'Coding'
Hi there! I noticed on several of your posts that you have some problems with 'coding'. Though it's not really as complex as actual coding, if you need help with anything, feel free to ask! Also, what platform do you play on? -

News Team
Howd you like to join the news team? If so, put yourself on the roster in the forum. -- 01:10, December 8, 2013 (UTC)


 * ...the roster is now at Usergroup:News Team... - 01:20, December 8, 2013 (UTC)


 * Thank you for this honour. Hyperborrean22 (talk) 19:11, December 11, 2013 (UTC)

Blog
I just wanted to let you know that I was quite annoyed by your suggestion in your blog that I "damned this place to hell". I simply said that it was no longer the place I enjoyed editing at, nor will it ever be again. I would find nothing more satisfying than being proven wrong. However, I have to be realistic. - 22:03, December 15, 2013 (UTC)

Whilst I realise your gone now I still want to say sorry if I offended you. I got caught up in my speech... I wright this with utter humility. Hyperborrean22 (talk) 10:30, January 3, 2014 (UTC)

Attention
On your userpage instead is spelled as instaed. Make sure your own userpage is in order before you go arounds aying "geez the editing mistakes you guys make"  23:12, December 16, 2013 (UTC)

Your userpage
Hey, is this what you wanted for your user page? If so, just copy and paste it, and of course replace the picture.

PSN
Im on PS3 you know -- 20:35, January 8, 2014 (UTC)
 * PS4? Ba, im too poor for that :P -- 17:16, January 11, 2014 (UTC)
 * I'll be sure to check PSN later. -- 15:48, January 12, 2014 (UTC)

Userpage
BTW you need to remove the construction category from your user page as they are not supposed to have any. -- 15:37, January 12, 2014 (UTC)
 * While that is true, Userpages are not to have templates on them that come with categories as well categories arent supposed to be on userpages. -- 15:48, January 12, 2014 (UTC)
 * The template is only to be used for articles, as noted by its description. 15:50, January 12, 2014 (UTC)
 * It doesnt really need reviewed as it is only supposed to be on articles. With the construction category on your page, it shows up on the construction category page in the list. -- 16:06, January 12, 2014 (UTC)
 * Go ahead and use this. I just created it. 16:07, January 12, 2014 (UTC)
 * No problem, anytime. :) 18:47, January 13, 2014 (UTC)

You
Hyper you have to pay attention to the news post before you create a new one. I already made a post about an upcoming patch and instead of notifying me to update it you created a new blog post about the patch being released. Even worse you've now created a new post over the patch notes when your post prior could have been updated, hell all of it could of been covered on my blog in the first place. It clogs the news feed and dissuades readers from reading other posts. -- 20:37, January 14, 2014 (UTC)

Im not offended though I am a bit irked. Its better (in my opinion atleast) to keep info in one place. Considering all three blogs were only a few days apart, merging was definitely not out of the question as well as renaming a blog. On top of that I did mention in my blog that I would write the date and patch notes in the blog upon release but since they are in two other blogs it confuses readers. And when i say it clogs up the feed I mean its full of numerous blogs over the same topic. Communication in the future is all I ask. -- 20:42, January 16, 2014 (UTC)

Re
If you mean the "My Favorite Wikis" section at the top of your profile next to your avatar pic then you have to manually add it by editing it. They are not put there automatically. 19:40, January 19, 2014 (UTC)


 * Let me refrase. It lets you manually add all Wikis you are apart of under that username. Since you are only on the BF and COD wiki under that wiki, only those appear. As for your favor, go ahead with it. You wont be able to change anything anyhow as the page is locked though you are still free to see the code.  19:48, January 20, 2014 (UTC)


 * Had i had a faster internet I wouldve checked this sooner. The Wiki you are trying to add is not apart of Wikia, hence you can not add it. -- 17:37, January 21, 2014 (UTC)

RE: HARM Idea
You really think this is a good idea? Anyways, while the basic idea was just thought up of after playing Ace Combat 5. I looked up the real missile and saw the way how the real HARM worked. So, can you think of any ways to balance this weapon? Is it for all fixed-wing aircraft or only fighters?

RE: Trusted User
Hi. About becoming a trusted user: All you have to do is ask a B'crat - that's PSK, PLR, or Austin. They'll decide if you deserve the promotion.

For a while I didn't know just to ask either- I didn't become a TU till I was at nearly 1000 edits. =P

19:11, January 21, 2014 (UTC)


 * Thats typically when we promote. -- 19:14, January 21, 2014 (UTC)


 * When you feel ready, just ask, as Awyman stated. The three of us, when possible, will evaluate you and determine if you are ready to earn it. It can even be offered to you by one of us (like when I was a TU, I was offered it), or if you're recommended by another user. :) 19:37, January 21, 2014 (UTC)

Battlelog problem.
Hi. If you can't sign out and it automatically signs you in each time: You can delete the cookies from your browser.


 * chrome
 * IE
 * Firefox

This will sign you out of BL, but it will also sign you out of all sites that are set to automatically log you in.

Your Forum
Ghost stated it for deletion. For future reference, Users are free to upload videos as long as they are not for vandalism purposes. It doesnt matter if they are uploaded to promote them but the users can not directly promote them by going around telling users. -- 19:52, January 21, 2014 (UTC)

As I told you Ghost stated it for deletion (as in fact you created a main space page not a forum) and there was no need to discuss it. And actually the BF4 videos have nothing to do with your forum anyway so I dont see how its "Insult to Injury". Every official video has always had a page if you didnt notice. -- 20:40, January 22, 2014 (UTC)

To create a new forum, go down and "start a new thread". Instead you keep creating them as main space. Im going through now and fixing it. -- 20:46, January 22, 2014 (UTC)

Re: Thanks
Um, for what? 04:12, January 23, 2014 (UTC)
 * For this, I assume. 11:56, January 23, 2014 (UTC)
 * Oh, sorry, I'm a bit absentminded here...
 * 15:37, January 23, 2014 (UTC)

Re:
I understand what happened, Austin explained it to me in Chat a few days ago.

The reason that it was put up for deletion is not because people don't want you to post, it's because you created the page as a wiki article, rather than a forum post. (Ghost was just doing his job)

Here's why it's generally unneccessary to make a forum about something like that: You thought someone was breaking the rules, and you wanted to find out if they were, right?

But forums are to ask for the help or opinion of all editors on this wiki. (Awyman's forum was asking others to edit video pages) If we are talking about rules, you don't need the opinion of various editors, you just need someone to explain the rules to you.

The proper way to handle this would just be to leave a short message on an administrator's talk page, telling them about your concern. That's all you need to do.

I know you're (relatively speaking) a new guy around here, so we don't expect you to already know everything. Just listen to us when we explain to you.

And you don't need to be so defensive. No one on this wiki is here to pick on you and tear you down. Administrators have to keep this place in good order, and since they have to enforce rules, they may come across as a bit harsh.

You may have not had the best experience with awyman, but he's not out with some grudge against you. We (the TUs and admins) just want newer users to learn correct conduct, become better editors, and enjoy being here. We don't want any tension, and we're not out to get you.

15:52, January 25, 2014 (UTC)


 * To create a new forum post, create a page and name it Forum:Example Forum Title, then at the top of the page write . This makes it an Active Thread, which is what your forum posts will be, until Archived.


 * The prefix of a page determines what type of page it is. User:ArrowTwoActual is a user page, Template:Maps/BF4 is a template page, Talk:SUAV is a talk page, Forum:BF4 Video Overhaul is a forum page.


 * Pages with no prefix are mainspace pages, such as Zavod 311, Battlefield: Bad Company 2, etc.


 * When posting a forum, keep the guidelines in mind. In Forum:Index, it says "Forums are to be about community matters only...". Basically, if you want the help or opinion of the community about editing. As I said, if it's a question about rules, just ask an admin.


 * 16:29, January 25, 2014 (UTC)


 * Glad you understand. But it's not so much "help vs. rules", it's more a question of if everyone needs to be involved, or if you just need a user to help you. For example, if you think certain pages should be deleted, you would create a forum topic.


 * But if you wanted to know how to do a specific action in editing, or how to create a signature, you would just ask an admin or myself.


 * 16:54, January 25, 2014 (UTC)


 * You wanted to know if the user in question was breaching the rules with his videos. Rules are objective, so there was no need for asking the community on the forum, in my opinion.
 * 19:43, January 25, 2014 (UTC)

RE:
Unless they became blocked they hold position for life. Also to create an "actual forum", at the bottom of the recent activity page, there are two little boxes. One says "Start a new thread". Type the title of your new forum in it and press go. You know if a page is a forum or not because it will say Forum: in front of the title. -- 16:32, January 25, 2014 (UTC)

I cant really say  19:49, January 25, 2014 (UTC)

Its not a missuse but i would rather keep it the same as the TU or Admin scheme where users hold it for life  19:56, January 25, 2014 (UTC)

About Your Question
You asked if you were "being surveyed". To answer, we are not watching your page like we're the secret police.

Allow me to explain. When anyone leaves a talk page message, it shows up in the recent activity. Many editors (including myself) are in the habit of looking into all edits in the Activity, to keep an eye out of vandalism and other such problems, to help other users with their questions, and to stay informed on anything happening on the wiki.

So when someone posts a talk message, it'll be read by more than one user. If the user reading it can answer the question, they will answer it, even if they are not the one asked. (like I am doing now)

Often someone has "jumped in" on my messages, and I don't have a problem with that, it's how Wiki works. It gets your questions and concerns answered faster, as whoever is available will answer.

Rest assured, we are not patrolling your page in particular, and you are not being treated differently than anyone else. 17:46, January 25, 2014 (UTC)


 * If both you and another user are online in Chat, then you can talk privately with them by clicking on their username. 19:46, January 25, 2014 (UTC)


 * No problem. Although, most chat conversations are public, so that everyone can weigh in on issues. Private chat is generally kept to a minimum, I believe, but is useful in some cases.

RE: A favour
Sure thing, what do you need? Is it about getting vehicles to show up in your infobox? 14:11, January 26, 2014 (UTC)
 * No problem. I just created a new infobox template and wrote code for a vehicles section.


 * To add appearances, just click on the template in Visual Edit, it will look like a green puzzle piece. There will be an "appearances" or "games" section to fill in. Just type between each game you type in. (To put each one on its own line) Make sense?

RE: Warning
Users can upload videos. That user was adding his custom videos to pages which is disallowed. -- 14:40, January 26, 2014 (UTC)

Re: Awkward Question
Err, no. I actually watch everybody and everything that goes on this Wiki, including all activity that occurs while I am offline. It is my duty as Bureaucrat of the BF Wiki. I was only trying to assist Arrow get his answer more quickly by responding for you. I apologize if that caused any inconvenience. 15:53, January 26, 2014 (UTC)
 * No problem, I hadn't seen Arrow's reply. 16:23, January 26, 2014 (UTC)

Ask PLR -- 16:23, January 26, 2014 (UTC)

Re:Chat
I wasn't here, sorry. Was it anything important? 20:21, January 26, 2014 (UTC)
 * Alright. By the way, i'm running for administrator, if you'd like to weigh in on that.
 * 18:11, January 27, 2014 (UTC)

Re:
It's supposed to be like that, to differentiate the two. So it's not a standardization issue. (By the way, the round ones are called parentheses, while the squared ones are called brackets) 19:29, January 27, 2014 (UTC)

Re: chrome
I made the firefox one myself, just for the heck of it. There isn't a chrome one yet, but I could make you one.

18:37, January 28, 2014 (UTC)


 * I really don't mind. But if you'd like to make it yourself, go to source code editing on Template:Userbox/Firefox, and copy the code to Template:Userbox/chrome. Then, change the colors, text, and image. You'll have to upload a chrome icon. You up for trying?


 * (You can't lock a page for yourself only. But I checked the history of User:Hyperborrean22, and the only ones to edit it are you, myself, and PLR. There's been no vandalism.)
 * 18:52, January 28, 2014 (UTC)


 * I'm confused, would you rather me make it or you? 19:04, January 28, 2014 (UTC)


 * If you don't want to code, I can get it done in just a few minutes.


 * Get on chat? 19:34, January 28, 2014 (UTC)

Re:
There isnt a way for me to let you view the blog source. Also while a grenade category is a good idea, there arent a whole lot of grenades to begin with. -- 20:37, January 29, 2014 (UTC)

Pistol Tweaks
DICE posted a new blog here about Pistol Tweaks. Since you made the Infantry blog, it makes sense to add the new info in it then making a new blog. When you add it in the blog, can you put it in the format that i had modified it to? If you could also edit it in source mode rather then visual mode that would be better as it creates a nightmare in source mode. -- 23:17, January 29, 2014 (UTC)

I'm still alive
I was just taking a 10 day holiday. 04:14, January 30, 2014 (UTC)

Re:
Thanks man! -- 18:33, January 31, 2014 (UTC)


 * Applying, join in, where? It's not formal like RfA... -- 18:56, January 31, 2014 (UTC)
 * A user must meet minimum requirements for TU, it must be discussed between admins/bureaucrats, and does not require an RfA. 19:01, January 31, 2014 (UTC)

Re: Trusted User
Acknowledged, I'll talk with the others some time later today, when we are all online. 19:04, January 31, 2014 (UTC)


 * Awyman and I concluded that you are not yet experienced enough for the position of Trusted User / Rollback. One reason included lack of quality edits. You may request TU again sometime in the future.
 * 20:52, January 31, 2014 (UTC)
 * Edits that are beneficial to the page being edited that include proper information, new/undiscovered information, good grammar and spelling, and just all-around good contributions. Usually, for these types of edits, you would not check the "Minor edit" box.
 * 15:17, February 1, 2014 (UTC)
 * I was giving you examples. Mind you that is not the only reason why we reached the conclusion of not promoting you yet.
 * 22:05, February 1, 2014 (UTC)

Possible assignment for you
Need somewhere to contribute information? Your mission, should you choose to accept it: all/most of the BF4 weapons need their infoboxes filled in, like it is on AK-12. The stat numbers can all be found on Symthic.

20:49, February 1, 2014 (UTC)


 * I'll see if I can find the dogtag on BL without mastering it, it should be possible. Thanks for helping out!
