I'll reply here (unless requested otherwise) so it's easier to track a conversation as it's on one page. Please remember to sign your posts with 4 tildes (<nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>). It would also be helpful if you leave a new message (regarding a new subject) under a new header at the bottom of the page so that I can find it and respond to it promptly. |

==Potential E3 Questions== |
|||
== ur pic = hot i want 2 marry u == |
|||
Hey there Lost Labyrinth! |
|||
My name’s Mike and I’m with Wikia’s gaming ComDev team. Just wanted to say hi and ask you a quick question about E3. As you might know, E3 is one of the biggest game conventions of the year, and it’s right around the corner. We may have the opportunity ahead of the show to interview some folks from EA, and would love to ask them any questions about The Sims 4 that you or the other admins may have. |
|||
Here’s an example of a community interview we’ve done before: http://xcom.wikia.com/wiki/File:Expert_Showcase_Special_Edition_-_XCOM_Enemy_Within |
|||
i love u ur hot in ur pic wen u smile |
|||
:Coolio. Try pursuing someone that's 1) in your league and 2) someone you know '''in real life'''. {{GGsig}} 22:12, March 20, 2012 (UTC) |
|||
We really like letting Wikia communities ask the questions, because they’re very knowledgeable about their game of choice, and ask extremely in-depth questions that regular news outlets don’t. |
|||
== Edit Warring? == |
|||
If this sounds like something you’d be interested in doing, feel free to submit any questions you have here, or directly to me at mgrimm@wikia-inc.com |
|||
I thought I was just undoing vandalism. That editor didn't even put in a reason, and the thing is, with crank calls, my sims rarey if ever get slapped or anything - usually they just ring the doorbell and my sim can greet them, and build a relationship. Just figured I'd put in something useful for those who love to play the Beaker household or are big fans of Nervous Subject and want to keep his personality as 0-0-10-0-0. Anyway, I didn't mean to cause trouble, though I wish whoever reported me would've instead just talked it over with me on my talk page, to explain what edit warring was. Sorry about that :( [[Special:Contributions/66.60.188.6|66.60.188.6]] ([[User talk:66.60.188.6|talk]]) 17:23, March 24, 2012 (UTC) |
|||
Hope to hear back from you soon, and thanks again for all your edits & contributions to The Sims Wiki! |
|||
:I've left a warning [[[[User talk:66.60.188.6|on your talk page]] regarding your edits. I guess anons don't receive messages after all. :/ At least you've acknowledged you've done wrong. :) {{GGsig}} 10:39, March 25, 2012 (UTC) |
|||
::I did get the warning on my page. Do you have any tips on making a better edit? Because making crank calls has really helped me get Nervous Subject and other grouchy sims to actually invite their acquaintances over and build relationships. It even got Nervous to become best friends with the NPC that he eventually married. It's a wonderful feature, and the sims that a grouchy sim crank-calls don't always poke, shove or slap the crank-caller - the relationship might suffer a little, but the victim of the call might just be easygoing about the incident and chat with whoever made the call. |

This is actually a pre-E3 event, and we'll be talking to EA next Thursday, the 15th. They actually don't tell us ahead of time what they'll be presenting there, but with Sims 4 right around the corner it seems like a safe bet. If we don't hear anything from the event next week, I'll let you know, and we'll be sure to try and ask the questions at E3 proper. |
|||
I'll make sure to keep an eye on the blog post, and thanks for the quick response! |

== The Urbz == |

Hello, I'd take all the images of characters from "The Urbz: Sims in the City" for the French Wiki. |

Is you agree? |

Sorry about the late response! E3 wrapped up a couple weeks ago, but we're just now getting caught up with everything around the office here. Just wanted to update you on the community questions situation. We unfortunately didn't have a chance to talk with anyone at E3 and ask them the questions, but we're going to try contacting them via email and seeing if we can get a response that way. I'll keep you posted if we do. |

Hi! |

I'm Plumbbobparadise and I'm a somewhat infrequent contributor here. I have a fairly large Simfamily whose adventures I'm attempting to chronicle here, and I want to link all their pages together, with family trees and the like. I see those bottom links with all the family names and even family trees with individual members. The page I'm trying to edit is here - [[Fanon:The Plumbs|The Plumbs]] Please help, I have no idea what to do :( |
|||

FWIW, whatismyipaddress.com says 46.190.19.87 and 46.190.17.233 are at Tellas S.A. , which is in Greece. You think they're the same person? [[User:Dharden|Dharden]] ([[User_talk:Dharden|talk]]) 13:01, April 6, 2012 (UTC) |

Hi, Georgie! Do you know any site where can IP-check the locations of IP's, I searched and didn't find any. There seems to be an issue with this: [http://sims.wikia.com/wiki/The_Sims_Wiki:Battles/Nominations?diff=374198&oldid=374194 nomination], the IP's seem to be from the same country as the nominator.

Sometimes I pretend to be over-reactive but now that you mention it, I suppose there is no need for it. It wasn't winding me up as much as it sounded like, but yes again there wasn't any need for it. And sometimes I do forget to tone it down. |
|||
== SodaDog there. == |
|||
Also I guess there was no reason to blank the talk page for [[Gordon King]]. I sometimes forget that I tend to sometimes write those sorts of things as well. '''[[User:C.Syde65|<font color="maroon">C.Syde</font>]]''' ([[User talk:C.Syde65|<font color="black">talk</font>]] | [[:Special:Contributions/C.Syde65|<font color="black">contribs</font>]]) 22:06, May 10, 2014 (UTC) |
|||
Hi there, my name is SodaDog and i originate from Nintendogs wiki that i have got back running. I am also known as PatandRoxanne in The Sims 3 Forums and i am also known for trying to recreate The Sims 1 Neighbourhood for console (Link: http://forum.thesims3.com/jforum/posts/list/516893.page). I was on this wiki until i started seeing so called "Sex objects" spam pages. I then categorized them for deletion and you came in to help! |
|||
== Not supporting my nomination == |
|||
So, if you need me or any Nintendogs information, go to Nintendogs wiki! See ya! |
|||
* While my heart is certainly in the right place, and I have almost definitely learned everything I need to be an administrator, I actually think it's fortunate that you haven't supported my nomination for the following reasons. |
|||
- SodaDog 20:00 (UK time) 10/04/12. |
|||
* While most people normally take time over their edits, I am always in a rush because I feel that I have a mountain of things to do and I just want to get them all done. As a result I often forget to add several bits of information, so then I have to go back and type in the information that slips out of my mind - by which time other editors may already have noticed. |
|||
* I often tend to do what many consider to be "A rough job which needs to be polished". I remember making an edit on a page, and another editor came along and tried to improve the grammar of my edit - but in doing so they re-wrote the opposite to what I had intended. |
|||
* I have made many mistakes, most of which I am unlikely to repeat - but then there's always a new generation of mistakes, in addition to those mistakes that had no one else pointed them out to me, I would never have noticed. |
|||
* Also when others try to explain things to me, I'm in too much of a hurry to actually take the time to consider and understand what they've said. This explains why I often misinterpret advice - such as "taking a step back and think a little bit deeper about what you're doing". Instead I might think of it as "wasting my time thinking about this when I could be jumping ahead to something else". |
|||
* Naturally I'm often under the impression that nothing is wrong which is why I express my confidence and experience whilst failing to notice any advice "observe what's going on with administrative issues, rather than attempt to jump straight into them". Instead I might see it as "You need to go back and learn how to talk" - why would I do that when I'd already learned how? |
|||
* I can't see myself making any severe mistakes with those administrative tools but with those other mistakes, it doesn't look good. And of course a person can't always predict what they might or might do wrong. Recently I saw a nomination for administration-ship and thought "why has no one nominated me"? The answer was soon to be there waiting. |
|||
* I'm unlikely to repeat those mistakes "blanking a page" or "making false assumptions regarding a certain user and their sockpuppets". But that still doesn't mean that the 'charges' have been cleared...yet. |
|||
* Now that I'm aware of these mistakes, I'm sure I can learn from them, and spend more time on things rather than jumping ahead. With that, I'll develop into a much better editor at a remarkably quick pace - being a quick learner. |

Blocking those IPs aren't necessary. IPs can be renewed at any time. Blocking them for infinite is very rarely ever needed. Besides, all those IPs are already blocked globally. [[User:Rappy 4187|Rappy]] 21:56, May 26, 2012 (UTC) |

:I did notice a fair few that didn't have any block attached at all; I only gave them permanent blocks mainly down to the fact that they're proxy servers which get abused more often than not. Nonetheless, I will acknowledge this for future reference. {{GGsig}} 22:00, May 26, 2012 (UTC) |

Yeah I just blocked {{User|0143}} to indefinite due to trolling and vandalism and I was wondering since it is this user's first vandalizing should the blocking be changed or what?

:I noticed the block was downgraded to 3 days. Given that it looks like this guy is only here for the purpose of vandalism, I personally am not not opposed to an indefinite ban though if that's apparently too long then 3 days/1 week is fine. {{GGsig}} 17:47, June 20, 2012 (UTC) |

:Good question. Seeing as the filter is generally used as a deterrent, I'd go against warning the user on the condition that they've done nothing abusive outside of what the filter caught. {{GGsig}} 13:31, June 24, 2012 (UTC) |

I'm kind of convinced that it is CC555 as she has a history of lying to try and get out of any situation and a Checkuser would be useless as her account (including her socks) are stale.

:I've banned her three IP ranges that she's known to use for a week. The problem we have here is that BT (her ISP) are the largest internet service provider in the UK and one range could be stuffed with activity from literally a large percentage of our British userbase, hence why we can't permanently ban the ranges, besides from the fact that BT just randomly allocate an IP address to a customer, from any IP range. :/ {{GGsig}} 12:49, July 15, 2012 (UTC) |

Potential E3 Questions[edit source]
Hey there Lost Labyrinth!
My name’s Mike and I’m with Wikia’s gaming ComDev team. Just wanted to say hi and ask you a quick question about E3. As you might know, E3 is one of the biggest game conventions of the year, and it’s right around the corner. We may have the opportunity ahead of the show to interview some folks from EA, and would love to ask them any questions about The Sims 4 that you or the other admins may have.
Here’s an example of a community interview we’ve done before: http://xcom.wikia.com/wiki/File:Expert_Showcase_Special_Edition_-_XCOM_Enemy_Within
We really like letting Wikia communities ask the questions, because they’re very knowledgeable about their game of choice, and ask extremely in-depth questions that regular news outlets don’t.
If this sounds like something you’d be interested in doing, feel free to submit any questions you have here, or directly to me at mgrimm@wikia-inc.com Hope to hear back from you soon, and thanks again for all your edits & contributions to The Sims Wiki!

Ah, excellent thanks a lot!
This is actually a pre-E3 event, and we'll be talking to EA next Thursday, the 15th. They actually don't tell us ahead of time what they'll be presenting there, but with Sims 4 right around the corner it seems like a safe bet. If we don't hear anything from the event next week, I'll let you know, and we'll be sure to try and ask the questions at E3 proper.
I'll make sure to keep an eye on the blog post, and thanks for the quick response!

Hey again!
Sorry about the late response! E3 wrapped up a couple weeks ago, but we're just now getting caught up with everything around the office here. Just wanted to update you on the community questions situation. We unfortunately didn't have a chance to talk with anyone at E3 and ask them the questions, but we're going to try contacting them via email and seeing if we can get a response that way. I'll keep you posted if we do.
Cheers

Assistance Requested[edit source]
Hi! I'm Plumbbobparadise and I'm a somewhat infrequent contributor here. I have a fairly large Simfamily whose adventures I'm attempting to chronicle here, and I want to link all their pages together, with family trees and the like. I see those bottom links with all the family names and even family trees with individual members. The page I'm trying to edit is here - The Plumbs Please help, I have no idea what to do :(

RE: A few of my edits[edit source]
Sometimes I pretend to be over-reactive but now that you mention it, I suppose there is no need for it. It wasn't winding me up as much as it sounded like, but yes again there wasn't any need for it. And sometimes I do forget to tone it down.
Also I guess there was no reason to blank the talk page for Gordon King. I sometimes forget that I tend to sometimes write those sorts of things as well. C.Syde (talk | contribs) 22:06, May 10, 2014 (UTC)
Not supporting my nomination[edit source]
- While my heart is certainly in the right place, and I have almost definitely learned everything I need to be an administrator, I actually think it's fortunate that you haven't supported my nomination for the following reasons.
- While most people normally take time over their edits, I am always in a rush because I feel that I have a mountain of things to do and I just want to get them all done. As a result I often forget to add several bits of information, so then I have to go back and type in the information that slips out of my mind - by which time other editors may already have noticed.
- I often tend to do what many consider to be "A rough job which needs to be polished". I remember making an edit on a page, and another editor came along and tried to improve the grammar of my edit - but in doing so they re-wrote the opposite to what I had intended.
- I have made many mistakes, most of which I am unlikely to repeat - but then there's always a new generation of mistakes, in addition to those mistakes that had no one else pointed them out to me, I would never have noticed.
- Also when others try to explain things to me, I'm in too much of a hurry to actually take the time to consider and understand what they've said. This explains why I often misinterpret advice - such as "taking a step back and think a little bit deeper about what you're doing". Instead I might think of it as "wasting my time thinking about this when I could be jumping ahead to something else".
- Naturally I'm often under the impression that nothing is wrong which is why I express my confidence and experience whilst failing to notice any advice "observe what's going on with administrative issues, rather than attempt to jump straight into them". Instead I might see it as "You need to go back and learn how to talk" - why would I do that when I'd already learned how?
- I can't see myself making any severe mistakes with those administrative tools but with those other mistakes, it doesn't look good. And of course a person can't always predict what they might or might do wrong. Recently I saw a nomination for administration-ship and thought "why has no one nominated me"? The answer was soon to be there waiting.
- I'm unlikely to repeat those mistakes "blanking a page" or "making false assumptions regarding a certain user and their sockpuppets". But that still doesn't mean that the 'charges' have been cleared...yet.
- Now that I'm aware of these mistakes, I'm sure I can learn from them, and spend more time on things rather than jumping ahead. With that, I'll develop into a much better editor at a remarkably quick pace - being a quick learner.
I have left similar comments on LiR and K6ka's talk pages, while most of the above has been written as a response to your particular message about whether I was ready to become an admin. -- C.Syde (talk | contribs) 07:13, June 25, 2014 (UTC)

Reference tooltip error[edit source]
The reference tooltip settings are a bit erroneous and lacking UI. It's just a minor problem though. Not sure if you could take care of this, but I might just report this to you. Nikel Talk – Vote! 13:29, July 6, 2014 (UTC)
- Unfortunately that's down to Wikia butchering JS/CSS to the point where nothing works as it should. While the tooltips are optimised for a completely different skin, the code should theoretically work here and there's nothing in the code to suggest why it shouldn't, but it doesn't. The list of things we can blame on Wikia is growing at an alarming rate. Lost Labyrinth
