User talk:Ajraddatz

Contact
Hello Aj, hey I need to talk to you (non-urgent). Do you have an account on the US server? If not, how can we contact each other? You have a Facebook, Skype, messenger? It has nothing to do with the periods issue, I just wanted to have a general chat with you. 04:09, April 20, 2011 (UTC)
 * I have skype, and my username is ajraddatz on that as well. I'm pretty busy right now, though, so we'll need to wait until the weekend. 13:35, April 20, 2011 (UTC)

Champion Checklist
Hello Aj! Well it seems that the community has decided whether we are going to be modifying the template and it seems that there are more support votes than oppose votes. The code is going to be "undecided". Also, if I have the "power" to do it myself, it would be nice to teach me so that way I can have more experience with templates. Talk to you soon! 23:26, April 22, 2011 (UTC)

Ok. I will add a picture to the wiki of a yellow line and that will be the icon. Give me about an hour to upload it. 23:47, April 22, 2011 (UTC)
 * I didn't look at the template before, and I'm not sure if I can add to that one O_O - would you be able to make an image of the yellow line at the size you want it to be for me? I am incompetent when it comes to making/editing images :3 - I think I know how to do it if I have an image. 23:45, April 22, 2011 (UTC)


 * I'm not certain on what you want tech (I want a tilde) but I have no idea at all how to make a .svg file. HOWEVER, I have so much free time I thought I'd take a crack at something.... File:Maybe.gif NeonSpotlight 23:58, April 22, 2011 (UTC)


 * Needs to be the size of the other icons, sorry :3 00:01, April 23, 2011 (UTC)
 * Uploading right now. Please check the picture and see if you can center it in anyway. 00:01, April 23, 2011 (UTC)


 * Those suckers are huge though : ( Mine is 400x284, the ones in use now are 600x600 NeonSpotlight 00:02, April 23, 2011 (UTC)

Ok check this out.. 00:05, April 23, 2011 (UTC)


 * Doesn't really fit in with the rest of the options tbh NeonSpotlight 00:06, April 23, 2011 (UTC)
 * Ok I added this one. [[File:YellowLine.jpg]] 00:10, April 23, 2011 (UTC)

Why does it say free? The line is supposed to mean "undecided" and the line isn't even there? 00:15, April 23, 2011 (UTC)


 * Done - See my change here, it should work now. 00:11, April 23, 2011 (UTC)
 * I don't know, the free was already there... I added the undecided line right below that. You, sir, need to learn how to read diffs ^.^ 00:16, April 23, 2011 (UTC)

I noticed that you added the line picture in the differences..let me test it on my checklist. It isn't in the key though.. 00:18, April 23, 2011 (UTC)

Vandalism Reports
Hey Aj! Thanks for your vote on my nomination although I lost again. Anyway, I wanted to ask you how the vandalism report works, because I have attempted to use it a few times but I don't know if it completely works or not. I basically end up in a page where you have to type a message (withy no headings) but after I publish it, I am not sure if it will be sent to a mod/sysop. Am I doing this right? 22:38, April 28, 2011 (UTC)
 * Try following the instructions on the page, it will work... 23:14, April 28, 2011 (UTC)

I do not understand this part of your profile..
I have also started to play League of Legends again, and still think that it is very unfair how much at a disadvantage non-paying players are at.

What disadvantage? The only thing that paying customers get that have any semblence direct effect on gameplay is IP boosts. And that is mearly a shortcut for games played. Basically, "I have a job and a family so I'd rather pay money for IP rather than play a bezillion games like these 12 year old kids that are on spring break." It's the one thing I really like about the Freemium model of LoL. All other Freemium games I have played give very direct pay for advantages. Things like $5 will give you extra damage for a week.

My Experience
Hey. I am very stressed out about the wiki! I am getting really tired of the fact that everyone is always telling me that I don't know how to use the wiki, have experience, my attitude, and random things. I am tired that I join the wiki and nobody helps me with anything! Everyone is always saying that I lack wiki formatting, tool usage, my attitude sucks, or that I am very unexperienced, yet that's all they say to me rather than helping me become better. I don't know how to create a template, I don't know how to move pages, I don't know how to create an archive for my talk, I don't know how to make a sandbox for myself! This is the first wiki I have ever joined, and let me say that it can be a lot better in its reflections to other users. I have hardly any experience because nobody ever helps me understand the concept of formatting and all of those other things! Please help me Aj! 03:09, April 29, 2011 (UTC)

Well I want to know where I can find the page to create a template. I am not planning on adding any templates unless the community agrees to one, but I wan't to know where to find the page. Also some users say that I lack wiki formatting..what does this mean? 03:25, April 29, 2011 (UTC)
 * tbh I don't know what to do to help. You could take a short break from the wiki to regain your composure, I guess. There are lots of ways to learn how to make a template, and many other things - try a google search sometime :) 03:12, April 29, 2011 (UTC)

Template Idea
Hey Aj! I have an idea for a new template. It is similar to the Ci template but this is for editors. It would be Ei (editor icon). I think this would be great for the wiki! I made the page, but I'm not sure how to get it to work. I know tat you are a code expert so I was wondering if you could check this out and see if it will work. 03:54, April 30, 2011 (UTC)


 * Still waiting for response on this. --Technology Wizard   ,Contribs,   ~Talk~   ,E-Mail,  20:45, May 1, 2011 (UTC)
 * Sorry, it would be best to ask someone else. I'm rather busy atm. 20:48, May 1, 2011 (UTC)

Mistake Page
Hey. I don't know how to delete pages so can you delete this for me? --Technology Wizard  ,Contribs,   ~Talk~   ,E-Mail,  20:44, May 1, 2011 (UTC)
 * Done. 20:48, May 1, 2011 (UTC)

Vandal page example
Hello again. Should we keep the vandal example in the archive page or do we need it in the main report vandal page?  -- UberTri125 (#)   ($)  ''' "Buckle Up!" ''' 13:40, May 7, 2011 (UTC)
 * hehe, on the main page would be better :3 21:51, May 7, 2011 (UTC)

Stuff accidentally I D:
Accidentally I stuff D: 20:15, May 7, 2011 (UTC)
 * Wow, you are terrible with those accidents O_o 21:52, May 7, 2011 (UTC)

User Rights
Hello. I was wondering why you removed your moderator and rollback rights from the log. As far as I know, bureaucrats are supposed to have all of the rights and admins are supposed to have sysop rights. I am just a curious person :) 00:42, May 11, 2011 (UTC)
 * The bureaucrat and sysop groups have all of the rights that rollback and moderator do, so there is no need for me to have them imo. I was in the neighborhood anyways, so I thought, "why not". 00:43, May 11, 2011 (UTC)

Vandal Templates
I have constructed a couple templates that will help fight against vandalism. Check here and here :) --Technology Wizard   ,Contribs,   ~Talk~   ,E-Mail,  14:48, May 15, 2011 (UTC)

Should we use the warning template on the anon's talk? 15:37, May 15, 2011 (UTC)
 * If you want to, go ahead. You could also put those in the template: namespace. 15:38, May 15, 2011 (UTC)

Rollback Rights
I would love to have rollback rights. When things are perfect i see a some vandal go mess with something and that just doesnt seem right. The colour on my name nice is a bonus :) --LoLisNumbaWan 13:25, May 17, 2011 (UTC) Thanks for the nomination Aj. =D

Thanks Aj appreciate it :) --LoLisNumbaWan 13:59, May 19, 2011 (UTC)

A Couple Things
Hey. I was wondering what happened to the vandal link on the CM. It isn't there anymore and I am not sure where to report vandals. Next, when am/are I/we (rollback editors) supposed to get chat mod rights? Also, I really need someone to fix my vandal templates in order to start using them so they don't go to waste. 23:20, May 19, 2011 (UTC)
 * CM? Also, chatmod is currently (and seems to continue to be) assigned at the discretion of admins. I think I will make a section for requesting it on the rfp page, if it is determined that rollback should be handed out in the same way. 23:31, May 19, 2011 (UTC)

Hey. I kickbaned Demise since he requested me to test it on him and I need you to unban him. I won't kickban anybody anymore unless they troll. 01:50, May 20, 2011 (UTC)
 * k, thanks for explaining :) 02:25, May 20, 2011 (UTC)

Oi!

 * Sent request. 18:48, May 23, 2011 (UTC)
 * Ya forgot sysop rights D: 10:53, May 24, 2011 (UTC)

User Rights Flooding
I know. That is why I havn't done it. I had permission to test the ones that I did anyway, but I already found out what I needed to know. And yes, I'm done testing. 22:18, May 23, 2011 (UTC)

User Rights Nominations
Hey. I'm not sure if you have seen the recent nomination for Nystus but I need you to know something. First off, the rules for nominations for a bureaucrat (found here) were changed after I had placed my vote. The rule was that someone must be nominated by another user in order to become a nominee of bureaucrat. After I placed my vote in the opposing section (because Nystus created his own request for bureaucrat), Zelgadis87 had told him to change the rule by removing the part that says "they have to be nominated by other users". I don't think it is right that users change the rules of something for their own benefit and I wanted a bureaucrat to know. I suggested to make a community discussion about changing that rule or not, but after I had changed the rule back, Nystus reverted my edit and placed a sysop lock onto it. Let me know what you think. 00:41, May 24, 2011 (UTC)
 * The rule was put there without any community discussion, and it seems that most people are OK with self noms for crat, so I see no reason why not to remove it. 01:49, May 24, 2011 (UTC)
 * Ok then but then why are we having a discussion about the rollback nominations then? 01:50, May 24, 2011 (UTC)
 * ...because that is completely unrelated. Rollback nominations has been a de facto rule for a long time now, it makes sense to have community vote to remove it. 01:53, May 24, 2011 (UTC)

Hey. Sorry about changing the category for those nominations, I didn't know that only crats were allowed to change them (as I have changed them in the past). Also, I am worried that nobody is checking this. I found 4 vandals last night and they are still on the loose. 23:27, May 24, 2011 (UTC)

Warning Vandals
Ok yes I agree that I can warn vandals, but I didn't know if that was worth to be "bannment" or not. Also, is there a reason that you had that weird admin comment in the report? 01:59, May 27, 2011 (UTC)
 * If you were debating whether or not to block a user over that test edit, remind me to oppose any future request for adminship/modship from you. That was an obvious warn, not block. Also, I left the comment to remind you that non-admins can warn users also. 02:01, May 27, 2011 (UTC)

That doesn't seem to be user friendly. I didn't even have sysop rights when I saw that vandal. I used sysop rights in order to help with some badge icons. That was it. If you're stressed about something personal, please feel free to not take it out on me. 02:03, May 27, 2011 (UTC)
 * wtf lol? I'm saying that you displayed terrible judgment in that case. There's nothing wrong in my life... 02:04, May 27, 2011 (UTC)

Well you went from nice and informative to a little rude and informative. I didn't plan on finding any vandals to block during my 30 mins os sysop. And I brought up stress because you went from "This contributor is a great one..." to "remind me to oppose any future request for adminship/modship from you". I don't see why you would say something like that. 02:08, May 27, 2011 (UTC)
 * ...because you displayed poor judgment by reporting that vandal rather than just warning him. I don't want a prospective admin or mod blocking a user over a tiny thing like that, when a warning would serve a much better effect. I'm not talking about you being an admin, I am specifically referring to that report. And, considering that adminship isn't a reward for good work, I could still say that you are a great contributor and also oppose your RfA. 02:11, May 27, 2011 (UTC)

Well I already know that I could've warned that person, but I dont read the user block guidelines so I wouldn't know what the severity of that vandalism would've been. Sorry aj! 02:14, May 27, 2011 (UTC)
 * I don't know why there is so much fuzz, I saw what that IP user did, it was not a mistake a new use could make that would require a warning, it was downright vandalism, I would have banned him for a week. Aj we don't need to make comments like that on the Vandalism Report, he just reported the situation thinking it would be worth a ban, and you decided to just warn and that is ok. But you can't say it was terrible judging, when he simply handed over the case to the system... Imagine he warned the Ip and then some other user went and blocked the account... I don't care about the conversation you two went on but I just don't think there was any bad judgement there. 02:39, May 27, 2011 (UTC)


 * Sam is right, what I did was a bit over the top. I still disagree with the action, but I didn't need to say what I did. Sorry, 03:15, May 27, 2011 (UTC)
 * It's ok. I am sorry too for not understanding the policies (which is one of my projects [to read them]). Consider this mess over with and us to be forgiven. 03:20, May 27, 2011 (UTC)

I want your opinion
Since you are, in my eyes, the most level-headed user on the wiki I was wondering what your opinion is on comments like these: http://leagueoflegends.wikia.com/index.php?title=Special:Undelete&target=Talk%3AChampion%2F%40comment-69.22.168.28-20110528040810 http://leagueoflegends.wikia.com/index.php?title=Special:Undelete&target=Talk%3AOrianna_The_Clockwork_Girl%2F%40comment-69.22.168.28-20110528040936 http://leagueoflegends.wikia.com/index.php?title=Special:Undelete&target=Talk%3AChampion_Rotation_Schedule%2F%40comment-69.22.168.28-20110528040843 As you can see I've deleted them for now. I've noticed an increasing amount of comments promoting this site and, usually, the comments are from the same anon. NeonSpotlight 19:49, May 28, 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete it and apply a 3 month ban for external link spamming, also blacklist said site from the wiki 20:08, May 28, 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete as spam, since that is what it is, and block for 3-6 months (spammers usually don't care about blocks, they keep coming back) 23:23, May 28, 2011 (UTC)
 * Blocking a dynamic IP for 6 months is not really a great idea. The spammer will get a new IP in a few hours while the block will potentially affect unrelated people. 10:15, May 29, 2011 (UTC)
 * Which is why I only use 6-month bans on IPs who were previously banned for 3 months... 12:46, May 29, 2011 (UTC)
 * Exactly, hence why I said 3-6 months. Also, blocking spambots is usually completely pointless anyways, since they tend to change IPs for every edit (not even in the same range, usually), but I have seen some spambots go back to the same IP again after some time, so it does help once and a while. 13:53, May 29, 2011 (UTC)

Repeat
Sorry for this repeated question, but do you play LoL? If so, what is your server and user name, so I can add you :) 00:09, June 2, 2011 (UTC)
 * Not yet... still don't have time :/ 00:43, June 2, 2011 (UTC)
 * Oh ok. I bet you would own everybody :P anyway, I was wondering what you mean by "re-enabling the badges". I was responding in Nystus' talk page wen I saw your message. Does that mean everybody's badges are reset or restored? 01:09, June 2, 2011 (UTC)

[http://leagueoflegends.wikia.com/wiki/User_blog:Technology_Wizard/Update:_New_Template_Addition_and_Modification_2 Click me! :)] 04:02, June 3, 2011 (UTC)

I already knew that users can't edit other user's blogs. I was going to add their names once they left a comment, like my first template idea and addition. Is my blog really a big enough deal to be a forum? 00:09, June 4, 2011 (UTC)
 * Anything that causes a change deserves a forum. 00:13, June 4, 2011 (UTC)
 * Oh ok then. 00:17, June 4, 2011 (UTC)
