-	Hey there. I noticed something odd when you signed your name. The system should have made a link to your user page, but it didn't. In your [[Special:Preferences|preferences]], next to Nickname where it says "Raw signatures (without automatic link)", that checkbox needs to be '''unchecked'''. It should only be checked if you have a custom signature (which you currently do not). Cheers! &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 11:35, 25 April 2006 (UTC)	+	== Delete User ==

Please let me know which one you would like to mark as abandoned. [[:Image:--Homsar.jpg|This one]] isn't linked to from anywhere (and thus could be marked as abandoned if you wish), while [[:Image:Homsar2.jpeg|this one]] could possibly be replaced by one of the many other Homsar images already on the wiki. Any of the following images that ''are not'' marked as abandoned would not count towards your personal image limit, if you chose one of them. Some of the Homsar images availible include [[:Image:homsar evolution current.png|this one]], [[:Image:oldhomsar.png|this one]], [[:Image:sbemail2.PNG|this one]], [[:Image:upsidedown homsar.PNG|this one]], [[:Image:180px-Strong Bad Email 134.png|this one]] [[:Image:Homsar Old timey bandit.PNG|this one]] or [[:Image:homsar2.gif|this one]].

-	This is Brightstar Shiner. I am best friend of Wiki Grrl and go to the same school as her. I know that yesterday she was on the HrWiki at the public library and she had to get off because the librarian told her to. She left her notebook that had "Top Flight" and "The Chub" on the front of it at the spot by accident. That was in the vandalized versions of the pages, remember? Someone immediately got on the same computer 5 minutes later and saw the front of the notebook. Please don't think she's the troll even if she said she was. I don't see it here, but Wiki Grrl told me that she said she was the troll just to get It's Dot Com off her back. Please believe me. It was a bad move on her part!  -[[User:Brightstar Shiner|Brightstar Shiner]] 20:04, 26 April 2006 (UTC)	+	::About a background, I suppose you could look at [http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=HRWiki:Projects&diff=257853&oldid=256670] and try some of that. {{User:ACupOfCoffee/sig}} 00:31, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
-	:You know, I have been nothing but supportive of Wiki grrl since she joined, giving her technical advice and arguing for her right to move her essay into her user space. I can't imagine why she would make up a story just to get me "off her back" if she knew she was innocent. Keep in mind that not only did I ''not'' immediately name her as the vandal, but I also told her that if she offered even the feeblest of explanations that I would believe her. I've been trying to encourage what I thought was potential, but now you're telling me that either she lied to me yesterday or you're lying to me now. I, like most people, don't like being lied to. I can confirm that the IP resolves to a library. If it was someone else who did it, then why not say so? If, on the other hand, she really did do it, then why are you posting now? &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 21:09, 26 April 2006 (UTC)	+
-	::I'm sorry. I know you've been very helpful to her and me and a bunch of other people. When you said that only the feeblest of explanations would be enough, that didn't sound truthful, since when most people say something like that, it means "I'm still not gonna believe you no matter what you say". She is not the troll. This is turning out to be me embarrassing myself again because Wiki Grrl DID make up a story, she IS innocent, and she WAS not thinking at the time. Everybody makes mistakes and please forget this ever happened. I've had a bad enough day already. -[[User:Brightstar Shiner|Brightstar Shiner]] 01:04, 27 April 2006 (UTC)	+

[edit] Delete User

Is there any way to delete this user? I, Unme93 ^T/_C , used to be wiki grrl, but I lost the password to the account and the email I created the account on is cancelled. Could someone please help me?

Also, I think that you should be a logged in user to edit a page. It would create a whole lot less of vandalism to be reverted, and noone would be so up and iffy about some edits.

One more.... I would like some help rewriting my user page please. I really don't know a lot of HTML, and I would really like someone with past experience with HTML to help me and give me pointers. I would like the background changed, my pointer changed, some background music, and a cool text font. Its okay if you don't have the time, but if there is anybody who would like to help, just let me know!!! Thankyou!!!

No. That would leave holes in the database which I imagine would cause some major problems, though I don't really know just what they would be. Take a look at HRWiki:Privacy_policy#Removal_of_user_accounts.

I don't know that disabling anonymous edits would really do anything. We tried that once, and all the vandals did was start vandalizing with randomly generated usernames.

As far as your user page and HTML, there is very little HTML that will actually do anything on the wiki. FYI: background music is impossible. Modifying the background requires knowledge of CSS (only an admin can apply it, though) and the pointer code should be easy enough to lift from another user page. For the font, just use this formula:

<span style="font-family: XXX;">Your text goes here.</span>

About a background, I suppose you could look at [1] and try some of that. — User:ACupOfCoffee@ 00:31, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
