User talk:Walkazo/Archive 15

green

Hi there
I'm planning on changing my username. But the name I want is taken be some users who haven't been active for years. Can you do something?-- 16:10, 27 June 2014 (EDT)


 * I'd rather not: the rule reads that names only get transferred "provided you have a good reason for wanting the name (i.e. it's your established nickname on the forums)", which doesn't seem to be the case here, and it's not like the old accounts were trolls or accounts that never edited, so I would prefer to leave them alone. - Walkazo 16:20, 27 June 2014 (EDT)

Thanks for blocking the IP
Thanks for blocking this IP address ‎96.2.42.160, I did message Turboo about it on his talk page.
 * Just doin' mah job. - Walkazo 22:16, 27 June 2014 (EDT)
 * Can you please remove its two revisions 22:59, 27 June 2014 (EDT)
 * Mmmmm ok. - Walkazo 23:04, 27 June 2014 (EDT)

Out of Master Hand
Hi, can you do something about User:PrincessJojora? That user is putting false comments with other users sigs, as seen here in the latest comment. Could you please do something? - 22:05, 30 June 2014 (EDT)
 * She's already been given a Reminder for it; I would've given her a Warning but ah well, too late now: one more misstep and then she'll get a Warning. - Walkazo 22:22, 30 June 2014 (EDT)
 * Hey, if she(?) learns and does something productive, it'll be a win both ways. By the way, is it only you guys who can issue warnings? - 22:38, 30 June 2014 (EDT)
 * Well, I'm guessing it's a she based on the "princess" part, but I could be wrong (most people guess wrong about my name, lol). Anyway, nope, anyone can issue warnings: if you want, check out Warning Policy for more information about the procedure and what sort of behaviours warrant warnings and such. - Walkazo 22:41, 30 June 2014 (EDT)

Shadow Swingstress
Does that page even need to exist? I mean, it's about a generic person with no affliction or role in th game whatsoever. I've almost beat the game, and I haven't seen them once. Can someone just delete it or should I make a TPP? - 01:39, 2 July 2014 (EDT)
 * If an NPC's named, it gets a page regardless of how minor it is: see Minor NPCs. The more articles the merrier, an the more complete our coverage is, the better. - Walkazo 02:05, 2 July 2014 (EDT)

PrincessJoroa or whatever that users name is.
Should she be blocked yet? She's made made a sockpuppet account, made minor vandalism, pretended to be another user, uploaded useless images and created a fan made page. - 01:16, 11 July 2014 (EDT)
 * There's no reason to be rude with a header like that: it's not a hard name to remember, even if the user does make 99% useless edits. The other account claims to be sibling, not a sock; what minor vandalism are you talking about? Anyway, I've blocked PrincessJojora's userpage since asking her to ease off doesn't work, and have issues a last warning in general since she really is running out of leniency. - Walkazo 01:34, 11 July 2014 (EDT)
 * I wasn't trying to be rude or forceful, I simply have trouble remembering her username. Mainly the "Jorjoa" part. But I was sort of wondering how much slack a user can be given. I understand the sibling part, that sounds reasonable. - 02:04, 11 July 2014 (EDT)
 * If they're not doing damage, just wasting time and space, then they'll get more slack than if they were messing around with mainspace or harassing people to the point of disruption. But it's not an exact science at all; a lot of it's played by ear, and it can even depend on who gets there first, tbh. I.e. maybe I'd give someone a Warning for doing stupid stuff, but if someone else gives them a Reminder before I get there, then I can't do anything and they get off easy (or the other way around, with someone else giving a stronger warning than I would've). There's flexibility, which is good when it comes to managing big, diverse communities like this: there's guidelines and whatnot, but ultimately, there's still the allowance to do things case-by-case, which is a necessity sometimes. - Walkazo 11:52, 11 July 2014 (EDT)

Block the IP
Since you blocked Lhs970317, can you also block his IP address too ( 50.117.34.115), who also makes spam edits? 22:13, 7 August 2014 (EDT)
 * If he tried to edit anonymously from the same IP he was using for his account, it'll get autoblocked. They don't show up in the regular blocks logs, just Special:BlockList. The autoblocks are only 24 hours each, but will happen each time the user tried to edit with that IP, afaik, so it works just as well as manually blocking the IP. - Walkazo 22:51, 7 August 2014 (EDT)
