Back into the fray...?
Hi, KOS! Been working some much smaller wikis as of late; this is just getting crazy with vandals. I'm adminning a few smaller projects like this one. Drop me an e-mail when you have a moment. Been doing a bit of anonymous RC patrolling...man, there are some real freaks and weirdos out there. Anyway, take care. You'll know who this is when you click the link. 74.62.6.84 01:46, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Hey!! Yes I wrote you an email, it appears it was lost, how have you been? Really great that you stopped by! K O S | talk 01:56, 26 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Doin' groovy, thanks. And, thanks for swinging by the other wiki.  When I saw the thrusting and parrying you were doing to the vandals over on the blocked users page, I couldn't help but smile.  This place really gets under your skin and stays there.  Try sending another e-mail if possible.  If you don't hear from me right away, leave word at the other site.  As far as returning here, I've thought of it, played around doing the RC patrolling...but I'm not sure I want the stress.  If I do, it'll be strictly quiet editing.  Done lots of work on the other wikis that could be moved here. 74.62.6.84 02:36, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

Question regarding a user
Apparently, UJonk has been creating User:--- pages (see his contributions) and all I see on them is that they have been indefinitely blocked.

I'm just wondering if these are real users, and why it says UJonk has created all of them.

Can you please clear this issue up? I'm a bit confused here.

Old warnings
Hi - I deliberately blanked the warnings at User talk:218.214.70.16. They were all old and no longer relevant. I believe leaving old warnings dilutes the message and makes it harder for the anon to find the latest message. I would not delete warnings given in the last few days but warnings back to November 2005 just make it harder to dind the latest - the Nov 2005 may not refer tot he same computer user. I discussed this at Wikipedia talk:Removing warnings poll and got the response ''Antique IP talk pages are speedy deletion candidates. Whenever I run into one with only old warnings when I'm about to warn someone, I delete it before adding a new warning. I understand that not everyone who does RC patrol has admin powers, but I don't see the problem with anyone blanking the page before adding new warnings (or even without adding new warnings).'' JYolkowski Regsards--Arktos talk 02:29, 29 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Yes hello, I reverted because of this diff, which was done by the anon and not you. Vandals should not remove warnings from their talk pages, and this is what this one did. I'm fine with you blanking talk pages and what not, but I'd like to say I do not appreciate your use of the rollback feature to revert me. That is not what that tool is for.

Blocked username
Hello. I see that you block my username of the folowing reason: Autoblocked because your IP address has been recently used by "W1N570N5M17H". It is also written there that my ip is 72.14.192.33

It must be a mistake. First of all I DO NOT USE this IP(and never used it before) My IP is 88.215.149.10(for the last 5 mounth). Secondly - you can check the contributions assumed to my username and ip and see that there are no spam or any actions kinda of that. Thank you Sasha l 12:14, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

Any "your mother" term in usernames are blocked
Why do you think usernames with the term "your mother" (or similar) will be blocked on sight? Thanks. Big  top  19:23, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Because they have the potential to offend people. Do you think they shouldn't? <font color="#151B8D">K <font color="#7D1B7E">O <font color="#6D7B8D ">S | <font color="#461B7E">talk 19:24, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
 * If I may add: "Names that are recognised as slurs or insults", this statement comes straight off the Username policy page. Now the expression Your mom is an insult towards ones mother. Besides the only name I've blocked recently that I can recall is this one which also uses the "@yahoo.com" which could also have been blocked with the because of the potential attracting spammers. Hopes that will clear this up further for you. <font color="#151B8D">K <font color="#7D1B7E">O <font color="#6D7B8D ">S | <font color="#461B7E">talk  19:46, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

Thank you!
Thank you for your assistance with the edits made by 65.182.28.194 on the Rainforest Alliance page... the IP address is registered in San Jose, Costa Rica (one of the three major Rainforest Alliance headquarters) - so these edits are a bit suspicious to me. I am still relatively new to Wikipedia - what is the procedure when dealing with such vandalism? We can't revert these edits forever... Thanks again for your help! Quebecois1983 18:24, 3 September 2006 (UTC)
 * When a page is being vandalized the editor who is making the edits are usually warned with templates. See a list at Template_messages/User_talk_namespace. If after a certain amount of edits the user does not stop they are usually blocked, for a period of time deemed appropriate by the blocking admin. See Vandalism as well. Thanks for the message.

Hi
Hi, I've noticed that there are ip user who created new signature. I mean I'm so curious about these two IP. User:68.39.174.238 and User:69.145.123.171. Are these IP user really IP?

Sorry
Sorry, I did not vandalize my own talk page I wanted to add deletion in my talk page but I did a mistake, I wrote a deletion instead of delete, anyway, I did candidate my talk page for deletion speedy, and feel free to not leave a spam on my talk page after deletion. Thanks for understanding. Evidental 03:50, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

again?
Thanks for the advice. noted and got it, I do the archives. but if I did a typo in first try don't consider it as a vandalism. I wrote deletion instead of delete and you consider this as vandalism? sorry how to this I should add db-owner within double { and } ? I am affraid to do a typo and again it would be considered as vandalism! :-( Evidental 03:51, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
 * It was seen as vandalism because your edit blanked a template. Accidents happen, I know but from my point of view it looked as if you removed past warnings from your talk page and then blanked a template. So yes it was seen as vandalism. Also please remember to sign your comments with ~ 4 tildes. <font color="#151B8D">K <font color="#7D1B7E">O <font color="#6D7B8D ">S | <font color="#461B7E">talk 07:30, 10 September 2006 (UTC)
