Cloud nerf

Hello. My brother Swagman might have told you about me. If not, my name is Prankster. I like to cheat or be a noob in games. But Swagman says he found that Cloud received a nerf! If you want more info, maybe you should talk to him. He doesn't want anyone to steal his claim. I have no idea why...Prankster (talk) 22:35, 9 February 2016 (EST)

What's the nerf, then? Serpent King 22:37, 9 February 2016 (EST)

Cloud's back air no longer auto-cancels in a short hop. Will you put down in the summery that Swagman discovered it? I'm sure he's right. He is a Cloud main.Prankster (talk) 23:12, 9 February 2016 (EST)

Another Cloud main right here: Cloud's back aerial still autocancels in a short hop, it is the timing that has always been super strict... are you sure you're not Swagman??? The way you described the nerf and you wrote you are his his brother makes me doubt. -- BeepYou, a user with no grammar at all :v (talk) 03:44, 10 February 2016 (EST)

Take a look at his talk page. Serpent King 03:51, 10 February 2016 (EST)

I'm dying in laughter right now. So much I think I woke up my parents. Well... gotta go then!! -- BeepYou, a user with no grammar at all :v (talk) 03:54, 10 February 2016 (EST)

Well, so much for that... Anyway, continuing what BeepYou said about Cloud. His short hop lasts for 37 frames and back aerial autocancels on frame 37 onwards. Just in case you wanted to know. Drill Blaster Mark 2 (talk) 05:28, 10 February 2016 (EST)

Signature

My sig doesn't look that big to me. What size is it allowed to be? TheSilentHero 13:35, 10 February 2016 (EST)

Think the standard is 11 pt. Serpent King 13:36, 10 February 2016 (EST)

That's strange. When I change my signature's size to 11pt, it becomes really huge. Here's a pic for comparison: [1]. TheSilentHero 13:41, 10 February 2016 (EST)

You know, I don't think I have the font installed. That's probably the problem. Arial 11pt may look bigger than Onyx 11pt etc. Serpent King 13:42, 10 February 2016 (EST)

Is it smaller now? TheSilentHero 13:49, 10 February 2016 (EST)

Yes, thank you :P Serpent King 13:50, 10 February 2016 (EST)

hello

can you please restore my SSBD page for hitmonchan so i can copy paste to here then delete them when im done Poultry(talk) the fluffy 16:01, 10 February 2016 (EST)

nvm im good now Poultry(talk) the fluffy 17:03, 10 February 2016 (EST)

Yin10dou?

Um, according to SmashWiki:Talk pages#Editing and removing your comments, you can remove a comment if no one has responded to it, which is what he just did. ---Preceding unsigned comment added by cupid♥. Or maybe DatNuttyKid. 22:12, 11 February 2016 (EST)

"The only possible exception to this is when you post something you think is not needed (such as if you're asking a question that you noticed has been already answered on the talk page), and remove it immediately before another user responds to it."-SW:TALK. The question has not been answered previously, as in the example given. Also, it's the only possible exception, which to me means that it's preferable not to take this route, and this user is a repeat offender of talk content removal. Serpent King 22:18, 11 February 2016 (EST)

"such as if you're asking a question...". It's an example, not the sole reason. If he decided that it's pointless to ask, as long as it's not disrupting any talk page conversation - which it is not - there shouldn't be a problem with him removing his own comment before anyone else responds. ---Preceding unsigned comment added by cupid♥. Or maybe DatNuttyKid. 22:24, 11 February 2016 (EST)

^ I agree with that; in fact I think I've done it once before. Unowninator (talk) 22:27, 11 February 2016 (EST)

Also, where was he warned for that before...? I don't see it on his talk page and I don't think it counts as an official warning if it's in an edit summary. ---Preceding unsigned comment added by cupid♥. Or maybe DatNuttyKid. 22:28, 11 February 2016 (EST)

I do admit that I forgot about that bit of the policy... It's such a large one and this is such a minute detail. Well live and learn then lol. Serpent King 22:29, 11 February 2016 (EST)

In edit summaries, and it counts. That part isn't written in stone anywhere Serpent King 22:29, 11 February 2016 (EST)

It probably would be more appropriate to give him a warning on a talk page though. The chances of him missing that one edit are pretty big - he tabs out and someone starts sorting through licenses, or he logs off for a few hours, etc. Talk pages are always there. Edit summaries sometimes take digging. ---Preceding unsigned comment added by cupid♥. Or maybe DatNuttyKid. 23:04, 11 February 2016 (EST)

Well uh

Your idea for update changes transclusion is a bit more...backwards than what I expected, in that you grouped things by update instead of by character. I'm not really sure which way is better right now. Toomai Glittershine The Chilled 23:20, 11 February 2016 (EST)

I figured by update would mean less pages so I went with that. There is a reason I haven't gone and applied it to anything yet though, I was waiting to hear what you and others thought. Serpent King 23:21, 11 February 2016 (EST)

Less pages yes, but also more stuff per page, so personally that's a wash. I'll have to think about it. Toomai Glittershine The Rainbow 23:23, 11 February 2016 (EST)

Oh also, easier to tack on patches if more come out this way. Serpent King 23:24, 11 February 2016 (EST)

I'd like to direct your attention...

to this. Hellonintendo9's at it again. Disaster Flare (talk) 13:54, 12 February 2016 (EST)

And I'm pretty sure some parts of it are borderline vandalism and trolling. Disaster Flare (talk) 13:56, 12 February 2016 (EST)

Why didn't you just report it at the Admin noticeboard? Unowninator (talk) 22:23, 12 February 2016 (EST)

Either way works. I took care of it (kind of, will probably leave a talk message) Serpent King 22:24, 12 February 2016 (EST)

Happy Valentines Day!

A favor to ask

Seeing as how you, as an admin, have the ability to bring deleted pages back, can you bring this back for me for just a few minutes? I'm wanting to transfer it over to the now separate SSBD Wiki, and I don't wanna have to do it from scratch. Aidan, the Lovely Dragon Warrior 23:30, 13 February 2016 (EST)

Yeah, sure thing. Serpent King 23:52, 13 February 2016 (EST)

K done, just let me know when to shut it back down. Serpent King 23:55, 13 February 2016 (EST)

Alright, I think I got all I needed. I'll bug you again if I missed something. Aidan, the Lovely Dragon Warrior 00:01, 14 February 2016 (EST)

Hello Mr. Serpent King

Serpent King, I'm back! That means it is time to do some major editing. The wiki needs it!Swagman (talk) 23:30, 13 February 2016 (EST)

I don't know why, but on the update 1.1.4 page, it says cloud didn't receive nerfs despite me putting one in. Can someone help me?Swagman (talk) 23:47, 13 February 2016 (EST)

Proof of this is needed. Serpent King 23:54, 13 February 2016 (EST)

I'm not Serpent King, but when did you put this on because it probably got removed if you didn't give any proof. We use templates now, so you need to put it on 1.1.4's template, but you shouldn't put it on unless you got proof. No cloud changes are confirmed so far. You can ask me any questions in my talk, if you want. -- Ethan(Discussion) 23:57, 13 February 2016 (EST)

Oh, I heard from BeepYou about the nerf, but tell me to get rid of it if you want. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNNNNNNNNDDDDDDDDDDD, I suck.Swagman (talk) 00:02, 14 February 2016 (EST)

The nerf wasn't confirmed. I think I talked about it in his talk. Lets wait to when SmashBoards says anything as now it says TBD (To be determined). -- Ethan(Discussion) 00:05, 14 February 2016 (EST)

Thanks! ^_^. Are you working on Smash Bros Dream?Swagman (talk) 00:11, 14 February 2016 (EST)

Userbox

Look what I made ^_^.Swagman (talk) 02:07, 14 February 2016 (EST)

Thanks

Thanks for helping me. You shouldn't be an admin. YOU SHOULD BE HIGHER!!!Swagman (talk) 02:12, 14 February 2016 (EST)

As a reward for great work and a valentines day surprise(the former is the main reason)

Swagman (talk) 02:36, 14 February 2016 (EST)

Seems you'll never learn there are many other admins as well. I give up, I'm done... I'm so damn done... U_U -- BeepYou, a user with no grammar at all :v (talk) 02:42, 14 February 2016 (EST)

I know there are other admins like Miles and Toomai, but I only truly know SK.Swagman (talk) 02:44, 14 February 2016 (EST)

Not really a reason to give out a shining star, but thanks anyway I suppose. Serpent King 02:45, 14 February 2016 (EST)

You've helped a lot around the wiki, and you fix other's mistakes! Congrats!! I hope you become a bureaucrat like Toomai!Swagman (talk) 02:47, 14 February 2016 (EST)

I have 0 intention of running for bureaucrat any time soon. Today's (yesterday's, technically) big argument has proven to me that I have a lot of room for growth. Serpent King 02:49, 14 February 2016 (EST) 1. I'm surprised you still have room for improvement. 2. Still being an admin is OK. That's it! I'm tired enough! I'm going to sleep.Swagman (talk) 02:54, 14 February 2016 (EST)

Good night :P Serpent King 02:56, 14 February 2016 (EST)

Categories

Any page with a full list of them? -- BeepYou, a user with no grammar at all :v (talk) 06:21, 14 February 2016 (EST)

We have Special:Categories...but there's tens of thousands of them Serpent King 06:35, 14 February 2016 (EST)

Almost 1,500 to be exact (I'm not the only one that knows some math). Then I guess keeping track of my most used categories will be a pain in the neck. Lastly, I swear I didn't stole your templates and then copypasted them on my page, just to modify them... :V (actually I did) -- BeepYou, a user with no grammar at all :v (talk) 06:44, 14 February 2016 (EST)

Nah that's cool. By the way, the special page will only list 1500 cats at most. There are waaaaaay more than that. Serpent King 06:45, 14 February 2016 (EST)

Oh. Alright then. Sleep well. -- BeepYou, a user with no grammar at all :v (talk) 06:52, 14 February 2016 (EST)

You deleted the page I was just about to read.

http://www.ssbwiki.com/index.php?title=User:BeepYou/How_did_the_shield_mechanics_in_1.1.0_and_1.1.1_changed_characters%3F_(Detailed)

I never understood the shield change, and just when I clicked it... >________> Unowninator (talk) 20:10, 14 February 2016 (EST)

Lol sorry, user request. Serpent King 20:15, 14 February 2016 (EST)

Does that mean you can't tell me? Unowninator (talk) 20:17, 14 February 2016 (EST)

I could tell you (as I was the one who made it), but an explanation will be given on the depths of my user page. It is well hidden though. My quotes may give you a clue about it. -- BeepYou, a user with no grammar at all :v (talk) 20:23, 14 February 2016 (EST)

Tag suggestion

May I suggest that whenever you plan on closing a discussion, you give a last call for statements first? That would've allowed me to ask my question before you closed it, and would have also kept the argument about PG from happening. (Probably not Hammer though.) ---Preceding unsigned comment added by cupid♥. Or maybe DatNuttyKid. 18:59, 15 February 2016 (EST)

Yeah I guess I could do that. Which question are you referring to? Serpent King 19:05, 15 February 2016 (EST)

Asking if the reason Pit is the only person who calls her "Lady Palutena" is because he's the only person who refers to her by name at all or if there's other characters who regularly call her just "Palutena", and also pointing out Princess Peach and Princess Zelda.

It's not going to majorly change the decision and is really just my own curiosity (which is probably why I came to your talk page rather than just reverting it), but it did make me think that if someone did have a major point that could change the decision, having given a final call might have given them a chance to share it. (Or, at the very least, a better excuse for you if they try to revive the argument - "I gave everyone a warning that I would be closing it soon, you should've spoken up then.") ---Preceding unsigned comment added by cupid♥. Or maybe DatNuttyKid. 19:11, 15 February 2016 (EST)

Maybe Pit is trying to be noble.Swagman (talk) 22:01, 15 February 2016 (EST)

This. -- BeepYou, a user with no grammar at all :v (talk) 22:46, 15 February 2016 (EST)

Ummmm...maybe not putting MLP on my talk would be good? Serpent King 22:48, 15 February 2016 (EST)

:'V -- BeepYou, a user with no grammar at all :v (talk) 22:57, 15 February 2016 (EST)

Thanks for the "He's right you know"! It was funny! Swagman, the Green Swordsman 23:27, 15 February 2016 (EST)

New Sig

Check out my new and possibly last signature! Swagman, the Green Swordsman 23:25, 15 February 2016 (EST)

Nice. As a Cloud main, I like it. -- BeepYou, a user with no grammar at all :v (talk) 23:41, 15 February 2016 (EST)

Thanks! I made the colors on each side fit each character! Swagman, the Green Swordsman 23:43, 15 February 2016 (EST)

Dude...

He changed his IP to circumvent probation again. Disaster Flare (talk) 16:26, 17 February 2016 (EST)

either block him, make his probation infinite or protect all his userspace pages Poultry(talk) the fluffy 16:52, 17 February 2016 (EST)

What comes next when you do that? -- BeepYou, a user with no grammar at all :v (talk) 16:58, 17 February 2016 (EST)

what do you mean by that? Poultry(talk) the fluffy 17:02, 17 February 2016 (EST)

Changing IPs. -- BeepYou, a user with no grammar at all :v (talk) 18:59, 17 February 2016 (EST)

People can change their IP? -- Ethan(Discussion) 18:18, 17 February 2016 (EST)

yes, via proxies, also since he can use proxies the best bet is to just protect his userspace pages Poultry(talk) the fluffy 18:30, 17 February 2016 (EST)

I can range block, but I don't want to break that out unless absolutely necessary. I fully protected his userpage, also. Serpent King 21:54, 17 February 2016 (EST)

Moving a page

Right now I want to move Hyuga's page from Smasher:Hyuga (Mexico) to just Smasher:Hyuga. Though I'd like to leave a redirect with the name of Smasher:Hyuga (Mexico) to help differentiate from Dr. Z, who was formerly named Hyuga as well and dropped it in favor of HyugaRicdeau and later in favor of Dr. Z.

When I move the page, can I leave the redirect of Smasher:Hyuga (Mexico) while creating a disambiguation for Smasher:Hyuga (NorCal)? So we can finally end this mess between these two smashers? -- BeepYou, a user with no grammar at all :v (talk) 01:07, 19 February 2016 (EST)

I would just redirect Smasher:Hyuga (NorCal) to Smasher:Dr. Z but other than that, yeah. Serpent King 01:23, 19 February 2016 (EST)

Done. But the page of Hyuga won't even move an inch because: A page of that name already exists, or the name you have chosen is not valid. Please choose another name. Could you do it for me? -- BeepYou, a user with no grammar at all :v (talk) 01:27, 19 February 2016 (EST)

Done. Serpent King 01:35, 19 February 2016 (EST)

Thanks a lot Ryan :] -- BeepYou, a user with no grammar at all :v (talk) 01:36, 19 February 2016 (EST)

webchat

I was going to webchat, but realized I was banned. Swagman, the Green Swordsman 17:47, 19 February 2016 (EST)

Plz, don't tell him this. I'll make your ban longer. Penro ...that's all. 17:51, 19 February 2016 (EST)

Well, it's too late. Now there's nothing he can do, as erasing a message is against the rules... -- BeepYou, a user with no grammar at all :v (talk) 17:54, 19 February 2016 (EST)

What even is webchat? Is it a part of SmashWiki? Where you banned on Webchat or SmashaWiki? -- Ethan(Discussion) 17:56, 19 February 2016 (EST)

I believe he's referring to the IRC. Aidan, the Lovely Dragon Warrior 17:56, 19 February 2016 (EST)

(edit conflict) That's exactly what I was going to say. -- BeepYou, a user with no grammar at all :v (talk) 17:58, 19 February 2016 (EST)

Not sure what happened. I didn't ban you, and the only other person who could have (Toomai) hasn't been on in 2 weeks. I lifted it. Serpent King 19:24, 19 February 2016 (EST)

I don't get it

How can a font template help "shorten signatures" if unsubstituted templates aren't allowed in signatures? Toomai Glittershine The Metroid 11:08, 21 February 2016 (EST)

Wait they aren't? Where is that said? Serpent King 18:59, 21 February 2016 (EST)

Transclusion/template section: "Do not use transclusion, templates or parser functions in signatures." This includes templates that would change font, colour, size, etc. It's basically the same reason we don't allow signatures themselves to be transcluded: it can wind up being quite heavyweight once a talk page gets long. Toomai Glittershine The Yellow 20:06, 21 February 2016 (EST)

I am sorry but...

I can't do nighttime edits or IRC channel anymore, anyone wanting to know go to the IRC before 9:30 any night. Swagman, the Green Swordsman 18:12, 22 February 2016 (EST)

User:Yoshifan 34567

Could you stick some probation onto this guy or at least give him an official warning? Pretty much all of his edits are to the userspace. Polutry and I have reminded him of this, but I think it's time to let an admin take action. Penro ...that's all. 22:26, 22 February 2016 (EST)

That talk page

Swagman can speak for himself, but I just felt the need to point out that we're nowhere near red. Aidan, the Wandering Dragon Warrior 08:33, 23 February 2016 (EST)

Yeah, that's fine. The comment was mostly pointed at him anyway lol Serpent King 09:34, 23 February 2016 (EST)

(Starts blushing) Swagman, the Green Swordsman 20:04, 23 February 2016 (EST)

Just... WHY?

You kicked me... WHY? I didn't do anything wrong. Swagman, the Green Swordsman 14:57, 25 February 2016 (EST)

From what did he kick you? Are you sure he even kicked you? -- Ethan(Discussion) 15:16, 25 February 2016 (EST)

I did, from the IRC. It was a joke kick, and I am allowed to do that (so says SW:IRC#Moderator ruleset) Serpent King 15:21, 25 February 2016 (EST)

You're allowed to joke kick people, lol. -- Ethan(Discussion) 18:51, 25 February 2016 (EST)

My goodness was that NECISARY? I didn't know what was going on and was gonna join! Swagman, the Green Swordsman 19:56, 25 February 2016 (EST)

It was necessary, not necisary. Serpent King 19:59, 25 February 2016 (EST)

I wish to return, as I'm bored and I'll just watch unless asked something. Swagman, the Green Swordsman 20:10, 25 February 2016 (EST)

hello

this guy wasnt banned yet http://www.ssbwiki.com/Special:Contributions/99.1.34.73 Poultry(talk) the Pumpkin Pie 07:10, 26 February 2016 (EST)

Got it, thank you. Serpent King 07:14, 26 February 2016 (EST)

also, is it possible that you can fix my quote page? Poultry(talk) the Pumpkin Pie 12:52, 26 February 2016 (EST)

Not seeing a problem with it, what's wrong with it? Serpent King 12:54, 26 February 2016 (EST)

half of the quotes wont appear Poultry(talk) the Pumpkin Pie 13:04, 26 February 2016 (EST)

I found the problem. The first line "{{#switch:{{#expr:1731049905 mod". The number next to mod needs to go higher as you add new quotes. In this case, it needs to be one number higher than 14, because 0 also counts. I'll update it accordingly. Disaster Flare (talk) 13:11, 26 February 2016 (EST)
