+ | For your contributions these past few weeks, in particular your taking on both the task of adding links for things that need to be linked to and the task of transcribing Easter Eggs, I present you with this Iron cup of Brunswick Stew.[[User:Tom|<nowiki></nowiki>]] -- [[User:Tom|Tom]] 15:32, 19 Mar 2005 (MST) | ||
- | + | :Whoa! And here I thought no one noticed me! Thank you very much. Clearly I need to spend even more time on the Wiki so I can earn a trophy full of Steak'ums. :) (BTW, I love typing and copying things. If there's anything that needs to be copied that I'm missing, let me know!) [[User:Homestar Coder|Aurora Szalinski]] 23:14, 19 Mar 2005 (MST) | |

- | + | Hey, I've been using the H*R Wiki for a while to check updates to the site, and now I've recently decided to give editing some of the stubs a try. I just wanted to say I was amazed by how quickly you've started putting the new April Fool's Day page information up, and to say thanks for the hard work. :) [[User:JackoRougburn|JackoRougburn]] 1:25, 01 Apr 2005 (CST) | |
- | + | Thanks! It's just because I'm a fast typist (that's part of being a Homestar Coder ;) ) [[User:Homestar Coder|Aurora Szalinski]] 00:29, 1 Apr 2005 (MST) | |

I'm rather proud of that. ;) Anyway, thanks again for the help, and if I run into a problem again, I know who to ask. [[User:JackoRougburn|JackoRougburn]] 3:12, 01 Apr 2005 (CST) | |

- | + | Aurora, sorry I guess I don't know the etiquitte. You'll notice that what I did was strike out his text because he changed his vote below. I figured he just forgot to strike out his old vote, so I did that for him. If I had changed my vote in a similar manner, I wouldn't have minded someone doing similarly for me.

+ | Oh, if you block someone for defacing something, you don't need to add them to the [[HRWiki:WikiTroll|WikiTroll list]]. That's really just there to bring defacement to the sysops attention. Just providing a summary of their defacement in the "Reason" box on the [[Special:Blockip|block page]] is fine. Thanks.[[User:Tom|<nowiki></nowiki>]] -- [[User:Tom|Tom]] 00:23, 28 Apr 2005 (UTC) | ||

I meant more that we don't usually put down things that involve "if you roll over this button, then roll over that button, etc. etc. it looks glitchy."

+ | |||
+ | Hey there Aurora, I was just curious about the transcript you made for the radio interview. Are radio interviews fair game as far as transcripts go, or did you have to ask the people for permission? I'm not much of the legal fellow, so I was just wondering.

+ | ==Siggie== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Hi Aurora. I just thought I'd pass a bit of [[User:JoeyDay|Joey Day]] wisdom on to you about sigs. (I've been going through most the sysops slowly) Have you tried the template sig meathod? Basically it lets you shorten your code left behind, and lets you change ALL your sigs at the same time. You just put your sig code on a subpage of your userpage, (e.g. 'User:Homestar Coder/sig' or something). Then in your prefferances box, put <nowiki>{{User:Homestar Coder/sig}}</nowiki> as your signature. And that's all there is to it. After that, if you ever change your sig on your subpage, it'll change all of the ones you've put since you started it. It sure changed my life. spread the word! {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 21:47, 21 May 2005 (UTC) | ||
