User:Serpent King/Feedback/Archive 1

Hi all! This is a place for you to tell me how to improve as a user and admin. Feel free to leave your thoughts! This page is to be treated as a talk page, so please sign your comments.

What am I doing right?

Wish to give me a complement? Leave it here!

1. You are a user who is willing to help out and are pretty good with new users. Also you are active nearly all the time. Ganonmew, The Thankful Evil Clone 16:46, 10 November 2015 (EST)
2. You're very active, hard-working, and generally helpful. Nyargleblargle (Talk | Contribs) 17:12, 10 November 2015 (EST)
3. you are the best admin that i have a connection with yet (i never talked to miles or omega yet only you and nyargle) because of 1. great dispute handaling 2. activity time on this wiki 3. i like the name serpant king Nintendofan1653 (talk) 16:32, 6 December 2015 (EST)
4. You are rather kind, but aren't afraid to become harsh to warn people who deserve it. Also, you are very active during the night, along with Disater Flare, and show great dedication to the wiki. EDIT: Finally, you actually aren't dead serious 24/7 and can take a joke. 98.157.202.185 09:51, 22 December 2015 (EST)
5. You're doing real good work as an Admin as per peeps above. There wasn't much doubt before, and there isn't really much now, just keep it up. Smashedpotatoes (Talk) 04:41, 23 December 2015 (EST)
6. Almost always connected, you do your job quite nicely, very helpful and hardworking. Out of the six admins (four if we don't count PenguinOfDeath and Semicolon), you are the most active and like Nyargle, you have a big sense of humor (though I know Miles does have some humor hidden right there...). -- The 70's called. They said BeepYou was here :v (talk) 01:10, 28 January 2016 (EST)
7. Though I haven't been here too long, I already know I like you. You're helpful, active, and have a good sense of humor. I don't really know anything you could be doing wrong... BaconMaster 20:24, 6 February 2016 (EST)
8. Practically everything. You handle all my questions in the way i like it - like "edit count" a day or two ago. You're my favorite admin. (no offense to the other ones. they're good 2.) Kirby's Crazy Appetite ~ 17:54, 14 June 2016 (EDT)
9. As someone who's always been there for me, you're the one who helped me breeze through my first days on this wiki. Black Vulpine of the Furry Nation 05:54, 21 June 2017 (EDT)

What am I doing wrong?

Something I've done bothers you? Tell me here, and I'll see what I can do to fix it.

1. The only two real flaws I can point out are your dispute handling skills and mood swings. However, only the first one is that glaring. Your dispute handling skills are below average at best, and when you do try and be productive in a dispute, you end up being sort of heavy-handed at the surface. It makes me think of you as a better junior admin than a sysop. Other than this, you are really a top user. Ganonmew, The Thankful Evil Clone 16:51, 10 November 2015 (EST)
2. I have to agree with Ganonmew on the mood swings. Nyargleblargle (Talk | Contribs) 17:12, 10 November 2015 (EST)
3. While you settled my dispute between Nightgengale and me, you could really do some work there. Meaning that its the same problem Ganonmew and Nyargle see. You can also be quite moody. -- The 70's called. They said BeepYou was here :v (talk) 01:10, 28 January 2016 (EST)
4. You seem to be not as Hard as miles, toomai, tyrant or NBPoultry(talk) the Team Liquid 13:41, 27 March 2016 (EDT)
5. You become illogical and unfair when you're moody or annoyed - understandable, but just keep it in mind. Also, try to be clear on what you're trying to say in discussion- it seems answers have to be pulled out of you instead of you laying it all down. In other contexts, that's fine - for instance, if I'm getting to know somebody, I want to get answers out of them through inquiry rather than listen to them flaunt their opinions on every possible subject matter - but at least in the context of Smashwiki, or the Internet in general (due to the inherent disconnect of emotions, facial expressions, plus the availability lapses, etc.) I don't think it's really helpful and everybody would benefit if they shot it straight, myself included. Doesn't mean you need to be annoying, it's just that when you say something here on Smashwiki, try to truly say what you mean, clearly and completely. MuteSpittah (talk) 05:40, 30 April 2016 (EDT)
6. Kinda ballsed-up slightly with mismarking Drilly's last sockpuppet (because you marked it as vandalism instead). You copped a fair bit of flak for that one. Black Vulpine of the Furry Nation 05:54, 21 June 2017 (EDT)

Yeah, and Mr. Rafflesias smells like microwaved old socks as well. Not a good combination, old socks and rotting-fleshy smells. BaconMaster 17:53, 14 June 2016 (EDT)

Like you said, this page is for constructive criticism, so let me just say: I don't like you. - Drilly the Hedgehog 02:05, 20 November 2015 (EST)

...That's not constructive. Serpent King 02:06, 20 November 2015 (EST)

At all. Serpent King 02:06, 20 November 2015 (EST)

You just said "there's a place for constructive criticism". - Drilly the Hedgehog 02:06, 20 November 2015 (EST)

Yes...and "I don't like you" isn't constructive. Serpent King 02:08, 20 November 2015 (EST)

Bottom line is this: if you don't like something that I am doing, tell me what it is, what's wrong with what I am doing, how I might improve, and please allow it to make sense. Otherwise, you're waisting your time. Serpent King 02:11, 20 November 2015 (EST)

Alright, fine. I'm giving normal criticism by saying that I don't like you. I'm being honest when I'm saying that you were a better man back in August and September compared to right now, King. - Drilly the Hedgehog 02:14, 20 November 2015 (EST)

You seem to have missed the "what's wrong with what I am doing" and "how might I improve" parts. Serpent King 02:15, 20 November 2015 (EST)

Well, let's see, you disagree on my edits (like the Roy) and say someone else's revision is better, and you don't even let me rollback vandals' edits, even though I really wanna take care of that myself. Not to mention that you're way more serious than you were prior and you criticize me from time to time, which didn't occur 2-3 months ago. I like the old Ryan King as opposed to the present one. - Drilly the Hedgehog 02:22, 20 November 2015 (EST)

So you have a beef with me for disagreeing with you and rolling back vandalism? Serpent King 02:24, 20 November 2015 (EST)

What do you think my answer will be? R.I.P. The Serpent King I once enjoyed August-September 2015 - Drilly the Hedgehog 02:26, 20 November 2015 (EST)

K fine. I can improve on explaining myself better if I disagree with someone, but I cannot improve...not agreeing with someone. I also cannot improve...not rolling back vandalism... Serpent King 02:28, 20 November 2015 (EST)

Then again, I kinda regret saying I can't stand you reverting edits, because you're already a rollbacker; that's your job and Toomai can't demote you. But seriously, I hate how you would tend to say my edit revision is shit and that someone else's (like the one guy we know) is better, and I still think you're better back in August and September, before you had rollback. - Drilly the Hedgehog 02:31, 20 November 2015 (EST)

1) Toomai can demote me but I have given him no reason to. Thanks anyway for dropping that point. 2) I have never once told you that your edit was shit. Flawed, yes. Shit, no. Serpent King 02:34, 20 November 2015 (EST)

Nonetheless, it's still a disagreement between two people's edits; I preferred the not-so-serious King. R.I.P. Ryan King August-September 2015. - Drilly the Hedgehog 02:37, 20 November 2015 (EST)

One last thing: you lecture me WAY too often, which didn't occur back in August and September. - Drilly the Hedgehog 02:41, 20 November 2015 (EST)

Ok I can work on that too, thank you for your feedback. Serpent King 02:43, 20 November 2015 (EST)

Was that sarcasm? (I'm serious, go back to how you behaved back in August and September, because as of now, you're driving me nuts) - Drilly the Hedgehog 02:44, 20 November 2015 (EST)

Um...no...that was sincere. Serpent King 02:45, 20 November 2015 (EST)

Alright, then. - Drilly the Hedgehog 02:49, 20 November 2015 (EST)

Comments

Bumping this; I am interested to hear what others think of my work here as an admin after a few weeks. Serpent King 23:25, 5 December 2015 (EST)

You're an amazing admin who's really good all around. Everything I said before stands except the dispute handling issue. I however think you make quite a few edit errors (i.e. The accidental rollback, though I'm at fault for it too). Ganonmew, The Festive Evil Clone 17:41, 6 December 2015 (EST)

Parroting Ganonmew, you're an amazing admin, and quite frankly, possibly even the best admin around right now. Out of all of them, you've been working the hardest, at least in my opinion, and you're willing to participate in projects as soon as you see the opportunity to participate. As of right now, I haven't seen any glaring mistakes you've made, with some minor ones that were only made due to inexperience as an admin. It's a learning experience, so I don't get judgmental over it. Beyond that, I don't think there's much else to say, other than keep up the good work, and hopefully things will really start clearing up around here with you around. :D Disaster Flare (talk) 23:48, 6 December 2015 (EST)

Also, can I just add something upon noticing what the IP said? I've realized that you are also harsh when you need to, but also, ever since you became admin, you've stopped being dead serious all the time. Ganonmew, The Festive Evil Clone 10:06, 22 December 2015 (EST)

Though concluding, you're an amazing admin. Keep it up, dude! I'd like to hear your response! ^_^
P.D.: Don't let what Drilly Dilly affect you. You're cool. -- The 70's called. They said BeepYou was here :v (talk) 01:29, 28 January 2016 (EST)

Hey thanks for your response, I appreciate your feedback! Yeah, I tend to let obviously nonconstructive criticism roll off my back, so don't worry about that! Is there anything you feel I can improve on, in addition to what you said above, though? Serpent King 02:06, 28 January 2016 (EST)

Nope, IMO. That would be it. You're welcome :] -- The 70's called. They said BeepYou was here :v (talk) 02:14, 28 January 2016 (EST)
