Thanks Edit

I'd just like ti thank you personally for voting for me. Now that I'm a moderator, I'll do my very best to ensure that your vote does not go to waste. Thanks and cheers! Almighty Higgey (talk page) 21:26, October 21, 2011 (UTC)

Wasteland Survival Guide Edit

I noticed that there is a note on your new name thread in the forum about "Wasteland Survival Guide" already being taken. It's a wikia wiki, so maybe we should take that off of the poll?--The Gunny 02:01, November 28, 2011 (UTC)

Poll for new nameEdit

I have changed the format of the poll. I want to see who voted for what name. Jspoel Speech Jspoel 12:07, November 28, 2011 (UTC)

new name suggestions Edit

Hello, you do not know who I am, because I don't contribute to the wiki, but simply watch over it. Anyways, I have two new suggestions for new wiki names. The first that came to mind was NUKAPEDIA with Take the Leap beneath it. My second suggestion is Nuclear Wasteland Wiki with Walk the Wastes, With All Things Fallout Another idea that just came to me is The Brotherhood Archives with Largest Database of Old World and New World Knowledge under it.--{{SUBST:User:AFGHAN PSYCHO/Sig}} 00:31, November 29, 2011 (UTC)

New Name Idea Edit

Hey, I don't really go on the Vault too much except to see news. I do think that "Vault-Opedia" might be kind of neat. If you could add it to the poll, I'd greatly appreciate it. Thanks --Hate Mail :D 03:12, December 1, 2011 (UTC)

SpinelessEdit

So the perks Reinforced Spine and Spineless don't have Vault Boy images? MysteryStranger: Trust in the power of Infinity! 20:45, December 16, 2011 (UTC)

Then that note must be written! MysteryStranger: Trust in the power of Infinity! 20:53, December 16, 2011 (UTC)

Well, some pages have been here without an image, so maybe the contributors forgot about them. However, that is chainging, as you can see. MysteryStranger: Trust in the power of Infinity! 20:57, December 16, 2011 (UTC)

Name for this wikiEdit

Yes, there's not really a name that stands out. Looking at the votes, Fallout Universe, GECKipedia and Nukapedia would be up for a final vote, but I wouldn't be made happy with that. I feel we should stick to just Fallout Wiki and maybe in the future someone will have an ingenious suggestion. I'm also curious as to what Kingclyde has to say about it. Jspoel Speech Jspoel 00:30, December 17, 2011 (UTC)

Kingclyde's ok with a final poll. Already informed Agent c. Jspoel Speech Jspoel 23:17, December 18, 2011 (UTC)

Ok well I was going to make it but since Agent c is there's no point. ToCxHawK 23:24, December 18, 2011 (UTC)

Poll Edit

Its done. I've finally learned to use the preview function, so crossing my eyes and dotting the T's... no wait, that doesn't sound right.... Agent c 23:59, December 18, 2011 (UTC)

You might have to vote again, the poll is temporarily down. -Love, ΣΔ 00:08, December 19, 2011 (UTC)
Yeah, sorry, note to self - never trust Wikia help on how to make a poll - it looked so simple.... argh! Agent c 00:12, December 19, 2011 (UTC)

Just a note Edit

I just wanted to say thanks for all the work you've been doing in the community sector of this wiki. Happy Holidays! -Love, ΣΔ 01:56, December 22, 2011 (UTC)

SPECIALEdit

Yes, it should. You are telling be this because I did something wrong, right? If so, then tell me. MysteryStranger: Trust in the power of Infinity! 15:58, December 24, 2011 (UTC)

Armor statsEdit

I prefer it fully written out, because then you will have a direct link to the page and not be redirected. Jspoel Speech Jspoel 15:22, December 26, 2011 (UTC)

Thank you, my friend, for the confidence! Take care! -Love, ΣΔ 15:52, December 27, 2011 (UTC)

Edits Edit

Hey buddy, Your doing a great job getting those edits up! --HighFiveBearLeftHighFiveBearRight 17:21, December 28, 2011 (UTC)

188 trading postEdit

Don't change trading post links like you just did. Just leave it 188 Trading Post, it will redirect. Jspoel Speech Jspoel 19:15, December 29, 2011 (UTC)

Abbreviations Edit

Hope you don't mind me responding... I read your post to Js, for me it seems that some are abbreviated like "PE" whereas others "PER" or some even "Perception". Personally I'd change 'em all to the full name - "Intelligence" just for simplicity and clarification and consistency, but that's just me. I wouldn't worry about it too much; it's not that important. ~ΣΔ 00:24, January 2, 2012 (UTC)

BTW, thanks for your fix on the Mana page. I know nothing about Lionheart, or reading the article. ~ΣΔ 00:37, January 2, 2012 (UTC)
It's a (large) overview page, you can leave the abbreviations like they are now, short with 2 letters (haven't seen many with 3). Jspoel Speech Jspoel 00:42, January 2, 2012 (UTC)
On a specific perk page you can change it to fully written, like just now with Animal Friend. Jspoel Speech Jspoel 01:29, January 2, 2012 (UTC)

Overlinking Edit

You are over linking it doesn't need to be done. KiwiBird 13:30, January 2, 2012 (UTC)

PerksEdit

Cold you during your edits delete things like {{PAGENAME}} and rename it as the perk's title? MysteryStranger: Trust in the power of Infinity! 14:45, January 2, 2012 (UTC)

Yes I noticed you are making steady progress. Nice little improvements. Thanks for the work. Jspoel Speech Jspoel 17:08, January 2, 2012 (UTC)

--Jacknyc47 09:23, January 7, 2012 (UTC) hey can i ask a question

Moderator Edit

I want to apologise if I sounded arrogant or rude in any way at all. I am simply stating my opinion and I seriously hope you don't take anything the wrong way. No hard feelings, please. -ΣΔLet's talk! 23:11, January 10, 2012 (UTC)

Allright, I appreciate your response. Your personal life and obligations there are of course more important than this wiki. I think your and SigmaDelta's request have sparked a good discussion about refining it. For now, good luck on your request. Jspoel Speech Jspoel 17:02, January 16, 2012 (UTC)

Locations Edit

Try doing "______ is a [[Fallout: New Vegas locations|location]]..." instead of what you're doing now. It makes more sense than having "located" being linked. -ΣΔLet's talk! 17:07, January 16, 2012 (UTC)

Strike that, I don't think this is entirely necessary, seeing as there is a link above the infobox for FNV locations. I'd talk to Jspoel about it. -ΣΔLet's talk! 17:15, January 16, 2012 (UTC)
I especially don't like "[[Fallout: New Vegas locations|building]]. This is very inappropriate and misleading. It would be best to leave those lead sections in statu quo as I don't see any improvement out of this. The locations link is already in the infobox and navboxes. -ΣΔLet's talk! 17:51, January 16, 2012 (UTC)

Re: Edit

Listen, as you said, people are entitled to their opinions. I won't change my opinion because others do not like it, neither should anyone for that matter. I appreciate you posting to me about this. Here's my stance: I think you're a cool person also, and I think your usefulness in chat is undeniably high. You're constantly there and you're quite respectful too, from what I've seen. In addition, you have been making main namespace edits that are helpful. I simply want to see bigger contributions, not saying that your current ones are totally insignificant or anything. You are welcome to completely move to The Vault if that is your wish, I am in no way forcing you out, nor do I have any intention of doing so. Also, of course some of my edits may be insignificant, but I do have a lot and I do believe I have done a lot here. In addition, I don't appreciate being deemed less important because I am not an administrator or a Jspoel. Often times it's the simple matter of what fits better or what is preferred to improve this wiki. Speaking of which, that is the only reason why I am here: To improve this wiki. I've met some really awesome people here in the meantime, but my overall goal is to further improve everything here, and I will seek that other people would help to do the same, thus I might message you now or then about what can be done better, in my opinion. This is the same with anyone who messages you about things, or even those who message me. I have been corrected many times. When I apply for adminship, feel free to just slap a noIcon cross. All I care is for honesty. It's been good speaking to you. -ΣΔLet's talk! 18:41, January 16, 2012 (UTC)

I thought we were past the discussion stage about you qualifying for all moderator rights yes or no. Bringing it up again does not help in my opinion. Also your words on SD's page make me doubt your dedication to this wiki. Jspoel Speech Jspoel 19:08, January 16, 2012 (UTC)
If you're dedicated to this wiki, then why even bring up going to The Vault then? I really don't understand that combination. And I already explained my vote for your request. You've not done that much reverting, so you don't really need the rollback. Maybe that will change in the near future, but I had to look at your editing up until now. Chatmod is a pass, based on feedback from others. This is how I see it. Jspoel Speech Jspoel 21:30, January 16, 2012 (UTC)
I don't doubt that anyone can become a good editor. You just haven't reached that point in my opinion yet. Just keeping going. And I would appreciate less profanity. -ΣΔLet's talk! 00:34, January 17, 2012 (UTC)

My two cents. Edit

Having someone to look up to is perfectly fine... it helps build a foundation to work up from. However, you shouldn't let that person become a narrow minded horizon where their opinion lords over your emotions and point of view. He was only showing a little criticism with additional concerns over one of your comments. (I sort of saw it as a threat also, to be honest.) Criticism should never drag you down... it should help you grow and learn just what it takes to become the best. I gave you a neutral vote also; doesn't mean I don't think you are worthy of a chat mod position. (Just look at all of the positive votes towards you.) What I'm trying to say is, strive to become the best. Sometimes you just have to live with criticism and either learn from the experience or let it drag you back down to the bottom. Dragon Skål! 21:34, January 16, 2012 (UTC)

You are absolutely welcome. I just don't want someone with so much potential to become disillusioned with us and this wonderful wiki. Ah, you may call me Leon! Dragon Skål! 21:53, January 16, 2012 (UTC)
Since I'm now butting into other people's conversations (my apologies), I might as well add this: Anytime someone has doubted me, it always has given me the motivation to prove myself. If you feel you can do it, all you gotta do it take it by the horns and get it done. You'll have your new rights soon, go out there and make yourself proud. Always remember: lead, follow or get out the hell out of the way. Go be a leader, good luck. The Gunny 380px-USMC-E7 svg 22:04, January 16, 2012 (UTC)

Congratulations on becoming a chat moderator. MysteryStranger: Trust in the power of Infinity! 21:06, January 17, 2012 (UTC)

Yes! Congratulations on your recent promotion to chat mod. Use your powers well, my friend. :') Dragon Skål! 23:25, January 17, 2012 (UTC)

I appreciate the acknowledgement. Edit

Thanks a bunch. Before I knew it, many hours had passed. I'll look further at it tomorrow! It's always nice to find something to do. Hope you find something of your own anytime soon! ZappaBusinessMonkey 01:39, January 19, 2012 (UTC)

Admin Edit

Hey, thanks for voting on my request. However, I urge you to reconsider. I know I've been rash, inconsiderate, and even a little arrogant in the past, and especially towards you my behaviour had been ignorant, and just bad at points. But I want to apologise to you personally and I will improve on this aspect, no matter what happens. So once again would you please reconsider your vote? Every single vote means a lot. Thanks.

P.S. Congrats on being a moderator!

I'm sorryEdit

I'm sorry, I thought the vandal made those pages. When he/she vandalised the Phyton article, then I knew he replaced the content with "lol". Again, sorry. MysteryStranger: Trust in the power of Infinity! 22:22, January 28, 2012 (UTC)

Trolls Edit

Hey, just to let you know I posted to the two trolls' talk pages last night. It's just standard protocol - letting them know to contact either you or another chat mod or admin after 3 days, and informing them which rule they broke (they should know). Good job catching 'em! Take care. -ΣΔLet's talk! 21:53, January 29, 2012 (UTC)

Good catch there. I didn't really think that someone would have gone out of their way to create a second locations category. Thanks for pointing that out. Dragon Skål! 21:04, February 6, 2012 (UTC)

Chatmod Survey Edit

Hi Hawk,

Was wondering if you could take a look at this and if you could pop in the hours when you're kinda regular in chat. I'm doing a sort of survey in light of DB's mod application getting a bit of resistance due to the high number of mods - see if and when we need folks, that sort of thing. Agent c 01:39, February 16, 2012 (UTC)

FONV Gameplay bugs: faction armor unequipping Edit

Hi, you have reverted my change on the "unequip faction armor" bug. i extended the description because it just ran into this bug and it looked incomplete to me. It sounds like if you have this bug you have to re-equip any faction armor to fix it, which is not true. i wanted to point out that you have to re-equip a armor from the same faction that caused the bug to fix it. In my case i had used a Brotherhood power armor that was not unequipped correctly. the next NCR post attacked me for no visible reason (i didnt have any reputation at NCR). With a NCR armor they did not attack me, but as soon as i unequip it they did. i tried equipping a legion armor multiple times, but it helped nothing. i had to use player.additem to get a brotherhood armor and as soon as i equipped and unequipped it the NCR did not attack me anymore. also changing the reputation does not help with that bug, if you are appear to be dressed wrong to other factions, they will attack you even if you are "idolized" by them. i have tried it and can confirm that setreputation is not a fix for this. i have read some threads about people that got this bug and needed to load earlier saves or restart their game, a good description on that fix could help.

RE:Plunkett Edit

You verified for pc (and according to the picture), I verified on ps3 (that's what I play on), and for this type of bug, logically it would also be for Xbox360. Of course, I don't actually have proof of that, so you are welcome to test that out (or find someone who can). It is very unlikely that it will only occur on ps3 and pc, but not xbox360. -ΣΔLet's talk! 02:20, March 7, 2012 (UTC)

Ultimately, you're correct. I shouldn't have verified for xbox360 as well. -ΣΔLet's talk! 02:28, March 7, 2012 (UTC)

Achievement Boosting Edit

I hate to do this, but a user has brought it to my attention that you might be boosting for VB badges. After we investigated into the matter, we found quite a few VB pages where you have added some questionable content, even one where you made 10 different edits within half an hour that had to be reverted by one of our Admins. And another one here and here where you added a link just to remove it soon after. Here are the pages that are working against you at the moment: [1][2][3][4] You can throw up a forum to discuss the reasons for these edits, but right now it looks like you might be boosting. I await your response on this matter, and I hope you can put our minds at ease. Dragon Skål! 01:57, March 11, 2012 (UTC)

I'm sorry, but that's not a good reason. Most of the edits in question are small, and of course there's the example I listed above where you added a link - just a link- and then removed it not even minutes later. Dragon Skål! 02:20, March 11, 2012 (UTC)

I've been called in to place a verdict on this, and I find some of your edits questionable, but in no way warranting a ban. Your edits on the Spineless and Hex pages were a tad... awkward, haphazard and meaningless, and I advise against that in the future, but the other pages look fine, really. I've seen similar work at the hands of Jspoelstra and seen no one complain, and I see no problem with it now. Just try to be a bit more focussed in your future edits, k, Eric? Hugs MadeMan2 "Say 'ello to my little friend!"

Nemerian Edit

Please don't make assumptions about me. I have never "hated" anybody here, and I never will. The reason I banned Nemerian is because for months now, he has been getting on every day just to make around 1-3 extremely minor edits that are usually reverted or fixed by other users shortly after being made. Even Clyde agreed with me that he might need a ban, just not a ban classified as achievement boosting. (Which I didn't ban him over if you read my ban-logs.) I wanted to give him a chance to take the warnings on his talk-page seriously, but his edits have not improved even in the slightest since then. The last straw was that most recent edit from him where he unnecessarily changed wording around and created false information and broken sentences. I stand by my ban. Dragon Skål! 05:37, March 12, 2012 (UTC)

What's Wrong With Chat? Edit

Yo Hawk, for some reason, chat crashed for me last night. Now whenever I join, none of your names come up, and the chat is just an empty box where I can type things. And when I do, it just skips a line when I hit 'Enter'. And whenever I go over one of your usernames in the box where it says "Join The Chat", your usernames are stretched out. Do you know what's wrong? D: RamboRob196 15:41, March 12, 2012 (UTC)RamboRob196

Tech demoEdit

What you want with the tech demo then? I've been never been able to go farther than the opening location and the vault. And the console command option (~) doesn't work properly. Only can activate it during the intro and when I then use it to get to a map, I end up in the starting location. Once in the demo it doesn't work anymore. You know more (like accessing the Mesa Verde map in-game?) Jspoel Speech Jspoel 17:22, March 12, 2012 (UTC)

I took a good look at the location image on the Mesa Verde page, and there you can clearly see the pit (Kiva) in the middle. Same thing with the cave. Jspoel Speech Jspoel 17:35, March 12, 2012 (UTC)

Am I doing something wrong?Edit

Hi there! I'm probably missing some basic rule, but the last three or four times I tried to write here, my contributions were deleted, and I've noticed you're the one who did the last one. Is there something I should do in order to make my contributions survive for at least five minutes? Thank you in advance.

Hey, I don't know how it said i reverted your edit because I didn't touch it. With your other edits the problem was their notability. On this wiki we have standards with whats notable and what's not. Normal items found commonly aren't notable. Other than that you are doing just fine. Can I suggest making an account? :) ToCxHawK 17:39, April 22, 2012 (UTC)
Oh, I see... I tried to use other "Notable Loot" sections as a model, but maybe I found somewhat rare something actually not that strange. I was starting to get mad, because I'm just trying to help... Contributions literally flew away, you know. :P The last one I mentioned is Paperweight, and I thought it was you who deleted it because your name appeared just a minute after me in "Recent Wiki Activity", in Paperweight. What I wrote reappeared soon after in the article. I'll consider the account in a recent future, though. ;) 81.172.89.122 18:19, April 22, 2012 (UTC)Álvaro
Ah I see now, well I reverted my edit so your edit appears. Don't know how long it will last though seeing as I'm not sure if that's notable. Your edit on the Jacobstown page about the Magazines was fine, as magazines are notable. Yes, please consider it would make things a whole lot easier ;) ToCxHawK 18:24, April 22, 2012 (UTC)

re: ringo Edit

how is making note of the fact that there is a limit to how much you can wager against ringo, and win, before your game will freeze up on you, causing you to lose any unsaved data, considered 'strategy'? it's useful information. is it the part where i made note of the exploit that ringo will continue to bet the same amount, once he reaches a certain point, that is considered strategy? how can i improve my editing technique when my edits are deleted and then reasoned with very general reprimands? what are you guys defining as strategy? ~~~kev~~~

are bug sections still allowed on pages like these or are all bugs supposed to be listed on the bugs page instead? it's not just a freezing issue, the bug is more than that because there is a point just before the freezing point where ringo will not decrease his bid anymore when he loses. ~~~kev~~~
on the page you mentioned there is a section that states; for non-player character-specific bugs, please see the respective non-player character article page. the edit i have been trying to make (without including strategy) details a bug that is specific to the NPC Ringo. there are also similar bugs correlated to other 'no game limit' NPCs who play caravan (such as Dale Barton), but their bet limits, before the freeze will occur, and where they will continue to bet the same amount after they've lost, appear to be different. when i first started researching this, i had ringo almost completely figured out, and someone else had made edits concerning dale's bug limits. back then, user:Gothemasticator had invited me to work on this topic. i would like to follow through with my research and edits on this subject, but all these reverts, conflicting information, and subjective guidelines are making it hard for me to do so. so, what is the solution? where does this bug information actually belong, and can i even make the edits without someone immediately deleting them instead of helping me modify them to be suitable to the guidelines? ~~~kev~~~

re: bugs Edit

it is on that page, but only because i put it there last night. so i guess i will go ahead and move it then. thanks! ~~~kev~~~

  • i made the edit to ringo's article page adding a bugs section. i did my best to detail the bugs, while omitting anything that could be construed as strategy. please let me know if any further modification is necessary. cheers! ~~~kev~~~

People are boredEdit

I remember that comment, it was one I posted on one of Agent c's blogs I think. I know it's at least partly responsible for it, because I've been around since New Vegas came out, so I know how it was between let's say November 2010 - October 2011. And I don't remember the word 'drama' mentioned even once in that timespan. Only thing that springs to mind is Tag's reconfirmation request. Otherwise it was all editing and people getting along in general. And there is also some negative aftermath from the split with key people leaving, like Ausir and Porter21. A lot of people need to find their new role in the wiki and get accustomed to it, like Clyde, me and the admins. So now we're without a game and people are bored. Editing isn't that interesting anymore, it's mostly perfecting stuff or some work on older games which only a handful of people want to do. Things like the Nuclear Moose and the polls help but looks like it's not enough. It will be a pretty long wait till the next Fallout, but we'll get by I think.

Chat rulesEdit

If you were to look closer, I did not change any rule; I simply clarified it. Dolan-speak is a deliberate distortion of the English language - just as leet speak - and at that, it's a distortion that's becoming increasingly prominent. So, instead of misunderstandings because of the rules not stating this common phenomena as an example, I decided to clarify the rules; especially since the "leet" speak is disappearing. Also, patronising me is a silly move. Please don't. Hugs MadeMan2 "Say 'ello to my little friend!"

I'm with Scarface on that. The occassional one-off isn't too annoying, but if you start repeatedly using Moronspeak, err, Dolanspeak, then you are being obnoxious and annoying to other users. As such, it falls under the leetspeek rule. Leetspeek is interpreted here sensu largo, including all other deliberate distortions of English language, like Dolanspeak and Ghetto slang.

Hey Hawk. Some of your edits have been reverted due to them being examples of improper capitalisation. A skill is capitalised only when it is used, contextually, as a skill in the sentence.

ADB Edit

Hello, HawK. This is a message that I will be circulating through Nukapedia's Sysops. A while back I had created a more suitable version of the Administrators' Discussion Board as an attempt to help regulate important matters that require immediate attention from the veteran users around Nukapedia. With Fallout 4 on the horizon, I would like to begin making this feature more widely embraced, so that we all are more comfortable and familiar with using it for when the time comes around that we'll need to look towards it the most. What I would like to see is for an example to be set for where certain matters should be discussed within our community, as well as creating an environment where users will know that their issues will be addressed in a timely and fair manner. What does this mean, exactly?

  • Appropriate topics should be addressed within the ADB instead of the normal fora space. Not only is the ADB a general area to condense important topics, but it is also always kept at the top for easy access. (As well as having a place within the Community Messages.)
  • All Administrators, Moderators, Patrollers, and Bureaucrats should make it a priority to check through the ADB at least once every few days or so. This is the duty of mantling the extra tools, after all, and is not too much to ask for.
  • The ADB should make an appearance within new user's welcome message.
  • If a topic within the fora has been made that is of significant importance and affects the wiki as a whole, these topics should be moved into the ADB.
    • It is my hope that these requirements will help our community become more familiar with where they should go to have their grievances and ideas properly heard. Right now, the ADB has been largely ignored because the Sysops have also largely ignored it, and this is unacceptable at times when important matters such as this one are mostly by-passed except for a couple of people. With the chaos that is soon to come with the new title(s), all I am asking is for a bit of responsibility in making sure that we all recognize issues and ideas as they come up, and making sure that we do our parts in seeing them through. Thank you for reading, and I would greatly appreciate some feed-back. Once a general consensus has been reached, possible changes will be taken care of.

2nd Person PerspectiveEdit

Hello Hawk. I just wanted to thank you for working on removing the second person perspective from articles. One thing though, 'the player' is also a second person variation and shouldn't be used in the articles either. In addition, replacing the word 'you' with 'the Courier' is often clunky in most cases. My advice would be to try and re-write sentences without using any perspective at all; 1st (obviously), 2nd, or 3rd. I will try and clean up an article to show you an example of what I mean later, but in the meantime you can look at this revision: http://fallout.wikia.com/index.php?title=Abandoned_Brotherhood_of_Steel_bunker&diff=1874551&oldid=1828682. Sometimes the use of 'the Courier' can't be avoided, but for the most part it can be removed as well. Let me know if you have any questions. FollowersApocalypseLogoōrdō āb chao 23:55, April 29, 2013 (UTC)

'The player' implies the person sitting in front of the screen, as does 'you' or 'we' (although the latter is first person). We are trying to write from 3rd person, which is the perspective of the character within the game. As such, 'the player character' would be acceptable, as it's referring to the character in the game and not to a person playing it. FollowersApocalypseLogoōrdō āb chao 00:18, April 30, 2013 (UTC)
