Congratulations on becoming a bureaucrat, man! Extremely proud of you ^_^ -- Beep (talk) 13:42, 13 August 2017 (EDT)

Thanks Beep, that means a lot. Serpent King 13:46, 13 August 2017 (EDT)

Seriously, congrats! You really do deserve it, and I knew you could do it! Alex Parpotta the flying lobster! 15:31, 13 August 2017 (EDT)

*insert victory music here* Aidan, the Wandering Dragon Warrior 15:48, 13 August 2017 (EDT)

Thanks guys. Serpent King 17:46, 13 August 2017 (EDT)

I always knew you'd make it. Congratulations on passing, my friend! *hugs* Black Vulpine of the Furry Nation. Furries make the Internets go! :3 18:43, 13 August 2017 (EDT)

Thanks mate *hugs back* Serpent King 20:48, 13 August 2017 (EDT)

Might as well congratulate you again whilst I'm on this page. Have some victory music [1] BSTIK (Talk) 10:24, 14 August 2017 (EDT)

Congrats man. I think I was actually the most opposed to it lol, but you deserve it. Penro 12:24, 14 August 2017 (EDT)

I need some help

Hey SK. I've heard you were the one to go to, so here I am.I need some help with something.

While I read the things Disaster Flare showed to me, I still need to know how to upload images onto SmashWiki. I want to bring the Stomp (archetype) page up to date, but the List of meteor smashes (SSB4) page doesn't all of them. Please reply at your convenience.Iron Gladiator (talk) 10:03, 14 August 2017 (EDT)

Special:Upload BSTIK (Talk) 10:13, 14 August 2017 (EDT)

^ yup just use that link. Be sure to pick the license-screenshot option in the licensing box and off you go. Serpent King 12:48, 14 August 2017 (EDT)

Also a good way to get high quality ones if you don't have a capture card is to go into camera mode, remove help, pause and go to miiverse, post screenshot then download it from the web version https://miiverse.nintendo.net/titles/14866558073037299863/14866558073037299866 Alex Parpotta the flying lobster! 14:02, 14 August 2017 (EDT)

Question regarding a page I want to create

Hey Serp! I want to create a page about Smash Crate, basically lootcrate but for Smash. It's garnered some popularity, but I'm wondering if it would be notable enough for a creation. Please let me know your opinion. Thanks! User: Skittles03

You're free to prove that it's notable, but I have doubts. Serpent King 01:32, 15 August 2017 (EDT)

Ok, I'll try me best! User:Skittles03

Rename

Why not test out your newfound powers (congratulations on the well-deserved promotion, btw) by changing my username to "BaconMastre"? It's what I typically go by on sites I more frequently use. BaconMaster 14:08, 16 August 2017 (EDT)

As per SW:NAMECHANGE write back here in a few days and I'll change it then. Serpent King 14:12, 16 August 2017 (EDT)

Checking back to reconfirm my want for a name change. BaconMaster 13:58, 21 August 2017 (EDT)

Rename please

I would like a rename to "Sans" toad the kool (sans) {talk • contributions) 01:17, 2 September 2017 (EDT)

As per SW:NAMECHANGE, please write back here in a few days to confirm. Serpent King 01:28, 2 September 2017 (EDT)

back here to confirm. though i will ask for the name to be lowercased for a reason. sans {talk • contributions) 10:52, 9 September 2017 (EDT)

The system isn't capable of that, sorry. Serpent King 11:13, 9 September 2017 (EDT)

To clarify: The URL of your userpage and your name in the logs will always start with a capital letter, and it's impossible to change that. But you can link to your userpage with a lowercase first letter and it'll still work fine. Toomai Glittershine The Brazen 11:20, 9 September 2017 (EDT)

Violation

Why the Lucina is lost? Music Video 123 (talk) 06:59, 6 October 2017 (EDT)

Your signature includes the use of mainspace images, which is not permitted. What you CAN do however is take that image and reupload it as a user image. Do that, and you will be allowed to use it in your signature. Black Vulpine of the Furry Nation. Furries make the Internets go! :3 07:37, 6 October 2017 (EDT)

But User:Disaster Flare using Lucina icon in his signature. Music Video 123 (talk) 11:35, 6 October 2017 (EDT)

Did you not read what Black Vulpine said before you rushed out a reply? You need to reupload the image you wanna use and put it as a user image, THEN you can use it in your signature. Also read this BSTIK (Talk) 11:54, 6 October 2017 (EDT)

You may upload a DUPLICATE of a mainspace image and use that in your signature. And that is exactly what Disaster Flare has gone and done. Black Vulpine of the Furry Nation. Furries make the Internets go! :3 18:37, 6 October 2017 (EDT)

To license? Music Video 123 (talk) 04:28, 10 October 2017 (EDT)

Use the same one that the original has. In this case, use {{fairuse}}. Black Vulpine of the Furry Nation. Furries make the Internets go! :3 06:09, 10 October 2017 (EDT)

Competitive namespace

It's been over a month, and we've collected quite a few responses given the wiki's relative inactivity. Is it time for a resolution yet? Nyargleblargle (Contribs) 08:46, 25 October 2017 (EDT)

Serpent isn't the one running it, Toomai is. I don't feel as if we should rush this process, sure it has been going for a month now and seems pretty decisive but it should run its course and let Toomai come to a final decision when he feels its ready. BSTIK (Talk) 09:46, 25 October 2017 (EDT)

^ It's Toomai's thing, I'm not going to settle it because I don't want to feel like I am stepping on any toes. I'm sure he's almost ready to conclude anyway. Serpent King 13:01, 25 October 2017 (EDT)

Talk page archiving.

What exactly are the rules about talk page archiving, because I'm not entirely sure how it works, and my talk page is getting really long now. Alex Parpotta the flying lobster! 18:02, 2 November 2017 (EDT)

There's no hard and fast rule about it, but it is recommended that you don't let your talk page get over 32k bytes. Personally I think 15-20 sections is a better way to judge it but that's just me. If your talk becomes obnoxiously long (it takes a long time to find the discussion one is looking for) you may be asked to archive by an admin. Uhh one other thing is that you do not archive any active sections. Instead clip around them. See Help:Archiving talk pages. Serpent King 21:19, 2 November 2017 (EDT)

Character-specific update lists

Hey, is there a way to edit them to update info regarding particular changes? For example, Luigi's 1.1.1 list mentions the shield mechanic-related nerfs that he indirectly received from that update. However, as far as I know, his page is the only one that follows this format, even though other characters were also noticeably affected by the same changes, such as Ryu. 104.136.200.207 17:45, 8 November 2017 (EST)

Just add them with the Buff/Nerf/Change templates. Serpent King 17:56, 8 November 2017 (EST)

Golden Sun on the pages to improve thingy

There's nothing wrong I see with it at all. Maybe a little short, but the franchise is so small and has such a small impact on the Smash franchise that it doesn't matter. Why is it there? --Penro 22:37, 11 November 2017 (EST)

Ask Miles. I believe he's the one who put it up. Serpent King 22:39, 11 November 2017 (EST)

Oh, I don't know why I thought only bures could update that, sorry. --Penro 22:42, 11 November 2017 (EST)

My userbox

Hey Serpent, do you think you could help me with my userbox? I can't understand what went wrong. I used Alex's as a reference but it's looking pretty crap right now. If you have the time, reply at your convenience. Iron Gladiator (talk) 23:19, 13 November 2017 (EST)

This page should probably be deleted

[Drill (archetype)]. --Penro 16:14, 16 December 2017 (EST)

Do we want to do anything about this?

I came across this this morning. I dunno if we allow people to get away with this or not though. Black Vulpine of the Furry Nation. Furries make the Internets go! :3 21:56, 20 December 2017 (EST)

I'm not Serpent, clearly, but I think we should not allow that. Granted in this case it wasn't that severe, so I would give a warning, but if it's removal of information or massvandalism, just block it. --Penro 22:05, 20 December 2017 (EST)

I'm gonna go ahead and assume it as vandalism, as going through the IP's edits, it definitely comes off as malicious. Disaster Flare (talk) 01:00, 21 December 2017 (EST)

Creating smashwiki pages for local scene

Hello, you recently deleted a page I created. Is it not allowed to create smashwiki pages for the local scene? —Preceding unsigned comment added by ABAP (talk • contribs) 11:43, 21 December 2017 (EST)

1. You are creating it in the wrong place, smasher articles go in the smasher space.
2. No, local only players do not get articles. They have to be ranked, placed well in a regional, TOd a regional or better, or have contributed something significant to the scene.
3. Please remember to sign your comments.

Thank you. Serpent King 11:43, 21 December 2017 (EST)

Oh, sorry. I just felt like those images would improve the page. HammerBro101 (talk) 14:55, 24 December 2017 (EST)HammerBro101

Nah, you're okay. Thanks for listening. Serpent King 15:01, 24 December 2017 (EST)

Length of My Block

How long will my block be for if I don't adhere to the warning immediately? HammerBro101 (talk) 15:19, 24 December 2017 (EST)HammerBro101

For asking that, permanent. Serpent King 15:20, 24 December 2017 (EST)

I've Had Enough Of This Wiki!

I just want to find a way to get off this wiki for good! I never want to edit ever again! I want to close my account!

There's always the X button in the top right corner of your browser. Serpent King 15:36, 24 December 2017 (EST)

I know that, but how do you close an account once you make one?

HammerBro101 (talk) 15:39, 24 December 2017 (EST)HammerBro101

You don't. Serpent King 15:40, 24 December 2017 (EST)

Then who can close down your account if you can't close down your own account? HammerBro101 (talk) 16:03, 24 December 2017 (EST)HammerBro101

Think you can check out my talk page?

I left a question a while ago regarding the idle poses. Stingrays110 ❯❯❯ Talk 16:01, 14 January 2018 (EST)

Idle Chatter

Hello, how are you doing today? I hope you are doing well. It's been a while since I was last on this wiki---I'm a Mario Wiki editor, after all. Skuchi037 (talk) 20:57, 17 January 2018 (EST)

Hi :) Serpent  King 21:32, 17 January 2018 (EST)

Melee

Hi Mr. King! I wanted to ask you if Mario or Fox is better for competitive play because my friends challenged me to a Melee match. Hope to hear from you soon!User:RatedMforMario. Let's-a-go!~ 14:19, 23 January 2018 (EST)

Go have a read of SW:NOT and SW:TALK please, thank you. BSTIK (Talk) 14:34, 23 January 2018 (EST)

Name Change

Hey Serp, what's up? Could I kindly request a name change to Critical Warrior? Appreciate your time. Iron Gladiator (talk) 22:55, 27 January 2018 (EST)

As per SW:NAMECHANGE get back with me in a few days to confirm it, thank you. Serpent  King 22:56, 27 January 2018 (EST)
