Not so good of an idea?
Some new Wikia users don't understand how to use a talk page and in some instances, a message wall would be easier to use. Skewb (talk) 05:09, October 1, 2015 (UTC)
 * Then I shall point them to Help:Talk pages. For my purposes, having a talk page is much easier to manage. Message walls make users deprived of the full edit box, they have a miniature area for messages, users cannot place edit summaries, it's difficult to find old posts, it's hard to customize, and I can't have proper threaded replies. For these reasons, I'm going to be making the switch for now.

Request
Hi, I'm an admin at the Gegege no Kitaro Wiki, Can you tell me where to ask to help these two users: http://gegegenokitaro.wikia.com/wiki/User_talk:Still_doll85 http://gegegenokitaro.wikia.com/wiki/User_talk:AnimeCat245 to be promoted to admins and breuruocrats.User:Animaltamer709:36, October 2, 2015 (UTC)
 * Hey - so, since you don't have bureaucratic rights, which means you can promote other people, you can make an adoption request for the wiki, and Staff will promote you, then you can promote others.

Color Coding
Hey, sorry to bother you, but you forgot to color my name on the Mario Kart Wii Wiki.
 * Alright, I'll get right to that.

Talk Page
Why did you decide to use a talk page because when I message somebody and add the signature they receive it but when they message me back and add the signature I don't receive a notification of a new message. Also why did you close that thread all I told you was that was a cool signature did I say something wrong? User:Maurice.136 (talk) 13:35, October 3, 2015 (UTC)
 * Talk pages are usually for advanced users... the reason I don't reply on your page is because then the whole conversation is not kept in one place. So in the future, people would have to keep flipping back and forth between me messaging you on my wall, and me responding on yours. And I closed that thread because users were responding to it with off-topic comments.
 * I am a advanced user though message wall than also how is life in the United States of America and in the state of New Jersey :D User:Maurice.136 (talk) 14:16, October 3, 2015 (UTC)
 * Well, advanced as in... it takes a little more effort to use it for communication, but it's worth it. As for life, it's going well!

So how long will you use the talk page do you plan to ever switch to message wall. User:Maurice.136 (talk) 16:50, October 3, 2015 (UTC)
 * Not sure, but thus far... I like using this.

Ban
WHAT WAS THAT FOR!!!!????-Crazy dave222
 * You were spamming the chat with blank messages. Need I say more?
 * It wasn't like I was going to continue!!!!-Crazy dave222
 * It doesn't matter, you still are going to have to wait for the ban to expire.

This wiki has an oddly inconsistant punishment system-Crazy dave222
 * How so?

I've known people to not be punished for worse than that, and for people to be punished more harshly than that for things that aren't as bad. - Crazy dave222
 * Community Central has a certain set of rules, one of them not to spam the chat. Our rules and punishments are consistent, and we made sure that in your case, we took the proper actions.

I stand by that. This wiki's punishment is inconsistant. -Crazy dave222
 * Fine then, you are willing to think what you want. I can't change your views...

Admin
mind making me a admin at the Lennyface wiki>

-whyareyoureadingthis posted the above
 * Sorry, I do not have the powers to do that. File an adoption request.

Just an FYI...
I'm not sure if Staff will really like how your blocking of your message wall is done, considering it blocks the ad on the side for logged out users. Might want to fix that, me thinks it counts as a ToU vio (though I won't complain if Staff allowed it).

Just thought I'd let you know. :) --MichiRecRoom (talk) 07:33, October 4, 2015 (UTC)
 * No ads appear in message walls, if I remember correctly, even when logged out. But I'd expect it still can be considered a ToU violation in regards to 'modifying' (blocking out) the sidebar.
 * I thought the same, but when I checked the page via incognito mode, an ad loaded. So yes, ads do load on message walls when logged out. --MichiRecRoom (talk) 07:47, October 4, 2015 (UTC)
 * And so it does! I was looking at the user profiles (silly me!)

It's not a violation, and it's fine. It's my personal space. You think I didn't thoroughly review the ToU?
