User:RansomTime/talk/4

User on DK Wiki
Hi. SunXia is harassing me on DK wiki. No active admins right now to solve anything, could you take a look? Also he is talking about me with other users on chat and Godisme is allowing it.


 * You don't need to spam this around to everyone that has the means to deal with it. VSTF won't deal with issues that are up to the local admins. Rappy 01:37, September 26, 2011 (UTC)


 * I'm not spamming it. I left it to an admin and a VSTF.


 * Tech, I am not "allowing" anything. I have no control over what Sun does on other wikis. She is a grown woman, I cannot control her. I have told all users to back down from the situation, including you. The only wiki I can enforce anything on is here though. VSTF nor myself can help in this situation, contact staff if you feel it is such an issue.--
 * Neither of them can do what you're wanting. Saying the same thing on several users' pages is spamming. Take it up with local admins. That's the only thing you can do about it. Rappy 01:41, September 26, 2011 (UTC)
 * That's what you always say to do. Why can't you just help? You guys seem to just throw all issues into staff instead of finding a speedy resolution.

I harassed nobody, I saw two member that were still upsetting each other and I basically told the people to take a step back and sleep on it and move on and then I got threats!! Bad Sun!! SunXia  (Chat)  01:43, September 26, 2011 (UTC)

From what I saw, Sun didn't harass anybody, she simply gave a recommendation. You blew things up. And VSTF don't handle local issues, they take care of spam and vandalism. Special:Contact it, and for the love of Din, please stop going to other wikis to try to ruin other users. –  Jä zz  i  01:46, September 26, 2011 (UTC)

Seriously all of you go away. I left a message here and that's it.

I told you both to sleep on it and move on, seriously move on!! SunXia  (Chat)  01:48, September 26, 2011 (UTC)

Tech: There is nothing I or anyone other than staff can do. I have no global rights and VSTF can only handle spam and vandalism. If you feel you have been harassed, contact staff as they are the only ones who can help in this case. All: Discussion over. Resolve this peacefully or return to your wikis. This situation has gotten out of hand. No more comments here.--
 * It looks like the drama pot's sufficiently boiled - I'll leave this to staff to deal with. Tech - there's no restrictions about who responds on my talk page if they have relevant info --  Random Time  05:55, September 26, 2011 (UTC)

Message Wall
Hey Random -- I saw your comment on the Message Wall blog post. Thanks for the calm assessment. :) Some of the things you mentioned will be there for the limited release next week, and everything else will be figured out during the limited release period. There are a lot of "hacks" that people have needed to use because of the way talk pages work -- like instructions at the top for how people should use talk pages -- and we may not need those with the new system. We've got time built in to the process so that we can figure out those details.

What you said in your last paragraph about the instant hate is very true, and frustrating for development, because sometimes it's hard to sift the helpful feedback from the rest. I appreciate your thoughtful comments. -- Danny (talk ) 19:54, September 26, 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks - it is true that new users often don't understand how talk pages work - and I'm happy you're addressing it, I just hope you manage to come up with a solution that pleases all parties. The negative feedback comment is something I've become more frustrated with as time goes on - as genuine negative feedback has a danger of being overlooked if every single feature gets an onslaught of bad comments. Glad you've got time to figure out the details --  Random Time  20:04, September 26, 2011 (UTC)

Ban
My ban is up, so can I be unbanned from the chat now? Ermacpunk15 9-26-11 4:48 (UTC)
 * No --  Random Time  21:03, September 29, 2011 (UTC)

I did it again
Hey Randomtime, I did it again. More things I thought of earlier and more things I felt needed to be said. I can only hope the staff will read/is reading/read them. Lancer1289 20:26, September 27, 2011 (UTC)

Forum Categories
Hi, I categorized Forum:Support Requests and Forum:General Discussion under "Wikia Forums", because before they were under a non-existing category. I tried to make them under the respective categories (Support Requests and General Discussion) but that way they will show up themselves among their threads, correct it if I did it wrong.

Calling people idiots
Hi Randomtime. Noticed you called everyone that signed the first section of Forum:Message Wall - A Simple List Of Names an idiot. Care to expand? I signed that, and I feel pretty insulted--Acer4666 02:35, September 30, 2011 (UTC)


 * He did not mean to offend, forgive the walrus.--
 * Godisme is putting words in my mouth. Anyone who judges a feature without seeing it is indeed an idiot in my opinion --  Random Time  05:50, September 30, 2011 (UTC)
 * I don't need to be stabbed to realise I don't want to be stabbed. On this website, I have found that change is bad, and in many cases unnecessary. Especially as once it has gone live, they will never pull it back even if it severely affects the functionality of the wikis (take admin dashboard as an example). I've nothing against the idea of the feature, but I am strongly against the way Wikia makes changes--Acer4666 08:54, September 30, 2011 (UTC)

Help me out
This user by the name of Gumballamiyumineeds to be blocked.I tried to contact local admins but nobody did anything.he is cursing out everyone,always bullying people and is giving just about every user a hate message on their talk page.I want her to be blocked because she won't leave me alone.

Chat
It's been a while. I often need help on things and can't go to chat here because you Kickbanned me for flodding a month or two ago. Can you please lift it? Lordofpyrus 1:47 P.M. PST Oct. 2nd, 2011
 * As it was almost exactly a month ago, I'll unblock you on the 4th --  Random Time  21:06, October 2, 2011 (UTC)

Whatsit88
I'm sorry if I'm bothering you or posting this in the wrong spot...but you know that user that you told 4pinkbear to tell you about if he started harrassing us again? He asked my friend to KILL ME IN RL!!!! Here's some archives from 4pinkbear's talkpage on the Gardevioirisawesome Wiki:

stop doing that bad stuff to my wiki! all i want is to be in peace on deathclan wiki, ok?! why do u have to ruin it, you asshole?!

Whatsit88 21:12, October 2, 2011 (UTC)

i dont believe u didnt hack into my wiki. can u at least unblock me from deathclan wiki? its punishment enough that i was blocked from warriors rpg wiki, but ur friend wildstorm is such an asshole.

Whatsit88 22:00, October 2, 2011 (UTC)

'''thanks for trying. by the way do u know wildstorm in real life? can u kill wild, hack into wild's account and unban me? '''

Whatsit88 22:05, October 2, 2011 (UTC)

'''people who steal other people's wikis should die! can u at least get wild sent to jail? '''

Whatsit88 22:08, October 2, 2011 (UTC)

Please highly note the stuff in bold. I'm sorry if this sounds to extreme, but I would like a globel ban. He has constantly hurt many wikis, and threatened to kill mulitple people. I just want to keep my friends safe. -- Amp and Red Bull=Wild Will End You 23:17, October 2, 2011 (UTC)

VSTF wiki
Hi, im blocked on the VSTF wiki and im not sure why. Can you unblock me? TheBen10Mazter ( T - B -C) 19:30, October 3, 2011 (UTC)

I don't understand
You blocked my IP on degrassi wikia, and put reason for it as "vandalism" But i don't understand, what did i vandalise, I mean i haven't editied any pages in weeks. 74.100.98.41 22:39, October 5, 2011 (UTC)
 * Your last logged out edit, prehaps - logged in, your last edit was a few hours ago --  Random Time  22:43, October 5, 2011 (UTC)
 * I meant edit on an article, I just comment and that's just about it but I haven't vandalized anything so I don't understand why would I be blocked without warning of any sort. 74.100.98.41 22:48, October 5, 2011 (UTC)example
 * I'd like to discuss this with an admin on Degrassi - but there don't seem to have been any on this evening. The report that I got that lead me to investigate you was related to this chat message - as well as a note that you'd been blocked before and had evaded it - when looking at other accounts on your IP address, there was one account that has been disabled globally and quite a few offensive usernames that you've clearly created just for trolling - and so I made the call to block your IP on the wiki. If there's any information I haven't heard from your side, feel free to ask me here - looking at the data I have available, it looks like you often use alternate accounts to troll people. --  Random Time  23:02, October 5, 2011 (UTC)

No, I don't troll. I'm active user of the wikia and i do go their to talk to friends. The exact user who gave you that report has used mutiple accounts as well. He has been block mutiple times for the same offense and recided minmal punishment. The message I left him in the chat was because he posted my picture just to annoy me. I have mutiple screen shots of that same user insulting me and others (this for example ) I don't see why i should be the only one to be punished for something i no longer contiue to do(trolling). But people like Drayden(2KE) get away with it Satans Little Helper 23:12, October 5, 2011 (UTC)

I've already faced punishment for my actions, for that comment i left, he and i were kicked for the chat, for the comments i made to others i was blocked for a week, and just got off that block Satans Little Helper 23:17, October 5, 2011 (UTC)
 * I think the best solution here would be to unblock you - and to leave this in the hand of the admins at the degrassi wiki - as it's not my role to settle disputes like this. Sorry for the bother --  Random Time  23:22, October 5, 2011 (UTC)

Can you help fight this vandalisim on my wiki please.

Monobook - signature drop down menu
Hi RandomTime,

You had left a message several weeks ago about thinking about a fix to make my signature drop down menu be likewise on monobook as oasis skin, but i haven't heard back from you. Have you given it a thought?
 * I asked our resident expert - and he said that it'd be complicated to import. It's quite annoying - but as only a few people on Wikia as a whole (quite a lot of central regulars use it, but we're far from the norm) use monobook, I won't ask you to change anything --  Random Time  20:34, October 9, 2011 (UTC)

The Degrassi Wiki - A Certain User
Hello Randomtime! I'm Camille,an admin from the Degrassi wiki.It's nice to meet you. :) I don't know if you are fully aware of the user Closer 2my DreamsHe has been abusing multiple accounts and constantly saying offensive things to other users.Myself and other admins have blocked him before but he somehow keeps coming back.I was told by a user that you could block IP addresses in a certain way.If it is possible,could you please ban his IP address permantely? Thank you for your time and I hope to hear from you soon. (: ♥CamilleA05  01:24, October 10, 2011 (UTC)


 * I was in a mutaul argument with mutiple people involved, and you're unfairly singling me out. You banned me for a year because you were simply asked to by others. My previous accounts were banned by sannse already, so i can no longer use those accounts, an IP ban doesn't make a difference because anyone can change their IP.I have screen shots of other users involved insulting me aswelll. It's not fair fo rme to be singled out but Others users have said worse and only been banned for a week. I did write rude stuff on my profile, but i never mentioned anybodies names, nor have was what i said that vulgar. You are spinning the story in you're favor simply because a another user who hates me wants me gone. I'm not saying i don't deserve some sort of a block, but giving me a year because you were asked is unfair. I'm still waiting to hear from another admin who i already asked about the situation. At the most, i deserve 3 or 4 days. And that's really only for Foul language. Satans Little Helper 01:39, October 10, 2011 (UTC)
 * This is not an issue for VSTF. Take it up with Sannse.--
 * Camille: I've put the blocks in, closer2mydreams - it's an administrative decision, so I can't overturn it - please talk to Camille directly, or staff --  Random Time  05:55, October 10, 2011 (UTC)
 * If it's an administrative decision then why put blocks in? And yes i have talked to her directly(and i am currently waiting on sannses reply) She isn't being reasonable, even when i explain what happen. Satans Little Helper 05:59, October 10, 2011 (UTC)
 * I put the blocks in because I was asked to by an admin --  Random Time  06:01, October 10, 2011 (UTC)
 * She just became admin 2 days ago, and it's clearly abuse of her power to block me for 1 year when others were involved in it Santa&#39;s Little Helper 06:04, October 10, 2011 (UTC)

 * After looking at your actions, please contact one of the admins of that wiki on their talk page here, and ask them to see if you need an unblock - I don't know enough about what goes on at that wiki to make a good call, sorry --  Random Time  21:59, October 10, 2011 (UTC)

Can't edit on VSTF Wiki/Vandal
Hey, on the VSTF wiki, I can't edit pages. I would leave this on your talk page there, but I can't even edit that. I really need to have this kid by the name of Thomas Hozempa blocked. He keeps vandalizing Nickelodeon wikis, took over the Crazymutt Wiki to troll its original owner (I assume), and he makes these pointless Wikias that are incredibly vulgar (nothing way too inappropriate, though). One of them (its ID was adventuretime3) was closed a while back.

GojiBob would know a bit about him too, ask him about Thomas if you can. The WonderKat (Talk) 00:14, October 14, 2011 (UTC)

If this is not something for you, sorry about that. I've posted this to Sannse's talk. The WonderKat (Talk) 00:20, October 14, 2011 (UTC)
 * You won't be able to edit the VSTF wiki if your email address isn't confirmed - as far as the user goes, it looks like he has legitimate contributions on a few wikis, so he's not purely a vandal, I'll let Sannse deal with him --  Random Time  06:06, October 14, 2011 (UTC)

User on the Degrassi Wiki
Hey, Randomtime. I'd just like to report a certain user on the Degrassi Wiki. Her initial username was DegrassiLover1234, but after being banned indefinitely a few months ago, she has come back now with different usernames and is trolling our Wiki. Apparently, everytime she refreshes her page she receives a new IP address which is why she is able to come back each and everytime with ease:

"Sigh* camille how stupid you are... who agrees I deserve the most successful troll ever? Also it is pointless to ban and ban and ban me because everytime I refresh a page, I get a new ip adress (list is 50000+) so yea... your wasting your time dumb bitch c:!"

Is there any possible way that she could be hardware banned? Her current username is Lolwhatadumbassc:! . She is disrupting our Wiki and we are quite fed up that we have to deal with her all the damn time. Thank you for your cooperation! EliGObsessed ツ I will be rising from the ground, like a Skyscraper. 01:12, October 26, 2011 (UTC)
 * I'd be happy to look into this for you, if you could help me by providing some more information about this user, and a note from an admin on the wiki that they're happy for me to look into this. Could you please link to the contributions page of all the user accounts she's used, and get me conformation from an admin that they're happy for me to look into it, and block if I can. Thanks --  Random Time  15:46, October 26, 2011 (UTC)


 * I've asked admin CamilleA05 on the Degrassi Wiki and she is more than okay with you looking into it. She also gave me some of DegrassiLover1234's sockpuppet accounts:


 * UKNOWULIKEIT;)UKNOWYOUWANTIT;) MWAHAHAHDL1234IMBACKBITCHES!! LOVEYAADUMBASS!


 * Thank you so much for your cooperation, you're doing us a huge favor. EliGObsessed ツ  I will be rising from the ground, like a Skyscraper. 19:37, October 26, 2011 (UTC)
 * 2 of those accounts have already been rangeblocked by Vegadark, the other 2 shared an IP address, so I've blocked that one. If she comes back let me know and give me contribs links, and I'll try and pin down the range of IP addresses she's coming from a bit further. --  Random Time  11:22, October 27, 2011 (UTC)

There's a user on the Degrassi Wiki that you need to look into, and I see you already have. I also heard that you are the one who can block IP addresses permanently. I am requesting this because he has continously gotten around bans, called people names, insulted people. He even threatened to call my job. Other users feel the same way, and if you go to Sannse's page on here, you'll see that another user has complained to her about this user. He has already had Vanessa Brandon, Vanessa1994, Closer 2my Dreams, Farewell Hakeem blocked. If you need any further information, please leave me a message on my Talk Page. DegrassiForLife 14:53, October 29, 2011 (UTC)DegrassiForLife
 * Any admin may block IP addresses permanently by putting "infinite" in the block length. Due to the drama surrounding Closer 2my Dreams, I'd ask that you contact staff. --  Random Time  15:44, October 29, 2011 (UTC)


 * Already have. The appropriate staff member keeps blocking his names for a year, but he keeps getting around it. The other user I mentioned left Sannse a message on here, but she has yet to respond. Should I ask the appropriate staff member to infintely block him?DegrassiForLife 17:32, October 29, 2011 (UTC)DegrassiForLife

 * So you contact wikia for Team Nimrod. btw. Can I ask bureaucrat on my wiki to do that?
 * Team Nimrod is my personal bot, I don't have the authority to add flags to accounts I do not control, you'll need to start a discussion with the community on your wiki to check if people are ok with you having a bot flagged account --  Random Time  18:36, November 2, 2011 (UTC)
 * OK, I thought that admins of community wikia has "ultimate" rights. You just had control over your own account.

Vulgarity
There's a user on the Degrassi Wiki named EliGObsessed who used the words sucking his dick on a page. Considering there are underage kids on there, I think this comment is highly inappropriate, and something should be done about this user using this phrase/statement.

JS page for signature
Dear RandomTime,

Thanks for replying concerning the signature on drkdragonz66 his talk page.

You are talking about a javascript page for my signature which is automatically protected. Can you be a little more elaborate about this because i am not quite sure how to insert that.

Thanks in advance!


 * Users cannot edit other users' JS files. Also, please don't design a signature that requires it to be on it's own line and/or sign so it's always on it's own line. All they do is take up space. Rappy 16:35, November 14, 2011 (UTC)
