User talk:Stwalkerster/Archive August 2009

Message
Please robots, don't mod this message. I have a personal notice to give to this specific user, and I would very much like for him to get it.

I'm also sorry to have to contact him in this manner, I know no other way to contact him, and what I have to say is very important.

This is an account I made for a friend so he can alter an article to make dinosaurs look like they're still alive. I wish to apologize for doing this, as it isn't even funny vandalizing articles anymore. I wish a request that you, Stwalkerster, ban this account for eternity.

This user is Crashman Alpha, I admit my transgressions, and I will not vandalize wikipedia again. I do not care if you unban my account or not, as there is nothing I would need it for, there's not really anything I need to add.

I wish for Stwalkerster to get this message, and I wish for him to be the one to ban this account. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Claud Striff (talk • contribs) 01:46, 1 August 2009 (UTC)

Banned?
This is what I posted to Chzz's talk:I've been banned from the freenode network, so I can't get back at all. Can you PLEASE help me out by getting unbanned? Some sites have blocked me because of my system having a virus, but I've reinstalled my WHOLE computer. I'm very steamed right now. Hope to talk to you soon. (I think that every single active user should get the addicted to wikipedia template.) Please help me Stwalkerster!--Cubs197 (talk) 14:36, 31 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Okay.... what's the message you get when you try to connect?  Stwalkerster  [  talk  ]  13:20, 1 August 2009 (UTC)
 * This resolved itself. Magic, I expect.  Chzz  ►  13:40, 1 August 2009 (UTC)
 * I think the thing that did it was that I must have had a virus or something like that because the message it gave me was that I had been blocked from two sites (I don't remember them.) One said that I probably had some kind of virus and after reading all this (blah blah blah) you could request to be removed. Since I reinstalled my entire system, I knew that I didn't have a virus, so I requested to be removed and it said that I would have to wait. I tried to reconnect again after a while of waiting and it worked. I don't know what the other site did but they must have unblocked me so I'm all good now. It was weird, and what was even more weird was that it happened on that freak-out-day (31 July) when Wikipedia decided to close the site for maintenance I believe. I even wrote a page when Wikipedia was back online: User:Cubs197/news/system.--Cubs197 (talk) 18:07, 8 August 2009 (UTC)

ACC Interface
Stwalkerster, Hello! I am a deactivated user on the account creation interface, and saw that you were one of the tool admins. Would it be possible to unlock my account? I was without net access for a while, and had no time at school to work with Wiki. Now that I have my own machine, I would like to get involved in ACC again. Once the semester starts (Aug 24) I expect to be on Wiki about twice a week.

If not, I understand. I do enjoy working with ACC though, and thought I would give it a shot talking to you. Thanks you in advance!

Take care, Pax85 (talk) 05:00, 5 August 2009 (UTC)

hello i did not understood why the pekwm-s page pekWM was deleted thanks mardi_soir 22:21, 29 August 2009 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mardi soir (talk • contribs)
 * Hi! It was proposed for deletion, without objection for 5 days, and was deleted. The concern was: "Non-notable software. Ghits are primarily downloads and forums."  Stwalkerster  [  talk  ]  14:42, 30 August 2009 (UTC)
