[edit] Boring Title

I was just going about the wiki, seen no one has left you a message in a while. So thought i'd say Hi.

Hi. Critchell ^Talk 00:26, September 13, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Adminship

Can I please be an admin, I have a high edit count, visit this wiki daily, and will try hard to keep vandals and spammers out. Lt. General. Cod1 ^Talk 23:45, September 14, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] RE: IRC you know the channel if you have time and RE: Buncha stuff to talk to you about...

I was on CGI:IRC earlier and I sent Joey some private messages, but he seemed to be AFK. Would ##joeyaa be accessable from CGI:IRC? That's the only IRC that will run for me without locking up my computer in epic lag, and it will only let you go to pre-allowed channels for Wikia wikis. I rarely check my email, also.

How about whenever we both seem to be on the Wiki at the same time, one of us gives the other a message on here to get on #wikia, and we can have a conversation then?

With waffles, Sgt. Chiafriend^Rifleman 05:16, September 15, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] IRc

I'd prefer Joeyaa's channel, but ok. Darkman 4 05:37, September 15, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Re:

Fuck you, you little bitch. Go play in IRC and talk shit about me behind my back and not even give me a chance to defend myself during the conversation? That's absolute bullshit and you know it. Fuck you, I'm leaving this wiki.Fucking nigger ass bitch.--Bigm2793 00:58, September 16, 2009 (UTC)

O.O ....... Well, I cant say I expected that... (no offense to anyone, but... wow) WouldYouKindly 01:11, September 16, 2009 (UTC)

Thats how I felt, BigM. That's how I felt. When you had talked about me behind my back. --CallofDuty4 12:34, September 16, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] From IRC

<Chiafriend12> But yes, I'm talking with Sannse.
<Darkman4> really? damn.
<Darkman4> nice
<Chiafriend12> She wants us to have a community vote because it's essentially protocol.
<Darkman4> ah
<Darkman4> sound fine to me
<Chiafriend12> <sannse> we /much/ prefer it when communities decide such things for themselves... we hate to have to step in, it�s the community that should decide if that�s something they want to remove the flag for
<Darkman4> so where are we gonna do teh vote at? the war room?
<Chiafriend12> Yeah.

[edit] Adminship

Err... I was wondering, since Rs4life is gone... we are basically 1 admin short. I have wanted to become an admin for a long time, as you know. Should I file a request for adminship, would you support me? Also, do you think that is a good idea? Feedback would be nice. --CallofDuty4 12:57, September 16, 2009 (UTC)

Right now the plan is to de-crat Bigm, but he's staying as an admin. Chia talked with him on Runescape and he regrets saying what he said yesterday. However, he does not want to be a crat anymore.

This doesn't mean that you can't run for admin right now. :) Darkman 4 16:59, September 16, 2009 (UTC)

Ok, but I don't want that to fail again. I can't risk the humiliation again. --CallofDuty4 17:49, September 16, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] BigM

I think either a wiki-wide apology or an apology to those he harmed would be fine. Darkman 4 20:08, September 16, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Adminship

Thanks man. That really provides me with a lot of info. --CallofDuty4 20:33, September 16, 2009 (UTC)

Sure, I'll keep that in mind. Thanks. --CallofDuty4 09:31, September 17, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Rs4life07

It might not be my place but if any other user had said what he said they would have been banned instantly Critchell ^Sniper 20:43, September 16, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Master's I.p.

you forgot to unblock 80.131.204.122 this is master 190's ip adress. Lt. General. Cod1 ^Talk 23:36, September 16, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Blocked?

I was recently autoblocked because my ip address was being used by another user that was blocked. Can someone explain what happened? Did I do something wrong?

Random Man 0213 00:27, September 17, 2009 (UTC)

No. (An IP) 01:49, September 17, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Template

Sure, go ahead. Darkman 4 07:41, September 17, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] BigM

I would like to see a wiki-wide vote wity the question: Should Rs4life07 be stripped of his admin powers. This is just a suggestion. --CallofDuty4 09:38, September 17, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Re:

I spoked with Chia and he told me he was going to put it to a war room vote. I also expressed my regret and admitted I got carried away. I would, however, like one more chance with my admin tools. My bureaucrat tools, I will give up freely.--Bigm2793 11:49, September 17, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Box covers

So, while I was looking for a relatively high resolution logo from the Call of Duty 3 cover to use to make an icon out of the three for {{topright}}, I started to come across some things.

You're a computer user, right? Well here is a German PS3 cover for Call of Duty 3, nearly identical to the cover of my copy for my 360. The strange thing I noticed is this. The back cover and actor on the front are different. Possibly a considered, but unreleased, design.

Here is what looks like an alpha cersion of the cover for Call of Duty 4. Could that be Jackson?

Here is what appears to be a British cover for World at War which wasn't made to be the actual cover. Though, looking on the back, I noticed two things: "resistant" is misspelled as "ersistant", and a period is missing between "before" and "harness". That makes me think it's just a really good fan-made cover, or that the designer wasn't a good proofreader.

As for here (warning: 7MB image), we have another cover that looks like it was considered but not accepted. However, on the back at nearly the bottom, it says "©2005 Activision Publishing, Inc". Ahem, I think that's the wrong year.

A few months before the World at War cover was finalized, I remember looking through Google's results for a cover of it. I saw a few different ones, but one that I remember the most was of an impromptu grave of a soldier with a wooden cross stuck in the ground, if I remember right.

What do you think? While I wouldn't be surprised if some of them were actually just exquisitely produced fan covers, I think that they are quite interesting to view. Sgt. Chiafriend^Rifleman 01:24, September 19, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Requirement to vote

Well, as it turns out, we passed something while you were away. Sgt. Chiafriend^Rifleman 02:54, September 19, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Adminship

Yes i hardly believe people over internet because i do physcially know 'em so can please try to request again i do a find job on Made Up Characters wiki even though i made that wiki.SSJJ TSSJJ 21:58, September 21, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Since you said such

Since you said that you thought that the voting policy should be reduced to only requiring twenty-five edits, I went with that and made a War Room topic. Sgt. Chiafriend^Rifleman 01:41, September 29, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] IRC

Now, or within the next hour, I have an idea I'd like feedback on... Joey ^aa 07:05, October 4, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Bureaucratship

In light of the fact that you're hardly even active right now (one edit in two weeks? Gah.), I nominated you for bureaucratship. (link) Sgt. Chiafriend^Rifleman 06:33, October 13, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] RFA

Thank you very much for your vote. It's hard to stress how much that means to me. Thank you very much. -- Callofduty4 ^Talk 16:47, October 16, 2009 (UTC)

I'm one of the most mature users on this wiki what are you talking about? Lt. General. Cod1 ^Talk 21:42, October 16, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] RE: Zomg it's Chia!

Well, I was just finishing my mini-project of the day of giving a small group of Call of Duty 2: Big Red One characters images to go with their infoboxes. Seriously, characters from that game have scarce images on them. Sgt. Chiafriend^Rifleman 04:37, October 17, 2009 (UTC)

You missed CHIA-FM 2's short beta period, if you care. And thanks, I put a lot of effort into it. Over eighty available songs!

What does "SOAD" stand for? System of a Down, right? Sgt. Chiafriend^Rifleman 04:41, October 17, 2009 (UTC)

IRC would be so much easier. Sgt. Chiafriend^Rifleman 04:49, October 17, 2009 (UTC)

1. Wikia. We can figure out stuff from there. Sgt. Chiafriend^Rifleman 04:53, October 17, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Re:

Thank you very much. I'll keep that in my head -- Callofduty4 ^Talk 09:31, October 17, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Checking in...

Thanks a lot Creepydude, I appreciate your support. I do try my best to be friendly to everyone, no matter how I feel about them. I just keep those thoughts in my head and be civil in what I type. I plan on being active for quite some time, as I do most of my editing at work since I'm just sitting at a counter all day (I work at my uncle's gun shop and man the front desk, as well as do some gunsmithing). I try to take part in all community discussions, too. I had actually never planned on running for admin, but now that Chia nominated me and I'm closer to the tools than ever before, I definitely like that feeling, so I'll probably run again if I don't get it this time. Anyway, I hope you get bureaucrat, you deserve it. Spc. SoLAXD(m) ^Talk 15:49, October 17, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Banners

Earlier today I finished the first draft for a World at War banner.

After a little bit of thought, I figured it would be easier with image compilation if I used both Modern Warfare and Modern Warfare 2 images for a modern banner.

I also had the idea of making one banner per game, but I quickly decided that I would not be motivated enough to do that. I still plan on making a general World War II banner, though.

I plan on uploading the drafts at starting a discussion once I've at least also finished the modern banner, which I haven't started yet. Sgt. Chiafriend^Rifleman 05:01, October 18, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Hi

Hi could i get a new page on my profile cause i alrdy stffed it up and i only just joined

[edit] Hey Boyeee

You need to pre-order L4D2. They're letting you pre-load the demo now. Darkman 4 13:14, October 24, 2009 (UTC)

Find someone that's selling a copy from the 4-pack that's on steam. They run about $33 a pop. Darkman 4 21:55, October 30, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Bureaucratship (2)

You're now a bureaucrat. You now have access to Special:UserRights. Congratulations! Sgt. Chiafriend^Rifleman 22:01, October 30, 2009 (UTC)

Heh. :) Sgt. Chiafriend^Rifleman 22:08, October 30, 2009 (UTC)

Congratulations man. I still remember the day you posted the welcome message to my page. Gosh that seems a long time ago now. -- Callofduty4 ^Talk 22:16, October 30, 2009 (UTC)

Thanks a lot. Means a lot to me. -- Callofduty4 ^Talk 22:25, October 30, 2009 (UTC)

Congratulations. I can't really think of an overly personal message right now, so I'll just say congratulations in Spanish, Italian, German, Russian, and Arabic: Felicidades, Congratulazioni, Glückwünsche, Поздравления, and تهانينا! Spc. SoLAXD(m) ^Talk 22:28, October 30, 2009 (UTC)

Haha, and thanks. It's no big deal to me that I didn't get admin, it's not too high on my priority list. I'll get it when I get it, and I'm fine with that. I like to take life as it comes, it makes for a hell of a lot less stress. Spc. SoLAXD(m) ^Talk 22:57, October 30, 2009 (UTC)

Grats man, you've earned it. And thanks for your congratulations on my adminship, I appreciate it. WouldYouKindly 02:29, October 31, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Sorry

I'm sorry for my imature behavior. You don't know how I feel because you won, it's sad to see all this vandalism and not be able to block the vandal or protect pages :(. I hope would you kindly and Call of duty 4 do a good job as admins and you do a good job as a bureacrat, and I hope I become an admin someday :). PS. Why did almost no one vote for me? Lt. General. Cod1 ^Talk 23:11, October 30, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Protecting Pages

I've unprotected your user page as there is no prior history with vandalism nor is it pleasant for newcomers to have "GTFO" plastered when they view the source of your page to copy their own. Thanks. Joey ^aa 06:38, October 31, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] How to...

How do I make my own sandbox?--Dbx25 02:09, November 3, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] t.y.

thanks for showing me how! to make my own sandbox!

[edit] Have a look at this

You need to have a say here. Forum:An_extremely_serious_discussion_regarding_Modern_Warfare_2 -- Callofduty4 ^Talk 18:41, November 4, 2009 (UTC)

My idea - err... the temporary administrators thing was, but the idea of protecting pages was Imrlybord7's. I don't see why it's a bad idea, but everyone's entitled to their own opinions. -- Callofduty4 ^Talk 19:55, November 5, 2009 (UTC)

Well, this was certainly a polite response for another admin, Creepy. What is this, 4chan? Or is it the CoD Wiki? -- SgM. Akyoyo ^Talk 05:04, November 6, 2009 (UTC)

Oh, alright, I get what you're saying now Creepy. You make a pretty good point. Never mind me, then, I guess -- SgM. Akyoyo ^Talk 14:45, November 6, 2009 (UTC)

Heh, I do understand. Talk to Imrlybord. He had the whole idea of protecting pages -- Callofduty4 ^Talk 18:16, November 6, 2009 (UTC)

I don't want to you to apologize. I threw the idea out the window. Hell, if I knew I would have pissed you off this much I wouldn't have posted it. Seems I'm wrong again. Oh, regarding the guy I blocked indefinitely, I don't have any respect for people if they post racist messages, even if it was a joke. It ain't funny. Maybe I did overreact. Maybe it was a joke. Maybe I was wrong yet again. -- Callofduty4 ^Talk 18:26, November 6, 2009 (UTC)

I posted the above message before I read what you put on my page. But yeah again, I do understand. I think the site announcement thing could go very well, but at the same time it could go wrong. It's a good idea in essence, we could try it out. -- Callofduty4 ^Talk 18:29, November 6, 2009 (UTC)

I know what to do. I guess I should be more careful. -- Callofduty4 ^Talk 18:36, November 6, 2009 (UTC)

Wow, those site notices sound like great ideas. If you could do both, that would be very appreciated. I wish I could do more than just suggest things to people, but, you know, I'm not any sort of Administrator...yet. ;) -- SgM. Akyoyo ^Talk 19:22, November 6, 2009 (UTC)

Ok I'll do the colon thing. Thanks a lot! -- Callofduty4 ^Talk
