User talk:FireBird
From Homestar Runner Wiki
Welcome to FireBird's discussion page! Any comments, concerns, thank-you's or any other junk for me you can post here. I read each and every comment posted here, and will respond to every one.
Please don't use the "+" feature to add a new section, as it messes up my page layout.
Question from Troll
What's the purpose of a wiki if people (like me) can always change it. That doesn't seem very permanent to me. Don't you get tired of reverting back to previous versions. Anyways. Later.
- No. I don't. We have many users here who are happy to do good deeds, and though it's not permanent, they always try to do what is best for this place. You, however, apparently do not. So please. Leave. The less of your kind the better. →[[User:FireBird|FireBird]]
- I hope you don't mind me chiming in here, FireBird. Anonymous troll, the fact is that for every troll with too much spare time, there are 100 users with just as much spare time ready and eager to undo that troll's (un)work. The fact is, the trolls always get bored before the users do, because the users are emotionally invested in what they've created and the Wiki moves fast enough that the average trolling only lasts about two minutes before it's reverted. A troll's work is hardly ever noticed by anybody, but a legitimate user's work is always noticed and appreciated. That's why wikis work. — InterruptorJones[[]] 15:37, 17 Jan 2005 (MST)
- He's got a point there. A~N
Special Task
(January 1st, 2005)
Hi Firebird! Thunderbird here again, with a special task for a few of my fellow users. On the Sketchbook page, in the Museum section of that page, the last picture is a bunch of rejected halloween costume ideas. The caption gives the challenge '10 bucks to anyone who can identify them all'. So what I propose is to identify them all. I've already set up a basic 'top left to bottom right' type list under the 'Description' section, with the two most obvious costumes in it. But can we get the other costumes, and win ourselves $10? Any costumes you know would be a help. Thanks. [[User:Thunderbird L17|⇔Thunderbird⇔]] 02:10, 2 Jan 2005 (MST)
- I'll try my best, captain. →[[User:FireBird|FireBird]]
- Update: The good Doctor Haggis was far faster with that task than I could have ever expected. All the costumes are done with the exception of one: The full body Marzipan. Many think that she is in fact Belle from Beauty & the Beast, but we're not quite sure about that. What are your thoughts? Any better ideas as to who this mystery Marzipans could be, or even just your opinion as to weather or not she's Belle? [[User:Thunderbird L17|⇔Thunderbird⇔]] 12:11, 2 Jan 2005 (MST)
- I wouldn't have been much help even if the good Dr. Haggis didn't wipe us all out. I only knew the Oompa, Comic Book Guy and Marge.
- But anyways, I really have no idea at all. I'll have to watch Beauty and the Beast again... →[[User:FireBird|FireBird]]
To Be Delorted
(January 5th, 2005)
If you're wondering why I created that page which you so blatantly described as "to be deleted", it was a joke. I, unlike you, have a sense of humor. -Fhqwhgadshgnsdbkhsdabkfabkveybvf (http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php/User:Fhqwhgadshgnsdbkhsdabkfabkveybvf )
- It needs to be in your user space, not a whole page itself. You have only two pages that is yours; that you can edit however you wish- your user page and your talk page. "not expanding it" is not one of those. Every page on the wiki either has to do with Homestar Runner or the wiki (aside from user spaces). But, you can make it a subpage of your user talk page.
- And really, was there any reason to insult me? Please. I get enough of that already. →[[User:FireBird|FireBird]]
Sub-pages
FireBird, as you know, sub-pages are prohibited on our wiki, and that includes userpages. Please find another way to display your archives without subpages and add the sub-pages to Category:To be deleted. Thanks. — InterruptorJones[[]] 19:11, 11 Jan 2005 (MST)
- Oh. Okay. I've just heard people say that sub pages are allowed in User Talks, and User:Kilroy had them, so I assumed that they were allowed. I'll "To be deleted" them right now. Sorry for all that. →[[User:FireBird|FireBird]]
- Thanks for understanding. I've left Kilroy a message as well. — InterruptorJones[[]] 19:33, 11 Jan 2005 (MST)
- No problem. →[[User:FireBird|FireBird]]
T.R.O.L.L.
Hey, just wanted to let you know, I agree with you're TROLL opinion. It is pretty worthless. -Wierded out by TROLL
- Okay. →[[User:FireBird|FireBird]]
Re: Modules
From your comments, you seem insulted that people have "copied" the module idea. The module is a great idea; it's no wonder that it's spread. Given the cooperative nature of the Wiki, I'm sure no one who borrowed it meant any offense. Quite the opposite, in fact. After all, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. -- FortyTwo 18:48, 21 Jan 2005 (MST)
- I didn't mean it in the form of insultance. Guess it did kind of look like it though, I should have said something else. Oops. →[[User:FireBird|FireBird]]
