User talk:Revvie/Archives/2

Where are the rest?
I don't get it, before Halloween, there where about 100 people editing the wikia at a time, every day. Now there are only 2 people, that "random ADS" guy, and user 176.43.202.209. Admins you should promote this wiki, or let your friends know about it, my friends and family aren't into this stuff.

Look, the admins are gone. They don't care about this Wiki anymore. They just LEFT... Seriously? WTF?

I think I know why everyone is gone
Before me and the other guy came, someone was cursing out a number of contributers and admins. Is this true?

(100.40.128.190 23:02, December 14, 2013 (UTC))

I came to this Wikia a LONG time ago, probably a couple of years before you did. And yeah, that could be true, not sure though. I forgot what happened. (By the way, I'm not Orangitu, I'm the guy who reads your memes.) 212.253.103.200 23:21, December 14, 2013 (UTC)

Ban him!
Please ban User:82.18.34.160, I've had problems with that little pig before and now, he's vandalizing many pages! Please block him for a LOOOOONG time so we don't have to see his face here ever again. Thank you.

176.43.197.104 22:00, December 18, 2013 (UTC)

Please stop ignoring us...
Orangitu, why must you ignore us? It's like you abandoned this Wiki. You were a great admin... Were...

Listen, a vandal has created a spam page called "Sliver's Rage". In his summary of the page, he says he's doing this for the Creepypasta Wiki (seriously, we don't care about that kind of Wiki) and he doesn't seem to mean any harm, but I don't believe him. We don't have many admins in this Wiki, so we need you to delete that page. Okay? That's all we want you to do...

About bureaucrat
Hello, I recieved your message about whether or not I believe you'd make a good bureaucrat, and I think this wiki could use it. Being an admin and having well over 500 edits, it seems necessary to have you as a bureaucrat. I am not as active as I was, by the way. I just happened to venture over here after playing the worms game and I found quite a lot of vandalism, so I tried to clean some of it up. I soon forgot about this wiki after losing my internet for a few weeks, and that's why I went inactive. Knowing now that we have at least a few active users, I will certainly be more active. Anyways, sure, I'll leave my opinion. EVILORD BADMAN! &#62;:D (talk)


 * Thanks man, I'll be looking forward to cooperating with you. -- Orangitu | Talk 14:30, January 6, 2014 (UTC)

Hows the wiki? Good, bad you name it! Seems the worms wiki site is not popular anymore, but if you like angry birds you better see it if you have time. If not it's ok. --Hammerbro19 (talk) 09:47, January 6, 2014 (UTC) Hammerbro19

(There was another message here that I wrote, but I removed it because it was kinda mean. If you wanted to see the message, look at this page's history.) 176.43.213.23 14:49, January 7, 2014 (UTC)

Got your feedback. I shoudn't have to say that, but I will try to make this wiki a fun and enjoyable site ok? Cheers! :)--Hammerbro19 (talk) 07:49, January 7, 2014 (UTC)

Okay then, thanks for not snapping at me for saying that. xD 176.43.213.23 14:47, January 7, 2014 (UTC)

Congratulations!
Awesome, you're a bureaucrat now! All we need is more admins and this Wiki will be fine. :D

176.43.213.23 13:31, January 8, 2014 (UTC)


 * Yay! Thanks for the congratulations. I hope we can find some willing candidates in the near future. -- Orangitu | Talk 13:35, January 8, 2014 (UTC)


 * Woah, you replied already?? Didn't see that coming... And don't worry, we'll find more candidates, and maybe one day Koenachtig will come back to this Wiki. :)
 * 176.43.213.23 13:38, January 8, 2014 (UTC)


 * By the way, just curious, who's the founder of this Wiki? I don't think it's Koenachtig, he was never claimed to be the founder. Who is it? 195.214.179.71 20:27, January 10, 2014 (UTC)


 * Nobody knows who found this wiki, all we know is that it was found on March 2006. Koen adopted the wiki in September 2010. -- Orangitu | Talk 21:39, January 10, 2014 (UTC)


 * Nobody knows? Ugh, you gotta be kidding me... I really was hoping to know who this guy was. Let's just pretend Koenachtig founded this Wiki, or maybe you. xD
 * 195.214.179.71 23:08, January 10, 2014 (UTC)


 * Most other wikis knows who their founder is. We don't - you should be proud.


 * ...Hehe, just kidding. On a serious note, We really don't know who our founder was. I've checked the users list - the earliest edit was a wikia creation bot, and there were no edits by the founder even a while after that. I don't even know if the founder intended this wiki to be about the worms games, maybe he wanted to make a database of worm-type computer viruses...? :p


 * I actually wanted to add this part to our info page, but I just couldn't get the words right. -- Orangitu | Talk 05:15, January 11, 2014 (UTC)


 * Well, for some reason that would be kinda depressing if this Wiki really was originally intended to be a database of "worm-type" computer viruses. xD
 * Thanks for the reply! 195.214.179.71 12:01, January 11, 2014 (UTC)

(Reset indentation) Usually, the easiest way to find out who founded a wiki is to (potentially briefly) enable the achievements feature on the wiki, as the founder automatically gets a special badge identifying them as such.

If you don't want to do that or it doesn't work for whatever reason, then I imagine that Wikia Staff might have a way of finding out who the founder is; you'd just want to ask on one of their message walls on Community Central.

Oscuritaforze (talk) 20:37, January 11, 2014 (UTC)


 * Thank you so much, I'd love to meet whoever found this Wiki. You must have a lot of knowledge of Wikias...


 * 195.214.179.71 21:08, January 11, 2014 (UTC)


 * To be honest, I'm not particularly interested to finding out who found this wiki. I guess I could try if the other users are interested. -- Orangitu | Talk 05:33, January 12, 2014 (UTC)


 * Okay, so I tried temporarily enabling achievements as you suggested, but there's nobody on the leaderboard. I assume the founder would have automatically earned the badge after I turned on the feature - making him the only person on the board; is this correct? Forgive me if my post sounds amateurish, I don't have much experience with wikia's features. -- Orangitu | Talk 05:44, January 12, 2014 (UTC)


 * Yeah, that's what should have happened.


 * Hmm, now that I think about it, the date listed on Special:WikiStats as the "date created" might actually be the date that this wiki was migrated to the new (at the time) database. If that is the case, I suppose the founder could have lost their "founder" tag during that process.


 * ...In which case we may never know who founded this wiki. I'm not even sure if staff could help here.


 * Oscuritaforze (talk) 18:12, January 12, 2014 (UTC)


 * This is ridiculous... What kind of fool would create a Wikia and hide himself so no-one ever knows who created it?
 * 176.33.131.47 14:20, January 13, 2014 (UTC)


 * I don't think that was done on purpose. From what I can tell, wikia (probably) moved its wikis to a new database in around 2006, which made the founder lose his founding tag. I guess the founder had already gone inactive around that time, so he never made any edits after the move.


 * I'm not too sure about this theory though, if this was indeed correct, there should already be more than a few articles on the wiki when it was "created". Wikistats listed that at the time of its "founding", the wiki only had two images and zero articles. --Orangitu | Talk 10:02, January 16, 2014 (UTC)


 * You may be right. Good theory, I don't have much knowledge about Wikias though. Oscuritaforze, however, seems to be an expert.
 * This was one long discussion (that I started), maybe we should end it or clean it up. It's strange, I just created this discussion to congratulate you for becoming a bureaucrat, and now we're suddenly talking about the founder of this Wiki and computer viruses. Weird, huh? (And I don't know how to reset the indentation.)

I heard a rumour for another worms game, is it true? Is it a hoax? Am I just confusing this with worms 4:mayhem? I don't know...
Anyway, I found somewhere that a new game (possibly being confused with worms 4:mayhem) called worms mayhem is being developed by team17 and they plan on releasing it on Nintendo handhelds, possibly the 3DS and/or the Wii U, then again, when I search for the next sonic game I find sources from 2005, 2010, etc. Keep in mind this is just a rumour, so don't get your hopes up until team17 (might) announce it.

(54.204.192.62 15:04, January 12, 2014 (UTC))now think of everything not existing, then rest your brain, cause I was told I have a knack at these things, by my mom :)


 * It would have been nice if you've provided me a link to where you found it, that way it would be much easier for me to tell if this rumour is true or not. Anyway, always take rumours with a pinch of salt. -- Orangitu | Talk 12:23, January 13, 2014 (UTC)


 * I doubt it's true. Team17 already created a game called "Worms 4: Mayhem" (which is my favorite Worms game), and it wouldn't make sense if they create another Worms game that has the same title, just without the "4", making it "Worms Mayhem". I think whoever stated there's going to be a new Worms game with that title must've been lying or misunderstood something. Don't believe him.

You've changed your profile picture? WHY?
I know this is a very pointless question, but why did you change your epic profile picture? I know it was really old, but it was awesome. It was the "nuclear symbol" from Worms Armageddon itself, but changed to a blue color. Your new profile picture is... some sort of anime girl??

176.42.81.2 14:02, January 16, 2014 (UTC)


 * I just changed it on a whim. The old picture was really boring me. --Orangitu | Talk 07:53, January 17, 2014 (UTC)

Question about worms 2: Armageddon for xbox 360
Well, as I see in the trailers and photos I see in the game as the landscape deforms the deformed area is replaced by underground dirt and the deformation looks more smooth and better. And the water can be seen in the background too. But when I got the game I got all the DLC and it didn't happen, I saw the settings and I never saw how to make it possible. Can you tell me how to make it possible, if you don't understand what I mean, look at the termite effect on the Termites page, and look at the featured image on the Main page. Whoever knows what I mean please answer.

 * You're probably talking about the graphics quality setting. There are options to enable and disable the effects you're talking about, but these are likely only available on the PC version (Worms: Reloaded). I'm not sure if these settings are available on the console. --Orangitu | Talk 13:30, January 18, 2014 (UTC)


 * well, tell me the setting code, like how I go to the speech page on this wiki like this,

main page>search= poor rapper>speech page>edit=poor rapper| Like that, like, what thing do I press, like I press single player to go to quick match, or customise to go to "manage teams" so where do I go to do that, cause I couldn't find the setting anywhere.

Ban this lunatic, please!
If you check the Wiki Activity, you might notice this retard vandalizing. He vandalized a LOT of pages, luckily someone else "undone" the edits. But you should ban this fool before he vandalizes again. Ban him permanently, please. He vandalized too much.

You might notice I sent a message to him with a lot of rude words, heh... Sorry about that, but the bigger problem is the vandalism.

176.42.81.2 21:33, January 22, 2014 (UTC)


 * Sorry for being late, I couldn't make time to check the wiki yesterday. The user was blocked, thanks for reverting his edits. --Orangitu | Talk 10:26, January 23, 2014 (UTC)


 * Thank you, that child got what he deserved.
 * 176.42.81.2 14:07, January 23, 2014 (UTC)

A simple request...
Hey Orangitu, can you slightly change the name of this page, please? I know this is very pointless, but you see, I created the page a long time ago and I named it "Nuclear Bomb (Worms 2)". I don't like the "(Worms 2)" part of the name anymore, adding that to the page's name was stupid (also, the Nuke first appeared in Worms: The Director's Cut, not Worms 2). I'm sure you have the power to change a page's name, right? So, can you change the page's name to just "Nuclear Bomb", please? Thank you! (Really, though, it would be appreciated.)

176.42.81.2 12:20, January 25, 2014 (UTC)


 * You don't actually need admin rights to rename a page, registered users can also do so. You've been here for a while now, I do think you should register. I'll fulfill your request of course. --Orangitu | Talk 02:49, January 26, 2014 (UTC)


 * I'll think about it, maybe someday I can become an actual user here. After all, I did make a lot of useful edits. Thanks for the suggestion! (And thanks for changing the page's name!)
 * 176.42.81.2 12:58, January 26, 2014 (UTC)

I've had enough.
This Wiki is starting to piss me off. Whenever I post a message, later, it disappears. And when I post ANOTHER message, the other message appears again, and then later, they BOTH disappear. And when someone edits something, later, the new edit disappears. When you click "Edit", the new edit appears again. Why does everything keep disappearing? IT'S MAKING ME CRAZY. (And I have to post a new message just so I can edit the old message.)

176.43.193.88 14:44, January 27, 2014 (UTC)


 * I've never had that kind of problem before. Do you mind explaining in more detail? If you're talking about your user page, it may be due to your constantly changing IP address. --Orangitu | Talk 14:01, January 28, 2014 (UTC)


 * Okay, let's say I made an edit to the Indian Nuclear Test page (and I did, actually). The page saves the edit I made when I publish it. But later, when I visit the page again, the new edit is gone, and only the previous edit can be seen. When the new edit disappears, I click "Edit" and the new edit appears again. When I go back, the new edit is still gone. When I click "Edit" again and click "Publish" (without even changing anything), the new edit FINALLY appears. The same thing happens when I post a message on a talk page. Sometimes, the new edit doesn't even appear in the page's history. It's really annoying. Sorry if you still didn't get it. And I don't think it has anything to do with my I.P. address.
 * 176.43.193.88 14:48, January 28, 2014 (UTC)


 * Hmm, I'm not sure if this is correct, but it may be a browser cache problem. Try pressing Ctrl+F5 (reload without cache) on the page you think is displaying an incorrect version. Do tell me the results. --Orangitu | Talk 13:45, January 29, 2014 (UTC)


 * Okay, but I think it stopped doing that mistake. If it happens again, I'll try doing that, and I'll tell you the results. Thanks!

Please make this wiki mobile-friendly
I edit this wiki via kindle and I'd like it for you to make it mobile friendly.


 * Oh... So that's why your grammar isn't perfect. Just saying...


 * 176.43.193.88 22:33, January 29, 2014 (UTC)


 * I don't think that is something I can do. If you're talking about the homepage, I suppose I can edit the margins for it to suit better on a smaller screen, but the mobile site in general is made by the wikia staff. If you have some suggestions, I recommend you contact them instead. --Orangitu | Talk 01:29, January 31, 2014 (UTC)

We gotta change some things.
The background and the icon for this Wiki are simple, old, and boring. The background is nothing special, it's just blue with a bunch of large W's.

The icon is not BAD, but it still could be better. Where's the Grenade or the nuclear symbol in "WORMS"? They were supposed to replace the "O" in "WORMS" with the Grenade or the nuclear symbol!

The background could be fan-art of a random Worms Armageddon landscape, with a bunch of Worms on it firing weapons like Bazookas and causing chaos. That would be brilliant.

The icon could be the "WORMS" logo from Worms 4: Mayhem, with the Grenade and stuff. And under the logo would be "Wiki" in small, orange letters, and it would spell "WORMS Wiki". Take a look at Charlie Gál's version of the Wiki's icon, his version is perfect. But just to make it even better, we can add Boggy B (I created a link to the page, in case you don't know what I'm talking about) next to the icon, holding a Bazooka. That would be cool.

Wait... You know what? I just looked at the page "Worms Wiki:About" and I saw the gallery showing all the old logos and backgrounds for this Wiki. You see the first picture in the gallery of the Wiki's logo from September 20, 2010 to November 3, 2010 for the "Monaco skin"? Yes, THAT picture! It's perfect! I like it even better than Charlie's logo. Let's modify that a little, maybe we can change the large blue circle behind the text to a large version of Worms Armageddon's nuclear symbol, and make "WIKI" under "WORMS" a little smaller, and make the "W" and the second "I" in "WIKI" the same size as the first "I" and the "K", and make them lowercase (but the "W" should still be capital). Let's also slightly change the Worm on top of the logo, give him a more Worms 4: Mayhem look (my favorite Worm design is the Worms 4: Mayhem design), and give him a Bazooka. And we can add two more Worms next to logo, one on the left side, one on the right side (and also give them Worms 4: Mayhem looks, too). The Worm on the left side should hold a Handgun from Worms 2, and the Worm on the right side should hold a Sheep. Sorry for adding this long paragraph, but I really liked that picture, why did you guys change it? And I think this is a great idea. What do you think?

You can change it to anything you like, but we can't keep this old logo and background forever. It's time we actually did something.

176.41.237.6 13:21, January 31, 2014 (UTC)


 * I've thought about these things before. About the logo - I do think the old one is better. The thing is, when wikia moved to the (then) new skin, they imposed new restrictions on the wiki logo (they don't even call it a logo anymore, they referred to it as a "wordmark"). The new logo has to be wide (about 3x its height), and has to be a maximum of a certain kilobytes in size. The current logo is the best adaptation of the old logo I could come up with.


 * The wiki's background also suffered much of the same. It has to be a maximum of a certain size (100kb if I'm not wrong), so the old background was out of the question. In the end I came up with the cropped boxshot background, but it turns out to be quite an eyesore, so I replaced it with the current one.


 * --Orangitu | Talk 11:44, February 1, 2014 (UTC)


 * This is ridiculous. Wikia just had to make it look boring. Oh well, I guess for now, we'll just have to keep it like this, unfortunately...
 * 176.41.237.6 13:34, February 1, 2014 (UTC)

Very small request...
Sorry to bother you, but can you just slightly change the name of the page "Jet pack"? I just want you to capitalize the "P" in "pack". It's supposed to be "Jet Pack", not "Jet pack". This may be pointless and unnecessary, but this kind of thing really bugs me. What kind of careless fool would create a page with incorrect grammar in the title?
