Hey...
Thanks for the section on the WA2000 article. We appreciate it. --Kartoffel 06:03, June 22, 2010 (UTC)

Your welcome man. I just love the gun and I think others should too as well as being able to use it. --awyman13 23:47, August 13, 2011 (UTC)awyman13

Re: Edit
Well, I should be thanking you or contributing here so thank you. And thanks. 06:05, June 22, 2010 (UTC)

Re: Hey
I'll consider coming back if there's no power-abusing pricks this time. Thanks for informing. 12:42, September 11, 2013 (UTC)
 * How is the wiki doing for images? 12:43, September 11, 2013 (UTC)
 * Fine. We have a policy so copyright issues dont occur and we get sued like this Wiki did. It needs more enforcement however.-- 12:46, September 11, 2013 (UTC)

RE:Layout
I posted all my issues in the same blog comment that stated I had an issue with the layout. To put it in a short version, I would prefer it be more similar to us, and not because I dislike anything different, but more because whatever system is currently in effect makes the wiki very cumbersome and difficult to navigate around, as well getting relevant information from pages. IRL info is completely unneeded on a gaming wiki, if people want to look up the real guns they use imfdb or Wikipedia. And some of the navigation is poorly done, such as the Mortar pages, you have a page for "Mortar", a page for "M224 Mortar" and "Mortar (disambiguation)", nothing links to the disambig page, and searching "Mortar" takes you straight to the BF:V mortar page, with no link to either the disambiguation page or the M224 mortar page. These are some of the main issues, there are other niggling facts like inconsistent layout which makes adding any new content quite difficult as you don't know where to actually add it. 10:07, November 27, 2013 (UTC)

User talk:Jack of All
I don't where your comment came from, but if it's related to another wiki, please keep it off this wiki. Furthermore, due to the lack of any context calling someone "jackoff" could easily be seen as a violation of COD:UTP. 06:33, December 9, 2013 (UTC)
 * As I pointed out, there is absolutely no context on our side of the joke. All we saw was you putting something that looked like an insult on another page. If this joke comes from another wiki it is best keeping it to that wiki as people with no knowledge of said joke, as demonstrated here, will not be able to tell what is actually going on. 18:03, December 9, 2013 (UTC)

RE:Bean
As long as he does in fact get properly dealt with, and his bragging is not condoned, then I will regain some respect for the affiliation between our Wikis. You'll have to excuse my hesitance, as he has made claims that he was able to discuss this for such a long length of time, as well as begin bragging which I saw only got edited out of a blog post, as well as the warning deleted, which feels more like a cover up to me. However, as long as he does get the reprimand then I will regain what he took. 18:17, February 21, 2014 (UTC)
 * He claims he did so though chat, so I am unsure how much of what he claimed was seen. And thank you for linking me the forum. I may input into the forum if I can think of anything to put, as I do not wish to start putting my opinions into BFs wiki as I do not edit there commonly, unless the Wiki needs some kind of image overhaul. 20:54, February 21, 2014 (UTC)
 * Well I have BF3+4 with Premium for PC, so I might be able to get images when I'm free. I also developed the naming protocol seen on this wiki. So that's where my fortay is. 22:10, February 21, 2014 (UTC)
 * In fact, looking over your images, I see some don't have all that great names, and given the nature of our wikis are quite similar, I reckon they could use a variant of our naming system and it could look quite nice. It also helps with maintenance quite a lot (so when you find an old image, you can tell what it is and where it goes). If you haven't seen it, our policy is here. I could happily help implement and rename images as well. 22:35, February 21, 2014 (UTC)

Re
Yeah, I just sometimes work on maintenance and reverting vandalism on here. 20:48, February 26, 2014 (UTC)

RE:Images
The most obvious answer: Use them.

Seriously, if he puts them on a sandbox page or something, it should stop them appearing on Unused images. But aside from that, there's not much I can do. In order to check each image I'd have to manually check each image on-wiki to see who the uploader is, completely taking away from the fact I'm using a bot. 02:50, March 2, 2014 (UTC)

I was always milling around secretly...
Well, I've been scanning through them old archives of talk pages and decided to follow through with your suggestion. ( despite knowing any changes aren't likely given half the admins tried to block me for 6 months...) So lets go through the list: That just leaves CoD4 right? hmmmm... I did give him a little thing in chat on here but whether he saw it, wants to acknowledge it or if that counts is a different question... I don't want to be difficult... I'll leave him a message on his talk here and give you a link once I'm done. Let me know if there's anything else. I'll probably be milling around anyway so I'll get back to you ASAP hopefully.
 * Apology to Tywin and BFWIKI
 * Apology to Sam
 * Apology to CoD wiki (I have a feeling since I've had a lack of a reply they just want it there)

Your going to excuse the weird sig but it's been breaking pretty much everywhere but the BFWIKI.

 Hyperborrean22 Talk 09:44, March 2, 2014 (UTC)

Cod4... I let you and the other Admins discuss this (again).

I need to talk to you about something. Message me on PSN or get me in chat. I need you to hear this.--  Hyperborrean22 Talk 10:19, March 2, 2014 (UTC) forget the chat thing. Visionary already cleared it up. Don't worry about it.

you are aware your video player for the BFBCV videos is broken right?--  Hyperborrean22 Talk 15:21, March 2, 2014 (UTC)

A little reply would be nice...

oh and sorry for the red links, someone deleted the images on my sig...--  Hyperborrean22 Talk 20:04, March 4, 2014 (UTC) I know. And thanks.-- 18:07, March 5, 2014 (UTC)

RE:Neo
Ya, I've just bee a bit busy to run him at the moment since I've also been trying to get some recordings for here. I'll get Neo working again as soon as I'm able. 02:47, March 6, 2014 (UTC)

Re: Game Template
There shouldn't be any specific policies or rulesets to the template and its use. And I don't really think there's not so much for me to tell about it, other than technical stuff which I'm not very familiar with since I didn't create the template, but for you to import it all you need to do is just copy everything and change the names and images appropriately, I suppose. 03:55, March 15, 2014 (UTC)

Re: Vandal
Yeah, I've already been monitoring Recent Changes so I'll block him if he decides to do anything stupid anymore. Thanks for the heads-up regardless. 04:49, March 15, 2014 (UTC)

Re:Hey
I'm around. But I currently have someone round my house, so the PC is shared. So if this is about Neo, I'm afraid I can't do much with him for the time being. However I'll try to fit some time in to remove the odd image. 04:07, March 24, 2014 (UTC)

RE:
But I really wanted him for a president. Also, it's not April 1st here :P  Kylet357  ·  talk  01:59, April 1, 2014 (UTC)

RE:CSS
If you mean the .css looks like pastebin, then that's how it's supposed to look. You should still be able to edit it just fine. The design just got altered so it doesn't look like a normal page. I'm not really a coder so I'm not too sure about why they changed it to look like that, but I'm certain Sactage, Cod4 or Kat might be able to tell you more. 06:02, April 25, 2014 (UTC)
 * The new interface is simply more comfortable to edit for coding purposes compared to what is essentially a notepad. 08:14, April 25, 2014 (UTC)

Re:Vandal
Thank you for the report, the account is now globally banned. Feel free to use the VSTF Wiki for reports of this nature in the future as well. Thanks! 12:26, May 2, 2014 (UTC)

Re:Vietnam
I saw it earlier. It looks fine and well sourced. So I've more or less left it be. 00:42, May 6, 2014 (UTC)

RE:CSS
You're better off telling Cod4 that. I tried to update the css best I could during the change over, but I don't know too much about code, so a few elements are still a bit broken. 03:31, May 6, 2014 (UTC)

Re:Blog
Apologies for the delayed reply. It looks like another news team member moved it. Thanks for notifying me! 13:00, May 9, 2014 (UTC)

RE:Trans
I know how to, but it's easier to show someone then explain it. So here's a page we have on trans'ing images: User:Smuff/Transparency Guide. 16:59, May 10, 2014 (UTC)

Re: Twitter
I did it ages ago so i can't 100% remember, but basically I got an embed thing from twitter and then pasted the code into a mediawiki page. Then I just pasted mediawikipagename into the template page. 18:22, May 17, 2014 (UTC)

RE:Source
Apologies for late response, I've not had the PC free recently. But I'm not too sure how the source for that page works.You may be better off asking Callofduty4, KATANAGOD or Sactage if you haven't already. 20:09, June 1, 2014 (UTC)

Congratulations
Hey Awyman, congrats on becoming a Wikia Star!

21:11, June 1, 2014 (UTC)

Sig
I've restored page. For some reason it was deleted for being a duplicate, but why I don't know. 13:15, June 23, 2014 (UTC)

Re:Hi
Hey Awyman,

I'm going good thanks. Sorry for not editing on the BF wiki, I'm just having trouble finding the time to edit, even on this wiki. Anyway, how are you going? 04:14, June 25, 2014 (UTC)

Re: Rank
Well, she's apparently Specialist Kyra Mosely, USAF. So in the CoDverse Specialist is a USAF rank. 16:49, November 2, 2014 (UTC)

We don't do that for any other character. 16:55, November 2, 2014 (UTC)
 * The only way for us to note down that specialist isn't a USAF rank would be to break COD:IRL. In the Ghosts universe, that is a rank, regardless of if it is or isn't in real life. 17:50, November 2, 2014 (UTC)

RE:Chat
You'll have to ask Kat. I don't really handle the code. 10:37, February 22, 2015 (UTC)

RE
I'm about SL 25. Got far and died about 5 times actually. Me and my bro keep count but I assume we'll get there in no time! 03:34, March 31, 2015 (UTC)

RE:Protecting Paris related pages
thank you for the advice, but nothings happened yet so we should wait first and see if theres any vandalism in relation to that. if there is, then the pages should definitely be protected. 01:07, November 16, 2015 (UTC)

Alerting you to a sock
Hey Awyman. I just wanted to let you know it recently came to our attention that User:NotLessOrEqual has the socks User:P1NGA$ and User:RoachTheInteCollector. The latter being used for impersonation. I wanted to alert you to this as I noticed he has been using the Battlefield wiki with both his NotLessOrEqual and P1NGA$ accounts. On this wiki he was using them to revert videos back to his own after being told they weren't allowed, so I figure I'd give you a heads up in case he's been using that alternate account for malicious means on the BF wiki as well. 15:54, February 11, 2017 (UTC)

RE:Bar
I think the new design has stemmed from us testing the new design Wikia/Fandom was coming out with rather than anything we made. Get in contact with Brandon and I'm sure he can set something up. 18:33, April 22, 2017 (UTC)
