Friends:

These are my complaints. I shudder looking back at it.

[edit] Renaming

Please do not move pages to nonsensical titles, as you did with Captain Underpants 2: The Attack of the Talking Toilets. It is considered vandalism. If you would like to learn more about moving pages, please see the guidelines on this subject. Thank you. GregorB 17:17, 30 August 2006 (UTC) Renamed by error, problem solved. GregorB 20:11, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

I apologize. It was an honest mistake, I had no intention of naming it *%. I was just changing Captain Underpants 2: The Attack of the Talking Toilets into its correct title, Captain Underpants and the Attack of the Talking Toilets. I just was didn't know how to delete the old one, so I named it a nonsensical title, *%. I knew that would haunt me, and again, I apologize.

And don't even say it. I couldn't just rename the old one, because a jerk changed the already correct title into an incorrect name, and something was wrong when I tried to change it back, so I used another method, taking it into a new article.

But, on the plus side, I changed all links I know leading to *% to be sent to the new page, which is here.

In conclusion, apology yada yada yada. DarknessLord 19:24, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

OK. No harm done, I guess. All that is left is to delete this *% entry - should be taken care of by the standard deletion procedure. I apologize for the template warning, maybe that was a bit harsh, but I guess it was an honest mistake on my part too. I striked it out. GregorB 20:11, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

Thank you, and it's okay. I was wondering why that was striked, anyway. DarknessLord 20:20, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Diamond/Pearl Returning Pokemon

Okay then. Tell me how it is irrevelant. And until I get a good answer, I'm gonna keep re-adding it. DarknessLord 00:53, 11 September 2006 (UTC)\

I can't believe that you need to me to explain this to you. Wikipedia is not a video game guide. Read the policy. It is irrelevant to list Pokémon that are "returning". I guess I'll just have to keep taking it out if you're going to be an ignorant little jerk about it. Coltonblue 03:34, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

Well well well, look who's talking about ignorant little jerks. I don't see the difference between returning Pokemon being irrevelent, and new Pokemon being irrevelent (I ask you this, as the ignorant little jerk I am (you know that hurts)). I never said it was a video game guide. Trust me, I have guides of Ruby/Sapphire, FireRed/LeafGreen, and Emerald. Believe me, all I see is a walkthrough and a Pokedex. I don't see "Marill is a returning Pokemon from the second generation."

Furthermore, I can't believe that I have to explain this to you. Wikipedia is not a "delete-everything-you-want" buffet. Read the policy. It is not irrevelant to list Pokemon that are "returning". If it was, it would be irrevelant to list the Pokemon that are "new". I guess I'll juse have to keep adding it back in if you're going to be an ignorant little jerk about it.

(Plus, the policy doesn't say "It is irrevelent to list the Pokemon returning", it would say "If we made a rule about returning Pokemon being irrevelant, why don't we delete the New Pokemon section of Diamond/Pearl.")

Tsk, tsk, what I have to go through these days... DarknessLord 22:16, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

DarknessLord, Please see Wikipedia's no personal attacks policy. Comment on content, not on the contributor; personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Note that continued personal attacks may lead to blocks for disruption. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. Thank you. Even if someone is rude to you, don't be rude back. It's quite common for people to only leave a reply on the other user's talk page, by the way. LinaMishima 22:33, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

Whatever, I was just responding to his childish acts of rudeness. No harm ment... he just had to be so rude I lost my temper...

I'd already figured that out, don't worry. These things can happen, just remember in future to stay calm, always strive to be the more civil one, never let their words have cause. LinaMishima 01:10, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

Okay... you sounded like Yoda there for a second... DarknessLord 20:49, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use images

I just deleted the entire "Pokémon Userboxes" section on your userboxes page. All those images are fair-use and thus cannot be used on userpages. See Wikipedia:Image use policy. Thanks, The Raven's Apprentice ^{(Talk|Contribs)} 07:31, 15 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Avatar minor character page moves

I've reverted your page moves regarding List of Avatar: The Last Airbender major secondary characters and List of Avatar: The Last Airbender minor secondary characters. Please at least provide a reason when making such moves, or, preferably, start a discussion on talk pages if you think the move should be made.--Fyre2387 ^{(talk • contribs)} 21:53, 20 September 2006 (UTC)

Sorry, the title just seemed more logical title-wise.

On a seperate note, I really hate long article titles. When there are few links to it, it's quite annoying to type List of Avatar: The Last Airbender minor/major secondary characters, which is an example of a long title, which is sort of a "run-on sentence type thing". Why can't everything be simpler, like Major Avatar: The Last Airbender episodes. Why do we need the word secondary, since we got main articles, major, and minor. DarknessLord 23:40, 20 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Fair use images: God...

I've had a lot of stress at home, now this?! Seriously, guys, this is driving me crazy. I really don't like when people delete my section that I spent literal hours working on without telling me first. Geez, I was just adding a little fun. All the sites I go to now start out fun, but the stupid rules drive me out. Seriously, next thing you know you'll be hacking into my computer and deleting my desktop because it has images of "copyrighted characters" or something like that. This is where I got my inspiration from. With my luck, you'll probably say this one is fine because I'm always just punching bag nowadays.

Seriously, does anyone go to this page just to say hello? There's no atmosphere in Wikipedia anymore. It's all just "fact this, delete that, waste hour's of someone's spare time making userboxes."

AND WHY DO YOU EVEN CARE about my userboxes?! DarknessLord 23:40, 20 September 2006 (UTC)

Hey, someone asked for help about the userboxes so I'm here to trying and calm the situation. First of all, we're all slightly annoyed about your userboxes because the artwork is property of Nintendo, and according to Wikipedia policy, which is the same as Florida law, since our servers are situated there, is that fair use images can only be used in the article namespace. Now since all your pages have a "User:" prefix, their categorized into the User namespace, and fair use images aren't allowed in this namespace, per WP:FAIR and WP:USER. I'm sorry you've got aggrevated over helpful editors trying to follow the rules, but we hope you aren't deterred from editing Wikipedia, which has still a lot of great stuff on it. We have a great coverage of Pokémon overall, something we'd hope you'd help contribute to it.

If you could actually remove the fair use images from your Userbox page, I'm sure everyone will stop bothering you about them. And I will be having a personal word with User:PinkDeoxys also, it's not just your fault. Sorry for the confusion, Highway ^Daytrippers 15:43, 21 September 2006 (UTC)

Sorry, but even with disclaimers we're still breaching Florida law. For Wikipedia to be taken as a credible source, we need to follow copyright laws, or we'll soon just sink to another fan site. The fact we observe laws as such is one of the reasons we are taken as a serious source. Highway ^Daytrippers 18:56, 21 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] LEGO Star Wars II

There is a move discussion going on there, please do not move it while it's going on(especially when you move it to the WRONG title). —Preceding unsigned comment added by TJ Spyke (talk • contribs)

Hey hey hey calm down. I myself had moved it to LEGO Star Wars 2: The Original Trilogy, so I moved it back. (And I moved it back to the RIGHT title. DarknessLord 19:01, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] "Official" romanization

I'm done changing "Hydora" to "Hydoran" for now.

However, I would still like to see your sources for these so-called "official" romanizations (ie. Shyem, Hydora) NukeMTV 14:37, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Prince Zuko

It was voted on Iroh's page that Zuko not have the Prince aspect as that is a title not a name. Please change it back. H2P ^{(Yell at me for what I've done)} 05:54, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image copyrights

Hello DarknessLord. I'm sorry to say this, but I have some bad news for you. Most of the images that you have uploaded are based upon on unfree copyrighted work, such as a corporate logos and a video game sprites. The results are referred to as derivative works. Since the underlying works are restrictively copyrighted, you can not release the derivatives to the public domain. The following images, I'm sorry to say, are going to need to be deleted:

• Image:Darknesslord.png
• Image:Darknesslordheader.PNG
• Image:Darknesslordnew.PNG
• Image:Ganon history.png
• Image:Villain_fleet.PNG
• Image:Darknesslordheadernew.PNG
• Image:Darknesslordheadernewer.PNG
• Image:Userbars.PNG

Unfree images may only be used sparingly on Wikipedia, and only if they fully comply with our fair use policy. One of the restrictions of the policy is that unfree images can only be used in the article space (not on user pages, or talk pages). I think it would be a good idea for you to read Wikipedia:Image use policy before upoading any additional images. If you have any questions at all, please do not hesitate to ask me (I'll watch your talk page if you want to respond here). You can also ask at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. ×Meegs 10:54, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Your signature

There are two problems with your signature. First, as per WP:SIG, please don't use transclusion in your signature. Second, the use of template space to redirect to your sig is a misuse of template space. Please fix, thanks, —Doug Bell ^talk 20:34, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Your signature

I invite you to read Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/User:Sheynhertz-Unbayg/sig to understand why your templated signature must go. A reasonable-length signature can be encoded raw, as you have already done, but templated signatures are disallowed, even if you have gotten around the technical barrier to such (using the slash in the other direction). Please understand this is not personal, just letting you know. I'll come back and see if you have any questions, but I invite you to substitute any current uses and change your signing habits in the next day or two before it gets deleted. -- nae'blis 05:14, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Left a followup in Complaints

Regarding your signature transclusion; it's right under the last comment. Sorry, was just following the previous comment. -- nae'blis 05:28, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
