[edit] Re: Ad Suggestion (by me again)

Hi, I just had an idea. After I saw the ad for WikiProject Pennsylvania, I though that it would be good if there was an ad for The Strategy Games WikiProject. I also thought I could surprise my buddy AndonicO with it, since he made bothe the Portal and WikiProject. I'll post an image that you can use on the side, like the Penna flag you used for the Pennsylvania WikiProject. RyGuy 18:43, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

'kay, here's a good image to use, it's also used on the UBX.

Hi, thank you for your suggestion. I'll see what I can do – Qxz 20:21, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

That's really good, I like it! RyGuy 11:24, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
Wow, it's good! I like it too. Thanks for the surprise Ry! · AO Talk 11:58, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
I knew you would like it! :D RyGuy 12:10, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
There's only one huge problem with it: it's missing a period after "Join the Strategy games WikiProject". :-) Oh, and "Games" is lower case (per WP:NAME) · AO Talk 12:15, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
Okay, I'll tell Qxz about it. RyGuy 12:17, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
 :-) · AO Talk 12:25, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
Corrected. You may need to bypass your browser cache for changes to take effect. Thanks – Qxz 00:57, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
Thanks! · AO Talk 15:25, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Qxz

Do you know why he/she left? · AO Talk 12:56, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

No, that is why I think someone else is using the account. RyGuy 13:05, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
I've sent an e-mail; maybe he'll respond, maybe not. · AO Talk 13:51, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
Well, I hope he does, and I hope that the person who left nasty messages wasn't really him. :-\ RyGuy 14:02, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
Same here. Did you notice this revision though? · AO Talk 14:06, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
Yeah, that could be why too. RyGuy 14:24, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

He answered the e-mail. I won't add the e-mail here (since it's disrespectful to post private discussions without the other's consent), but more or less, I'll give you the two main ideas: 1. Forgot to remove e-mail address from preferences. 2. Stop bothering.

He also says he isn't sleep-deprived, since he slept for 18 hours after the insane editing period. Wierd schedule. :) · AO Talk 15:14, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

 :-( I guess I'll have to face the truth (a truth I really don't like). RyGuy 16:27, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
Ryguy, is there a reason you do not have email enabled. I wanted to discuss some stuff but would rather do it via email or through some other medium. -- Chrislk02 (Chris Kreider) 16:50, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
The reason I don't have my E-Mail enabled is because I don't have an account. I plan to get one sometime soon, though. Do you have any ideas on other methods? RyGuy 16:54, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
Not right now, its ok, it was not horribly important. I dont want to discuss any of it in public though. -- Chrislk02 (Chris Kreider) 16:57, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
Okay, I'll tell you when I get an e-mail account (probably around August when I plan to get a laptop with earned money). Probably not to discuss the exact thing you want to tell me now, but just to let you know. RyGuy 17:01, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
You do know there are many places you can get free online email accounts? -- Chrislk02 (Chris Kreider) 17:02, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
Hotmail has an option where you can get an account for free; you might want to try that (ask your mom or dad first though). · AO Talk 17:02, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
I'll figure that out soon, though I would prefer getting the laptop first, since I don't have any Microsoft outlook or anything. Anyway, I'll tell you when I've got that figured out. RyGuy 17:05, 26 March 2007 (UTC)PS - I know that HotMail is web-accessible, I'd just prefer another way, and I'll figure that out when I can. RyGuy
I've never used Outlook; hotmail doesn't work with it any more anyways, so no loss. I just type in "www.hotmail.com" on any computer, type in my password, and check my messages. Easy, and best of all, free. :) · AO Talk 17:08, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
Ok, thats cool. I respect that. Just for the record though, i dont use outlook for almost any of my email. Most web sites such as yahoo, google and the such have free webmail (no need for outlook). I however respect your choice to wait and good luck! -- Chrislk02 (Chris Kreider) 17:09, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

What's going on here? Qxz wrote something that is really usual for a Wikipedian on his Talk Page and his User page is a redirector. Is something wrong with him/her? By the way, AO left something on my user page "You are back?!" that I didn't understand. (Oh boy, this edit conflict thing is getting annoying, I tried saving this more than 5 times already. You can also try a Yahoo! account or maybe Gmail account. I have all three of them. Gmail is big, Yahoo1 is fun, Hotmail is "serious" You don't necessarily need Outlook for any of these.)--Freiddie 17:10, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, sorry about that. I confused you (Freiddy) with User:Fredil Yupigo, who I thought was just Fredil. Hope you'll understand. :) · AO Talk 17:12, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
Alright Fei , I'll explain this one at a time:
  1. I don't really know why Qxz is acting all strange
  2. AndonicO thought you were a different user
  3. I really can't make the decision about E-Mail right now. Anyways, I need MY computer to get web access before I do and e-mail things. (I'm using my parents' computer)

Am I done now? :-) RyGuy 17:16, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

OK, that makes it clear. :-0 --Freiddie 17:57, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
Somehow Wikipedia has become a stage for the exit of users to have undergone devastating change. (I mean a quite a few users are leaving Wikipedia in misery, like Qxz or Fredil (sigh) :-( --Freiddie 18:04, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
I know a few admins who have left too. · AO Talk 18:18, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
Okay, you want E-Mail? Mine is now ryguy-wiki[at]hotmail[dot]com. :-) Easier than I thought. RyGuy 11:34, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
I told you. :) Tell Chris on his talk page, as he might not still be watching yours. · AO Talk 11:39, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
My account is andonicowp(at)hotmail.(com). You can click "E-mail this user" in the toolbox; it's easier. :) · AO Talk 11:56, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
Yeah, but I want to add you to my contacts so it won't put your e-mails in the junk box. RyGuy 11:58, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
And what's wrong with being junk? :) · AO Talk 12:12, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
Good point! :-D RyGuy 12:17, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
Hi Ryan, I saw your message you sent. My address is fei_yuanbw [at] hotmail [dot] com . Why is everyone writing cryptive addresses with [at] instead of @ or [dot] instead of .? Is it because of spamming? Alright, so I'll reply that email soon. And I hope you find out about Qxz. --Freiddie 14:02, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
Yes, it's because of spamming. I do know why Qxz quit, but I promised the person who told me that I wouldn't discuss it. Sorry :-(. RyGuy 14:04, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
Can you at least say if it was good or bad? (for example, good would be that his account was hijacked, bad that he went mad; a bit drastic, but they're just examples). :) · AO Talk 14:10, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
Sadly, bad. :( RyGuy 15:06, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
What a shame... · AO Talk 15:36, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
Yeah.... I wish I could tell you more. RyGuy 15:53, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
I wish you could tell me more too. :) · AO Talk 15:56, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] E-Mail Change

He everyone, I just want you to know that my e-mail has changed. My new account is wikiryguy[at]hotmail[dot]com. RyGuy 17:19, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

Okay, thanks for telling us. · AO Talk 17:54, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Messenger

I've never used messenger before; I'm not that modern. :) · AO Talk 11:44, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

Oh, you have a messenger username on your "profile". Nevermind then. :-) RyGuy 11:45, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Hope you return soon

I'm really sorry about your cat. I don't have much to say, but... (You should be able to see this message should you return.) I hope I see you soon. Have a joyful and relaxing Wikibreak. --Freiddie 16:34, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

I'm glad you back. I hope you've sorted out your problems. Just to let you know, I've recently worked on PAVCS. --Freiddie 16:19, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Your autograph page

I noticed that your autograph page has a list of other autograph books at the bottom. There is now Category:Wikipedian Autograph Pages, so nobody needs to provide a list of pages anymore. Just wanted to let you know! A•N•N•Afoxlover hello! 23:02, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

Okay, thanks Anna. RyGuy 11:03, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Sigs

I noticed you said wanted to sign more autograph books so, sign mine! :) --ÄtΘmicR€£igionesїgñ

[edit] Hey
