Revision as of 20:15, 10 July 2009
If you want to talk about my greatness to others, or slander me behind my back, at least address me as "he". If you want to cut down typing time just call me "sponge" or "S-dogg".
Oh, by the way, this is the most important thing. If I send you a message, can you please re. on my page and I'll do vice versa. I know I've got no right to ask this, but its just my watchlist is a bit crowded, and I love the orange "you have new messages (last change)" thing you get. If you don't want to that's cool, I'll understand if you don't like your talk page being too long.
Actually, I'd prefer to keep discusssions together, so ignore the strikethroughed comment, and do the opposite.

Hello
Remember me, you signed my guestbook;) Thought I'd drop in and say hello. I like how you actually create a page requesting barnstars...I don't have the courage to do that. Though I wish to get one for good humor for this[1], the anti vandal barnstar for over 1000 reverts, or the new page patroller because I've done some of that. If any of those can work out. Thanks;)SchnitzelMannGreek. 20:45, 29 June 2009 (UTC)
- Thanks a bunch;)--SchnitzelMannGreek. 21:02, 29 June 2009 (UTC)
- P.S.What is your email('cause I'm making a list of all the emails of people I know wether in real life or wiki).?SchnitzelMannGreek. 00:13, 30 June 2009 (UTC)
Thanks!
Thanks for the good humor barnstar, its much appreciated. Alas, a handful of rather prudish Admins "asked" me to stop using them during a (surprise) AN/I. Now I've resorted to slightly less humorous messages. I'll keep up the good fight for justice in a world where a number of editors seem to suffer from terminal case of seriousness. I mean, this is fun and informative --but this is still Wikipedia, where we celebrate 750 years of American history. --Bobak (talk) 04:33, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

Hi there...
Been a long time... Just thought I'd drop in and say hi... Rkr1991 (talk) 09:14, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
Getting boring... Thought you'd have something funny to say, as always... Rkr1991 (talk) 08:10, 2 July 2009 (UTC)
- Oh, sorry. Can't think of anything today. I'm too tired. I think I'll need to go to sleep soon. Spongefrog, (talk to me, or else) 08:13, 2 July 2009 (UTC)
- Cheers. Just don't forget me.. Rkr1991 (talk) 11:31, 2 July 2009 (UTC)
- I won't. Because I have a photographic memory and I remember everything![1] Spongefrog, (talk to me, or else) 18:59, 2 July 2009 (UTC)
- ^ Actually, I don't. But I wish I did so that still counts.
Your userbox
Can now be found here. That way you can transclude it on to a page (i.e. {{user:Spongefrog/Userbox}}) instead of having all the code on there. -t'shaelchat 20:03, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
Thanks. Spongefrog, (talk to me, or else) 07:47, 2 July 2009 (UTC)
- Not a problem at all. :) -t'shaelchat 07:50, 2 July 2009 (UTC)
Ah, the fun that is Bambifan101.
I've been editing this site on and off practically since it started and I've never seen anything quite like this dinglefritz. He's so bad that I believe he warranted his own long-term abuse page, so I went ahead and created one in case any questions like yours came up. You can find it here. Regards, --PMDrive1061 (talk) 17:59, 3 July 2009 (UTC)
PS: Diggin' your username and pages. Very fun stuff. :)
- Wow. I found a page with all his sockpuppets. Thats a lot. You like my username? I was going to get it changed, but then I realised I would have to tell everyone I ever spoke to who I was. Spongefrog, (talk to me, or else) 20:24, 3 July 2009 (UTC)
Not meaning to but in but
I saw the question on T'Shael's page. Bambifan is a long time sockpuppeter who apparently enjoyes targerting Disney articles. One of his (or hers, I'll just stay with "his" for now) is to trick established users, like yourself, to do what he can't from page protecting. Hope this helps!

Eva Stellenbosch
Your proposed deletion was reverted by User:Uncle G because he seems to feel you really want a merge rather than a delete. Technically he is right, I think you want the page to end up as a redirect to List of Alex Rider characters rather than be scrubbed out completely. You can do this yourself, there is no need for an administrator to delete the page, just replace the current article content with #redirect [[List of Alex Rider characters#Eva Stellenbosch]]
. You can add any material worth keeping to the "List..." article. You are not obliged to keep all the material, if it is all redundant/not wanted then all you need do is remove the merge template from the "List" article. Hope that helps. SpinningSpark 19:02, 3 July 2009 (UTC)
In response to your query on PMDrive's page, anyone can remove a prod tag, so the next step for this article would be AfD. -t'shaelchat 21:25, 3 July 2009 (UTC)
Do you ever leave Wikipedia? Anyway, an AfD. Yes, an AfD...What the hell's an AfD?! I suppose I'll have to click the links and find out, but it'll have to wait, I'm going to bed (you could always do it for me. Please.). Spongefrog, (talk to me, or else) 21:29, 3 July 2009 (UTC)
- lol, nope, I'm on here pretty much 24/7. I'll read the article and if I decide that it doesn't meet inclusion standards or CSD, then I'll send it to AfD. Best, t'shaelchat 21:31, 3 July 2009 (UTC)
- Thanks. Spongefrog, (talk to me, or else) 21:32, 3 July 2009 (UTC)
Done Please see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Gem paul. -t'shaelchat 21:40, 3 July 2009 (UTC)

Just wondering
Do you want any advice on one of the barnstars you're working on?Abce2|Free LemonadeOnly 25 cents!(Sign here) 02:37, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
- Normally I only make them when the situation arises, or if I get a good idea for one, but if you know some stuff that I don't know (like how to make a template) that would help. Spongefrog, (talk to me, or else) 08:27, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
- Where are said barnstars? -t'shaélchat 08:28, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
Oh come on, theres about 20 links to it on my userpage. User:Spongefrog/Subpage/My Barnstars. Its at the very bottom so you might have missed it. There used to be more (eg. "the sea anemone barnstar") but I deleted them all. Spongefrog, (talk to me, or else) 08:31, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
- Ah, okay, yeah. I've seen those. I thought that you had some more stashed away somewhere. -t'shaélchat 08:32, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
- I think I might make some more now actually. I've got an idea. Spongefrog, (talk to me, or else) 08:33, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
- Hey I just got a Barnstar from SchnitzelMannGreek! I didn't even notice it. Spongefrog, (talk to me, or else) 08:37, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
Yes, I do! Spongefrog, (talk to me, or else) 20:41, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
I've dabbled in template making. Abce2|Free LemonadeOnly 25 cents!(Sign here) 20:56, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
That's nice. NOW TELL ME HOW TO DO IT!!!Sorry, I don't know what came over me there. Anyway, I can't find any WP pages telling me how to do it, and I know it's possible because T'Shael did it to a UBX. Spongefrog, (talk to me, or else) 21:01, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
What kind of template?Abce2|Free LemonadeOnly 25 cents!(Sign here) 21:05, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
- I thought there was only one kind. It's like the templates you have on WP:STAR that you copypaste. Perhaps "template" was the wrong word. Feel free not to re. right away, I need to sleep, so will probably respond tommorow. Spongefrog, (talk to me, or else) 21:08, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
You mean the boxes or the template pages? Abce2|Free LemonadeOnly 25 cents!(Sign here) 21:25, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
I think the template pages. I think. I'm not sure what I'm talking about, so I could be wrong. On post no.20 in this page, TShael did something like what I'm asking you about. Spongefrog, (talk to me, or else) 09:32, 7 July 2009 (UTC)
- Are you referring to when I created user:Spongefrog/Userbox? -t'shaélchat 10:02, 8 July 2009 (UTC)
Yes. Spongefrog, (talk to me, or else) 10:24, 8 July 2009 (UTC)
Re:
It is impressive, is it not? -t'shaélchat 09:04, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
Yes. I am jealous. Spongefrog, (talk to me, or else) 10:05, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
- I would tell you how to do it, but it is teh secretz. -t'shaélchat 10:06, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
- I understand. But I'll figure it out. I will! Spongefrog, (talk to me, or else) 10:10, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
- Haha, seriously though, if you'd like to know I have no problem letting you know. ;) -t'shaélchat 10:13, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
- I'd rather have the satisfaction of getting it myself. I'll ask you if I give up. I've got some ideas. Spongefrog, (talk to me, or else) 10:31, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
- Haha, seriously though, if you'd like to know I have no problem letting you know. ;) -t'shaélchat 10:13, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
- I understand. But I'll figure it out. I will! Spongefrog, (talk to me, or else) 10:10, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
- I've got it! There is a template somewhere with your userpage information on it. You added the template to your userpage. If that's not correct, then it's still a good idea. Spongefrog, (talk to me, or else) 13:04, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
- Come on, answer me. Spongefrog, (talk to me, or else) 19:49, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
- Exactly. My userpage is transcluded from other pages. Specifically {{user:T'Shael/header}} and {{user:T'Shael/body}}. -t'shaélchat 20:11, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
- Come on, answer me. Spongefrog, (talk to me, or else) 19:49, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
- I am an expert, don't you think. Given a few weeks, I bet I would have invented that myself, and think I was the first to invent it. I might steal your idea (judging by your edit summary, I'd say you stole it from J.Delanoy, but I could be wrong). Spongefrog, (talk to me, or else) 20:19, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
←No, J's is different. I just took the "To Vandals" notice from him. I forgot whose user page that I first saw that on. Pretty sure that it was Mentifisto (talk · contribs), though. -t'shaélchat 20:21, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
No barnstars for J Delanoy, then. Spongefrog, (talk to me, or else) 20:23, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
- Check out his user page. His is rather ingenious as well. t'shaélchat 20:34, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
- It's good, but I figured that one out. Now leave me alone, I want to make some useful contributions :-) Spongefrog, (talk to me, or else) 20:40, 6 July 2009 (UTC)

Hello...
Hi.. What exactly do you mean by collateral damage ? Rkr1991 (talk) 08:56, 7 July 2009 (UTC)
- It means if someone who happens to have the same IP as you is blocked, all other accounts with that IP are blocked too for 24 hours, to stop the vandal from creating new accounts etc. Happened to me once, but I got unblocked. Spongefrog, (talk to me, or else) 09:29, 7 July 2009 (UTC)
- Hmm...interesting, but still I don't think why my IP should be blocked after I sign in, cause that means its me, right... Rkr1991 (talk) 13:44, 7 July 2009 (UTC)
- O_o Are you the only person who uses your computer? Or is your internet connection wireless or something. I personally blame someone in my family who had my laptop, but my internet connection was insecure too. Maybe my neighbor, but I doubt that (Its when I got blocked I'm talking about). I don't know. Or perhaps (and this would be an extreme coincidence) someone got blocked, but then their IP changed and you got their old IP. Or maybe some admin just made a mistake. I don't know, blleeuuurrgh! Spongefrog, (talk to me, or else) 20:12, 7 July 2009 (UTC)
- I am the only one using this computer. Its my personal computer, and the internet connection is secured. Is it possible that two computers may have the same IP address ? If not, then how the hell was my account autoblocked ? Rkr1991 (talk) 03:51, 8 July 2009 (UTC)
- If your IP is blocked and autoblock is enabled, you will not be able to edit from your account. -t'shaélchat 03:56, 8 July 2009 (UTC)
- Two computers can have the same IP address if they are part of the same intranet network. For instance, if you have a wireless router, all computers that connect to the Internet through it share one IP. In your case, is it possible your connection (I assume it's broadband) was down for a moment and then reset by your ISP? They may have assigned you a new IP when you reconnected. If your connection isn't "always on" through a router, and you're jumping in and out of the network, your ISP may be assigning you a new IP every time. Sorry, that's a bit rambly, but it's complicated stuff and it's 12:10 AM my time. :) Vicenarian (T · C) 04:10, 8 July 2009 (UTC)

- I use a broadband connectio through a router, and I've never had any such problems, I'm afraid. I connect through Tata Indicom, and I'm pretty sure it's secured. Rkr1991 (talk) 09:49, 8 July 2009 (UTC)
←As far as I know IPs are computer/network specific and the only way for you and I, for instance, to have the same IP is if we are on the same network. A simple illustration of this principle: Computer A routes its internet through Computer C as does Computer X. Thusly, Computers A and X have the same IP address via their connection to the internet through Computer C. Is your IP dynamic or do you run a TOR? -t'shaélchat 09:55, 8 July 2009 (UTC)
- I'll stay out of this. Too complicated for me. Spongefrog, (talk to me, or else) 10:23, 8 July 2009 (UTC)
- I have no idea, all I know is just I have a Tata Indicom Broadband connection using a router on my personal computer. But thanks anyway for the help... Rkr1991 (talk) 13:59, 8 July 2009 (UTC)
More Problems
When I contact the two admins who helped me with the above problem (Closedmouth and Mufka) on their talkpage, I get no replies from either of them, like they are deliberately ignoring me. What do I do ? Rkr1991 (talk) 14:02, 8 July 2009 (UTC)
- No, they likely aren't ignoring you, they may just be busy. You are able to edit here, so the autoblock has been lifted. If you were still blocked, the only page you could edit would be your own talk page. You shouldn't encounter any further blocking problems. Vicenarian (T · C) 14:08, 8 July 2009 (UTC)
- No. I just wanted to thank them. Rkr1991 (talk) 14:19, 8 July 2009 (UTC)
- Probably busy, or in a different timezone. Admins have LOTS of work to do. :) Vicenarian (T · C) 14:23, 8 July 2009 (UTC)
- The thing is, they have replied to threads after mine, so why didn't they reply to my thread ? Rkr1991 (talk) 14:34, 8 July 2009 (UTC)
- Get out of my talk page, Vicenarian. He's asking me ;) Anyway, did you check their talk pages for answers. Spongefrog, (talk to me, or else) 15:46, 8 July 2009 (UTC)
- The thing is, they have replied to threads after mine, so why didn't they reply to my thread ? Rkr1991 (talk) 14:34, 8 July 2009 (UTC)
- Probably busy, or in a different timezone. Admins have LOTS of work to do. :) Vicenarian (T · C) 14:23, 8 July 2009 (UTC)
- No. I just wanted to thank them. Rkr1991 (talk) 14:19, 8 July 2009 (UTC)
- I see. maybe they can't think of anything to say, or they don't have time, or they don't feel they need to respond. Or perhaps they got new messages, from someone else, and went straight to the newest post, and didn't notice yours. Spongefrog, (talk to me, or else) 15:51, 8 July 2009 (UTC)
←Yup, I'm a terrible talk page stalker. Sorry, I can't help but try to be helpful! Vicenarian (T · C) 18:39, 8 July 2009 (UTC)
