Image
I have an off-topic image that I want on my userpage, but I don't want to upload it. I remember you saying somthing about hotlinking a pic to a page on the off-topic image forum. Do you know how I can put the image on my page without uploading it? LONG LIVE THE SQUEES!!!

Virus
I have changed my password. I don't really know what happened. I got that spyware thing from walmart, and now my computer is literatly dooing better than ever. Also, I DID NOT UPLOAD THOSE IMAGES. I'mbeing truthful when I say that. Fastlizard and I got into a little quarlesome about me disobeying the rules...i read the rules. Now granite, there was a few images that i should have tagged with fanart before whatever happened on my computer and ill face the conciquences, but i didnt' upload those images.
 * Well, I happen to know a little bit more about how the internet works (including viruses and other malware), and there is no virus that would upload images to Wikitroid. Viruses built to hijack your computer do one of two things: They either steal personal information from your computer without your knowledge, or they turn your computer into a zombie (would Manchurian Candidate be a better term?) that sends spam email to and launches distributed denial-of-service attacks against millions of people.  It's unprofitable for malware writers to do anything else.  If someone were to hack into your account, why would they hack into your account, where they could do relatively nothing, instead of choosing an administrator's account (such as Piratehunter's, Armantula's, or mine) where they could cause serious trouble?  In other words, your story doesn't add up.  It's perfectly alright to admit you uploaded the images (if you did), we all make mistakes.  By the way, sign your talk page posts with four tildes .  And, to be honest, connecting to the internet without using an up-to-date antivirus, antispyware, firewall, and intrusion monitor is plain stupid.  It's like going into battle without a gun and without armor.  -- FastLizard4 {ADMIN} (Talk&bull;Contribs&bull;Logs) 08:05, 25 January 2009 (UTC)

Block?
Could you explain this block to me?

I see nothing in the contribs worthy of a block. Could you unblock or explain to me why you blocked them? -- FastLizard4 {ADMIN} (Talk&bull;Contribs&bull;Logs) 03:25, 9 February 2009 (UTC)

I've been playing metroid games over eight years and I've played all but Metroid II ans Iv'e got a pretty good analysis on all of them. Metroid Prime is my fav game. Yours?M110 18:57, 3 January 2009 (UTC)m110

I cannot tell you which game is my favorite from the series, but my default answer for this situation would be Super Metroid, but that's only because it was my first video game. Interesting resume', by the way. Check my user page, if you haven't already. Armantula513 [ADMIN] (Talk&bull;Contribs) 20:47, 4 January 2009 (UTC)

Thou art a gentleman and a scholar, and I thanketh thee, for the splendid banner thou hast bestowed on me. It's gnarley! Thanks! Squee master 21:55, 6 January 2009 (UTC) Long Live the Squees!

Brain Segmentation Fault
I was doing some work in Firefox today when a certain headline scrolled across my news ticker. And because I am (obviously) a Metroid fan, I didn't exactly read it correctly. To see what I mean, go here and follow the red arrow to the red box. Enjoy! -- FastLizard4 {ADMIN} (Talk&bull;Contribs&bull;Logs) 06:43, 15 January 2009 (UTC)

Email
Hello. I was just wondering if you received the email I sent to you on (or about) December 19, 2008. If you did not receive it, please let me know so I can resend it. Thanks, FastLizard4 {ADMIN} (Talk&bull;Contribs&bull;Logs) 06:35, 18 January 2009 (UTC)

Help An Old Friend?
Nice to see you're still in tact and alive, (for now), (maniacal laugh), (which is better than evil laugh), (wow that's alot of parentheses). Anyway, can you help an old friend out? Every time I go to a new page I get logged out, forcing me to login every time I go to a new page, which I simply can't do. Can you maybe tell what this might be or how to fix it? P i r a t e h u n t e r {ADMIN} (Talk&bull;Contribs) 22:59, 20 January 2009 (UTC)

Actually, I've encountered this problem before. I did two things to fix it, (of the two I am unsure of which did it,) including... Checking the "Keep me logged in" box at the login screen, and reinstalling Firefox. If one of these two things didn't solve the problem, then the problem might have solved itself over a period of time. If anything, I would guess that you inadvertently removed the cookie that keeps you logged into your Wikia account. Armantula513 [ADMIN] (Talk&bull;Contribs) 10:53, 21 January 2009 (UTC)

RE: A question about uploading an image.
Well, yes I agree with you. Mostly because I told him the same thing on his talk page that you did on mine, but in other words. lol. Thanks by the way for the info on my login problem! P i r a t e h u n t e r {ADMIN} (Talk&bull;Contribs) 20:16, 21 January 2009 (UTC)

More patrolling notes
Sorry about this, but I'm afraid that I am going to have to once again put the brunt of page patrolling on you this week. I came down with a moderate case of vertigo yesterday and probably won't be on the computer at all this week, perhaps longer. Until then, you (and the other admins) will have to do work I normally do. However, I will return when I can. -- FastLizard4 {ADMIN} (Talk&bull;Contribs&bull;Logs) 05:29, 2 February 2009 (UTC)

whered u get the music at?
I am a metroid fan but i cant find the song that i like,all they have are remixes,any help?-space_pirate__annihalator

Misunderstanding
Whoa, whoa, whoa. Sure I'm irritated, but not at anyone in particular, least of all you. I'm just irritated because of this bloody problem withe my login ability. Again, I'm irritated, but not mad. It's just that you kinda' pushed my buttons. I just took the small things in that post the wrong way due to my subliminally irritated state of mind. LoL, Sorry for my confuse..ed..ness... yeah. I'll try to be a tad less, umm, odd. Yeah that's the word, lol. P i r a t e h u n t e r {ADMIN} (Talk&bull;Contribs) 23:54, 2 February 2009 (UTC)

Norion Image
I am not sure what it is, it is not from in game I think. Unless it is in the unlockable artwork. I am not aware that it is fan art. I will delete it if in needed, but i really don't know. I think the Elysia page has a similar picture, and i remember its caption being 'an artist's impression of the planet Elysia' If it does turn out to be fan art, i am very sorry i uploaded it. Hellkaiserryo12 21:17, 8 February 2009 (UTC) -EDIT- I have tracked the image to its original page, it was in with in-game screenshots of Norion, so it is possible it is an official peice of art. http://www.giantbomb.com/planet-norion/95-653/ this is also where the Elysia image came from. Hellkaiserryo12 21:22, 8 February 2009 (UTC)

Adminship
Hey Armantula513. I've got a request. In case you didn't know, Wikia recently allowed it so that b'crats can now remove sysop status (but not b'crat status). So what I was wondering if you could remove my admin status. The main reason is I'm not active here so I can't really help out the community. I'm still a helper though, so I would still be able to do things that admins can do, though like I said I'm not active here so if someone was to ask me to get involved in something I probably wouldn't be able to because of not knowing what's going on. So if you could remove my sysop status that would be sweet, thanks.--Richardtalk 23:15, 24 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Oh, never mind, I forgot I'm a b'crat here. I'll have to ask Wikia then, sorry.--Richardtalk 23:23, 24 February 2009 (UTC)

Welcome
Hello. We're looking at ways to make the new welcome tool even more customizable so you'll be able to choose whether or not it welcomes IPs. You can find out more about this and other new features at wikia:Forum:New features coming on Wednesday. Angela (talk) 05:25, 19 March 2009 (UTC)

april fools joke
Excuse me. I am a new user. and i have just been banned for posting a harmless april fools joke (which was VERY clearly marked as such). It harmed nobody and i personally think my being banned is a little extreme given the situation. Had i done anything worse, i could see this happening. but i made certain to mark it has a joke, and made it easily revertible. I understand if you do not appriciate a once yearly holiday when it becomes remotely appropriate to play pranks, but i was not aware of the seriousness of this stigma. Exdeath64 03:22, 3 April 2009 (UTC)

Aren't jokes supposed to be funny? ;P ChozoBoy (Talk/Contribs) 05:01, 3 April 2009 (UTC)

It way a parody of how at the end of every game, depending on completion level, samus is shown in more and more revealing attire. Not to mention the fact that it is slightly belivable, aside from the fact that i tagged on "...april fools" Exdeath64 13:57, 3 April 2009 (UTC)


 * That doesn't make it right (And I'm sure a few n00bs got an eye opener/Went and finished their games as fast as they could...) Errrr... It was wrong!


 * Exdeath64, remember that Wikitroid is not a social networking site. This is a given fact. This site is first and foremost meant to provide non-fictitious information, and is certainly not intended for humor and/or entertainment. This means that you are restricted from displaying false information, and the content you added is thus considered vandalism. Your serious punishment is based on multiple factors. For one, you edited the Main Page, something that a junior user without at least Rollbacking rights is not allowed to do. Second, your content added was not only fictitious, but also inappropriate; (putting emphasis on nudity, if I'm correct.) I have heard from multiple users that their friends and/or relatives of a young age read this wiki from time to time. Finally, your vandalism to the main page, (considered as such, no matter if it were April 1st or April 2nd,) was your first edit to the Wiki. How was I to know that you weren't simply a malicious vandal when this was your only edit at the time? A reminder, you are not permanently banned. Your block will expire in about six days. In this time, you are free to brush up on your Wikia working ethics & guidelines. Armantula513 [ADMIN] (Talk&bull;Contribs) 21:59, 3 April 2009 (UTC)

Bryyo Image


I recently updated the Bryyo Image with a new one, it is larger but needs altering to look better than the previous one. Feel up to it? Hellkaiserryo12 17:26, 5 April 2009 (UTC)

Great job, man! Are these 480p?

You know, I'm really against pirating games, but I've heard that there is a new way to run Wii games at a higher than normal res on PC. Just saying, in case there is something we really want to get in better detail. I think the program is called "Dolphin" or something. ChozoBoy (Talk/Contribs) 21:02, 5 April 2009 (UTC)

Ah, here. ChozoBoy (Talk/Contribs) 21:12, 5 April 2009 (UTC)

Yeah, looks amazing! I found one for Corruption here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AFu3p9n2jR8&feature=related You really have to watch these in HD. It must be incredible in real life to play these! Hellkaiserryo12 21:26, 5 April 2009 (UTC)

Vacation
In case you don't know already, I will be on vacation from Thursday, 9 April 2009 through Sunday, 12 April 2009 (PDT, UTC -07:00). Likewise, I will probably be unable to edit Wikitroid, so you guys will have to fill in for me. Should be nothing different than what you normally do, except you might have a little more to do (just like when I'm normally gone during the school week). Here are a few notes I want to leave in case I don't get a chance to edit on Sunday before the school week starts:
 * Don't worry about closing Samuslovr1's RfA, I'll do that when I get a chance. However, do revert any votes made after voting has ended.
 * If there is anything you feel needs my attention, leave it to me, but leave a note on my talk page so I'll know to handle it when I return.
 * Obviously, I will not be on IRC while I'm gone. Might be best for someone to take the initiative and idle there for most of the day while I'm gone.

Well, that's all. Happy editing, FastLizard4 {ADMIN} (Talk&bull;Contribs&bull;Logs) 08:22, 9 April 2009 (UTC)

A question I always wanted to ask
I sorry about the new account thing, it was only because I was banned. No worries, I haven't given up on Metroid (I may never will). But that's not my point. The question I've been dying to ask is... Who created Wikitroid? Is he/she still alive or dead? Is he/she an administrator or not? Plz, answer this question.
