User talk:Stooben Rooben



It's-a-me, Guy Tim!
Hello Stooben. I readed your article at The 'Shroom. What do you think 'bout an article 'bout the Snufit Ball? We can make it, if you want. And one thing more, I was almost forgettin'. What's the code for dat thing that says who's viewing your page?

(!) Yap, I wanted that thing. And, anyways, your Snufit Ball text is great!

It message was broght to you by:

Hey S.R.
Wanna be friends.

From Purple Koopa Bro.

No problem mate, I know you must be even busier now that you have the inconvenience of having to use a public library (I hate those damn places), and mostly due to your 'Cratness.

Oh, and one thing to ask (sorry, another question to add to your reply...) - What can Bureaucrats do that Sysops can't? Unless I'm mistaken, the big B's can promote Users to Sysops - correct?

I'm doing good. Tell Dom I say hello btw. ^^

B-b-bureaucrat
Wow Stooben! congrats on being a bureacrat. That musta been a wonderful surprise. You deffinantly diserve it and I hope you use ur powers to make the Mariowiki world a much better place!

Kon_nichiwa!!
http://seikatsu.files.wordpress.com/2008/01/lovecon_cap.jpg Hi there! -, ^

http://blog.pucp.edu.pe/media/77/20080611-koizumi.jpg I'm fine!! ;D  Thanks!!!! n,n and you?

Well, Bye bee!!! ^, ^

O: A Bureaucrat?! Congrats, buddy! Sorry I didn't notice earlier, but wow! You certainly worked for it! And you are probably the most deserving of it! :D

ZOMG! Congrats St00by!!!!! -_^ Good luck with your new rank!!!!

Your berry welcome. -_^


 * Well it's only true. ;) You really deserved that promotion, and good luck with it! I knew it was going to happen soon, and well, now it's true.

Awesome News!
Just check out my profile to find out! :wink: -Tabuuownsall132x2


 * Yeah... That pretty much happened. I won't lie; this place has not been one of my priorities. I been chillin' with some friends, learnin' some guitar, and, of course, playin' some games. :P Plus my English and Speech classes have been taking up a lot of time. D: So yah... How you been? PS Oh, and you're a crat now eh? Sweet.

More Mario Series Recommendations
In the common items section, you list Mini Mushroom and Mega Mushroom. But for Mini Mushroom you wrote they are "fairly rare" even though they are in the common items section. And Mega Mushrooms are probably as rare as well. So I would actually just remove those two sections from the article, and then actually move Coin into items as it is more of a collectible than an interactive object. --


 * Well it's up for debate, but the Mini and Mega Mushrooms don't appear in many of the games listed in game overview at the beginning of the article. They may have one major appearance, but then a few little ones.  Also, Peach and Toad used Poison Mushrooms in Super Mario Kart, not Mini Mushrooms (I corrected that information in the Mini Mushroom page).  Perhaps Poison Mushroom would be a good replacement for both Mini and Mega, as it appears in the main series, the kart series, the Mario Party series, and the Smash Bros. series. --


 * Oh, and I think we should actually create an article about the concept of "Switches" just as we should have an article about the concept of "Blocks," so I wouldn't add it to the article...or at least I wouldn't list every type of switch, but just have one entry about the general concept and mention the varieties, then link to a future Switches page. --

;_;
Oh, my friend............ this is the end,well, nice to meet you!!!! you are cool!!!! ^, ^   ^____^   ;__;  bye bye!!!!!! n________n

with love: -,^

Yes.... ;_;

But..... I dont need my account please, delete it ;_;

Are you ready?! n_n

Yeah of course!! well, good bye!!!

Re: PMs
That sucks - generally I'm the one with computer grievances, so I feel your pain. Anyway, I'm fine with carrying on our conversation here; this also means we can talk about MWiki business at the same time XD First of all, congrats on beoming a 'Crat, and so soon after becoming a Sysop too; it reminds me of me (and 1337) over on Userpedia - funny how these things go... I have a funny story too: my Dad was moving a potted plant from one lizard cage to another yesterday, and as he tranferred pots, an egg dropped out. Further investigation yielded a half-dozen more eggs we had no clue our lizard laid in the first place, and a baby; three more chameleons have hatched today - it's insane! Back to the Wiki: SoS and I were discussing Templates over on Talk:Dragon Wario the other day, and you might wanna take a look, seeing as it's primarily your templates conscerned. Finally, do your prefer "Stooben", "Rooben", Stooby" or "SR" as a shortening of your name? I've seen you called all 4, and I'm curious ;P Talk to you later! - 18:31, 4 December 2008 (EST)
 * Yeah, when DP said Steve finally listened to his (and others') reccomended staff-changes the other day, I thought he just means Steve said he'd do something; I'm a pessimist :P But the fact that I lost-out to Princess Grapes Butterfly to be the first female MWiki Sysop validates my glass-is-half-empty mantra ;_; We might keep a couple, but we generally try to sell as many of the babies as we can, because otherwise our house will explode from all the lizards XO "Walko" is fun, but I think "Walk" is the coolest nickname. I used to call my lizard "Walky" for short, but I've decided that's too cutesy for me. That's considerate of you: now my computer's memory shall be preserved! My sig doesn't have images or backgrounds that might cause problems, but does itself glitch you up? If so I can sign with the standard template too. -
 * It's cool to think Steve listens to other people like that, instead of being a total dictator; though I heard his decision to promote Grapes has gone over like a lead balloon... At least I can cling to being the First Extended Super Mario Wikiverse Female Bureaucrat (that's a mouthfull), but if that gets overshadowed, heads will role We do our best to make sure the babies survive; we keep them for months before selling them, to make sure they have a good start on life :D Someone called me "Walk" while asking for some images being deleted over on Userpedia, and I thought it was the coolest thing (if only I could remember who it was -_-'). DP calls you "Stooby" in all our conversations, so it's become second nature for me to do it too (hope ya don't mind - blame DP, not me XO). The  thing's what messes me up too (the sigs streak); I also phase-out sigs with lots of pictures to preserve my computer's memory and cut loading time. If I can't read something, I just edit the page/section (or view source if it's protected) to see the coding; I deal with the blue formatting boxes the same way. -  00:16, 6 December 2008 (EST)

Desperate times call for desperate measures, I guess. You're too kind: I've gotta edit WAY more before I'd be Sysop-worthy (though that didn't really matter on Userpedia, which still baffles me to no end). I like some bugs, but not most of 'em. Uniju called me "Walko" - he meant it as an insult, but I thought it was funny XP Oh, God, sorry about that. I saw the one you used in your message but when I cut-and-pasted it for reference when I responded the s obviously didn't show up. Gah, stupid me! X_x At least it was fixable; I have to type in the edit addresses in my address bar all the time to bypass the obscene loading times of some peoples' talk pages. Maybe animated images use up different memory banks? I dunno, it's just a guess. By the way, it's 2:30 AM right now for me - I am beyond tired. But I've gotta finish my project before someone else swoops in and steals all my easy edit-boosters :evilgrin: Je suis paranoid (et fatiguée). - 02:24, 7 December 2008 (EST)
 * In the past I tried to make as few edits as possible - doing articles all at once instead of section-by-section, to spare the Admins the task of patrolling it all. Then I became a Sysop over on Userpedia and discovered that it was easier to patrol edits when they were done section-by-section, because it was easier to focus of looking for typos (I found that by the time I got to the ends of big articles I just didn't care anymore). I also realized no one really patrols anyway, so all I was doing was making myself seem less contributive. So now I edit section-by-section; but I still Preview, because typos are FTL. Of course, the amount of stuff I do is still dependant on school - I've had WAY too much homework the past few days, and I've been putting off my University applications for a month <_< Same here; I also like Dragonflies: they're cool and they eat mosquitoes! Your talk page is fine... for now ;) Yeah, I do my best work at night; and it's so hard to stop editing once you're in the groove! -  22:50, 11 December 2008 (EST)

Yo
Whattup Stooby? Aluigi, The Luigi Legend! Whut Stuff? 15:22, 5 December 2008 (EST)
 * Uhm, I quit the 'Shroom a few months ago..

The Wild DOM Missed its Opportunity!
Holy 'Crat!

That's what would have been the perfect alteration of my long-running joke series, as it perfectly fitted the situation. And I didn't even think of it! Dayum.

Anyway, I'll reply to your recent reply soon, but right now I actually have something Wiki-related to ask: (wowee)

Oh yeah, and.... um, I feel guilty about wasting your important Bureaucrat time. I'm sorry about wasting it...


 * Cool. I hate it when my life is hectic. :O And I haven't really learned any real songs yet... Just like Ode to Joy and whatnot. I'm using my sister's guitar book to teach myself. Kinda. But yeah, it's fun. I'm really only learning it so I can borrow a bass from my friend and try that out. :P Then me and my other friend might get together and make a band. Maybe. I've been doing good, though. :D

"Watched"
I can't do anything destructive w/o sysop powers, b/c vandalism is so easy to revert, and restoring isn't. So my brain should calm down soon, but w/e... 16:53, 7 December 2008 (EST)
 * XD No problem. And say, now that I'm a bit more active here and the position is vacant and all, could I write the Fake Music section of the Fake News? 23:49, 7 December 2008 (EST) Good luck on becoming the director!

[>◘_◘]>
Hi, Stooben. Nothing much is going on with me, just doin' stuff :p You?

CONGRATS!
CONGRATS TO TEH 'CRATTYNESS! SORRY FOR BEING LATE, BUT WHAT DO YOU EXPECT FROM ME? I'M NO MAILMAN, FOR CRYING OUT LOUD. MAYBE I SHOULD JUST SHUT UP... 12:50, 8 December 2008 (EST)
 * YES. BY THE WAY, COULD I GET MY BLUEBERRY SCONES WITHOUT BLUEBERRY? DON'T WORRY, WE CAN STILL CALL IT BLUEBERRY SCONES. JUST DON'T TELL ANYONE I ACCIDENTLY BLEW UP THE POOL ROOM FOR RETIRED ALBANIAN CITIZENS. 14:19, 9 December 2008 (EST)
 * BLUEBERRY SCONES WITHOUT BLUEBERRY WITHOUT BLUEBERRY SCONES? EEEEW, NASTY! AND THAT BLOWING UP, IT WAS ONLY AN ACCIDENT. DO YOU THINK I REMEMBER FROM SCHOOL THAT SODIUM AND WATER, LIKE KETCHUP AND VANILLA ICE, DON'T MATCH? IT FEELS LIKE I'VE BEEN SELLING SKIS IN NIGERIA. :( 15:59, 10 December 2008 (EST)
 * AAH, BLOWING STUFF UP. FOR SOME REASON, IT REMINDS ME OF THE FORUM, XZELION, HEADS AND INTERROGATIVE PRONOUNS. AND I THINK I'LL PASS THE LOBSTER CAKE. AFTER ALL, I SELL GREEN MANDOLINES, DON'T I? I'VE NEVER ACTUALLY PLAYED THE MANDOLINE, BECAUSE MY PARENTS WANTED ME TO GROW UP TO BE A TRIANGLE PLAYER. IN A RIGHT TRIANGLE, WHEN CALLING THE HYPOTENUSE C AND THE OTHERS A AND B, YOU CAN USE PYTHAGORAS' TRIPLE TO FIGURE OUT THAT A^2 + B^2 = C^2, WHICH EXPLAINS THAT THE AREA OF A DOUBLE HYPOTENUSE IS EQUAL TO--*HEAD ASPLOSION* 09:33, 11 December 2008 (EST)

Hey, do you think you can come into Chat please? I need someone to talk to cuz I'm reeeeeeeeeally bored. :( -- 15:46, 8 December 2008 (EST)

Pokemon DP
I can see why that troll isn't a SysOp here. Did you see how he started bashing me at the forums? I don't want to drag you into this, but then again I don't want to burn the **** out of Pokemon DP and get banned from here. Oh, and you're moving? D: □R.O.B. 128□ 21:18, 8 December 2008 (EST)
 * Thanks for the line of work XD And hey, if you are elected the new 'Shroom director, and you're a shoe-in for the job, I'd be happy to take over the Fake News. But of course it's your decision. 00:13, 9 December 2008 (EST)

And thanks, if you win the election, which you will, I would be honored to be the new fake news director!

"Return" to the Wiki
Well, it's not like I've been away. I still check my watchlist every day, whether there's some user rename requested or a new proposal I have something to say for. But now I'm no longer bureaucrat (which is a correct decision concerning my inactivity) and I had nothing to do any more.

Well, the main reasons for my absence where my lack of interest after writing so much already, not enough time on my hands in my final school year, no new games I got, and a lacking motivation to find something that could still be edited. - 16:10, 11 December 2008 (EST)
 * College eh? There's nothing comparable here in Germany. In fact, considering that I am allowed to go to university by passing my final exams next year, I'm already in "college". ("Kolleg" form) Anyway, that Mario series article looks superb and there seems to be lots of work in it. Great job so far. One question: Why is Mario Party both in the general timeline overview and the spin-off series list? - 16:56, 11 December 2008 (EST)

*Picks on Stooooooben* YES O RLY? Alex25, Aluigi, Master Hand, Whatever. 19:08, 11 December 2008 (EST)

Holy Cram! (That's What I Did for my Exams)
Unless I'm mistaken, there are no more possible ways to use that joke. Or are there?

Yeah, I just got my end-of-year report. I failed Maths with a D (E for the exam). Epic fail... LOL, half the stuff they teach in that subject has no use in future life.

Well, I have in fact used the camera now, for my more recent YouTube videos. You can have a look, although you probably won't get the Pokemon ones... I'd love to see your videos :P

Wait, did you say you beat Tabuu with only 2 of the characters you chose? That's.... extremely good.

LOL, Aussien00b. I don't exactly know much about your country, but sadly we know much more than you guys do about us, due to the huge amount of American TV shows we get >_>.

Another thing we don't have - Arbor Day.

I'm worried that this Christmas will be terrible, because there are no decent new games coming out. Seriously, can you even name one Mario game, for Wii or DS, that has been released shortly before Christmas? I can't. And I always get at least 2 games for Christmas each year, but this year I don't even know what I want. If I get no good games, Christmas is wasted, meaning the whole year is wasted. The only thing that gets me through each year is the thought that at least the end brings a great reward. But this year... do you understand my philosophy?

Well, it sounds like 'Crats are powerful. You certainly deserve to be one.

I dunno why I stay here, considering how many problems I find here - almost as many as in my non-virtual life.

Re: Sprites
Hi, Stooben, sorry for answering so late on this. I saw that someone created an article on me in Userpedia, so I guess sprites and stuff are needed for this. Well, some years ago, I made a personal sprite that was a recolored Kirby with cyan skin like Ice Kirby, blue feet/shoes and a red cap like Wheel Kirby's one, so with a color scheme like this:

Skin: Feet/Shoes: Cap: If you could make some sprites, I'd be fine. :-) --Grandy02 15:45, 12 December 2008 (EST)
 * 'kay, thank you! ^^ --Grandy02 16:50, 12 December 2008 (EST)

Hey!
We haven't talked for awhile and today is my birthday!


 * I'm not having too much trouble. Well, I only know like 15 notes. :P But it's fun. And yeah, I don't have a bass yet. :( It sounds so awesome, though. :D And Hotel California is a great song; I haven't payed any attention to the bassline, however. :O I better start out with something easy, though, cuz Muse and Radiohead have some intense basslines for their best songs. >:D Where might I find a tab or instructions to play that song you mentioned? And who's it by? I'll try it out! :P

You may think I crazy but can you please demote me. I wasn't nominated like the other SysOp and also on User talk:Porplemontage Section 62 a few SysOps wanted feedback on my promotion. 20:56, 12 December 2008 (EST)

Yeah please do. I wasn't nominated and that does seem fair to me or to the others.

St00btastic!
Yes, hence the section. Hi there! I see you been working very well, better than me perhaps. ;o All I can say is good luck. :3 While you do that work of yours, I'll be uploading moar images continuously, after this game I'm playing of course. Bust-a-Move... XP You played that game before? Interesting, you don't seem to be going to the chatroom, prevent distractions yes?

Are you serious? Wow... your connection is worse than mine, except it's in the decent scale at the least. The internet's taking it for the worst I'm afraid... Guitar Hero?! Lawl, my lil' bro wanted to play that game SERIOUSLY. Despite that we now have the Xbox 360, he's playing Call of Duty 2 or 4 right now. I'm starting to build up my gaming blocks right now, starting with some causal games. Since I rarely played a next-gen gaming console, I have no idea what the real deal is going to be... I was hyped to play the Spyro and Crash series back then in 1999. I was once having a phobia of playing a game of Tetris, (or Tetris Plus as the actual title). Those damn spikes gots me really nuts! So I rather lock the door and cover myself. My fear went away when my lil bro and I played VS. Battle together. It was a nice game. :3 BTW, if you really want to know what I'm talking about, see this img! SPikEs!!!1111! My reader says "not" going to the chat may increase the chances on working hard and hardly getting distracted. XD

Community Service
Het Stoob! Noticed you're running for office and it seems like you have a lot on your plate. I was just wondering if you needed any help on the shroom or something. Laters! (P.S I have a special christmas surprise for you.(P.P.S don't take that the wrong way. I'm just trying to be a kind person.(P.P.P.S please don't hurt me)))

I'm Editing Stuff - It Feels Good
Just letting you know that I uploaded a Bingo image for that new article you started, and fixed the article. I did you a favor, I hope.

RE: Wow
Thanks! :D The thing is, though, I should be doing my homework now. XP I oughtta really be able to get more active when Christmas break starts next week, though.

Re: Kirby Manga
Okay, I answered him. It's actually not hard to find them because they are available on the Internet's most popular Kirby fansite in English, Kirby's Rainbow Resort. --Grandy02 17:06, 14 December 2008 (EST)
 * Ha, I know just a few of notes on the 1st-4th strings. :P And yeah, if you like Assassin, take a listen to Hysteria. It's on their Absolution album. It bleeds raw emotion... Wow, that was profound. :O Some other great bass-filled songs are Starlight and Plug In Baby; both underrated by incredible guitar and beats but still quite fantastic. And Radiohead's National Anthem has a great bass. I'm pretty sure my friend likes that site, by the way, so I'll check it out. :D

Advice
I need to talk about this this and this, please. -

Hey
When you get this, I need to talk to in Chat. I'm kinda... um... yeah, I can't think of the word after what happened. ._. --Meta Galactic 15:49, 15 December 2008 (EST) Please? :)

Okay Stooben. I'll stop. Toad4566

Request
Could you make templates and  collapsible? Thanks. --

RE:Yo

 * 1) Really?
 * 2) Thanks for telling me.
 * 3) Life turning to the s word? I'm sorry to hear that =O.


 * 1) Um thanks. =)
 * 2) lolz.
 * 3) Yikes! (BTW Something like that happen to my sister when she was at collage.)

Yup, luckily she was able to move out and found another place to stay.

Yeah, um.... that Really Sucks.
First, to reply:

I do not have to redo the year. However, one of my chosen subjects is Specialist Maths (which you have to do on top of Maths Studies, the regular course) - a very advanced course which the maths nerds all choose. However, I dunno if they'll let me in with my result... I hope they do, as Hess is doing it.

So, er... what's your YouTube username?

If you won with 3 characters, your skills are truly epic. I don't think I've ever done better than that.

Respect trees..... *grabs chainsaw*

Well, that is... awful, to say the least. ;_; It's good that you appreciate small things- I cannot say the same for me, as I am highly dependent on entertainment for survival, as boredom is what nearly led me to suicide a few years ago. Boredom is dangerous...

I'll respond to your PM... in time.

And I know this is a bit nosy, but I happened to look at your message on PGB's talk page - and now I see the reason for your status. You make my life seem... pretty good.
