Blocked?
Hey, Randometime, for some odd reason,Vega Dark blocked me! Here's the link: The block was made by VegaDark. I've only made 1 edit so far, and I have NO idea why he blocked me WAY back in July! HenryDuckFan 16:54, August 7, 2011 (UTC)
 * Reason given: Intimidating behaviour/harassment: vandalism
 * Start of block: 21:46, July 8, 2011
 * Expiry of block: 21:46, October 8, 2011
 * Intended blockee: HenryDuckFan
 * Block ID: #7
 * Current IP address: 24.162.219.158
 * you made 4 edits - which look very clearly like trolling to me --  Random Time  23:09, August 6, 2011 (UTC)


 * I've NEVER edited way back in July! And besides, how is there proof of me "vandalising"? P.S Editing talk pages count as edits! HenryDuckFan 16:54, August 7, 2011 (UTC)
 * The edits linked were from your account --  Random Time  16:55, August 7, 2011 (UTC)


 * What do you mean? HenryDuckFan 16:57, August 7, 2011 (UTC)
 * You said you've never edited in July, but those edits were clearly from your account --  Random Time  17:00, August 7, 2011 (UTC)


 * I didn't edit on this WIKI! Spammers left rude comments and edited some of my unprotected articles on one of my Wiki's! HenryDuckFan 17:01, August 7, 2011 (UTC)
 * VegaDark blocked you on the VSTF wiki for the edits above, you're not blocked anywhere else, if you'd like to talk to vega about the block, please do. --  Random Time  17:06, August 7, 2011 (UTC)


 * I don't think he'll even care! =( HenryDuckFan 17:08, August 7, 2011 (UTC)


 * Is it possible that HenryDuckFan, after being asked to "include the error message" just copied a vandal's comment to VSTF wiki with intent to report vandalism on some wiki? This is maybe just a misunderstanding. -- Weas-El ✉  00:59, August 8, 2011 (UTC)


 * That's EXACTLY what I was thinking! I have no idea why you assumed that I was trolling, Randomtime! HenryDuckFan 10:07, August 9, 2011 (UTC)

Your Profile Picture
You probably do not know me, but I highly respect your profile picture. Wonderwalrus 23:59, August 7, 2011 (UTC)
 * There should be more people like you in the world --  Random Time  00:12, August 8, 2011 (UTC)


 * LOL Yeah, I like your profile image too! Who's that character, and what film, book, or show has he appeared in? HenryDuckFan 10:09, August 9, 2011 (UTC)


 * It's Rotor Walrus from sonic the hedgehog --  Random Time  13:21, August 9, 2011 (UTC)


 * Ah! Okay! I knew he may have looked familiar! HenryDuckFan 22:46, August 9, 2011 (UTC)

Spamming Members
Hey, Randomtime, can you please help me? Two users named Dayzy and Beerparty keep harassing me and other members on Happy Wheels Wiki! They also keep spamming articles, and posting hateful comments to newer users! I can't really do anything on the Spam Task Force, so can you please either contact a fellow member, or something? HenryDuckFan 23:19, August 9, 2011 (UTC)
 * Have you spoken to MysticSG, Wafercrisp or Trotterski? They're the admins there, and the people you should talk to if you've got issues with users --  Random Time  23:24, August 9, 2011 (UTC)
 * They won't believe me! They keep saying that I was the one who started everything, even though Dayzy was the one who responded to one SIMPLE comment that I posted way back in May or April on the wiki! HenryDuckFan 20:01, August 10, 2011 (UTC)
 * We're not allowed to intervene in local issues, you're going to have to work things out with your community --  Random Time  20:04, August 10, 2011 (UTC)


 * Well, here's the thing, the admins actually think that insults are opinions! And I'm also banned because they think I don't know anything about facts and opinions, when they're the one's who don't know about the differences between insults and opinions! HenryDuckFan 20:16, August 10, 2011 (UTC)
 * As I've said earlier, we're not allowed to intervene with a decision of an administrator, you may if you'd like them to help, but this isn't anything we're allowed to help you with, sorry. --  Random  Time  20:19, August 10, 2011 (UTC)
 * Okay, I'll see what I can do. Thanks for the polite and resonable response! HenryDuckFan 20:25, August 10, 2011 (UTC)
 * Good luck --  Random Time  20:27, August 10, 2011 (UTC)

Question about sockpoppetry
Would socking be considered as spam or vandal? TheBen10Mazter (Talk -Blog -Contribs) 21:21, August 11, 2011 (UTC)
 * Non malicious sock-puppetry isn't spam or vandalism - that's normally when you tell other people you're doing it (for roleplay wikis - as an example), or use different accounts on different wikis because you want a different username there. Check with the admins of a local wiki for local policy on that. If you're hiding it from other people, then it might be against local policy, and local admins can contact Wikia via Special:Contact if they have those concerns. --  Random Time  21:24, August 11, 2011 (UTC)


 * Wait so if i were to report it at the VSTF channel where would i do that? TheBen10Mazter (Talk -Blog -Contribs) 21:25, August 11, 2011 (UTC)
 * Unless you're reporting a vandal, those kinds of requests should go to staff --  Random Time 


 * Okay thanks. Sorry for the colored text, i by accident copied your signature. TheBen10Mazter (Talk -Blog -Contribs) 21:27, August 11, 2011 (UTC)

Recent Changes Patroller?
So I'm a recent changes patroller? For that I have to be an admin here.--R2-47 :) 13:52, August 13, 2011 (UTC)


 * Central just got two new admins, we aren't in need of any more. You also do not need to be an admin to patrol RecentChanges.

Adopt
How long does it take for a reply back from "Wikia Adoption"? Mand&#39;alor Skyobiliviator The Devastator 01:45, August 14, 2011 (UTC)


 * Adoption requests are reviewed in the order they're on the page by 3 staff members when they have time. However, Wikia is holding meetings next week, so adoptions aren't likely to be reviewed until the week after.
 * But I wanted to be an admin in this wiki as soon as pausible, this wiki need alot of page deleted! Mand&#39;alor Skyobiliviator The Devastator 02:50, August 14, 2011 (UTC)


 * You will have to wait. In the meantime, report any spam or vandalism to VSTF--
 * You guys don't know how importent this is, in fact, I need you all's help! The wiki is the Republic Commando wiki! Help me when you can! *Sigh* :( Mand&#39;alor Skyobiliviator The Devastator 03:27, August 14, 2011 (UTC)
 * It doesn't matter - that won't speed up your adoption. All you can do is wait.
 * Ugh....*Singing* Waiting....Mand&#39;alor Skyobiliviator The Devastator 03:39, August 14, 2011 (UTC)
 * Sorry, it's beyond any of our control - you might want to work on other aspects of the wiki that don't need admin access in the meantime --  Random Time  13:25, August 14, 2011 (UTC)

Block
Hello, I'm a new Wikia user. Could you help me? You see, I'm at a library, using a public computer. When I try to go and edit on Bakugan Wiki, it says another user was blocked there, so the computer ip is blocked. Artemisblossom 01:58, August 19, 2011 (UTC)
 * Hey, there's not that much I can do about this, as I'm not an administrator there - the autoblock will expire tomorrow, so waiting would be the best option. If you can't wait, you might want to contact one of the administrators on their talk page, and ask them to remove the block --  Random Time  02:07, August 19, 2011 (UTC)

Question
Are you also User:Team Nimrod? TheBen10Mazter (Talk -Blog -Contribs) 02:02, August 19, 2011 (UTC)
 * Have a look at User:Team Nimrod--
 * (edit conflict) Yes --  Random Time  02:07, August 19, 2011 (UTC)


 * Wait, TN constantly smokes? Is this about you? TheBen10Mazter  (Talk -Blog -Contribs)  02:17, August 19, 2011 (UTC)
 * It's a joke --  Random Time  10:42, August 19, 2011 (UTC)

Connection
I think that my connection is better but I'm not sure so could you please enable chat on the conspiracy wiki(if you're not scared of walruses and vikings of course) and tell me if im stil spamming in/out notices?
 * You should be fine now, I'll let you know if you're not --  Random Time  11:00, August 19, 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks, --

Bug?
Hi! Is it a bug or not? Messages don't seem to be sent, so I refreshed the page, then Chat keeps on saying "Sorry, you do not have permission to chat on this wiki. If you think this was a mistake or would like to be reconsidered, please contact an administrator.". What does that mean? Is it a bug? Or is Chat under maintenance? -- 14:48, August 20, 2011 (UTC)


 * You've kickbanned by RT. Refer here, Special:Log/rights. --TheBen10Mazter (Talk -Blog -Contribs) 14:50, August 20, 2011 (UTC)
 * Banned users can't chat (that would defeat the point) - as Ben has so kindly pointed out, you were banned from chat for your rude behaviour --  Random Time  14:54, August 20, 2011 (UTC)


 * RT, are you joking?
 * -- 14:56, August 20, 2011 (UTC)


 * If he was you would still be in chat right now. --TheBen10Mazter (Talk -Blog -Contribs) 14:58, August 20, 2011 (UTC)
 * I'm serious, I don't kick on a whim, your behaviour was rude and obnoxious --  Random Time  14:59, August 20, 2011 (UTC)


 * I was completely unaware of that.. When will this expire anyways? 3 Days? One Week? Five Months?
 * -- 14:56, August 20, 2011 (UTC)
 * A week should be sufficient, I'm away for a couple of weeks, so feel free to contact a chatmod after a week and ask to be let back in. --  Random Time  15:04, August 20, 2011 (UTC)

Hacked
Someone hacked into my account and I got kickbanned! can you help?Reviewportal77 17:38, August 20, 2011 (UTC)


 * Reviewportal, stop messaging everyone you can find about this issue. Change your password and be done with it. There is nothing we can do to help you.--

I was banned too, it was only a joke! i don't even know the chat rules, or if ther are any! help!

Template:GCT
Can you help me? Link. I cannot get it to show on my sandbox for testing and for some reason it is not showing. Thanks.
 * It looks like the code uses a switch, and because you havn't specified what "mode" it is, then it's defaulting to "Error: Mode unspecified" - I don't know what you're intending to do here - and it might be a good idea to contact whoever wrote the code initially for help --  Random Time  16:43, September 10, 2011 (UTC)

Hello. I was wondering where I can find the star icon for Chat Moderators. I want to upload the image to one of the wiki's I edit.

Why? I seriously have no idea this time. TheBen10Mazter (Talk -Blog -Contribs) 23:29, September 11, 2011 (UTC)

 * Sorry- but i never got a warning- can you give me one more chance? I wont annoy.  --TheBen10Mazter  (Talk -Blog -Contribs)  23:30, September 11, 2011 (UTC)

CSS Help
Hi. I need some help with my Global.css on the ANT Farm Wiki. I want it to be able on blog posts, a different color from the rest and say @admin. I am working on it, but every time is a fail. And you are good with this stuff, so can you help? Here is the link: |1 Thanks.
 * The earliest I could look at this is tomorrow evening (sorry, I'm just about to go to sleep) - why not try the forums? - I'm sure someone will be able to help out there --  Random Time  22:57, September 12, 2011 (UTC)
 * Do you have time to do it now? I have been trying almost all day.
 * I wouldn't know how to make it say @admin, but you can highlight comments easily, have a look at User:Randomtime/StaffHighlight.css for the way it's done here --  Random Time  18:32, September 13, 2011 (UTC)
 * Bah this is something a former admin at my wiki devolped it sorta a craze now, he means adding an image to the comment via css the image having the words "@admins" I can write this up for you if you send me a list of the admins and the colors you want --Tama 63  18:44, September 13, 2011 (UTC)

Under the search bar, how did you guys add in the check box, "Search all of Wikia"? Thanks. TheBen10Mazter (Talk -Blog -Contribs)  21:43, September 16, 2011 (UTC)

Spam Filter and VSTF Wiki Problem
I was editing MediaWiki:Oasis-notification-youhavenewmessages, and it was blocked by the spam filter. This is the full message, exactly as it appeared.

The page you wanted to save was blocked by the VSTF's spam filter. This is probably caused by a blacklisted pagename or text. ( Call #1 ) The following link, text or pagename is what triggered our spam filter: You have $1. (Who's it from?). If you think this is wrong, please contact the VSTF here. Please provide a copy of this message when reporting any problem. Return to MediaWiki:Oasis-notification-youhavenewmessages.

I do not see how that triggered the filter.

You would think that I would have reported this properly, but when I tried to, it said I didn't have permission to edit pages!

ROADS! Roads! (Don't forget it!) 13:27, September 21, 2011 (UTC)

 * Scratch that, you are blocked there but the logs dont show who or why you were blocked.--


 * Made the change. That filter will not be removed, but the mediawiki entry is updated on your wiki. -- sulfur 13:48, September 21, 2011 (UTC)


 * Thanks. I don't know why I was blocked. All I did before was report a spam filter message for "User talk:Wikia".
