There's no reason to delete something that somebody will just reupload correctly. 15:27, May 16, 2013 (UTC)

Hey are you refrencing my profile pic or 6846716.jpg? If its the latter, then I am aware of my mistake. Sadly I read the image guidelines afterward and so removed it from the intended page. However can I delete photos myself if i do upload incorrectly, and if so how? Also do the image guidelines apply to my profile pic? ThanksKolva (talk) 03:37, May 17, 2013 (UTC)

re:Temporary Admin request
Okay, just don't abuse it (I know you won't, but just a heads up). Cheers! 01:33, May 18, 2013 (UTC)

Oh, by the way, no need to leave behind redirects, it'd be better to use the actual file name. So please uncheck that "Leave Redirect" box. 01:35, May 18, 2013 (UTC)

A Small Request
Hello there. Could you leave the character portraits to me? MasterDeva (talk)

Thanks. MasterDeva (talk) 15:39, May 18, 2013 (UTC)

Oh I almost forgot, I have a friendly advice for you. Always double check the names written by Besty17. Keep that in mind before starting the process of moving an image file. MasterDeva (talk) 15:57, May 18, 2013 (UTC)

Image Parameter
Use http://onepiece.wikia.com/wiki/Miss_Monday?action=history instead of the old one, for pages with just manga post skip, and anime and manga pre skip.

You can remove it entirely if they just appear in the manga and anime pre skip or post skip, or if they have no appearance differences, and appeared in both time periods.

For people like Ricky who have only appeared after the timeskip or before the timeskip in the manga, use
 * switch = manga

And for people like Shuzo who have only appeared in the anime after or before the timeskip, use |switch = anime.

15:56, May 18, 2013 (UTC)

Nah, I fixed it to what it should look like though. 16:04, May 18, 2013 (UTC)

Because it was using the old parameter, but I just used him as an example character, not a page. I put the parameter we should use in the post above with it. 16:06, May 18, 2013 (UTC)

Sig template
Hi JSD, remember a time last year (Sep 30th) when you spotted my sig bearing Rici's page or something and you have corrected it for me? MDM and Neo has just made me a new sig and I think the same issue is occuring again.

I would like to ask you how to correct the issue. Is it difficult / complex? If its not, then I would like to learn it from you so I can manage my own next time instead of bugging you for the fix. Can you let me know please? Thanks.

Await your reply...

02:11, May 28, 2013 (UTC)

Thanks and very kind of you to fix it again for me, much appreciated.

Give me some time to digest your step-by-step instructions and try it. I will be in touch if I don't understand something.

Arigatou!

03:16, May 28, 2013 (UTC)

My friend, apologies for the delay. Have fully digested your instruction and I generally understood what needs to be done. Thanks for the instructions.

An Apology
I feel that you deserve this.

I was in the wrong on just about every single edit war I've ever faced off with you in, with the most recent one definitely being the Penguin and Shachi edit war. I did revert it out of spite, and was definitely being arrogant about it. My behavior over the past year has been mostly due to the stress I've accumulated from all the various assignments I've had to do and long nights (usually until 4 A.M.), with very little amounts of sleep. My "stress level" definitely isn't an excuse for any of my behavior though. Also, the Snarko thing was once again, me being an asshole just because of my personal beliefs about a user. I feel like there's been too much arguing, and very little cooperation between myself and various users, and that's definitely not how a wikia should be run. You were definitely right in saying that trust is a vital piece to a wikia project, and obviously, my behavior wasn't over a matter of trust, but over a matter of spite.

If my ban forum ends up resulting in a ban though, and if I decide to come back after that, I do hope that we can actually cooperate in improving the wikia project, and not bicker over nonsense. What's best for the wiki is definitely not one user's spiteful opinions. 02:05, June 2, 2013 (UTC)

Once again, I do completely understand the ban thing. My apology definitely doesn't excuse any of my prior actions, and therefore it must still be punished.

I definitely agree with all your points. I tried to make editing into a sort of challenge, and obligation, in order to get to the "top", when in reality, it was silly, and shouldn't have been thought of in that way. I agree that I took on too many projects, be it the JPG replacements, the episode images, or even the category fixing. When I return, I plan on knocking out each one of those one at a time, so that it is done as efficiently as possible, and not halted due to me changing projects.

Definitely agree with the politics thing too. I tended to get too into that, and anticipated the drama unfolding, but that's definitely not what should've been my "main focus". Although I do like idling in the chat, closing it out when I'm not using it would be very beneficial, as when I return to my computer, I won't automatically see the wikia and feel obligated to edit. Indeed, I agree that being unbiased is hard, but I am going to push myself to be so, so that the wikia can have progress, and not be halted. Definitely agree that the readers are the most important. I feel I looked at some things more-so about how I would enjoy it, when that wasn't really what should've been on my mind in the first place. Definitely agree on the apology thing and admitting when someone is wrong. Holding it in a long time can lead to even more stressful conditions, and probably contributed to the aggressiveness, and the eventual opening of the ban forum.

No need to apologize for the long response time, or the long-winded response. I'm glad that you actually took the time to reply, as it will help me to improve myself as an editor as a result. After all my previous actions, I really couldn't have blamed you if you had ignored it. 17:39, June 2, 2013 (UTC)

Re:Kamakiri
I'll deal with it as soon as I can. I'm adding some of the SBS Volume 70 information at the moment. 03:26, June 3, 2013 (UTC)

I am not edit warring. There is tons of stuff that is reverted to manga for trivial rudementary reasons that I am putting back with ideal reasoning. Genocyber (talk) 21:25, June 13, 2013 (UTC)

Ace death image
The debate on the talk section of the file doesn't seem to be going anywhere. I'm under the impression that Unknownada is against it because he/she wants everything in the article to stay consistent with the anime, but Ace losing his necklace is still a huge inconsistency with the way the actual story is portrayed and even though some might argue that it isn't a big deal, we've used manga images for much less. Any input on this would be appreciated so we can sort this thing out. it'd be great to have an outside opinion so it's not just me and Unknown bickering back and fourth. http://onepiece.wikia.com/wiki/File_talk:Ace_Dies.png M4ND0N (talk) 05:37, June 14, 2013 (UTC)

Finding relevant pictures residing in the wikia
Hi JSD,

You may be aware that I am hosting a DF tourney at the moment. For the coming blog(s), I am considering the use of pictures (from the wikia, not external) in my blog to represent the two DFs contesting against each other. Since you are the de-facto leader of the Imaging team of the wikia, I think you are the best person I should be referring to regarding the matter.

1) Let's say my next blog features the Gomu Gomu vs Yomi Yomi. Can you tell me how do I find pictures relating to Gomu Gomu no Mi in the wikia gallery so I can find the best picture to represent that fruit (maybe a "Luffy cheek stretch pull" picture for Gomu Gomu and a "soul mode Brook" picture for Yomi Yomi)? Sometimes I can't find a lot of pictures relating to the fruit, maybe I am not doing it right. Can you tell me how best to find it?

2) Not sure if you can answer this but I'll just shoot first, redirect me to another if necessary. Once I have found the two pictures I like and will use those to represent the respective matchup, how do I code it into my blog content? What code(s) do I use for left / right align (since I want it to appear side by side) and also for resizing the pictures? Are you able to give me some pointers on this?

Thanks in advance.

06:03, August 2, 2013 (UTC)

Arigatou and much appreciated, those were good pointers. I will read up the link you provided on the technical stuffs of adding the picture into the blog. Ja~

00:07, August 3, 2013 (UTC)

Re: Couple questions
Hi JSD, and sorry for the delay…

I don't think it's possible for the template to detect the size of a picture. I don't think of a solution right now, except setting it manually. About the active talk template, why don't we use the existing one for talk pages and forums?

We miss you!
If available, get on the chat. If not available, get on the chat anyway. 21:54, August 31, 2013 (UTC)

Sorry about. I barely remembered the discussion from a few months ago, and didn't see that not many people had commented on it. 18:07, September 3, 2013 (UTC)

re:sig
alright it should be fixed-- 21:55, September 3, 2013 (UTC)

RE: Jpg Images
Right. 03:14, September 13, 2013 (UTC)

Re:Image queue script
That's good, I'm glad it's useful. Yes I'm aware that this is happening, and there's not really any way to prevent it without first waiting around five to ten seconds in the middle of running the script for Wikia's servers to update. At the moment, it renames the image first before submitting the changed pages to the server. It completes this process so fast that Wikia's servers are still in the process of renaming the image when the edited page(s) are submitted. Reloading the page fixes it because by then the servers have updated. This category is added automatically by MediaWiki, and to be honest most wikis have disabled it because of this. It does no harm being enabled, but it will always show that there are broken file links on the page until someone loads the page in their own browser. To disable it you can simple replace with this:. Sorry for the inconvenience! — Foodbandlt (talk) 18:06, September 13, 2013 (UTC)

Re: Inactivity and Rollback rights
Firstly, sorry for the relative late reply (will collaborate). I have read through the Forum at hand, and since I know my Inactivity is part of the topic here, I want to apologize for that too... School started again some weeks ago, and it's my last year at Junior High, so the work pile has been building up a lot. You see, I really want to continue on to Middle High with great results, and for that I have to work hard. Also, we just had test exams, which I have been reading up on... It's been quite the mess really. This is the main reason for my inactivity, but there's also some other stuff that's been keeping me busy, like that it's been a raise in football and swimming lessons for my teams per week. I know it may not be such a good excuse, but I hope you'll understand my situation.

Still, I do intend to come back to editing, and since my test exams are over, and since stuff have calmed down a little bit, it may be possible for me to edit like I did before, on a regular basis. If I could keep my Rights, I would try to help out as much as I possibly can with the Image renaming, and I'd try to use them more often possibly. But, for all means, I don't need the Rights. So if you want to give them to someone else, who probably deserves it better, then it's fine with me. I'll still edit here anyhow.

Oh, and my Internet Issues were already fixed some time ago (I just forgot to remove it from my Profile), so there's no need to worry!

Also, sorry for making this so long... Probably looks like an essay.

See you around. WU out - 15:12, September 16, 2013 (UTC)

Sorry
Well I went a little insane there so I just wanted to apologize for being a moron and saying what I said. No excuse for what I said and just needed to apologize. SeaTerror (talk) 19:03, September 18, 2013 (UTC)
