[edit] Thanks much

Thanks much for cleaning up the vandalism on my page. I appreciate it a ton and helps me out when someone else does it for me. So again, thanks much and feel free to tell me if there is anything I can do in return! Chickyfuzz123^{(user talk)} 01:58, 27 January 2007 (UTC)

You're quite welcome. Good luck with the exams! CaptainVindaloo ^{t c e} 03:06, 27 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Runescape Cheat Sites

huh, i thought wikipedia was about informing people, not being SILENT on certain subjects. it makes sense to have a couple of the MOST POPULAR cheating websites listed, or at least mentioned. perhaps there should be an article about runescape cheating instead. you can not make wikipedia jagex's puppet.

Sorry, but cheat sites are *not* appropriate here. They do nothing to improve the article, they are a potential threat to RuneScape players (drive-by keylogger attacks), and they give Jagex sufficient reason to order us to remove the RuneScape screenshots in the articles. Cheating also ruins the game for legitimate players. CaptainVindaloo ^{t c e} 02:12, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

that does not make sense... if you do not want people getting keylogged, then show them real cheats, and they will not find the viruses.you should not just pretent real cheating does not exist. Jeremybub 02:32, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

I'm not pretending it doesn't exist. I'm also not pretending that those links harm the article. Excessive fansite links are bad enough, never mind cheat sites. CaptainVindaloo ^{t c e} 02:37, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

perhaps, just the single most popular site? Jeremybub 04:03, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

That's a matter for Talk:RuneScape, but I doubt it. We might as well be linking to a hacking site in the Microsoft Windows article, and it'll need a higher Alexa rank than the RuneHQ, Tip.it and Zybez fansites. CaptainVindaloo ^{t c e} 21:13, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Radiation Cruft

Heh thanks you taught me a new word! bags whould of known it ment that. and yea i like extra information when i read about stuff like that because well like i said i get so into the article i want to know EVERYTHING lol. but on the runescape its not possable to put everything but i dont mind just a little extra.

No problem. I think WP:CRUFT is good advice, but so is WP:POPE. There's no need to go on mass campaigns of annihilation, just need to keep it reasonable. CaptainVindaloo ^{t c e} 17:12, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Garion96's RFA

Thank you for your support in my request for adminship which closed successfully last night. <insert spam> I would also like to encourage you to vote often (just in case you don't) on other candidates since we need more admins. </insert spam> It was nice to see someone again why I gave the official wikipedia welcome. :) Happy editing, Garion96 (talk) 00:12, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

You're welcome! CaptainVindaloo ^{t c e} 02:03, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] RE:Image:Karamja.jpg

I got the image from the official RS map. Hope that helps - • The Giant Puffin • 09:10, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

You mean the in game map? I'll put that as the source then. Cheers, CaptainVindaloo ^{t c e} 16:29, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] My RfA

Thank you for your support in my my recent RfA in which I withdrew because the oppose votes were almost equalling the supporters. I then decided to leave my account (Tellyaddict) and start fresh under a new username, however I quickly decided to reconsider after another user persuaded me not to leave the account - I am now glad I did reconsider because leaving that account and creating a new one was too hasty so I've decided to improve rather than starting again! I hope we can remain civil and that there were no negative feelings caused. Again, thanks for your support even though I withdrew it, your vote is much appreciated! Regards - Tellyaddict (Talk) 19:42, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

You're welcome. Better luck next time. I've got RfA watclisted now, so I won't miss it. CaptainVindaloo ^{t c e} 21:24, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
