Any luck on finding those hitbox gifs? CpnFlacon (talk) 13:22, 1 February 2017 (EST)

Not yet. I know a guy that might know where they are, but I haven't had a good opportunity to talk with him about it yet. Disaster Flare (talk) 13:29, 1 February 2017 (EST)

Gotcha. Please keep me informed. CpnFlacon (talk) 22:47, 1 February 2017 (EST)

?

I'm having some difficulty with my account. I'm getting this message "There seems to be a problem with your login session; this action has been canceled as a precaution against session hijacking. Go back to the previous page, reload that page and then try again." ... On some pages, I'm logged in, on others, I'm not. I'll be logged in, and then when I go in to edit a result in, it says I'm not logged in. I'm not really sure what to do. Any idea why this may be happening? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Piledrivaaa (talk • contribs) 18:53, 6 February 2017‎ (EST)

Assuming you're using Google Chrome, the blame mostly lies with Google themselves, since they've started preventing people from logging into sites that don't have an HTTPS connection. Until Porplemontage upgrades the connection, the only way around this is to use a different browser. Disaster Flare (talk) 13:56, 6 February 2017 (EST)

Yeah, I'm using Chrome. Alright, thank you. Sorry for not signing my post, by the way. I came back to edit it and then it said I wasn't logged in again so I just didn't touch it because I don't want my IP address displayed publicly.Piledrivaaa (talk) 14:20, 6 February 2017 (EST)

I had this problem yesterday, but now I use Microsoft EDGE, cause that was the only other browser I have right now. It's laggy as hell though. Kirby's Crazy Appetite ~ 15:00, 6 February 2017 (EST)

For what it's worth, I'm having zero issues in Firefox. Miles (talk) 15:38, 6 February 2017 (EST)

Here goes

Here goes nothing. Okay so a while back I used an account called Yo Dawg to keep saying that Corrin was female after the user FlamesofRevolution said that he thought it might be a good idea to change it. After being (rightfully) blocked multiple times by you are Serpent King he apparently then blocked user FlamesofRevolution, as it appeared as though he did it. I recently noticed this while trying to find my account in the block log, and i noticed he was blocked indefinitely. I felt bad for him so I tried to tell Serpent King what happened on his talk page, but but he never responded (even though he had been active once or twice after I made the post. I would assume he did not believe that I was not FlamesofRevolution. But I can prove that I am not him, as if I was, why would I create another account just to use it to get my other one back, when I could just use the one I created. FlamesofRevolution is innocent, and I really hope this matter can be resolved. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mincecraft (talk • contribs) 21:11, 8 February 2017‎ (EDT)

Firstly, make sure to sign your comments (you can see how right above the edit box). Second, new talk page threads go at the bottom, not the top. Third, you must've missed it, but Serpent had already unblocked FlamesofRevolution after reading your message, so he did acknowledge it. As far as I'm aware, the matter is resolved for the most part. :P Disaster Flare (talk) 16:15, 8 February 2017 (EST)

Basic help for a newcomer

Hey, Flare. Forgive me, as I am completely new to this, but I don't have permission to create my user page, HookshotHotshot. I am signed in to that account, and I've been playing around with it for a while with no luck. I've checked the help desk as well, and couldn't find that topic. Why can't I create/edit my own user page? Is this normal?

Sorry for not understanding...

HookshotHotshot (talk) 13:14, 23 February 2017 (EST)

I may not be Flare, but I do know the answer to your question. You have to be autoconfirmed in order to do that stuff, so just wait a while and you'll be good. Aidan, the Lovely Dragon Warrior 13:17, 23 February 2017 (EST)

Thanks! I really appreciate it. (PS, I don't know how to indent my responses...)

HookshotHotshot (talk) 13:19, 23 February 2017 (EST)

You use a colon. Let me know if you have any more questions! Aidan, the Wandering Dragon Warrior 16:46, 23 February 2017 (EST)

Okay, will do.

In Regards to Chicago Melee PR Undone Edit

I wanted to update the PR to the one that was released about a week ago, but you undid the change and said to not "replace already-existing PRs". You didn't suggest what to do. Should I just have the new info take precedent at the top and still have the old info on the page? Sorry, obviously new to this, and I wanted to run it by you to make sure I do the right thing when I edit it again, thanks in advance. MattPopa (talk) 04:15, 27 February 2017 (EST)

Oh whoops, I guess I'm used to saying it on PR articles that make it clear what should be done. XD Essentially, we want all official PRs listed in order of relevance. What I mean by that is that the newest PR must be above the old PRs, and this trend continues until the PRs stop being released, if they ever do. However, a pretty major cleanup also needs to happen on the article, since it does not follow the standards of other PR articles, but I wouldn't worry about doing that too much since you're a new user and those templates can be pretty complicated to work with at first. Disaster Flare (talk) 12:10, 27 February 2017 (EST)

Alright, I've updated the Chicago Melee PR article to fit what seems to be the standard for PR pages. If you could, please let me know if the changes I made are alright; I've tried to learn a bit more on how the wiki works and I'm also gonna try and contact the previous PR creator to see if I can get the old PRs on the page as well. Once again, thanks in advance for your help. MattPopa (talk) 03:48, 1 March 2017 (EST)

Wow, color me impressed. You got it exactly how it needed to be. You have my thanks for cleaning that mess up. If you do manage to get the previous PRs, that would be greatly appreciated. :D Disaster Flare (talk) 13:18, 1 March 2017 (EST)

Seeking Advice

Hi, I'm a pretty new editor here. I've been updating the page for PM Snake and part of that effort is to create smasher pages that don't exist yet so that the notable players section doesn't have dead links. I'm starting with my own page since I'm still learning how to edit wiki pages and such. I made a very small starting page, saved changes, looked at another smasher article to examine its structure, then came back to find the page was deleted because I had put in "zero effort."

What would you recommend I do differently the second time around? FlashingFire (talk) 23:38, 13 March 2017 (EDT)
