found your secret page!

Yeah I found it! (finally)
Oh, yeah, just wondered. Have any vandals ever actually updated your vandal counter while vandalizing your userpage? J.delanoygabsadds 22:19, 23 March 2008 (UTC)

That stinks. If someone ever does, make sure you put a link to the diffs on your userpage. That would beat anything in my "funny stuff" section. J.delanoygabsadds 15:27, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

I'm sorry!

I'm sorry, 110! I thought the system was issuing those warnings automatically now; at least, every time I go to post one, I found it's beaten me to it. Didn't mean to leave you out of the loop, I assure you. --Orange Mike | Talk 17:56, 25 March 2008 (UTC) hoping for Badger glory

Your tone was not unreasonable in the least; a smidgen hurt, perhaps, but by no means unreasonably so. --Orange Mike | Talk 20:01, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

Not really

I don't think that would be the best idea. The other task forces have no such thing, and there is only two of us.--MrFishGo Fish 17:57, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

your userpage!

Your userpage is amazing! just wanted you to know that... :D Would you mind if I copied bits of it (as I can't write it myself), or is that too blatant plagarism of your work? mathwhiz29 18:50, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

If you joined scouting, why isn't your name in the list?--RyRy5 talk 19:56, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
That's the wrong list. Put your name on this list. The one you put your name on is our Watch Department where we see if a member has done anything to be a report.--RyRy5 talk 20:02, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
I just archived my talkpage the second time. I archived it 5 days ago for the first time. I got over 70 messages in just 5 days, wow. Also, do you have any questions about scouting?--RyRy5 talk 20:10, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

Well, I'm the founder of the scouting business as you know. Read the following template. It's the welcome to all scouts. If you still have questions, just ask.

Hi, and welcome to the Scouting Business! The scouts here to monitor all members of the Red Sox WikiProject. We then add any information that we find to the Scouting Report on the main page. The whole scouting business is used so everyone else can see what and how the WikiProject is doing. If you scout often and if you add numerous reports to the main page, a manager will be sure to promote you.

Looking for somewhere to start or do you have nothing to do? Here are a few things you can do:

  • Monitor member's contributions using the members list at the Scouting Office, and if you find a report, add it to the Scouting Report at the main page.
  • Invite other people to join the WikiProject by adding {{WP BOSOX INVITE}} on their talk page so that you can monitor more people.

If you have any comments, suggestions, or would like to talk about the scouting business in general, feel free to leave a message on the Office's talk page or ask the founder of the scouting business on RyRy5's talk page.
