how come you didn't add cchristianTP to the list, since he's the alternate contact? Phil.e. ^{[Talk to me]} 15:52, 26 June 2007 (UTC)

Op + Ryan = GoOd

Just low level or what ever it takes to ban some one, but i'd take just enough to kick. I think i am needed because im simply on alot and there is never any op around when you need one and i cant find on #Wikia, there is 2 poeple who should be banned right now and there is no one stoping them. I'll do what ever it takes to become an op.--UNSCoH Colonel "Running Riot" Ryan BAM 05:56, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

Use the command listed on the page to see who has op access, that way you know who to look for. I've set it so all freenode staff do as well, so if there's any trouble just join #freenode and ask them to step in. For what its worth, I see you on quite a bit (meaning, there is an op on :P). -- Manticore ^{Talk | CSV} 15:45, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

I didnt know about the #Freenod but i did go looking and it was awhile before the ops alrighty in the channel finnaly anwserd me. Myabe if i could just kick i think thats only level 10, that doesnt sound like to much but then again i dont really know for sure.--UNSCoH Colonel "Running Riot" Ryan BAM 16:40, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

Due to recent campaigning by you and JWR, I feel that it would be inappropriate to give you op access. Maybeh latar, tho, so this isn't a definite "no not evar nublol!!1!" --NOTASTAFF GPT_(talk)^(eating) 21:54, 7 August 2007 (UTC)

Alternate Contact

Though the position is basically useless, wouldn't it be more appropriate to have another Halopedia admin as alternate contact? -- Manticore ^{Talk | CSV} 15:47, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

The raccoon and I have discussed this, and we both feel, for various reasons which I am too lazy (and too bizzy) to go over here, that it is better if he is the alternate. I have asked him to make Relentless the alternate if he becomes contact, although I see no reason why I would quit. --NOTASTAFF GPT_(talk)^(eating) 21:54, 7 August 2007 (UTC)

New Ops

Hello everyone!

Just a short message to let the other senior ops and the rest of the Halopedia community know that recently forgottenlord and ChristineV have been opped by Relentless.

As an addition to these new recruits, I myself have opped Phil_E, James-001, and HaloDude. All new ops have an access level of 10.

Regards,

Manticore ^{Talk | CSV} 13:25, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

Oh, and Jack_Phoenix has been re-opped. I believe RR opped him a while back, but he has since been removed. Anyways, I've restored him because he's often on the channel, and is usually found in #wikia by users needing assistance on #halopedia. -- Manticore ^{Talk | CSV} 13:26, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

Phil_E has done things rather badly in the past, and I feel that we should wait before giving him op access--Relentless apparently agrees, having been the one to remove him from the list. James-001 is rarely around, and... no offense, HaloDude, as you haven't done anyfink wrong (as far as I can tell ;D =P ), I'm not sure if you're the best for this position... Jack_Phoenix definitely shouldn't be on the list (he has banned me from channels without reason, and I see no reason why he would not do that in #halopedia), and maybeh ChristineV should be removed, as she's only on the list 'cause she's dating Relentless... ;D =P But forgottenlord, IMO, is a responsible user who has helped us oot in the past wif his op access AND wif logs, so I see no reason to remove him, although his addition may have been premature. --NOTASTAFF GPT_(talk)^(eating) 21:54, 7 August 2007 (UTC)

You were banned from #swfanon for impostering me SquishyVic and making people believe that I and Vic were acting badly on #swfanon. I have talked with Vic about your ban and he agrees with me. If you want to, you can go talk to Vic about this. However, I do not tolerate impostering under any circumstances. I've had enough with Johnny the Vandal + his sockpuppets impostering me. So yes, there is a good reason for bans; I don't ban "just for fun".

How Phil_E has done things badly? He's a nice and helpful user who certainly has no intention to do harm. Everyone makes mistakes. It's life.

Adminship in general shouldn't be a big deal. Channel operator status shouldn't be either. #swfanon has several non-admins who are channel ops. There's no reason for them not to have op status. In my humble opinion, op status is given to users who are helpful and often on IRC. They may not always be wiki admins - and why should they be? If a wiki admin is rarely on IRC, but another user is often on, why should the wiki admin have op status and the non-admin shouldn't?

After all, I'm just a human and I do make mistakes. If you think there's something I've done wrong, please leave me a note about it on my Central talk page. --Jack Phoenix _(Contact) 11:06, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

H*bad

by usuing /msg ChanServ ACCESS #halopedia LIST on IRC, i found out that H*Bad is also an Op, but i dunno how to add him to the list kuz i dunno if heez high level or low level or what....

File:1 I am saving up for this -1.jpg Guitarplayer001^{Contact MeSee where I have rocked out!} 05:02, 14 August 2007 (UTC)

H*bad is not an op. His access level is -1, meaning he will be automatically de-opped by ChanServ (if SECUREOPS wasn't on) if another op tried to op him. Sorry to sound technical, but basically, H*bad isn't an op. -- Manticore ^{Talk | CSV} 08:16, 14 August 2007 (UTC)

Sexual References

I assume it would be okay to discuss it in a general scientific way? Some stuff about Halo aliens does come up every now and again. It can be both on topic and respectful. --Dragonclaws^(talk) 05:26, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

Simon rjh

I'm requesting low-level op status because I am often on the channel when there are no other ops (possibly due to time-zones), and there have been occasions when spammers have come onto the channel and there is nothing we can do except /ignore. I am tolerant towards new users and give several warnings before requesting assistance from an op (if there is one on the channel). I will not abuse my position, only kicking when necessary and banning when there is no other alternative. If you feel I should not be an op, or it is too early, please tell what I need to do to meet the criteria and I will try my best to achieve it. Thank you. --General simon rjh 21:19, 24 February 2008 (UTC)

I'm ok with this. Other admins? -- Manticore (talk) 09:55, 1 March 2008 (UTC)

I'm actually glad somebody has requested this, we need a Halopedian to monitor the IRC when the majority of us are off sleeping or somewhere else. And he hasn't made any bad decisions on there, so I don't see a problem with him becoming an Operator. File:CT's Battle Flag - Distressed.JPG Anthony I of the United States^Talk 3/01/2008

Good to know that channel will be covered even when American operators are nocturnally unconscious. I quizzed him a bit today about technical and policy aspects of operatorship; he checks out. Regards, RelentlessRecusant 'o the Halopedia Team ^TALK • _MESSAGE 20:14, 1 March 2008 (UTC)

Now, before you stare at this with your upper lip trembling due to an effort to not laugh, bare with me here. When there's a lack of Ops present, there's a new breed of idiocy plaguing the channel. All we do is /ignore them, but there are some people who don't (and will most likely never make an effort to) know how to do that, and like I did, they may find it slightly embarrassing to have to ask a veteran user how. On the subject of veterans, I've been here a long time, and I think I've proven myself more than capable to handle the stress that is a #Halopedia op. So, in closing, consider me. --Kwarsh ^{[Talk to me!] - [Stuff I've done!]} 17:56, 1 March 2008 (UTC)

On #halopedia, there is a plauge of trolls and other users who don't know the rules. Yes, I know, you all say "Just warn them". The thing is, is that they never listen. Also, you may say "There are 21 ops on the channel, we don't need another one". But, most of those 21 ops are never there, and, if they are, they are either /away or just don't care. I was granted operator status once before, but it was revoked on the basis of "showing off" and "being immature". I am an operator on five active channels, and I am very experienced in IRC commands and protocol. I am almost always in the channel, usually from 4:15 - 9:00 on weekdays, and almost the whole day on weekends. I firmly believe that I am capable of handling the stress of being a #halopedia channel operator. -- Sgt.johnsonFile:General-gr1.gif 01:27, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

I oppose, you are too immature to be a channel operator or a sysop. And I've held this opinion for a long time, so don't blame it on having PinkyBot kicked today. I was originally the one who silenced PinkyBot but RR told me to remove it, so I did. --Charitwo 01:54, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

Immature? How so? Please explain and provide evidence. -- Sgt.johnsonFile:General-gr1.gif
