Yes, I try my best to do it, but I sometimes forget to sign my name. Also, I do know how to sign my name. But thanks for your concern, keep it up and good things will happen in life! ;-D
Small white waterlilySorry not to come back sooner; I haven't had a chance to do any photography yet, so I thought that I'd leave a photo of one of the things that has appeared in that corner of the garden since I took the picture on my User page. As you see, a big (elemental) change has taken place. --Mel Etitis (Talk) 09:23, 3 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I did take the picture, yes — I'm glad that you like it. I'm afraid that photographs of my whole garden would take up a lot of space, and probably be deeply disapproved of here. I'll post some more if I can, but there are one or two others at User:Mel Etitis/Photos. --Mel Etitis (Talk) 10:43, 12 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Hey Penubag, it's me, George, better known as Crazy George. Your userboxes are awesome (and well set out! the same can't be said for mine.) You Ascii Art also looks amazing! How do you do that? I especially like the one of Link and also Mario. The Link drawing has so much detail and is huge! I had to zoom out to 40 or 50% just to see it well. Nintendo make awesome games but I can't say that I don't think the Wii's a gimmick and they make very weak consoles. If only I could play the games on a good console, which since only one exists, would be the PS3 ( even though I only have a PS2 at the moment because I can't afford a PS3, but the PS3's a lot better). I think I should go now before the Nintendo fanboys track my IP and who knows what will happen then. BYE! George09:26, 1 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for your message Crazy George!! If you want, give me a picture, and I will write into ACII font for you. Yes, I also know that it does take a long time to align all of the user boxes (but let me tell you, a lot longer to figure it out) My 2nd page of my user page will be updated. I will be adding an 'Interesting facts' section soon, and fix up the acii art section (can't figure out how to get the separators out). Also on the note of Nintendo, I think that the wii is REALLY fun and deserves a try. I know we're on different sides but let's just be friends :-). I grew up with Nintendo and have over 50 games so yeah. Talk to you later! BTW, who's watching?
In response to you question 'Who's watching', I know it's a bit late now but it just happened again. There was a big banner at the top of the page that said, "HE"S WATCHING!!!" and had a close up of some guy's face. Very weird. Anyway, got more homework. bye! George07:31, 10 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Hello crazy george. Long time no seem, eh? So you've got a lot of home work? I'll help you with any questionon your homework EXCLUDING reports, I hate reports! So nice to meet you again, and hope we can be friends still. =-D So you want me to make an ACII art for you or not?-- Penubag 03:44, 16 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
You can make ACII art of whatever you want. I don't really care, it all looks good. I don't have any ideas anyway. BTW, I like your sig. Good to talk to you too. Anyway, nothing to say really. Cya!

Did you tell me this because I forgot to sign one of my posts? Sorry if I forgot to sigh one post. BTW, I've been on wikipedia for a year. Talk to you later! =-] --Penubag 10:24, 13 April 2007 (UTC)penubag
Yeah, that was just a generic thing. Also, you seem to be signing them wrongly - you're typing 'penubag' after the four tildes - you don't need to. Just finish your sentence and type four tildes like this: Blah blah blah. Thanks. ~~~~ Then use the preview button to check your edit looks alright (capital letters, spelling, alignment with : and * etc.) then you can save it. And I know you've been on here a long time, but I thought the welcome might still be useful to you - it has some good quick links to policy and guidelines. —Vanderdecken∴ ∫ξφ10:31, 13 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
One of your userboxes says you're still in high school, though. Did you just get accepted or something? If so, congrats, and say hi to the RSS kids (or the ΡΣΣ scholars, as they style themselves) if you see them --Dynaflowbabble07:29, 9 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
No, I'm not going there yet, but in the near future I plan to go to UCLA. Thanks anyways. =-)I'll hopefully remember to say Hi to them. XD -- Penubag 08:25, 9 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Ireland flag
Hey there...just wanted to let you know that I reverted your edit to Ireland, since that's the article for the whole island and not just the Republic. There's been a lot of back-and-forth on adding flags to that page, so if flags are your thing, I'd suggest entering the discussion on the talk page. Dppowell04:15, 10 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, I didn't know that the flag of Ireland included the whole island. So yes, I agree with your revert. Thanks for informing me kindly. I may re-add the flag closer to the bottom of the article in a more insugnificant place. Thanks again. -- Penubag 04:19, 10 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I also noticed that your so-called "all-alphabet" sentence was missing a "v". I hope you don't mind if I added the word "very" in to the sentence :) †Sean gorter†12:15, 21 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry Sean but there was a 'V' and you missed it! The sentence: "The quick, brown fox jumps over the lazy dog." ;-D lol! thanks for trying to fix it anyways, and thanks for actually reading those InterestingF. I thought I typed them all up for nothing, but at least one person read it! =-D See 'ya around! -- Penubag 02:14, 22 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I read a fact in your interesting facts page and you said that pictures of Donald Duck were banned in libraries in some part of the world, and you don't know which part. I believe that it was in Finland that Donald Duck pictures were against the rules. Savie Kumara21:57, 13 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I would have but at the time I created it, I didn't know how. I'm too lazy so im just going to leave it the way it is. -- Penubag 23:29, 26 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the barnstar, it is really appreciated. Sorry this is belated, I just noticed it today. Bawolff

Something Awful
The phrasing of my message is an inside joke on a website called Something Awful. On their forums, common typos are automatically filtered to say "NOTE: I AM TOO STUPID TO SPELL [word] CORRECTLY."
Purely by chance, I was on recent changes and saw an edit to your userpage by an ip address - when I investigated I found the link to your ****** page. By the way, I love your "wikiballs" :P -- D4g0thur07:35, 1 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
So you found it through the recent changes. I cleared my cookies before I signed in and made that edit, so that's why there's an Ip address. LOL wikiballs... And you have my reward on your page! =-D-- Penubag 07:38, 1 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
It's easy to find if you know that there is one! Recheck my ****** again for some information!! Also copy the barnstar template to your page if you want.-- Penubag 00:59, 4 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Dear Penubag, thank you so much for the beautiful gift, and your even more beautiful words! :) I hardly believe myself worthy of the flattery, but I'll hold on to the joy you've gifted me and save the unneeded words. It is always nice to find someone who also realizes the value of kindness, and for that reason, you'll always be welcome at my Talk page; and I don't have to say, if you need my help, I'm just a click or two away ;) Again, thanks, sweetie! Love, Phaedriel - 05:10, 5 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
How can you be an athiest and still "love God more than anyone and anything!"? OotmcSignhereTalktome
Well I guess that I'm only half an athiest. I really find it hard to believe in Jesus and the bible but I still do believe in God. -- Penubag 06:52, 14 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
In my humble opinion stating both being an atheist and believing in God is contradictory and unreasonable. An atheist denies existence of any gods, hence you're a theist (or at least an agnostic). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.207.79.143 (talk) 17:38, 13 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, I reverted your changes, well-meaning though they were. I like to see all of my progress, which is why I like having the reminder that, at one time, I couldn't get my userboxes where I wanted them. Reminds me how far I have come. :) Take care. -EleosPrime10:41, 13 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Oh, that's okay, glad to be of service anyways!
Thanks
I'm glad you liked my page I worked a long time on it! I borrowed some ideas frome you though, like the good image section and that little scrolly thing for your user boxes.--04174402:25, 14 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
That's okay if you copied my user page! ;-) I'm actually flattered that you did! You may use any ideas you want from my page! And if you need help with anything, feel free to ask me.( I wished I coulda asked someone when I needed help)-- Penubag 07:06, 14 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I just noticed too that you have 2 "This user absolutly loves lightning and thunder!" userboxes on your front page (1 in personal, 1 in misc.). You really like them that much, huh? ;) --BrokenSphere22:00, 18 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Oh, didn't realize that I had 2 of them. Thanks for telling me :). Even though I really do like them, I'll eventually delete one if I get the chance to and if I find a good subsitute userbox.-- Penubag 21:42, 19 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Congratulations on finding my secret page! I started out with this one, and will make a harder one in the future, and have them get harder as I go on ("secret page 2", "secret page 3", etc.).

I found that ****** page by chance. I just read. I noticed you play your DS online...do you have a Wii? And do you use that online (if you have one)? And, this is embarrassing since I program quite a bit, but, how do you make your ASCII art? (Man, I feel dumb right about now.) Thanks! ---Signed By KoЯnfan71 (User Page—My Talk) 00:08, 20 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, I do have a Wii. I'm going into high school in August this year, so I guess I'll understand exactly what you mean soon enough. I actually don't have any pictures, but if you could tell me where to find one of the converters for future use (that works with Windows Vista), that would be great! Thanks! ---Signed By KoЯnfan71 (User Page—My Talk) 17:09, 20 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Nope, I didn't make any mistakes. Translators and stuff get confused when I use only hiragana. So a translator cannot read my Hiragana with ease, as it can read Kanji. I only used one set of Kanji when I was typing which was (日本語). Also, as another note, translators can only translate a given set of Katakana. You would only know what I was saying if you know Japanese. So were you able to understand it?-- Penubag 21:15, 1 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Yea I did.. I used a translator once.. or maybe twice..
Congrats on getting the wii i had it since like... months ago.. anyways buy mario strikers charged it's wifi. your friend code changes every season though. Uchiha2317:06, 6 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Comtradicting Userboxes
I need you to clrify something for me please: How can you love God more then anything and call yourself an atheist? Atheist DENY the existence of a God. The Bible says that you have to be for God or against God. There is no such thing as an in between, so I am having trouble understanding what that means. Could you explain?

"Donald Duck posters were once banned from libraries on a certain place on the World because he wasn't wearing any pants. (I forgot the name of the certain place.)"
Thanks for liking the trivia. You have a pretty nice collection already, too. I'll have to steal some back to my page :). I just love the ASCII art, especially the Wikipedia puzzle ball! You didn't make them, did you? All are simply fantastic! Happy editing! Reywas92Talk12:36, 8 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Sure, take as many of my facts as you want. I, like you, also compiled those during my life, and I will continue to update it whenever possible. About the ASCII art, I have made some before by hand, but as you can guess, take a long time. So the ASCII art you saw on that page was done with a program. Do you have a request? I can make an AsCII art for you of your face, if you want! -- Penubag 17:21, 8 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
That would be great! I can send you a picture sometime when I'm not so busy. A suggestion about the trivia lists: You can transclude my entire trivia page to yours so that when I add more information, it automatically is added to your list, too. If you'd like that, but don't know how, I can help. Cheers! Reywas92Talk22:35, 8 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Sure, send me any picture any time! I never thought of transcluding your page, which I have just done. See you 'round, thanks-- Penubag 01:22, 9 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Well, the blocking thing, huh. Quite easy to break. The "Golden Shield" just filters incoming IPs and search for certain "forbidden" words, such as "Maozedong", "Taiwan", "Human Rights", etc. One easy way to break this is using a website without a name (say, connect to IP 202.202.000.000, if this IP holds a server, you can connect to the "outside" for a while). The only drawback is that the Chinese government will find out this day or the other, so I programmed a program (...) that connects to multiple proxy IPs at the same time and downloads a website as multiple segments. When the software detects attempted interception, it will automatilly cut-off the IP that is being intercepted, and connects to another IP. Only thing is, I need to constantly get new proxy servers. But, luckily enough, I'm not that lazy. Using this method, I can also get onto VOA, BBC, and stuff like that. Cool eh?-- Vintei talk 12:56, 21 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
