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?

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:
