Re: I am sorry to inform you................
Are you sure you meant that for me? I can't find any articles that I created within the past couple of months that are candidates for deletion. In fact, I only see two articles in the "Candidates for deletion" category. Neither are mine, and one (the "Nova Family" article) is one that I nominated for deletion.

 * You had no right to speak for me or any administrator of this wiki to this user and threaten them. This is considered impersonation and harassment both of which are against Wikia's Terms of Use. --a_morris (talk) 17:24, December 28, 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for the heads-up about M&G
I wasn't planning on getting it anyway, as adding another Pack would probably be pushing it on my less-than-new computer, but I appreciate the thought. Sorry it glitched up your game so badly. Also thanks for the note about a possible location for the mysterious urn. Dharden 13:11, December 31, 2009 (UTC)

TESTING USERBOX
Yay i got a userbox

Whitecat2 here
Hey, it's me Whitecat2, it's nice to meet you. To answer your question, why wouldn't Maxis haven't sold Sims in Scandinavia if it's so good game :D

You found Vita's grave?!?
Hi, my name is Dorthea and I'm the one who first posted about Vita Alto's grave being found in the Sims 2, stirring up all that wonderful criticism and rumor. :)If you need to know more, I left a message explaining it on Dharden's talk page.

I saw that you had supposedly found the disputed grave; it was on his talk page. Now, two things you said stood out to me; one, that you found it after installing Mansion and Garden stuff, and two, that you found it in a basement you created??? Hmm. Oh, and also I found it interesting how you said that her ghost was a fire ghost. Perhaps you could elaborate...?

I'm really sorry about you having to uninstall your game and lose all your families, but I was hoping that you could provide some evidence for all of the skeptics out there (and there are a lot). If you get your game working again, I was really hoping that, if you find the urn again, you can snap a few pictures of the urn and the ghost for proof and put it up here on the site.

I would also really appreciate it if you could post some details on the Alto pages about where you found the ghost. I don't know where it is, because I can't use my old Sims 2, but I know some people are frustrated because they've been looking everywhere. And it looks like not only may they need "Mansion and Garden Stuff" to find it, but it may not even be in a precreated house, since you said you found it in a house you created.

Anyway, I'm really relieved you found this, especially because it may finally prove to everyone that I'm not lying. Thanks! :) 03:49, January 5, 2010 (UTC)68.13.221.137

How do you do that...??
Hi, I have been thinking about signing myself up as a registered user, but I'm not really sure I want to yet. I like being anonymous and mysterious :) But about the pictures and whatnot, I don't really know how to put pictures on the wiki...are the instructions for that on the page you see when you edit something...??? 68.13.221.137 01:02, January 6, 2010 (UTC)

RE: Sadden...
Hey, I have no idea about what happened, I do not spend my time here looking at fights between users. This is a wiki, and all you are supposed to do here is be contributing and useful to it. This is NOT a social website. Did a morris block you? - JEA13  [ iTalk  ] 09:46, January 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * Oh, I can see that, but tell me the reason, I can't just go around and unblock people. Tell me exactly what happened, please. :) - JEA13  [ iTalk  ] 08:10, January 7, 2010 (UTC)
 * It's DHARDEN, not DHARDAN. Anyway, are you sure you are blocked? I checked the block log and I did not see your name there. Try to edit a page and tell me if the wiki permits you to do so. - JEA13  [ iTalk  ] 14:59, January 7, 2010 (UTC)
 * You were never blocked mate. I had never seen your name in the block log. If you are blocked you'll get a notifier when you try to edit a page which will tell you why you were blocked, who blocked you and how long will you be blocked.- JEA13  [ iTalk  ] 13:36, January 8, 2010 (UTC)

John Tricou's
Hello sir, I thought there is no need for that article... But if I'm wrong, I'll retire my proposition.

Bachelor's
Jeez, I'm really sorry about that ._. It's better now though :3 Thanks for not being condescending about it..as a lot of people seem to be on this site about edits; it's their way or the highway, lol. --Shirviu 23:51, January 8, 2010 (UTC)

the basement you created....
Someone just had an interesting point. How was Vita Alto's urn in the basement if YOU created the basement? That does sound odd. 68.13.221.137 00:17, January 9, 2010 (UTC)

Hello!
Hi AAf3K1... that's your name, in case you couldn't tell :). I've seen your name floating around the wiki recently and just wanted to stop on by your talk page and say 'hi.' If you ever want to or need to chat, or if you have a question or a problem with an article, or whatever, don't hesitate to send me a message; I'll probably see it relatively soon. Otherwise, keep up the good work on the wiki! LostInRiverview 05:22, January 9, 2010 (UTC)

Hi from the boondocks wiki
Hi Jacob I was wondering if you were still on the boondocks wiki. Thanks for giving me rollback privallages on the Boondocks wiki! --Salemguy123 16:04, January 9, 2010 (UTC)

Reverting vandalism
Please use the undo function to undo vandalism. Your edits to Unborn baby Curious only compounded the error and made undoing it harder. --a_morris (talk) 18:40, January 9, 2010 (UTC)

Re: Vandalism revert
Well, I have limited experience in undoing vandalism in articles. I am not quite sure if regular users are supposed to undo edits... I haven't yet come across a rule saying we're not allowed to, but it seems to me that it's frowned upon (I could be wrong, it's just the impression I get) and that vandalism should be reported to an admin or sysop instead.

Anyways, that being said, the easiest way to do it (and the only way I know how) is to go to the vandalized page's page history, and go to the version of the page that was vandalized. On the left hand side of the description, there should be a link to 'undo'. As far as I know, you can only do this to the most recent change, so you have to be sure not to edit the page before you revert the vandalism. I've only ever undone vandalism once; you're better off asking an admin for a more detailed explanation if this didn't make sense.

Like I said, I'm not sure that there is a rule that says that regular user's can't undo edits. But if there is clear vandalism on a page, especially if the vandalism is overly offensive or vulgar, than it would be in the best interest of the wiki to clean it up as soon as possible, so in those cases I would suggest undoing the vandalism, then reporting the vandal's username or IP address to A Morris or one of the admins, who can take action against the user if needed.

Hope this helped! See you around! LostInRiverview 02:37, January 10, 2010 (UTC)
