| == Fighter Pages ==
| |
| | |
| First of all, thanks for helping out with cleaning up the character pages. Secondly, just so your not editing something that is going to go away soon, take a look at [[SmashWiki:Post-Merge Cleanup]] to see the format that all the fighter pages are going to be put in once I/we get enough time to do them all. [[Falco (SSBB)]] and [[Meta Knight (SSBB)]] are already in this format.

| |
| ::Unfortunately, we have to use the auto-block feature because many of the vandals have a range of computers or a slightly variable IP. Hitting with auto-blocks keeps them from just logging out after they are banned. It's much easier than calculating a binary range block code, and most of the admins wouldn't even know what to do. Plus, that can go wrong and lock out whole continents.

| == Two things about the poll ==
| |
| | |
| First of all, last week I removed the same poll that you put up today. If you didn't read my reasoning, it was that polls about the "worst" thing tend to be either a troll in and of themselves or an invitation to other users to troll. This is why GameFAQs doesn't allow top ten lists about the "worst" or "most overrated" games.
| |
| | |
| The bigger problem I have, however, is you contacting a blocked user and putting up content for him/her. Users get blocked for a reason; Cafinator's has been discussed extensively. I don't know a specific policy to point to, but I would extrapolate the no sockpuppets rule to include getting another user to do things for you. You are obviously an intelligent and devoted editor, and I'm sure you can understand the reasoning behind my thoughts here.

| |
| :I read your post on [[Talk:Main Page]] after I had posted the poll, and I couldn't just revert (the numbers had already been reset, would have looked stupid, etc. etc.) I do understand your reasoning, though I have some reservations about specific instances. --[[User:Shadowcrest|<font face="vivaldi" size="3" color="Steelblue">Shadowcrest</font>]] 17:31, 30 September 2008 (UTC)

| Just out of curiosity, I have a question to ask you. Why do you always tend to support merging similar articles (Blaster, Reflector, Fire Fox/Bird/Wolf, Glire/Glunder/Glice) and only disagree when there's no practical way to do it? I usually tend to lean the other way and was interested in why you think these types of things should be merged. {[[User:Miles.oppenheimer|My name is Miles,]] [[User talk:Miles.oppenheimer|and I approve]] [[Special:Contributions/Miles.oppenheimer|this message.]]} 15:14, 1 November 2008 (UTC)

| :Because they're all mostly the same thing with minor variations. Glice/ire/under all do the same thing, just with different side effects; the blasters are just Fox/Falco/Wolf's spammable special (and they're all semi-clones anyway imo), etc. There's no point in having 3 separate articles when 1 could cover it all. --<font face="vivaldi" size="3">[[User:Shadowcrest|<font color="Steelblue">Shadow</font>]][[User talk:Shadowcrest|<font color="Steelblue">crest</font>]]</font> 15:19, 1 November 2008 (UTC)

| == My Navbox ==
| |
| | |
| You think you can help me with [http://www.wikia.com/wiki/User:MarioGalaxy/navbox this navbox]? Whatever Wiki is in it, it has that navbox, which is the idea. I had a theory that if that <nowiki>{{:w:User:Name}}</nowiki> would show my page on whatever Wiki I want, then adding "/navbox" would also apply. I was correct. But, now this is a very minor problem, usually if the link to a page is on the page itself, it will bold. That isn't happening in this case. You think you can help me on this minor problem?

| *Down Smash-Creates a ball of twilight at her foot and spins around.
| |
| *Up Smash-Creates a little thing of twilight at her foot that pushes foes up into her hair that punches upwards.(Like ROB's, but with a little upwards push at the beginning)

| == Talk page messages ==
| |
| | |
| Hey Shadowcrest. This is something that I've noticed for a while, but I didn't think would be a big problem. Some users (such as yourself) usually reply to given messages on your own talk page (although that's what's supposed to be done, many users don't do that anymore or in the first place). Do you think we should try and make a template similar to [[Wikipedia:Template:Talkback|this one]] from Wikipedia? Although, maybe we should use a different image, like maybe one of [[Mr. Resetti]]'s pictures (you know, when he lectures players in the middle of a match). What are your thoughts on this?

I can point out various flaws in yours- you did not for mine, simply stating you liked yours better- and then you state you don't really care which is implemented, as long as one was. Seeing as I have one that I very clearly support over the other and you really don't, and I have arguments for mine and as far as I'm aware you don't for yours, I adopted mine.

I told him that if I win, he had to buzz off (didn't think he would keep to it, though, and I was eventually right). These guys all did the same thing, although I can't prove it's the same guy.

| <s>Okay, that's it. I honestly don't know what happened to "Let's not make BNK angry so that it keeps him from blowing up and getting banned" attitude of yours, because it's changed to "The Blue Blur is innocent, so I'll back him up and call BNK a troll!", and I'm sorry for my recent trolling (you don't remember? Check PG's talk page and prolly TBB's as well... oh, and some of the forums). Will you please stop harassing me now??

| ::Truly, I am not one that you can blame for trolling. The only other possible way that someone else could possibly have been involved is if they're baiting you. If they ''are'' baiting you (and from what I can see on wiki nobody is baiting you), then contact an administrator and do NOT reply to the baiter. Not only can replying result in a block for you, but you lose the "moral high-ground" or so to speak. "Maybe if you told PG and TBB to leave me alone, I wouldn't be so angry!" "The Blue Blur is innocent, so I'll back him up and call BNK a troll!" As far as ''I'' can tell, The Blue Blur and Paragoomba are "innocent", and you're trolling them, for what reason I have no idea. This is like the 9001th time you've tried to pass off your anger problems on someone else; I didn't buy it the first time, and I'm not going to buy it now. I'm sorry, but that is the truth.

| ::Well, there you go. I have procured 10 examples of you posting something unnecessarily aggressive, assholish, and/or including personal attacks. I had to go back only 4 days to find them. So, that's 10+ examples of trolling in 4 days, and 8 of those have occured in the past 2. Do you see the problem here? :(

| |
| ::To tell the truth, I believe that you've been lucky that neither I nor any other admin has banned you yet. To be frank, some others that I have spoken to are of the opinion that if someone bans you again, it ought to be lengthened to a permaban. We've been through this whole trolling stuff several times before, and you've never seemed to understand. The reason I personally haven't banned you is that I see a sincere effort to improve yourself (unless you're a very, very good actor who is pulling my leg for the lulz, in which case I bow to your skills). Your record is like a roller coaster - you have ups and downs. Usually, right after a ban or a serious conversation with an admin, your behavior improves. You drop most of the assholish crap and become a decent contributor. However, after a while you reach the top of the hill, and the drop begins - personal attacks etc. become increasingly frequent, until someone steps up and says something to you and/or you get banned again. And then you get back on the ride again...
| |
| ::I have chosen to excuse you for the recent offenses (though if another administrator does not, I won't contest their decision). In other words, I will not ban you right now, though another admin may. I truly do believe that you're not editing in bad faith or being an ass on purpose. But honestly, I won't be able to keep excusing you for much longer; one way or another, this behavior has to stop for good. --<span style="font-family:vivaldi; font-size:12pt">[[User:Shadowcrest|<span style="color:#4682b4">Shadow</span>]][[User talk:Shadowcrest|<span style="color:#4682b4;">crest</span>]]</span> 01:36, 13 February 2009 (UTC)

| ::<small>(edit conflict</small>Alright, here's my thoughts on the matter. First, there's a big difference between a slight jab and an attack. The comments above fit into the first category (or at least I felt that they did when I was writing them and apologize if they were interpreted differently). An example of a personal "attack" would be something like [http://super-smash-bros.wikia.com/index.php?title=Forum%3AHow_do_u_put_colors_into_name&diff=223565&oldid=223564 this] or our recent "friend" African American Ninjakoopa (the vandal account). Now, if every little comment about someone not being able to spell properly was considered a banable offense, Shadowcrest is right that we wouldn't have anyone around. Also, there's a difference between just up and telling some one to "fuck off" (unacceptable) and telling them that you don't accept their apology because you think they will continue until they are blocked (acceptable). You were perfectly fine in saying the latter (I'm not passing judgment on if I agree or disagree with you), but under the logic I see you presenting, you would be in fault as the comment could have been the same as "fuck off." Basically, what it boils down to is a matter of how things are taken by all the users. I really haven't seen any uproar from people about the "learn English" comments, and if there was, then there would be discussion about what we should do about them. As for the edit you originally questioned, my advice would be get over it. If one person on the internet calling you an idiot for one thing you did is a big enough deal to cause you emotional turmoil then you life must be pretty good considering you can spare emotional energy to be bothered by something that trivial.

| | |
| :::The difference between a jab and an attack is in severity, not principal: Both are wrong. Though it may at times be quite clear, the severity is generally open to a large amount of interpretation by the readers, and the exact distinction is somewhat unobtainable. (-And, let’s face it, we are all human, and frequently tend ‘’not’’ to [[SW:AGF|assume good faith]].) As such, and for other obvious reasons, it would be best simply not to make use of either. Regardless of the size, “every little comment” makes a difference; a negative one, in this case. –and ‘’any’’ amount of uproar is no excuse for this; discussion is happening ''right now''.

| ::::Jab is a loaded word because it implies that an attack (albeit a small one) is taking place in the first place. Better might be to say that there's a difference between attacking another user and being blunt, which, believe it or not, can actually have a ''positive'' impact (meaning that it is, in fact, different in principal from an attack). What you're essentially proposing is that we can analyze the action without analyzing the intent (i.e. you're making the blanket statement that anything resembling an attack in character is automatically wrong/in bad faith/whatever you want to call it).

Either they're intended to be funny or they're intended to be blunt. "Attacks" are purposefully aimed at another editor and are inherently non-constructive in nature. By equating "jabs" and "attacks" and saying that both are principally wrong, you're saying that, regardless of intent, anything that resembles an attack to any degree is inherently wrong.

| :My response to this argument and indeed this entire topic is: don't be a dick. Intent is important, but so is what you say.
| |
| :This is the internet; there is no urgency to pretty much anything that this discussion could pertain to. You don't have to respond in a second like you do in real life. So take the time to make sure you're not coming off as a douchebag. Re-read what you write, especially if you're arguing; if you're angry, go jog around the block a couple times before you post something you shouldn't. Also keep in mind that while you may not think you're being a douchebag and that everyone else is, you might be. If you think you're going to say something slightly jerkish just to get even with people who were jerks before, though of course what you're doing isn't half as bad as what they did: you're being just as much of a jerk as they were, if not escalating the douchebaggery past what it already was. Also keep in mind that being a dick is not the same as being impolite/uncivil; though many dicks are impolite and uncivil, you can be a polite dick too. Keep in mind that what you say and how it comes across matters. (I strongly disagree with what semi wrote above- I believe that if you offend someone, unless it's clear the other person is overreacting then you are at least partially at fault.)
| |
| :But, intent matters too. What DE and Semi said above about intent being important is true, though being my righteous-crusader carebear self my line is a lot shorter than theirs is. If what I'm saying is assholish but it's a joke and everyone knows that, that's ok. If the comment isn't damn clear that it's supposed to be a joke, you should probably rephrase it. If you make a blunt comment that is construed poorly but you're trying to benefit the wiki/its users/whatever... maybe. This is what administrators have discretion for. Does intent excuse a personal attack? Not necessarily, but it is taken into account. Blanket rules- in this case "any unnecessarily blunt comments are PAs and are a bannable offense"- are always stupid.
| |
| :I guess what I'm really trying to say is be nice if you can. For people on the dickery side of the argument, just because we won't always ban you for minor asshattery doesn't mean it's cool. Don't be harsh unless you have a seriously good reason. I know being nice is a stretch for some people, but suck it up. For people who are offended by every less-than-perfectly-polite comment, QQ less. Not everyone is going to be perfectly nice and sugar-coated all the time, nor do they have to be. Keep in mind that they may have good intentions behind their slightly dickish comment.

| |
| I thought it was clear that I intended to end this conversation, which is what you and C-Hawk wanted, but very well. I'm not particularly interested in your charity, nor in indulging you. I suppose I can, however, humor you.
| |
| | |
| I'm of the mind that people generally don't acknowledge that which they disagree with; therefore, I would think that you are actually aware of what I perceive as an insult, futilely deterring me from pointing it out specifically. -But let's try it out anyway:
| |
| | |
| You said, "Let's play a fun little game". This is the kind of thing one would say to a child. When I'm treated as a child, I am insulted. This should've been clear from my hostile reaction.
| |
| Based on examples within this thread, it should also be clear ("based on most of my edits") that my responses are far more intelligible when I am treated with respect and dignity. If you wished to illicit such a response, why did you not treat me in a polite manner? (This would be an example of "incompatible argument styles")
| |
| | |
| I am frequently accused of "bad" arguing (by C-Hawk), which is a naive view, as it is perhaps merely "different". Simply because I choose not to point out "evidence" or "logic" which can be easily extrapolated based on what I ''have'' said, you say that I am without reasoning; when, in fact, I have simply not always yet stated it as such specifically. I would imagine that you already know this, but simply choose to argue your way around it.
| |
| | |
| At that point, I would perhaps usually elaborate on the point in question, but (when talking to you or C-Hawk) there has usually been a deterrent (insult, tangent, etc.) which I might choose to address first, or ignore entirely as it hardly discounts what I've written.
| |
| | |
| This is all part of my argument, and while my methods may be in question, there should be none as to whether or not I have any idea what I'm talking about.
| |
| | |
| -Regarding you comment, SC; I am unsure why you meant by "liability", nor why you thought I was replying to Semi. -[[User:Zixor|Zixor]] ([[User talk:Zixor|talk]]) 06:16, 11 March 2009 (UTC)

| |
| :OK, just no to the argumentation point. Look, there are books on how to reason and argue effectively, and highly established methods and standards for the art. I wasn't a high school debate champion and a standout political science student because I chose not to present evidence or construct logical link stories. Also, don't let your opponents extrapolate the evidence for you. They will either extrapolate it in a way you didn't intend them to or they will (rightly) present the fact that you haven't presented any evidence as their primary counter-argument. This is basic rhetoric. Please, show me the scholarly writing that defends the "style" of argumentation that doesn't use logic, doesn't present evidence, and accepts appeals to emotion and continual reassertation of debunked claims. Oh wait, it doesn't exist. As for things being "inherently" obvious, the burden of proof is still on you under the rules of rhetoric. I don't question that you have an idea of what you are talking about. I question the validity of it. Asserting that you believe something is great. It's a self proving hypothesis. It also does nothing, ''absolutely nothing'', to help the question of if what you believe is true. In the case of the normative argument, showing that X ''should'' be true does ''not'' prove that it is true. I attack your argumentation methods no longer out of any desire to help you (that ship has long since sailed) but instead to help bolster my position in this by not only providing a strong case against you, but also proving that your case doesn't even have standing in the argument. It's called a multiple win situation.

| :I'm going to chime in here too, if you don't mind. I said 'Let's play a little game' as a challenge. I don't think you have jack, tbh. And in my defense, you're arguing like a child. That isn't a statement meant to insult; it's factual. You are repeatedly asserting what you say, and providing no evidence. You're saying 'Because' and that's your reasoning. I'm sorry, I think I heard my 7 year old cousin use that last, tbh.

| :As far as your respect and dignity goes, you're saying that to try and put the blame for your marginal contributions on me. I'm sorry, your edits are your own responsibility. You haven't been abused on this wiki, particularly not at the start, but after some time your edits were called into question because they were repeatedly of the 'nonconstructive' variety, and once again tbh, they were sort of annoying.

An example of a personal "attack" would be something like [http://super-smash-bros.wikia.com/index.php?title=Forum%3AHow_do_u_put_colors_into_name&diff=223565&oldid=223564 this] or our recent "friend" African American Ninjakoopa (the vandal account). Now, if every little comment about someone not being able to spell properly was considered a banable offense, Shadowcrest is right that we wouldn't have anyone around. Also, there's a difference between just up and telling some one to "fuck off" (unacceptable) and telling them that you don't accept their apology because you think they will continue until they are blocked (acceptable). You were perfectly fine in saying the latter (I'm not passing judgment on if I agree or disagree with you), but under the logic I see you presenting, you would be in fault as the comment could have been the same as "fuck off." Basically, what it boils down to is a matter of how things are taken by all the users. I really haven't seen any uproar from people about the "learn English" comments, and if there was, then there would be discussion about what we should do about them. As for the edit you originally questioned, my advice would be get over it. If one person on the internet calling you an idiot for one thing you did is a big enough deal to cause you emotional turmoil then you life must be pretty good considering you can spare emotional energy to be bothered by something that trivial.

| :::The difference between a jab and an attack is in severity, not principal: Both are wrong. Though it may at times be quite clear, the severity is generally open to a large amount of interpretation by the readers, and the exact distinction is somewhat unobtainable. (-And, let’s face it, we are all human, and frequently tend ‘’not’’ to [[SW:AGF|assume good faith]].) As such, and for other obvious reasons, it would be best simply not to make use of either. Regardless of the size, “every little comment” makes a difference; a negative one, in this case. –and ‘’any’’ amount of uproar is no excuse for this; discussion is happening ''right now''.

| ::::Jab is a loaded word because it implies that an attack (albeit a small one) is taking place in the first place. Better might be to say that there's a difference between attacking another user and being blunt, which, believe it or not, can actually have a ''positive'' impact (meaning that it is, in fact, different in principal from an attack). What you're essentially proposing is that we can analyze the action without analyzing the intent (i.e. you're making the blanket statement that anything resembling an attack in character is automatically wrong/in bad faith/whatever you want to call it). The distinction isn't always clear, but there ''is'' a difference. – [[User:Defiant Elements|<font color="black">Defiant Elements</font>]] [[user talk:Defiant Elements|<font color=black><small>''+talk''</small></font>]] 16:47, 10 March 2009 (UTC)

| :You said "The difference between a jab and an attack is in severity, not principal: Both are wrong." "Jabs," if you want to call them that, usually serve one of two purposes. Either they're intended to be funny or they're intended to be blunt. "Attacks" are purposefully aimed at another editor and are inherently non-constructive in nature. By equating "jabs" and "attacks" and saying that both are principally wrong, you're saying that, regardless of intent, anything that resembles an attack to any degree is inherently wrong.

| |
| :This is the internet; there is no urgency to pretty much anything that this discussion could pertain to. You don't have to respond in a second like you do in real life. So take the time to make sure you're not coming off as a douchebag. Re-read what you write, especially if you're arguing; if you're angry, go jog around the block a couple times before you post something you shouldn't. Also keep in mind that while you may not think you're being a douchebag and that everyone else is, you might be. If you think you're going to say something slightly jerkish just to get even with people who were jerks before, though of course what you're doing isn't half as bad as what they did: you're being just as much of a jerk as they were, if not escalating the douchebaggery past what it already was. Also keep in mind that being a dick is not the same as being impolite/uncivil; though many dicks are impolite and uncivil, you can be a polite dick too. Keep in mind that what you say and how it comes across matters. (I strongly disagree with what semi wrote above- I believe that if you offend someone, unless it's clear the other person is overreacting then you are at least partially at fault.)
| |
| :But, intent matters too. What DE and Semi said above about intent being important is true, though being my righteous-crusader carebear self my line is a lot shorter than theirs is. If what I'm saying is assholish but it's a joke and everyone knows that, that's ok. If the comment isn't damn clear that it's supposed to be a joke, you should probably rephrase it. If you make a blunt comment that is construed poorly but you're trying to benefit the wiki/its users/whatever... maybe. This is what administrators have discretion for. Does intent excuse a personal attack? Not necessarily, but it is taken into account. Blanket rules- in this case "any unnecessarily blunt comments are PAs and are a bannable offense"- are always stupid.
| |
| :I guess what I'm really trying to say is be nice if you can. For people on the dickery side of the argument, just because we won't always ban you for minor asshattery doesn't mean it's cool. Don't be harsh unless you have a seriously good reason. I know being nice is a stretch for some people, but suck it up. For people who are offended by every less-than-perfectly-polite comment, QQ less. Not everyone is going to be perfectly nice and sugar-coated all the time, nor do they have to be. Keep in mind that they may have good intentions behind their slightly dickish comment.

| |
| I thought it was clear that I intended to end this conversation, which is what you and C-Hawk wanted, but very well. I'm not particularly interested in your charity, nor in indulging you. I suppose I can, however, humor you.
| |
| | |
| I'm of the mind that people generally don't acknowledge that which they disagree with; therefore, I would think that you are actually aware of what I perceive as an insult, futilely deterring me from pointing it out specifically. -But let's try it out anyway:
| |
| | |
| You said, "Let's play a fun little game". This is the kind of thing one would say to a child. When I'm treated as a child, I am insulted. This should've been clear from my hostile reaction.
| |
| Based on examples within this thread, it should also be clear ("based on most of my edits") that my responses are far more intelligible when I am treated with respect and dignity. If you wished to illicit such a response, why did you not treat me in a polite manner? (This would be an example of "incompatible argument styles")
| |
| | |
| I am frequently accused of "bad" arguing (by C-Hawk), which is a naive view, as it is perhaps merely "different". Simply because I choose not to point out "evidence" or "logic" which can be easily extrapolated based on what I ''have'' said, you say that I am without reasoning; when, in fact, I have simply not always yet stated it as such specifically. I would imagine that you already know this, but simply choose to argue your way around it.
| |
| | |
| At that point, I would perhaps usually elaborate on the point in question, but (when talking to you or C-Hawk) there has usually been a deterrent (insult, tangent, etc.) which I might choose to address first, or ignore entirely as it hardly discounts what I've written.
| |
| | |
| This is all part of my argument, and while my methods may be in question, there should be none as to whether or not I have any idea what I'm talking about.
| |
| | |
| -Regarding you comment, SC; I am unsure why you meant by "liability", nor why you thought I was replying to Semi. -[[User:Zixor|Zixor]] ([[User talk:Zixor|talk]]) 06:16, 11 March 2009 (UTC)

| |
| :OK, just no to the argumentation point. Look, there are books on how to reason and argue effectively, and highly established methods and standards for the art. I wasn't a high school debate champion and a standout political science student because I chose not to present evidence or construct logical link stories. Also, don't let your opponents extrapolate the evidence for you. They will either extrapolate it in a way you didn't intend them to or they will (rightly) present the fact that you haven't presented any evidence as their primary counter-argument. This is basic rhetoric. Please, show me the scholarly writing that defends the "style" of argumentation that doesn't use logic, doesn't present evidence, and accepts appeals to emotion and continual reassertation of debunked claims. Oh wait, it doesn't exist. As for things being "inherently" obvious, the burden of proof is still on you under the rules of rhetoric. I don't question that you have an idea of what you are talking about. I question the validity of it. Asserting that you believe something is great. It's a self proving hypothesis. It also does nothing, ''absolutely nothing'', to help the question of if what you believe is true. In the case of the normative argument, showing that X ''should'' be true does ''not'' prove that it is true. I attack your argumentation methods no longer out of any desire to help you (that ship has long since sailed) but instead to help bolster my position in this by not only providing a strong case against you, but also proving that your case doesn't even have standing in the argument. It's called a multiple win situation.

That isn't a statement meant to insult; it's factual. You are repeatedly asserting what you say, and providing no evidence. You're saying 'Because' and that's your reasoning.

I wouldn't call him/her a vandal (that's why I didn't put this on the vandal section) because he/she doesn't replace articles with "GAY GAY GAY" or anything like that, but I do think this user needs a warning or something like that to quit making Jiggly seem like the best character ever no matter what it takes.

| == Your block of me ==
| |
| | |
| Dear Shadowcrest
| |
| | |
| This is Sir Evan Tidalwave Schroedur, Esquire, who you better know as 13375poolR. You have blocked me, for what I believe to be unjust reasons. You blocked me for 'intimidating behavior/harassment.' I am using a different IP because you refused to let me edit my own talk page, unjustly, as well. I have not 'harassed' anyone, or intimidated anyone. I would retract this if you can find anyone, ''anyone'' who can come forward saying that they have been harassed by me in an intimidating manner, but I am sure you cannot. You seem to have a personal dislike for my continued interjections of humorous (and true) anecdotes, as well for the instances where I have in fact provided true and helpful answers in these anecdotes. Please unblock me, shorten my block, or consult other admins about this block, because it is tyranny, sir, and as I shouted with others those many years ago, 'Taxation without representation is tyranny.' Sincerely, Sir Evan Tidalwave Shroedur, or 13375poolR. [[Special:Contributions/74.63.87.134|74.63.87.134]] 00:10, 3 May 2009 (UTC)
| |
| :Well obviously your problem is that the temperature on SmashWiki only exceeds 10% humidity, so you can't become a yipnik. So sorry.
| |
| :I unjustly restricted use of your talk page? Not really. I don't really see why that was ever implemented in the first place- blocked users aren't supposed to be able to edit the wiki, not the wiki minus their talk page. But that's still not the point- I left email open for a reason, use it.
| |
| :"I have not 'harassed' anyone, or intimidated anyone." I selected the closest applicable wiki-generated reason, and if that caused you confusion then I apologize. However, I suggest you look at the second part of the block reason, "trolling", and if we're going even more in depth I would have added "disruption". So while you may be correct that I may not find anyone who was personally offended by your posts (though btw, [http://super-smash-bros.wikia.com/index.php?title=Forum:I_need_help_with_creating_infoboxes&diff=prev&oldid=262298 you've done it before]), I ''am'' correct that I am well within my rights to block for disruption.
| |
| :"You seem to have a personal dislike for my continued interjections of humorous (and true) anecdotes" Yeah, I dislike them. They're most typically annoying and divert the subject from its intended topic. But apparently I'm not the only one- [http://super-smash-bros.wikia.com/index.php?title=Forum%3AWhy_didn%27t_they_make_items_fair%3F&diff=265877&oldid=265870 other] [http://super-smash-bros.wikia.com/index.php?title=Forum:Why_didn%27t_they_make_items_fair%3F&diff=next&oldid=265878 people] [http://super-smash-bros.wikia.com/index.php?title=Forum:Why_didn%27t_they_make_items_fair%3F&diff=next&oldid=265924 seem] [http://super-smash-bros.wikia.com/index.php?title=Forum:Why_didn%27t_they_make_items_fair%3F&diff=next&oldid=266066 to] [http://super-smash-bros.wikia.com/index.php?title=Forum:Banning_Characters&diff=next&oldid=267117 agree].
| |
| :"as well for the instances where I have in fact provided true and helpful answers in these anecdotes" Cool story bro. But that doesn't change the fact that your posts were disruptive. If I answer someone's question and then proceed to rant about how they're a dumbass for not knowing, does that make me not guilty of personal attacks? No.
| |
| :"Please unblock me, shorten my block, or consult other admins about this block." In my opinion, you don't deserve it. You've been given ''multiple'' warnings on your talkpage and been blocked for this '''''twice''''' and you continued the behavior. We've done our best to make it exceedingly obvious that you need to stop what you're doing, and the only fault in this situation is on you for missing that. And it's only tyranny if I have absolute control and I'm abusing my power- and neither are true. You are welcome to ask the other admins to shorten the block, but they'd still have to discuss it with me and read this discussion, so it's probably not happening.

| ::While I'm not going to shorten the block for the reason of 'general douchebaggery' I would like to point something out to you, Shadowcrest. 13375poolR is ''far less disruptive'' than the character page vandal. In fact, he's made some constructive edits, and answered questions, albeit in some very peculiar and often cryptically laced with the not so subtle undertones of the influence of hallucinogens. The character page vandal did nothing but be more disruptive ''to the actual content'' of the wiki, rather than just troll the forums mildly with his inane babblings. And I'd also like to point out that his intentions don't seem to be nefarious, he just seems to be a bored idiot with a keyboard who decided to mash together historical events with no particular order or sense applied to them. Other vandals, who you are quite squeamish about giving their due have no such clarity of their intentions. It would seem even less to me like he's really even being that disruptive; most often he's simply ignored, which he seems perfectly fine with. He doesn't really flame, with the only ''possible'' exception being the 'slug king' reference, but I honestly don't find that to be offensive so much as humorous. My point being is that 13375poolR is nowhere near as bad as they come, because he's at least got a sense of humor, and isn't ruining anyone's day unless you let him. But I'm not unreasonable. You have been a bad bad little troll at times, and yes, you can be exceedingly annoying, and you don't exactly contribute anything, so I'm not shortening the ban, but let's have some understandings, here.

| | |
| I did a quick analysis of 13375poolR's contributions and came up with the following:
| |
| *A decent amount (36%) of his edits are rants (not counting his newly-formed user page). Yes, they're funny to an extent (to some people), but they're disruptive, and there are better ways to be funny (such as using brevity and relevance).
| |
| *A quarter (25%) of his edits include what I would consider personal attacks (of any severity).
| |
| *Some (18%) of his edits have bad language.
| |
| *Some (14%) of his edits can be considered constructive.
| |
| In other words, almost two-thirds (61%) of 13375poolR's edits are unconstructive and can be considered trolling. While that may not be worthy of a block as of now, he's definately on thin ice, and he has been warned about his attitude before <s>(although he was never actually blocked)</s>.

| |
| :*I fail to see how his rants are disruptive. Practically everyone just ignores them, don't they? I don't see how that causes harm. He's not asking for people to pay attention to his rants, either, he just does his thing and goes away. He's sort of like a dog, really.
| |
| :*I believe the personal attacks are what he was warned about/banned for before. If I see him do it, I'll ban him, no question.
| |
| :*Most contributors and sysops on this wiki are prone to bad language, myself included, and there is no rule against it. Though some may find it distasteful, I think there's hardly anything 'tasteful' about 13375poolR, though nobody's expecting it from him and there's no rule against it.
| |
| :*Really? I thought they were all rants.
| |
| :I don't think that posting nonsensical rants in threads is ''trolling'' per se. I mean, sure it's nonsense but it's not hurting anybody. My logic is that trolling is not itself a bannable offense, in moderation, but a consistent history of trolling may be cause for a ban, and certainly ''anything'' that even ''resembles'' a step over the line for a user who is prone to trolling ought to result in a ban. Since I don't think that trolling in moderation is necessarily a bannable offense, and since I don't see posting nonsense as an issue as long as it doesn't hurt anybody, I don't see a reason to ban him. Doesn't mean I won't pull the trigger if, as I said, ''anything'' that even ''resembles'' a step over the line ought to result in a ban. But 13375poolR appears to be a one-trick pony. He does one thing, and he does it very well, and that's posting benign nonsense in the middle of hot discussions. [[User:Semicolon|Semicolon]] ([[User talk:Semicolon|talk]]) 14:04, 30 July 2009 (UTC)

| ::::Firstly, branding another user a troll is a pretty strong allegation to make. As far as I know, Semicolon has never abused his powers as an administrator, and has never made a bad faith edit, though the tone of his comments occasionally borders on trollish. 13375poolR has already been given "some warnings" - he has in fact been blocked several times. This is because his comments, unlike Semicolon's, quite often overstep the mark. Blue Ninjakoopa wasn't the best example you could have picked as he only trolled occasionally, and frequently made good faith edits, but one time he overstepped the mark so far that it was decided that he should be banned permanently as the good faith edits didn't make up for the bad faith ones. 13375poolR, unlike either BNK or Semicolon, talks utter nonsense most of the time, and while his edits may be in good faith, only six of them have actually added anything of value to the page. 13375poolR's a trouble-maker, Semicolon just sometimes argues his point in an overly harsh way. Also, it seems like some people are trying slightly too hard to get 13375poolR banned, but without providing really solid reasons (preferably quoting policy and times when he's infringed it). O yeah, and he's called 13375poolR - where did the "pool's closed guy" comment come from?

| :::::lol, semicolon even admits he can be a troll at times. Like you said, he doesn't "cross the line" the way this pool's closed guy certainly has. I don't really believe in perma-banning (then again, I'm not a mod so it doesn't matter) unless a clear vandal is being dealt with. Perma-banning is a very powerful tool to use, and with great power comes... yadda-yadda, etc. Pool's closed guy has certainly earned himself all those shorter blocks he's gotten, but his actions don't warrant a permanent block. Just keep giving him longer and longer blocks (only if he continues to consistently troll) until he learns his lesson. He'll get bored and quit this place or become more good-faithed eventually.

| ==Sockpuppet Experiment==
| |
| So, I (Semicolon) created this account to be a sock-puppet referencing a prior vandal who was recently asking to come back and I thought his name was funny so I used it here. I haven't actually caused any harm to the wiki nor is my intent to. However, let's say I (Semicolon) now make an RfB, and Common Welsh Dragenah supports it. Would that be abuse. Or say I just used this account to oppose Smoreking's nom without telling you? I'm just doing this to prove a point.

What Clarinet Hawk said wasn't a PA. He effectively said that you have acted like a "douche" on IRC, which in no way means "you're a douche" - quite the opposite, in fact, as he's saying that such behavior is not typical of you. Don't say things like "claims to be" - he's a college student, fact. Casting doubts on obvious truths will encourage no one to take your side. Also, I never said that I'd never heard the term "PA" before, or didn't know what it meant, whereas I know that you use IM, and therefore know what "IM" means and what it is, so I really have no idea why you're claiming not to know about it.

All I said was that OTHER PEOPLE rant about you at other websites (seldom AiB). Honestly? Blasting PAs at someone who is nonexistent elsewhere? That's not very smart. Stop shoving words in my mouth. I still question your thesis on calling people names, however, and to be honest, it's just your way if slipping personal attacks past users. Wrong, again, for the third time. I do NOT use instant messenger. Maybe chat sites that other friends go to, but NOT "IM". I'll repeat: I do NOT use "IM" (I had to use upper-case words for emphasis, sorry). IIRC, I wasn't banned for "trolling". You got really angry with me for playing around (my bad) and blocked me from the channel. Now you're using trolling as my excuse. PenguinofDeath, as much as you would like me to disappear, I won't. I'm still going to contribute to SmashWiki (lol). Do you have solid proof that Clarinet Hawk is a college student? Then again, none of us on the internet have proof of anything without "pictures". I take CHawk's word that he goes to college, but I'm not fully sure. Even so, his behavior towards a certain group of people is very unreasonable (he no longer is a dick to those users, however). By the way, I hope that I'm not giving the impression that I hate or that I'm mad at any of you. Again, PenguinofDeath, please do not "be a douche" and state the obvious to me. If I knew any better, I'd say you're trying to troll me at the moment. A regular admin handles an argument with reason, and doesn't add gas to the fire. Your "smart" (yes, I called them '''''"smart"'''''), snappy, troll-esque responses to my posts only provoke more "rude" responses from myself.

| Hey, I know we have bad history, etc. but you '''have''' to do something about Semicolon and Clarinet Hawk. People are leaving this place because they choose to bully people they place in their negative opinion, this leads to things like RAN and I leaving this place. We were good contributors, and I did deserve my block for socking/asshattery, but RAN was actually helping (as much as he and I do not along). Major contributors leaving will make a dent in the wiki's community and its activity. You, Smoreking, and Miles do your best to keep this place organized, official, and in shape, but it seems like the two stooges mess all of that up. If you want proof of their actions, just ask me. I can rally up some links for you. This is a serious matter. If these two don't stop, they'll have to BE stopped. I'm surprised no one is bothered with this. I thought I might need to pitch in (someone unlocked the IP). Cheez provided the link to the blog (that was recently deleted) and I took a peek, which was the first "peek" in a while. You've had arguments with him before; you know how he is. He's basically me with power, to be brutally frank. I know I'm not the only one who sees this. No user can exist peacefully as an editor if they're being constantly harassed by admins, in which they can do nothing in their defense.

| :IP, I'm presuming you are BNK. Here's a newsflash: if the wiki was actually important then users leaving would be a big deal. But it's not. It's a wiki. The content will remain preserved no matter what anybody does, and the content will remain if every user leaves. I'm not concerned about activity, because in truth, what else is there to do? And who really wants to spend hours of their life deleting or flagging crew/smasher pages? If that's your thing then go at it, but turns out that it's really dull and annoying and I don't blame anybody for not wanting to do it. I'm grateful when they do, but really, I don't give a damn about edits to character pages and trivia sections and trophies and what is more or less plaque on the actual pages people read. That's what RAN was doing in terms of "content" contributing, and when he wasn't editing talk pages pointlessly outside of that he was being a nuisance. Now, I think I know what this is really about, and it's not about the wiki. It's about you feeling spurned and angry at me/Chawk. Here's something you probably weren't expecting, but here it is: I'm sorry I was a douche to you. Half the time you didn't do anything to deserve the cruelty, but I was overly cruel on multiple occassions. I was still right most of the time I chastized you, but I didn't need to be so damn mean while making those points. But here's something else. If you feel spurned by this place then here's a life lesson: don't take it personally. It's the internet. Not real life. Real life matters, but only infrequently. The internet only matters if you make it matter. I don't bear any ill will to you, but the truth is you were a net-negative contributor. You added content, yes, but in general you caused a lot of wikidrama we didn't need. You made fusses about stuff that you should have let lie, and you acted personally affronted every time somebody said or did something nasty in your direction. I'm sorry you were emotionally injured by Smashwiki but it's time to move on. You can blame me for a decline in activity, but I'd like to see you prove it. I stopped coming here with any frequency last May. Back then the wiki was fine in terms of activity level. The truth is the activity level has gone down because there isn't anything else to write about. The game has been out for nearly 2 years and most of what can be written about it already has been. Is that so hard to believe? [[User:Semicolon|Semicolon]] ([[User talk:Semicolon|talk]]) 20:37, February 4, 2010 (UTC)

| :::Semicolon, I accept your apology. It's just sometimes you need to chill out when dealing with idiots. Wasn't it you who said that arguing with them only brings you down to their level? when an IP visits the wiki and makes blogs about fake glitches or vandalizes pages with "I like this character!", all you need to do is realize that that person IS an idiot and leave it at that. Block him for however long you feel necessary if he continues to be a vandal. I never knew RAN was a problem until now; usually SK or Cheezperson have positive feedback about him from IRC. Things have been written, but we can still re-word it better, too. '''I too am sorry for being an asshat.'''
| |
| :::Penguin, I didn't mean to sound as if I blamed Semicolon and Clarinet Hawk for the loss of users. In truth, people left due to the drama + nothing being able to be done (not a lot, at least). Clarinet Hawk and Semicolon's only problems were the way they handled users... OK, how they handled idiots. Most of that involved unnecessary flaming, etc., but hopefully from now on things will change. This place can be a network used by AiB's community; Miles has helped advertise it. Really, there wasn't much wrong with how you use your powers, it was how you talked to people. Like I said, let's hope for something more positive from here on out. :) And yes, I'm BNK.

| |
| ::::The FACT is, These two mods rule this site with a douchebag fist. I've tried to come to terms with this, and I suppose I have, but the fact remains.
| |
| ::::Semicolon, your apology is entirely neutralized by your established and direct mentality that "shit happens" and no one is to blame. In so much as you can tell others to get over it, they can also tell you off for it. The greater truth here is that: the internet, real life, and this website, ARE what PEOPLE MAKE THEM.

| ::::I know for a fact that people bitterly despise you two for your very poor manners. I can't speak for them, but I, for one, have most definitely decreased my activities on this site (which I still know has VERY much more potential) as a direct result of CHawk and Semicolon's relentless .... well, I can't even think of the word for their completely unneeded, unwanted, unappreciated, and down right unacceptable.... asshole-ness.

As for my causing disruption or lacking points, I'd be '''quite''' pleased to go through each and every edit on a case by case basis, slowly trying to figure out how that could possibly be true. -Were my contributions what most would consider to be substantial? I greatly doubt it. -And if that was all that mattered in life (or, SW; as you seem to consider it a separate entity), the crap you dole out would be totally justified. I can of course assume that those people who made your standard of marginal edits were not also trolled to death by the likes of you, and so did continue to contribute. --I thought a mere one or two PA's of my own were entirely justified by your own, which still continue in a steady stream.

If it's true that CHAWK AND SEMI have and will actually stop actively fucking with people (me), then I'll of course edit more.

| |
| ::::::::Zixor, here's an idea: if you really have so many problems with this site, stop coming to it. Seriously, since the day you made your account all I have seen out of you is bitching about how this site is run/maintained/has a face. If you really hate this site and the people on it, stop editing/coming. But that's not all I have to say. I'm really sick of your thought that we are going around bullying people. I can count one person that I ''may'' have somewhat bullied to get to leave the site, and I will still contend that that was for the best, even if it's something I do regret doing and don't plan to ever do again. Instead, your definition of bullying seems to include anyone who continuously argues their points that disagree with yours and uses actual rhetoric and logic is constructing their arguments. Also, your "marginal edits" were not trolled until you basically refused to accept that there is a professional scene for this game. Let me give you a little history lesson. SmashWiki was started in part by smashboards (and also in part by wikia) before the merge. In fact, it was intended to be an encyclopedia for Smash, including a large amount of information on the professional scene. I will also take this moment to point out that information as it pertains to the high-level play is much easier to verify than some random idea/thought/technique from the casual circles. So, yes, I do hold the professional scene in higher regard than the casual scene, even after only being a part of the latter for more than a year and only ever being tangentially associated with the professional scene. I have an obligation to what this site was (is) about, and a large part of that means keeping the information to the standards that would be accepted on SmashBoards. So when a user with two posts waltzes in and tells me that we should start talking about how things are "unfair" I really don't care. Then we enter into a discussion about why I (and the wiki) shouldn't care, you provide no evidence except to restate your points, tell me that my evidence isn't valid because I'm using it to support my argument (what else am I supposed to do with it?), and then say that I am bullying you because I am winning the argument. Yes, that pisses me off. If me arguing my points with you and you not being able to refute what I am saying is "bullying" in your mind, then yes I am bullying you. But that's not what bullying is. By your logic, Obama bullied McCain, Lincoln bullied Douglas, and Clarance Darrow bullied every attorney he ever faced. Oh, and when you say "I'd be '''quite''' pleased to go through each and every edit on a case by case basis" this is about the fifth time that I remember you saying something to the effect of "I could go through and provide examples and evidence, so you should accept my argument even though I'm not going to support it." That's a great way to argue. Good post.

BNK used to be, but frankly, BNK was and is, pound for pound, a much better contributor than you ever were. All you did was add useless suggestions to talk pages and never really helped the wiki become more informative. BNK has made serious contentful contributions to this wiki. That's my point. Your suggestions were not accomplishing anything. You would say 'I would like to see audio profiles of all the characters'. That's great. Who will help me grind the wheat, or bake the bread? You just wanted to eat the bread. If you seriously had ever wanted to make this wiki a better place, you would have taken your suggestions and turned them into action and legitimiate contributions. Instead you said you would have liked to see it which didn't help anybody. That's why I always 'bullied' you by telling you I didn't care about your suggestions. Because you weren't helping anyone.

| :::There aren't "nothing but complaints", there are truths as to why Ganon sucks. His jump is short, no matter how good you are, etc. Don't take it personally. I main Zelda. She's low tier too, and while I may somewhat disagree with her exact placement, I accept that she isn't the best character in the game and in a perfect skill balance, she loses to better characters. But I know that I still play my best with her, so I deal with it. You should learn to do the same with Ganon. Oh, and tiers aren't meaningless in the face of skill. Yes, skill can be more important, but you are a total idiot if you think that there is no way that the innate pros and cons of characters doesn't matter. Here's an example. My friend Shane is one hell of a hunter and a damn good shot. So let's say he and I go head to head and he has a bow and arrow (which he is very good with) and I have a M4 (which, while I can shoot, I don't know that much about). Even though the M4 is clearly better, my money is on Shane. But now say I've got the Farsight from PerfectDark. That thing is so much better (auto-aim, shoot through walls) that his skill don't mean crap. The first example is kinda like the Zelda v. Ganon match-up, the second is basically Ganon v. Meta Knight. Tiers exist whether you like them or not. And the next time you say something to the effect of "you can ban me for saying this..." I will take it as you requesting to be banned. If you think you are going to be banned for saying something, then you shouldn't be saying it. And if you don't think you're going to be banned for saying it, why are you prefacing it with such nonsense in the first place?

| | |
| Because I didnt know he actually got blocked. I thought that users who do vandalism recieved one or two warnings in their talk page before getting blocked. Since his talk page was empty, I though nobody blocked him yet. As I can see in his block log, we wont have any problem with him before at least 8 years.

| The intention of the "don't remove comments" rule is so people don't have to wade through revisions to see what-all people have said. Deleting a page keeps the comments intact, but only admins can see it, and in the case of vandal accounts it can be better to hide the comments from the general public.

If they whine for "teh unbanz" they get perma-baned. If the response sucks, they get the month without the talk page. Sound good? It should be amusing if nothing else.

| :When over 80% of their past 100 contributions have been in their userspaces, I'm inclined to disagree with them "trying to improve". They still constantly talk about their own made-up useless tier lists on IRC (and wiki), and even when they do edit the mainspace it's generally a sub-par contribution. To me your proposal seems like "playing with your food"-- I don't believe you think they have a chance to "succeed" at writing, and you mostly just want to see it because you'll think it's funny. I typically don't block people just to unblock them a day later-- if the block was warranted in the first place, I see no reason for it to be overturned, regardless of what they may think about it. They have repeatedly failed to be a useful contributor, and an essay about why they have been (which is bound to be false) doesn't change that. They can try again in a month, if they truly believe they're valuable to the wiki. <span style="font-family:vivaldi; font-size:12pt">[[User:Shadowcrest|<span style="color:#4682b4">Shadowcrest</span>]]</span> 22:11, August 17, 2010 (UTC)

| :What Shadowcrest said, tbh. That would be ultimately pointless. However, if your aim was for them to see your above comment and be so pissed off that they'll be tempted to not return after their blocks are up because they no longer trust the admins, job done.

| ::2)I'm kinda torn on this one. On the one hand, I did tell him I would do this, but part of me wants to give him this one. I gave him a chance before and it paid off, so I think I'll let this slide for now...

| Why did you delete my page Steel Type Pokemon? It is perfectly fine![[User:Mesuxelf|Mesuxelf]] ([[User talk:Mesuxelf|talk]]) 22:41, September 21, 2010 (UTC)
| |
| :Because this isn't PokémonWiki. Yes, it's great that Lucario and Steelix are steel type pokemon and they're in Smash, but there is no reason for a page devoted to that information to exist on SmashWiki. <span style="font-family:vivaldi; font-size:12pt">[[User:Shadowcrest|<span style="color:#4682b4">Shadowcrest</span>]]</span> 22:44, September 21, 2010 (UTC)

| :Hi, I sent said email since NIWA is currently taking steps to set up a Super Smash Bros. wiki. We like SmashWiki and have talked to Shadowcrest in the past, so instead of creating a competing wiki right off the bat, I'm offering to host SmashWiki on an independent domain (currently ssbwiki.com). So if there's any interest in leaving Wikia, let's continue to discuss this. --[[User:Porplemontage|Porplemontage]] ([[User talk:Porplemontage|talk]]) 20:21, September 24, 2010 (UTC)

| :In my opinion, anyone who wants to contribute to the new wiki can, and if you're not interested you can continue to contribute to SmashWikia. I will eventually leave SmashWikia for SmashWiki, but nobody is being forced to come with me. <span style="font-family:vivaldi; font-size:12pt">[[User:Shadowcrest|<span style="color:#4682b4">Shadowcrest</span>]]</span> 20:30, September 29, 2010 (UTC)

| |
| Hi, just letting you know (or reminding you) that Toomai and I have proposed some new logo designs for the new Wiki. You can check mine out [http://www.ssbwiki.com/User:Mako_Shark/New_logo here] and Toomai's [http://www.ssbwiki.com/User:Toomai/New_logo here]. It would be great if you could let us know what you think.
