Hello. Can you look @ my contribs and reply to my questions? Please? Thanks. 24.94.89.214 11:28, August 15, 2011 (UTC)

Particularly, the Varia Suit's talk and Super Metroid's talk. And why? Because, I need you to help. My regular "teachers" aren't replying. 24.94.89.214 21:29, August 15, 2011 (UTC)

Words of Advice
I would not make a habit out of removing others' posts on your talk page. Unless removing posts for the sake of cleaning vandalism or something of that nature, you are interfering with archiving "protocol(s)". Albeit, your page's history can always be checked for this information; one, histories can be deleted; and two, it is unnecessary for the people who actually need to potentially view it. So whilst it is not against the rules to remove these posts for the simple sake of removing the posts, it is against the rules to remove them for the matter of archive interference. Please remember this in the future, as blocking is potential for this issue. Takk. -- Pιʀaτзнυɳτзʀ {ADMIN} (Talk&bull;Contribs&bull;Logs) 22:21, August 15, 2011 (UTC)

Images
Please label your images with descriptive titles. "File:Metroid4 screen001.jpg" isn't a very descriptive title. A more descriptive title would be "File:Prerelease BSL Station.jpg" and has been changed to such. Also, please remove any and all watermarks from images that you upload to the site. Thank you.

 * Sorted — Cropped the image to hide GameSpot watermark. Thanks for telling me that. -- Hounder4 (Talk) (Contribs) 22:37, November 11, 2011 (UTC)
 * If I remember correctly, there is a way to remove watermarks without cropping, but I'm not an expert on the topic. The MarioGalaxy2433g5  { talk /contribs} 22:40, November 11, 2011 (UTC)
 * You're probably right that... -- Hounder4 (T) (C) 23:00, November 11, 2011 (UTC)

I'd rather have to remember on labeling in future anyhow (although I understand the image policy). -- Hounder4 (T) (C) 23:19, November 11, 2011 (UTC)

Preview
Please preview your edits. You made 13 edits to Pyrosphere Glitch in a row. It clogs up the recent changes, and makes it difficult for admins and patrollers to patrol. The MarioGalaxy2433g5  { talk /contribs} 21:27, December 17, 2011 (UTC)
 * Uh, what? Don't entirely know why you don't consider yourself useful, I think you are. The MarioGalaxy2433g5  { talk /contribs} 00:08, December 18, 2011 (UTC)
 * You're right then — I am "useful". I know how to use a Preview before, but thanks for reminding me. -- Hounder4 (T)  (C) 10:47, December 18, 2011 (UTC)

TCRF
So, I was at the TCRF just now, and I found in the edit histories for Metroid game articles that you were there. This might be a stupid question but are you able to hack? Can you possibly hack MP2 and see if there's a debug name for UMS 12? I get my hopes up too high. Can never find a Metroid game hacker! -- r o y b o y X (Complaints Board • Resume) 21:22, January 2, 2012 (UTC)
 * I don't think it's possible to find the exact name for that map... -- Hounder4 (T) (C) 22:11, January 2, 2012 (UTC)
 * Can anything be found? A model? Textures? Any sort of reference? -- r o y b o y X (Complaints Board • Resume) 22:19, January 2, 2012 (UTC)
 * Not really, as of now... — However, I added unused stuff from other Metroid games I found at TCRF: unused text strings from Metroid: Other M (e.g. scrapped dialogue), unused music from Metroid Prime Hunters (unused menu theme, hunter entrance themes) and an uncertified object (space station?) and a Test room in MPH: First Hunt demo. -- Hounder4 (T)  (C) 23:37, January 2, 2012 (UTC)

'K
I didn't know that, actually. Thanks for telling me. Dr. Anonymous 18:01, January 9, 2012 (UTC)

Thanks
Thanks for the help with the vandalism. The MarioGalaxy2433g5  { talk /contribs} 17:24, January 18, 2012 (UTC)
 * No probs. -- Hounder4 (T)  (C) 17:33, January 18, 2012 (UTC)

Favor
Being that you are able to get ahold of images from MPH, can I request that you find one for Navigational Chart? If it isn't too much trouble. -- r o y b o y X (Complaints Board • Resume) 23:36, January 25, 2012 (UTC)
 * Got it captured and added to the page. Thanks in advance. -- Hounder4 (T)  (C) 15:48, January 26, 2012 (UTC)

Dang it
I need to stop forgetting to remove the image outside the infobox. I don't cut and paste it because it would remove the infobox from the paste-thingy, plus the image normally has a thumbnail which shouldn't be used when inside an infobox. Thanks for removing it whenever I leave the image though. The MarioGalaxy2433g5  { talk /contribs} 16:26, January 27, 2012 (UTC)

Oh.. I thought it just did that when you add the category. Just goes to show how inexperienced in Wikia formatting I am. Thanks! 23:50, January 31, 2012 (UTC)

Rollback
Thanks for the help with the vandalism. Would you like to consider requesting rollback privilages? It adds an extra button that makes reverting vandalism easier. You can do so here. The MarioGalaxy2433g5  { talk /contribs} 22:26, February 10, 2012 (UTC)
 * Your rollback request has been approved . You should now see a [rollback] button next to edits when viewing diffs and in page history and in recent changes.  Remember that rollback is to be used to revert vandalism or your own edits only. The  MarioGalaxy2433g5  { talk /contribs} 00:06, February 11, 2012 (UTC)

Wow, where IS everybody? Or did they all just flee because Roy's getting promoted tomorrow? ;-) Seriously though, I'm glad hr's finally getting what he deserves. User: Dr. Anonymous1 23:23, February 15, 2012 (UTC)

Question
What editor are you using? What skin? -- R o y b o y X (talk) 20:48, March 5, 2012 (UTC)
 * The "Source" code editor in Oasis (or Wikia?) skin. -- HOUNDER4 {ROLLBACK} (T)  (C)  (B) 20:59, March 5, 2012 (UTC)
 * Please try switching to the Monobook editor, a lot of edits made recently, not just by you, have put extra spacing in articles. -- R o y b o y X (talk) 22:35, March 5, 2012 (UTC)
 * Switched to Monobook. Don't know how the blank spaces got to articles regardless whether you add something not via Oasis. Couldn't this be an issue when editing articles with the Oasis editor only (because editing an article using Monobook editor doesn't add spaces)? -- Hounder4  {ROLLBACK} (T)  (C)  (B) 23:02, March 5, 2012 (UTC)
 * It's because the Oasis editor and the whole skin itself is complete crap. Because of that, I use Monobook and thus have knowledge of how to use its advanced but much more rewarding features. -- R o y b o y X (talk) 23:34, March 5, 2012 (UTC)
 * Roy, the spacing doesn't matter. >_< The MarioGalaxy2433g5  { talk /contribs} 02:16, March 6, 2012 (UTC)
 * Also, if you use the source mode anyways, changing so it defaults to source editor in special:preferences will make it so the spacing doesn't change. So you don't have to use monobook if you don't want to. The MarioGalaxy2433g5  { talk /contribs} 02:23, March 6, 2012 (UTC)

Suggestion
Why not look over Wikitroid:Requests for deletion/Cyborg and decide what to do. -- R o y b o y X (talk) 21:12, March 6, 2012 (UTC)

Can you also vote on the templates RfC that desperately needs attention? -- R o y b o y X (talk) 18:39, March 24, 2012 (UTC)
