Recent changes is a great first stop, because you can see what pages other people have been editing, and where you can help.
Questions? You can ask at the Help desk or on the "discussion" page associated with each article, or post a message on my talk page!
Need help? The Community Portal has an outline of the site, and pages to help you learn how to edit.

I'm really happy to have you here, and look forward to contributing with you!--Richardtalk 18:39, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

Career rewards and skillbuilding[edit source]

It might be worth checking to see if all career rewards that build skills increase the learning rate as much as the bookshelf does. Dharden 17:32, November 26, 2009 (UTC)

It does, actually, just not as much.

Skill gain with no modifiers: 100 Education books: 500 Teaching: 200 Culinary Reward: 200 Books: 200 Yummy Channel: 200 Toy Oven: 150 Medicine reward: 250 Toddler table: 150 Rusty Car: 100 Army Reward: 538 Bowling: 350 Athletic Reward: 313 Treadmill: 300 Multipress: 250 Bike: 250 Yoga: 200 TV: 150 Pool: 100 Stereo: 100 Mini Golf: 250 Law Reward: 250 Poliics Reward: 250 Mirrors: 200 Birds: 150 Nursery Rhyme: 100 Rabbit: 75 Police Scanner: 250 Music Reward: 400 Criminal Reward: 250 Slacker Reward: 250 DJ Booth: 250 Practice Music: 200 Perform Music: 175 Novel: 150 Easel: 150 Xylophone: 75 Violin: 175 Synth: 200 Karaoke: 200 Personal Trainer: +100 Smart Milk: +200 Thinking Cap: +100 --Mr montmorency 16:28, November 27, 2009 (UTC)

Servos and the Elixir of Life[edit source]

I had a Servo in high aspiration drink the Elixir just to see what, if anything, would happen. The Servo drank the Elixir, and was recharged. It's an expensive recharge, but it works. Dharden 17:58, March 30, 2010 (UTC)

Perhaps you could provide some verification for it? --Mr montmorency 18:00, March 30, 2010 (UTC)
I didn't take before and after screenshots, or anything like that, so all I can give is my word. Dharden 20:19, March 30, 2010 (UTC)
Then the wise thing to do is to leave a [citation needed] behind until you can source the statement or someone else does. --Mr montmorency 23:03, March 30, 2010 (UTC)
If a reliable user can say something happened in their game, then you can remove the [citation needed]. If a vandal, unregistered user, or somebody who has just started contributing to the wiki says something happened in their game, it'd best to add a [citation needed]. Dharden is a good example of a reliable user, having started editing on April 23, 2008, having contributed to the wiki 2,320 times, and having no history of vandalism. I think it's okay to not have [citation needed], unless another user states that cannot happen, then it can be added back. Bleeh (talk) 23:44, March 30, 2010 (UTC)

Plantsims[edit source]

Look. The plantsims do not have black hair. They do when they are cured but they are currently Plantsims. Meaning, it doesn't matter. Archie 04:05, April 3, 2010 (UTC)

If it doesn't matter then why do you keep changing it back? I think it's obviously more useful to put their actual genetic traits in rather than copying in Plantsim traits, since those are the traits that are passed on and are most relevant to players. --Mr montmorency 04:07, April 3, 2010 (UTC)
Look! Does either Rose or Daisy have black hair right now?! No. They have green skin and green hair. Archie 04:08, April 3, 2010 (UTC)
They don't have green skin or green hair. That's the Plantsim overlay and is no useful indicator of the Sim's actual traits. Please consult the official article for confirmation of this. --Mr montmorency 04:12, April 3, 2010 (UTC)
What! Look, lets take this to a_morris and see what she says. Archie 04:14, April 3, 2010 (UTC)
Go ahead. Think about it, though. Is it more useful to the article to put in the same cookie cutter Plantsim features in, or is it more useful to provide information on the genetic information of the Sims, helping modders AND players? Furthermore, since the Plantsim article already says that ALL Plantsims have green skin and eyes, it's obviously redundant to copy this into Plantsim articles as it goes without saying. --Mr montmorency 04:21, April 3, 2010 (UTC)

I would rather keep the plantsim information. Archie 04:25, April 3, 2010 (UTC)

Well, it's not for you to decide. I think I've adequately stated good reason beyond 'Thats just how they look'. --Mr montmorency 04:27, April 3, 2010 (UTC)

Look! I'm going to stay up all night to stop you! Cause I know you have to go to bed soon. Archie 04:55, April 3, 2010 (UTC)

This is immature. I have explained with reason why my changes are correct, your rebuttals are poor and evidently based on your apparent attachment to those articles. Since you are yet to provide one good point as to why your changes are within the bounds of good faith and intentions, I'm going to continue reverting your vandalism until you can provide a good reason for those changes. By the way, I've just got up. --Mr montmorency 05:00, April 3, 2010 (UTC)
At least for Rose, I put in the info for both states. Will that satisfy both of ya? Dharden 05:22, April 3, 2010 (UTC)
I went ahead and did the same for Daisy. I'll change "Normal" to "Genetic" to prevent confusion. --Mr montmorency 05:24, April 3, 2010 (UTC)
Works for me. Dharden 05:28, April 3, 2010 (UTC)
Glad someone agrees for a change.--Mr montmorency 05:29, April 3, 2010 (UTC)

Your wiki[edit source]

What is your wiki name? I would love to join it! Archie 20:48, April 4, 2010 (UTC)

Ebeeto Videos Wiki. --Mr montmorency 20:57, April 4, 2010 (UTC)

Profane language[edit source]

I saw you used some profane language on your userpage, I have removed it because our policies do not allow. Profanity is not a good way to express yourself, as you must always keep a good behavior. Any more similar action, a warning will be given. Thank you! --Guilherme Guerreiro (talk here) 15:36, June 14, 2011 (UTC)
