Why'd he do that?

I was actually wondering why that guy removed so much from the Hottie's Hoodie page. Right as I was about to re-add it, you fixed it. Just figured I'd letcha know that that didn't go unnoticed. :) ShadowGlove 12:29, 6 July 2011 (PDT)

Good to know :) User Moussekateer signature sprite.pngMoussekateer·talk 12:30, 6 July 2011 (PDT)

RE: What we spoke about in IRC awhile ago.

You asked me to let a moderator know if this nonsense happened again, and it happened again. This and this done by Sven2. I had hopped onto the Wiki earlier today and checked out my watchlist to find those 2 bits of vandalism. I also noticed the message "AGNMI 4 LYFE!!!", so I googled "AGNMI" and found this group. Guess who's an admin in the group? You guessed it.. I also found the AGNMI forums and noticed a section of the forum dedicated to discussing the HL2 leak, which is what Sven mentioned a few times in his rants on the TF2 Alpha article's talk page.

Pilk's taken care of Sven2, and I did message him in the IRC earlier today and pointed out the above bit of information, and mentioned to him that you and I had spoken awhile ago about any more of these issues happening. 404 User Not Found 18:42, 6 July 2011 (PDT)

Thanks for bringing it to my attention. I will deal with the matter. User Moussekateer signature sprite.pngMoussekateer·talk 19:07, 6 July 2011 (PDT)
Believe me, so will I. As a footnote, I'd like to add that I don't appreciate being insulted and having my words reduced to that of a rant.Sven 23:25, 6 July 2011 (PDT)


You insult my Ass, sir?

Do you even know the things that my Ass has done? I must declare that he is the most noble Ass in all of Europe! It has helped write laws, it has put out fires, it has saved puppies and small children from trees, and many more acts of Gentlemannly nature! And yet, you insult my Ass' stories by saying it is "amusing". You are lucky that my Ass is a Gentlemann, because if it was MY choice, I would throw you in the brig for life for insulting my Ass! Good day, sir! Killicon splendid screen.pngTheTimesAndQueriesOfMyAss 18:20, 7 July 2011 (PDT)

Sir, I did not intend to tarnish the good name of your ass. Merely I was pointing out an observation. Good day. (Also please use show preview) User Moussekateer signature sprite.pngMoussekateer·talk 18:26, 7 July 2011 (PDT)

We got some counter-productive page labellin' goin' on here!

All them TFC Deathmatch map pages have been sittin' around, doin' just fine. Then, just like what happened with my article for Team Fortress 2 Alpha, we got people makin' a fuss over the map articles! Take a look here, boss!. K-Mac has already reverted his labelling once, and I've just reverted it again. It's purely counter-productive, and SiPlus' reasons for labelling them for deletion are:

  • "The maps were in pre-Steam version because TFC was a mod, and they could be loaded from console, but not from create server menu."
    • Ok, so that means they were in TFC.
  • "These maps are not custom maps, they are stupid hacks."
    • And now he's just lost all credibility with this comment.

Please feel free to give SiPlus a small "vacation", or whatever you feel to be necessary in this situation. 404 User Not Found 06:51, 13 July 2011 (PDT)

Detonator

Hello, I'm sorry to bother you, but I need an Admin's attention. The user MEDUNN has repeatedly added a trivia fact to the Detonator page. The trivia fact is about it's similiarity to the name given to the Demoman class in the bootleg game Gang Garrison 2, which is not proven to be related, and as I understand it, that means it is not trivia. Yet they continue to put it in, udoing my undo to remove it. I do not feel they are related by anything more than coincidence, and as such, is not trivia, as I have seen nothing to prove that the weapon was named after the class in Gang Garrison 2. If there is, I will back off and let it be added, but again, I haven't seen it, and as such don't feel it is trivia.

I hope I that I'm not being to hasty about this, but I rather go this route than make more enemies than I have to.

Thank you for your time.

DJNerd 18:54, 22 July 2011 (PDT)

I'll speak to him about it but in the future you should take these sort of disagreements to the article talk page instead of undoing one anothers edits. User Moussekateer signature sprite.pngMoussekateer·talk 19:18, 22 July 2011 (PDT)
I just left MEDUNN a message, stating that articles such as Bazaar Bargain don't have trivia about how "the model was used in Advanced Weaponiser for The Walkabout". The main reason, I believe, why we don't have trivia like this is because all that trivia already exists on the Advanced Weaponiser page, and it doesn't really belong on the actual weapons' article. Speaking of SourceMod plugins, Mousse, would you care to voice your opinion on this discussion I started last night? 404 User Not Found 19:23, 22 July 2011 (PDT)
Thank you both, I hope I didn't cause to much trouble, but I thought this was over my head. DJNerd 19:44, 22 July 2011 (PDT)

How am I doing?

I figured I'd ask you, since you're an admin or something. How does it look like I'm doing with editing the Wiki and stuff? Am I being useful? ShadowGlove 19:08, 1 August 2011 (PDT)

Yessum, keep up the good work sir :) It's much appreciated. User Moussekateer signature sprite.pngMoussekateer·talk 19:20, 1 August 2011 (PDT)
Cool. Thanks. :)

Unique Original

Just wanted to let you know that I was mistaken. I found a player equipped with a Unique Original and checked their backpack, where no Original was to be found. Turns out it was a server mod. Sorry about the mix-up. Link901 18:04, 5 August 2011 (PDT)

No problem, that's what I thought happened. User Moussekateer signature sprite.pngMoussekateer·talk 18:05, 5 August 2011 (PDT)


Article Revision Archives

Hey, how far back does The Official Team Fortress Wiki archive past article revisions? Like the past edits on my user page?

2560x1600at120hz 12:54, 25 August 2011 (PDT)2560x1600at120hz

We don't delete any revisions of pages so every revision since the page creation will always be there. (deleting revisions would be tricky and messy even if we wanted to) User Moussekateer signature sprite.pngMoussekateer·talk 12:57, 25 August 2011 (PDT)

Item drop reset

Since not even the edit is getting me a proper reply, I am going to take it here. Time and time again, I notice that the item drop resets at 4/5 pm, not near midnight. I am GMT +1/2. I have seen reports before that the item drop reset is not the same for everyone. I would love to actually link some threads, but the search function on SUF is being a complete and total <unhelpful function>. I admit, it was pretty stupid from me for removing the entire line instead of the just the midnight thing, but I would still like to see it gone, because it is erroneous. Or would you prefer I e-mail Robin first and hope that I get a reply on this? -- Killicon train.png Hefaistus - talk 13:58, 25 August 2011 (PDT)

Well this is an interesting one, because from what I have observed is that the drop cap resets for everyone at the same time. This made sense to me because I don't think Valve has separate item servers seeing as latency doesn't matter for backpack related stuff. But back to the point, I have confirmed it with American users and far east users and it seems to be the same time for us all. I have heard of a few players saying they start receiving drops at a later time but I put this down to bad connections or a flakey item server. I myself sometimes don't receive items for several hours on my idle accounts when the cap has reset. A reply from Robin would be brilliant to clear this up. User Moussekateer signature sprite.pngMoussekateer·talk 14:08, 25 August 2011 (PDT)
I shall send him an e-mail then, let us hope that he replies. I too would have thought none of it if I had suffered of this only once, but it has been consistent for me for months already, including the (relatively) recent double drop week, so that's why I am questioning it. Ah well, let us waste no more words on this. To the e-mail machine, ol' chap! ... Sorry, I won't do that again. -- Killicon train.png Hefaistus - talk 14:15, 25 August 2011 (PDT)

Listing price of hats on their respective pages

Hello, I am a new joiner to this wiki and I wanted to suggest adding a feature to the pages of all the hats. A pricing feature. Online, there are many pages that can be found where a collection of market prices on hats and miscellaneous items can be found. This could be a valuable feature to those playing on trade servers in Team Fortress 2. I would have implemented this myself, but I wanted to ask an administrator before a change like this is put into place. I hope you will consider my proposal. My name is Celestial Tactician. Celestial Tactician 13:58, 3 September 2011 (PDT)

Hey there. Welcome to the wiki :) your idea has suggested a few times before but the reason we don't implement this is because hat values are subjective and the wiki is here to document facts. Not to mention that if we were to include this information it would be easily abusable, as we could effectively set the value of hats and 'game' the trading market. Hope that helps. Also in future please make use of the show preview button as I get an email for every edit you do to my talk page :-( User Moussekateer signature sprite.pngMoussekateer·talk
Hello again, I don't mean to offensive in any way at all, but the fact that anyone can edit your pages means that the "facts" cannot be 100% validated anyway. Is it possible to arrange strict monitoring of these prices to ensure that no one changes the prices for their own purposes? After all, the prices of tf2 items, similarly to stocks, is based off of mass opinions and rumors such as how many people have sentimental value to the item or like the look of it. Not on hard facts. Celestial Tactician 14:16, 3 September 2011 (PDT)
While in the short term the wiki may have incorrect information, over the long term the fallacies will be removed by the community. Incorrect information is usually removed pretty quickly. I understand that items have perceived value in the trading community, that's all they are, perceived values. One mans trash is another's treasure. The wiki is not here to document trading values, other sites cover that pretty well. User Moussekateer signature sprite.pngMoussekateer·talk 14:52, 3 September 2011 (PDT)

Paint Theme Ressurection

Well, I was thinking about my very first wiki idea. I do really want to make a page for every single paint. This is useful and comfortable. I meet people everyday, who find\uncrate paints and want to color something.

But they can't just open a page for paint to see all hats available. They should open Class, find a hat they have, and a color. And then move to the next class. This is really uncomfortable + great downloading traffic. I won't ask any help and do everything by myself. Just accept my idea, and I will begin.

(My old, unfinished page: http://wiki.teamfortress.com/w/index.php?title=Dark_Salmon_Injustice&action=historysubmit&diff=362725&oldid=249546)

GordonFrohman 09:35, 5 September 2011 (PDT)

How about pages like these. I don't really see the use in a page of all one hundred or so hats in one colour on one page. I don't think that it is that useful, people paint their favourite hats not the ones that look best in a certain colour.
