[edit] About LUE

LUE (Life, the Universe, and Everything) is a message board on GameFAQs, notorious for causing trouble throughout the Web.

The truth is much more complicated. Google it if you want to know more. I suggest not even bother; they're just a troll group. Kamek 20:58, 15 Dec 2004 (MST)

Ironic that some of their stuff is being deleted by 42, eh? -- FortyTwo

LOL, I didn't even notice that. Kamek 21:03, 15 Dec 2004 (MST)

Yeah, thanks for getting a bunch of stuff off my page -- The Real Zajac

[edit] Nicknames

Hey, cool idea adding nicknames to the character pages. It's nice to have them in one place like that. Do you think it would be worthwhile to expand to every character? -- Tom 17:27, 25 Dec 2004 (MST)

Thanks! After doing Strong Sad and Homestar I realize just how many names Strong Bad has for everyone. Some characters will only have one or two, though. Maybe we should start an article devoted to just Strong Bad's names and take them of the individual biographies. What do you think? --FortyTwo 17:31, 25 Dec 2004 (MST)

You know what, I think that sounds better. It'd be crazy cool to see them all together. I remember having something like this about The Cheat, about what the other characters called him. (Before it was removed somehow...) That might help you out. -- Tom 17:38, 25 Dec 2004 (MST)

Okay, how's this: I'll start a new page for all the nicknames and link to it in Related Changes. Thanks for the help! --FortyTwo 17:45, 25 Dec 2004 (MST)

Er, I don't think Related Changes works like that. It's one of those special MediaWiki functions that displays what changes have been recently made to pages that are linked to the current page. Yeah, it's kind of a weird function. You can just work the link to the nicknames page into the article somehow. -- Tom 17:54, 25 Dec 2004 (MST)

Sorry, mistype. I meant "Related Pages." --FortyTwo 17:59, 25 Dec 2004 (MST)

Related pages? -- Tom 18:05, 25 Dec 2004 (MST)

Sorry again; I'm thinking faster than I type and leaving stuff out! On the Characters page, I put a link to Nicknames from Strong Bad under Related pages.

Ah ha, I see it now. Very good. -- Tom 18:10, 25 Dec 2004 (MST)

Hope you don't mind, I moved your nicknames to a generic page called Nicknames, since Strong Bad isn't the only one who gives out nicknames. :P Kamek 15:03, 15 Jan 2005 (MST)

Hey, no problem. It's a Wiki, after all. Expanding the nicknames is a good idea; I'm looking forward to seeing Homsar's list. --FortyTwo 15:53, 15 Jan 2005 (MST)

[edit] Sig

Hey, I just noticed your note in the sandbox about not having a tilde key on your laptop. There's a signature button, second from the right above the edit box that uses JavaScript to insert a sig. Just for you. -- Tom 20:15, 25 Dec 2004 (MST)

Well, whaddya know (Haddi-Man)! Thanks! --FortyTwo 20:24, 25 Dec 2004 (MST)

[edit] Troll Hunter

Looking through the recent changes, I have to dub thee "Troll Hunter"

And FortyTwo smote the Troll, and all was laid to burnination

Good job! - Dr Haggis - Talk 10:00, 27 Dec 2004 (MST)

I thank thee, good sir, and endeavor to bring honour to the title that thou hast bestow'd upon me. Huzzah! -- FortyTwo 20:30, 27 Dec 2004 (MST)

Hi there, FortyTwo (The Answer to Life, the Universe, and Everything!) Thanks for removing the trollage from my user space the other day. Good eye for those random "keyboard mashings" on one of those "no name brand" edits. Much appreciated! --The Paper 22:46, 3 Jan 2005 (MST)

Thanks, The Paper! Long may you Preeeow! -- FortyTwo 11:39, 5 Jan 2005 (MST)

I am proud to present you with the new "Defender of the Wiki" barnstar. Keep up the good work. - Dr Haggis - Talk 14:08, 20 Jan 2005 (MST)

Oh, wow. This is more than for which I ever could have asked. *sniff* I'd like to thank all the little people. And the big people. And the medium-sized people. And the rather-tall-yet-slender people. I do this for you, whoever you are. Thank you, and Todd bless America. -- FortyTwo 21:15, 20 Jan 2005 (MST)

[edit] De-Trolling

Thanks for all the help catching that troll. You are the troll hunter. Thanks. →[[User:FireBird|FireBird]] You just pa-troll and de-troll da trolls. Poofy

[edit] You're awesome!

I just wanted to say that anyone who hates trolls that much is awesome. I hate them, too, and hope never to be one. Keep up the awesome anti-troll work, and Visit HomeStar Runner Constantly! :) mathgrant 19:56, 11 Jan 2005 (MST)

[edit] Text Adventures

Thanks. I meant that I was working on a text adventure on the fanstuff, but forgot I was talking on the normal wiki. I was also wondering if you are a fan of Douglas Adams' book. I am. OK BYE. -- User:CGNU_Grad

[edit] Admin nomination

I have nominated you with Tom for administrator-ship. I don't know if they need more at the time, but I think you would do a great job. It would be great if you could block Trolls instantly rather than have to do the "ol'chase-n'log" dance. - Dr Haggis - Talk 23:20, 26 Jan 2005 (MST)

I concur! mathgrant 12:28, 27 Jan 2005 (MST)

This wiki is getting bigger and more popular every day. With trolls attacking the wiki all the time, we need more admins that can block these trolls before they do significant damage to the wiki. FortyTwo, you would be the perfect admin for the job. —Kilroy/_talk[[]] 15:47, 27 Jan 2005 (MST)

Wow. Thanks for all these nice comments, you guys. Really, I didn't think I'd made that much of an impression. Thank you.

I'm really honored that you nominated me to be an admin. It has crossed my mind a few times, like when I'm watching a trolling in progress (like the barrage of SsS* spam) and wishing that I could just block them right away instead of following them from page to page.

But... I've only been on this Wiki for a month, and most of that month was during my winter break, so I could spend most the day on here guarding the Wiki from trolls. Now that I'm back in school, I've stopped visiting as often. I still drop by multiple times per day, but I don't want to disappoint anyone I'm expected to be as quick at reverting pages as I was one week ago. Also, since I've been here a month, there's still a lot about Wikis in general that I don't know, and I don't want to step on anyone's toes.

That having been said, if I were made an admin, I would absolutely love it. I would definitely use my powers for awesome. But before I get too excited about it, I'll just wait to see what the real admins have to say about it. :-)

(And, since I can't say it enough, thanks!) -- FortyTwo 18:04, 27 Jan 2005 (MST)

[edit] Sysop

Just letting you know, you have been given sysop privileges. If you have any questions, never hesitate to ask. Thanks. -- Tom 20:52, 5 Feb 2005 (MST)

CONGRATURATION —woddfellow2|✎ 13:00, 11 Feb 2005 (MST)

Hey, good job there, FortyTwo! →[[User:FireBird|FireBird]]

It is good to have a sharper troll hunting sword. Congraturation. - Dr Haggis - Talk 10:14, 6 Feb 2005 (MST)

Congrats, and welcome to the team. We're confident you'll make a grood sysop. —JoeyDay (Talk) 23:01, 27 Feb 2005 (MST)

[edit] OAOO?

Regarding your recent revert of my changes to Pom Pom's character page, what does "OAOO" stand for?

- 141.151.177.33

That would be HRWiki:Once And Only Once. -- Tom 22:29, 13 Feb 2005 (MST)

[edit] Wedding Date

I'm not sure if I'm supposed to post stuff like this here, but this info. is only FYI. Your wedding date is one day after my birthday and the day the 6th Harry Potter book comes out! Feel free to delete this text, I don't mind! Fizz123

[edit] Thanks (another deletable post)

Hey! I KNEW there had to be someone who liked homestar and also knew the meaning of life! (I'm from Sevorbeupstry myself) YES!! I just wanted to say how incredibly cool those little flash buttons are. I'm going to use them all the time/ wish i knew about them 2 years ago! haven't figured out how to log on yet... my screen name is usually norman rorqual. Like i said, you can delete this if you want, just wanted to say hi.

Hey! I used "Forty-Two times!" as a random quote in my friends yearbook freshman year! -Thechamp 02:11, 1 Oct 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Hey!

Sorry about the late as funk reply (I've been busy playing Life with Connect Four.) but thanks for commenting on my Talk page. I swear to all that is Chapman I'll stay more updated (and logged in) on the Wiki. BLAH. --(U)(T)(C) 08:03, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
