Re: Content Director
Hello! First of all I would like to thank the acknowldgement and the suggestions. I will certainly pursue the position, I am diligent in what I do, even if as it stands it is a hobby. I just don't know where to begin. I gave AntiZig's profile a quick scan and he seems to have some projects going. I will need to take more than just a minute to go check out his contributions though. I had, however, just recently started working on one of Lesanthosxia's projects by begining to edit and reformat the information on the ability details pages for the champions. If I would suit this CD position, I'd be glad to work toward it and fill it if I am granted the title and positioin, I just don't want to have started the one project and leave it not even 1/3 done. If you have any pointers on where I should begin that would be great. :P Sydeyc 04:37, February 29, 2012 (UTC)

Thank you
Thank you for your concerns. I also thank you for removing such a foul comment from the wiki.

Re: Template:Champions
That template would be horrendously huge. It already takes up enough space as it is with only the small icons. 03:19, March 3, 2012 (UTC)
 * I really think it's fine as it is. 03:40, March 3, 2012 (UTC)
 * Done :] 18:49, March 6, 2012 (UTC)
 * I purposefully de-bolded the non-released champion names in order to keep a lower profile for them, and also so they would be more readily discerned from the bold "Canceled" and "Concept Art" labels. If you'd like to embolden them, change the  parts at the beginning of each line to  .  06:44, March 7, 2012 (UTC)

Re: Chat Logger
I really don't know what could be the problem then. I've made a short guide for the chatbot at w:User:Joeytje50/Chat logger, so could you check if you did exactly that yourself too? Else, I don't know what could be the problem and you might want to ask someone else with a windows computer to run the bot. I have checked everything that could be the problem already, and I haven't found anything that might break it. Joeytje50 talk 18:30, March 4, 2012 (UTC)
 * Maybe you could put an enter between the two imports. Also, maybe the problem is that your computer goes into standby automatically. I am sure the import is not the problem, but please do read that guide carefully and check if everything is okay for you. Joeytje50 talk 18:36, March 4, 2012 (UTC)
 * I don't think that would have caused it to break, but it might be the cause. Are you sure your computer doesn't go into stand-by and you keep receiving the messages with your bot? Joeytje50 talk 20:32, March 4, 2012 (UTC)
 * Then the "wait" or "kill page" thing is the problem. Your computer likely goes into standby mode after you haven't touched it for too long, and then it stops running scripts etc. Of course, it won't submit the log then. Please make sure your computer doesn't go into standby mode if you want it to log the chat all the time. Joeytje50 talk 20:44, March 4, 2012 (UTC)
 * I don't know how to fix it, as you use a mac and I don't know anything about macs. Maybe you could try running the bot on a windows computer, if you can. Joeytje50 talk 21:04, March 4, 2012 (UTC)
 * I don't know how it works on macs. On windows computers, the screen goes black, yeah Joeytje50 talk 21:09, March 4, 2012 (UTC)

RE: Connection
yeah, Thankfully my connection is ok now. Well, As for chat, I'm not too fond of chat, and Teh is there so i assume it's ok. 02:08, March 5, 2012 (UTC)

Wikitable class
I haven't tried myself because I'm not sysop of any wiki. This is the closest I can find from googling "how to customize wikitable class". -- Inpursuit (talk) 06:49, March 5, 2012 (UTC)


 * I think adding the following codes into the MediaWiki:Wikia.css should do the trick:

You may modify the color code to suit LoL's style. Anyway that's how it works. -- Inpursuit (talk) 12:58, March 5, 2012 (UTC)


 * It works. You can see the result in Surge in which the "table of ability power gain" applies the wikitable class. Thx -- Inpursuit (talk) 01:25, March 6, 2012 (UTC)


 * The user from Wikipedia just suggested changing the code like so to avoid unwanted behavior which might affect more table layout other than wikitable:

Ban on user Feartheboobies
Tech, the word boob is not innapropriate. i don't understand why you banned him for that reason. I suggest removing his ban. Here is a List of innapropriate words that justify such a ban. Rapacious 11:41, March 5, 2012 (UTC)

From what i understand, you banned his username because it had the word "boobies" in it, and solely that.

Edit: To clarify, i knew it was the reason because you wrote the reason for banning. Also, I am aware that that some people find even boobs offensive, but seeing as it's not part of any standard word filters, i don't see why that user shoud take this treatment. Rapacious 01:19, March 6, 2012 (UTC)

Vandalism going unpunished
Something I noticed recently, that there is a same vandal with various IP adressess. He is messing the Skins&Trivia pages of various champions, with same edits=reducing the slideshows & deleting them. Is there something that we can do?

Btw, is the project over?

Reilock 13:52, March 10, 2012 (UTC)Reilock
 * Is this person using multiple IP's with the same base (1.1.1.something) or are they all different (proxies, IP addresses all over the place)? We can't stop proxies, unfortunately. For the first, you could request a range ban from...wikia staff/vstf, but I'm not sure that that is appropriate in the situation.  14:44, March 10, 2012 (UTC)

Kickban
Hi, Why did you ban me from chat? I've been trying for an hour to get it to work, and finally broadcast my first message. Then you banned me. The high and low of my afternoon, in the span of 3 seconds. Ryan

Re
Tech, please understand that I can't go on the lol wiki. Stop harrassing me please. Contact me somewhere else, and don't bother me. Besides, you can't honestly say that Ivo has not served out a huge portion of his block, as well as shown at least some semblence of reform on the dota wiki. If he trolls again, just ban him for infinite.

Lulu
Hi there! I'm leaving this here because I couldn't contact any mods to change some file names around. Hopefully it isn't done before you see this, so you don't waste your time going through them. :P All these files are in the most recently uploaded. I don't know how to link to files without pasting the URL and I wanted to keep the post relatively clear of clutter. If this is a problem though, for future reference, please let me know. Have a good one! --Sydeyc 04:27, March 17, 2012 (UTC)

Hello, Anon Wiki Editor here.
Just curious about this redirect in the search engine:

http://leagueoflegends.wikia.com/wiki/Lulu%2C_the_Fae_Sorceress

The previous title had "Lulu, the Fae Sorceress" with a comma in the middle and apparently the redirect to the actual page "Lulu the Fae Sorceress" without the comma in the middle has been suppressed. Isn't that counterintuitive to the purpose of a redirect? Just wanted to bring it to your attention. Sincerely AnonWikiEditor 06:38, March 17, 2012 (UTC)

Re: Avatars
I refuse to take part in any shenanigans involving mass impersonations of other users. They are confusing as shit and I do not have the patience for it. I will not use Chat if this is happening unless there is a moderator there who shares my intolerance for this practice. LionsLight 04:43, March 26, 2012 (UTC)
 * There is indeed no argument happening. You have simply discovered one of my pet peeves and I do not have the patience to use chat while this sort of shit happening, regardless of whether or not other people are okay with it. That is all. LionsLight 04:48, March 26, 2012 (UTC)

Until I see an apology, this changes nothing. Again, I ask you not contact me please. LionsLight 01:38, March 27, 2012 (UTC)
 * Thank you. And the implication is that you don't contact me unless you wanted to apologize. LionsLight 01:43, March 27, 2012 (UTC)

Re: New Champion Ability Table
I would personally love to implement it. However, it's pretty radical, and would take a while to convert every champion to using it, and I'm almost certain that some moderator or administrator will be upset that I'm going around massively changing core aspects of the wiki's primary pages.

I'm basically just lazy and don't feel like asking the administrators and stuff if I'm allowed to do it. Other than that it's totally ready to use, doesn't have any bugs or anything. 13:49, April 2, 2012 (UTC)


 * I wouldn't mind participating in a forum about it. 18:22, April 2, 2012 (UTC)


 * I was actually writing up the discussion topics as you posted that link :). Have a look. 00:05, April 3, 2012 (UTC)

Hotfix Page
Hey there Tech! I have a small question for you. If you remember, a while back, we briefly discussed me taking up of of AntiZig's projects and potentially seek out the position of CD for patch history. Now, I have gone through his list of projects and have completed some and undertaken some revision projects of my own. There are other projects on his list that I truly have no idea what they were about (namely those whose link pages have been deleted).

The question I have for you is about the Hotfix page. The page is very condensed and for good reason it isn't expanded to contain all the info about each hotfix. It is however labeled under the "Needs Patch History" category. I'm wondering whether or not I should expand the page, either by listing the changes that have been made under each, or by adding a scroll box with the full notes for each hotfix. Again, any input is welcome. Thanks. --Sydeyc 06:13, April 3, 2012 (UTC)


 * Alright then, I'll start gathering up some stuff and see what I can do to make the page more informative. I'm working on compiling all these patch notes and hotfixes in one document to make this easier :P. On another note, I generally try to get onto at least the wiki's chatroom. I've just been really busy with projects for school. I'm around the end of my semester, doing a 2 year program in 1 year. :P Real condensed and this semester has been hell. Almost done though. hahah. --Sydeyc 06:42, April 3, 2012 (UTC)


 * Hi hi, me again. I'm having a bit of an issue with the "See Also" section on the hotfix page. I've converted the list into a table, appears cleaner and can contain links to both the relevant patch notes AND to the hotfix release notes. My problem is that for some reason, the "See Also" section header is hidden if it's at level 2. But it appears when I set it to level 3. I will eventually include any relevant information from the link directly into the main body of the article, but for now it seems a little out of place. Any ideas? --Sydeyc 09:30, April 3, 2012 (UTC)

Re: Hotfix
In regards to the hotfix that's in the template, I'd love to incorporate it into its respective patch, as we do with all other hotfixes. I was just a little off about it as I couldn't find the release notes for that "mini patch" and because it is such a large hotfix (it would take up a lot of room on the patch's page). V1.0.0.118, V1.0.0.118b, V1.0.0.94 and V1.0.0.94(b) are each full individual patches and should remain in the table separately. The april fools 2011 notes could maybe go in a misc/other category. Or it could be excluded from the table alltogether and referenced to withing the V1.0.0.114 page.

I was thinking though about separating the patches in a similar way to what AntiZig was aiming for with this. Alpha and Beta are already separated by stage, but Season 1 and 2 and their respective pre-seasons are all bunched up into one. --Sydeyc 18:25, April 3, 2012 (UTC)


 * Scratch that last part, I just finished setting up the new template, where the seasons and preseasons are separated and it's just too much: too many separations, too much empty space, makes it look bad. How would I go about using a sandbox for testing out templates? I'd post the finished table there, get others' opinions. While it's not to my tastes it could suit a greater majority. --Sydeyc 19:12, April 3, 2012 (UTC)


 * I set the template in my sandbox, as I said, it's too much. I'll add a second version where preseasons are mixed into their respective season. Maybe it'll be better. Lemme know your thoughts on it. --Sydeyc 01:56, April 4, 2012 (UTC)

Patch Cleanup
I've edited Alpha Week 2 in order to try and clean up (it is flagged for it). I tried a similar setup to what more recent patch pages have. I'd like your opinion on it. If the general consensus is that it isn't good enough, I'll think of something else. Thanks :D --Sydeyc 05:32, April 9, 2012 (UTC)
 * Lol, by the time we get to season 5 the table will have enough content to not seem empty if we keep all those separations, like the items template but less cluttered. I'll get right on planning a S5 template. XD --Sydeyc 05:40, April 9, 2012 (UTC)

Blue text on black background
You might be interested to know that your profile page is unnecessarily difficult to read due to poor color contrast. Here is the supporting explanation from the NASA Ames Research Center.

Otherwise, thanks for your work on the wiki!

Re: CD
If you feel I'm eligible for it go ahead. I'm just going to try and red up on the process of the nomination and such. --Sydeyc 21:34, April 13, 2012 (UTC)

C-top
That's rather unfortunate. I changed it with the intention of making the links look more like actual "tabs," and straying from the "white boxes everywhere" theme (as part of attempting to reduce the theme clashing with the new ability templates). This was also why I changed c-top/c-bot to no longer have the big white box around all the inside content, and why I removed the left and right borders on infobox champion. 04:17, April 16, 2012 (UTC)
