Why do you still do this? You're managing the same website you did three years ago, and still for no reason. You're thirty three years old! You don't think that maybe it's time to start a family? To take care of your wife or something? Take a page from me and stop going here. The "friends" you make won't miss you, they'll just drown their sorrows in computer code. Please, just stop this whole thing.

:It's a hobby and I like it. In the last five (not three) years I've learned a lot of things about teamwork, management, critical thinking, and software development. Things I can carry over into my professional life. Plus it's fun, interesting, and challenging, I still think Homestar Runner is funny, and there's nothing what says you can't have a hobby and still pursue other things like work and family. By the way, if you're going to break your streak of not "going here" just to insult me, at least have the stones to sign your real name. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 21:04, 12 December 2009 (UTC)

The joke's over. You can stop with the purge now. Mostly everything is where it should be, and that's good enough for us. Now, just open the wiki, and no sudden tricks. - {{User:Znex/sig}} 21:44, 6 January 2010 (UTC)

WikiBot
Unless you have über-1337 haxx0r access like our friend It's dot com here, the only way you're going to be doing anything to the wiki is with normal page loads, i.e. exactly as if you were editing it by hand, just automated. (more) (11 April 2006)

Reynold

Hyphen?!
In regards to Freshley's, I know it's an apostrophe; I have no idea what I was thinking when I made the edit. (more) (12 October 2005)
Regarding the Article of the Day

sig help
Can my signature have Easter eggs in it? (more) (16 January 2006)
That image
Just so you know, the reason I restored that image is just because there was support expressed for it and I felt that the person who removed it was acting rather unilaterally. (more) (25 January 2006)
What did you do
I would just like to make a counterpoint to hating guestbooks, even though the discussion is over. (more) (29 January 2006)
Sorry
Sorry about re-making those User_talk:Drwho? pages. (more) (31 January 2006)
Babel
I understand why you think that the Babel towers will be better with the source code rather than the templates, but I really think that templates will make it a lot easier to use and more user friendly. (more) (7 February 2006)

Can I get a recap of the things that have happened here since the start of December? (more) (15 February 2006)

Dangeresque change
I'm the guy that changed the Dangeresque character page to note that dangeresque's glasses somehow stay on his head despite his total lack of ears. You changed it back, saying "(that's true, but it's not really very notable)". (more) (13 April 2006)
Just a little hello
P.S. Just out of curiosity, why did you revert my edits on the HR Wiki article on wikipedia? (more) (16 April 2006)

Where would we have it?
Patience. We already have something in the works. (more) (31 August 2007)
Nice Jorb on the Stinko Comic Strip Image
I really liked your take on it, making it "informational" on how to create one. (more) (10 October 2007)
Clarification on Pseudocharacters
My understanding was that pseudocharacters were never added to the cast lists, yet you readded Wagon Fulla Pancakes to montage with a note saying that when they act as a character they are in the cast list. (more) (18 October 2007)
Missy's B-day Card cont'd
I want to get together a Birthday card for Missy. (more) (22 October 2007)

Duck Guardian and TROGDOR! Wii mirrors.
Could you upload and mirror those 2 Wii games? (more) (31 March 2008)

Trogdor!

Block'd?

Hey, I was just wondering why you blocked the anonny 68.39.230.211, when he'd only made three edits? Yes, he plugged the Sandbox with nonsensical links, but couldn't you have talked to him and asked him to stop it? I'm not sure if you did talk to him or not. If you didn't though, then 1 week was probably a little harsh. DevonM(talk·cont-ribs) 20:17, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

Meh, maybe you're right. I was going primarily from this edit, and I thought that the anonny had been reverted three times and was being persistent with adding those links. I'll unblock for now. — It's dot com 20:44, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
Whoops! Sorry if there was a misunderstanding. I was just fooling around and deleting some spam from the sandbox. The anonny wasn't spamming any other pages than the sandbox. Super Turtle Talk 21:51, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
No need to fear, Turtle, you acted correctly. Dotty just got a little carried away—which he rarely does, I might add, he does a bang-up job here and I'm personally proud of what he's accomplished—and made a premature judgement in absence of the facts. He fixed it, and all is well now, all is safe and sound. Sleep peacefully. Qermaq - (T/C) Image:Qermaqsigpic.png 02:10, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
Dotty? Augh! Bleh! Ewww! Grugh! {suddenly sotto voce} No. Thanks as always to Qermaq for putting a bow on what was pretty much already wrapped up. ;) (Although I would recommend in the future not yelling in summaries if one is not trying to attract attention. But yeah, no big deal now.) — It's dot com 13:31, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
Admit it, you kinda love it when I call you Dotty. ;) Qermaq - (T/C) Image:Qermaqsigpic.png 23:41, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
Personally, I think Dot Com should be quoting Dot Warner right about now: "Call me, Dotty and you die." wbwolf (t | ed) 00:30, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
"Yeah, you're probably right." Qermaq - (T/C) Image:Qermaqsigpic.png 07:46, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
As long as this thread has gone completely off topic, I think I should mention that I always choose the names Yakko, Wakko, and Dot for the computer players when playing Hearts. — It's dot com 16:56, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

Joshua

Okay, I know you have a fanstuff talk page. But this is serious. Joshua, the sysop, did something like blackmail. Now the forum is messed up and Super Sam blocked him. Can you please fix this mess? User talk:Sam the Man Sam the Man 14:47, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

I do believe that what is occurring is simply playful banter which Sam here has taken a bit too seriously. Everything is fine. Nothing is ruined. - Super Sam 05:37, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
Edit conflict: Lies. All lies! Clearly I'm the only one who knows how it all went down. Joshua randomly bans Super Sam on the forum and then Super Sam screws around with the forum skin for revenge. Also I think Supra tried to block Joshua on the wiki but Joshua just unblocked himself. Just a spot of fun, no need to get all grumpy about it. I think it's pretty dang hilarious the way it's going down. --Shadow Scythe 05:39, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
Thanks for stopping by, you guys. Thanks for breaking my cow lamp. — It's dot com 17:11, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

imagemap

Whoa, this is pretty awesome... great jorb! Trey56 13:13, 14 June 2008 (UTC)

Thanks! I installed the feature back during the last upgrade (because the fanstuff kept pestering me to) but hadn't found a good use for it here at the knowledge base until now. — It's dot com 14:29, 14 June 2008 (UTC)

If you notice anything strange...

This may just be me being paranoid, but I just thought I'd let you know that MySpace told me I got phished and... I kinda had this thing going where I used the same password for everything... including my email, in which I saved an email to myself detailing how to log in to my account on this website...

So, if anybody does anything funny under my account, I just thought I should let someone with special authorities and privileges and whatnot know about it (although I have since changed my password). I might start a new account just in case, but I'm not sure yet how that'll work out.

Anyway... now you know. ~That Guy Over There (User talk:That Guy Over There) 18:10, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

Don't start a new account. Changing your password should be adequate. By the way, to add a section to a talk page, just click the little plus (+) next to the edit button. It will give you a place to enter the thread header and format it automatically. — It's dot com 18:14, 2 July 2008 (UTC)
Jolly good. ~That Guy Over There (User talk:That Guy Over There) 18:18, 2 July 2008 (UTC)
Just the same, I think I'd like my username changed. (I've been thinking of ditching LuxAcerbus for a while now.) Sysops can do that, right? ~That Guy Over There (User talk:That Guy Over There) 19:03, 2 July 2008 (UTC)
Bureaucrats can, yes. See HRWiki:Changing username. — It's dot com 19:15, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

Forum Redirect

Since the HRWiki forum is down, alot of the regular users have taken refuge to http://www.inversetiger.com/forum/ . However, pretty much the only way for people on the forum to communicate to each other now is by email. Since barely anyone shows their email address, the last resort option is to communicate by editing your sig. Even then, most people don't go looking through a locked forum looking at people's sigs(which is where I found the link). The result: Only the regular users found link. So, I figured that it would be best if you posted some sort of link on the front page of the Wiki or something so people can find it. -strongfan

Fanstuff Purge: Wiki User Emails

There are currently a few Wiki User Emails on the list of fanstuffs to be saved, and it's been decided that this would be a great chance to get them over to the Wiki User Wiki. My question is whether it would be easier to use whatever fancy method you're using to transfer them across or whether it would be easier to just do it manually.
Cheers, Super Sam 19:39, 3 August 2008 (UTC)

I don't know if this is the specific fancy way that DC's going to use, but if you want to transfer stuff, then the easy way is to go to HRFWiki:Special:Export, and put in all the page-names (one per line), and mash go. That'll give you an XML file that you can feed into Special:Import on WUW (you'll need to be sysop to use Special:Import, but Special:Export can usually be run by anyone). As well as being able to copy lots of pages in one hit, you can also (if you want) include each page's history, and all the templates they use. --phlip TC 22:47, 3 August 2008 (UTC)

Thank you

Looking at this, it appears a lot of the forum users have been giving you grief over the locked forum. I just would like to pause for a moment and say thank you. You have dealt with this matter professionally, and I would like to say that in your shoes, I would have done the same thing. Thank you for managing this problem well. --Mario2.PNG Super Martyo boing! 01:22, 10 August 2008 (UTC)

Ummm... there's no more bar there. it completed. But nothing happened. It's just... the signup screen.
Also, I sent the email, but I didn't get a reply. TheThin 12:52, 7 September 2008 (UTC)

Actually, you sent two emails. I only said you'd get a reply if it was necessary, and in your case it's not. The status bars only indicate that a certain step is done out of many. You'll know that the wiki is back up when it looks like a MediaWiki wiki. — It's dot com 19:46, 7 September 2008 (UTC)

Hey, Dot com, it has been like 3 weeks now. What gives? -AlmsforthePudgy 19:44, 21 September 2008 (UTC)

Seriously, you guys. Stop pestering Dot com. He's doing his best, and he's working very hard for you. Yes, for you. Give him some credit. It's dot com is spending hours and hours (literally) of his spare time fixing the fanstuff wiki for you, and the last thing he needs (I'm sure of it) is someone poking him with a stick continuously, asking if he's done yet. So sit back and relax, give him some space, and when he's finally done, thank him very much for it. Loafing 13:05, 22 September 2008 (UTC)

Ops in #hrwiki-fanstuff

I hate to whine and complain like this, but please give someone ops in #hrwiki-fanstuff. It is impossible to control the channel. It doesn't have to be a fanstuff sysop, just someone easily accessible. Bluebry 17:42, 4 October 2008 (UTC)

Hey man, we seem to have a few trolls in #hrwiki-fanstuff, Tom's not responding, you're not on, and we really need ops, so whenever you see this, please give someone ops. Bluebry 00:49, 6 October 2008 (UTC)

Who's online

You guys need "WhosOnline", a special that can tell you whos online and what they are looking at. Can be used to quickly see when there is going to be spam. Elementio 18:58, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

From my old fanstuff talk page:

Check this out It's the recent changes page of The Mario Wiki. I made an account there, and I realized on the recent changes page, there's a little section for who's currently logged in. I figured I'd ask you if we could possibly make this a feature here. It would make things alot easier when trying to contact users and such. --TheDenzelTheDenzelsiglogo.gif 18:11, 2 December 2007 (UTC)
[...] This would indeed be interesting, but people shouldn't have their identities exposed just because they're browsing. Part of what a lot of people like about reading a wiki is that you're not publicly logged unless you edit. And there's the thing: one should be able to tell who's online well enough just by looking at the recent changes. — It's dot com 04:25, 3 December 2007 (UTC)

Or do you mean something that only sysops and/or developers could see? If so, we already have enough behind-the-scenes access to handle our relatively minor spam load. Thanks though. — It's dot com 19:50, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

I mean that only registered users can see, and from my knowledge of it, noone EVER uses it but me, for some reason on the other wikis I go on. It would just help alot. Elementio 19:55, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
Well, like I said last year, I don't think that information should be available to just anyone who happens to have an account. There's almost no reason (if any) to look over someone's shoulder if they're merely reading articles. — It's dot com 20:03, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
However, it can help if they are about to troll. Elementio 20:04, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
It would be nearly impossible to tell whether someone was about to vandalize based solely on what they're looking at. Even if it were possible, the vigilance required to make the extension effective would be prohibitively time-consuming. Considering the low volume of bad-faith edits we have to deal with and how easy it is to clean up pages after the fact, we simply don't have the need for an early-warning system. — It's dot com 20:18, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

Hey, something to bring your attention to

Adventure Classic Gaming recently had an interview with the Brothers Chaps and the designers of their episodic adventure game series at TellTale, not sure how you usually feature new content related to the brothers chaps but figured you might not have seen it yet, it isn't on the interviews page at least: [1] -MarkN

-MarioMaster2008

P.S. Speaking of which, why did you think I went overboard trying to prove my point with the video?

I wouldn't say so. People have gone crazy before proving their point. MichaelXX2 mail_icon.gif link_icon.gif 06:12, 2 January 2009 (UTC)
Maybe so, but if you look on the talk page for the article in question, you'll see that It's Dot Com himself said I surpassed him in levels of proving my point. -MarioMaster2008
The above link to that template talk page has nothing to do with what I'm talking about. I'm referring to people posting evidence they gather to try and answer a question of fact regarding something in one of the toons. I'm not saying I don't go overboard (my illustrations on Homestar's spinning buzzer are just the latest example), but I think making a whole YouTube video trumps anything I've done. So far. By the way, MarioMaster, to sign your name, just type four tildes, like this: ~~~~, and the system will automatically insert your name and a timestamp, like this: It's dot com 16:10, 2 January 2009 (UTC)

Oh, so that's what happened, I only saw it in the preview. Sorry for bothering you, is there a better place for questions like that? —Guard Duck talk 01:08, 18 January 2009 (UTC)
You can ask me on my talk page, i don't get annoyed by technical questions, but the best place is probably the talk for one of the help pages or something... — Defender1031*Talk 01:11, 18 January 2009 (UTC)
HRWiki talk:FAQ is actually the place we've set aside for questions. If a discussion needs to be on a more specific page, it can be referred to the other page from there. And it is true that a question on any central or highly visible public talk page will likely be answered. Similarly, while I'm not encouraging you to post on any one user's talk page, you could do worse than this one. It's watched by a good number of users, and I have a whole section of the page devoted to technical issues. — It's dot com 02:58, 18 January 2009 (UTC)

Blanking the sandbox

 

Hey, um, are you trying to make fun of me? That userbox, Um, NOT FREAKIN FUNNY! If you need to tell me something, tell me in my Talk page.--Record307

Strictly speaking, yes, I am making fun, but I'm not trying to be mean. I just think it's funny that you've blanked the sandbox once a day every day for the past 11 days (except the 9th (when you did it twice) and the 15th (which you missed)). I myself blank the sandbox on occasion, but not like clockwork. Generally speaking, having a blank or non-blank sandbox makes no difference, and so I find it interesting that you've kept it up. But I'm just teasing, not trying to be offensive. :) (By the way, if it's not obvious, the icon there is a blank sandbox.) Cheers. — It's dot com 01:42, 19 January 2009 (UTC)

I've been good, nearly done hiugh school, which leaves me to my first question:

I'll be leaving Homestar Runner wiki, temporarily, for school reasons. Anyhow, can someone you tell me where i can find a banner template to place on my wikipage saying I'll be off wiki for a while?

Thanks a bunch.

Nikolce Kocovski 07:59, 26 January 2009 (UTC)

Wow, Nikolce, long time no hear from. We don't really have a template for that kind of thing, but you can make a banner by taking some code from one of our other templates and putting it on your page. Then you can update the message to suit whatever you need it to say. I'm curious how long a while is (your last edit was last April, which is what I'd consider a while). — It's dot com 11:42, 26 January 2009 (UTC)

Whoa, April, man school's been taking my time man. As well as school, sometimes my internets gets capped, meaning it becomes slow, and when it comes to wikis, they don;t load up.

Thanks for the help again.

Invisible arms

When you said it was NOT better... I'm not gonna lie to you. It IS better. PLEASE, don't block me! --The 386 My talk 00:29, 6 March 2009 (UTC)

Block you? You're wrong though. We consistently treat scenes as though the characters have normal arms and/or fingers (regardless of what's "really" the case) and are directly manipulating objects. In other words, we say that Homestar is picking up an object (and don't worry about how), not that it mysteriously starts floating. — It's dot com 00:37, 6 March 2009 (UTC)
I just DON'T want my edits reverted. The INVISIBLE arms show that these objects float in mid-air. I don't mean to sound rude. --The 386 My talk 00:31, 6 March 2009 (UTC)
Sorry, but that's not our standard. We know that the objects appear to be floating, but that's not how we describe them. — It's dot com 00:37, 6 March 2009 (UTC)

When will the fanstuff wiki be back?

Hey Dot Com, when will the fanstuff wiki be back? Raiku 04:34, 1 April 2009 (UTC)

Unfortunately, the fanstuff was a significant drain on our resources, and with funds being so tight we just can't justify it anymore. I'm afraid it will never be back. Sorry. — It's dot com 04:41, 1 April 2009 (UTC)

My new email address

I recently got a Gmail account. Now my new email address is xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx@gmail.com. So, could you change my email address on the forum to that. PS:If anyone emails me, I will send Barney to attack you. Coach 's Cool! 12:15, 1 April 2009 (UTC)

I will only change your forum address to whatever's in your preferences here on the wiki, and the address above (at least, what it was before) isn't it. If you don't want people to email you, don't post it here. — It's dot com 14:24, 1 April 2009 (UTC)
Oh, yeah. I forgot to do about that. I changed it. Coach 's Cool! 14:33, 1 April 2009 (UTC)

Free Country Mountain Range files

Not to be naggy but I'm kinda wondering what's going on with ny Free Country Mountain Range files, because you said you'd put it on your to-do list about 5 months ago.--KirbychuHR'D 02:50, 30 April 2009 (UTC)

Yup, exactly 199 days ago. I put it on my to-do list. It's still there. — It's dot com 03:08, 30 April 2009 (UTC)
That's one big to-do list.--KirbychuHR'D 03:12, 30 April 2009 (UTC)

What the pfargtl?

This is the edit summary from Recent Changes for one of your recent edits:

(diff) (hist) . . Talk:Main Page‎; 15:51 . . (-673) . . It's dot com (Talk | contribs) (look at the date on that reply (it was a joke))

But in the recent changes IRC it looked like:

<+HRWikiRC> Talk:Main Page [2] * It's dot com * (-673) feel free to discuss that somewhere else (off-site)

The link provided by the RC bot goes to the same diff provided on the RC page. What the pfargtl is going on? --Mario2.PNG Super Martyo boing! 23:25, 7 May 2009 (UTC)

Hello again

Hey. First of all, I'm sorry for how conceited, passive-aggressive and rude I behaved here a few years ago. Secondly, the Wiki is in ship shape! I'm very impressed with the progress you guys have made while I was away. Great work! I'll be contributing regularly again, but this time without unfairly scrutinizing you or anyone else here. Carpe diem! Darth Katana X (discussionitem_icon.gif user.gif mail_icon.gif) 23:53, 29 May 2009 (UTC)

Possible Trolls/Vandals

Hello, sorry if this is in the wrong place, I didn't know where to put it.

On the recent changes page, there seems to be a large number of accounts being made. normally if it was 1 or 2 I wouldn't notice, but there's been 8 in the last 5 minutes. I think it might be a troll or vandal. BubbleRevolution 01:11, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

Yes, this is the wrong place to put this, but these accounts are all being made by the same person, because they all are common names (all having something to do with the Eragon series, I have read the books), except maybe User:Sbe-Mail Checker Dan, he's probably a coincidence. Also, you probably shouldn't use the word TROLL or VANDAL yet, since the user(s) haven't made any edits yet, and might not know about the sockpuppet rule. Can someone go talk to him/her? I'm not sure how to do this. free 01:17, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

Would like Autocolumn extension for my own wiki

Hello Homestar, i would like to implement the Autocolumn and AutoPipe/AutoRedirect extensions on my own wiki, are these available? --Kevin danko 16:09, 6 August 2009 (UTC)

Unfortunately, I've never released them. I'd like to someday, but they need to be cleaned up a bit first. — It's dot com 16:38, 6 August 2009 (UTC)

Threats

I'm sorry if this offends anybody but there was a shocking post on this thread. Is the threat empty, like Hiemstern said? I just felt the need to bring that to your attention -I'd rather not post my username 22:08, 2 September 2009 (UTC)

Well, Espemon333 (Talk | contribs), I'm quite aware of that whole situation, and have been for a while. The other sysops/forum mods and I stay in touch pretty well. Thanks for the heads up, but you don't need to worry. — It's dot com 02:34, 3 September 2009 (UTC)
OK. Don't let Heimstern know I posted this. Espemon333 23:06, 3 September 2009 (UTC)
Actually, I already know. I see pretty much every edit on this wiki because I check recent changes a lot. In fact, I think I saw this post before Dot com did. Heimstern Läufer 23:38, 3 September 2009 (UTC)

The Fanstuff Wiki!

How long has it been now? If your not going to do anything with it, just delete it and it's all over with. It gets my hopes up every time I go there and while it's loading the title says "Main Page" TheThin 01:15, 28 September 2009 (UTC)

What is wrong with fanstuff? Totally outta the loop, Espemon333

My Weight in Pencil Shavings

How much does a page on the wiki usually cost? Espemon333 22:36, 8 October 2009 (UTC)

Um, I don't know what that means... And you still smell like pea soooup! By the way, the reason you triple post is that my page is long and so it takes a bit of time to load and you get impatient and hit "Save page" three times. Only hit it once. It heard you the first time. — It's dot com 22:53, 8 October 2009 (UTC)
The reason we are having the fundraiser... the pages cost money... right..? Espemon333 23:34, 8 October 2009 (UTC)
In a sense, yes, I guess. The pages are stored in a database, which is located on a hard drive, which is part of a server, and it takes money for us to be hosted on that server. See our donations and ledger pages if you want specific information. — It's dot com 23:48, 8 October 2009 (UTC)

A Probably Bad Good Idea

We all know about the decomisionning of STUFF, which I do support, but I reviewed your new version of the STUFF template and I loved it. I think we need to incorperate that template INTO the talk page. It looked great, and I liked how it condenses the entire discussion into the smallest portions. I really think we should get it into the talk page. Espemon333 03:09, 11 October 2009 (UTC)

The "new" version of the STUFF template is what we used for years, and what we decommissioned. We decided to stop using the STUFF format in favor of regular discussions. We don't have any plans to reincorporate it at this time. — It's dot com 03:35, 11 October 2009 (UTC)

Another Fanstuff Thing

I don't mean to kill the already several dead horses about this topic, but I don't think the sysops are going to fix the Fanstuff Wiki. I know you have a life, n'stuff, but we want some stuff done. I don't care if you do half a page a day. Any progress is good progress. And if your schedule doesn't allow for any Fan-Wiki work, then get people that will accualy work. The regular people word be WAY more willing, and more faster, to fix these unfinished pages. In short, I hope you take some time to work on the Fan-Wiki, get better workers, and always, ALWAYS edit blank pages. User:Anonomous

Possible spammer

Don't know if this is the right place to say this, please correct me if not. I have reason to believe that Drhuldaclark142 is a spammer, judging by the fact that this person has been here for a few days and that their only contribution is to their own userpage as a link to some sort of online store. The McArby! 01:01, 18 November 2009 (UTC)

You're right. We've been getting far too much spam lately; guess it's no surprise some would slip through the cracks. Spam... DELETED!! *bzzt!* --Jay (Gobble) 01:25, 18 November 2009 (UTC)

Please block this IP

Can you please block an IP for me? I know this IP. It's my evil friend. He found out I had a HRwiki and will stop at nothing to ruin it.--Record307 Talk/Contribs 03:27, 24 November 2009 (UTC)

Hi, Record. Has this IP actually vandalized? We don't block IPs preemptively usually (in fact, I'm not aware that we do so ever). Heimstern Läufer 03:35, 24 November 2009 (UTC)
Yes. Just today he blanked a section of my userpage. Check the history. "ZaneHiturugi" is his internet name.--Record307 Talk/Contribs 03:37, 24 November 2009 (UTC)
I've given the IP a block warning; if he does it again, it'd be appropriate to block. For now, though, we'll probably just leave it as is. Heimstern Läufer 03:43, 24 November 2009 (UTC)
Alright, that's cool. Thanks!--Record307 Talk/Contribs 03:44, 24 November 2009 (UTC)

Why do you still do this?

Why do you still do this? You're managing the same website you did three years ago, and still for no reason. You're thirty three years old! You don't think that maybe it's time to start a family? To take care of your wife or something? Take a page from me and stop going here. The "friends" you make won't miss you, they'll just drown their sorrows in computer code. Please, just stop this whole thing.

It's a hobby and I like it. In the last five (not three) years I've learned a lot of things about teamwork, management, critical thinking, and software development. Things I can carry over into my professional life. Plus it's fun, interesting, and challenging, I still think Homestar Runner is funny, and there's nothing what says you can't have a hobby and still pursue other things like work and family. By the way, if you're going to break your streak of not "going here" just to insult me, at least have the stones to sign your real name. — It's dot com 21:04, 12 December 2009 (UTC)

Okay

The joke's over. You can stop with the purge now. Mostly everything is where it should be, and that's good enough for us. Now, just open the wiki, and no sudden tricks. - ‪‪‪Znex 21:44, 6 January 2010 (UTC)
