RE: Clan
I have been in an amazing Hardcore Search clan for CoD4 (honestly, we were easily one of the best GB clans around) and that's really the only serious clan stuff I've ever done. And, as I said, most of my school friends will be on BC2 for a while. I hate to leave you out in the cold like that, but they'll be pissed if I'm constantly playing with online friends instead of them. However, there are plenty of times where we are short a man, and then you are always welcome to join. Just, you know, be more social when you do. I'm not saying to be a chatty Kathy, nor will I say that my friends don't bite, because they definitely do sometimes, but if you roll with it for a bit I'm sure that you guys would get along just fine. I mean, I wouldn't be friends with them if I didn't consider them nice people. Imrlybord7 06:42, March 11, 2010 (UTC)


 * Oh, I was unaware that you were having mic issues. But you should try finding some other people to play with on the BF wiki, too. I will gladly join you guys if I'm not with school friends. Dammit, I feel like such a douche telling you off like this. I'm really sorry. Oh, and of course, congratulations on the sysopship. Glad to have you here. Imrlybord7 06:49, March 11, 2010 (UTC)

RE: Game ideas
This is going to sound dumb as hell, but my ideas are for me to make upon graduating from college. However, if your group comes up with a general premise, I will gladly construct a fleshed-out story, write a script, and help design core gameplay elements (on paper). I'm a bit of an English nut (I just love writing, not really a literature person), and to be honest, I'm surprised that you aren't one too given how well you write. Imrlybord7 07:09, March 11, 2010 (UTC)


 * I am truly, deeply, and terribly sorry to hear that. I would be even more bored than I already am without my imagination. It's like a vital organ to me. Imrlybord7 07:12, March 11, 2010 (UTC)

I'm actually about to go to bed (it's 2:35 and I have to be up at 6:15), but tomorrow I will try to get back to you with something interesting. However, if you could give me a general idea of what your dev team likes so that I'm not making useless suggestions, that would make the process a bit easier. Imrlybord7 07:36, March 11, 2010 (UTC)

PGB
Good point. He has shown that he's willing to use alts before. Like I just told Bord, I want him to completly serve out his block to show him that we aren't going to tolerate him when he has a bad attitude. Darkman 4 07:10, March 11, 2010 (UTC)

Re: Yo.
Congratulations my friend. I would say "Welcome to the See-Oh-Dee. Best handpicked group of administrators on the planet." But I already said that to Imrlybord. So, yeah.

* Awkward pause*

Your template is a worthy opponent. But I think we already know how Ghost v. Shepherd ends.

Sounds good. Message has been burned. And by burned, I mean I literally threw my computer in the fire.

Just joking. Gotcha! *Sigh*

Picture
Hello i was reffered here by another user who said that you might know something about taking modern warfare 2 screenshots on the console mainly the 360. I am hoping to produce some quality articles but would need to be able to take screenshots and i only have the console. I do not know if it is possible to take screenshots with a 360 but if it is then you seem like you would probably know how to do it. If you do know and could help me on it i would appreciate that very much. I hope you will message me back with an answer soon.-The Last Brigadier 01:21, March 12, 2010 (UTC)

Remember,
BE BOLD!

You're a sysop now. You don't need approval on everything unless you are unsure as to whether or not it's a good idea. We all need to be able to operate independently using our own judgment if we want anything to get done at a reasonable pace.

And I'll try to get back to you with game ideas before Monday.

Happy adminning! Imrlybord7 08:18, March 12, 2010 (UTC)

Capture Card
I knew that he would need a capture card, but I was pretty ignorant in terms of what software was needed and I'm not a fan of giving half an answer. Imrlybord7 09:56, March 12, 2010 (UTC)

Just Cause 2
Madre del diablo, that looks simply amazing. Dude... can I download the demo for Xbox right now... or, do I have to wait?

Also, for the weekend, I WILL be able to play. There's something on the Xbox dashboard that says that people who don't have Xbox live will be able to try out the Gold experiences for the weekend. So, could I play a game with you then? Corporal Juan José Rodriguez Reportin' for duty. 13:06, March 12, 2010 (UTC)

I downloaded the free trial. I tried to mess around with the controls... and it was simply epic. The graphics, the random grappling... it's awesome!

RE:
I'd actually completely forgotten about that vote (and apparently so did everyone else). It DID technically pass and was long overdue to be implemented, so nah, you did the right thing by putting that page up. --WouldYouKindly 18:58, March 12, 2010 (UTC)

screenshot RE
I have the capture card and have a video so how do i remove things like the hud so i can get a clean shot?-The Last Brigadier 22:45, March 12, 2010 (UTC)

RE: Usergroups
The problem with having usergroup pages start with "Usergroup:" is that they remain part of the mainspace, and it is treated like an article, identically to that of anything else (e.g.: M16A4 among other things). I would recommend just making them into subpages of the main project page.

The discussion on whether to have both types of usergroups as opposed to just project-based groups never really finished. Scottie explained the reasons not to recrational groups and no one went anywhere else. What does that make the hypothetical score? One-nothing, about.

The project page could be used as a place to start project-based groups, as opposed to requiring a previous userbase before listing, as it would act as a hub for people to gather on information on usergroups in general. 05:44, March 13, 2010 (UTC)

RE: 808
yEAH, Im from oahu, waikiki to be exact. I really need help with all the wiki features. Ive been contributing as much as I could to the articles but still want to help anyway I can.

RE:BC2
Yeah, it plays more like a tactical shooter than COD does, my advice is to use both cover and the destructible environments to your advantage (I can't count the number of times I've seen an enemy behind cover and just launched a grenade. No more cover.)--WouldYouKindly 18:15, March 13, 2010 (UTC)

And also, move with your squad in single-player. Rushing ahead like you can in COD WILL get you killed quickly.--WouldYouKindly 18:16, March 13, 2010 (UTC)

Sure, once I finish my lunch.--WouldYouKindly 18:31, March 13, 2010 (UTC)

RE: Some more info
Well, Trijicon is the only company that makes ACOGs, and they make a lot of different types with different levels of magnifications. You could also use AN/PEQ lasers, different types of magazines (gotta love them Beta-C mags), different barrel lengths, different shoulder stocks, suppressors, flashlights, and under-barrel grenade launchers and shotguns. As for ammo types, hollow point, incendiary, shotgun slugs, and maybe a few others. All military weapons already use FMJ, so that shouldn't be a type of special ammo.

RE: Newsfeed

 * 1) Call Ghostbusters.
 * 2) Pull a solution out of Price's beard.
 * 3) Give Ramirez a butter knife and tell him to do something about it.

If none of those ideas work, you could just get a bunch of people to work on 'reserve' in that they don't search for news every day, but they give someone (you?) a heads up if they find something. Does that help? 07:59, March 14, 2010 (UTC)

RE: Forum:Roleplay
Dot... dot ... dot ... question mark? That was awfully random.

Actually, since when has this been the case? Well, if people are interested, I don't see why not. I have some experience with online roleplaying, so I'm actually interested. 03:52, March 15, 2010 (UTC)
 * The know-how of creating on-wiki forums is something I don't have. Ask Joey about it. 04:02, March 15, 2010 (UTC)

You fixed it, right? I'll try to make a thread within a few days if no one else does to try to raise awareness. 06:18, March 16, 2010 (UTC)

Hey
Hey, I was just wondering if you could make me those user bar things and the custom signature. Thanks. I also see that you are quite a techy so to speak and I had a great idea for the wiki. It may be hard or easy for you to do. I was thinking of making a Cod Wiki iPhone app. I don't know how hard it would be to develop but maybe you could look into it.MdDy x GMON3Y 01:57, March 16, 2010 (UTC)

Signature
What info do you need? And I was just wondering about the app. Idea kinda popped into my head.MdDy x GMON3Y 02:02, March 16, 2010 (UTC)

How about an orange background, black font, an d the spinning green star call sign emblem for the pic. Also a link to my talk.MdDy x GMON3Y 02:06, March 16, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks!!! That's pretty gangsta. {Signature/MdDy x GMON3Y} Wait, why didn't it work?

Re: My friend...
Newsfeed looks great, I'd like to seen on the Main. Does that sound cool, calling the main page "the Main"? Probably not. Anyway, I'd be happy to update it whenever I can.

As for raising awareness, how does a site notice sound?! And I'd love to compose the outcomes into stories, as long as they don't get too crazy/absurd/stupid. 06:31, March 16, 2010 (UTC)


 * Yeah, I tried it out on AdvancedRookie's A battle, and it was fun for a while, but then stupid people screwed it up. Now a bunch of people are including me in their stories and I want to help but I'm afraid stupid people will screw it up. So I pretty much just stay away. I might give it a second chance on the Doc's new blog though, we'll see. Anyway, I'm going to bed. My sleep schedule's so screwed up by all the crap going on in my life right now.


 * P.S. - Newsfeed looks good. 06:49, March 16, 2010 (UTC)

What is Roleplaying?
Hello i was wondering what the roleplaying forum you made was. I cannot figure it out it sounds like a kind of fanfiction thing if that is so what kind like making or adding on to characters? or giving backstory? I cannot figure it out completely but it sounds like it might be good. So if you could please message me on what it is how you do it ect. i would appreciate that.-The Last Brigadier 21:00, March 16, 2010 (UTC)

BF:BC2
After playing, I realized that every player is equipped with an aimbot on their sniper rifle....*sigh*... the SELECT BUTTON! No wonder everyone snipes. Other than that, it totally rules. 🇨🇩

RE: Signature
Here are some quick concepts:


 * [[Image:US Army WWII TSGT.png|Technical Sergeant|20px]] Sgt. EightOhEightfriend Rifleman
 * US Army OF-1.png Lt. EightOhEightfriend Rifleman
 * US Army OF-1.png 808 US Army OF-1.png
 * Emblem-ghost-bust.jpg EightAughtEight Task Force 141 Emblem in Black and White.jpg
 * EightAughtEight

Do any of them appeal to you? If not, what would you like? Giving me a request or two to work around would be easier than just taking shots in the dark.

Hi... Again... I have finally figured out how to use my signature :D But I saw another signature and was wondering if you could change mine. I just want another spinning star on the right side. Sorry if I seem like a pain.

RE: Missing

 * 1) Jounin... where to begin. The guy was a crappy editor so I confronted him on his talk page, and he flipped the fuck out after I reverted a lot of his (terrible) edits. I mean FLIPPED THE FUCK OUT. This guy is insane, has anger issues, is socially inept, and stupid as hell. He wants to "destroy the wiki" for what I "did" to him (he thinks of me as some kind of tyrannical coward). He actually believes that minor vandalism here and there and comments on talk pages about the admins being "fascist pigs" will suddenly cause a vandal uprising.
 * 2) That was Kenobi reporting a "vandal" (really just a confused new user) on my talk page with a link to the category he made. Posting the link on my talk page made it a part of the category, so I just deleted that part.
 * 3) I'm pretty neutral, but if you want to do it anyway I wouldn't mind having it. And there's a wiki that could use some serious help. The SC wiki is practically dead. Imrlybord7 05:54, March 17, 2010 (UTC)

Consolation
Yo dude, if you want to give him my gamertag or my Yahoo address, Griever0311@yahoo.com, you can put him in touch with someone who's been through it all before. I'll answer any questions and try to alleviate any concerns he's got. I know what he's going through, and it's hard to get answers from recruiters sometimes. I ain't gonna harass the dude, or anything; I'm all about helping someone who might need it. --   Griever0311   07:46, March 17, 2010 (UTC)

All right, I'll keep an eye on my inbox; you don't have to pressure him or anything, but I know what he's going through - it's hard to go into something like that with no point of reference or any idea what to expect, and a recruiter will paint a pretty picture for you. I won't scare him or anything, or give him any gory details unless he asks for them, but if he's got any questions, I'll give him answers. --   Griever0311   08:02, March 17, 2010 (UTC)

Oh, really? I thought it was the Atchisson Assault shotgun. Woops, dumbass fail moment there.

Anything else
Anything else you wanna correct me on that I wrote in the ATEFI?

Ohhhh
Sorry, I thought you meant one of the snipers literally had an M203. In case you didn't know, that's the FN GL-1 Grenade Launcher. I see your point though; I wasn't really trying to make a sniper, more like a scoped battle rifle (like the M14 EBR). I added it mostly because I thought it looked cool as well :) 🇨🇩

General. Shepard 14:11, March 20, 2010 (UTC)

The UotM
I noticed Smuff's double-vote too. He didn't get blocked because he signed both times and didn't try to hide the fact. There doesn't seem to be a reason why he would do this on purpose considering being the only candidate and having 19 support votes already mean you've got it in the bag.
