Leaving

Are you okay Sam? --TheYellowDart—(t/c) 19:58, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

Nobody is mad at you. Hey, we all have a past. Heck, look at mine. I got blocked before. But that's behind me now. It's alright. --TheYellowDart—(t/c) 20:04, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

Don't leave! Mr. 567 20:02, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

Sam, I don't know why you are leaving but you shouldn't go. If you could not help, just keep trying. If you did something bad, it's ok. We don't want you to leave. You welcomed me to the wiki. If you want to leave it's ok. We'll miss you.--ONESTOP 20:20, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

Sam, I'm sorry to hear that you've chosen to leave. I think you've done a lot of good work on our articles during the time you spent here. I understand that you've chosen to leave because of a recent conflict regarding a post on a new user's talk page. Please don't feel bad about that; I think you have a lot of potential, and I've seen quite a bit of improvement in the quality of your talk page posts during your time on the wiki.

I understand your decision to leave, and if you're feeling strained by things in real life (your parents, etc.), as you mentioned, then taking a break might be a good thing. I just want to let you know that you're welcome to return at any time, and I'm free to discuss anything you want about the reason you left.

Take care, Trey56 20:13, 16 Dismember 2007 (UTC)

Wait a Sec, You ain't leaving the fanstuff are ya? Sephiroth 20:27, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

Well, I wonder how many times you'll say you are leaving this wiki! But, you misspelled "however" on your userpage, you're gonna have to be blocked for that :P Have a good rest of the year. See you when you get back,

Homestar-Winner (talk) 23:02, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

Wait, BLOCKED? Sam the Man 23:08, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

That was a joke, as shown by me putting a :P after what I said. And if you already know that, never mind it. Homestar-Winner (talk) 23:50, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

If we blocked people for misspelling things on userpages, who would be left here? ;-) Anyway, Sam, have a good break, and I hope you'll come back refreshed. Heimstern Läufer 00:55, 17 December 2007 (UTC)

I'm gonna miss your butt dance sig!:p see ya when you come back!--Geoblu2 04:56, 17 December 2007 (UTC)

Oh, Sam the Man, I pine for you! We sure had some great times, bro. In memoriam. -DAGRON 05:10, 17 December 2007 (UTC). (Oh, wait, you're not dead. Good. I thought they got you with a stake through the heart. Have a good break.)

Saved a copy

Incase you don't want to leave, I saved a copy of your page when it was your birthday. I went into the history then edit and copied everything. We are going to miss you.--ONESTOP 20:29, 16 December 2007 (UTC) : (

That's ok, but the history will never go away, ever. ^{The Goblin!!} 21:00, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

Subpages for deletion

Hey Sam. I noticed you left three pages marked for deletion when you decided to take a break. Did you really mean for those to be deleted, or did you just forget to untag them? If you'd still like them deleted, just say so here, otherwise just untag them. Thanks! — It's dot com 00:32, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

Opps. That's just me in anger. Save them. I'm off to Burmuda now! (Not really. Enjoying my wikibreak). Sam the Man 01:14, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

Okay. Don't forget that you need to take the deletion tags off in that case. — It's dot com 01:24, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

Concerning Justin

Hi, Sam, there are still some things we need to work on when dealing with newer users. Here you are improving in writing your messages, but you still need to polish it up. For example, "you making way to many subpages" has two problems: first, it needs to be "you are making way too many". (There are also other parts that need proofreading that I won't discuss.) Second, the problem isn't really that he's making too many subpages; it's that the subpages do not comply with our policy. It would have been best to link to our policy, like this.

Also, when Justin became disruptive (and yes, he was disruptive, you are right about that), you began to use some alarmed-sounding language, like the edit summaries here and here. This is a bad idea because it tends to make the situation worse: it does the opposite of calming the person down. It also was a bad idea to edit war with OptimisticFool over his userpage. If you disagree with someone else about what's acceptable on a userpage, ask a sysop to intervene.

I say this not to be overly critical, but because we do still need to present a professional, tactful and calm voice to our new users, even if they're disruptive. Therefore, please read the messages you write to users carefully and make sure they're clear and grammatically correct. And if they become disruptive, be calm in return (if you have a hard time with this, consider just waiting it out until someone else deals with the situation). Keep these in mind, and you should be on the road to doing better. Deal? Deal. OK, keep on tranglin'! Heimstern Läufer 03:01, 22 December 2007 (UTC)

Also very important: if you suspect that a user is a sock, please do not ever post that suspicion on the user's talk page. If turns out that you're wrong and it's just a new user, one of the first things that new user will see is that accusation. Instead, ask a sysop to deal with it. My talk page is always open for this. Thanks. Heimstern Läufer 20:49, 22 December 2007 (UTC)

New here

Hi,Sam.This is Katonator.Katonator ;">3000 15:12, 22 December 2007 (UTC)

Ummm, hi. What's up? Sam the Man 18:48, 22 December 2007 (UTC)

I like Strong Bad.I was wondering if I could check the SBA.Katonator3000 05:50, 23 December 2007 (UTC)

Hello!

What's up? Guess what? I'm in middle school, too! I am a huge fan of Homestar Runner, and so is my best friend. My brother showed it to me. My favorite character is Coach Z, but Strong Bad is my other favorite character, so can you let me be a member of the SBA? Thanks! Hey, I'm not even sure if anyone ever even visits this page anymore, but I just wanted to say that the reason for my absence was due to being extremely busy. I've been playing Pokemon games, writing fan fiction, and reading the complete Harry Potter series in the last three months. I just didn't have the time to contribute to this wiki, but I promise, I'll do my best to come around as often as I can (but there are no guarantees).

About Me

Oh, hello! My name is Allison, although sometimes my best friend calls me All Is On (thanks to the email, for kids). I enjoy sports, video games, but most of all... Homestar Runner.com! I am so thankful that I found this wikipedia! This website is the website I most visit. My favorite character is Coach Z and The Cheat, although I know a lot of people who would find that kind of odd to have Coach Z as one of my favorite characters. I just think Coach Z is one of the funniest, whether he has more than two praeblems or not!

How I Was Introduced To Homestar

At the time the email, road trip, came out, my brother decided to show me that exact email. I loved it! My brother decided to show me some more, which was alternate universe, for kids, video games, virus, and trading cards. After awhile, he hadn't shown me any Strong Bad emails. I couldn't stand it any longer, and got on myself. I found that it was way better to have control of where I went on the website, especially since I could then watch all of my favorites.

My Email Was Answered!!!

Everyone knows how the animation was a bit different in the advertisement for SBCG4AP, right? Well, I didn't know if the animation was going to stay that way forever, so I emailed Mike Chapman about it. And a few hours later, this is what I got back...

Allison,

I'm glad you're excited. We had to animate that cartoon at 24 frames per second instead of our usual 12 frames per second so it matched the gameplay footage. That's why it looked different. Our future cartoons will go back to the regular 12 frames per second. Have a great day!

-Mike

All right, I know that I could've looked that up on the wiki, but I didn't know that it said it there, so it was too late when I found it under Fun Facts.

But who in the world cares? I got an email back from one of the Brothers Chaps!

My bottom 10

10. People who think they know everything. -It gets annoying... especially when they act like you are inferior.

9. Nickelodeon's new shows. -I used to love Nickelodeon's shows. Their newer ones are pathetic. I'm not talking about SpongeBob, or Drake and Josh. I'm talking about the shows that came out in 2006 or 2007.

8. Girly Girls. -Even though I am a girl, I'm not a girly girl. I don't understand how someone can care so much about fashion, hair, or when they shriek over the stupidest things.

7. Like Strong Bad, Mini versions of already bite sized food. -My point... there is less food, for no reason.

6. Homework. -It's just boring to do.

5. Chinese and Japanese food. -I don't like the taste of Chinese food, and I became sick from eating Japanese food in Disney World.

4. How Fox cancelled Futurama. -I know that Futurama is coming back, but I was at loss without it for about two years.

3.The Jonas Brothers. -I know many people love them, but I hate their music. I don't think it sounds very good.

2. Pokemon's new episodes. -I loved Pokemon, especially when I was little. Then, they had to get rid of Misty (original female character). When I saw May and Max, I decided not to watch the show again unless they were the old episodes. To make matters worse, the characters have new voices, which sound nothing like the older ones.

1. People who use inside jokes to make other people feel left out. -This one's title pretty much tells it all. Strong Bad was right. I do want to kill their legs.

Pokemon

Right next to Homestar Runner on my list of favorite things is Pokemon! (Oh, yeah, this section doesn't have anything to do with the club. See below for that.)

What kind of Pokemon am I?

Check out www.pokecharms.com! That's where I made this...

Awww... Pikachu is almost adorable.

Pikachu throughout the years.

Oh, man! What will come out of this Pokeball?! I can't wait until May 3rd (the day it opens).
