Talk:Void
Much like the "Things that don't exist" category, I think this page should be left blank on principle. -King Starscream 14:50, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
I was going to link "Unicron" to his article, but, on the other hand, the fact that this page is on the "Dead-end pages" list is really kind of appropriate. JW 13:34, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
This is now a fucking awesome page. --M Sipher 01:54, 24 August 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks. Once the idea occurred to me, it was like... how could the page be anything else? - Jackpot 02:07, 24 August 2007 (UTC)
- ...Nevermind. This works better. -King Starscream 14:10, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
Oh wow. This page is so informative. It has opened by eyes up to the world. --OMG SLEDGE 23:30, 1 June 2008 (UTC)
I added more blank space... I think it's the longest page in the TF wikia now... and it's almost empty.
I nominate this for the featured article. Takeshi357 (talk) 16:50, 5 April 2015 (EDT)
Hey Interrobang
[edit]Why do you delete a little bit of negative space every two months? Are you stealing it for your own nefarious purposes? Don't lie. - Jackpot 21:50, 2 January 2008 (UTC)
- I'm not sure how that happened. All I did was add a category. I did preview the page without the break tag to see what would happen, but I didn't delete the space. Honest, guv'. —Interrobang 00:03, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
- It seems to be some weirdass function of the software. All I did was change one letter, and it removed a space without me touching it. —Interrobang 00:07, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
- For every space removed from Void, a character is added to Dead Universe. The Expansion is upon us!--RosicrucianTalk 01:35, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

- I told you not to lie, space-thief. Nevertheless, I see you've returned it, so things are set aright... for the moment. But believe me, I'll be keeping a close eye on conflated punctuation from now on. - Jackpot 01:37, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
- Life enroaches onto the void!
- (To answer your question, I made it so clicking on the image takes you to a sub-page, in case anyone ever gets a hankering to do an actual Void article.) -Derik 06:45, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

Someone fix the image so it links to Void (disambiguation) as it should
[edit]In the google cache, the image links to Void (disambiguation). I can't get it to do that. - SanityOrMadness 14:23, 27 March 2009 (EDT)
- Done. Betsumei 15:36, 29 March 2009 (EDT)
Transparency
[edit]How can we make the page go back to looking like a normal page? I get the idea, but I think the massive blue swath on the background ruins the gag. I've tried previewing it with no code except the image, and it still looks see-through. I have no idea where the code for this even is. - Jackpot 01:51, 28 March 2009 (EDT)
- Hello? Who made this happen? - Jackpot 22:16, 15 July 2009 (EDT)
- Er- I did. Not fond of the effect? -Derik 22:25, 15 July 2009 (EDT)
- Only because of the blue background. If we could still maintain the normal white background, it would be fine. But the joke is that it simulates the first page of The Void! (minus the narration-boxes), and having a giant blue swath in there is pretty darned un-Void-like. - Jackpot 22:44, 15 July 2009 (EDT)
- Yeah, so the point is, HOW DO I CHANGE IT BACK? Even clicking on the earliest link in the History does nothing. - Jackpot 17:13, 17 July 2009 (EDT)
- Since the blue background is a permanent part of the site's infrastructure, I'm not sure why going back in the history would fix the problem. It was a white background before because we had a site skin that was all white in the background. I think to fix this, we need to override the style sheet or whatever. --ItsWalky 18:47, 17 July 2009 (EDT)
- I thought that going back in the history would make it not be transparent anymore. That'll all I want to do. I don't understand why even having a conversation about the idea feels like pulling teeth. Am I typing Esperanto again? - Jackpot 19:22, 17 July 2009 (EDT)
- I'm saying I don't think it was ever opaque, dude. --ItsWalky 19:28, 17 July 2009 (EDT)
- Go to the history page, and click on the earliest link. Notice how the text runs right over the blue. Also notice how the title is grey, in the same way that the title and header-tabs are all grey currently. Derik did something that transcends history, and I want to undo it. I MUST undo it... for all our sakes. - Jackpot 19:38, 17 July 2009 (EDT)

I liked it better when it said "I Slumber" if you hovered your mouse over the image.
[edit]Can we make it do that again?Monty Prime 22:56, 9 May 2009 (EDT)

[edit]So, uh, the Void is one of the zodiac. But I'm not sure how to add it without breaking the joke. —Interrobang 16:18, 10 August 2011 (EDT)
- If I ruined the joke I'd feel very sad. Find a way!
- Hmmm.... maybe the disambiguation page? --Jimsorenson 16:59, 10 August 2011 (EDT)
I don't get it.
[edit]Is this supposed to be some kind of joke? Does this mean anything. I really don't know what this page is about. Not gonna lie, it kinda creaped me out the first time I saw it.-- Maximus Prime Toa of Earth (talk) 13:30, 23 September 2016 (EDT)
- The "creeping you out" part is the main purpose. Also to represent what Unicron's main goal is. --King Starscream (talk) 17:46, 16 October 2016 (EDT)
Mentions
[edit]In the 2021 annual comic, Thunderwing used the Void in an exclamation.
Also, pretty sure someone swore by the Void in the Netflix Earthrise season.--Primestar3 (talk) 10:14, 10 June 2021 (EDT)
