Chat Ban
Why was I banned from chat? You warned me once on DBAD and UTP, so I dropped the subject. Then you told me to apologize to the dude, which I did, and the next thing I know I get banned. 21:20, June 5, 2017 (UTC)
 * I thought it was sincere enough, but whatever. If you want to warn and then ban me anyways for the same offense, they're your policies. 21:34, June 5, 2017 (UTC)

I'm not the images expert, plus I don't know how to do it properly on a wiki site, but could we find a picture for the Wolf King in Der Eisendrache? I know there are plenty out there and minor character or not, he was pretty influential during the zombies timeline.

Welcome templates
Pretty sure they can't be left by anyone, seeing as the Wikia bot leaves them with signatures of only admins and b'crats (or staff under certain circumstance) across all wikis. 09:31, June 24, 2017 (UTC)

Zombies characters pages?
I left an open discussion the Watercooler, but given you're the most recent person to delete the Victis page, I wanted to bring it up with you directly. Certainly, Ultimis, Primis, and Victis are more notable than the Alcatraz Guards, Alcatraz Prisoners, CIA in Zombies, and the CDC, right? So why don't they get a page? SteveHeist (talk) 08:30, June 26, 2017 (UTC)

Timeless's Block
What was the cause behind TimelessPeople's block? I mean, that's some pretty big stuff I haven't seen any of that behavior here on the wiki. Conqueror of all Zombies (talk) 04:56, June 30, 2017 (UTC)

RE: User Renames
We are currently running a script that is re-running the rename process for some accounts that have been renamed in the past. We identified a period of time a few weeks ago where the rename process may not have fully completed, so this script is being used to make sure they're sorted.

The Discord Widget
Hey. How did you add the widget for the Discord? I wanna add it to the NZP wiki now that I'm an admin over there. I already have a server, I just need to figure out the widget. Thanks, Sam.

Another Question
Why'd you undo the edits that Teapwn made with the flags? I don't see any real difference between his edits and the previous state of the pages. Conqueror of all Zombies (talk) 06:37, July 13, 2017 (UTC)


 * Ah, alright. Makes sense! Conqueror of all Zombies (talk) 19:53, July 13, 2017 (UTC)

Finally! Thanks Sam. ZH115 (talk) 10:22, July 13, 2017 (UTC)

Why did you remove my contributions to the http://callofduty.wikia.com/wiki/Oil_Rig page? What wrong did I do? All I did was just post a couple of pictures, a video showcasing the map and that's it. KarkkYT (talk) 22:40, July 28, 2017 (UTC)KarkkYT

Chat ban
Can I be unbanned from the Discord chat here? I can't even remember what I was banned for. I miss you guys. If I remain banned though, tell Sugars I said hi :( 00:10, September 13, 2017 (UTC)

Discussions
Hey Sam

I’m Nico aka Knakveey from FANDOM's Community Development team and I’ve done some work here in the past (mostly giveaway stuff). Lately I've been playing the WWII beta and noticed that the discussions here have been heavily moderated -- perhaps too much so? I'm just worried that with the potential rise of participants coming with the game's release in early November, you might get overwhelmed with the amount of posts.

From what I've seen from previous interactions with FANDOM staff you're probably sick of us, but figure I wouldn't hurt to try and reach out to you.

I understand that the discussion feature wasn’t exactly welcomed with open arms by this community, but I also see you’re trying to make the best of it, which is great. I think.

However, I'm concerned your approach and moderation style might be too severe. You want people to follow the rules — don’t post certain types of things, and post other things only in certain ways. This can work well when there’s already a “critical mass” of people, but right now it’s driving away the very users you want to have stick around. Remember that from their perspective, their posts are simply disappearing. And you’re also losing some decent conversations with replies, such as this and this (apologies to non-admins reading this who can’t see those). Maybe those are not the most robust contributions, but those people would likely come back and keep talking, except now they see their stuff is gone.

Perhaps you can consider letting the users know what they did wrong, what they should do next time, and then lock the post so no one else will reply. This helps that user learn and also serves an example to others in the future. If the post is just deleted, no one sees it and no one learns.

I also see that you’re trying to consolidate some types of posts into single threads such as this one. That may work well if you reply to other posts with that directive and then lock them (as I suggested). But clearly it’s not working right now since you’re still having to delete a fair number of posts. Another option is to just settle for individual posts in the “Looking for players” category since that is what’s happening already.

I totally get that you’re probably frustrated with having to oversee this and not seeing the improvements you want. If you would like to take a break, I can have some of our Global Discussions Moderators come in and whip things into shape. They can still enforce the rules you’ve set up, but might take some different approaches and find more success. Let me know what you think. Thanks :)

 * Hey Sam,

Thanks for taking the time to write back to me. We'll assign some global moderators to help out and will be in touch with you in the near future. Thanks again,

Hello! Question:
If it is not too much trouble, could you add the 2017 Mega Construx sets to the Template: Mega Bloks Sets. Here is a playlist of call of duty sets for you, in case you need a source:  (most of the videos are of the older sets)

Locking Shadow Company Talk Page
Could you explain to me why you locked the Shadow Company talk page? What was I doing wrong? What warning was ignoring? It's not like I was necroing the talk, as the earliest post before me was back in May. One of your mods even told me to post my rationale on the talk, which is why I did so. Nobody's forcing anybody to believe anything. Really sounds like you're just adverse to discussion.

Edit: It appears you locked the Shadow Company wiki page, as well. Again - why? I think I edited it twice before going to the talk page to explain why I think it should be changed.

Elvis2500 (talk) 22:46, November 7, 2017 (UTC)Elvis2500

I apologize for accusing you, but could tell me what "warning" I was ignoring? You seem to be mistaking my attempt to discuss as an attempt to force an edit.

Elvis2500 (talk) 23:33, November 7, 2017 (UTC)Elvis2500

Ah, okay. Will post in talk before editing from this point forward.

Elvis2500 (talk) 23:39, November 7, 2017 (UTC)Elvis2500

Understood again, thanks for letting me know.

Deleted Blog?
Excuse me but why did you delete my blog? Nanomat (talk) 23:13, November 7, 2017 (UTC)


 * Fair enough, is there any way to recover the code of the blog since I've been working on it for hours? Nanomat (talk) 23:19, November 7, 2017 (UTC)


 * Just want to say that deleting my blog outright was extremely severe action, I see that the blog was against the rules but some kind of warning before deleting it could have been a nice thing. I don't know if I have done something to warrant such an action but if I had been warned I would have complied with the rules. Nanomat (talk) 23:36, November 7, 2017 (UTC)


 * First time of what? Not reading the rules? Okay, I'm guilty of that but where in the blocking policy says that a user can be blocked because he did not read the rules? All the violations that warrant a block seem to be vandalism, personal attacks, vulgarity, copyright infringement, inappropriate username, sock puppetry and spam. As far as I know I have not committed any of those. Oh, and it looks like the rules state that "Vandals may be warned with the vandalism template. All other warnings may be personally written by an administrator." Nanomat (talk) 23:52, November 7, 2017 (UTC)

Delayed Message
Hey Sam,

Sorry for the long overdue follow up with your question about getting some mods. I see you've seen the post by Speedit and Noreplyz. How's everything going so far? It sounds like they're in a discord channel with you and others to discuss things. Hope everything with you is well,

Knakveey (talk) 23:05, November 27, 2017 (UTC)


 * Hey Sam,

I can understand your concerns and frustration concerning this. Let me reach out to the programming team and see what can be done about some of these posts coming from staff.

Thanks for your patience,

Knakveey (talk) 00:22, November 29, 2017 (UTC)


 * Hi Sam,

Per NoReplyz message here, we're trying a new system of streamlining content from our homepage (news & stories) to the CoD discussions. I would say that the two examples, especially the "Fandom 100" thing you've pointed out are not going to be a common occurrence and we're working on making the aesthetics of the post a bit more appealing.

I'm glad to hear that your collaboration with NoReplyz and Speedit have been going well :)

Vandalism Report
Excuse me, I like to report a possible vandalism in Soviet Armed Forces/Names. Instead of stating the game of origin in it's heading, it says how much it likes the Red Army. Fandom User 12:04 PM 12/8/2017

Hi
Two questions; I was wondering which information was hidden and second question could you delete all revisions before my most recent edit on my userpage - just them though.--Made up Character Wiki/Dragon Ball Fanon Wiki Admin Jack Jackson Things I do [mod] 11:22, February 1, 2018 (UTC)

"High Page Traffic"
Can you Unprotect the Ugraded Weapons page for CoD WWII Zombies? the page already got procted a week ago and me along with one or two more guys are trying to add information to it because the new DLC just came out, Can you please help and let us edit again? SomeGuyWithaComputer (talk) 14:45, February 1, 2018 (UTC)

Welcome template
Hey, just to let you know, I edited the welcome message template to reflect WWII (hell, it's been displaying MW3 for years, and there hasn't been any custom template after that of Advanced Warfare). Do you like the background and image, or do you feel something should be changed? (Also, for anyone who sees this message, you're free to comment as well) 14:56, February 10, 2018 (UTC)
 * Well, my main question was if you felt that the new template was fine :P Anyway, I don't think anything was broken there, it's just that the default message that automatically appears on new usertalk pages is from the MediaWiki page that I linked (still not having been changed after the MW3 theme), and not the Welc template that previously displayed AW and that is usually manually placed by users on talk pages.


 * Also, don't say "should of" you naughty person you :P

CoD3 Transcript
Hi, I've been transcribing the levels for Call of Duty 3, and the site isn't allowing my to publish the next one, citing: Petty profanity and vandalism. I did nothing of the sort. A character swears in the level, and I just wrote it down. Any help would be much appreciated! Edit: I censored the swear words so it could be published, I think a*s and b*tch is what did it. As a mod, do you think you could remove the censors so that the article is honest?

"nuisance account"
"vandalism" what happened to assuming good faith, huh? —Unsigned comment was added by |AmirFreeman2017‎

Hi sorry to bother you, i'm just highly confused about the message you left on my profile was about.

I don't recall deleting a discussion or whatever other than the thing on my profile mentioning my unnacceptable page and pictures for the Ballistic Shield.

sorry if I sounded rude at all, i'm not use to anything on the Call of Duty Wiki, yet.

Facebook page
I updated the Wiki's Facebook link on the main page, seeing as the previous one hasn't been in use for almost three years. Before I do the same on the relevant page of the Community Central, I'd like to ask: who are the specific users that operate the current FB page? (as long as we really need to mention them in the table) 12:16, July 14, 2018 (UTC)
 * I think Kyle also had access to it at some point. Might probably be messed up to list all users if some of them (including you) rarely used it. What do you think, should I list only CoaZ and YL for now? (or maybe just leave the cell "Operated by" blank) 13:09, July 14, 2018 (UTC)
