User talk:Sam the sim simmer

Welcome

Hi, and welcome to The Sims Wiki, Sam the sim simmer! Thanks for your edit to the Skip Broke/theories page.

Please leave a message on my talk page if I can help with anything about the wiki! (If you have questions about the game, please ask them in our Questions forum.) -- LostInRiverview (Talk) 02:52, October 4, 2010

Warning

"Striking" profanity or replacing some of the letters with stars doesn't make it not-profanity. Therefore:

This is a warning

We are warning you because of profanity. This is a friendly reminder to refrain from making unconstructive edits to The Sims Wiki. Your edits have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the Sandbox, or if you need help please either read our policies or ask an administrator. You may remove this warning once you have read and understood its meaning. If you continue to vandalize you may be blocked. Thank you. — Dharden (talk) 02:52, October 24, 2010 (UTC)

Your images

While your attempts to add images are appreciated, you really to need to add license information when you upload. Also, if you're going to upload an image that's more-or-less thumbnail-sized, it's usually better not to bother. Dharden (talk) 18:19, October 24, 2010 (UTC)

I deleted your Lifetime Wish icons because those images are already present as PNG files. Dharden (talk) 18:35, October 24, 2010 (UTC)

I deleted File:Skinny Dipping Sims.jpg because it is an inferior-quality duplicate of File:Night life new pic 1.jpg , and because you neglected to add license information. You really need to pay more attention to things like that. Dharden (talk) 04:22, October 31, 2010 (UTC)

The guy in the picture might have been skinny-dipping in the hot tub, but since it's not obvious that he is, it's not a good illustration of it. Even if it was, the thing to do would have been to add a link to File:Night life new pic 1.jpg, rather than upload a duplicate. Sooner or later, duplicate images get deleted. It's not malicious. Not having multiple copies of an image makes it easier for people who want to use that image.

As for your attitude, drop it. What makes the wiki format strong, at least when there's an active editing community, is that it's ultimately self-policing. When someone makes a poor edit, sooner or later, someone else will correct it. That's the way wikis work. So, nobody gets to say "don't delete my edits". Not you, not me, not anyone. Sending nasty messages to people who do delete your edits could be considered harassment. It's best that you don't do it. Ask someone why they deleted an edit, sure. Just be civil, and be prepared to accept that maybe they were right to do it.

The only reason I'm bothering with you to this extent is that I know you're trying to be helpful. You're trying to be a good contributor. Keep at it, learn from your mistakes, get over the attitude that your edits are golden and shouldn't be touched. and you could be one. Dharden (talk) 13:21, October 31, 2010 (UTC)

Stop making pointless edits

I removed your edit to 170 Main Street because it's pointless. You may notice that I did not remove the image you added. While it's not great, it'll do until someone uploads a better one. Dharden (talk) 18:23, October 24, 2010 (UTC)

Is that an actual image of 170 Main Street? I'm sure that the layout was a bit different and there was a hot tub on the top. [Ѧüя◎ґ]
