Thanks...
...for the comment you made in support of my proposed admin nomination. I've been on an extended wikibreak the past month or so due to having recently relocated to start my job, so I will need to reconsider after getting back into the swing of things over the next few months, but I just wanted to drop a quick note letting you know I appreciated your encouragement. — PSUMark2006   talk  |  contribs  00:25, 10 June 2007 (UTC)
 * You're welcome! It shouldn't take you long to get back into the swing of things. You're a good user, and I think you'll make a good administrator. Acalamari 00:28, 10 June 2007 (UTC)

My RfA :)

 * You're welcome. :) I was pleased to support. Acalamari 20:53, 10 June 2007 (UTC)

Happy Acalamari's Day!

 * Thanks for the day! This is a surprise! Thank you so much for it Phaedriel! Acalamari 01:14, 11 June 2007 (UTC)
 * You deserve that and so much more, sweetie! :) I'll reply to your email asap, promised! Love,  P h a e d r i e l  01:18, 11 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Well, I'm glad we're friends. That means a lot to me. :) Acalamari 01:23, 11 June 2007 (UTC)

Happy you day, Ace :), I uploaded an image of Amanda Michalka. I hope it suits the article! -- SWEETCA RM EN ♥  02:26, 11 June 2007 (UTC)

Barnstar
Thank you! It's very kind and thoughtful of you, and it has made my day. :-) SlimVirgin (talk) 01:51, 12 June 2007 (UTC)
 * You're very welcome! You've done great work with articles related to Judaism, animals, and other good topics; you well and truly deserved that star, and all the others you've earned. :) Acalamari 01:55, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

12, 000!
Heya, Ace, congrats on your 12, 000 edits (I know I'm overdue to say this) But anyways, congrats! -- SWEETCA RM EN ♥  17:30, 12 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks. I reached it yesterday. Acalamari 17:36, 12 June 2007 (UTC)
 * I should start paying more attention. I reached passed 500 edits.... not many edits though :(. -- SWEETCA RM EN ♥  23:45, 12 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Actually, I found out today that I'm 1292 on List of Wikipedians by number of edits, making me one of the users with the highest amount edits. I'm higher than I thought I would be. Acalamari 23:47, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

 * You continually change the formats of infoboxes when you have been told many times not to do so. I've given you links to help you with formats, but you keep reverting to non-standard formats. Not listening to other users and reverting them is disruptive. Acalamari 21:46, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

Thanks Acalamari
Thank you, Acalamari. I really appreciated the messages from you and the others, It was a very nice surprise when I logged on today. :) Take care, Sarah 06:17, 13 June 2007 (UTC)
 * You're welcome for the message! :) Acalamari 16:59, 13 June 2007 (UTC)

Please except my apology
My last revert of Paris Hilton was done because I thought it was vandalism. Please except my apology for not knowing what you were doing. Crohnie Gal Talk / Contribs  12:27, 13 June 2007 (UTC)
 * There is no need to apologize if you thought it was vandalism. I should have left a message on your talk page asking you about your edit instead of reverting you, so I apologize to you for my action. Don't worry about what you did. :) Acalamari 16:08, 13 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks, and don't ever worry about reverting me, I don't get upset at all. I just felt stupid for not understanding what you had done and felt an apology was do because I didn't know.  Thanks again,  Crohnie Gal  Talk / Contribs  16:14, 13 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Don't feel stupid, I've made loads of mistakes on Wikipedia, and my reversion was one, as I should have asked you. Here, have a WikiCookie. :) Acalamari 16:21, 13 June 2007 (UTC) Acalamari 16:21, 13 June 2007 (UTC)

Bold
Way to be BOLD here. I see nothing wrong with it. -- Chrislk02 (Chris Kreider) 18:07, 13 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Well, I just wanted to be sure. People didn't like it when I declined unblocks a few months ago so I thought I'd double check to be sure. After all, non-admins aren't supposed to close debates that are deletes (for obvious reasons) though I believed that was an exception. Acalamari 18:09, 13 June 2007 (UTC)

!!!
Amazing! Simply amazing!!! I can't believe that I'm on that list!!! It's a dream come true... :) Well, I guess 3074th isn't all that bad since there are on Wikipedia... Also, that list must be a bit outdated because I'm pretty sure that I have about 6000 edits; whatever though. Thanks for letting me know! (Congrats on being 1291th, by the way.) :)  *Cremepuff  222*  20:21, 13 June 2007 (UTC)


 * In my excitement I forgot to sign... :) *Cremepuff  222*  20:21, 13 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Good isn't it? Yes, it is a bit out of date; it says I have 10,800-odd edits when I know I'm in the 12,000s, and you are in the 6,000s. Even so, it's still amazing we're on that list in the first place. If you include bots, indefinitely blocked users, banned users, users who have left, and IPs, we drop about a hundred places, but we're still pretty high up. Acalamari 20:24, 13 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Ah, yes, that makes sense. I guess I have a long way to go in becoming #1... :) Over 150,000 edits is just...amazing! *Cremepuff  222*  20:26, 13 June 2007 (UTC)

Just one question...
Why are you not an administrator?!?!?!?!? ANNAfoxlover 00:47, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Why RfA from March was not a success, which is the reason I am not an administrator. Acalamari 01:38, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Well, that was a very long time ago, and I remember how much you have taught me, which has helped me become a better Wikipedian, possibly even a better person, and I have no clue why you are not an administrator. It seems as if people think that just because you're 16 means that you can't do things as well as us older Wikipedians. I think all people have different levels of intelligence, and yours, when it comes to Wikipedian knowledge, is much better than mine. I still think you should be an administrator because without you, I probably would not be talking to you right now, because without your advice, I probably would have been blocked, and if you were not here, Deskana would be the only one to give me advice, and he is not very encouraging, as you are. I just can't believe you are not an administrator. If you were an administrator, I'm sure you would help many other people. I find you very encouraging. I could go on for the rest of the week saying these things, but they are all true. ANNAfoxlover 02:16, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
 * I thank you for your very kind words, but I actually think Deskana has been a fine adopter. I don't think Deskana, or anyone else for that matter, wants to see you blocked. Although you still have a lot of learning to go, you have improved greatly since I first met you. I read about the edit war you had a few weeks ago, and seriously, edit warring is bad, trust me/
 * If you want to read my RfA, go to the "Nominations" section on my user page and click on "Acalamari". There you can read what happened. Again, thank you for your very kind words. Acalamari 03:34, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
 * So Acalamari..How much did you pay Anna to say this [[image:SMocking.gif|19px]]..Kidding..She is telling the truth though..and yeah keep up the good job..-- Cometstyles 02:40, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Heh, heh, no paying here! :) Acalamari 03:34, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
 * I read through your RfA, and I really think that other people thinking that just because you are 16 means that you are insecure. They also say you are overly-sensitive. I do not believe that. Deskana is a little too overly-sensitive for me, and he's an administrator. Not that he's a bad adopter; he's helped me very much, but you are much more friendly towards other Wikipedians, and just because you are 16 doesn't mean you can't be a good administrator. They also said you didn't have much experience. Just because one is 16 doesn't mean he is not smart enough to be in charge! Hey if you were 4 or 97 I wouldn't care. And I'm sure you've learned a lot more by now. ANNAfoxlover 14:30, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
 * (Don't mind my butting in) Administrators have been promoted at Acalamari's age before. We try not to base our opinions on someone on their age, and usually don't even know an editor's personal details. It seems to me that most people in the RfA just wanted a chance to see that Acalamari had learned from some previous mistakes and IMO that learning has been demonstrated. Natalie 14:46, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Indeed. There are a number of admins and at least one 'crat that are younger than Acalamari. And yes, there were comments that he didn't have a thick enough skin for adminship, to be able to handle the kind of abuse that gets dished up. I think that's been well disproven at this stage. Hmmmmm - it's been nearly three months now :) - A l is o n  ☺ 15:29, 14 June 2007 (UTC)


 * (Unindent to respond to all) ANNAfoxlover, one of my supporters in that RfA, Newyorkbrad, said that some of the concerns raised by the opposition were legitimate, and I agree entirely with him. Most of the reasons for opposition were' about issues I had to deal with (overreacting, followed by thin-skinnnedness, was the most serious, I believe; my old habit of overreacting has caused problems in the past). Only two users said I didn't have enough experience, and both of them were user's I had had conflicts with. Everyone else, as Natalie Erin said, wanted to make sure that I learned from my mistakes, and they opposed (I presume) out of caution, not because they thought I would be a disruptive administrator. In some respects, I am glad that RfA didn't succeed; it would have been terrible to have overreacted to something silly and ending up with an early de-sysopping.
 * To Natalie Erin and Alison, thank you for joining this conversation and giving ANNAfoxlover a good explanation to her questions. I was asleep/getting up when you posted those messages! :) Acalamari 16:58, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Well, wouldn't you want to run again? ANNAfoxlover 23:10, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Oh yes, definitely, but for the last three months I've working to improve myself as an editor overall instead of just improving only to become and administrator. Acalamari 23:13, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
 * OK. I know that even if this doesn't work, you will eventually become an administrator. Please fill out the information at Requests for adminship/Acalamari 2. I can't wait until you are an administrator! Good luck! And thank you for helping me when I needed the help most! ANNAfoxlover 20:57, 16 June 2007 (UTC)
 * No ANNAfoxlover, I will not fill out the information at that RfA. I did not ask for that nomination, and to be honest, if I ran at this moment, the RfA will fail. You see, I am the nominator of two active RfA's, one of which is highly controversial. It would be a terrible idea for me to run. Thank you, but I'm going to see if that RfA can be speedy deleted. Also, someone's offered to nominate me anyway, and they weren't going to do it for some time anyway. Acalamari 21:49, 16 June 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for your support in my recent, unsuccessful RfA. It's much appreciated. IvoShandor 16:16, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

re: Nomination.
Again, thanks for the nom. Yeah, I answered the questions - now not sure what to do? I probably missed something on the page that tells me how to get my page included. I'll check it again. - eo 22:47, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
 * It's okay, I'll do it for you. :) For future reference, see Requests for adminship/nominate. Acalamari 22:49, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Ha, thanks - I was just on there, reading it. Guess it doesn't look too good that I swooped thru it without reading the instructions properly?  Shh, don't tell anyone! - eo 22:53, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Heh heh, it's all right; I didn't know how to do it the first time either...and I was the nominator! Acalamari 22:56, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

A question
What is TOR?<font face="Brush Script MT" size="4"><font color="#FF 45 00">Arnon Chaffin (<font color="DA A5 20">I'm listening! ) 00:30, 16 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Take a look at our article on tor - Tor (anonymity network), in effect it's an open proxy, so take a look at No open proxies, open proxies are IP addresses that anyone can connect to and use around the world - they increase vandal dodging of autoblocks and checkuser requests.  Ry an P os tl et hw ai te  00:33, 16 June 2007 (UTC)

Hi Acalamari, Thank you for your supportive comments at my RfA. Hmm, and I always thought Calamari had something to do with reeds. Shyamal 03:45, 17 June 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for supporting my RFA. I hope I will live up to your expectation. Let me know if you need any help, or I make any mistake. --ChoChoPK (球球PK) (talk | contrib) 23:59, 17 June 2007 (UTC)

Some useless info...
Kelly Clarkson said that her next album will have country influences. --Smokizzy (talk) 03:23, 19 June 2007 (UTC)
 * I don't trust that source; it's a blog. Thanks for finding it, but we need a more reliable source than a blog, as blogs aren't reliable sources. Acalamari 03:27, 19 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Not critiquing your edit. :-) We'll worry about it when it comes out. --Smokizzy (talk) 03:33, 19 June 2007 (UTC)
 * That's okay; I hope a better source can be found. :) Acalamari 03:35, 19 June 2007 (UTC)

Luckycharm24 image
Thanks for the note. I saw the image. I'd rather leave it there for now: I'm willing to let her come back to Wikipedia and tag the image properly (it probably is taken by a friend of hers so I have no problem with her using it on her userpage in the future). If she returns to post the same nonsense all over the place, I'll block her for longer but let's cross that bridge when we get there. Pascal.Tesson 17:35, 19 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Okay, that's fine, since you've seen the image; I wasn't going to nominate it for speedy deletion or anything. If it's of the user herself, then as you said, it can be used to depict her (as long as it's tagged correctly, otherwise it'll get deleted at a later date anyway); I can think of several users who have images on themselves on their userpages so that's not a problem. Acalamari 18:04, 19 June 2007 (UTC)

Thanks a lot ;)
Appreciate the Barnstar, man. QuasyBoy 15:27, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
 * You're welcome! You're great at spotting those small errors! :) Acalamari 19:45, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I guess I am. QuasyBoy 15:46, 21 June 2007

Harolyn Blackwell Edits
Thank you for the interest you have put in this page. Some of your edits were fine but I do not think you should delete sources. The IMBD source is the only source that is on the page that gives Harolyn Blackwell's actual birthday and therefore is an essential citation. I created this article and did all the research for it so I should know. As a general rule I prefer to use more 'respectable' sources of information but no other sources provided this particular information. Before deleting a source i suggest you ask about it on a pages talk page first. Thank you.Nrswanson 20:19, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
 * I removed it because the IMDb is not a reliable source. Can you find another source somewhere for her? If not, I'll see if I can find one for you because it would be nice to remove that source by the IMDb. As for removing sources, some should be removed if they're not from reliable websites. Acalamari 21:47, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Lol. If you can find one let me know. I've spent several weeks pouring through articles on her and i have yet to find another article that mentions her year of birth or age. I put the IMBD source back and i suggest we leave it until a better source is found. I agree with you that IMBD is a preferble source to not mention. In this case it happens to be the only one with the info I need. So far anyway...Nrswanson 04:49, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

Thanks :)

 * Ah...you're welcome! Thanks for the piece of cake! Acalamari 21:51, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

CharlotteWebb
I appreciate your expression of thanks for my work on closing CharlotteWebb. It's always an unhappy event for me to remove someone since presumably it is something they wanted. Perhaps she will come back and edit again and do better next time. Cheers, Cecropia 00:23, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
 * You're welcome, but at least you got to close Ericorbit's RfA successfully. I'm glad at least one of my two nominations was a success. :) Acalamari 00:27, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

Thank you...
...for your support at my RFA. I've already seen your name several times while helping out with the backlogs, so keep up the good work!-- Kubigula (talk) 02:19, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

watchlist answer
Hi Acalamari, I just checked and I have 2056 items on my watchlist right now. I don't keep track of every single item every day, but I do skim the edit summaries of the most current few hundred items that pop up, and I base my decision of what to edit partially on what I see. Some of the contents include users whose pages I watch for vandalism (yours included), but most of them are topics related to things I've edited in the past. For example, the contribution I am most proud of is the article on lung transplantation, which I wrote entirely from scratch (see the history), and which has remained mostly as I wrote it. I believe every single link on the page (including the articles on the lung allocation score and the ventilation/perfusion scan, which I also wrote) is on my watchlist, in case I need to refer to them in the future. I hope that clarifies things. -- Kyok o  22:34, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Okay, that's fine; I was just curious. 2056 pages is a lot (double if you include talk pages, unless you already included them), and as I said, I find I'm occupied with 66 pages. I suppose it depends on the page you watch as well; pages like Alison's and Phaedriel's talk pages and Christina Aguilera (which I all watch) tend to change everyday, while Fergie (singer) and Raptor: Call of the Shadows (which I also watch) aren't edited as often as that. Acalamari 22:42, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Talk pages don't count towards the total number. That's why you'll see on your watchlist, for example, "Raptor: Call of the Shadows (Talk|History)", which counts as a single item. I forgot to add that I also watch pages that I intend to reference for future articles or projects that I am currently working on. This all results in a lengthy watchlist that could probably use some pruning, but I'm not hampered by it because I don't closely follow every single item. -- Kyok o  23:06, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
 * It's okay, I knew that talk pages aren't included. :) With talk pages, you have 4112 pages in your watchlist. Anyway, I didn't want to bug you with this; I was just curious to know how you kept track. Thank you for telling me the answer. :) I hope I wasn't a pest. Acalamari 23:13, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Ah, I see what you mean... really, where is my mind today? No, you're not being a pest. -- Kyok o  23:21, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Phew! :) That's good to know. Acalamari 23:22, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

My userpage
Hey Acalamari, thanks for your message. Sorry for the delay replying, but I haven't been online for a few days. I noticed the problem with the RfA monitor not updating properly the other day but, as you said, it seems to be fixed now. Of course I don't mind you using my page to monitor the RfAs, but if you prefer, you can always watchlist the actual monitor page or transclude it onto your own page. The RfA page which on my userpage is here: User:Dragons flight/RFA summary and as well as that one, there is the Bureaucrats's monitor page here: Bureaucrats' noticeboard/RfA Report. I don't mind at all if you prefer using my userpage to watch your RfAs, but just thought I'd let you know you can watchlist these pages if you prefer. They get updated every hour. Anyway, apologies again for the delay replying and thanks for your message and for keeping an eye on vandalism to my pages. It is much appreciated. Take care, Sarah 06:44, 26 June 2007 (UTC) P.S. Also, thanks for your kind comment on VirtualSteve's RfA about my candidates. It was a very nice thing to say and muchly appreciated. :) Sarah 06:44, 26 June 2007 (UTC)
 * There's no need to apologize to me about not responding quickly; I understand. As for why I use your user page: it's just something I've become used to. I believe I've used your user page to monitor the RfA's since Ryan Postlethwaite's RfA from nearly four months ago; it's just more convenient than going to any other place; and, as I said, I'm just used to doing it. What I said on VirtualSteve's RfA is completely true: your candidates do have a habit of becoming excellent administrators (I mean that in a good way); Newyorkbrad and Riana are proof of that. Acalamari 17:18, 26 June 2007 (UTC)

Hi there; go to Requests for adminship/Acalamari 3. In case you wonder, it is numeral 3 because of the recent aborted nomination, which I have mentioned.

Ok, fair enough; I used Requests for adminship 3 because the previous one dis contain a minimal numer of comments. But it all comes to the same place, does it not?--<b style="color:red;">Anthony.bradbury</b><sup style="color:black;">"talk" 23:17, 26 June 2007 (UTC)

Thank you
I appreciate it. More to come on certain issues, I think, for whatever it's worth. Cheers, Kat Walsh (spill your mind?) 05:18, 27 June 2007 (UTC)
 * I am glad. :) You are very welcome. Acalamari 15:36, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

RFA
Hey I just asked you a new question on your RFA. I'd appreciate if you took a look at it and answered.  Black Harry  (Highlights|Contribs) 18:54, 27 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks; I'm writing the response now. Acalamari 18:59, 27 June 2007 (UTC)


 * You are very welcome. Good luck! Acalamari 22:52, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

Your RFA
Darn. I was about to ask you if you wanted me to nominate you when I saw your RFA! Good luck!  Cat tleG  irl   talk 06:37, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
 * I've sent you an E-mail. :) Acalamari 16:22, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Replied :).  Cat tleG  irl   talk 07:32, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

Your RfA
Acalamari, you might remember that last time you were nominated for adminship, you observed that I had written a rather long comment. Well, I decided to maintain the tradition with another rather long comment! I feel a duty to give you another very honest assessment because of the barnstar you gave me for "being completely honest in [my]...!vote". I hope I have honoured the barnstar! :) Sarah 11:17, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

Boink!
Email alert! Belated one, in fact, as I wrote to you a few hours ago ;) Love you sweetie!  P h a e d r i e l  - 16:16, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
 * An E-mail? Thanks! :) I haven't even responded to your other one yet! (Sorry!) Acalamari 16:18, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Hey, no worries, you're in the middle of your RfA! There's no hurry, and I'm not going anywhere. Love ;)  P h a e d r i e l  - 16:19, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
 * E-mail re-sent! Please let me know if it got through, sweets. Hugs,  P h a e d r i e l  - 06:35, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

Thanks
Thanks, I didn't know. I will wait though. I don't want to create opposition over something small. Karrmann 18:56, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
 * That's fine. Thanks for listening. Acalamari 18:57, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

Just out of interest...
Thinking about this based on a few recent comments on your RfA, how do you pronounce "Acalamari"? Does it rhyme with "calamari" or "calamity"? - <font face="Trebuchet MS">Zeibura (Talk) 20:14, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Here, see this new text I've added to my user page . That should clear things up. :) Acalamari 22:05, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

Hey...
Just a note to say that your RfA is going really well (like you didn't know already!) I was just re-reading your last RfA, and I just wanted to say that if you ever need anything, you can ask me. You've matured exponentially since the last one, but if you ever have doubts about anything, I'll be glad to try and help out. Take care, Riana (talk)  02:39, 29 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the kind message; I am glad the community thinks I've improved from three months ago. Don't worry, if I ever need help, I won't hesitate to ask you or any other experienced administrators for it. I'd rather ask for help than make a mess. :) Acalamari 03:14, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

Re:vandal
Haha, I don't even like Paris all that much, but damn, people leave enough vandalisms to her page to keep it on my watchlist and keep the laughs rolling :). <font color="#084B8A">Darth <font color="#008080">Griz98  01:42, 30 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Indeed. The page was briefly not semi-protected a few weeks ago: barely lasted an hour before it was re-protected. Acalamari 01:44, 30 June 2007 (UTC)
 * It's probably because she's all to easy to poke at, easy vandal target, like George Bush. I gave that user a pretty good warning after they added that up there. <font color="#084B8A">Darth <font color="#008080">Griz98  01:46, 30 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Yes: all we need to do is revert and move on (which means, I should be quiet :) ). Acalamari 01:49, 30 June 2007 (UTC)

RFA thanks

 * You're welcome, Jreferee! :) Excellent success: no consensus last time to a near-unanimous tally of 95/1/1 this time! :) Acalamari 16:17, 30 June 2007 (UTC)

Good Luck!
Good luck with your RfA -- you'll make an excellent administrator, I'm sure. P3net 16:39, 30 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks. :) Acalamari 20:13, 30 June 2007 (UTC)

Wikipedian days
Thanks, Acalamari. Sharon's really sweet for doing that (actually I think it helps the project a lot; such intangible, unmeasurable little boosts help people to be better contributors). Antandrus (talk) 16:54, 30 June 2007 (UTC)
 * I agree; helps make Wikipedia a greater place to edit. :) Acalamari 20:15, 30 June 2007 (UTC)

Thanks
Thanks you for the warm welcome and for showing me some helpful pages.

My RfA
Thank you for participating in my RfA. It was successful, and I am now, may God have mercy on us all, an administrator. Look at all the new buttons! I had heard about 'protect,' 'block user,' and 'delete,' but no one told me about 'kill,' 'eject,' and 'purée.' I appreciate the trust the community has in me, and I'll try hard not to delete the main page or block Jimbo. -FisherQueen (Talk) 17:49, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
 * I am sure you will do just fine. :) You are very welcome for the strong support. Acalamari 18:00, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

Thanks!
Thanks very much for the birthday message! Hope you're okay, - <font face="Trebuchet MS">Zeibura (Talk) 00:28, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
 * You're welcome! I'm fine thanks. Acalamari 01:33, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

For you

 * Thank you very much, Darthgriz98! :) I'll copy that to my awards subpage! I appreciate the recognition! Acalamari 01:49, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
 * You're very welcome, keep up the good work. :) <font color="#084B8A">Darth <font color="#008080">Griz98 01:58, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

Re:the revert
Your welcome heppy editing ♥Fighting for charming Love♥ 02:18, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

And same from me =) SMC89 02:20, 3 July 2007 (UTC)


 * Your welcome again mabye you should get your page protected ♥Fighting for charming Love♥ 02:59, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
 * My user page was just semi-protected by Alison. We'll see about the talk page. Acalamari 03:01, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Anytime, you know that when you get your talk page blanked numerous times in a row, your doing something right. <font color="#151B8D">K <font color="#7D1B7E">O <font color="#6D7B8D ">S | <font color="#461B7E">talk  03:03, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Yes, and when both the user page and the talk page are blanked multiple times in a row, that's even better! :) Acalamari 03:06, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Hey, if you need anybody blocked or anything protected my admin tools are at your service. <font color="#084B8A">Darth <font color="#008080">Griz98 03:04, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
 * My user page is semi-protected, and the vandals are blocked. Do you want to semi-protect my talk for me please? Acalamari 03:06, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Done! Next time - do it yourself, ok? :-) - A l is o n  ☺ 03:08, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
 * I protected the talk page, that should stop vandals for now. I had one come back after 2 months of not saying anything to tell me that I'm gay and hot haha. <font color="#084B8A">Darth <font color="#008080">Griz98 03:10, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks to you all. The semi-protection should stop them; unless they come back after it expires. Acalamari 03:12, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Gah! The page log says I unprot'd it. How'd that happen? - A l is o n  ☺ 03:28, 3 July 2007 (UTC) (needs coffee)
 * Heh, heh; I don't know! Darthgriz98 got to semi-protect it though. Acalamari 03:31, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
