Error when Submiting
I am getting a database error whenever I submit an edit: A database query syntax error has occurred. This may indicate a bug in the software. The last attempted database query was:

(SQL query hidden)

from within function "SearchMySQL4::update". MySQL returned error "1194: Table 'searchindex' is marked as crashed and should be repaired (localhost)".

The edit is still going through, though, so editors, don't be alarmed. 20:00, 16 July 2007 (EDT)
 * I am also getting the same error when searching. 20:02, 16 July 2007 (EDT)

Me too, the wiki has to gotta get an upgrade on it's hardware. AHHHHH! It's the WareHard!!!!!!!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!
 * The upgrade is being processed, so the site will be down while the server is being upgraded. -- 10:50, 19 July 2007 (EDT)

Assist Trophies & Pokemon
OK, as you people may know, there has been a debate over the Assist Trophy characters. Should they have their own articles, or should they be put on the Assist Trophy page. Well, the opposed won, and the articles were STILL made. So, I am bringing it here to get more results. NOTE: The result of this poll is temporary. A new decision can be made when the game has been released.

Create Articles for Assist Trophy Characters and Pokemon

 * 1) Dodoman For Assist Trophies, AND Poke Balls.
 * 2) [[Image:Paperjorgesp.png]]  P J   Beware, I give Paper Cuts! 

Leave them all on the Assist Trophy Article and the Pokemon Article

 * 1) Bottle Wizzerd

Comments
Didn't I already open a poll at Talk: Assist Trophy? - 05:34, 17 July 2007 (EDT)
 * Yes, the opposing team won, but the people on this Wiki STILL went ahead and made the articles. So, I put it here to get REAL results. I hope you understand.

Cobold, consider Talk:Main Page our community hub page. Votes & such get more response here 17:42, 17 July 2007 (EDT)
 * There would be too little information for most pokemon and assist trophies leave as is.
 * I beg to differ. I've seen Mini-game pages smaller than Dr. Wright and Goro.

Though I do think the Assist Trophies could serve some more potential than Poke Balls... Dodester

Why even bother with any of this? Just mark the trophies as items, not where the character comes from and leave it at that. -- Chris 21:43, 17 July 2007 (EDT)

We also have a similar argument going on over the Super Abilities and Skillshots from Mario Strikers Charged.

Wayoshi
I suppose that willy was washi because Washi Hates everyone.

Yeah, I can tell this will end badly, considering this qualifies as a personal attack. -- Sir Grodus

So you're saying I should be blocked?No you don't understand maybe because that was one of the reasons.

I didn't say that. -- Sir Grodus

SO what are you exactly saying?
 * This sounds like trolling. The real problem we are having now is that Wayoshi never got punished for his actions (I'm not saying whether he deserved it or not), so we cannot easily do so with others. Abusing the hole, eh? - 16:02, 17 July 2007 (EDT)

He was demoted, he is no longer listed as a Bureaucrat or Sysop; and I really think we should just let this go. -- Sir Grodus
 * He demoted himself. Steve would have given him a second chance. I guess it was Ghost Jam who first complained about him not getting any sort of block. - 16:09, 17 July 2007 (EDT)

So. I got demoted for speaking out against a rule and got demoted. He did something so amazingly huge and also gets demoted. I see a small break in logic there. He also never got punished by demotion, and Steve was out of it for some reason, because he was going to give Wayoshi a second chance.

Dont troll Fg. Please. This is going to start a flame war.

I hate to say it, after constantly defending Wayoshi and whatnot, but I do think he needs to be punished someway. 17:03, 17 July 2007 (EDT)

I can't believe this has been brought up again. I'm over that period on the wiki. I would like this to be dropped and to continue to catch up with the past missed fortnight, thanks. 17:43, 17 July 2007 (EDT)

Too bad others AREN'T over it. Maybe some sort of punishment would calm down the masses....

Um...
Why is everyone going into a fight with each other?I thought we're here for editing and making friends,what is this now?

Please stop the fight or else I'll retire!You are in alot of hot water and I suggest you all stop.
 * Hey Fg, you just started a small one in the section above. Otherwise, I see little issues on this wiki. -_- 17:45, 17 July 2007 (EDT)

What are you talking about Washi?

No you don't understand Mr.Washi I was talking about max2 and hk-47.

Hmmm.... You'll retire, you say? That's really good motivation for me to continue.

SHUT UP

That's that negativity again. I use calm words and a calm tone.

FG: Wayoshi was talking about Mwuserpedia, most (if not all) of the fight orriginate from there. Gofer

Fg, do you want to get banned?

I don't really care what you say hk-47 and you're pissing me off.

Words like that lead you down a dark and dangerous path, young one.

First and Last warning: Stop the hate or get a 15 day suspension. Fellow Sysops, please put your collective foots down during these fights. -- Chris 21:40, 17 July 2007 (EDT)

My mind is set.
I am NOT leaving, contrary to what I said on the chat.

However, I am still deeply sorry for what I done, I insulted user,  and striked the wiki with the sublte of an Panzer MK-IV tank firing it's cannon. I know that what I did was wrong, and I am awfully sorry for it. Megatron

Dude, that's deep.

PAIR System Up
Just wanted to announce that PAIR is up, revising the FA system. Let's try it out and get some effort, and see if we can improve a former/current FA. 21:45, 17 July 2007 (EDT)

I devised the Pansy name, in case you wanted to know.
 * We could always rename it if you think it stinks, I guess... But I don't think it's bad...  08:06, 18 July 2007 (EDT)

Itadaki Street DS
WE NEED HELP ON THIS ARTICLE, AND ITS RELATED ARTICLES!!!! C'mon people, surely a few of you have this game, and this Wiki is in great need for it to be finished. Just saying.

It's Japan-only. No one has the game.

Perhaps with some good online translators we could rock the floor... but I'm no good at that. Can anyone post some good sources? 08:29, 18 July 2007 (EDT)

If all else fails, when you find foreign source, use Babel Fish or Google translator. The translation might be shaky, but they generally tend to be accurate.

Falling Apart
I... I can't believe what's happened here. Everyone has been arguing and flaming to poor steve, everyone hates each other, I can't believe it!

How could you all do this? We've all changed, and I think it was for the worst.

Those are noly some examples. I just want to know Why? What happened during that hiatus that changed us all?
 * Hk:What happened to the Funny Hk? The one that always wanted to help?
 * Xzelion: You've become worse and worse. You've become power-mad and just unbearable.
 * Even I feel ashamed at myself.
 * --Max


 * Maybe we all just became too desperate... Paper Jorge! I give paper cuts so stand back!

...

I think I'm still bitter over my demotion. I'm only just now starting to get over it. I think I should be fine by the end of the week. Xzelion is on a power trip, a trip straight to the pits of Mordor, I'm afraid.

It's the Void. That's all there is to it. It slowly consumes good communities until you get a YouTube like community. Ah, yes... I still remember the first responce comment I ever got. Something like, "Shut up and enjoy the song like everyone else or leave. You a**." So cool. I actually liked the song too. Wasn't like I dissed it. Hoo... that was a rant. 14:13, 19 July 2007 (EDT)

Well, we all seem to be getting more like our old selves again. HK has started to relax, Max seems calmer, but Xzelion is still the same. 14:22, 19 July 2007 (EDT)

I don't think Cali is doing him any good, either. I talked to him, and he doesn't seem to be soaking up any sun or catching anything gnarly. Too bad. I wouldn't be caught dead on a computer if I was in Cali. Well, maybe every once in a while.

You mean California? Lol. Paper Jorge! I give paper cuts so stand back!

It's kind of fun to think about... maybe if I wasn't a suburbanite who's home has cruddy weather for 8 months of the year I wouldn't be here. Creepy. Speaking of, I must... get away and enjoy the 2 months left of non-cruddy-ness. 15:01, 19 July 2007 (EDT)
