==Something I Noticed==

I see that when new users come in - I did this too - one of the first things they start to do is edit out the silly captions and some of the humor from the Wiki. This is mostly stemming from the transition from Wikipedia and other Wikis to Teletraan-1, since most others have strict no-humor. Is there a way to put up some sort of banner in the "Help Contents" guide, that explains, look, we're silly here sometimes?

And, um, that guy below is just funny as hell. [[User:Mirai Gen|Mirai Gen]] 19:36, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

==Things to say to you==
[[Image:Ttoc.GIF|right|thumb|We approve this message.]]

Just some thing I've been wanting to say to David...

First off, you're a monumental asshole. You have an ego the size of a small planet and it's irritating watching you act like an important SOB when you're basically just a nobody.

Second, your webcomics aren't funny. They're boring tripe that makes Penny Arcade look good(and believe me, Penny Arcade is garbage). Cyanide and Happiness is a funny webcomic, yours is not. Your "jokes" are painful, about like watching Michael Richards yell the n-word as a routine. You don't draw a comic, you draw an opinionated blog. I'm not sure which name suits your crap better, "ShitPacked" or "ShortDicked".

Your liberalism and your love of Indiana get on my nerves. You jab at Mallard Filmore? Yeah, one shitty comic making fun of another shitty comic. Or are you just pissed that his gets in newspapers while you're JUST a webcomic? As to Indiana, I live here, and if it were up to me, the state would be walled off and none of the freaks living there allowed to interact with the rest of the planet. The state is about 3 decades behind the times. But something tells me even you know this otherwise you'd still live here. I sure as hell do not live here by choice and as soon as I can, I'm moving far away from this joke of a state.

And your brand loyalty is typical fandom crap. You have Aaron Archer's rod so far down your throat it's unreal. And Aryan fucktard Michael Bay's rod has apparently joined it. I'd say soemthing abotu Don Murphy but he was born without one. Actually, I can say something- he's Kevin "unfunny asshole" Smith with more body fat. Hasbro didn't give the film to a competent director, just a cheap one. And neither Speilberg or ILM have done anything useful in years. Give WETA, or even Tom Savini a chance and we wouldn't be getting Bionicle bots. You're afraid to not like a Hasbro product. No wonder they don't have to go out of the way to please the "fans"- you'll accept it no matter what. But hey, you personally have been sucking off incompetent British bonehead Simon Furman and his shitty stories for years. There are no gods in Transformers. Unicron was built by a monkey, little man. Furman is dog shit.

And go figure this TF wiki is a joke full of misinformation, insults or outright lies- you're a mod here. You're never right. You're more of an incorrect pompous jerkoff than Defunct is. Right, ban me from editing, as if it would somehow matter, any info you don't agree with is pulled. You only have friends because people feel sorry for you. Me, I have no need. People are a commodity to be used and their wants only get in the way of what I'm out for. Use them and drop them.

Who am I? Go look who added a note about you on Encyclopedia Dramatica's Allspark page if you're not too lazy. As well as past AS, Kalidor, FIRRIB and Hooks entries(the hooks entry especially true). Oh, and just info on white people in general and that idiotic Nintendo Wii. I'm not making it that easy for you.

== I thought it was vandalism ==

Just that I read the article and thought it was vandalism from the way it was written. So I accidently reverted it to the old one, which had more of something that seemed like vanderism. Then I realize I am not in wikipeida, but in Transformers wiki. I clicked on a link from Tformers.com and since the two sites look so damn similar, yeah......That explains the humor and why I had to make an account here. Sorry, but I am wishy washy at the moment since I have a term paper due soon and haven't gotten any sleep. Sorry. LOL--[[User:Doomzaber|Doomzaber]] 03:14, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

== Just kind of curious ==

Is there a limit to your knowledge of Transformers lore, or is it as infinite as the cosmos?

Because damn, do you know a lot.

==You are now an Admin==

Hello ItsWalky, I've made you and Suki Brits admins for this wiki. Thanks for offering to help out! Let me know if there is anything you need help with or can't do. Please see [[Wikicities:Help:Administrators' how-to guide]] for the basics, and let me know if you want more admins added - you two will be fine for now, but more may be needed in time. Thanks again -- [[User:Sannse|sannse]] [[User talk:Sannse|(talk)]] 12:55, 15 March 2006 (UTC)

...RUN, HE'S GONE MAD WITH POWER!

I know Bodycount was being antagonistic about his changes (not just on the Nemesis Prime entry), but I think blocking him for 2 weeks may have been excessive. We should try to settle editorial conflicts through compromise, like they do at Wikipedia, by rewriting the article to express both points of view and the reasoning behind those views. On the other hand, I
have no idea who he is, aside from a vague feeling that he's an Allsparker. You may be more familiar with his habits than I. Maybe he's likely to just be disruptive. But from what I have seen just here at this site, I think the block was premature. --[[User:Steve-o|Steve-o]] 17:42, 13 April 2006 (UTC)

MAD WITH POWER!

I Knew BC at Tfans, he was a bit antaganistic to the rabid GeeWuners, but he's a great kitbasher. [[User:X-BoB58|X-BoB58]] 05:01, 14 April 2006 (UTC)

Bodycount's been banned repeatedly from the Allspark, and from several other boards, as well. He's a textbook troll, and we're better off without him. - [[User:RolonBolon|RolonBolon]] 05:05, 14 April 2006 (UTC)

== There's an issue with the "Recent Changes" page ==

Up at the top of the "recent changes" page where it says "below are the last X chaned in the last Y days as of DATE", for some reason the "DATE" says "$3". --[[User:FortMax|FortMax]] 14:51, 17 June 2006 (UTC)

== Episode Template Comments ==

Hi ItsWalky. Thanks loads for your feedback. Sorry about the date thing. As for the loss of data between the two templates, reordering each of the groups for order of appearance shouldn't be too difficult, just means watching the episode carefully again (unfortunately, when I did the lists of characters for my own TF site, I didn't consider having them in order of appearance and thus alphabetized them right away). With regards to the difference between major and minor characters, I'm not sure I would quite know where to draw the line on who's what in every TF episode. To me, it would seem to depend if the character was regular, is he major or minor for the whole series, season, or just the episode, or if the character was a guest, I could see it likely being just the episode. Perhaps if I knew what guidline Teletraan-1 was using to determine Major/Minor status, I could think of a way to incorporate it into my template. Thanks again for your feedback. [[User:Telet093|Telet093]] 00:35, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

Hello again. Just to let you know I've incorporated order of appearance into my test template if you wanted to check it out: [[User:Telet093/The Master Builder]]. [[User:Telet093|Telet093]] 23:50, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
==Cartoon==
Hi - sorry for the home page edit, I was trying to figure out if I added the word "cartoon" at the top of the page, would google figure out that your site is not about power control and liquid transformers :-) [http://wikia.com/wiki/User:Gil Gil]
:Google's not gonna figger it out, no, not until they distinguish between the two in their databases. Believe me, every TF site with google ads has the same problem. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 06:01, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

== A Question on Mini-Con Entries ==
As I'm hitting the "random page" button, I seem to come up with a Mini-Con page for this or that Mini-Con most of the time. Is there any reason every Mini-Con has its own page? Could they be consolidated on to their respective team pages? This may be a community issue, but I figured an editor the best place to start.--[[User:MCRG|MCRG]] 08:43, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
: All the ones in Armada and Cybertron, at least, have their own bios and personalities, so that should be enough for a page. I think, in principle, every toyed character should have its own page, whether it be a Nebulan, Mini-Con, Deployer, or what have you. I tend to only use the "Related characters" subsection for fiction-only humans and the like. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 15:24, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

==Question Time Again==
Would it be possible to consolidate the pages such as [[quartex]] and [[cycle]] and whatever else is floating about into just a single "Cybertronian Units of Time" page of some sort? I had no idea a "quartex" existed until I randomly hit the [[Conductors]] page, for instance, but having them all in one place might be helpful, or possibly to rename the page into "Measurements of time" and split off [[Megamile]]?--[[User:MCRG|MCRG]] 05:59, 28 August 2006 (UTC)
: I don't see why we can't have both. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 03:17, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

== Alot of images seem to be missing ==

many of the images have dissipered, such as the ones on [[neon]]. the image files themselves cive a "can't find on server" error. any idea WTF is up? --[[User:FortMax|FortMax]] 16:42, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
:Probably just a temporary glitch. Wikia has a lot of them. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 16:46, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

==Sources==
How does one go about making reference to a patent and a catalog in a footnote on here?--[[User:MCRG|MCRG]] 18:20, 6 September 2006 (UTC)
: Replacing -s with HTML arrow-thingies:
::-ref-[[More Than Meets the Eye, Part 1]]-/ref-
::And then create a "Footnotes" subheading at the bottom of the page, under which you type:
::-references/-
::That will automatically create a footnote there.

:I think you need to refresh the page. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 22:21, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

==Sorry?==
Dude, the Seeker cateogry expressely said it was for G1 characters, and it wasn't until now that you decided that the Armada guys counted. Maximals was in Beast Era category, so I just made it more specific. Same for Vehicons. I'm sorry for pissing you off, but you're effectively blaming me for not being psychic. [[User:Interrobang|Interrobang]] 21:33, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

== Images fitting ==

I have a wide screen resolution (1280x800), and often times images that are on the same side will start to stack up if there aren't enough lines of text between them, kind of like this:

:img | _______
_______| | img

That's what was happening with the Airazor pics. Would it be better to add in come blank lines? --[[User:FortMax|FortMax]] 15:18, 21 October 2006 (UTC)
: Well, in Airazor's case, we just had to fill in more summary. She was missing some key episodes, which filled in more text between the two images. On other pages, I dunno, it's a problem with the system, which we'll have to work out, 'cuz I think all images are gonna hafta be lefted if there's storylinks over there. Otherwise it's a mess. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 15:27, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

::Saw the scans. That's awesome! It's really too bad it never got made. And y'know, I think a Go-Bots cover done in the "DW house style" could actually look super-cools.

==Bureaucrat==
Hi David. Since the original founder of this wiki has been inactive since June 2005, I've made you a bureaucrat here in case there are any trusted community members who need to be made into admins. See [[Wikia:Help:User access levels]] for help with this. I liked your recent [http://www.shortpacked.com/d/20070101.html comic] mentioning the wiki.

== About the delete of the IDW megatron Pic ==

The image illustrate megatron in his IDW form (as well as his alt mode), and it as been (at least) released on the official site. Isn't it all an image need to be. The text here, isn't the important part and is still readable anyway. Here just to prove it's not "stolen" or anything: http://www.idwpublishing.com/newreleases.shtml --[[User:GUIGUI|GUIGUI]] 14:12, 23 January 2007 (UTC)
: I know it's not stolen. We can probably manage to wait one more day until the actual issue comes out and we can have something of useable size to scan. The image, at the size it was, was useless. (Also, we should avoid having full pages up, unless absolutely necessary. Otherwise it's not exactly fair use.) --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 14:16, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

== And the Lord said "DUDE". And it was groovy. ==

For the record, and I know this counts for almost nothing, Willis is the reason I'm here. Yeah, I love wikis, I love Transformers, and I (rather inexplicably) adore the Jumpstarters, but I wouldn't know about Teletraan 1 if not for the blog on Shortpacked!.

== disambuig question ==

When a character shares a name with an episode, do both pages get a series tag, or just the episode? --[[User:FortMax|FortMax]] 17:41, 11 February 2007 (UTC)

Are we talking about Chase? He's the only one that wouldn't get a (G1) otherwise, that I can think of... I would tentatively say that having the TF be [[Chase]] and the episode be [[Chase (Armada episode)]] would be fine. Of course, we might need a disambig page to encompass [[Chip Chase]], I dunno. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 18:01, 11 February 2007 (UTC)

== CSS change ==

Hey Walky, I'm requesting a change to the sitewide CSS that you can see at [[MediaWiki_talk:Monobook.css]]

It's Wikipedia's pretty able classes. Wikia (buizarely) comes with ''no'' table classes. We dont' use tables much here, but should we want to, we'd want them to look like this. (And this is the class all the wikipedia-how-to-create-a-table tutorials tell you to use.) The code is unaltered from Wikipedia, so it won't conflict with anything.

Appreciate it if you could port it over for me.-[[User:Derik|Derik]] 01:31, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
: Where do I put it? --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 00:07, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
::Oh, sorry, I forgot you hadn't done this before.
::Please append the requested change from the CSS discussion area [[MediaWiki_talk:Monobook.css]] to the end of the actual CSS file [[MediaWiki:Monobook.css]], which you can edit but I cannot.

== Scale question ==
Hi there, this is PacifistPrime, the originator of the new [[Scale]] article. Thanks very much for your contributions. Just one question though; you've changed some of the estimated "real world" heights for characters like Prime and Bumblebee, stating that they "have been calculated". I don't mean to disagree with you ''per se'' (although I must admit your figures do instinctively strike me as unlikely, but that's just my guestimate), but I was wondering if you could please source those figures. Not so much in the article itself (believe me, I'm very sick of the bluenoses over at Wikipedia always being on peoples' case about that), but rather just for my own personal interest. I've actually wanted for some time now to set up a project that would use the toys and specs for the real vehicles to calculate how big most of the pre-Movie G1s would be. But if someone has already done this, I'd love to know their results, and I'd be particularly interested in their method. Can you give me some directions? Please respond in my own talk page, if you don't mind. Hope to hear from you, [[User:PacifistPrime|PacifistPrime]].
:[http://groups.google.com/group/alt.toys.transformers/msg/6db411e03e75a342?dmode=source LV once figured it out using real vehicle lengths and stuff.]
:Also, a trend in the article seems to be overunderestimating the size of the Transformers in the cartoon, for example, saying that Optimus Prime would "only" be 20 feet tall, versus the giant size you believe he is. We've got lots of model sheets available to us that show that Optimus Prime was drawn to be 15-ish feet, or 3 Spikes tall. Now, the comic tended to draw the Transformers much, much larger than that, but in the cartoon, they were kinda dinky, though that's of course not incredibly consistent. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 15:39, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

== ''The Enemy Within Part 2'' ==

I'm wanting to start writing an article for ''The Enemy Within'', but there is one slight problem. My scans of the issue (saved from Seibertron and TCA before the comic scans were taken down) are missing pages 9 and 10 (the last two color pages) from part 2, and from what I've been able to dig up from the Wayback Machine, the scans used on the various sites never had those two pages (or a few from ''The Man Of Iron'' UK printing, and page 8 from UK #6).

== Just Sayin' Hi ==

Ok, this is embarassing.

I've been on the TFWiki a while now, and on a lot of discussion pages I've posted on, you're the first or second person to answer a question or comment on my post.

I also read Shortpacked and didn't know you were... well, you.

It was seemingly at random I clicked on your link to see your page and, lo and behold, you're the reason for so much joy and pain, the grand well of Transformers knowledge, the de facto LEGENDARY user who knows how many punctuation marks are in the title of seemingly random comics... from EUROPE.

I simply want to say that it's an honor for me to be able to collaborate with you on this project. Transformers has always been a big part of my childhood, and now my adulthood. I'm starting up the UniCronicles (see my page for more details) and yours, along with several other webcomics I read, have inspired me. I thank you for Shortpacked, your contribution to Teletraan I, and, of course, for making fun of that ditzy purple skank. I mean, am I the only one who noticed she was like 3 million years the senior of most of the ''Cybertron'' cast? Granny's got her freak on.

Anyway, keep making teh funniez. I'll keep reading them. [[User:King Starscream|King Starscream]] 04:55, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

== Please remove (or at least justify) block ==
Um,
Excuse me, but... what the heck? (Block ID #49)

Why on earth have you blocked me? VANDALISM? Are you kidding?!?

Is this about the two snarky little comments spilled over from the Movie-G1-IDW categorisation micro-debate? i.e., the ones that were already deleated from the Movie pages well over a week ago and are thus no longer an issue at all? Have you seriously blocked me over that? Good lord...

Okay, maybe those TWO very SMALL comments were SLIGHTLY out of order, but to call it
vandalism...! This isn't Wikipedia, mate. If you wanna start policing sarcastic
comments and POV material then you've got a loooong task ahead of you on this
site, don't you think? Blocking me for those comments hardly seems rational.

That you wanted to delete them? Fine. But to BLOCK me for it? C'mon; get real.

I am a comparatively new user, but one in good standing who has contributed several articles and is polite in all discussions at every turn, far more so than some other users here that I've observed. I've noticed that on more than one occasion you have had somewhat grumpy reactions to things I have to say, so I'm more than a little suspicious that this block isn't some kind of vindictive action on your part, as you seemingly have some kind of problem with me, although I can't imagine on what basis.

This block is clearly absurd, and not at all in the spirit of fun and good
humour I've come to love about this site. I don't see how you can reasonably justify this action, and I am also complaining about this to your fellow adminstrator.

Yours indignantly, [[User:PacifistPrime|PacifistPrime]].
: For your information, I banned you right BEFORE I deleted your vandalism. It wasn't a week-later thing, no. And, yes, if you're going to end a long Talk Page discussion in which you were overwhelmingly outvoted by editing '''the articles themselves''' with retaliatory comments, then, yes, that's vandalism. Certainly, if that's going to be the nature of your contributions here, then you don't belong. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 01:29, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

::With all due respect this is a massive overraction.

Don't take my word for it: please look at my history of contribution and discussion with other users. I've always been scrupulously polite and have never gotten into an edit war with anyone.

::So, Okay, yes, if you really want me to say it: I DID A BAD THING. I'm sorry. Don't you guys have some kind of strike system? To permanently ban me over this small piece of sarcasm really seems excessive, don't you think?

==BANNED==

What the hell did I do to warrant a ban, exactly? As far as I'm aware, I don't even think I broke any rules, and if I did, an official warning would be appropriate. I received no such warning. I was not here for trolling and you know that - you use that bullshit excuse to get people to ignore arguments you can't handle. But you, personally, who made this decision, know I'm not a troll.

This is fucking low. I had little enough respect for you down to your ranting against the fanbase, Willis, but this is a whole new level of buggery. If you're going to use your comic to rant against and discredit people you don't like, the least you can do is suck it up when people rant at you back, and not act like a control-freak child.

I really don't think you're aware of your own actions anymore.
*Do the words [[Wikipedia:WP:NPA|no personal attacks]] mean anything to you? -- [[User:SFH|SFH]] 00:18, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
:: Do the words "warning before ban" mean anything to you? Rulemongering doesn't justify a decision anyway, since Walky is one of the people making the rules. There were plenty of personal attacks leveled at me, but I did not report them officially.

::I really find it hard to believe that you think it's completely on a rational level of discourse to claim that the comic strip I draw is about child pornography. If I'm not mistaken about your identity, you've been banned from almost every single Transformers web board you've had an acquaintance with, and I'm only doing this place a favor by getting rid of you. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 00:22, 4 August 2007 (UTC)

::: That's not an excuse. I will openly admit I HAVE been banned from several forums, but only because I repeatedly opposed the staff on each and every one of them; and with good cause, they all have roughly the same problem. People bully others either into liking the movie or to agree with the kind of views you promote - and since nobody can directly attack or discredit anyone, these people(and you are) are left to their methods.
::: For your current decision to be validated, the admins of those boards, boards which are influenced in turn by your anti-fan attitude, would have to be near 100% correct in their decisions, and those decisions would have to occur within a context that would map exactly onto here. Any rational moderator does not base their decisions so much off performance on other boards, especially when it's not even a messageboard they're operating. Two different media. I have openly said I despise all active Transformers boards for their level of authoritarianism, yet level of tolerance towards the pushing of certain viewpoints.

::: Not to mention that you're still operating under the fallacy of Appeal to Majority - that alone means I shouldn't really even have to counter you.

::: And don't even use the "CHILD PORNOGRAPHY" thing as an excuse. Again, any rational moderator would warn several times before a ban, I personally reversed that edit even though it was obviously intended to be a joke as anyone reading this knows what pile'o'bile already is. You have no justification for what you did, but your ego is too big to realise you can actually do wrong with your power. You'll never admit it, but I wouldn't be surprised if some part of you is pissed that I defeated some of your ramblings, whether they were directly written by you or encouraged by you, it's still the kind of guff you normally blew, and I managed to defeat it. You, and the mods of the big sites will always have your ban buttons - but you will NEVER be able to justify your actions to me. That's how I know that I'm in the right, at least in situations like this - solidly backed justification is almost always absent.
:::: Personal attacks + deleting comments in response to you = banno --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 00:36, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
:::: P.S. Sign your posts. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 00:36, 4 August 2007 (UTC)

::::: I have never intentionally deleted comments in response to me. I just moved one recently as it was in the middle of a paragraph of text. Not to mention that happened after you banned my original IP. Personal attacks alone are not grounds enough for a ban, especially when you're doing an awful, awful lot to be mercilessly torn into.
Need I point out that once again, you are unable to defend yourself properly? When does the "You're insane?" come? Ganging up of all your little friends since a majority always means you're right?
Do you even realise what a fascist shithead you sound like? Just because you're an admin of a place doesn't give you a free pass to be a dick with it. There's a difference between what you can do and what you should do that you don't seem to have learned yet.

--I'm deeply sorry

==Something I Noticed==

I see that when new users come in - I did this too - one of the first things they start to do is edit out the silly captions and some of the humor from the Wiki. This is mostly stemming from the transition from Wikipedia and other Wikis to Teletraan-1, since most others have strict no-humor. Is there a way to put up some sort of banner in the "Help Contents" guide, that explains, look, we're silly here sometimes?

And, um, that guy below is just funny as hell. [[User:Mirai Gen|Mirai Gen]] 19:36, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

==Things to say to you==
[[Image:Ttoc.GIF|right|thumb|We approve this message.]]

Just some thing I've been wanting to say to David...

First off, you're a monumental asshole. You have an ego the size of a small planet and it's irritating watching you act like an important SOB when you're basically just a nobody.

Second, your webcomics aren't funny. They're boring tripe that makes Penny Arcade look good(and believe me, Penny Arcade is garbage). Cyanide and Happiness is a funny webcomic, yours is not. Your "jokes" are painful, about like watching Michael Richards yell the n-word as a routine. You don't draw a comic, you draw an opinionated blog. I'm not sure which name suits your crap better, "ShitPacked" or "ShortDicked".

Your liberalism and your love of Indiana get on my nerves. You jab at Mallard Filmore? Yeah, one shitty comic making fun of another shitty comic. Or are you just pissed that his gets in newspapers while you're JUST a webcomic? As to Indiana, I live here, and if it were up to me, the state would be walled off and none of the freaks living there allowed to interact with the rest of the planet. The state is about 3 decades behind the times. But something tells me even you know this otherwise you'd still live here. I sure as hell do not live here by choice and as soon as I can, I'm moving far away from this joke of a state.

And your brand loyalty is typical fandom crap. You have Aaron Archer's rod so far down your throat it's unreal. And Aryan fucktard Michael Bay's rod has apparently joined it. I'd say soemthing abotu Don Murphy but he was born without one. Actually, I can say something- he's Kevin "unfunny asshole" Smith with more body fat. Hasbro didn't give the film to a competent director, just a cheap one. And neither Speilberg or ILM have done anything useful in years. Give WETA, or even Tom Savini a chance and we wouldn't be getting Bionicle bots. You're afraid to not like a Hasbro product. No wonder they don't have to go out of the way to please the "fans"- you'll accept it no matter what. But hey, you personally have been sucking off incompetent British bonehead Simon Furman and his shitty stories for years. There are no gods in Transformers. Unicron was built by a monkey, little man. Furman is dog shit.

And go figure this TF wiki is a joke full of misinformation, insults or outright lies- you're a mod here. You're never right. You're more of an incorrect pompous jerkoff than Defunct is. Right, ban me from editing, as if it would somehow matter, any info you don't agree with is pulled. You only have friends because people feel sorry for you. Me, I have no need. People are a commodity to be used and their wants only get in the way of what I'm out for. Use them and drop them.

Who am I? Go look who added a note about you on Encyclopedia Dramatica's Allspark page if you're not too lazy. As well as past AS, Kalidor, FIRRIB and Hooks entries(the hooks entry especially true). Oh, and just info on white people in general and that idiotic Nintendo Wii. I'm not making it that easy for you.

Just that I read the article and thought it was vandalism from the way it was written. So I accidently reverted it to the old one, which had more of something that seemed like vanderism. Then I realize I am not in wikipeida, but in Transformers wiki. I clicked on a link from Tformers.com and since the two sites look so damn similar, yeah......That explains the humor and why I had to make an account here.

I know Bodycount was being antagonistic about his changes (not just on the Nemesis Prime entry), but I think blocking him for 2 weeks may have been excessive. We should try to settle editorial conflicts through compromise, like they do at Wikipedia, by rewriting the article to express both points of view and the reasoning behind those views. On the other hand, I
have no idea who he is, aside from a vague feeling that he's an Allsparker. You may be more familiar with his habits than I. Maybe he's likely to just be disruptive.

== Episode Template Comments ==

Hi ItsWalky. Thanks loads for your feedback. Sorry about the date thing. As for the loss of data between the two templates, reordering each of the groups for order of appearance shouldn't be too difficult, just means watching the episode carefully again (unfortunately, when I did the lists of characters for my own TF site, I didn't consider having them in order of appearance and thus alphabetized them right away). With regards to the difference between major and minor characters, I'm not sure I would quite know where to draw the line on who's what in every TF episode. To me, it would seem to depend if the character was regular, is he major or minor for the whole series, season, or just the episode, or if the character was a guest, I could see it likely being just the episode. Perhaps if I knew what guidline Teletraan-1 was using to determine Major/Minor status, I could think of a way to incorporate it into my template. Thanks again for your feedback. [[User:Telet093|Telet093]] 00:35, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

== A Question on Mini-Con Entries ==
As I'm hitting the "random page" button, I seem to come up with a Mini-Con page for this or that Mini-Con most of the time. Is there any reason every Mini-Con has its own page?

: All the ones in Armada and Cybertron, at least, have their own bios and personalities, so that should be enough for a page. I think, in principle, every toyed character should have its own page, whether it be a Nebulan, Mini-Con, Deployer, or what have you. I tend to only use the "Related characters" subsection for fiction-only humans and the like. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 15:24, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

==Question Time Again==
Would it be possible to consolidate the pages such as [[quartex]] and [[cycle]] and whatever else is floating about into just a single "Cybertronian Units of Time" page of some sort? I had no idea a "quartex" existed until I randomly hit the [[Conductors]] page, for instance, but having them all in one place might be helpful, or possibly to rename the page into "Measurements of time" and split off [[Megamile]]?--[[User:MCRG|MCRG]] 05:59, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

== CSS change ==

Hey Walky, I'm requesting a change to the sitewide CSS that you can see at [[MediaWiki_talk:Monobook.css]]

It's Wikipedia's pretty able classes. Wikia (buizarely) comes with ''no'' table classes. We dont' use tables much here, but should we want to, we'd want them to look like this. (And this is the class all the wikipedia-how-to-create-a-table tutorials tell you to use.) The code is unaltered from Wikipedia, so it won't conflict with anything.

Appreciate it if you could port it over for me.-[[User:Derik|Derik]] 01:31, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

== Scale question ==
Hi there, this is PacifistPrime, the originator of the new [[Scale]] article. Thanks very much for your contributions. Just one question though; you've changed some of the estimated "real world" heights for characters like Prime and Bumblebee, stating that they "have been calculated". I don't mean to disagree with you ''per se'' (although I must admit your figures do instinctively strike me as unlikely, but that's just my guestimate), but I was wondering if you could please source those figures. Not so much in the article itself (believe me, I'm very sick of the bluenoses over at Wikipedia always being on peoples' case about that), but rather just for my own personal interest. I've actually wanted for some time now to set up a project that would use the toys and specs for the real vehicles to calculate how big most of the pre-Movie G1s would be. But if someone has already done this, I'd love to know their results, and I'd be particularly interested in their method. Can you give me some directions? Please respond in my own talk page, if you don't mind. Hope to hear from you, [[User:PacifistPrime|PacifistPrime]].
:[http://groups.google.com/group/alt.toys.transformers/msg/6db411e03e75a342?dmode=source LV once figured it out using real vehicle lengths and stuff.]
:Also, a trend in the article seems to be overunderestimating the size of the Transformers in the cartoon, for example, saying that Optimus Prime would "only" be 20 feet tall, versus the giant size you believe he is. We've got lots of model sheets available to us that show that Optimus Prime was drawn to be 15-ish feet, or 3 Spikes tall. Now, the comic tended to draw the Transformers much, much larger than that, but in the cartoon, they were kinda dinky, though that's of course not incredibly consistent. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 15:39, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

== ''The Enemy Within Part 2'' ==

I'm wanting to start writing an article for ''The Enemy Within'', but there is one slight problem. My scans of the issue (saved from Seibertron and TCA before the comic scans were taken down) are missing pages 9 and 10 (the last two color pages) from part 2, and from what I've been able to dig up from the Wayback Machine, the scans used on the various sites never had those two pages (or a few from ''The Man Of Iron'' UK printing, and page 8 from UK #6). I'm not sure if this is kosher, but any idea where I might be able to "acquire" those two pages? --[[User:FortMax|FortMax]] 19:07, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

== Just Sayin' Hi ==

Ok, this is embarassing.

I've been on the TFWiki a while now, and on a lot of discussion pages I've posted on, you're the first or second person to answer a question or comment on my post.

I also read Shortpacked and didn't know you were... well, you.

It was seemingly at random I clicked on your link to see your page and, lo and behold, you're the reason for so much joy and pain, the grand well of Transformers knowledge, the de facto LEGENDARY user who knows how many punctuation marks are in the title of seemingly random comics... from EUROPE.

I simply want to say that it's an honor for me to be able to collaborate with you on this project. Transformers has always been a big part of my childhood, and now my adulthood. I'm starting up the UniCronicles (see my page for more details) and yours, along with several other webcomics I read, have inspired me. I thank you for Shortpacked, your contribution to Teletraan I, and, of course, for making fun of that ditzy purple skank. I mean, am I the only one who noticed she was like 3 million years the senior of most of the ''Cybertron'' cast? Granny's got her freak on.

Anyway, keep making teh funniez. I'll keep reading them. [[User:King Starscream|King Starscream]] 04:55, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

== Please remove (or at least justify) block ==
Um,
Excuse me, but... what the heck? (Block ID #49)

Why on earth have you blocked me? VANDALISM? Are you kidding?!?

Is this about the two snarky little comments spilled over from the Movie-G1-IDW categorisation micro-debate? i.e., the ones that were already deleated from the Movie pages well over a week ago and are thus no longer an issue at all? Have you seriously blocked me over that? Good lord...

Okay, maybe those TWO very SMALL comments were SLIGHTLY out of order, but to call it
vandalism...! This isn't Wikipedia, mate. If you wanna start policing sarcastic
comments and POV material then you've got a loooong task ahead of you on this
site, don't you think? Blocking me for those comments hardly seems rational.

That you wanted to delete them? Fine. But to BLOCK me for it? C'mon; get real.

I am a comparatively new user, but one in good standing who has contributed several articles and is polite in all discussions at every turn, far more so than some other users here that I've observed. I've noticed that on more than one occasion you have had somewhat grumpy reactions to things I have to say, so I'm more than a little suspicious that this block isn't some kind of vindictive action on your part, as you seemingly have some kind of problem with me, although I can't imagine on what basis.

This block is clearly absurd, and not at all in the spirit of fun and good
humour I've come to love about this site. I don't see how you can reasonably justify this action, and I am also complaining about this to your fellow adminstrator.

Yours indignantly, [[User:PacifistPrime|PacifistPrime]].
: For your information, I banned you right BEFORE I deleted your vandalism. It wasn't a week-later thing, no. And, yes, if you're going to end a long Talk Page discussion in which you were overwhelmingly outvoted by editing '''the articles themselves''' with retaliatory comments, then, yes, that's vandalism.

==BANNED==

What the hell did I do to warrant a ban, exactly? As far as I'm aware, I don't even think I broke any rules, and if I did, an official warning would be appropriate. I received no such warning. I was not here for trolling and you know that - you use that bullshit excuse to get people to ignore arguments you can't handle. But you, personally, who made this decision, know I'm not a troll.

This is fucking low. I had little enough respect for you down to your ranting against the fanbase, Willis, but this is a whole new level of buggery. If you're going to use your comic to rant against and discredit people you don't like, the least you can do is suck it up when people rant at you back, and not act like a control-freak child.

I really don't think you're aware of your own actions anymore.

:: Do the words "warning before ban" mean anything to you? Rulemongering doesn't justify a decision anyway, since Walky is one of the people making the rules. There were plenty of personal attacks leveled at me, but I did not report them officially.

::I really find it hard to believe that you think it's completely on a rational level of discourse to claim that the comic strip I draw is about child pornography. If I'm not mistaken about your identity, you've been banned from almost every single Transformers web board you've had an acquaintance with, and I'm only doing this place a favor by getting rid of you. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 00:22, 4 August 2007 (UTC)

::: That's not an excuse. I will openly admit I HAVE been banned from several forums, but only because I repeatedly opposed the staff on each and every one of them; and with good cause, they all have roughly the same problem. People bully others either into liking the movie or to agree with the kind of views you promote - and since nobody can directly attack or discredit anyone, these people(and you are) are left to their methods.
::: For your current decision to be validated, the admins of those boards, boards which are influenced in turn by your anti-fan attitude, would have to be near 100% correct in their decisions, and those decisions would have to occur within a context that would map exactly onto here. Any rational moderator does not base their decisions so much off performance on other boards, especially when it's not even a messageboard they're operating. Two different media. I have openly said I despise all active Transformers boards for their level of authoritarianism, yet level of tolerance towards the pushing of certain viewpoints.

::: Not to mention that you're still operating under the fallacy of Appeal to Majority - that alone means I shouldn't really even have to counter you.

::: And don't even use the "CHILD PORNOGRAPHY" thing as an excuse. Again, any rational moderator would warn several times before a ban, I personally reversed that edit even though it was obviously intended to be a joke as anyone reading this knows what pile'o'bile already is. You have no justification for what you did, but your ego is too big to realise you can actually do wrong with your power. You'll never admit it, but I wouldn't be surprised if some part of you is pissed that I defeated some of your ramblings, whether they were directly written by you or encouraged by you, it's still the kind of guff you normally blew, and I managed to defeat it. You, and the mods of the big sites will always have your ban buttons - but you will NEVER be able to justify your actions to me. That's how I know that I'm in the right, at least in situations like this - solidly backed justification is almost always absent.

Need I point out that once again, you are unable to defend yourself properly? When does the "You're insane?" come? Ganging up of all your little friends since a majority always means you're right?

--I'm deeply sorry

==Something I Noticed==

I see that when new users come in - I did this too - one of the first things they start to do is edit out the silly captions and some of the humor from the Wiki. This is mostly stemming from the transition from Wikipedia and other Wikis to Teletraan-1, since most others have strict no-humor. Is there a way to put up some sort of banner in the "Help Contents" guide, that explains, look, we're silly here sometimes?

==Things to say to you==
[[Image:Ttoc.GIF|right|thumb|We approve this message.]]

Just some thing I've been wanting to say to David...

First off, you're a monumental asshole. You have an ego the size of a small planet and it's irritating watching you act like an important SOB when you're basically just a nobody.

Second, your webcomics aren't funny. They're boring tripe that makes Penny Arcade look good(and believe me, Penny Arcade is garbage). Cyanide and Happiness is a funny webcomic, yours is not. Your "jokes" are painful, about like watching Michael Richards yell the n-word as a routine. You don't draw a comic, you draw an opinionated blog. I'm not sure which name suits your crap better, "ShitPacked" or "ShortDicked".

Your liberalism and your love of Indiana get on my nerves. You jab at Mallard Filmore? Yeah, one shitty comic making fun of another shitty comic. Or are you just pissed that his gets in newspapers while you're JUST a webcomic? As to Indiana, I live here, and if it were up to me, the state would be walled off and none of the freaks living there allowed to interact with the rest of the planet. The state is about 3 decades behind the times. But something tells me even you know this otherwise you'd still live here. I sure as hell do not live here by choice and as soon as I can, I'm moving far away from this joke of a state.

And your brand loyalty is typical fandom crap. You have Aaron Archer's rod so far down your throat it's unreal. And Aryan fucktard Michael Bay's rod has apparently joined it. I'd say soemthing abotu Don Murphy but he was born without one. Actually, I can say something- he's Kevin "unfunny asshole" Smith with more body fat. Hasbro didn't give the film to a competent director, just a cheap one. And neither Speilberg or ILM have done anything useful in years. Give WETA, or even Tom Savini a chance and we wouldn't be getting Bionicle bots. You're afraid to not like a Hasbro product. No wonder they don't have to go out of the way to please the "fans"- you'll accept it no matter what. But hey, you personally have been sucking off incompetent British bonehead Simon Furman and his shitty stories for years. There are no gods in Transformers. Unicron was built by a monkey, little man. Furman is dog shit.

And go figure this TF wiki is a joke full of misinformation, insults or outright lies- you're a mod here. You're never right. You're more of an incorrect pompous jerkoff than Defunct is. Right, ban me from editing, as if it would somehow matter, any info you don't agree with is pulled. You only have friends because people feel sorry for you. Me, I have no need. People are a commodity to be used and their wants only get in the way of what I'm out for. Use them and drop them.

Who am I? Go look who added a note about you on Encyclopedia Dramatica's Allspark page if you're not too lazy. As well as past AS, Kalidor, FIRRIB and Hooks entries(the hooks entry especially true). Oh, and just info on white people in general and that idiotic Nintendo Wii. I'm not making it that easy for you.

Hello ItsWalky, I've made you and Suki Brits admins for this wiki. Thanks for offering to help out! Let me know if there is anything you need help with or can't do. Please see [[Wikicities:Help:Administrators' how-to guide]] for the basics, and let me know if you want more admins added - you two will be fine for now, but more may be needed in time. Thanks again -- [[User:Sannse|sannse]] [[User talk:Sannse|(talk)]] 12:55, 15 March 2006 (UTC)

...RUN, HE'S GONE MAD WITH POWER!

I know Bodycount was being antagonistic about his changes (not just on the Nemesis Prime entry), but I think blocking him for 2 weeks may have been excessive. We should try to settle editorial conflicts through compromise, like they do at Wikipedia, by rewriting the article to express both points of view and the reasoning behind those views. On the other hand, I
have no idea who he is, aside from a vague feeling that he's an Allsparker. You may be more familiar with his habits than I. Maybe he's likely to just be disruptive. But from what I have seen just here at this site, I think the block was premature. --[[User:Steve-o|Steve-o]] 17:42, 13 April 2006 (UTC)

I Knew BC at Tfans, he was a bit antaganistic to the rabid GeeWuners, but he's a great kitbasher. [[User:X-BoB58|X-BoB58]] 05:01, 14 April 2006 (UTC)

Bodycount's been banned repeatedly from the Allspark, and from several other boards, as well. He's a textbook troll, and we're better off without him. - [[User:RolonBolon|RolonBolon]] 05:05, 14 April 2006 (UTC)

== Episode Template Comments ==

Hi ItsWalky. Thanks loads for your feedback. Sorry about the date thing. As for the loss of data between the two templates, reordering each of the groups for order of appearance shouldn't be too difficult, just means watching the episode carefully again (unfortunately, when I did the lists of characters for my own TF site, I didn't consider having them in order of appearance and thus alphabetized them right away). With regards to the difference between major and minor characters, I'm not sure I would quite know where to draw the line on who's what in every TF episode. To me, it would seem to depend if the character was regular, is he major or minor for the whole series, season, or just the episode, or if the character was a guest, I could see it likely being just the episode. Perhaps if I knew what guidline Teletraan-1 was using to determine Major/Minor status, I could think of a way to incorporate it into my template. Thanks again for your feedback. [[User:Telet093|Telet093]] 00:35, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

Hello again. Just to let you know I've incorporated order of appearance into my test template if you wanted to check it out: [[User:Telet093/The Master Builder]]. [[User:Telet093|Telet093]] 23:50, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
==Cartoon==
Hi - sorry for the home page edit, I was trying to figure out if I added the word "cartoon" at the top of the page, would google figure out that your site is not about power control and liquid transformers :-) [http://wikia.com/wiki/User:Gil Gil]
:Google's not gonna figger it out, no, not until they distinguish between the two in their databases. Believe me, every TF site with google ads has the same problem. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 06:01, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

== A Question on Mini-Con Entries ==
As I'm hitting the "random page" button, I seem to come up with a Mini-Con page for this or that Mini-Con most of the time. Is there any reason every Mini-Con has its own page? Could they be consolidated on to their respective team pages? This may be a community issue, but I figured an editor the best place to start.--[[User:MCRG|MCRG]] 08:43, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
: All the ones in Armada and Cybertron, at least, have their own bios and personalities, so that should be enough for a page. I think, in principle, every toyed character should have its own page, whether it be a Nebulan, Mini-Con, Deployer, or what have you. I tend to only use the "Related characters" subsection for fiction-only humans and the like. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 15:24, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

==Question Time Again==
Would it be possible to consolidate the pages such as [[quartex]] and [[cycle]] and whatever else is floating about into just a single "Cybertronian Units of Time" page of some sort? I had no idea a "quartex" existed until I randomly hit the [[Conductors]] page, for instance, but having them all in one place might be helpful, or possibly to rename the page into "Measurements of time" and split off [[Megamile]]?--[[User:MCRG|MCRG]] 05:59, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

Dude, the Seeker cateogry expressely said it was for G1 characters, and it wasn't until now that you decided that the Armada guys counted. Maximals was in Beast Era category, so I just made it more specific. Same for Vehicons. I'm sorry for pissing you off, but you're effectively blaming me for not being psychic.

== Images fitting ==

I have a wide screen resolution (1280x800), and often times images that are on the same side will start to stack up if there aren't enough lines of text between them, kind of like this:

:img | _______
_______| | img

That's what was happening with the Airazor pics. Would it be better to add in come blank lines? --[[User:FortMax|FortMax]] 15:18, 21 October 2006 (UTC)
: Well, in Airazor's case, we just had to fill in more summary. She was missing some key episodes, which filled in more text between the two images. On other pages, I dunno, it's a problem with the system, which we'll have to work out, 'cuz I think all images are gonna hafta be lefted if there's storylinks over there. Otherwise it's a mess. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 15:27, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

== About the delete of the IDW megatron Pic ==

The image illustrate megatron in his IDW form (as well as his alt mode), and it as been (at least) released on the official site. Isn't it all an image need to be. The text here, isn't the important part and is still readable anyway. Here just to prove it's not "stolen" or anything: http://www.idwpublishing.com/newreleases.shtml --[[User:GUIGUI|GUIGUI]] 14:12, 23 January 2007 (UTC)
: I know it's not stolen. We can probably manage to wait one more day until the actual issue comes out and we can have something of useable size to scan. The image, at the size it was, was useless. (Also, we should avoid having full pages up, unless absolutely necessary. Otherwise it's not exactly fair use.) --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 14:16, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

Are we talking about Chase? He's the only one that wouldn't get a (G1) otherwise, that I can think of... I would tentatively say that having the TF be [[Chase]] and the episode be [[Chase (Armada episode)]] would be fine.

== CSS change ==

Hey Walky, I'm requesting a change to the sitewide CSS that you can see at [[MediaWiki_talk:Monobook.css]]

It's Wikipedia's pretty able classes. Wikia (buizarely) comes with ''no'' table classes. We dont' use tables much here, but should we want to, we'd want them to look like this. (And this is the class all the wikipedia-how-to-create-a-table tutorials tell you to use.) The code is unaltered from Wikipedia, so it won't conflict with anything.

Appreciate it if you could port it over for me.-[[User:Derik|Derik]] 01:31, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

== Scale question ==
Hi there, this is PacifistPrime, the originator of the new [[Scale]] article. Thanks very much for your contributions. Just one question though; you've changed some of the estimated "real world" heights for characters like Prime and Bumblebee, stating that they "have been calculated". I don't mean to disagree with you ''per se'' (although I must admit your figures do instinctively strike me as unlikely, but that's just my guestimate), but I was wondering if you could please source those figures. Not so much in the article itself (believe me, I'm very sick of the bluenoses over at Wikipedia always being on peoples' case about that), but rather just for my own personal interest. I've actually wanted for some time now to set up a project that would use the toys and specs for the real vehicles to calculate how big most of the pre-Movie G1s would be. But if someone has already done this, I'd love to know their results, and I'd be particularly interested in their method. Can you give me some directions? Please respond in my own talk page, if you don't mind. Hope to hear from you, [[User:PacifistPrime|PacifistPrime]].
:[http://groups.google.com/group/alt.toys.transformers/msg/6db411e03e75a342?dmode=source LV once figured it out using real vehicle lengths and stuff.]
:Also, a trend in the article seems to be overunderestimating the size of the Transformers in the cartoon, for example, saying that Optimus Prime would "only" be 20 feet tall, versus the giant size you believe he is. We've got lots of model sheets available to us that show that Optimus Prime was drawn to be 15-ish feet, or 3 Spikes tall. Now, the comic tended to draw the Transformers much, much larger than that, but in the cartoon, they were kinda dinky, though that's of course not incredibly consistent. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 15:39, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

== ''The Enemy Within Part 2'' ==

I'm wanting to start writing an article for ''The Enemy Within'', but there is one slight problem. My scans of the issue (saved from Seibertron and TCA before the comic scans were taken down) are missing pages 9 and 10 (the last two color pages) from part 2, and from what I've been able to dig up from the Wayback Machine, the scans used on the various sites never had those two pages (or a few from ''The Man Of Iron'' UK printing, and page 8 from UK #6). I'm not sure if this is kosher, but any idea where I might be able to "acquire" those two pages? --[[User:FortMax|FortMax]] 19:07, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

== Just Sayin' Hi ==

Ok, this is embarassing.

I've been on the TFWiki a while now, and on a lot of discussion pages I've posted on, you're the first or second person to answer a question or comment on my post.

I also read Shortpacked and didn't know you were... well, you.

It was seemingly at random I clicked on your link to see your page and, lo and behold, you're the reason for so much joy and pain, the grand well of Transformers knowledge, the de facto LEGENDARY user who knows how many punctuation marks are in the title of seemingly random comics... from EUROPE.

I simply want to say that it's an honor for me to be able to collaborate with you on this project. Transformers has always been a big part of my childhood, and now my adulthood. I'm starting up the UniCronicles (see my page for more details) and yours, along with several other webcomics I read, have inspired me. I thank you for Shortpacked, your contribution to Teletraan I, and, of course, for making fun of that ditzy purple skank. I mean, am I the only one who noticed she was like 3 million years the senior of most of the ''Cybertron'' cast? Granny's got her freak on.

== Please remove (or at least justify) block ==
Um,
Excuse me, but... what the heck? (Block ID #49)

Why on earth have you blocked me? VANDALISM? Are you kidding?!?

Is this about the two snarky little comments spilled over from the Movie-G1-IDW categorisation micro-debate? i.e., the ones that were already deleated from the Movie pages well over a week ago and are thus no longer an issue at all? Have you seriously blocked me over that? Good lord...

Okay, maybe those TWO very SMALL comments were SLIGHTLY out of order, but to call it
vandalism...! This isn't Wikipedia, mate. If you wanna start policing sarcastic
comments and POV material then you've got a loooong task ahead of you on this
site, don't you think? Blocking me for those comments hardly seems rational.

That you wanted to delete them? Fine. But to BLOCK me for it? C'mon; get real.

I am a comparatively new user, but one in good standing who has contributed several articles and is polite in all discussions at every turn, far more so than some other users here that I've observed. I've noticed that on more than one occasion you have had somewhat grumpy reactions to things I have to say, so I'm more than a little suspicious that this block isn't some kind of vindictive action on your part, as you seemingly have some kind of problem with me, although I can't imagine on what basis.

This block is clearly absurd, and not at all in the spirit of fun and good
humour I've come to love about this site. I don't see how you can reasonably justify this action, and I am also complaining about this to your fellow adminstrator.

Yours indignantly, [[User:PacifistPrime|PacifistPrime]].
: For your information, I banned you right BEFORE I deleted your vandalism. It wasn't a week-later thing, no. And, yes, if you're going to end a long Talk Page discussion in which you were overwhelmingly outvoted by editing '''the articles themselves''' with retaliatory comments, then, yes, that's vandalism.

==BANNED==

What the hell did I do to warrant a ban, exactly? As far as I'm aware, I don't even think I broke any rules, and if I did, an official warning would be appropriate. I received no such warning. I was not here for trolling and you know that - you use that bullshit excuse to get people to ignore arguments you can't handle. But you, personally, who made this decision, know I'm not a troll.

This is fucking low. I had little enough respect for you down to your ranting against the fanbase, Willis, but this is a whole new level of buggery. If you're going to use your comic to rant against and discredit people you don't like, the least you can do is suck it up when people rant at you back, and not act like a control-freak child.

I really don't think you're aware of your own actions anymore.
*Do the words [[Wikipedia:WP:NPA|no personal attacks]] mean anything to you? -- [[User:SFH|SFH]] 00:18, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
:: Do the words "warning before ban" mean anything to you? Rulemongering doesn't justify a decision anyway, since Walky is one of the people making the rules. There were plenty of personal attacks leveled at me, but I did not report them officially.

::I really find it hard to believe that you think it's completely on a rational level of discourse to claim that the comic strip I draw is about child pornography. If I'm not mistaken about your identity, you've been banned from almost every single Transformers web board you've had an acquaintance with, and I'm only doing this place a favor by getting rid of you. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 00:22, 4 August 2007 (UTC)

::: That's not an excuse. I will openly admit I HAVE been banned from several forums, but only because I repeatedly opposed the staff on each and every one of them; and with good cause, they all have roughly the same problem. People bully others either into liking the movie or to agree with the kind of views you promote - and since nobody can directly attack or discredit anyone, these people(and you are) are left to their methods.
::: For your current decision to be validated, the admins of those boards, boards which are influenced in turn by your anti-fan attitude, would have to be near 100% correct in their decisions, and those decisions would have to occur within a context that would map exactly onto here. Any rational moderator does not base their decisions so much off performance on other boards, especially when it's not even a messageboard they're operating. Two different media. I have openly said I despise all active Transformers boards for their level of authoritarianism, yet level of tolerance towards the pushing of certain viewpoints.

::: Not to mention that you're still operating under the fallacy of Appeal to Majority - that alone means I shouldn't really even have to counter you.

::: And don't even use the "CHILD PORNOGRAPHY" thing as an excuse. Again, any rational moderator would warn several times before a ban, I personally reversed that edit even though it was obviously intended to be a joke as anyone reading this knows what pile'o'bile already is. You have no justification for what you did, but your ego is too big to realise you can actually do wrong with your power. You'll never admit it, but I wouldn't be surprised if some part of you is pissed that I defeated some of your ramblings, whether they were directly written by you or encouraged by you, it's still the kind of guff you normally blew, and I managed to defeat it. You, and the mods of the big sites will always have your ban buttons - but you will NEVER be able to justify your actions to me. That's how I know that I'm in the right, at least in situations like this - solidly backed justification is almost always absent.

--I'm deeply sorry

==Something I Noticed==

I see that when new users come in - I did this too - one of the first things they start to do is edit out the silly captions and some of the humor from the Wiki. This is mostly stemming from the transition from Wikipedia and other Wikis to Teletraan-1, since most others have strict no-humor. Is there a way to put up some sort of banner in the "Help Contents" guide, that explains, look, we're silly here sometimes?

And, um, that guy below is just funny as hell. [[User:Mirai Gen|Mirai Gen]] 19:36, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

==Things to say to you==
[[Image:Ttoc.GIF|right|thumb|We approve this message.]]

Just some thing I've been wanting to say to David...

First off, you're a monumental asshole. You have an ego the size of a small planet and it's irritating watching you act like an important SOB when you're basically just a nobody.

Second, your webcomics aren't funny. They're boring tripe that makes Penny Arcade look good(and believe me, Penny Arcade is garbage). Cyanide and Happiness is a funny webcomic, yours is not. Your "jokes" are painful, about like watching Michael Richards yell the n-word as a routine. You don't draw a comic, you draw an opinionated blog. I'm not sure which name suits your crap better, "ShitPacked" or "ShortDicked".

Your liberalism and your love of Indiana get on my nerves. You jab at Mallard Filmore? Yeah, one shitty comic making fun of another shitty comic. Or are you just pissed that his gets in newspapers while you're JUST a webcomic? As to Indiana, I live here, and if it were up to me, the state would be walled off and none of the freaks living there allowed to interact with the rest of the planet. The state is about 3 decades behind the times. But something tells me even you know this otherwise you'd still live here. I sure as hell do not live here by choice and as soon as I can, I'm moving far away from this joke of a state.

And your brand loyalty is typical fandom crap. You have Aaron Archer's rod so far down your throat it's unreal. And Aryan fucktard Michael Bay's rod has apparently joined it. I'd say soemthing abotu Don Murphy but he was born without one. Actually, I can say something- he's Kevin "unfunny asshole" Smith with more body fat. Hasbro didn't give the film to a competent director, just a cheap one. And neither Speilberg or ILM have done anything useful in years. Give WETA, or even Tom Savini a chance and we wouldn't be getting Bionicle bots. You're afraid to not like a Hasbro product. No wonder they don't have to go out of the way to please the "fans"- you'll accept it no matter what. But hey, you personally have been sucking off incompetent British bonehead Simon Furman and his shitty stories for years. There are no gods in Transformers. Unicron was built by a monkey, little man. Furman is dog shit.

And go figure this TF wiki is a joke full of misinformation, insults or outright lies- you're a mod here. You're never right. You're more of an incorrect pompous jerkoff than Defunct is. Right, ban me from editing, as if it would somehow matter, any info you don't agree with is pulled. You only have friends because people feel sorry for you. Me, I have no need. People are a commodity to be used and their wants only get in the way of what I'm out for. Use them and drop them.

Who am I? Go look who added a note about you on Encyclopedia Dramatica's Allspark page if you're not too lazy. As well as past AS, Kalidor, FIRRIB and Hooks entries(the hooks entry especially true). Oh, and just info on white people in general and that idiotic Nintendo Wii. I'm not making it that easy for you.

Just that I read the article and thought it was vandalism from the way it was written. So I accidently reverted it to the old one, which had more of something that seemed like vanderism. Then I realize I am not in wikipeida, but in Transformers wiki. I clicked on a link from Tformers.com and since the two sites look so damn similar, yeah......That explains the humor and why I had to make an account here. Sorry, but I am wishy washy at the moment since I have a term paper due soon and haven't gotten any sleep. Sorry. LOL--[[User:Doomzaber|Doomzaber]] 03:14, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

...RUN, HE'S GONE MAD WITH POWER!

I know Bodycount was being antagonistic about his changes (not just on the Nemesis Prime entry), but I think blocking him for 2 weeks may have been excessive. We should try to settle editorial conflicts through compromise, like they do at Wikipedia, by rewriting the article to express both points of view and the reasoning behind those views. On the other hand, I
have no idea who he is, aside from a vague feeling that he's an Allsparker. You may be more familiar with his habits than I. Maybe he's likely to just be disruptive.

== Episode Template Comments ==

Hi ItsWalky. Thanks loads for your feedback. Sorry about the date thing. As for the loss of data between the two templates, reordering each of the groups for order of appearance shouldn't be too difficult, just means watching the episode carefully again (unfortunately, when I did the lists of characters for my own TF site, I didn't consider having them in order of appearance and thus alphabetized them right away). With regards to the difference between major and minor characters, I'm not sure I would quite know where to draw the line on who's what in every TF episode. To me, it would seem to depend if the character was regular, is he major or minor for the whole series, season, or just the episode, or if the character was a guest, I could see it likely being just the episode. Perhaps if I knew what guidline Teletraan-1 was using to determine Major/Minor status, I could think of a way to incorporate it into my template. Thanks again for your feedback. [[User:Telet093|Telet093]] 00:35, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

== A Question on Mini-Con Entries ==
As I'm hitting the "random page" button, I seem to come up with a Mini-Con page for this or that Mini-Con most of the time. Is there any reason every Mini-Con has its own page? Could they be consolidated on to their respective team pages? This may be a community issue, but I figured an editor the best place to start.--[[User:MCRG|MCRG]] 08:43, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
: All the ones in Armada and Cybertron, at least, have their own bios and personalities, so that should be enough for a page. I think, in principle, every toyed character should have its own page, whether it be a Nebulan, Mini-Con, Deployer, or what have you. I tend to only use the "Related characters" subsection for fiction-only humans and the like. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 15:24, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

==Question Time Again==
Would it be possible to consolidate the pages such as [[quartex]] and [[cycle]] and whatever else is floating about into just a single "Cybertronian Units of Time" page of some sort? I had no idea a "quartex" existed until I randomly hit the [[Conductors]] page, for instance, but having them all in one place might be helpful, or possibly to rename the page into "Measurements of time" and split off [[Megamile]]?--[[User:MCRG|MCRG]] 05:59, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

Hey Walky, I'm requesting a change to the sitewide CSS that you can see at [[MediaWiki_talk:Monobook.css]]

It's Wikipedia's pretty able classes. Wikia (buizarely) comes with ''no'' table classes. We dont' use tables much here, but should we want to, we'd want them to look like this.

== Scale question ==
Hi there, this is PacifistPrime, the originator of the new [[Scale]] article. Thanks very much for your contributions. Just one question though; you've changed some of the estimated "real world" heights for characters like Prime and Bumblebee, stating that they "have been calculated". I don't mean to disagree with you ''per se'' (although I must admit your figures do instinctively strike me as unlikely, but that's just my guestimate), but I was wondering if you could please source those figures. Not so much in the article itself (believe me, I'm very sick of the bluenoses over at Wikipedia always being on peoples' case about that), but rather just for my own personal interest. I've actually wanted for some time now to set up a project that would use the toys and specs for the real vehicles to calculate how big most of the pre-Movie G1s would be. But if someone has already done this, I'd love to know their results, and I'd be particularly interested in their method. Can you give me some directions? Please respond in my own talk page, if you don't mind. Hope to hear from you, [[User:PacifistPrime|PacifistPrime]].
:[http://groups.google.com/group/alt.toys.transformers/msg/6db411e03e75a342?dmode=source LV once figured it out using real vehicle lengths and stuff.]
:Also, a trend in the article seems to be overunderestimating the size of the Transformers in the cartoon, for example, saying that Optimus Prime would "only" be 20 feet tall, versus the giant size you believe he is. We've got lots of model sheets available to us that show that Optimus Prime was drawn to be 15-ish feet, or 3 Spikes tall. Now, the comic tended to draw the Transformers much, much larger than that, but in the cartoon, they were kinda dinky, though that's of course not incredibly consistent. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 15:39, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

Hey man, that's totally fair enough; realise I was on a bit of a rave there about Masterpiece Megs. Still, you didn't have to be impolite about it. Cheers, [[User:PacifistPrime|PacifistPrime]]. P.S. I wouldn't be caught dead writing a blog. Got much better things to do with my time. Like edit this wiki. ;-)
:Me again. I seem to stuff up on your watch pretty regularly, huh? Sorry about the E.J.Su cover thing; I honestly thought that WAS him for some reason. So much so, in fact, that I was wondering myself why the style seemed a little inconsistent with his other work...! Do you know who ''did'' do it?

== one more Dinobot question ==

I'm wanting to try the part swap you did with your BWX Dinobots, but have one problem. Is there a way to remove the upper half of the molds upper arms without messing up the pegs and holes? Years ago, I removed those parts from my FoxKids Dinobot, but after re-assembling him, the arms would often pop off while rotating the shoulder swivel. --[[User:FortMax|FortMax]] 18:09, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

The bicep piece, you mean? I haven't had any trouble with it. I just yanked it out of its socket, unscrewed it from the elbow, swapped, and voila. Worked same as before. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 18:32, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

== Just Sayin' Hi ==

Ok, this is embarassing.

I've been on the TFWiki a while now, and on a lot of discussion pages I've posted on, you're the first or second person to answer a question or comment on my post.

I also read Shortpacked and didn't know you were... well, you.

It was seemingly at random I clicked on your link to see your page and, lo and behold, you're the reason for so much joy and pain, the grand well of Transformers knowledge, the de facto LEGENDARY user who knows how many punctuation marks are in the title of seemingly random comics... from EUROPE.

I simply want to say that it's an honor for me to be able to collaborate with you on this project. Transformers has always been a big part of my childhood, and now my adulthood. I'm starting up the UniCronicles (see my page for more details) and yours, along with several other webcomics I read, have inspired me. I thank you for Shortpacked, your contribution to Teletraan I, and, of course, for making fun of that ditzy purple skank. I mean, am I the only one who noticed she was like 3 million years the senior of most of the ''Cybertron'' cast? Granny's got her freak on.

Anyway, keep making teh funniez. I'll keep reading them. [[User:King Starscream|King Starscream]] 04:55, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

== Transformers Chess Set ==

Do you know anything about the upcoming Tranformers Chess set? All I know is that Autobots are gold, and Decepticons are silver. And what should we do about an article? Just call it "Chess" or "Transformers Chess"? Plus, can anyone confirm whether or not Bumblebee is the pawn for the Autobot side? [[User:King Starscream|King Starscream]] 02:57, 9 May 2007 (UTC)

== Please remove (or at least justify) block ==
Um,
Excuse me, but... what the heck? (Block ID #49)

Why on earth have you blocked me? VANDALISM? Are you kidding?!?

Is this about the two snarky little comments spilled over from the Movie-G1-IDW categorisation micro-debate? i.e., the ones that were already deleated from the Movie pages well over a week ago and are thus no longer an issue at all? Have you seriously blocked me over that? Good lord...

Okay, maybe those TWO very SMALL comments were SLIGHTLY out of order, but to call it
vandalism...! This isn't Wikipedia, mate. If you wanna start policing sarcastic
comments and POV material then you've got a loooong task ahead of you on this
site, don't you think? Blocking me for those comments hardly seems rational.

That you wanted to delete them? Fine. But to BLOCK me for it? C'mon; get real.

I am a comparatively new user, but one in good standing who has contributed several articles and is polite in all discussions at every turn, far more so than some other users here that I've observed. I've noticed that on more than one occasion you have had somewhat grumpy reactions to things I have to say, so I'm more than a little suspicious that this block isn't some kind of vindictive action on your part, as you seemingly have some kind of problem with me, although I can't imagine on what basis.

This block is clearly absurd, and not at all in the spirit of fun and good
humour I've come to love about this site. I don't see how you can reasonably justify this action, and I am also complaining about this to your fellow adminstrator.

Yours indignantly, [[User:PacifistPrime|PacifistPrime]].
: For your information, I banned you right BEFORE I deleted your vandalism. It wasn't a week-later thing, no. And, yes, if you're going to end a long Talk Page discussion in which you were overwhelmingly outvoted by editing '''the articles themselves''' with retaliatory comments, then, yes, that's vandalism. Certainly, if that's going to be the nature of your contributions here, then you don't belong. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 01:29, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

Don't take my word for it: please look at my history of contribution and discussion with other users. I've always been scrupulously polite and have never gotten into an edit war with anyone.

::So, Okay, yes, if you really want me to say it: I DID A BAD THING. I'm sorry. Don't you guys have some kind of strike system? To permanently ban me over this small piece of sarcasm really seems excessive, don't you think?

==BANNED==

What the hell did I do to warrant a ban, exactly? As far as I'm aware, I don't even think I broke any rules, and if I did, an official warning would be appropriate. I received no such warning. I was not here for trolling and you know that - you use that bullshit excuse to get people to ignore arguments you can't handle. But you, personally, who made this decision, know I'm not a troll.

This is fucking low. I had little enough respect for you down to your ranting against the fanbase, Willis, but this is a whole new level of buggery. If you're going to use your comic to rant against and discredit people you don't like, the least you can do is suck it up when people rant at you back, and not act like a control-freak child.

I really don't think you're aware of your own actions anymore.
*Do the words [[Wikipedia:WP:NPA|no personal attacks]] mean anything to you? -- [[User:SFH|SFH]] 00:18, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
:: Do the words "warning before ban" mean anything to you? Rulemongering doesn't justify a decision anyway, since Walky is one of the people making the rules. There were plenty of personal attacks leveled at me, but I did not report them officially.

::I really find it hard to believe that you think it's completely on a rational level of discourse to claim that the comic strip I draw is about child pornography. If I'm not mistaken about your identity, you've been banned from almost every single Transformers web board you've had an acquaintance with, and I'm only doing this place a favor by getting rid of you. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 00:22, 4 August 2007 (UTC)

::: That's not an excuse. I will openly admit I HAVE been banned from several forums, but only because I repeatedly opposed the staff on each and every one of them; and with good cause, they all have roughly the same problem. People bully others either into liking the movie or to agree with the kind of views you promote - and since nobody can directly attack or discredit anyone, these people(and you are) are left to their methods.
::: For your current decision to be validated, the admins of those boards, boards which are influenced in turn by your anti-fan attitude, would have to be near 100% correct in their decisions, and those decisions would have to occur within a context that would map exactly onto here. Any rational moderator does not base their decisions so much off performance on other boards, especially when it's not even a messageboard they're operating. Two different media. I have openly said I despise all active Transformers boards for their level of authoritarianism, yet level of tolerance towards the pushing of certain viewpoints.

::: Not to mention that you're still operating under the fallacy of Appeal to Majority - that alone means I shouldn't really even have to counter you.

::: And don't even use the "CHILD PORNOGRAPHY" thing as an excuse. Again, any rational moderator would warn several times before a ban, I personally reversed that edit even though it was obviously intended to be a joke as anyone reading this knows what pile'o'bile already is. You have no justification for what you did, but your ego is too big to realise you can actually do wrong with your power. You'll never admit it, but I wouldn't be surprised if some part of you is pissed that I defeated some of your ramblings, whether they were directly written by you or encouraged by you, it's still the kind of guff you normally blew, and I managed to defeat it. You, and the mods of the big sites will always have your ban buttons - but you will NEVER be able to justify your actions to me. That's how I know that I'm in the right, at least in situations like this - solidly backed justification is almost always absent.

==Something I Noticed==

I see that when new users come in - I did this too - one of the first things they start to do is edit out the silly captions and some of the humor from the Wiki. This is mostly stemming from the transition from Wikipedia and other Wikis to Teletraan-1, since most others have strict no-humor. Is there a way to put up some sort of banner in the "Help Contents" guide, that explains, look, we're silly here sometimes?

And, um, that guy below is just funny as hell. [[User:Mirai Gen|Mirai Gen]] 19:36, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

==Things to say to you==
[[Image:Ttoc.GIF|right|thumb|We approve this message.]]

Just some thing I've been wanting to say to David...

First off, you're a monumental asshole. You have an ego the size of a small planet and it's irritating watching you act like an important SOB when you're basically just a nobody.

Second, your webcomics aren't funny. They're boring tripe that makes Penny Arcade look good(and believe me, Penny Arcade is garbage). Cyanide and Happiness is a funny webcomic, yours is not. Your "jokes" are painful, about like watching Michael Richards yell the n-word as a routine. You don't draw a comic, you draw an opinionated blog. I'm not sure which name suits your crap better, "ShitPacked" or "ShortDicked".

Your liberalism and your love of Indiana get on my nerves. You jab at Mallard Filmore? Yeah, one shitty comic making fun of another shitty comic. Or are you just pissed that his gets in newspapers while you're JUST a webcomic? As to Indiana, I live here, and if it were up to me, the state would be walled off and none of the freaks living there allowed to interact with the rest of the planet. The state is about 3 decades behind the times. But something tells me even you know this otherwise you'd still live here. I sure as hell do not live here by choice and as soon as I can, I'm moving far away from this joke of a state.

And your brand loyalty is typical fandom crap. You have Aaron Archer's rod so far down your throat it's unreal. And Aryan fucktard Michael Bay's rod has apparently joined it. I'd say soemthing abotu Don Murphy but he was born without one. Actually, I can say something- he's Kevin "unfunny asshole" Smith with more body fat. Hasbro didn't give the film to a competent director, just a cheap one. And neither Speilberg or ILM have done anything useful in years. Give WETA, or even Tom Savini a chance and we wouldn't be getting Bionicle bots. You're afraid to not like a Hasbro product. No wonder they don't have to go out of the way to please the "fans"- you'll accept it no matter what. But hey, you personally have been sucking off incompetent British bonehead Simon Furman and his shitty stories for years. There are no gods in Transformers. Unicron was built by a monkey, little man. Furman is dog shit.

And go figure this TF wiki is a joke full of misinformation, insults or outright lies- you're a mod here. You're never right. You're more of an incorrect pompous jerkoff than Defunct is. Right, ban me from editing, as if it would somehow matter, any info you don't agree with is pulled. You only have friends because people feel sorry for you. Me, I have no need. People are a commodity to be used and their wants only get in the way of what I'm out for. Use them and drop them.

Who am I? Go look who added a note about you on Encyclopedia Dramatica's Allspark page if you're not too lazy. As well as past AS, Kalidor, FIRRIB and Hooks entries(the hooks entry especially true). Oh, and just info on white people in general and that idiotic Nintendo Wii. I'm not making it that easy for you.

Then I realize I am not in wikipeida, but in Transformers wiki. I clicked on a link from Tformers.com and since the two sites look so damn similar, yeah......That explains the humor and why I had to make an account here.

I know Bodycount was being antagonistic about his changes (not just on the Nemesis Prime entry), but I think blocking him for 2 weeks may have been excessive. We should try to settle editorial conflicts through compromise, like they do at Wikipedia, by rewriting the article to express both points of view and the reasoning behind those views. On the other hand, I
have no idea who he is, aside from a vague feeling that he's an Allsparker. You may be more familiar with his habits than I. Maybe he's likely to just be disruptive.

== Episode Template Comments ==

Hi ItsWalky. Thanks loads for your feedback. Sorry about the date thing. As for the loss of data between the two templates, reordering each of the groups for order of appearance shouldn't be too difficult, just means watching the episode carefully again (unfortunately, when I did the lists of characters for my own TF site, I didn't consider having them in order of appearance and thus alphabetized them right away). With regards to the difference between major and minor characters, I'm not sure I would quite know where to draw the line on who's what in every TF episode. To me, it would seem to depend if the character was regular, is he major or minor for the whole series, season, or just the episode, or if the character was a guest, I could see it likely being just the episode. Perhaps if I knew what guidline Teletraan-1 was using to determine Major/Minor status, I could think of a way to incorporate it into my template. Thanks again for your feedback. [[User:Telet093|Telet093]] 00:35, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

== A Question on Mini-Con Entries ==
As I'm hitting the "random page" button, I seem to come up with a Mini-Con page for this or that Mini-Con most of the time. Is there any reason every Mini-Con has its own page?

: All the ones in Armada and Cybertron, at least, have their own bios and personalities, so that should be enough for a page. I think, in principle, every toyed character should have its own page, whether it be a Nebulan, Mini-Con, Deployer, or what have you. I tend to only use the "Related characters" subsection for fiction-only humans and the like. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 15:24, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

==Question Time Again==
Would it be possible to consolidate the pages such as [[quartex]] and [[cycle]] and whatever else is floating about into just a single "Cybertronian Units of Time" page of some sort? I had no idea a "quartex" existed until I randomly hit the [[Conductors]] page, for instance, but having them all in one place might be helpful, or possibly to rename the page into "Measurements of time" and split off [[Megamile]]?--[[User:MCRG|MCRG]] 05:59, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

== Images fitting ==

I have a wide screen resolution (1280x800), and often times images that are on the same side will start to stack up if there aren't enough lines of text between them, kind of like this:

:img | _______
_______| | img

That's what was happening with the Airazor pics. Would it be better to add in come blank lines? --[[User:FortMax|FortMax]] 15:18, 21 October 2006 (UTC)
: Well, in Airazor's case, we just had to fill in more summary. She was missing some key episodes, which filled in more text between the two images. On other pages, I dunno, it's a problem with the system, which we'll have to work out, 'cuz I think all images are gonna hafta be lefted if there's storylinks over there. Otherwise it's a mess. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 15:27, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

== About the delete of the IDW megatron Pic ==

The image illustrate megatron in his IDW form (as well as his alt mode), and it as been (at least) released on the official site. Isn't it all an image need to be.

Here just to prove it's not "stolen" or anything: http://www.idwpublishing.com/newreleases.shtml --[[User:GUIGUI|GUIGUI]] 14:12, 23 January 2007 (UTC)
: I know it's not stolen. We can probably manage to wait one more day until the actual issue comes out and we can have something of useable size to scan. The image, at the size it was, was useless. (Also, we should avoid having full pages up, unless absolutely necessary. Otherwise it's not exactly fair use.) --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 14:16, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

== CSS change ==

Hey Walky, I'm requesting a change to the sitewide CSS that you can see at [[MediaWiki_talk:Monobook.css]]

It's Wikipedia's pretty able classes. Wikia (buizarely) comes with ''no'' table classes. We dont' use tables much here, but should we want to, we'd want them to look like this. (And this is the class all the wikipedia-how-to-create-a-table tutorials tell you to use.) The code is unaltered from Wikipedia, so it won't conflict with anything.

Appreciate it if you could port it over for me.-[[User:Derik|Derik]] 01:31, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

== Scale question ==
Hi there, this is PacifistPrime, the originator of the new [[Scale]] article. Thanks very much for your contributions. Just one question though; you've changed some of the estimated "real world" heights for characters like Prime and Bumblebee, stating that they "have been calculated". I don't mean to disagree with you ''per se'' (although I must admit your figures do instinctively strike me as unlikely, but that's just my guestimate), but I was wondering if you could please source those figures. Not so much in the article itself (believe me, I'm very sick of the bluenoses over at Wikipedia always being on peoples' case about that), but rather just for my own personal interest. I've actually wanted for some time now to set up a project that would use the toys and specs for the real vehicles to calculate how big most of the pre-Movie G1s would be. But if someone has already done this, I'd love to know their results, and I'd be particularly interested in their method. Can you give me some directions? Please respond in my own talk page, if you don't mind. Hope to hear from you, [[User:PacifistPrime|PacifistPrime]].
:[http://groups.google.com/group/alt.toys.transformers/msg/6db411e03e75a342?dmode=source LV once figured it out using real vehicle lengths and stuff.]
:Also, a trend in the article seems to be overunderestimating the size of the Transformers in the cartoon, for example, saying that Optimus Prime would "only" be 20 feet tall, versus the giant size you believe he is. We've got lots of model sheets available to us that show that Optimus Prime was drawn to be 15-ish feet, or 3 Spikes tall. Now, the comic tended to draw the Transformers much, much larger than that, but in the cartoon, they were kinda dinky, though that's of course not incredibly consistent. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 15:39, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

== ''The Enemy Within Part 2'' ==

I'm wanting to start writing an article for ''The Enemy Within'', but there is one slight problem. My scans of the issue (saved from Seibertron and TCA before the comic scans were taken down) are missing pages 9 and 10 (the last two color pages) from part 2, and from what I've been able to dig up from the Wayback Machine, the scans used on the various sites never had those two pages (or a few from ''The Man Of Iron'' UK printing, and page 8 from UK #6).

== Just Sayin' Hi ==

Ok, this is embarassing.

I've been on the TFWiki a while now, and on a lot of discussion pages I've posted on, you're the first or second person to answer a question or comment on my post.

I also read Shortpacked and didn't know you were... well, you.

It was seemingly at random I clicked on your link to see your page and, lo and behold, you're the reason for so much joy and pain, the grand well of Transformers knowledge, the de facto LEGENDARY user who knows how many punctuation marks are in the title of seemingly random comics... from EUROPE.

I simply want to say that it's an honor for me to be able to collaborate with you on this project. Transformers has always been a big part of my childhood, and now my adulthood. I'm starting up the UniCronicles (see my page for more details) and yours, along with several other webcomics I read, have inspired me. I thank you for Shortpacked, your contribution to Teletraan I, and, of course, for making fun of that ditzy purple skank. I mean, am I the only one who noticed she was like 3 million years the senior of most of the ''Cybertron'' cast? Granny's got her freak on.

Anyway, keep making teh funniez. I'll keep reading them. [[User:King Starscream|King Starscream]] 04:55, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

== Please remove (or at least justify) block ==
Um,
Excuse me, but... what the heck? (Block ID #49)

Why on earth have you blocked me? VANDALISM? Are you kidding?!?

Is this about the two snarky little comments spilled over from the Movie-G1-IDW categorisation micro-debate? i.e., the ones that were already deleated from the Movie pages well over a week ago and are thus no longer an issue at all? Have you seriously blocked me over that? Good lord...

Okay, maybe those TWO very SMALL comments were SLIGHTLY out of order, but to call it
vandalism...! This isn't Wikipedia, mate. If you wanna start policing sarcastic
comments and POV material then you've got a loooong task ahead of you on this
site, don't you think? Blocking me for those comments hardly seems rational.

That you wanted to delete them? Fine. But to BLOCK me for it? C'mon; get real.

I am a comparatively new user, but one in good standing who has contributed several articles and is polite in all discussions at every turn, far more so than some other users here that I've observed. I've noticed that on more than one occasion you have had somewhat grumpy reactions to things I have to say, so I'm more than a little suspicious that this block isn't some kind of vindictive action on your part, as you seemingly have some kind of problem with me, although I can't imagine on what basis.

This block is clearly absurd, and not at all in the spirit of fun and good
humour I've come to love about this site. I don't see how you can reasonably justify this action, and I am also complaining about this to your fellow adminstrator.

Yours indignantly, [[User:PacifistPrime|PacifistPrime]].
: For your information, I banned you right BEFORE I deleted your vandalism. It wasn't a week-later thing, no. And, yes, if you're going to end a long Talk Page discussion in which you were overwhelmingly outvoted by editing '''the articles themselves''' with retaliatory comments, then, yes, that's vandalism.

What the hell did I do to warrant a ban, exactly? As far as I'm aware, I don't even think I broke any rules, and if I did, an official warning would be appropriate. I received no such warning. I was not here for trolling and you know that - you use that bullshit excuse to get people to ignore arguments you can't handle. But you, personally, who made this decision, know I'm not a troll.

This is fucking low. I had little enough respect for you down to your ranting against the fanbase, Willis, but this is a whole new level of buggery. If you're going to use your comic to rant against and discredit people you don't like, the least you can do is suck it up when people rant at you back, and not act like a control-freak child.

I really don't think you're aware of your own actions anymore.

:: Do the words "warning before ban" mean anything to you? Rulemongering doesn't justify a decision anyway, since Walky is one of the people making the rules. There were plenty of personal attacks leveled at me, but I did not report them officially.

::I really find it hard to believe that you think it's completely on a rational level of discourse to claim that the comic strip I draw is about child pornography.

::: That's not an excuse. I will openly admit I HAVE been banned from several forums, but only because I repeatedly opposed the staff on each and every one of them; and with good cause, they all have roughly the same problem. People bully others either into liking the movie or to agree with the kind of views you promote - and since nobody can directly attack or discredit anyone, these people(and you are) are left to their methods.
::: For your current decision to be validated, the admins of those boards, boards which are influenced in turn by your anti-fan attitude, would have to be near 100% correct in their decisions, and those decisions would have to occur within a context that would map exactly onto here. Any rational moderator does not base their decisions so much off performance on other boards, especially when it's not even a messageboard they're operating. Two different media. I have openly said I despise all active Transformers boards for their level of authoritarianism, yet level of tolerance towards the pushing of certain viewpoints.

::: Not to mention that you're still operating under the fallacy of Appeal to Majority - that alone means I shouldn't really even have to counter you.

Again, any rational moderator would warn several times before a ban, I personally reversed that edit even though it was obviously intended to be a joke as anyone reading this knows what pile'o'bile already is. You have no justification for what you did, but your ego is too big to realise you can actually do wrong with your power. You'll never admit it, but I wouldn't be surprised if some part of you is pissed that I defeated some of your ramblings, whether they were directly written by you or encouraged by you, it's still the kind of guff you normally blew, and I managed to defeat it. You, and the mods of the big sites will always have your ban buttons - but you will NEVER be able to justify your actions to me. That's how I know that I'm in the right, at least in situations like this - solidly backed justification is almost always absent.

==Something I Noticed==

I see that when new users come in - I did this too - one of the first things they start to do is edit out the silly captions and some of the humor from the Wiki. This is mostly stemming from the transition from Wikipedia and other Wikis to Teletraan-1, since most others have strict no-humor. Is there a way to put up some sort of banner in the "Help Contents" guide, that explains, look, we're silly here sometimes?

And, um, that guy below is just funny as hell. [[User:Mirai Gen|Mirai Gen]] 19:36, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

==Things to say to you==
[[Image:Ttoc.GIF|right|thumb|We approve this message.]]

Just some thing I've been wanting to say to David...

First off, you're a monumental asshole. You have an ego the size of a small planet and it's irritating watching you act like an important SOB when you're basically just a nobody.

Second, your webcomics aren't funny. They're boring tripe that makes Penny Arcade look good(and believe me, Penny Arcade is garbage). Cyanide and Happiness is a funny webcomic, yours is not. Your "jokes" are painful, about like watching Michael Richards yell the n-word as a routine. You don't draw a comic, you draw an opinionated blog. I'm not sure which name suits your crap better, "ShitPacked" or "ShortDicked".

Your liberalism and your love of Indiana get on my nerves. You jab at Mallard Filmore? Yeah, one shitty comic making fun of another shitty comic. Or are you just pissed that his gets in newspapers while you're JUST a webcomic? As to Indiana, I live here, and if it were up to me, the state would be walled off and none of the freaks living there allowed to interact with the rest of the planet. The state is about 3 decades behind the times. But something tells me even you know this otherwise you'd still live here. I sure as hell do not live here by choice and as soon as I can, I'm moving far away from this joke of a state.

And your brand loyalty is typical fandom crap. You have Aaron Archer's rod so far down your throat it's unreal. And Aryan fucktard Michael Bay's rod has apparently joined it. I'd say soemthing abotu Don Murphy but he was born without one. Actually, I can say something- he's Kevin "unfunny asshole" Smith with more body fat. Hasbro didn't give the film to a competent director, just a cheap one. And neither Speilberg or ILM have done anything useful in years. Give WETA, or even Tom Savini a chance and we wouldn't be getting Bionicle bots. You're afraid to not like a Hasbro product. No wonder they don't have to go out of the way to please the "fans"- you'll accept it no matter what. But hey, you personally have been sucking off incompetent British bonehead Simon Furman and his shitty stories for years. There are no gods in Transformers. Unicron was built by a monkey, little man. Furman is dog shit.

And go figure this TF wiki is a joke full of misinformation, insults or outright lies- you're a mod here. You're never right. You're more of an incorrect pompous jerkoff than Defunct is. Right, ban me from editing, as if it would somehow matter, any info you don't agree with is pulled. You only have friends because people feel sorry for you. Me, I have no need. People are a commodity to be used and their wants only get in the way of what I'm out for. Use them and drop them.

== I thought it was vandalism ==

Just that I read the article and thought it was vandalism from the way it was written. So I accidently reverted it to the old one, which had more of something that seemed like vanderism. Then I realize I am not in wikipeida, but in Transformers wiki. I clicked on a link from Tformers.com and since the two sites look so damn similar, yeah......That explains the humor and why I had to make an account here. Sorry, but I am wishy washy at the moment since I have a term paper due soon and haven't gotten any sleep. Sorry. LOL--[[User:Doomzaber|Doomzaber]] 03:14, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

...RUN, HE'S GONE MAD WITH POWER!

I know Bodycount was being antagonistic about his changes (not just on the Nemesis Prime entry), but I think blocking him for 2 weeks may have been excessive. We should try to settle editorial conflicts through compromise, like they do at Wikipedia, by rewriting the article to express both points of view and the reasoning behind those views. On the other hand, I
have no idea who he is, aside from a vague feeling that he's an Allsparker. You may be more familiar with his habits than I. Maybe he's likely to just be disruptive. But from what I have seen just here at this site, I think the block was premature. --[[User:Steve-o|Steve-o]] 17:42, 13 April 2006 (UTC)

== Episode Template Comments ==

Hi ItsWalky. Thanks loads for your feedback. Sorry about the date thing. As for the loss of data between the two templates, reordering each of the groups for order of appearance shouldn't be too difficult, just means watching the episode carefully again (unfortunately, when I did the lists of characters for my own TF site, I didn't consider having them in order of appearance and thus alphabetized them right away). With regards to the difference between major and minor characters, I'm not sure I would quite know where to draw the line on who's what in every TF episode. To me, it would seem to depend if the character was regular, is he major or minor for the whole series, season, or just the episode, or if the character was a guest, I could see it likely being just the episode. Perhaps if I knew what guidline Teletraan-1 was using to determine Major/Minor status, I could think of a way to incorporate it into my template. Thanks again for your feedback. [[User:Telet093|Telet093]] 00:35, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

== A Question on Mini-Con Entries ==
As I'm hitting the "random page" button, I seem to come up with a Mini-Con page for this or that Mini-Con most of the time. Is there any reason every Mini-Con has its own page? Could they be consolidated on to their respective team pages? This may be a community issue, but I figured an editor the best place to start.--[[User:MCRG|MCRG]] 08:43, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
: All the ones in Armada and Cybertron, at least, have their own bios and personalities, so that should be enough for a page. I think, in principle, every toyed character should have its own page, whether it be a Nebulan, Mini-Con, Deployer, or what have you. I tend to only use the "Related characters" subsection for fiction-only humans and the like. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 15:24, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

==Question Time Again==
Would it be possible to consolidate the pages such as [[quartex]] and [[cycle]] and whatever else is floating about into just a single "Cybertronian Units of Time" page of some sort? I had no idea a "quartex" existed until I randomly hit the [[Conductors]] page, for instance, but having them all in one place might be helpful, or possibly to rename the page into "Measurements of time" and split off [[Megamile]]?--[[User:MCRG|MCRG]] 05:59, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

: Well, in Airazor's case, we just had to fill in more summary. She was missing some key episodes, which filled in more text between the two images.

== CSS change ==

Hey Walky, I'm requesting a change to the sitewide CSS that you can see at [[MediaWiki_talk:Monobook.css]]

It's Wikipedia's pretty able classes. Wikia (buizarely) comes with ''no'' table classes. We dont' use tables much here, but should we want to, we'd want them to look like this. (And this is the class all the wikipedia-how-to-create-a-table tutorials tell you to use.) The code is unaltered from Wikipedia, so it won't conflict with anything.

Appreciate it if you could port it over for me.-[[User:Derik|Derik]] 01:31, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

== Scale question ==
Hi there, this is PacifistPrime, the originator of the new [[Scale]] article. Thanks very much for your contributions. Just one question though; you've changed some of the estimated "real world" heights for characters like Prime and Bumblebee, stating that they "have been calculated". I don't mean to disagree with you ''per se'' (although I must admit your figures do instinctively strike me as unlikely, but that's just my guestimate), but I was wondering if you could please source those figures. Not so much in the article itself (believe me, I'm very sick of the bluenoses over at Wikipedia always being on peoples' case about that), but rather just for my own personal interest. I've actually wanted for some time now to set up a project that would use the toys and specs for the real vehicles to calculate how big most of the pre-Movie G1s would be. But if someone has already done this, I'd love to know their results, and I'd be particularly interested in their method. Can you give me some directions? Please respond in my own talk page, if you don't mind. Hope to hear from you, [[User:PacifistPrime|PacifistPrime]].
:[http://groups.google.com/group/alt.toys.transformers/msg/6db411e03e75a342?dmode=source LV once figured it out using real vehicle lengths and stuff.]
:Also, a trend in the article seems to be overunderestimating the size of the Transformers in the cartoon, for example, saying that Optimus Prime would "only" be 20 feet tall, versus the giant size you believe he is. We've got lots of model sheets available to us that show that Optimus Prime was drawn to be 15-ish feet, or 3 Spikes tall. Now, the comic tended to draw the Transformers much, much larger than that, but in the cartoon, they were kinda dinky, though that's of course not incredibly consistent. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 15:39, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

I'm wanting to start writing an article for ''The Enemy Within'', but there is one slight problem. My scans of the issue (saved from Seibertron and TCA before the comic scans were taken down) are missing pages 9 and 10 (the last two color pages) from part 2, and from what I've been able to dig up from the Wayback Machine, the scans used on the various sites never had those two pages (or a few from ''The Man Of Iron'' UK printing, and page 8 from UK #6).

== Just Sayin' Hi ==

Ok, this is embarassing.

I've been on the TFWiki a while now, and on a lot of discussion pages I've posted on, you're the first or second person to answer a question or comment on my post.

I also read Shortpacked and didn't know you were... well, you.

It was seemingly at random I clicked on your link to see your page and, lo and behold, you're the reason for so much joy and pain, the grand well of Transformers knowledge, the de facto LEGENDARY user who knows how many punctuation marks are in the title of seemingly random comics... from EUROPE.

I simply want to say that it's an honor for me to be able to collaborate with you on this project. Transformers has always been a big part of my childhood, and now my adulthood. I'm starting up the UniCronicles (see my page for more details) and yours, along with several other webcomics I read, have inspired me. I thank you for Shortpacked, your contribution to Teletraan I, and, of course, for making fun of that ditzy purple skank. I mean, am I the only one who noticed she was like 3 million years the senior of most of the ''Cybertron'' cast? Granny's got her freak on.

== Please remove (or at least justify) block ==
Um,
Excuse me, but... what the heck? (Block ID #49)

Why on earth have you blocked me? VANDALISM? Are you kidding?!?

Is this about the two snarky little comments spilled over from the Movie-G1-IDW categorisation micro-debate? i.e., the ones that were already deleated from the Movie pages well over a week ago and are thus no longer an issue at all? Have you seriously blocked me over that? Good lord...

Okay, maybe those TWO very SMALL comments were SLIGHTLY out of order, but to call it
vandalism...! This isn't Wikipedia, mate. If you wanna start policing sarcastic
comments and POV material then you've got a loooong task ahead of you on this
site, don't you think? Blocking me for those comments hardly seems rational.

That you wanted to delete them? Fine. But to BLOCK me for it? C'mon; get real.

I am a comparatively new user, but one in good standing who has contributed several articles and is polite in all discussions at every turn, far more so than some other users here that I've observed. I've noticed that on more than one occasion you have had somewhat grumpy reactions to things I have to say, so I'm more than a little suspicious that this block isn't some kind of vindictive action on your part, as you seemingly have some kind of problem with me, although I can't imagine on what basis.

This block is clearly absurd, and not at all in the spirit of fun and good
humour I've come to love about this site. I don't see how you can reasonably justify this action, and I am also complaining about this to your fellow adminstrator.

Yours indignantly, [[User:PacifistPrime|PacifistPrime]].

==BANNED==

What the hell did I do to warrant a ban, exactly? As far as I'm aware, I don't even think I broke any rules, and if I did, an official warning would be appropriate. I received no such warning. I was not here for trolling and you know that - you use that bullshit excuse to get people to ignore arguments you can't handle. But you, personally, who made this decision, know I'm not a troll.

This is fucking low. I had little enough respect for you down to your ranting against the fanbase, Willis, but this is a whole new level of buggery. If you're going to use your comic to rant against and discredit people you don't like, the least you can do is suck it up when people rant at you back, and not act like a control-freak child.

I really don't think you're aware of your own actions anymore.
*Do the words [[Wikipedia:WP:NPA|no personal attacks]] mean anything to you? -- [[User:SFH|SFH]] 00:18, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
:: Do the words "warning before ban mean anything to you".

::I really find it hard to believe that you think it's completely on a rational level of discourse to claim that the comic strip I draw is about child pornography. If I'm not mistaken about your identity, you've been banned from almost every single Transformers web board you've had an acquaintance with, and I'm only doing this place a favor by getting rid of you. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 00:22, 4 August 2007 (UTC)

::: That's not an excuse. I will openly admit I HAVE been banned from several forums, but only because I repeatedly opposed the staff on each and every one of them; and with good cause, they all have roughly the same problem. People bully others either into liking the movie or to agree with the kind of views you promote - and since nobody can directly attack or discredit anyone, these people(and you are) are left to their methods.
For your current decision to be validated, the admins of those boards, boards which are influenced in turn by your anti-fan attitude, would have to be 100% correct. Any rational moderator does not base their decisions off performance on other boards, especially when it's not even a messageboard they're operating. Two different media. I have openly said I despise all active Transformers boards for their level of authoritarianism, yet level of tolerance towards the pushing of certain viewpoints.
Apparently, we both have personal vendettas against each other. Only mine is for a good reason - yours is because you can't take the heat.

::: Not to mention that you're still operating under the fallacy of Appeal to Majority - that alone means I shouldn't really even have to counter you.

::: And don't even use the "CHILD PORNOGRAPHY" thing as an excuse. Again, any rational moderator would warn several times before a ban, I personally reversed that edit even though it was obviously intended to be a joke as anyone reading this knows what pile'o'bile already is. You have no justification for what you did, but your ego is too big to realise you can actually do wrong with your power.<div id="wikia-credits"><br /><br /><small>From [http://transformers.wikia.com Teletraan I: The Transformers Wiki], a [http://www.wikia.com Wikia] wiki.</small></div>

That IP address was me. I figured since you have this entry just ''dripping'' with snark including "Bayformers", it should include the inexplicable fan belief that early G1 had more realistic representations of extraterrestrial robots, even though the toy engineers made them to look like the human-built piloted mecha they were in their original toy lines. -[[User:Rotty|Rotty]] 18:30, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

:Oooh. Your edit didn't say anything about extraterrestrials, so, I totally didn't know where you were going. I personally prefer the line more brief, without bringing that part in, but, I don't feel real strongly about it. If you put it back in I might edit the phrasing to make it more to my liking, though. :) --[[User:Steve-o|Steve-o]] 19:07, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

I ''know'' that someone from Hasbro (Whatshername, the exec who used to work for Power Rangers?) mentioned at some point that they estimate that X% of Transformers toys are bought by adult collectors- and I ''think'' it was 20. That should probably be in here.

I admit, I find the tone of this article unnecessarily harsh. I'd like to see it either moderated, or to have [[Fans]] and [[Fandom]] made two separate articles, with most of the negative aspects assigned to fandom. (Which I think is a fair division of blame- you still hear stories of hardcore transfans who run into the occasional hardcore solo-fan who has no clue about the 'net, conventions etc. The ''really'' nasty negative aspects of fans are almost all ''group behaviors'' that feed on themselves and doesn't exist in individuals if a fan is removed from fandom.)

...oh my god, I just articulated a [[Wikipedia:Romanticism|romantacist]] belief in the fundamental goodness of humanity and the corrupting influence of society on individuals. '''KILL ME NOW! DO IT BEFORE I SPREAD PEACE AND LOVE ALL OVER THE WIKI!''' -[[User:Derik|Derik]] 20:54, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

I'm okay with the link. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 03:36, 13 July 2007 (UTC)

I admit to being a little surprised at the negative reactions, as this is all stuff that's already written in various places on this wiki. Still, I recognize that if my only supporter is an anonymous string of numbers, I apparently just have a weird opinion on it. I just talked to Walky about it and he said the sarcastic "accomplishments"list could maybe be preserved if it were just a small part of a large, otherwise focusing-on-the-positive article. That sounds okay to me... I'd kind of like to keep at least ''some'' of the list in there, but, again, I seemingly have no perception of how vicious what I wrote is, so maybe it should be totally scrapped. For now I'll call shenanigans on myself while we decide what to do. --[[User:Steve-o|Steve-o]] 03:54, 13 July 2007 (UTC)

This whole page sounds like another one of Walky's idiotic rants against the fandom. Snore. Why don't people make fun of the anti-fans like Walky more often, when the things they say and do are far more ridiculous as they can't be defended by "Well, he's a crazy fan"? {{unsigned|210.49.121.202}}

:The page should never have existed anyway, and since there's no justification for removing this anonymous crybaby's sixth-grade ranting about how the smart kids don't like him without removing the part making fun of the shit-for-brains who make up the loudest part of this and every fandom, I agree that it should be minimized or removed.

As absolutely ''fucking hilarious'' as the page just became, I agree with the above notions. We either need to delete the whole schebang (frankly, I never found the page to really be necessary at all to begin with) or, as Kil notes, take the route of making it a "hub" page for the big fan-stuff turned "official", with a note about its GENERAL history (starting on USENET, move to messageboards, MUSHes, etc). --[[User:M Sipher|M Sipher]] 18:46, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

::: I'd rather we leave it exactly as it is, with both arguments. However, there shouldn't be an artificial argument here. The person with the most convincing argument should be allowed to have it shine if it really is more convincing.

::: And I honestly believe there is just much more "shit" on the fan-haters than the fans themselves. They really are a joke.

::: I don't mean it to be too horribly mean since a lot of my friends do engage in some of the things I list, but considering what I was responding to, and the level of bullying in the community, I really did feel a no-holds barred rebuttal was necessary. There is already enough of this rubbish within the fandom itself, if this place is so seperate it should know better. The most ridiculous thing about the fandom is without about those within it who are bitter, horrid and vicious in their criticism of their fellow fans. No amount of complaining about Michael Bay or Bumblebee not being a VW can ever compete with that, and it's about time the fandom started realising it.

::: I genuinely feel that some people have gone much too far, and don't realise or don't care about the damage they're doing on the community. Boards like TFW2005 and Allspark are far too strict for there ever to be any kind of "Uprising". If there is to be any kind of opposition, or at least equal footing with these people, it needs to be here, where it's lax. I do have little reason to respect people like Walky as long as they continue to mock and spread bile about me and people who share my views directly and indirectly through their "humour" or message board posts.

::: I will consider removing some of the harsher ones, like the one about people liking the movie. I actually quite liked the movie but I was bothered by the scrap-heap designs and poor script and humour. It just really bothers me that something that's objectively not the greatest thing ever is pushed on people in the manner that it is throughout the fandom. I remain adamant that a lot of the support of the movie within the fanbase is down to hype and peer pressure.{{unsigned|159.134.163.42}}
*You're a very angry man who doesn't seem to realize that the article was intended to be one giant ''joke'' where we mock our own fanboyishness (word?). Seek help. -- [[User:SFH|SFH]] 18:47, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
*I love the assumption that people who pour their time and energy into the wiki aren't fans, but people whose only interest is to scream and whine until they get banned from the big message boards (and I don't know who this guy is, but COME ON) are the real fans.

: Hold on, why is the other "joke" acceptable and not mine? Mine is much more "Jokey" in tone. You mean "seek help" because I fail to conform to your side of the supposed "humour". I've found in my experience on sites like ED that these kind of articles are often a lot more genuine than they seem, with some light tone tacked on so they can get away with it on the grounds of parody. You're not mocking yourselves - people like Walky, Sipher, while sometimes mocking themselves in different ways, set themselves out from the people they mock or "correct". There is a split between between "Fanboy" and "Anti-fan" which is very similiar to the supporters and detractors of the movie. This article is a result of that split - it's not fans making fun of themselves, it's fans making fun of other fans.{{unsigned|159.134.163.42}}

*That fact that you said a guy who wrote this was writting Child Pornoprophy set off a few alarms.

That's where you may need to seek help. -- [[User:SFH|SFH]] 18:53, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

* The Child Pornography thing was a joke, since "Shortpacked" sounds like a euphanism(fudge packing, children are short, whatever). It was just something I dropped in to show that what I'd written was somewhat tounge in cheek, and also to dislodge the idea that Shortpacked itself should be taken as the accurate, witty observational humour some people make it out to be.. I can always change that, but I doubt enough children use this Wiki to notice. Not that you care - your recent actions prove you're biased as hell with no respect for decent argument or opposition. {{unsigned|159.134.163.42}}

Okay, seriously, Walky, stop it. It isn't funny anymore to pretend to be a complete idiot who compares your comic to child porn.

Okay, maybe its a little funny, but its irritating that it needs clean up so often. -{{unsigned|Chiasaur11}}

==Okay seriously, what to do with this page?==

Since the above section was derailed, let's get down to it. What should this article be?

As funny as I think the venting was, I just don't think it benefits the wiki as a whole. I think we'd be better off with a more neutral opening paragraph, a link to [[Transformers timeline]], the existing link to the Fandom category, and nothing else.

I further think that while adding/restoring the funny to this article should be encouragedn any vandalism to support a particular viewpoint (which the original article didn't even do) should be bannable. Same goes for anyone who wants to spam us about their awesome message board which is totally the hub of all TF fandom. [[User:Chip|Chip]] 19:18, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

Okay, sounds reasonable so-far, with maybe a warning first. Still doesn't solve the central argument. [[User:chiasaur11|chiasaur11]] 12:21, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

Wow. Is this what the thoughts of someone with Asperger's sound like? One that really gets me is "You are the dirt beneath Aaron Archer's feat. (sic)" Have you ever been to a [[BotCon]]? I just can't imagine how a fan could have ever spoken to someone like Archer or [[Greg Lombardo]] - as a human being, not as a Santa Claus machine to request future gifts from - and have seething hatred like this. They're hard-working, creative people who go to work in the morning trying to make the most fun, highest-quality lines possible. Then anywhere from nine months to a well over a year before their upcoming work hits and has a chance to win over kids and general audiences, the fans start ripping into it with full vitriol on the basis of the earliest images and, year after year, build up snarling personal loathing for them individually. Nothing makes you look worse than heaping hatred on living, breathing people because they didn't put out the exact toys you want. -[[User:Rotty|Rotty]] 19:22, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

:: Rotty, you have no sense of humour. And remember, sense of humour isn't just what you find funny but also how much leeway you're willing to give other people's attempts at being so. There is no hatred directed towards Mr. Archer here. It's meant to be a parody of the way in which some people make it out like fans shouldn't matter in the least when it comes to how Hasbro(or Paramount) do things. It is pretty obvious to anyone that understands the terminology. Of course Mr. Archer does not treat people like that, it's part of the absurdity. And please do not keep reverting my contributions. It's just getting very immature.

:: Quite frankly I'm disgusted that some people keep trying to revert this before it's been properly discussed. It's already been established that if you remove my rot, you have to remove the original rot too. At least mine is much better planned out rot, yet it's still cast as the bad rot because it goes against the current mentality of this place. I am also not fond of Sipher calling my contribution "dumber", but since he was one of the guys I was rallying against it's not surprising he'd do that instead of defending himself properly. {{unsigned|159.134.163.42}}

Hello, I'd just like to point out that I, Anon, was banned by your lord and master, It's walky. I recieved no official warning of any rule breaking. I know a few of you will rejoice, but you're morons who get off people you don't like getting banned, so I don't care and hope you hit yourselves in the face with a frying pan very hard until you knock some sense into your whacky brains.

The few of you who actually still consider fascism to be a bad thing, however, should be suitably disgusted at Walky's immature power trip. It just justifies all the ranting I did against him - and more. The guy can't handle opposition.

Again, as far as I'm aware, I haven't done anything wrong even by the ridiculous standards most internet institutions have, except piss off a few ingrates which would be pretty ridiculous to moderate against.

Either way, even if I did, I recieved no warning. It's an unwritten rule online, even in the fascist cesspits of TFW2005, that you do not ban someone for a first strike. Otherwise, you're a Totalitarian.<div id="wikia-credits"><br /><br /><small>From [http://transformers.wikia.com Teletraan I: The Transformers Wiki], a [http://www.wikia.com Wikia] wiki.</small></div>

==Something I Noticed==

I see that when new users come in - I did this too - one of the first things they start to do is edit out the silly captions and some of the humor from the Wiki. This is mostly stemming from the transition from Wikipedia and other Wikis to Teletraan-1, since most others have strict no-humor. Is there a way to put up some sort of banner in the "Help Contents" guide, that explains, look, we're silly here sometimes?

==Things to say to you==
[[Image:Ttoc.GIF|right|thumb|We approve this message.]]

Just some thing I've been wanting to say to David...

First off, you're a monumental asshole. You have an ego the size of a small planet and it's irritating watching you act like an important SOB when you're basically just a nobody.

Second, your webcomics aren't funny. They're boring tripe that makes Penny Arcade look good(and believe me, Penny Arcade is garbage). Cyanide and Happiness is a funny webcomic, yours is not. Your "jokes" are painful, about like watching Michael Richards yell the n-word as a routine. You don't draw a comic, you draw an opinionated blog. I'm not sure which name suits your crap better, "ShitPacked" or "ShortDicked".

Your liberalism and your love of Indiana get on my nerves. You jab at Mallard Filmore? Yeah, one shitty comic making fun of another shitty comic. Or are you just pissed that his gets in newspapers while you're JUST a webcomic? As to Indiana, I live here, and if it were up to me, the state would be walled off and none of the freaks living there allowed to interact with the rest of the planet. The state is about 3 decades behind the times. But something tells me even you know this otherwise you'd still live here. I sure as hell do not live here by choice and as soon as I can, I'm moving far away from this joke of a state.

And your brand loyalty is typical fandom crap. You have Aaron Archer's rod so far down your throat it's unreal. And Aryan fucktard Michael Bay's rod has apparently joined it. I'd say soemthing abotu Don Murphy but he was born without one. Actually, I can say something- he's Kevin "unfunny asshole" Smith with more body fat. Hasbro didn't give the film to a competent director, just a cheap one. And neither Speilberg or ILM have done anything useful in years. Give WETA, or even Tom Savini a chance and we wouldn't be getting Bionicle bots. You're afraid to not like a Hasbro product. No wonder they don't have to go out of the way to please the "fans"- you'll accept it no matter what. But hey, you personally have been sucking off incompetent British bonehead Simon Furman and his shitty stories for years. There are no gods in Transformers. Unicron was built by a monkey, little man. Furman is dog shit.

And go figure this TF wiki is a joke full of misinformation, insults or outright lies- you're a mod here. You're never right. You're more of an incorrect pompous jerkoff than Defunct is. Right, ban me from editing, as if it would somehow matter, any info you don't agree with is pulled. You only have friends because people feel sorry for you. Me, I have no need. People are a commodity to be used and their wants only get in the way of what I'm out for. Use them and drop them.

Who am I? Go look who added a note about you on Encyclopedia Dramatica's Allspark page if you're not too lazy. As well as past AS, Kalidor, FIRRIB and Hooks entries(the hooks entry especially true). Oh, and just info on white people in general and that idiotic Nintendo Wii. I'm not making it that easy for you.

== I thought it was vandalism ==

Just that I read the article and thought it was vandalism from the way it was written. So I accidently reverted it to the old one, which had more of something that seemed like vanderism. Then I realize I am not in wikipeida, but in Transformers wiki. I clicked on a link from Tformers.com and since the two sites look so damn similar, yeah......That explains the humor and why I had to make an account here. Sorry, but I am wishy washy at the moment since I have a term paper due soon and haven't gotten any sleep. Sorry. LOL--[[User:Doomzaber|Doomzaber]] 03:14, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

...RUN, HE'S GONE MAD WITH POWER!

I know Bodycount was being antagonistic about his changes (not just on the Nemesis Prime entry), but I think blocking him for 2 weeks may have been excessive. We should try to settle editorial conflicts through compromise, like they do at Wikipedia, by rewriting the article to express both points of view and the reasoning behind those views. On the other hand, I
have no idea who he is, aside from a vague feeling that he's an Allsparker. You may be more familiar with his habits than I. Maybe he's likely to just be disruptive. But from what I have seen just here at this site, I think the block was premature. --[[User:Steve-o|Steve-o]] 17:42, 13 April 2006 (UTC)

== Episode Template Comments ==

Hi ItsWalky. Thanks loads for your feedback. Sorry about the date thing. As for the loss of data between the two templates, reordering each of the groups for order of appearance shouldn't be too difficult, just means watching the episode carefully again (unfortunately, when I did the lists of characters for my own TF site, I didn't consider having them in order of appearance and thus alphabetized them right away). With regards to the difference between major and minor characters, I'm not sure I would quite know where to draw the line on who's what in every TF episode. To me, it would seem to depend if the character was regular, is he major or minor for the whole series, season, or just the episode, or if the character was a guest, I could see it likely being just the episode. Perhaps if I knew what guidline Teletraan-1 was using to determine Major/Minor status, I could think of a way to incorporate it into my template. Thanks again for your feedback. [[User:Telet093|Telet093]] 00:35, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

== A Question on Mini-Con Entries ==
As I'm hitting the "random page" button, I seem to come up with a Mini-Con page for this or that Mini-Con most of the time. Is there any reason every Mini-Con has its own page? Could they be consolidated on to their respective team pages? This may be a community issue, but I figured an editor the best place to start.--[[User:MCRG|MCRG]] 08:43, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
: All the ones in Armada and Cybertron, at least, have their own bios and personalities, so that should be enough for a page. I think, in principle, every toyed character should have its own page, whether it be a Nebulan, Mini-Con, Deployer, or what have you. I tend to only use the "Related characters" subsection for fiction-only humans and the like. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 15:24, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

==Question Time Again==
Would it be possible to consolidate the pages such as [[quartex]] and [[cycle]] and whatever else is floating about into just a single "Cybertronian Units of Time" page of some sort? I had no idea a "quartex" existed until I randomly hit the [[Conductors]] page, for instance, but having them all in one place might be helpful, or possibly to rename the page into "Measurements of time" and split off [[Megamile]]?--[[User:MCRG|MCRG]] 05:59, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

I have a wide screen resolution (1280x800), and often times images that are on the same side will start to stack up if there aren't enough lines of text between them, kind of like this:

: Well, in Airazor's case, we just had to fill in more summary. She was missing some key episodes, which filled in more text between the two images.

== CSS change ==

Hey Walky, I'm requesting a change to the sitewide CSS that you can see at [[MediaWiki_talk:Monobook.css]]

It's Wikipedia's pretty able classes. Wikia (buizarely) comes with ''no'' table classes. We dont' use tables much here, but should we want to, we'd want them to look like this. (And this is the class all the wikipedia-how-to-create-a-table tutorials tell you to use.) The code is unaltered from Wikipedia, so it won't conflict with anything.

Appreciate it if you could port it over for me.-[[User:Derik|Derik]] 01:31, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

== Scale question ==
Hi there, this is PacifistPrime, the originator of the new [[Scale]] article. Thanks very much for your contributions. Just one question though; you've changed some of the estimated "real world" heights for characters like Prime and Bumblebee, stating that they "have been calculated". I don't mean to disagree with you ''per se'' (although I must admit your figures do instinctively strike me as unlikely, but that's just my guestimate), but I was wondering if you could please source those figures. Not so much in the article itself (believe me, I'm very sick of the bluenoses over at Wikipedia always being on peoples' case about that), but rather just for my own personal interest. I've actually wanted for some time now to set up a project that would use the toys and specs for the real vehicles to calculate how big most of the pre-Movie G1s would be. But if someone has already done this, I'd love to know their results, and I'd be particularly interested in their method. Can you give me some directions? Please respond in my own talk page, if you don't mind. Hope to hear from you, [[User:PacifistPrime|PacifistPrime]].
:[http://groups.google.com/group/alt.toys.transformers/msg/6db411e03e75a342?dmode=source LV once figured it out using real vehicle lengths and stuff.]
:Also, a trend in the article seems to be overunderestimating the size of the Transformers in the cartoon, for example, saying that Optimus Prime would "only" be 20 feet tall, versus the giant size you believe he is. We've got lots of model sheets available to us that show that Optimus Prime was drawn to be 15-ish feet, or 3 Spikes tall. Now, the comic tended to draw the Transformers much, much larger than that, but in the cartoon, they were kinda dinky, though that's of course not incredibly consistent. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 15:39, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

I'm wanting to start writing an article for ''The Enemy Within'', but there is one slight problem. My scans of the issue (saved from Seibertron and TCA before the comic scans were taken down) are missing pages 9 and 10 (the last two color pages) from part 2, and from what I've been able to dig up from the Wayback Machine, the scans used on the various sites never had those two pages (or a few from ''The Man Of Iron'' UK printing, and page 8 from UK #6).

== Just Sayin' Hi ==

Ok, this is embarassing.

I've been on the TFWiki a while now, and on a lot of discussion pages I've posted on, you're the first or second person to answer a question or comment on my post.

I also read Shortpacked and didn't know you were... well, you.

It was seemingly at random I clicked on your link to see your page and, lo and behold, you're the reason for so much joy and pain, the grand well of Transformers knowledge, the de facto LEGENDARY user who knows how many punctuation marks are in the title of seemingly random comics... from EUROPE.

I simply want to say that it's an honor for me to be able to collaborate with you on this project. Transformers has always been a big part of my childhood, and now my adulthood. I'm starting up the UniCronicles (see my page for more details) and yours, along with several other webcomics I read, have inspired me. I thank you for Shortpacked, your contribution to Teletraan I, and, of course, for making fun of that ditzy purple skank. I mean, am I the only one who noticed she was like 3 million years the senior of most of the ''Cybertron'' cast? Granny's got her freak on.

Okay, maybe those TWO very SMALL comments were SLIGHTLY out of order, but to call it
vandalism...! This isn't Wikipedia, mate. If you wanna start policing sarcastic
comments and POV material then you've got a loooong task ahead of you on this
site, don't you think? Blocking me for those comments hardly seems rational.

That you wanted to delete them? Fine. But to BLOCK me for it? C'mon; get real.

I am a comparatively new user, but one in good standing who has contributed several articles and is polite in all discussions at every turn, far more so than some other users here that I've observed. I've noticed that on more than one occasion you have had somewhat grumpy reactions to things I have to say, so I'm more than a little suspicious that this block isn't some kind of vindictive action on your part, as you seemingly have some kind of problem with me, although I can't imagine on what basis.

This block is clearly absurd, and not at all in the spirit of fun and good
humour I've come to love about this site. I don't see how you can reasonably justify this action, and I am also complaining about this to your fellow adminstrator.

Yours indignantly, [[User:PacifistPrime|PacifistPrime]].
: For your information, I banned you right BEFORE I deleted your vandalism. It wasn't a week-later thing, no. And, yes, if you're going to end a long Talk Page discussion in which you were overwhelmingly outvoted by editing '''the articles themselves''' with retaliatory comments, then, yes, that's vandalism. Certainly, if that's going to be the nature of your contributions here, then you don't belong. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 01:29, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

::With all due respect this is a massive overraction. I'm prepared to apologise to anyone you want me to, but you seem to be attributing all kinds of deviant, troublemaking behaviour to me that is simply NOT truthfully accurate. Don't take my word for it: please look at my history of contribution and discussion with other users. I've always been scrupulously polite and have never gotten into an edit war with anyone.

::So, Okay, yes, if you really want me to say it: I DID A BAD THING. I'm sorry. Don't you guys have some kind of strike system? To permanently ban me over this small piece of sarcasm really seems excessive, don't you think?

::[[User:PacifistPrime|PacifistPrime]].
:::You're not permanently banned! Steve-o says it was for three months, but I don't think I would have done it for that long on purpose. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 04:00, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
::::Stereo is annoying. Can we pick a talk page and stick with it? (I nominate this one.) -[[User:Derik|Derik]] 04:02, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
:::::Regardless, I've unblocked you for the three months and reblocked you for an additional week starting today, as I intended to block for two weeks. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 04:03, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

Sorry, dude. You seem to be a step ahead of me. I'm not trying to foul you up. Please feel free to delete my erroneous edits. I was trying to say that G2 Breakdown (the AM) was unofficial. Just hadn't gotten to it yet!--[[User:G.B. Blackrock|G.B. Blackrock]] 03:22, 26 May 2007 (UTC)

== DS Pics ==
Question for you since you've got the Autobots DS card- Does it have the USS Seaspray docked in Tranquility's harbor in the Autobots version?--[[User:MCRG|MCRG]] 03:32, 24 June 2007 (UTC)
: Yeah! Heh. I didn't notice that, but I see the name now. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 03:45, 24 June 2007 (UTC)

==Bobby Bolivia Trivia==
Wow, you're right. I totally misinterpreted that. To be fair (shift blame) the same bit of trivia on Bumblebee's page wasn't as clear at the time it was written. So..um.. yeah. But you know, now that it's evident that they kinda paid exactly what it was worth, I fail to see how that bit of trivia is even relevant to the article now.
It should probably just go altogether. [[User:Atomic spaceman|Atomic spaceman]] 14:33, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

==Fandom page==
Listen, hate to bother you, but there is ''massive'' edit war going on at [[Fandom]]. Could you please just semi-protect (or totally protect) the page while people try to figue out what to do? -- [[User:SFH|SFH]] 19:41, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

==BANNED==

What the hell did I do to warrant a ban, exactly? As far as I'm aware, I don't even think I broke any rules, and if I did, an official warning would be appropriate. I received no such warning. I was not here for trolling and you know that - you use that bullshit excuse to get people to ignore arguments you can't handle. But you, personally, who made this decision, know I'm not a troll.

This is fucking low. I had little enough respect for you down to your ranting against the fanbase, Willis, but this is a whole new level of buggery. If you're going to use your comic to rant against and discredit people you don't like, the least you can do is suck it up when people rant at you back, and not act like a control-freak child.

I really don't think you're aware of your own actions anymore.<div id="wikia-credits"><br /><br /><small>From [http://transformers.wikia.com Teletraan I: The Transformers Wiki], a [http://www.wikia.com Wikia] wiki.</small></div>
