I need you or another admins help, my other account was blocked wrongfully.

Hello, I was wondering if you could help me with an issue I am having. Admin "Evil Tim" blocked me for no reason thinking I was some guy named "Burt", which I am not, my name is Danny. I tryed to contact him about it on my blocked account "Glock17gen4", but it wouldnt let me so I'm forced to use this account I made. I tryed to contact him and I have no received a reply, I think he is ignoring the msg or something. I was wondering if you could help and unblock my other account, thanks.

Some help

Hello! You appear to have banned my main account "QueenSasha24" for the reason of it being a "spambot name". Well I assure you I am not a spambot, the name was given to me from a roleplaying community. I would really appreciate if you guys could unban my account, as I had some contributions to make to our wonderful site. :)

Sorted this one out for you. Evil Tim 22:35, 15 April 2012 (CDT)

Permission to restore a deleted article

I recently got the video game Alliance of Valiant Arms on Steam, and I noticed that we used to have an article for it but it was deleted. Since you were the one that deleted it, I wanted to ask if it was alright if I had a go at making an article for the game. As you can see from my past works (such as Project Reality and my overhaul of Battlefield 2), I will give thorough descriptions of the weapons and good-quality screenshots of their use in-game. I hope to hear back from you on this, and wish you well. Orca1 9904 02:25, 23 April 2012 (CDT)

Template

Hey man. I am working on creating some templates for the site. They are all pending admin approval of course but I need to recreate a template which you previously deleted. (Template:!). This template basically allows the use of the pipe character ("|") when passing arguements to a template. You can look HERE on the MediaWiki site for more information. Just wanted to let you know that I am recreating this template for a purpose. Let me know if you have any questions. :-) --Zackmann08 16:59, 24 April 2012 (CDT)

Do you like the Spoiler Template?? I saw the change you made which is totally fine by me. I was just going off of what appeared on most of the pages... :-) --Zackmann08 19:11, 2 May 2012 (CDT)
Sweet. I will sell you on the Infoboxes somehow... I haven't figured out how just yet.... :-p In the meantime though, I am still working on converting gun pages to wikitable. Just finished all the pistols. Working on Submachine guns now. Then I'm gonna tackle snipers. :-) --Zackmann08 19:32, 2 May 2012 (CDT)

Question regarding caps

Do you auto-adjust the color on your screencaps or just use them as-is? --Funkychinaman 18:44, 26 April 2012 (CDT)

I've been using the auto-adjust when a scene a little dark and I have trouble making a firearms ID, but I was wondering if I should do it for all of them for the sake of consistency. --Funkychinaman 08:32, 28 April 2012 (CDT)

Spambots

Make sure you blank the "reason" text box when deleting spam pages, I have a suspicion they hope you don't since they almost always put links where they'd show up. Not sure if they can get referrals from the recent changes page, but it looks like that's what they're hoping for. Evil Tim 07:51, 2 May 2012 (CDT)

1000 Ways to Die

Yeah sorry about the method I was using was the only one I know but I will download the photo program you mentioned. But for now I think it's best to keep them like they are for now since those handful of screenshots took me about three days to upload. If there is a problem with the page itself of the another problem with the photos I am open for discussion --Mr.Ice

This is NOT A valid entry. This is basically a DOCUMENTARY series on SPIKE TV that does re-enactments. It is not a narrative series. Though I would love to include the reenactments, that would open the door to all the documentary shows which have re-enactment segments like "America's Most Wanted" or any of the numerous History Channel Shows.....MoviePropMaster2008 21:41, 2 May 2012 (CDT)

Specifications

Why are we changing up the specs? The format that Mateogala is using is different from 90% of the pages. Seems like we should keep the same form. If he wants to add additional info, can we at least keep the bullet points?? --Zackmann08 16:45, 3 May 2012 (CDT)

RE: Screenshots

Alright, I hadn't noticed a huge difference, but I will save as PNGs nonetheless. Thanks for the tip!----JazzBlackBelt-- 19:48, 4 May 2012 (CDT)

RE: The Collector

Sorry for the late reply, I was having issues trying to leave a message. Anyways, I thought cropping most of the image would have helped clear the image of unnessecary space (and save server space). But if it's the rules, it's the rules, and I'll upload the entire image. And I really can't get any better resolution for screencaps. I got them from print-screening off of Youtube, and I don't have access to any fancy capture-devices or high-quality media players (nor do I have the money to). And the shotgun is a Mossberg 500, as when the Collector grabs the shotgun from the police cruiser, the safety is briefly visible. - User:1morey May 6, 2012 9:10 AM (EST)

Sand Pebbles

Nice job cleaning up the page and so on and so forth. Did you replace the screencaps with caps from a Blue-Ray? they look clearer. --Jcordell 13:32, 7 May 2012 (CDT)

New Template

So I just made a new template that I think you might like. It is an expansion of the TV Title that allows you to use it for pages that have been split by season. Template:TV Title Season. --Zackmann08 18:28, 11 May 2012 (CDT)

After you take a look, let me know something. Should it be television SHOW or television SERIES. I've seen it both ways... --Zackmann08 18:41, 11 May 2012 (CDT)
