AMBIGUITY IS THE FLAVOR OR LIFE!

YOU WOULD ROB US OF OUR MYSTERIES!

Dumping everything written was not required, unless Wikipedia automatically saves what I have written somewhere.

Uh. Oopsies? Didn't know you were getting pics, too. --Monzo 21:50, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

Americanised spelling

Hi there, PacifistPrime the originator of the Scale article here. Thanks for cleaning up some of the typos. However, is it really neccessary to "correct" all my spelling by changing it to Americanised spelling? Is there actually a rule here that one has to use American spelling instead of, well... to be frank: the way the rest of world's users of the English Language spell? No offence intended, just asking. Let me know. PacifistPrime

I would think "yes", since this is an Amerocentric wiki and consistency looks professional. I don't realistically believe we'll ever achieve that because there are too many people from too many regions contributing, and further there are a lot of variations in how people type regardless of what area they're from. I can't stand putting two spaces between sentences, but I wouldn't be offended if someone changed a page I worked on to use them. -LV 16:41, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

What edit are you talking about?

If you're talking about my submission about Blackarachnia's telekinesis, it is NOT baseless speculation; she did use telekinesis in Master Blaster against Rampage, and although they never said where she got it, it is very likely that the psychic link she had with Tarantulas was upgraded during her Transmetalization. Watch the episode; you'll see Blackarachnia's eyes glow green, levitate an I-beam, and fling it at Rampage. The episode was right after Crossing the Rubicon (where Blackarachnia became a TM2), and 18 episodes after Tangled Web, when Blackarachnia forced Tarantulas to terminate their mind link after four episodes (and in case you want to contest it, Other Visits made a mention of the mind link, and how it worked both ways, meaning that BA had some remnants of the link, at the very least some of Tarantulas' memories, if not some other side effects).66.233.183.59 15:40, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

I'm not Sipher, but I agree that it's speculation that doesn't belong here. Her glowing eyes echo the glowing tendrils involved in Cheetor's TM2-ification. It's a Transmetal 2 thing, and I see nothing whatsoever to connect it with the former mental link she shared with Tarantulas. --KilMichaelMcC 16:21, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

Beast Wars Video Game

Hey Siph- I finally picked up a copy of the BW Game off e-bay (the original snap I made was from the demo.)

I'm nto very far into it (finding time this summer is tough) but thus far there's been no mention of the Skriix. Were they named in the game booklet or something? ('cuz i lack the booklet.) -Derik 21:13, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

I'm trying to remember WHERE they were named. It might have been promotional materials. It's not in the booklet, I know that... --M Sipher 21:52, 20 June 2007 (UTC)
I theeeeeenk it might've been in one of the pre-mission "briefings" that came up before you started each level. Level... three, I want to say? - Chris McFeely 21:53, 20 June 2007 (UTC)
Okay, then I just haven't played it enough to get that info. Thanks!
Was there anything of value at all in the booklet that I'm missing out on? -Derik 22:13, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

ok, but what about those pages that are wanted?

you can't say a whole lot about say the third episode of Five Faces of Darkness can you?

other than that, what do you think of my wording?

and btw, theres a weird random page about weather in london but wasn't deleted, joke I'm not aware of maybe? --DracoJesi 18:42, 2 August 2007 (UTC)

Image upload issues

Are you having any problems with image uploads? For some reason the wiki isn't uploading my images onto the server. --FFN 09:28, 1 September 2007 (UTC)

Twirl toy image

Can you upload a photo of her robot and vehicle modes? Preferably against a 'neutral' background to fit with the rest of the toy pics. She is too awesome to go without toy photos, methinks. --FFN 10:24, 28 October 2007 (UTC)

Megatron's Brazilian Voice Actor

Howdy ho! Hey, you said that the information about Megatron's voice actor in the film was on the wrong place when i put it on his page. Where would be the right place? I was thinking that maybe if i mentioned that José Santacruz plays a REALLY monstrous Megs, much similar to the one Hugo Weaving did, maybe it could go where i originally intended? Thanks for the time.--akumateukuma 11:58, 4 November 2007 (UTC)

Rartorata

I don't really appreciate the "fuck you" in your edit summary, Siph. After the last round of discussion in October I thought -- due to lack of voiced disagreement -- that the names were going to be toned down to just ones that sound at least slightly like his real name, which personally I consider quite important. I reverted an anonymous change to the article which went against that "rule", and now you're cursing me out. That is quite uncool. --Steve-o 05:21, 7 December 2007 (UTC)

Create-A-Bot's Alt-modes

I'm currently reworking the format and putting it in a more relevant form. It's not that it isn't important, but that the method in which it was added was inappropriate. I believe the original version went something like this.

"Just like his heroic counterpart, Create-A-Bot can adapt into numerous forms that can change his status, but several of his forms cannot be accessed in the game, but can be obtained by WiFi points by visiting the official Activition website. The altmodes are..."

and then listed them in a long and hard to read cluster. This not only is confusing, but also give the impression that ALL of the alt-modes have to be unlocked. So, instead of having a list, I am going to add an easier to read section in each article.

- Update: The sections have been finished and added. Sorry about before, I guess I just forgot to leave a message on the Discussion page about it. -- King Starscream 04:04, 9 December 2007 (UTC)

Prowl Redirect

The wiki's lack of warning strikes again. I have made certain to preview every edit I do, looking for a warning that I'm editing an outdated version of the page. While I was making that edit, you redirected the page. When I previewed my edit, it gave no warning that anything had changed, so I submitted it—which undid the move. At least the new redirect included my clean-up...--Apcog 05:33, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

Robot Heroes

There are clear packaging pics of all that are on TFW2005 (I think, I went from Seibertron.com). Not sure where from, but it isn't like they've been secretly leaked to me.

Ragingtsunami726 02:30, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

So... stolen. --M Sipher 02:31, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

Here's some links, right here

Anyone and their mother can see them. I see nowhere that they've been stolen and find it hard to believe Hasbro wouldn't have seen the pics after a day or two, considering Stealth Bumblebee. We've seen Cheetor, Rattrap, and Megatron before anyway. I'm leaving them there. Ragingtsunami726 02:39, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

We've seen them because they were stooooooooooooooolen. They have noooot been officially announced by Hasbro or any official sales solicitations anywhere. Therefore, they are not to be put on this wiki until they are. --M Sipher 02:42, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

We saw the prototypes (Not Blackarachnia) months ago. They've been on this Wiki with the exception of Blackarachnia for months. If I absolutly cannot add her and the confirmed lineups, I will change it back to the way it was before. The protos have been and still are available for the rest and have been for months. I think, THINK they were from Botcon, but I'm unsure. Comic-Con? Ragingtsunami726 02:46, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, several were shown at Botcon 2007; maybe at Comic-Con too, I dunno. But for the ones that weren't, our own policy (specifically Help:Coming_soon ) means we need to leave them alone until there's something official. Without a hard and fast policy, there's no fair way to declare what should and shouldn't be here when gray areas arise. Besides which, we're not trying to be a news site. Chip 02:54, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

Is that a good compromise? There is no info there that seems unacceptable to me. I apologize for getting off on the wrong foot. The article on Smash Bros. Brawl on Wikipedia has made me defensive. Ragingtsunami726 03:01, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

You don't get to annoy and rule-break your way back to good graces.

Unless you're me, that is. -hx 18:16, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

Weird bootleg minicons

Are you still looking for the various KO minicons? A store by me has the purple/yellow Star Saber team, the constructicon-esque Military team, and the weird combining remolds, if you're still interested. Also, they have inexplicably huge amounts of WCW Nitro cologne. -hx 20:03, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
