If you haven't yet contributed anything, we'd really rather you didn't simply change jokes or add new ones without adding actual content. This also holds true for removing captions whole-hog or replacing them with "information" that really isn't.

My Edit to Kup

My joke was better than "I don't even like ice cream!" That doesn't even make any sense when has Kup EVER had any conversation about ice cream? Never from what I can recall.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by AutobotKickshift (talkcontribs) 17:15, 3 October 2012.

The point is not whether your caption is "better," the point is that it's not your place to "improve" captions. Please stop edit-warring or I'll have to give you a time-out.--RosicrucianTalk 17:45, 3 October 2012 (EDT)
So even as a member I'm not allowed to contribute to previously written articles? even if, not in this case, the information is lacking or new information has been released? how is that fair?—The preceding unsigned comment was added by AutobotKickshift (talkcontribs) 19:53, 3 October 2012.
All you've done is edit war on an image caption. How is that contributing new information?--Carrion 19:56, 3 October 2012 (EDT)
I thought maybe readers would enjoy a joke more if they could actually GET IT. where did the ice cream joke even come from?—The preceding unsigned comment was added by AutobotKickshift (talkcontribs) 19:57, 3 October 2012.
The point is that all your contributions as a user here have been trying to change that caption, or arguing with other users about why you should be allowed to change that caption. We generally reserve the privilege of putting captions on things for people who have contributed. You might want to have a look at our policy page on that.--RosicrucianTalk 20:19, 3 October 2012 (EDT)
Ok I can respect that but I'd still like to know where that joke came from.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by AutobotKickshift (talkcontribs) 20:24, 3 October 2012 (EDT).
SirSpoonwave added it, so it's probably a Cow and Chicken reference. --abates 20:47, 3 October 2012 (EDT)
And as a general statement, please sign your posts. Use for tildes at the end of your message. -- spyderUse this! 20:57, 3 October 2012 (EDT)

- Not every picture without a caption needs one. -- spyderUse this! 18:25, 4 October 2012 (EDT)

So I have no right to give it one? Why not? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by AutobotKickshift (talkcontribs) 18:26, 4 October 2012 (EDT).
Because you haven't contributed any actual content yet. -- spyderUse this! 18:28, 4 October 2012 (EDT)
So I HAVE to contribute to something I don't want to contribute to and I can't to something I DO want to? What sense does that make?—The preceding unsigned comment was added by AutobotKickshift (talkcontribs) 18:29, 4 October 2012.
Seriously, it says it right there in the actual text of the warning box we keep putting on your page. It says it in excruciating detail in the policy page I told you to read. If you are only here to screw around with captions, then you're wasting your time and ours.--RosicrucianTalk 18:32, 4 October 2012 (EDT)
My god are ALL wikis this ridiculously strict? where is the concept of "FUN" or "ENTERTAINMENT" in a wiki about the TRANSFORMERS? Wikis are supposed to be informative as well as a fun community. So far all I've met are strict people who think anything I do needs to be undone. Is the other Transformers Wiki this mean? You're all stuck up! —The preceding unsigned comment was added by AutobotKickshift (talkcontribs) 18:47, 4 October 2012 (EDT).
Well if you keep doing the same thing, of course you're going to keep being told not to do it. --Detour 18:49, 4 October 2012 (EDT)
Jokes aren't content. They're the fun we get to have as a reward for actually contributing worthwhile effort. - Chris McFeely 18:50, 4 October 2012 (EDT)

User notices

Please do not remove them from your talkpage.--RosicrucianTalk 19:21, 4 October 2012 (EDT)

It's my talkpage and if I don't want to see them there then I won't let them remain there. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by AutobotKickshift (talkcontribs) 19:21, 4 October 2012.
That's not up to you to decide. Bobpiecheese 19:23, 4 October 2012 (EDT)
It's MY talkpage so YES it is. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by AutobotKickshift (talkcontribs) 19:24, 4 October 2012.
No, it isn't. See Transformers Wiki:User page. --Khajidha 19:27, 4 October 2012 (EDT)
Regardless. The captionbastards will continue to come down if they keep appearing. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by AutobotKickshift (talkcontribs) 19:28, 4 October 2012.
Did you read the page I linked for you? That behavior could get your talk page locked and you banned. --Khajidha 19:31, 4 October 2012 (EDT)
All websites have rules. There are a lot of reactions you can have when someone tells you the rules of a website - raging at everyone and repeatedly flouting the rules you've already been told about is not a reaction likely to make people like you. --abates 19:35, 4 October 2012 (EDT)

Fuck with this one, see what happens

You are doing one hell of a good job of getting yourself banned. -- spyderUse this! 19:34, 4 October 2012 (EDT)

Really?

First day back and you go straight for the captions?--RosicrucianTalk 01:17, 12 October 2012 (EDT)

Ok sorry...sheesh. But atleast I have been doing SOMETHING productive. Get off my back.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by AutobotKickshift (talkcontribs) 01:18, 12 October 2012.
Knock it off, or the next one's a month.--RosicrucianTalk 01:20, 12 October 2012 (EDT)
You don't gotta be such a nazi... I'm working on my page anyway. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by AutobotKickshift (talkcontribs) 01:21, 12 October 2012 (EDT).
We're not being Nazi's we are just enforcing the rules of the wiki. -- spyderUse this! 06:19, 12 October 2012 (EDT)
And speaking of enforcing rules... --Lonegamer78 02:49, 13 October 2012 (EDT)
I Got Yer Unsigned Post Right Here.

Please sign your posts to Talk pages. It's easy. Just type four tildes (~~~~), then click Show Preview, and the wiki software will automatically fill in your name and a datestamp.

Signed posts make it much easier to keep track of who said what, and when. Also, if you don't do this, you risk having your posts removed entirely.

OH I'm sorry is THIS better? And you didn't have to be so sensitive and ban me for calling you a nazi my gosh I've seen people make worse insults and not get banned. --AutobotKickshift 19:46, 14 October 2012 (EDT)
Getting pissed about it is not helping your cause. -- spyderUse this! 19:47, 14 October 2012 (EDT)
Oh now you're trying to govern when I get mad? Really? Threatening me isn't making you look friendly, not that you ever did. I don't really need to be a member of this wiki anymore. I found another one so why are you even wasting your time threatening me when I'm already banned? --AutobotKickshift 19:49, 14 October 2012 (EDT)
I'm not threatening you, I'm trying to help you. And I have not authority over you, whatsoever. -- spyderUse this! 19:50, 14 October 2012 (EDT)
So if you have NO authority over me why are you acting like you do? --AutobotKickshift 19:52, 14 October 2012 (EDT)
Because I was trying to get you to follow the rules of the wiki. I'm not the one who banned you, Walky was. And he can be a bit quick on the draw, but considering he found the wiki years ago when it was nothing more than a few stubs, runs the place and pays a portion of the fees for the server, I think he has an excuse. -- spyderUse this! 19:56, 14 October 2012 (EDT)
Well from what I've seen on Teletraan 1, It's a lot less about strict rules on editing --AutobotKickshift 19:58, 14 October 2012 (EDT)
Which is why it's a shithole that quickly became obsolete once we left. I'm sure you'll fit right in. --M Sipher 20:02, 14 October 2012 (EDT)
I'm starting to realize that the only asshole in this conversation is Sipher. --AutobotKickshift 20:04, 14 October 2012 (EDT)
Read what I put on your other talk page. -- spyderUse this! 20:08, 14 October 2012 (EDT)
Of course you would. Because you're clearly an idiot. Leave now. --M Sipher 20:11, 14 October 2012 (EDT)
Really?..Is that really the most intelligent thing you could think of? "you're clearly an idiot"? Why don't you do the world and yourself a favor and just disappear?--AutobotKickshift 20:25, 14 October 2012 (EDT)
Yeah, we're done with you. --M Sipher 20:28, 14 October 2012 (EDT)
