Megatron joke

The monsters in MMPR always started out human-sized. Then, at some point, Rita throws her staff down from the Moon shouting "Make my monster grow!". The staff lands in the ground and energy shoots out of it, making the monster enormous. The laser effects around Megatron's cannon in that picture look a lot like the staff. Here is a YouTube clip of it: [1]. Honestly, it's not a big deal to me, but the old joke doesn't really make any sense in the first place. It seems to be a premature ejaculation joke to go along with his cannon firing, but it's not like there's anybody else in the picture for the innuendo to be complete. I think the observation our anonymous editor made about the resemblance to the staff is actually pretty clever. A rare instance of somebody changing a joke for the better, IMO. --Steve-o 16:20, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

Huzzah! I have a talk page now! Anyway, thanks for clearing it up... I didn't get the ressemblance of Bandora's staff to the laser blast effects of Megatron's cannons... At least I understood the previous joke, wasn't all that funny but it made sense without the explanation. -Detour 16:54, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

Re:

The user talk page should now be blocked globally. Is it custom to keep all user talk pages on this wiki, even if they're purely vandalism? GHe (Talk) 21:49, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

Well, since blocked users can still write on their talk pages, the admins here from what I've seen have deemed it better to lock them then just deleting them and having them come back... --Detour 21:53, 20 December 2007 (UTC)
It's possible to create a local blacklist to block creation of deleted pages locally. I'm not sure if one already exists here, but if not, the admins could easily create one if they're interested. I find that one of the downsides to having an existing page protected is that it eventually gets indexed into search engines, and that's not a good thing to have. GHe (Talk) 21:58, 20 December 2007 (UTC)
I wouldn't know much about that since I'm not an admin on this or any other wiki... I think there's a blacklist here, but you'd be better off taking up the matter with ItsWalky or Skyblitz in regards to putting Assaulthead's numerous talk pages on it. --Detour 22:11, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

BAN?

May it be possilbe to ban this foul mouth canadain? I mean look at his past records this guy is Canadian that killed our troops and started the cold war.

Anyway here is a song for this canadian

  • satiricaly comical song edited out because Assaulthead was too stupid to comprehend the satire in it.*

SABAZZ!

Oh for the love of... he's ran out of nonsensical reasons to attack Walky and Skyblitz, so now he's picking on me just because I'm removing the useless content he adds? I'd really hate to see how this kid behaves in real life... --Detour 00:09, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
He's obviously xenophobic. You should have seen what he wrote on Moscow before it was deleted. -- SFH 00:13, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
Xenophobic, sociopath, retarded, demented. There are a lot of adjectives that fit him. I just don't know what I've done to him that's so bad... --Detour 00:39, 22 December 2007 (UTC)

Revert Revert

Slaggit! This is like, the fourth time this has happened to me. I SPECIFICALLY checked with a preview when I was about to make the reversion, and it did NOT tell me any edits had been made since I'd started mine. Apologies for the confusion and annoyance, but I am definitely not doing this on purpose...--Apcog 23:39, 26 December 2007 (UTC)

No worries. I know it wasn't your fault. I'm pretty sure this happened to me at least once as well. --Detour 16:11, 27 December 2007 (UTC)
Thanks. That actually makes me feel a lot better about it.--Apcog 16:23, 27 December 2007 (UTC)

Treatment

Hey, it's not uploaded anywhere anymore (but Don Murphy has no issues with us handing it around). I can send you the PDF, but I need your email. --FFN 22:42, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

Nunchakus

His name is "Michelangelo". :) --Sntint 14:38, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

My bad. Haven't watched TMNT since the original toon. And I was never into Renaissance art or whatever era the artist namesake was from. --Detour 02:28, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

Airazor caption

Hi. I was wondering what was wrong with the old caption for the Airazor photo.

Essentially, there's nothing wrong with the toy so criticizing it like that is pointless. --Detour 08:29, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
Okay. I didn't think the caption was meant as a criticism of the toy. I thought it was meant to point out that though she was designed as a female figure, she didn't really turn out looking any more female than any other Transformer (excluding Arcee and Thunderblast). But humor is subjective, and what I find somewhat funny might not seem funny at all to someone else.
Airazor was designed as a male figure. The toy/character only became female on the insistence of the show writers. --Monzo 09:15, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
We're talking about the caption for the Transmetal figure. I thought that one was designed from the start to be female.
... oh! Did not realize. Sorry. Ignore me. --Monzo 09:51, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

Blurr

He is known to be a member, which should be enough, but he is also known to appear again later in the season, both through the footage from Dubai and the teasers released on the blog. That's why I said that I believed that it ws exception enough if he wasn't a member, it wouldn't need to be moved, but both together seem to be compelling enough.KrytenKoro 16:56, 18 May 2008 (UTC)

Look at your talk page, anything Dubai-related should not be discussed here in any capacity. We are not gloryhounds like Seibertron trying to be the first ones to announce every single giant spoiler of every single piece of media. --Detour 19:49, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
That's great, but that's not what I am trying to say. He was announced as a character a while ago, before Dubai, and on one of the creator blogs. He's known to be in the Elite Guard, and we even know who his American voice actor is. We've even had him make his first appearance. Dubai just confirmed an episode he reappears in. That's all I'm trying to say - that we know he's in the guard, and we have confirmation from various sources of a future appearance. Hell, that we've listed his voice actor should be confirmation enough.
And I didn't make the edit to spread spoilers - I did it to add info to a wiki, when the info is confirmed. Yes, we should not be obsessed with news, but neither should we put blinders on and wait until info is months or years old. (Hyperbole, but you get my point)KrytenKoro 22:05, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
