IRC Shenanigans/Playing with Myself
I may have gotten a hang of the IRC chat. Just look at the chat logs from like 21:30 through 22:30 if you can and you'll understand. Sgt. Me 03:11, August 11, 2014 (UTC)

Sul Sul!
I did exactly what you said about the posts. Thanks for your help! It's nice to meet you! -- Coastercam7788 (talk) 00:49, August 14, 2014 (UTC)

My Want Slots & Locks
IME, this option on the "batbox" will also fix those cases in which a Sim should have more slots and locks, but doesn't. If a college graduate successfully invites a college Townie to move in, the Townie ages up and should be treated as a graduate. Usually, the Townie gets the extra slots and lock, but I have seen cases where that did not happen. Dharden (talk) 12:42, August 14, 2014 (UTC)

IP Apologies
I'm very sorry, but the last IP address who forgot to sign my talk page was me. I meant to reply on the other IP address, but my sister was driving when the internet logged me out at Minneapolis downtown. So please, don't block me for changing my signature. I was getting my colorful signature. Wi ki er zz 11 22 (Let's talk it over) 20:36, August 14, 2014 (UTC)

RE: Inappropriate use of Rollback
Okay. But it's not always easy to tell which uses are clearly inappropriate, and which can be used to revert sticky situations - partly due to reasons below.

I know for a fact that other admins have been known to revert edits that conflict with the ideal point of view. Such as Starmoonie's rollback on my IP's good faith edits to this page.

I've also seen Nikel23 revert good faith edits using the rollback tool, possibly to decrease the chances of other users noticing. I'm not sure, but yeah, I can make sure I use the undo button in future. Some editors obviously get the (which to use rollback: to revert the edit in one click and hide it from the recent wiki activity. Or undo: to revert the edit in two clicks with an edit summary and in full view on the recent wiki activity) back to front. --  C.Syde  ( talk &#124;  contribs ) 11:03, August 22, 2014 (UTC)

RE: A couple of your messages

 * Okay, sorry about that. I decided to cross most of it out, rather than removing it. But if you didn't think I should have edited that messages then that's okay. I will consult you before putting you jobless. I think it was just that you were potentially away from keyboard at the time, and for some reason I didn't want to wait.


 * As for reverting good faith edits, I can easily break the habit of using rollback on good faith edits instead of undo.

New terrain pages
Hi k6ka,

I was going to ask you this back on the seventeenth, but I had other things to do.

Since C.Syde asked me to talk to you after I asked the following question to him---I was just wondering if I can add new pages of the terrains in The Sims 2? You know in The Sims 2, when you are making a new neighborhood, university, downtown, etc. you can pick a number of terrains for that neighborhood. I was just asking if you can let me do that? Thanks. P.S. If I messed up on my userpage, can you or C.Syde help me out or something? Coastercam7788 (talk) 11:03, August 24, 2014 (UTC)

Welcome Bot for new IP/ new users
I'm a little confused. It seems that the Welcome Bot is working for new users now? But it still isn't working for new IP? Is that were we are at now? - Icemandeaf (talk) 18:41, August 24, 2014 (UTC)


 * I noticed that as well. Oh, well. In any case, I just wanted to make sure that there wasn't something going on that I didn't know about. - Icemandeaf (talk) 18:53, August 24, 2014 (UTC)

Human vs Sim
If the community decided that the life state should be called Sim rather than Human, shouldn't Sim3 be changed to reflect that? Right now it says Human as the life state. I wanted to ask before I changed the template. - Icemandeaf (talk) 21:12, August 24, 2014 (UTC)


 * Done. - Icemandeaf (talk) 22:09, August 24, 2014 (UTC)

Bot request
Hi k6ka. Can your bot help recategorizing Category:Cafeteria Chefs into Category:Cafeteria chefs? The "Chefs" is capitalized. Thanks in advance!  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote!  04:45, August 27, 2014 (UTC)
 * Oh, another request please! Can you fix these Special:WhatLinksHere/Trait (The Sims 3) (The Sims 3) into the proper link?  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote!  04:52, August 30, 2014 (UTC)

Next battles
Hi K6ka. Do you think you could start the next battles? --  C.Syde  ( talk &#124;  contribs ) 20:18, August 30, 2014 (UTC)


 * I've just closed fanon battle 16 and started fanon battle 17. I was waiting for you to do the next battles, but you seemed to be away from keyboard. I'm archiving the canon battle 99 but I'll leave battle 100 for you do start, because I don't feel confident in starting a three way battle at this time. --  C.Syde  ( talk &#124;  contribs ) 00:58, August 31, 2014 (UTC)


 * Whoops, I didn't notice your recent blog post. Well I might just leave the job of starting the next canon battle to someone else. I'm a little busy right now anyway. --  C.Syde  ( talk &#124;  contribs ) 02:43, August 31, 2014 (UTC)


 * I started the next battle myself, by copying the contents from the last three way battle and then replaced the information from Battle 9 with the information for Battle 100.


 * Unfortunately I somehow screwed the template up. But then just as I was two minutes away from fixing the template, ThePeculiarMe came along and copied the contents from your sandbox.


 * So no harm done. --  C.Syde  ( talk &#124;  contribs ) 03:28, August 31, 2014 (UTC)

RE: Welcoming new users
I just copied from an already existing template (the current one I copy from is located in one of my sandboxes), but re-signing it with four tildes.

If adding  to the IP's talk page is a better way to add welcome templates, then I'll try it in the sandbox. --  C.Syde  ( talk &#124;  contribs ) 02:06, September 1, 2014 (UTC)

Yes that was much better than the solution I had. Thanks! :) --  C.Syde  ( talk &#124;  contribs ) 02:12, September 1, 2014 (UTC)

Recommended DLC
First, thanks for the pointer to Cyjon's Less Trash Duty. Second, my experience with No Dancing in Silence is that it does not eliminate the autonomous "Dance on Toes" action when a stereo is not playing. It does appear to reduce it, but it still pops up. Dharden (talk) 21:00, September 2, 2014 (UTC)
 * I've seen it happen as an idle action in houses without stereos. Dharden (talk) 16:49, September 3, 2014 (UTC)

Bellhops
Do you know if Bellhops can be made playable without cheats? I don't recall whether or not they can, and I haven't done a proper check in-game myself yet. --  C.Syde  ( talk &#124;  contribs ) 11:01, September 5, 2014 (UTC)
