Map Pages
The gamemodes listed on the CoD4 MP map pages are for the console versions, as you can't play every map in every gamemode in them. Darkman 4 18:39, 19 March 2009 (UTC)
 * I've edited the map infobox so that it states that the gamemode listings are for consoles only and that PC players can play any map in any gamemode. Does that work? Darkman 4 06:10, 20 March 2009 (UTC)

Thx Man
Thx alot man i appreciate it. ERyan 00:58, 5 April 2009 (UTC)

Explanation about a person's age
I understand about you saying that Yuri Petrenko could not live 93 years or what, but I should tell you that the long life of a person like a soldier can be long if he takes care of his health; believe me, it can happen.Obi-Wan Kenobody 22:27, 6 April 2009 (UTC)

I will
Dont worry i will not write in all capitals but thanks for liking my ideas.

Nice job
On the requested featured article template-- 01:31, 12 April 2009 (UTC)

Fanon
There are some very strange articles about weapons that don't actually exist in Cod:WaW. Like the Holy Pistol and the "Flammenwerfer".

I think they might be fanon...

Pics
When you're getting the CoD3 wep pics, make sure to get a regular and ironsight picture for the weapons. Don't forget to grab a decent capture card as well. :) Darkman 4 00:37, 29 April 2009 (UTC)

Lol now look
I got my signature to work but how do i get it so the time and stuff isnt in a different box? -- 01:04, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

Nominated
I have nominated you for user of the month. Good luck-- 17:23, 10 May 2009 (UTC)

Something to improve your user page
One of your create a class says 'primary weapon-skorpion', 'secondary weapon-AK47' and perk 2 - stopping power. surely you mean overkill? I do not mean to criticize you!

Callofduty4 17:35, 11 May 2009 (UTC)

Weapon Pages
The AK-47 page was made about two years ago. Back then, this wiki was new, so it needed as much content as possible, no matter how small it was. These days, this wiki is big enough that we don't need to be making pages for things we barely know about. Darkman 4 00:53, 7 June 2009 (UTC)

Re: Adminship
I read what you said, and I accept. I think you should close the request! Callofduty4    Ask me anything!  16:14, 21 June 2009 (UTC)

Myth Test? Would you?
Could you prove the myth that the Dragunov has no need for Stopping power? Or even better, give me a confirmation on my talk page?

If you don't have the time, don't bother.

Callofduty4 |    Ask me anything!  19:56, 24 June 2009 (UTC)

Is it true that...
...you don't snipe in Carentan?

signature again
Hi, you answered my question about my signature a few days ago, Ive made one, but everytime I add to my comment on a page, all the writing underneath it on the page goes very small. I think Ive made it incorrectly. could you fix it for me? thanks --BiGf00t 19:54, September 15, 2009 (UTC)

WouldYouKindly
It was so weird, I had just clicked edit to nominate WYK for UoTM when I saw that you had already done it at the exact same time. Weird stuff happens. 00:28, September 24, 2009 (UTC)

I just wanted to say, thank you for your nomination, it means a lot to me WouldYouKindly 11:26, September 24, 2009 (UTC)

Tester
How did you put tester in there with you? 22:24, September 26, 2009 (UTC)

In one of your wall penetration test pictures It says "you killed Tester" how did you make him, and put him in the map with you. 22:47, September 26, 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for responding :). 23:12, September 26, 2009 (UTC)

Weapon class layout
I used your weapon class layout as a template, if you don't mind, and I noticed you didn't put what special grenades you use. I don't know if you decided to exclude that or not, but I thought I'd just point that out. No biggie. Chief z 00:01, October 13, 2009 (UTC)

RE: WYK
Heh, I actually happened to unblock him not even five minutes before you sent that message. Thanks, though. 21:37, October 13, 2009 (UTC)
 * You can never be too perfect. :P 22:05, October 13, 2009 (UTC)

New templates!
Here are a few ideas I thought of. Saint likes the idea, so he told me to go to you and Bovell.

When someone gets suspended this should pop up! "Come out with your hands up! This is Major (admin who blocked user)! You have (amount of time suspended) to give up! If you don't we will execute(the person who has been suspended" and show a picture of a Russian officer.

When they get banned it should show Soap being shop and saying "Fine then we have executed your profile!" Sorry you're profile has been banned, GAME OVER! Peter Griffen Boy 06:57, December 30, 2009 (UTC)

Re:Impersonal You
I would rather call it guidelines. It's a bigger problem than it seems. I'm sorry if I've gone overboard, but I think it's necessary if we want to keep up the high-quality standard of our wiki. 22:07, January 1, 2010 (UTC)

I've been sent by Saint and Callofduty4
These two administrators ask me to deliver you a message.

It's the F.N.G. sir!

A lot of people think this should replace Comissar Letlev and the grettings comrade templete. Peter Griffen Boy 15:39, January 2, 2010 (UTC)

no that ain't it
Is how everyone has another time setting.

Re:Speedy delete
I'm sorry, I didn't notice that. I've been getting a lot of stuff on my talk page recently. I see they got deleted, sorry I couldn't get to it quickly. 20:46, January 2, 2010 (UTC)

Welcome template
Very nice. The color adds a lot of effect. Great work yet again. 22:49, January 2, 2010 (UTC)

Re:Vandal
Got him, thanks a lot. Do you hand-type your vandalism message? Just wondering. 14:01, January 4, 2010 (UTC)


 * Oh. I like that one more but the template is easier to use for lazy people like me. 15:04, January 4, 2010 (UTC)

New welcome templete?
Should we have a vote on it to see if it should be changed? Peter Griffen Boy 15:55, January 4, 2010 (UTC)

I know this makes me sound very stupid, but how to make a discussion on the war room? I can't find a button or a link to do so. Peter Griffen Boy 18:08, January 4, 2010 (UTC)

Did that, but it won't show up! Peter Griffen Boy 18:24, January 4, 2010 (UTC)

RE: Request for Rollback
Sorry for the delay, but sure; I'll give you the powers in a jiff. Links that say "[rollback]" should appear on the recent changes, contributions, history, and watchlist pages. If you ever accidentally click one when you shouldn't, just revert yourself and everything will be fine. If you have any other questions, just hit me up. 06:17, January 6, 2010 (UTC)

New templete idea
Okay it's under this. Peter Griffen Boy 00:50, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

Okay I got another idea. It could show the Ranger's logo and have "Private (username here), show these editors hows it's done" Peter Griffen Boy 22:28, January 18, 2010 (UTC)

Re:Angry Vandal is Angry
Thanks, what's his problem. 17:30, January 24, 2010 (UTC)

Sorry about that.
I never knew that Cod4 nominated me back then. Imrlybord7 01:19, January 28, 2010 (UTC)

What kind of name is.....
Just took a look at your sandbox. Absolutely love the one with captain price saying the username with "what kind of name is...." Awesome work. I hope that one gets picked as the new greeting template. Which one does your personal preference go out to. TNT LotLP 08:57, February 1, 2010 (UTC)


 * Oh hey, look. this IS my 1000th edit. nice. And I've only been here since november 2, 09. heh, I'm pretty fast in getting those edits. our mainspace percentages are even almost the same. BTW, mind if I steal a few of those userboxes? TNT LotLP 08:21, February 2, 2010 (UTC)

Look at the new admin
Hey, you're most likely going to be a new admin! I nominated you and you're 7-0-0. Seems like you'll get in on this one. Peter Griffen Boy 22:23, February 1, 2010 (UTC)

Your Opinion
Since I don't know you, you're experienced, and mature, I'd like ask your opinion on me becoming an admin. I'm not 100% sure if it's my time, so I'd like someone else's opinion.

--  T    C    E   04:09, February 6, 2010 (UTC)

Thank you. That's pretty much what I expected, and what everyone's been saying. I'm going to try again next month.

--  T    C    E   23:54, February 6, 2010 (UTC)

Notes..
First, you should consider archiving your talk page. Second, do you own either a Playstation 3 or XBOX 360? Doc.Richtofen 16:13, February 6, 2010 (UTC)

Re:Speedy Delete
Done, thanks a lot. 19:37, February 6, 2010 (UTC)

Ah, WYK beat me too it. Thanks for the heads up though, and congrats on your imminent rise to admin. 03:16, February 12, 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, congratulations! Doc.Richtofen 11:35, February 13, 2010 (UTC)


 * Not a problem. We all knew you had it in you. 16:06, February 13, 2010 (UTC)

To be honest...
I always thought you were a mod. Slowrider7 14:08, February 13, 2010 (UTC)

RE: New welcome proposal
Looks good to me.

Sorry I didn't get to it before, but you are now an administrator! You can now do the following: If you have any questions, feel free to go to me or any of the other sysops for help. 22:59, February 15, 2010 (UTC)
 * Edit and move fully protected pages
 * Protect pages
 * Unprotect pages
 * Block users
 * Unblock users (including yourself in the event you are blocked, but this would be power abuse in most situations)
 * Delete pages
 * Restore pages
 * Edit MediaWiki pages
 * Look at previously deleted pages and images
 * Look at and deal with problem reports


 * Didn't want to start a new section, this seems relevant. Um, about the new reznov welcome template...was that based off of the one I suggested? Because, other than the red shading, it seems to match up exactly to the one I created. Just wondering. 03:02, February 17, 2010 (UTC)


 * Ohhhh...well, as you can see, this was my first activity in weeks, so I hadn't noticed. Thanks for clearing that up, sorry.

Boxes
Hey dude I was wondering how to create my own userboxes and how to add them to my userpage... thx message me on my pg with the answer... thx!

Pbre 02:43, February 28, 2010 (UTC)

Thx a lot dude! It worked on my page. But i tried it on another wiki and it doesnt show anything at all All i did was change the words so it doesnt say "Owns it for the PC" all that to something else... Do u have any idea y that happened?Pbre 00:58, March 1, 2010 (UTC)

Don't worry.
I always appreciate input. Also, it's pretty awesome how with one comment on my talk page you made me remember exactly why you are an admin (no, that is not some kind of underhanded insult). Imrlybord7 12:31, February 28, 2010 (UTC)

FA template
Hi Bovell. While you were making the new FA template, I was making one as well. So I saved mine on top of yours, and then I thought "that's unfair". So then I combined them. Your info is still there (and the picture), but I added a bit of CoD info from my version. I hope you don't mind. Thanks. 21:57, February 28, 2010 (UTC)

Userboxes
Whenever I try to add a userbox to my page it doesn't work. Can you tell me how to make it work? Cpl.  Dunn  01:02, March 1, 2010 (UTC)

Creative Design
Well, I have a feeling that your genius goes beyond wiki template creating, and that you're probably far superior in pixel art than I, so I have a request.

Do you mind making an emblem for the game I'm creating, Sierra Company? I need an emblem for the Sierra Company, kind of like TF141's, except green.

If I am mistaken about your abilities, I am truly sorry. I'm just very impressed with your work.

Hey dude,

I don't know why u erased all the info. If you need sources, look at the talk page of Stimulus. Maybe IW didn't confirm it, but it looks pretty real, especially the map. Idk, just asking/telling.

I think that FAL was just saying that he thought that Pavski was a lesbian. I don't think he was using it as an insult, just conjecturing. I could be wrong, though. Imrlybord7 12:36, March 26, 2010 (UTC)

 * Whoops, there must have been some error on my end. I went to block him and thought that you had extended the block. Might have something to do with the innocent guy I accidentally blocked at the same time (yes, I unblocked him several seconds later and apologized). My bad. Imrlybord7 16:07, March 26, 2010 (UTC)

Could you do me a favor
http://callofduty.wikia.com/wiki/User_blog:DevilWarrior112/The_Administrators_Appeal

This blog started simply off, then Griever insulted me (way off the topic of the normal reason anyway, so really he started it), so I defended myself, and now it's turning into a PGB-slam festial, when Devil was just trying to make a point and a suggestion, so I got two things you should do and a third option.

1. Erase the blog and/or block people who are responsible.

2. Blank comments and/or block people who are responsible

3. (do not pick this one) Smoke a cigar, eat a pizza, join in on the slam and block PGB for the lolz.

We should of listend to you, now we're all gonna pay. You have a blank block-log, Bovell, use it.

Regarding PGB
I think his block should be extended, please view my Talk Page and you will see that his most recent message was full of profanity (poorly spelled I might add) and his behavior has been rude and unprofessional. Thank you.  "Master Kenobi You have my thanks.Good editing. 21:44, March 27, 2010 (UTC)

How about a week? PGB has been offending many users in the way he likes it. DevilWarrior112 21:51, March 27, 2010 (UTC)


 * No it's okay, in a way seeing how rude he was really is a good example to remind me not to lose my cool (as I have in the past). It also reminds me exactly why I'm here, helping the wiki. Thank you for the offer though. [[Image: lightsaber.jpg|25px]] "Master Kenobi TalkContribs--Good editing 21:59, March 27, 2010 (UTC)

CheezyDerek
He apologizes profusely for his actions.

No, what he actually email me was:

"can u please tell Bovell i'm sorry i called him gay"

-- EightOhEight  22:43, March 27, 2010 (UTC)

Seriously, come on...
PGB left you a kindly worded request to delete the blog causing trouble but it seemed all you did was join in the PGB-bashing session. Why did you do that? It was uncalled for, immature (which is very strange of you) and stupid and if you had just done what he requested everything would have been fine. I don't like coming on and being met with several PGB-related problems. Come on, think twice before you do something that stupid. 01:33, March 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * I would like to say, that as one of them non-Senior User non-Admin people that it was not a PGB bash, it was in-fact somewhat of a strongly-worded debate. Nobody was victimizing the man, we were telling him to lay off of Griever.  Darthkenobi0 [[Image: lightsaber.jpg|25px]]BlogTalkContributions 01:35, March 28, 2010 (UTC)

Callofduty4 is you must, re-do that post. They're all goin around questioning my intrelligence and doing bad stuff like that. Sorry for my misplelings, but not everyone's computer has .0001 second internet and a state of the art connection and keyboard.


 * We were questioning the intelligence of what you said to Griever. You made personal attacks on him and myself. That Callofduty4 has unblocked you is insulting, and I cannot believe that this is happening, if the decisions of three separate admins are to be questioned by another, the wiki is lost.  Darthkenobi0 [[Image: lightsaber.jpg|25px]]BlogTalkContributions 01:39, March 28, 2010 (UTC)

Notice
Okay I'm not sure if you were on but PGB got blocked for personal attacks, ask Bovell, Darkman and Doc.Richtofen. Three admins supported his block, for personal attacks against myself (see my talk page) and against Griever (he started a flame war with it). So about four of us are defending Griever, and telling PGB exactly why Griever said that PGB was being unwarrantedly arrogant, so he just goes off. Minutes ago Callofduty4 unblocked PGB with no good reasoning, on the basis that PGB gave him some pitiful argument about how he was bullied. This is really worrying me, when Admins are suddenly disagreeing about such an obvious incident. I mean, PGB was making serious insults to all of us, and Callofduty4's decision is worrying me. I hope you don't think I'm being immature about this, I am genuinely worried, I would bring this up with other admins or bureaucrats but I do not feel it is my place. Thank you.

Closing discussion on COD:G
As you may be aware, a discussion regarding a revision of COD:G has been going on in the War Room, found here. The thread has been active for about a month now. I will be looking into proposing changes to COD:G; however I would be appreciative if more editors contributed their thoughts to the proposed changes at this stage rather than when the voting takes place.

I would like to invite you, as an administrator and experienced editor, to contribute your thoughts on the COD:G issue so that we can formulate the best revision possible. --Scottie theNerd 14:28, March 28, 2010 (UTC)
