SB Email 51
In your introduction, you said you were watching "SBEmail #51, dragon!" Dragon is really email # 58. Is this correct? —BazookaJoe 11:09, 20 Aug 2005 (UTC)
Hey, you're right! I'll just go fix it... — The Chort 11:11, 20 Aug 2005 (UTC)
Not Ken
From the old FAQ:
Q: That drawing of Homestar in the fan section is NOT Michael Jackson like you said. Did you know that? Same with that one you said is Ken from Street Fighter. You guys are wrong!! (shortened to "Mistakes on fan art drawings?" in the FAQ body) A: We know. We've seen the movie and the cartoon. It's a joke. Now leave us alone.
It was a joke. --Senorial Jay (Convolutions) 16:36, 24 Aug 2005 (UTC)
Well, how has I to know that?! I never read the obsolete Email FAQ. I don't even know what the heck Street Fighter/Dragon Ball Z is! That's it, I'm going to sulk. {sulks} - The Chort 10:52, 26 Aug 2005 (UTC)
Signature
Your new sig looks great, but you may want to consider having it link to your userpage instead of just being text. If you need help, feel free to ask. Username-talk 17:50, 11 Sep 2005 (UTC)
Whoops! My bad! Hang on a minute....fixed it! – The Chort 17:54, 11 Sep 2005 (UTC)
Interwiki links
Hey The Chort. You have a popular name! At least, different versions of it seem to be. By the way, you can use an interwiki link to link to the Fanstuff, like this: [[HRFWiki:pagename]]
. So, if you wanted, your sentence on your page could be: For the "The Chort" who uses the Fanstuff Wiki (not the same person as me), click here. — It's dot com 17:21, 21 Sep 2005 (UTC)
Thanks, It's dot com! You rock! – The Chort 17:51, 21 Sep 2005 (UTC)
Tae Kwon Do
Wow... your a white belt in Tae Kwon Do, that's cool since I'm a black belt. --Danny 23:43, 3 Oct 2005 (UTC)
Yeah, pity white is the lowest belt you can have! – The Chort 16:59, 4 Oct 2005 (UTC)
Birthday Deuce!
Combolations on your hundredth birfday! Username-talk 18:19, 12 October 2005 (UTC)
You look lively! Happy Birthday! — Elcool (talk)(contribs) 18:51, 12 October 2005 (UTC)
Aw, thanks, guys! – The Chort 15:55, 13 October 2005 (UTC)
Great jorb!
Nice work on taking down that troll earlier! — User:ACupOfCoffee@ 20:18, 15 October 2005 (UTC)
It's all in a day's work! – The Chort 12:03, 16 October 2005 (UTC)
Image Maintenance
You have a good eye for noticing subtile differences. Thank you for pointing out all those old and duplicate images scattered throughout the wiki's image gallery. Your efforts help the sysops enforce the image use policy and we all appreciate your efforts. —THE PAPER PREEEOW 18:46, 26 October 2005 (UTC)
No probalo! – The Chort 18:47, 26 October 2005 (UTC)
- Let's only mark for deletion any image that is violating the image policy above (wrong format, poor quality, etc.) or is an exact or near exact duplicate of another image. The two images you marked for deletion recently were different enough from other images that I coudn't really consider them duplicates. All these images are a big job, though, and I applaud you again for being willing to tackle them. Rock, rock on. — It's dot com 16:51, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
- For the time being, please take "unused on the wiki" out of your list of reasons to mark an image for deletion. It's okay for them to just sit on the server. :) — It's dot com 20:33, 26 December 2005 (UTC)
- Nah. When we upgraded to the new server, we got gobs o' space. w00t! — It's dot com 15:37, 27 December 2005 (UTC)
Linking
Hey The Chort. I've noticed that a lot if not all of your links on talk pages are external links, like this, instead of internal links, like this. Instead of [http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php/Help:Link Help:Link]
, you can (and should) just type [[Help:Link]]
. Hope that helps. :) — It's dot com 21:42, 26 October 2005 (UTC)
Oh, right. Okay, then. – The Chort 13:38, 27 October 2005 (UTC)
YO YO YO
YO it's NOT BILLY BOB BOB here to ask you. Have you ever not gotton your SBemail answerd well then send it to me and i'll answer it close to how good ol' SB and mabey i'll includ some crappy microsoft paint drawings...MABEY! But just put your SBemail in my talk pannal. With your name of corse! BYE -NOT Billy Bob Bob
Err...look, NOT BILLY BOB BOB....can I just call you NBBB?....Look NBBB, I don't mean to offend you but ARE YOU COMPLETELY NUTS?! Wait, don't answer that question. I mean, why would I want to send Strong Bad an email when he pretty much answerd all my questions in sb email 22? And even if I did want my email answerd, why would I even think about sending it to some nutter who can't spell correctly and greets people with "YO YO YO"? I thought that fad died out last decade. Also, I belive Fan Fictions are inferior to the genuine product, which is why I rarely visit to the Fanstuff Wiki. Now quit sending me spam or I'll sue. – The Chort 13:54, 27 October 2005 (UTC)
Oh-STUFF'd Hundred Hours
Hey The Chort. Just curious, but why did you STUFF that fact? It seems like a pretty straightforward explanation to me. — It's dot com 21:20, 3 November 2005 (UTC)
- The Chort, when stuffing a fact, you should probably put down an argument for or against so Savings is my left name, Ms. America! — Senor Cardgauge, Senor Mortgage
No, it can't be heaven. There's not enough twinkies. — Strong Bad, Where the Crap are We?
I cut the crust off in the morning light... — Homestar, origins we know why it's being stuffed. Homestar Coder 22:46, 3 November 2005 (UTC)
Sorry for any inconvenience I caused. I just thought the fact was fairly obvious and didn't need mentioning. Like that fact about R&R. And you must know that I had STUFFED the fact just before I had to go to bed so I didn't have time to explain why I STUFFED it. Augh...I knew I was going to regret this idea for the rest of my life...crap – The Chort 16:47, 4 November 2005 (UTC)
- Meh, I'm sure you'll get over it. Everybody makes mistakes at some point. Just be sure to include an argument in the future, and everything will be fine. Since it's being overehelmingly and unanimously accepted, I'm gonna go ahead and close the item now. — It's dot com 16:50, 4 November 2005 (UTC)
Well, if it's okay with you, I'm gonna stick to voting on STUFF instead of STUFFING the items themselves. It was the first time I ever tried it and I don't know what I was thinking at the time. I only did it because I wanted to be the guy too. But I'm just a kid. Maybe when I'm older... – The Chort 11:20, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
Don't bite
Please don't bite the anonnies. A simple "reverted" is all that's necessary, especially when someone might have a good reason (at least to him or her) why an edit would be appropriate. Thanks. — It's dot com 19:33, 9 November 2005 (UTC)

Thank you! I wanted to keep my user page short and neat, so I used a table. And if you think that's organized, you should see my maths exercise books! – The Chort 16:56, 22 November 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for retitling the page I made. I was kind of embarassed by the error. Homsarroks

That's OK. It was the first time (and possibly only) in my life I could legally move a page! – The Chort 20:00, 23 November 2005 (UTC)
The English!?
Original telegram:
Greetings, Sir Strong Bad! STOP
I am from England. STOP
What are your thoughts on the English? STOP
Many thanks, STOP
What do I think about the English, huh? OH! I'LL TELL YOU WHAT I THINK ABOUT THE ENGLISH!!!... I think their muffins are exemplatory!

Twelve days
I just thought I'd let you know that I'm really enjoying your twelve days of Decemberween. Nevermind the bullocks, Heimstern Läufer 16:55, 5 December 2005 (UTC)
Thanks! I decided to do this for 3 reasons:
- It was shorter than doing an 24 day advent calender.
- It's a great way to getting people to visit regularly.
- It's the perfect excuse for filling up my user page with images.
– The Chorte 17:52, 5 December 2005 (UTC)
- I'm enjoying it so far. Keep it up!

I'll probably stop on the 13th. The original song only went up to 12 days. Don't blame me, blame the carol singers! – The Chort 13:51, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
- NEXT EPISODE CAROL SINGERS, NEXT EPISODE!!!!!!!!!! — talk Bubsty edits 20:25, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
- Man, that is one sweet new Christmas carol. I just sang through the whole thing. I'll have to see if I can get the whole family to go through it next time.
- Oh, and I'm just wondering if maybe you want the ninth day to read "nine butts a-dancing" instead of just "nine butts dancing"...? It just seems more rhythmic (and funnier) that way. Heimstern Läufer
17:24, 20 December 2005 (UTC)
Sure, why not? – The Chort 12:50, 21 December 2005 (UTC)
- I think Butts a-grabbing is funnier, but the song is over now. Oh, well. — Elcool (talk)(contribs) 17:41, 27 December 2005 (UTC)
- Bravo! I thuroughly enjoyed it. It's an idea the is sure to be plagerized for years to come!

To answer your question
I believe that it is true that the DVD came out before the CD, however, the bonus extra was made before a final cover was picked.. I was wrong. The DVD came out about a week before the CD. Rogue Leader / (my talk) 18:11, 29 December 2005 (UTC)
- Rogue, you were wrong about your wrongness. Did you take a look at the year of the dates? — Elcool (talk)(contribs) 18:16, 29 December 2005 (UTC)
Song
Good song! No, I really don't think Simon Cowell would tear you apart. Bluebry muffin 20:32, 15 January 2006 (UTC)
- Thank you! It was actually just a version of "If you're happy and you know it, clap your hands" I thought up on the spot. – The Chort 20:34, 15 January 2006 (UTC)
- Yeh, I noticed that. BTW, can YOU find all of the eggs? Bluebry muffin 22:11, 15 January 2006 (UTC)
cool people
It would be awsome if you put a cool people list on your page. TheThingé 22:05, 21 January 2006 (UTC)
- Maybe I'll think about it {yawns} tomorrow. I'm tired. Zzzzzz... – The Chort 22:15, 21 January 2006 (UTC)
- I've decided not to. I bet you've only asked me to add a cool people list so you can be on it. Am I right? Remember that little chat you had with E.L. Cool? We don't want Awesome Users lists to become the next Guestbook fad, do we? Besides, I'm going to do a Caption Contest instead. – The Chort 18:17, 24 January 2006 (UTC)
Hey.
I've been checking back regularly ever since your "12 Days of Decemberween" song. Now I'm a user and I'd like to say hello! --Nintendostar_Runner
Hello! – The Chort 16:30, 23 January 2006 (UTC)
Images
If you're uploading an image that should replace an existing one, go to the original one and click the "Upload a new version of this file" link near the bottom. Whatever you upload there will replace the original one. That way, the sysops won't have so many images to delete. — User:ACupOfCoffee@ 18:26, 1 February 2006 (UTC)
What? I have never uploaded an image in my entire life! I can't spell you! – The Chort 18:28, 1 February 2006 (UTC)
- Never mind. I thought you had uploaded Image:PomPomSkipper2.PNG, as a replacement for Image:PomPomSkipper.PNG and then marked the latter one for deletion. I'm going to back and revert what I thought was fixing your mistakes. (You didn't actually make any.) — User:ACupOfCoffee@ 18:32, 1 February 2006 (UTC)
HRWIKI:Welcome
Why did you delete it saying "Messed up user?" TheThingé
- I marked it for deletion with "user messed up" because I thought you made a mistake. I thought you accidently created a page that wasn't needed. Come to think of it, it does sound a bit rude. I better change it. – The Chort 15:10, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
Good Bye
I've been writeing long messages to people about this but I'm just gonna cut to the chase: Good Bye I'm leaving if you want to say your bye do it on my talk page and do it soon because I leave saterday

Caption Contest
Hey there, The Chort! I'd like to let you know some information about your Caption Contest. Although I really like the idea, you need to move it elsewhere. Seriously did the same thing with the competition. You will either need to move it to your talk page or the Fanstuff. Just thought I'd bring this up. See this discussion, if anything else pops up. ♥ teeeffoh! 17:33, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
- I knew this would happen eventually. Sadly, I don't have a Fanstuff account and if I wanted to create one, I'd have to choose a different name because there's already a The Chort there! I bet he hasn't been on for months now. Ok then. I'll move it to this here talk page. But not just now. I'm busy. Playing a game. Warbears or something like that... – The Chort 18:35, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
Dummy edits.
Hi man, no need to edit your page for updates to be seen. Just purge it. I have a purge botton at the top of my page for those cases. — Elcool (talk)(contribs) 17:47, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
- Purge the whatnow? Oh, right, clear the browser's history somehow. Ok, I'll just go and add a purge button onto my toolbox. You know, just in case I ever need to use it.
- Isn't technology amazing/confusing/magic? – The Chort 18:29, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
Image deletion
The Chort, where do you intend to get the image from? I'm using background-image, which has been implemented to only use images on this server, first of all. Secondly, it's my one user image. Thirdly, I don't believe an equivalent transparent image is available.
I apologize if there's an obvious reason for marking it for deletion, I just don't see it at the moment. -- 205.222.248.72 17:31, 3 March 2006 (UTC) (Jweb Guru, no time to log in)
- Er, doesn't it take as long to say "no time to log in" and "I'll answer later" as it would to just log in and answer now? But never mind that. ;) The image should not be marked for deletion or as abandoned, because it is currently in use on his user page (although it's not linked to in the normal way, so that's where the confusion arose). — It's dot com 17:53, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
- Edit Conflict Ok, I'm back. I'm not exactly sure what you're talking about so I'll explain what I did and why I did it. Firstly, I marked Image:276001.jpg as abandoned as it wasn't being used on your user page. Maybe I should have asked for your consent before I added that. Secondly, I tried to add a To Be Deleted tag onto Image:Jweb Ibanez Artcore AF75.png because I thought that you had replaced it with an identical image which was held on a different server. I guess I messed up pretty good. I'm sorry for any confusion caused, including my own. I've been here for over half a year and I'm still not sure how this wiki works! Oh, and BTW, I really had to go downstairs and eat dinner. It's almost 18:00 over here in England and I still live with my parents, you know! I'm 15! – The Chort 17:57, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
- The Chort: Okay, cool. Thanks for adding TBD to the other image, by the way, it needed it (but consent, or at least notification, would be cool in the future).
- It's dot com, I just couldn't waste the time to log on, because I'm at a public terminal and would have had to log off, taking even more time. Does look a little silly, though.
- (edit conflict) England, eh? Well, I'll tell you what I think of—oh wait, someone's already done that one. :) — It's dot com 18:13, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
- I know several have done that one to me. =3 Just coz England's one of my favourite places in the world, even. --DorianGray

Personal images
It is our policy not to delete images unless we absolutely have to. Please stop telling people to mark images for deletion. It's sufficient for users with too many personal images to simply remove them from use (they should not be linked to from any page) and mark them as abandoned. Thanks one million. — It's dot com 15:22, 25 March 2006 (UTC)
- I'm really sorry for any incovenience caused. I didn't know that they could just be left as abandoned. I've been on this wiki for almost a year now and I'm still not very good at this wiki thing. I'll go and adjust all the messages. – The Chort 15:27, 25 March 2006 (UTC)
Hello The Chort
I just wanted to let you know I changed the HTML code in your sig. I just changed all the <font color="orange">'s to <span style="color: orange;"> so that we can be valid with XHTML/CSS standards and stuff. Don't worry, it should still look exactly the same. Ed smilde/talk 16:17, 8 April 2006 (UTC)
