Thanks for protecting that ED! -- Manticore File:Fleet Admiral.jpg|25 ^{Talk | CSV} 14:33, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

Hey, thanks for making it! its a well written policy. --ED_(talk)^(gaming) 14:35, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

One of the best pieces of damn legislature that I've ever seen. If Manticore wrote the U.S. Constitution, we wouldn't have a problem today. Cheers, RelentlessRecusant 'o the Halopedia Team File:Fleet Admiral.jpg|25 ^TALK • _SPEAK 14:37, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

Well I'm honoured you think that! :) *tears well in eye* :P

It was a pleasure working with the admin team to develop it.

Manticore File:Fleet Admiral.jpg|25 ^{Talk | CSV} 14:50, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

HI there

Whats going on? i got unbanned finally and i checked your page out... i want to apologize for acting the way i did, if i knew you were some part of the armed forces, i would have never acted the way i did... and you say you have a myspace? if you want to add me, my URL is myspace.com/jts666 i AM a satanist and my page has been known to make people think diffrently about me, but o well... but once again sorry for acting like an ideot and hope to hear from you soon...

Oh, its really quite alright. Not a big deal. --ED_(talk)^(gaming) 22:25, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

Call to vote

The FanArt Committee has several images awaiting your vote, please come check it out and render your opinion as soon as you can. Thank you.

-- Donut THX 1138 ^[Comm] 20:13, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

There's already a 3 person majority on all the images, they just need to be archived. --ED_(talk)^(gaming) 22:26, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

Categorization

I noticed that on the Onan page, you used the syntax [[Category:UNSC]], rather than [[Category:UNSC]] I know it doesn't really make a difference, but I'm weird and obsess about it, and I would prefer if you didn't put a space there, so it's the same as with the actual category, since there's never a space after the prefix. Thanks! g^üé_ߣ^¥-π_éҐ^∫ø_ñ¥-^†ħ_îИ^g¥ 00:55, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

That's a rather strange request...but if you wish, I'll try to remember to do that. --ED_(talk)^(gaming) 01:11, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

Hang on, this doesn't create two different categories does it? They're all still in the same one? -- Manticore File:Fleet Admiral.jpg|25 ^{Talk | CSV} 04:19, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

No, they both go to the same category, its just a matter of syntax. I don't even think you would know the difference unless you were editing an article and noticed the space. --ED_(talk)^(gaming) 04:30, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

Ahh OK. I usually remove the space if I notice it while editing, but I don't really look for it. By the way, nice work on the Tactical Condition article! -- Manticore File:Fleet Admiral.jpg|25 ^{Talk | CSV} 04:34, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

Heh... strange... well, that's what happens when an active editor is OCD. =P g^üé_ߣ^¥-π_éҐ^∫ø_ñ¥-^†ħ_îИ^g¥ 04:58, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

Your Bot

Don't worry, i'll still work on your bot. I'll just type with my left hand, i'm making it in notepad, so i can take my time and type one handed. It will be done, no worries sir! Although, i need to get the Polish tech support off their lazy butts and get them to fix some of Wikia's coding and improve the bot work.

-- Donut THX 1138 ^[Comm] 04:08, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

hah ok. Don't worry about it too much though (I'm sure you won't) its not direly needed. --ED_(talk)^(gaming) 04:10, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

wow

Nice work on all the recent articles!

over and out, --SPARTAN-077^(Talk)File:char_riza.jpg|40 12:48, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

Thanks very much, its nice to know that someone notices these things. --ED_(talk)^(gaming) 22:01, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

Civilian Stuff

All this New Mombasa civilian stuff is cool. I never paid that much attention to the environment. --Dragonclaws^(talk) 21:23, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, I never really noticed any of it, either until I got H2 Vista, I think it adds a whole new layer of realism to the game. And rest assured, I'm far from done adding civilian stuff from H2. There are things everywhere I didnt ever notice before. --ED_(talk)^(gaming) 22:03, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

Halopedia Warz

I heard aboot your idea from RR--sounds really cool. I think if all the admins are fine with it we should start workin' on shovin' it togatha, eh? Also, apparently you emailed him aboot it, but I haven't been gettin' any of your emails anymore... I'm back, ya know. =D BTW, good work on the new Mombasa articles... /me hugs ED and H2 Vista. g^üé_ߣ^¥-π_éҐ^∫ø_ñ¥-^†ħ_îИ^g¥ 21:37, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, I havent emailed anything to anyone since you got back, but if you support it, that makes all 4 of us. As for H2 Vista, I'm far from hugging it right now...its having a rather strange problem that is preventing me from getting on multiplayer! But yes it does give good screenshots. --ED_(talk)^(gaming) 22:06, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

Oh, so that was before I got back... ok. As for H2 Vista, I was hugging it, and I was hugging you, so... not sure how that works without you and H2 Vista necessarily hugging, but somehow it does. =P So... can you join the IRC, if you aren't bizzy, and we can get to work on it, an' stuff? g^üé_ߣ^¥-π_éҐ^∫ø_ñ¥-^†ħ_îИ^g¥ 22:11, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

Well, thanks very much! --ED_(talk)^(gaming) 05:18, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

...

You just completely pwned me when you cleaned up Liwitoni Station. Also, we should make an article for all the other stations that are mentioned in the announcements on Terminal (map), just for completency stufflez, even if they aren't playable or anything. I'm also going to make articles on Sector B, Sector A, the Docks, and the City Centre from the road signs on Metropolis, so feel free to help clean those up and/or add info. =D g^üé_ߣ^¥-π_éҐ^∫ø_ñ¥-^†ħ_îИ^g¥ 02:37, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

I finished the city centre article as you sent me this message! OK, I'll work on the terminal sections while you do the city sections. --ED_(talk)^(gaming) 02:46, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

Hmm... are you sure that's the city centre? 'Cause it says "city centre - 2 km" and you'd expect the city centre to be sorta like where the Space Elevator is, and all that stuff... I think the place with the tank that was killed by the Scarab is somewhere else, possibly part of Sector B, since the exits on either end of the NM 105 E are Sector B... or that might be laziness on Bungie's part, so... hmm.... I'm playing through Metropolis right now, so I think I'll start over and look at all the signs in a minute... I just finished fightin' in the vicinity of Terrabb. g^üé_ߣ^¥-π_éҐ^∫ø_ñ¥-^†ħ_îИ^g¥ 03:01, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, the signs at the beginning of the bridge give the same distances as the ones next to the Tterrab building. I just as soon assume the ones at the beginning of the highway are right since the signs inside sector B say it is 1km away. --ED_(talk)^(gaming) 03:47, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, I went back and realized "hey, at the end of the bridge THAT's sector B, and at the beginning it says sector B is 1 kilometer away, the length of the bridge!" So, if you haven't changed everything to reflect that, I'll go ahead and do so. =D g^üé_ߣ^¥-π_éҐ^∫ø_ñ¥-^†ħ_îИ^g¥ 04:06, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

Screenshots

Hey, can you take a good quality screenshot of the Mombasa Transit Authority Route Map on Terminal? Right now we have a pretty crappy quality version at File:Terminalmap.PNG, so an update would be mucho appreciato. =D g^üé_ߣ^¥-π_éҐ^∫ø_ñ¥-^†ħ_îИ^g¥ 05:00, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

Ok. Just a second. --ED_(talk)^(gaming) 05:01, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

File:MombasaMap.jpg|300

How about that? I can't find the image in the map editor, and the light that lights it up in the level flickers, so i'm not sure if this one is much better. If you like I cant try to get the Blind Skull then take the pic so its bigger.--ED_(talk)^(gaming) 05:07, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

That is MUCH better... you had perfect timing between the flickers. But the Blind Skull wouldn't help, since it's in multiplayer... regardless, it's still a MUCH better picture. =D g^üé_ߣ^¥-π_éҐ^∫ø_ñ¥-^†ħ_îИ^g¥ 05:12, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

Well, technically I have that free Games for Windows Live Gold trial for another 4 or 5 days, but so far I haven't had any problems logging on or connecting to games. JesseZinVT 03:57, 1 July 2007 (UTC)

Ok. According to tech support, I can't even log in unless I have a gold account, which I'll probably wait to get for a few months. --ED_(talk)^(gaming) 02:54, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

This is me giving my official approval stamp to both ideas. --ED_(talk)^(gaming) 02:59, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

Yes sir. However, I think I'll be unprotecting the Sig policy as per wikia:Protection...what do you think? I'd like to abide by policy. :-) Cheers, RelentlessRecusant 'o the [[halowikia:Halopedia Team ^TALK • _SPEAK 03:01, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

Why? its a policy page. --ED_(talk)^(gaming) 03:04, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

Well, it hasn't been vandalized before, and I tend to like en.WP's and Wookieepedia's policy of not protecting even policy pages. Anyways, we'll protect it then...sah. :-) Cheers, RelentlessRecusant 'o the [[halowikia:Halopedia Team ^TALK • _SPEAK 03:10, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

Halopedia has always protected its policy pages. Its been a triadition since before we moved to wikia; my view is that policy pages on any wiki aren't part of the wiki and tend to get modified for the entire community to suit one user's agenda constantly. --ED_(talk)^(gaming) 03:18, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

My apologies, sir. Sorry for the consternation. Cheers, RelentlessRecusant 'o the [[halowikia:Halopedia Team ^TALK • _SPEAK 03:32, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

You said you could think of uses for a bot--care to share any? I'm doin' stuff with images right now, but I wanna help oot as much as possible with mah new botz stuffz. =D g^üé_ߣ^¥-π_éҐ^∫ø_ñ¥-^†ħ_îИ^g¥ 23:09, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

Well for starters, every screenshot from Halo, Halo 2 and Halo 3 needs proper copyright information. Bungie doesn't take kindly to copyright infringement. --ED_(talk)^(gaming) 23:32, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

Hmm... not quite sure how easily that could be done... 'cause I'd have to find a way to make it ONLY do stufflez to screenshots, rather than to every image, like I've been doing... an' stuff. g^üé_ߣ^¥-π_éҐ^∫ø_ñ¥-^†ħ_îИ^g¥ 23:34, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

Use the screenshot subcats in the Image Categories, I'm pretty sure most/all of them contain only screenshots. We have a lot of images that have to be categorized manually, I'm sorry to say, but a bot can't do that...--ED_(talk)^(gaming) 23:37, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

Well, I'm not sure the easiest way to make the bot only do stuff to things in those categories... meh, I'll figure it out.

If thats not working, you could also program the bot to just look for typos in articles. changing "teh"s to "the"s and "jackal"s to "Jackal"s. --ED_(talk)^(gaming) 03:52, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

Shutoff

Well, the bot only takes like ten minutes to do each task it's assigned, and I'm always here to turn it on, so I could shut it off, but I suppose I could put a block button there, just in case... =D g^üé_ߣ^¥-π_éҐ^∫ø_ñ¥-^†ħ_îИ^g¥ 03:47, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

RR put a link in there for the same effect, so its all good. Just a matter of cosmetics now, which doesn't matter to me, really. --ED_(talk)^(gaming) 03:53, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
