This is where words and such are to be typed in an organized forum for people to randomly shout out all their ideas at the same time.

Massage, er Message, about banner type things

How do I get things like favorite Email, Character and other things in that buttony good sidebar. With lots of Crap, --Jellote 03:50, 15 December 2008 (UTC) , master of time and space.

Using Show Preview

Hello Jellote, I see that you have made several consecutive edits to the same page. I want to point out the Show Preview button. It's right next to the Save Page button when you edit. You should use it whenever you are making a lot of experimental edits, for example when you are trying to get formatting right. Using the Show Preview button is quicker and easier than saving and clicking "edit" again, and will keep recent changes and page histories from being flooded. Thanks, BBG 04:21, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

Sorry, my mind works to fast to keep on one topic. I'll remember that. My mind just flysin jumps and sometimes I write without thinking. Applying that now, --Jellote 04:26, 15 December 2008 (UTC).

Attention!

There is a userbox contest. Whoever finds my hidden userbox can use it on their page. The admin, AKA --Jellote 20:49, 3 April 2009 (UTC)

found it. — Defender1031*Talk 20:50, 3 April 2009 (UTC)

Good. it was intentionally easy to find. The next time will be hard for even those who watch edits. --Jellote 20:53, 3 April 2009 (UTC)

N b/w tilde

I happened to come across your user page and noticed that you wanted to type "ñ". Well, not only do I have it there for you to copy on your clipboard an paste on your user page, but you can also access this key on a PC with the Alt-0241 (with the numbers input by the numeric pad while holding down the Alt key) for a lowercase "ñ", and Alt-0209 for a capital "Ñ". And on a Mac, you can access the lowercase and uppercase n with tilde by the key combos of ⌥(Option)-n-n or ⌥-n-N, respectively. Accessing the "⌥" character? No idea. I just copied it from a Unicode Chart --75.28.91.38 17:02, 9 April 2009 (UTC)

Wow! Thank you! --Jellote 23:45, 10 April 2009 (UTC)

Nasty

Hey There, Jellote. I deleted your comment "...you nasty" from Talk:cliffhangers. Please avoid personal attacks and don't call other editors names. Thanks you. Loafing 23:32, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

When I said that, I was refering to to the comment itself. His comment was focusing on a harsh adult topic, and I wanted to point out that he not say things like that. I'm sorry if it came off as me attacking him. --Jellote 00:00, 9 May 2009 (UTC)

The Cheat Being Eaten

Why did you create a page with a {{tbd}} tag and then immediately start a discussion whether to keep it? Please only create articles that you think make sense. If you're not sure whether an article idea makes sense or not, please discuss this before creating the article. Thanks, Loafing 23:32, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

I thought that all pages needed that template to start with. But if they don't, okay. I didn't think it needed to be discussed anyway. --Jellote 00:30, 9 May 2009 (UTC)

It's technically not wrong to start an article and bring it up for discussion in one process. Loafing remarks that an article you're not sure about should be discussed before it is created, but for borderline cases, it's probably okay to go ahead and make the article. The talk page for the proposed article is just as good a place as any to discuss whether the article should exist—possibly even the best place. It's usually not necessary to do that, though. In other words, if you're reasonably sure that the article should exist, there's no need to tag it. (Rest assured, if someone disagrees, they will be along sooner or later to tag it themselves.) — It's dot com 04:31, 10 May 2009 (UTC)

Calm down a bit

Hey there, Jellote, I need you tone it down a bit. You're letting yourself get way too annoyed at others in that debate over the Leg/Ledge spellings. It's just a cartoon about dumb animal characters; don't get fired up over it, please. Thanks. Catch you next time. Heimstern Läufer 23:33, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

I really don't have much of a life outside of H*R, so reality and this show are blurred. If someone ticks me off here, it is like someone ticking me off in real life. I can't help it, and I had an off day anyway. I will try to loosen up, but don't expect a miracle... I need a hobby...--Jellote 15:18, 20 May 2009 (UTC)

Hmm, if you can't calm down, you may find yourself running into some trouble on this website, since we're built on the idea of friendly, collegial interactions among editors. Remember, in real life, it's important to step back and restrain yourself when you are ticked off, otherwise you're held responsible for your poor actions. It is no different online and on this wiki. Just a friendly reminder. Heimstern Läufer 15:05, 21 May 2009 (UTC)

Spelling

Hey Jellote. I'll try to say this as politely as possible, I honestly don't mean this to be offensive or come across as antagonistic towards you. Your spelling is atrocious. Nearly every time you edit an article, it includes a spelling error. Use a spell checker. Thank you.  Green Helmet 17:23, 24 May 2009 (UTC)

I try my best to spell correctly. I just sometimes am pressured by annoyances (I.E. siblings) who make things harder. I am not offended at all, though. Everyone here has made a speelin' mistke b4. I hope it pleases you that I have recently taken to re-read all of my additions twice. --Jellote 17:30, 24 May 2009 (UTC)

Thanks, I appreciate the extra effort of re-reading things. I can't ask anything more. And yes, everyone does make spelling mistakes, my spelling is far from perfect too. That's why I recommended a spell checker, it helps a lot to let the computer do it for you :) A lot of browsers have it built in these days, and if not the feature can often be added with some add-on or plug-in.  Green Helmet 17:35, 24 May 2009 (UTC)

I find it ironic that your original message had a typo in in. No offense, or anything. --Jellote 17:38, 24 May 2009 (UTC)

hi

I want it to be known that I was one of the many heroes who put out the flames of the troll Lumpy. This is my memior of the incident. Please do not remove it, I want to keep it for prosterity.

i don't believe we've met before User:Lumpy {left this unsigned}.

Shut up you freaking Lump Sack. I hate you beyond belief. You have done nothing but deface the wiki. And when I give you a fair warning you DEFACE MY VERY OWN PAGE!!! How dare you mock me. All i did was give you a warning about trolling. For the last time, lumpy-headed boy: stop your trolling. Dorian, Dot Com, would someone please ban him. --Jellote 21:34, 30 May 2009 (UTC)

Em Dash Spacing

I don't know if you've noticed, but I've corrected some mistakes you've made involving the spacing around em dashes. [1] [2] [3] Thought I'd point it out. Okay. Take the care. OptimisticFool 01:56, 5 June 2009 (UTC)

Sure. Where is it parked? No seriously, thanks. I never knew there was a difference. I'll be on that. --Jellote 19:39, 5 June 2009 (UTC)

Signature

Hey there, Jellote. With regards to this edit: Please always include a text version of your username in your signature so that people know it's you. It's required. Also, if you don't know anything about a topic, then you really shouldn't be contributing to the discussion. If you really do want to contribute, but have no clue, then you could always look the topic up. On 'Kipedia, for example. Loafing 00:03, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

I forgot to sign it. I went back to fix it, okay? I was under pressure. As for Fuzzies, well that really wasn't a fuzzy after looking it up, anyway. --User:Jellote 00:53, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

I think you missed at least one point of Loafing's post.. your sig (still) does not contain a text version of your username.. OptimisticFool 01:03, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

Oh, that? That's just it. I have no idea why that is happening! I don't get it. I didn't try to do that. Can onyone help me? Please? This is getting annoying and bad for my reputation. Until then, I'll be careful about writing out my username. User:Jellote

You entered your email twice in your preferences. I fixed it for you. — It's dot com 01:07, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

Thanks, Dot Com. Let's see if it works... --Jellote 01:08, 14 June 2009 (UTC) YES! THANK YOU!!!

While we're on the topic, is this a legit signuture? <blue>Jellote wuz here</blue> if not, I understand and will change it. Until confirmed, I'll maually sign. User:Jellote

Sure, "Jellote wuz here" works. Not bad at all. I like it, anyway. OptimisticFool 05:41, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

Tact

Tact really is an excellent word, but I'm afraid you've been using it incorrectly. Tact is defined as "a keen sense of what to say or do to avoid giving offense; skill in dealing with difficult or delicate situations". Even if the word "tact" did apply to those edits, you cannot be tact just as you cannot be a keen sense of what to say or do. You can have tact, or be tactful, though.. and honestly, I hope that I have been tactful in this message. =] But as for the edits linked above, the word "tact" doesn't apply. There are lots of other words you could use, though. Here's my suggestion: Thesaurus.com. Start with.. professional, encyclopedic, concise.. I dunno. Here's to developing a strong vocabulary! <downs half a glass of Coke> .. =] OptimisticFool 05:41, 14 June 2009 (UTC)
