Shut up, no one likes Cubone - its an ugly mole with a bone it found. LugiaPwns

You REALLY deserved that block. Alpha CuboneKing 01:13, 4 October 2009 (UTC)

Dude, the second I joined and made my first edit you reverted the changes and said that I basically didn't belong here and btw you too have quite the history - you and MAGNEDETH really don't get along... soo you shouldn't be talking . LugiaPwns

Yes it is true I have quite the past, and I'm not proud of it. Unless you're infiblocked of go away forever, you'll probably say you have quite the past too. Alpha CuboneKing 01:30, 4 October 2009 (UTC)

Please do not create multiple accounts. This one will serve you fine. —darklordtrom 07:12, 30 September 2009 (UTC)

Relax dude

dont get into arguments with users, and furthermore, dont insult other users, and finally, dont remove comments from your talk page. if you intend to stick around the site, youre going to need a serious attitude adjustment, because im not going to take it, and neither will any other admin. -- MAGNEDETH 01:38, 4 October 2009 (UTC)

Please

Please sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~) so that everyone knows who put the comment there. Thanks! ----Toxic ICE (User:Cold)^{(page, talk)} 03:43, 4 October 2009 (UTC)

Also, please don't re-sign comments, as it usually gives the wrong timestamp and is not allowed.--Toxic ICE (User:Cold)^{(page, talk)} 03:52, 4 October 2009 (UTC)

Don't rapid edit... it got me in a million edit conflicts just to get back to you... Alpha CuboneKing 03:54, 4 October 2009 (UTC)

sry - also how do you put tags on your userspace? like this users birthday is... ? LugiaRocks 03:55, 4 October 2009 (UTC)

{{TEMPLATE NAME|CUSTOMIZATION (if any)}} Alpha CuboneKing 03:56, 4 October 2009 (UTC)

thanks LugiaRocks 03:57, 4 October 2009 (UTC)

Just copy-paste from other user's pages, but make sure to change whatever you have to and not edit their page by accident. Oh, and try editing the mainspace, you're coming dangerously close to a talk warning...--Toxic ICE (User:Cold)^{(page, talk)} 03:59, 4 October 2009 (UTC)

It's {{User Birthday|September 25}} Alpha CuboneKing 04:01, 4 October 2009 (UTC)

Mainspace? sry kinda a noob here :( LugiaRocks 04:01, 4 October 2009 (UTC)

Mainspace is any page that doesn't start with User:, Shipping:, Bulbapedia:, or a talk page. So basically a regular article in Bulbapedia ZestyCactus 04:02, 4 October 2009 (UTC)

For example, This is mainspace, this and this isn't. Alpha CuboneKing 04:03, 4 October 2009 (UTC)

Thanks LugiaRocks 04:05, 4 October 2009 (UTC)

Seeing that you are having some trouble with user tags, you can see a complete list at Bulbapedia:Usertags. Their title is what you put on the page!--♫Green♫ギャラドス♫Talk♫ 04:06, 4 October 2009 (UTC)

Hi

I noticed you have been editing the User: namespace a lot recently. You may not be aware of this, but Bulbapedia has a Userspace policy that asks users to try and minimize the number of userspace edits they make in a short period of time. Instead of making multiple edits, why not use the Preview button (Alt + Shift + P) located right next to the edit button to look at your page and see how it is coming? That way, your page can look great while staying within the required amount of edits. Instead of editing the userspace, as a wiki, we encourage users to edit the mainspace. So, if you edit the mainspace more often, you will be allowed to edit the userspace more. Thanks! ----Toxic ICE (User:Cold)^{(page, talk)} 04:07, 4 October 2009 (UTC)

Please...

You've been making too many edits to the User talk: namespace lately. Please take your conversations to the forums, a chatroom, e-mail, an IM service, or something similar, as that many edits will slow down the server. ----Toxic ICE (User:Cold)^{(page, talk)} 04:07, 4 October 2009 (UTC)

Sorry, this is customary :/--Toxic ICE (User:Cold)^{(page, talk)} 04:07, 4 October 2009 (UTC)

Hold on!

If you did not read your last warning, then please read it now. You have edited the User: namespace too much. Please do not edit your page any more for now. Thank you. --☆Coolピカチュウ! 04:27, 4 October 2009 (UTC)

Stop.

Do not edit the User: namespace any more. In the past, we were not allowed to edit our pages at all because of users over-editing their pages. If you edit your page any more without making some edits to the mainspace, then the privilege for you to edit the userspace will be removed. --- Kogoro | Talk to me - 23:47, 4 October 2009 (UTC)

Sorry my bad... kinda went psycho. sorry. won't happen again. LugiaRocks 23:52, 4 October 2009 (UTC)

It happened again. You can have these privileges back once you show us that you deserve them. For now, you've lost them. —darklordtrom 22:20, 10 October 2009 (UTC)

Redirect links

What I'm working on involves changing redirect links so they link to the actual page. On the English VA page, Lugia was linked to {{OBP|Lugia|movie 2}} (Lugia (movie 2)) because that is the actual title. Now, if on the page is showed "Lugia (movie 2)", I would have put this: {{OBP|Lugia|movie 2|Lugia (The Power of One)}} (Lugia (The Power of One)) so it would have stayed the same in appearance. --rockersk08 19:08, 12 October 2009 (UTC)

Pokedex

It's best not to get into an edit war with an admin. Respect my decision. "It folds like a DS" is not good enough to say it looks like a DSi. By that logic, the Sinnoh dex also looks like a DSi (actually, it looks more like a DSi then the Johto one). The Johto dex is slim and the DSi had the same shape as the DS Lite. --ケンジのガール 02:33, 16 October 2009 (UTC)

I can have an opinion, can I not? Plus you are kind of abusing your power (I'm likely to be banned for a week for this, but I just feel that its unfair). Whatever - you win. '''LugiaRox''' 02:35, 16 October 2009 (UTC)

Yes you can. But if someone else disagrees then you should respect theirs. If you think that it looks like a DSi, fine. But others don't. I believe Harley is gay and that's not allowed on Bulbapedia either. I believe Hermione looks like Edna Mode but I'm not allowed to put that down either. Deal with it. Your not the only one who isn't allowed to post opinions. Now stop whining about this being an abuse of power because it isn't. I'm frankly sick of people telling me I'm abusing my power when I'm just trying to make an article better. Besides, another admin undid your last edit. --ケンジのガール 02:41, 16 October 2009 (UTC)

I'm sorry you feel that way. 'But if someone else disagrees then you should respect theirs.' Really? '''LugiaRox''' 02:43, 16 October 2009 (UTC)

• their opinion. --ケンジのガール 02:46, 16 October 2009 (UTC)

Looks like you didn't respect mine... because you are a higher authority admin - am i correct? '''LugiaRox''' 02:50, 16 October 2009 (UTC)

It looks like you're not really getting what Kenji-girl is trying to say. This is an encyclopedia. Facts belong in encyclopedias. Opinions do not. And removing an opinion from this encyclopedia is not an "abuse of power." 梅子^❀_✿ 02:56, 16 October 2009 (UTC)

Well, I along with others could count it in as a fact. I wasn't the one who put that they look like the current handheld system, that proves that others consider it a fact. Whatever - you're right. Kenji-girl wasn't abusing her power, I was abusing the policy of editing a page. '''LugiaRox''' 03:00, 16 October 2009 (UTC)

Lots of people sincerely believe that the world will end in 2012. They consider it to be fact. That doesn't mean that it is. It's still an opinion, even if it's wide-spread. Now, saying that the Johto Pokedex shares some similarities with the DSi in that it features a dual-screen interface with a touch screen and something round and shiny on the lid, that can be considered factual. Whether it's worth noting is debatable, though. 梅子^❀_✿ 03:08, 16 October 2009 (UTC)

I believe I just apologized don't be a smart aleck. I realize that I was wrong...'''LugiaRox''' 03:13, 16 October 2009 (UTC)

Okay, this is for the comment Lugia after my latest one.. You are wrong. You can believe it looks like the DSi. But if someone else doesn't, then it shouldn't be in the article. And even if I wasn't an admin, I would have removed it anyway. See the funny thing about admins... you kinda have to listen to them. They run this place. You wouldn't go against the order of your coach or teacher, now would you. Opinions are not allowed in the main articles. End of discussion. A lot of my opinions aren't allowed here either. And others agree with them, just like the agree with the Johto dex looking like the DSi. That doesn't mean that they are anymore allowable. The point is, there are people out there who don't believe it. If you were allowed to keep it in the article, then wouldn't be just as unfair to me, someone who doesn't think it looks like the DSi? I really don't want to ban you but you are on the verge of insubordination by being disrespectful to me with your snide remarks and sarcasm. Please don't point the finger at Umeko when you are don't the same thing. I hope you understand now and that we can finally end this. --ケンジのガール 03:15, 16 October 2009 (UTC)

I retract the insubordination comment. Sorry. But the rest stands firm. I'll leave you alone now. --ケンジのガール 03:23, 16 October 2009 (UTC)

Alright, I'm sorry. '''LugiaRox''' 03:26, 16 October 2009 (UTC)

Ah, um, just for the record, I wasn't trying to be a smart aleck in my last comment; I'm sorry if it came across that way, I was just trying to explain why many people believing something didn't make it fact, since it seemed like that's what you were trying to insist upon (I sincerely apologize if that was a misinterpretation on my part!). And I recognized that you realized you were wrong, which is why I said nothing on that subject. I just kind of thought an analogy was in order, to clear things up. Sorry if I came across as a troublemaker. :P 梅子^❀_✿ 03:48, 16 October 2009 (UTC)

Thanks. I'm sorry too. Let's end this :] '''LugiaRox''' 03:50, 16 October 2009 (UTC)

Sounds good~ 梅子^❀_✿ 03:52, 16 October 2009 (UTC)

Safari

I can't give you a 100% answer on this, because I've not explicitly ATTEMPTED it; however, in all the times I visited there before I got the dex they didn't appear. That's in no way conclusive, of course- I may just have missed them- but I did not see them. I'd say test it yourself, if you have the time- I'd not trust me xD But no, I didn't see them in any of my attempts.
~ ぎんくも | ♫ 05:38, 21 October 2009 (UTC)

Alright, thanks. I'll try it on HG '''LugiaRox''' 16:38, 21 October 2009 (UTC)

Instead of edit sections at different times

Try editing the whole page at once so you don't keep saving over and over again. Thanks. --ケンジのガール 02:34, 23 October 2009 (UTC)

Sorry, haha. I didn't mean to just keep changing and changing. But, I would edit and then notice something else to edit. My bad, I'll try reading the whole thing for corrections/errors before hand. Thanks for the heads up. :) '''LugiaRox''' 02:36, 23 October 2009 (UTC)

Yo dude

Better slow down the userpage editing... ZestyCactus 05:38, 23 October 2009 (UTC)

k - that was my last userspace edit for a while. sorry :p '''LugiaRox''' 05:41, 23 October 2009 (UTC)

It's alright :) ZestyCactus 05:46, 23 October 2009 (UTC)

Thanks LugiaPwns 05:49, 23 October 2009 (UTC)

seriously, stop. -- MAGNEDETH 18:03, 23 October 2009 (UTC)

sorry. :( LugiaPwns 06:05, 24 October 2009 (UTC) 20:27, 23 October 2009 (UTC)

Also, no images are allowed in your signature per the signature policy. Please update this. —darklordtrom 06:35, 25 October 2009 (UTC)

Sorry, will do. But, no images whatsoever? Do I have to get rid of my Lugia gallery? LugiaPwns 06:36, 25 October 2009 (UTC)

Wait -nvrmind. I thought you were talking about my userpage. Phew. LugiaPwns 06:38, 25 October 2009 (UTC)

Welcome back to abuse

yes, you did a pretty decent job when you were in abuse of showing us you know how to edit productively, but as soon as we let you out it was the same 'ol abuse as before. so, if keeping you in abuse is the only way to get you to edit productively then i guess thats what its going to take. -- MAGNEDETH 00:24, 26 October 2009 (UTC)

You are right. I edited my userpage too much. I couldn't fix this one thing and my wifi kept auto saving it instead of previewing.... My bad. Luckily I got my userpage pretty much finished.... I'm ready to work on the mainspace! LugiaPwns 15:28, 27 October 2009 (UTC)

Btw - when will I get my privilages back - if ever. In like 2 months? LugiaPwns 01:56, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

well, you get them back when youve recuperated your edits. try to stick to a 1 userspace to 20 mainspace edits mentality, and then yull get them back soon enough. so for right now, just try to be productive. -- MAGNEDETH 02:24, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

Alright - sounds good just got a little spelling mistake on my userpage that is itching me lol. BTW I don't know who to say this to but the Japanese site announced a Mew and Enigma Crystal event. LugiaPwns 13:05, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

Concerning your signature...

Is that Lugia image you put into in a comment on User talk:PsychicRider hard-coded into your signature on your preferences? If so, then I'm afraid you're going to have to remove it. Bulbapedia has a signature policy that states that signatures are to be text-only. (The section on that also states that signatures "not exceed 80 characters on-screen when rendered", but you weren't anywhere close to coming afoul of that.) This is why I had to edit your comment on the user talk page in question to remove the image. --Shiningpikablu252 16:43, 26 October 2009 (UTC)

It isn't - its just a little spirte I added at the end. This is my signature: LugiaPwns 15:25, 27 October 2009 (UTC)

How can I archive my Talk Page? LugiaPwns 01:53, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

Here's a hint

Using show preview lets you check over your edits before you save the page. If it doesn't look right you can fix it up and then move along to another page. —darklordtrom 23:26, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

My bad - I'm on my iPod touch and something weird happened.... LugiaPwns 23:28, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

What you did was click one of those buttons above the editing screen. No biggie. Just trying to help you out. —darklordtrom 23:29, 28 October 2009 (UTC)
