Baut Timmy

I've just watched a few videos and there is no indication whatsoever of his name. I'm not spending my entire evening watching YouTube videos just to find out somebody's name. Either link me to a specific video that backs up your claim or upload an image you've taken yourself. Lost Labyrinth (c)(b) 17:51, July 12, 2013 (UTC)
Disregard the above. It does seem that some versions of the game do indeed list his name as "Tool" in the Relationships panel. I've restored your edit and linked to the video as a reference. Sorry for the confusion back there. Lost Labyrinth (c)(b) 17:59, July 12, 2013 (UTC)

Reverting

Thanks for protecting the page. That user is already been blocked on chat. I didn't know what to then, how many times should I revert it before consulting and admin+?Blue12porcupine talk 20:36, July 12, 2013 (UTC)

RE: Edit warring

I didnt edit war. My edits were helpful. WHY CANT YOU SEE THAT!!!!! —Preceding unsigned comment added by -xxEliteProTommyxx- (talkcontribs)

You reverted Blue12porcupine several times. In future if you wish to contest a revert, bring it up with her rather than retroactively continuing to revert and engaging in edit warring. Lost Labyrinth (c)(b) 21:13, July 12, 2013 (UTC)

Re. Edit warring 2

Oh I'm scared, I think I'm gonna get blocked, mmm lets hope not.

Billy cougar (talk) 21:16, July 12, 2013 (UTC)

You're not. We sorted that out. :) Lost Labyrinth (c)(b) 21:18, July 12, 2013 (UTC)
Thank good I mean god.
Oh forgot the numbers 1800-Oh Daddy

And what was the point of this exactly? Lost Labyrinth (c)(b) 09:57, July 24, 2013 (UTC)

Licensing tool

I wonder if you can disable the file licensing tool to unregistered users -- if it's allowed? After you fixed it when the tool broke, the vandal who kept inserting false license returned. After all, there doesn't seem to be any record where unregistered contributor helped license the files, or they can do it by editing the page instead. Nikel Talk Vote! 06:24, July 24, 2013 (UTC)

I can probably do something with Special:Abusefilter to try and mitigate the issue. It gets complicated when it's just one guy messing around with it and personally I don't want to lock out anons. completely from licensing images unless it's an absolute last resort. I'll try throttling file namespace edits from anonymous users for now and see what we get with this. Lost Labyrinth (c)(b) 09:30, July 24, 2013 (UTC)
One person... with always changing IP address for 8 months. It's easy to miss it since files are not monitored all the time. Nikel Talk Vote! 09:38, July 24, 2013 (UTC)
I've managed to set it so that an anon can add 3 licenses in the space of 2 minutes before the filter stops them. Now we shall wait and see where we go with this. Lost Labyrinth (c)(b) 09:51, July 24, 2013 (UTC)
Eh, I realized your reply just now. I didn't recall if this issue still occurs between your reply and now, but if you set the filter to the same anon, I don't think it will be effective. For the record, this vandalism is always done by different anons, so one vandalism and the anon is gone for good. But anyway, I'll report back when I see this vandalism again. Nikel Talk Vote! 15:58, July 27, 2013 (UTC)
Pardon my interjection, but are you sure that it really is vandalism? It seems that images are always licensed as being fanon images, which is the default selection in the drop-down list. It doesn't seem unlikely that people are just accidentally licensing files. -- LostInRiverview talk ~ blog 19:46, July 27, 2013 (UTC)
It's not always fanon, LiR. Sometimes it's even others, like screenshots from The Sims 3.
But you know, I didn't think of that possibility... That too, might be possible too. I should remember AGF. In that case, can I request something else? Maybe disabling the tool if the image is already licensed, so there wouldn't be multiple license. If it's added by mistake, it can be corrected manually, because that's what has to be done if it's licensed incorrectly anyway. Nikel Talk Vote! 07:48, July 30, 2013 (UTC)
It'll have to wait if its even possible. I'm currently away from home using my ipad. Lost Labyrinth (c)(b) 10:47, August 3, 2013 (UTC)

Adopt a User query

Hey Lab (or Georgie; whatever you prefer) I was wondering if I could ask you a question about The Sims Wiki:Adopt-a-user program. Actually, it's more of me asking if it could be possible for me to join the program, as an Adopter I mean. I really like helping new users and pointing them in the right direction. I've been told by another adopter that users don't really need to ask but I just wanted to be sure. Thanks! Beds (parlare - da leggere) 18:57, July 29, 2013 (UTC)

Feel free to add yourself and whatnot. Sorry for the late reply, my social life practically took over and I'm currently using my ipad at my girlfriend's house. I should be back at my place tomorrow if you need any further assistance. :) Lost Labyrinth (c)(b) 10:45, August 3, 2013 (UTC)
Excellent, thank you very much! :) Beds (parlare - da leggere) 11:40, August 3, 2013 (UTC)

Retiring

I've decided to retire from the wiki. I'd like for my rights as Administrator, Chat Moderator, and IRC Channel Operator to be removed. I would also like for my account to be banned for an indefinite time. Ѧüя◎ґ (talk) 15:51, August 4, 2013 (UTC)

Re: Images

That image is very similar to ones made by TheXmas, except my one has thinking bubbles. And I don´t think that they have bad quality, images that RR removed before were bad. So I think there is no reason for removing them. So, please let me to upload them. Mate1234 (talk) 20:11, August 7, 2013 (UTC)

Ok, I will put less blur on the images, but I will re-upload Michael´s one, because some of TheXmas´ images had even more that blur thing. And, please, don´t remove my images if you don´t like them, leave me the message to upload new versions.Mate1234 (talk) 21:52, August 7, 2013 (UTC)

So, you mean, less blur and TheXmas´ style? Mate1234 (talk) 11:00, August 8, 2013 (UTC)

I made another image and uploaded it here, I have added just a little blur to spice up the image and make it similar to TheXmas´s ones. Can this one stay, please? Mate1234 (talk) 14:47, August 8, 2013 (UTC)

Thanks. I will only put some blur to fit the image with TheXmas´ ones, though some of them had so much that blur thing. Mate1234 (talk) 18:32, August 8, 2013 (UTC)

Can you delete this image, so that I can re-upload it? I messed up with its name. Mate1234 (talk) 22:18, August 8, 2013 (UTC)

Thanks.  Mate1234 (talk) 06:33, August 9, 2013 (UTC)

RE:List

Oh man, I'm so sorry. I had no idea! My Wiki glitched out, and it didn't show me the "You are recreating a page that has been previously deleted" I'll try not to let that happen again.
