[edit] 1..2...3....

Exactly how many users do we have here? Trace X 19:58, 30 August 2009 (UTC)

Looks like about 900... ChozoBoy [ADMIN] (Talk/Contribs) 20:08, 30 August 2009 (UTC)

Thank you for welcoming me, and giving me all of those useful links. I used to edit Wikipedia a lot, so they will probably help refresh my memory.

Is there anything I can do to contribute, Trilogy-wise? --Orohu 23:29, 30 August 2009 (UTC)

There is still plenty to contribute for Trilogy and subjects in all of the games. Go for what interrests you and anything you feel is lacking. If you've got any questions on anything more specific, please ask. There's so much that you can do that nothing jumps out at me, right now. User:Greenpickle has been doing pages for the first game's rooms, so you don't have to worry about that. If you want to try room articles for another game, that would be tough but helpful. Alternatively, you could also check over the room's he's done and add more info. (I've been considering adding all of the scans for every room, and other crazy things like that.) You pick the area you want to work on and the level of involvement you want to get into it. Happy editing, man. ChozoBoy [ADMIN] (Talk/Contribs) 00:49, 31 August 2009 (UTC)

Who was the first user of wikitroid? --DekutullaZM 21:13, September 24, 2009 (UTC) (If you know, of course. If you don't, that's fine too)

[edit] Tripper

I'd like to know why the article Tripper was deleted. It appears to be the last red link on the List of Creatures from Super Metroid. The name was correct, the information was correct, I simply do not see the purpose? Piratehunter{ADMIN} (TalkContribsLogs) 20:28, September 3, 2009 (UTC)

That's really weird... I don't recall deleting it and was about to make it this morning. Thanks for pointing that out! ChozoBoy [ADMIN] (Talk/Contribs) 22:05, September 3, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Vote!

Attention, All Users! Phase four of Boss Battle Royal[e] has finally begun, and the bosses are aching for your votes! Click here and place three tildes (~~~) next to the names of bosses you think would win in a fight! Squeemaster 04:50, September 12, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] A few questions?

When was the last time someone edited the front page? That Brawl article has been there for quite awhile. Shouldn't there be something different by now? The Exterminator 13:25, September 20, 2009 (UTC)

You're going to have to ask User:FastLizard4 about that. He runs that type of thing. ChozoBoy [ADMIN] (Talk/Contribs) 17:55, September 20, 2009 (UTC)

How do you that code thingy for pictures. My computer messes up on the other method and I nearly lost all of my userpage! The code seems so much easier...and safer. The Exterminator 01:22, October 8, 2009 (UTC)

Which code, exactly? You can look at how pictures were added in any of the articles and copy the format. You'll learn a lot that way, and it is more practical. ChozoBoy [ADMIN] (Talk/Contribs)

Hey, don't mean to be rude, but I asked you a question on my talk page and I don't feel like repeating it. Again, no offense. The Exterminator 22:14, October 10, 2009 (UTC)

I'd like to change my avatar thingy and I was wondering if you could use pictures already on wikitroid. I know its a silly question, but I'm new to this computer stuff. The Exterminator 23:22, October 13, 2009 (UTC)

Hmmm.. don't see any way to do that. I'm going to have to talk to FL about getting some new images up for avatars. Just save the image you want and upload it. ChozoBoy [ADMIN] (Talk/Contribs) 00:21, October 14, 2009 (UTC)

On my home page, it says that admins can change some message on the sidebar to tell people about stuff that's happening. If you know how, could you put my newest page on there, User:The Exterminator/Main Page Updates? I'd like to get people on there to change the main page. Thanks! The Exterminator 00:12, November 26, 2009 (UTC)

You're going to want to talk to FastLizard4. ChozoBoy [ADMIN] (Talk/Contribs) 00:30, November 26, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Kelbaugh article

I don't think we need another article about the name in-game. I mean its pretty obvious that they are the same person, and the marine article would be too short. What other information can be added? Why not just have the mention in the Trivia? HellKaiserryo12[ADMIN] (TalkContribs) 15:04, September 21, 2009 (UTC)

One issue would be that we couldn't put that article in the "Character" category, and I'd like to see all of the named characters end up there. There are some other things that could go into such an article, such as images and maybe even the room locations for those characters (if someone were able to identify in conjuntion with the video). It may turn out that those Marines are actually represented (unnamed) in-game. ChozoBoy [ADMIN] (Talk/Contribs) 06:10, September 22, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] If your ever in the mood to help....

.....Please stop by miniclip wiki thx!--Drudge Killer XD....?  ;) 19:42, September 24, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] About that Metroid picture

Recently on my user Page, I noticed that the picture of a Metroid that I had up was different. Previously it was against a black background, now it’s against a white background and its membrane is greener. When I asked about what had happened, Hellkaiserryo told me that it was because you had switched the file, which why it changed all over the place. I noticed a revert button which could allow it to be restored. Do I have your permission to de-switch the file, since I do not the new version at all, as it looks really bright and unsightly with the white background.Tuckerscreator 20:57, September 29, 2009 (UTC)

Ah... Sorry. I switched it out because the second one was much higher quality, and didn't think to look if it was used on anyone's userpage. If you want, nobody would have an issue with you uploading the file to a new name. I only meant to get the HQ version on the articles. ChozoBoy [ADMIN] (Talk/Contribs) 21:28, September 29, 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for telling me. So how do I re-upload the file?--Tuckerscreator 14:19, September 30, 2009 (UTC)

Go to the file that was changed and look at the previous version. Save it to your desktop or somewhere and then upload it to Wikitroid under a different file name. But don't call it TC's Metroid or anything like that, other people may want to use the image as well. HellKaiserryo12[ADMIN] (TalkContribs) 15:17, September 30, 2009 (UTC)

Oh dear. I don't think I can do that, as I actually can't acess Wikitroid from my own computer; I have to use a friend's, and I'm not sure if he'll be okay with me downloading images onto his desktop.--Tuckerscreator 19:58, September 30, 2009 (UTC)

Oh, okay, I'll do it for you. No worries. HellKaiserryo12[ADMIN] (TalkContribs) 21:31, September 30, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] How often...

How often do you work on the website? Like during all your free time when your not studying or doing school work? Oh, and thanks for sending me all those links for begginers when I first signed up! (SA-X96) (SA-X96 01:23, October 1, 2009 (UTC))

Depends on how much free time I get a hold of! I rarely go more than a day without at least checking in, though. ChozoBoy [ADMIN] (Talk/Contribs) 14:27, October 1, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Favorite bosses

Hey guys as the very first thing I want to do here, I would like to ask everyone what their favourite boss battles are. Mine has always been Gandrayda (trust me this fight is really fun) so what are all yours? Phazon master 07:29, October 4, 2009 (UTC)

Mine are (in no order):
    • Dark Samus 2 (Echoes)
    • Gandrayda (Corruption)
    • Dark Samus (Corruption)
    • Ridley (Zero Mission)
    • SA-X (fusion)
    • Chykka (Echoes)
    • Omega Pirate (Prime)
    • Meta Ridley (Prime)
HellKaiserryo12[ADMIN] (TalkContribs) 14:08, October 4, 2009 (UTC)

I... couldn't choose. I've always had a lot of fun with Meta-Ridley and Corruption's controls make everything fun, too. All of Fusion's were incredibly hard. So were Boost Ball Guardian and Omega Pirate on Hard. I had trouble figuring out how to damage the last DS's for in Echoes, and kept running out of time for several tries. ChozoBoy [ADMIN] (Talk/Contribs) 14:42, October 4, 2009 (UTC)

I can't really chose a favorite but one of my favorites is the Chyyka.General Q-Nek 02:04, October 8, 2009 (UTC)

I'd have to say the:

    • Zero mission Kraid
    • Mecha ridley
    • Berserker Lord
    • Milky Way Galaxy (just kidding!)
    • Metroid Queen
    • That one queen fish thing in super metroid...whatshername...
    • Crocomire
    • Quadraxis
    • BOX

This isn't in order, by the way. --DekutullaZM 20:13, November 16, 2009 (UTC)(admin[NOT])

My favorites (in order) are...

  • Mother Brain (super metroid)
  • Metroid Prime
  • Crocomire
  • BOX in both forms
  • Ridley in all games

SA-X96 02:31, December 10, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Really?

Do you really take the time to greet everybody with that link thing or do you like paste it,im just wandering,i hope this is not of any insult.General Q-Nek 02:43, October 8, 2009 (UTC)

There's a short line of code that I copy off of my Archive 1 page, and when I paste it, it writes all of the text for me. I could greet nearly 30 people per minute depending on how fast the computer I'm using is. ChozoBoy [ADMIN] (Talk/Contribs) 12:03, October 8, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] A special request

Hey, I'm having trouble getting a picture on my userpage. If you can, can you put this on? File:Phazon Charge Up.jpg Well, search it first. The Exterminator 23:36, October 8, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Landing Sites

Sorry that I didn't finish off the categories, I got kicked off the computer at the last minute. By the by, I remembered that the Landing Site for the Pirate Seed's Leviathan is called Landing Site Delta. Seems to have been named by the Pirates, as the other Landing Sites on their planet follow the Greek alphabet. HellKaiserryo12[ADMIN] (TalkContribs) 20:06, October 12, 2009 (UTC)

Nice find! Just noticed that the Seed and Phaaze ones aren't here. I just found the ones I got through memory and keyword searches, so I may have missed some in MP3C. ChozoBoy [ADMIN] (Talk/Contribs) 20:10, October 12, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] How the blazes do you get those crystal clear images?!

I've tried hundreds of times to get a good snapshot of the Ice Missile to replace the other one, but the picture is either to bright or the missile is blurred. I am using my camera, but you obviously do something else. Tell me PLEASE! The Exterminator 00:38, October 19, 2009 (UTC)

Are you asking me how to get screens from a game? I don't really do that. Ideally, you'd want some kind of capture device. If I really want something from a game, I normally do a screen capture from an online video. Your best bet is to talk to User:Greenpickle or someone who works with that type of thing.ChozoBoy [ADMIN] (Talk/Contribs) 02:20, October 19, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] It says it right in the article

'The Pirate Homeworld is referred to as "Planet Urtraghus" (惑星ウルトラガス) in the Japanese version of the game [1][2], although this particular name is not found anywhere in the English versions.' HalfShadow 04:18, October 19, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Hi

i know i have not edited nothing here, but is because I work in the Spanish version of Wikitroid.--PhazonAdictKraid 22:46, October 31, 2009 (UTC)PhazonAdictKraid

Metroidover looks like its been growing lately! Do you have the Spanish MP3:C by any chance? ChozoBoy [ADMIN] (Talk/Contribs) 03:25, November 1, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] First Impression

Completely off topic...of everything? I've noticed that people have different relations with different admins. One person, for example, asked hellkaiserryo12 for help because (PROBABLY) he was the only admin he knew. I, on the other hand, think of mariogalaxy as a leader (though he isn't...right?) and, because of a traumatic experience involving ban threats and a gallery in construction, worry whenever posting on a page frequented by Fastlizard4. What do you think your first impressions were? --DekutullaZM 20:26, November 16, 2009 (UTC) (why won't paint images upload onto wikitroid?)

Wikitroid only accepts certain file types. You can see the list on the upload page. I'd reccomend saving things in the correct file type first so that there is no quality loss. Using high quality is expecially important for anything going in an article.
Well, I nominated HK12 for admin because he's a great and active editor. FL4 nominated me, and he's the most knowledgable on Wikia policies and the technical aspects. I often forget about MG because he doesn't edit often (probably working on other wikis, I know he's an admin at more). Armantula is another that was active up until I became an admin, but doesn't seem to be around too often these days. ChozoBoy [ADMIN] (Talk/Contribs) 21:18, November 16, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] How do you welcome people?

I would like to know how to make that welcome message. I saw a new user today and I was going to welcome him, but I didn't know how. So, Could you please tell me how? DekutullaZM 18:29, November 22, 2009 (UTC)

Put this on their talk page:

{{Talkheader}}

==Welcome to Wikitroid!==

{{subst:W|~~~~}}

The Exterminator 18:32, November 22, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Vote!

Attention, All Users! Time to finish Phase Four on Boss Battle Royal[e]. Click here and place three tildes (~~~) next to the names of bosses you think would win in a fight! Squeemaster 07:52, November 25, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] RE:Talkheaders

Sorry I thought that all talk pages were supposed to have talkheaders. I won't do it again. -_- DekutullaZM 01:17, November 28, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] RE:New Room Articles

Thanks for the tips! Never knew about the Greenpickle's templates, I'll try to use those from now on (if I can understand them :). As for amount of enemies, I'm doing this from memory and a completed file of Metroid Prime 2, so I am going to have only the general information. I might go back again with a new file to update everything, but that's still a ways off. Well, I'm done blabbering. Happy editing, man! (yes, I stole your slogan, don't hold it against me!) The Exterminator 02:56, November 28, 2009 (UTC)

Well ChozoBoy stole it from the Welcome template. So you don't have to worry. The MarioGalaxy2433g5 {talk/contribs/Logs} 03:54, November 28, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] You know what, never mind

I was going to ask you what in the world happened in that SSBB match that you've pictured, but you know what? I'll use my time doing something constructive. I'll just never know why Samus looks like...well, like I said, never mind. --DekutullaZM 16:43, November 29, 2009 (UTC)

I found that online. When you knock a character off of the top of the screen, sometimes they hit the screen in the foreground and things like that happen really fast.
You can ask! It's not a problem. :) ChozoBoy [ADMIN] (Talk/Contribs) 22:35, November 29, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Other sites, Other M, other things..."

There's various sites like this one and this is the most complete on info for those who knows nothing and much about the best video game series ever created. ChozoBoy, you have my support for any info I can help to find for the site. I',m a big fan of the series and there's many question to be answered. I hope that Other M will answer many questions about Metroid Fusion, like: How did the Federation capture Ridley and how did he revive so many times in the series? I think he's the Space Pirates' chosen one like Samus is for the Chozo. I'm subscribed on other sites and I created Groups for Metroid Gamers and people whjo wants to know what is Metroid really. Many people think that Metroid is the "man" with the "space suit". My mission is to tell everybody who is this "man", what is a Metroid and prove them that this is one of the most contributory video game project of video game's history. Can we publish this site on other sites? MonchoPR 01:55, November 30, 2009 (UTC)

Thanks, man. Certainly! We appreciate any help. ChozoBoy [ADMIN] (Talk/Contribs) 01:09, December 2, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Vandal

I have just seen a vandal on the UAM 1 (Metroid Fusion) page. The whole text was replaced with "This is the best suit suit in Metroid Fusion. I like to call it the Hero Suit." I have since reverted the edit. I don't know, I just wanted to report it. Maybe it was a good thing (to report it). Maybe it was a waste of time. Oh well. --RoyboyX 21:34, December 2, 2009 (UTC)

Thanks. We'd catch it eventually, because all edits are patrolled by the admins. You just sped up his/her banning. :) ChozoBoy [ADMIN] (Talk/Contribs) 21:43, December 2, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Arch(r)ival

How do you archive stuff? And are there any pages (that aren't rooms) that I can help creating? Finally, just to fulfill the dumb joke in the subject, whose your arch rival?--DekutullaZM 19:40, December 4, 2009 (UTC)

See: Help:Archiving_a_talk_page.
There are plenty of things to do or pages to create. You could find stuff nearly anywhere in any game/source material, but I think the least covered would be Echoes, Hunters, and Corruption.
I don't really have time for archrivals, though I think User:Dazuro has called me that in the past. I'm going to have to say that I don't have any archrivals, because I do not feed the trolls. ChozoBoy [ADMIN] (Talk/Contribs) 20:12, December 4, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Sorry ChozoBoy!

Sorry for uploading a picture without licensing. I'm new to Wikitroid and don't really know the ropes! I will try not to do it again! CHICKENWINNER 10:44, December 9, 2009 (UTC)CHICKENWINNER

You should be Chris. I got banned for making supposedly INDISCRETE COMMENTS. TantrumDog 02:55, December 10, 2009 (UTC) TantrumDog

[edit] Recent Edits

Hi there. What I'm about to say may come across as rude, so I'm going to try to be kind. I've noticed recently that while you are doing your rounds as usual, you don't appear to be helping as much as you should. I've frequently had to mark edits as patrolled that should have been done when you edited the page after the unpatrolled edit. For example, take the Zero Suit page just now. You know that all game names should be in italics, yet you did not add them to the captions in the gallery after DekutullaZM made the edit. You also did not patrol the edit. I don't know if you have a good explanation for this, (if so I apologise) but frankly it just seems like laziness. I am not trying to offend you, but I am concerned. HellKaiserryo12[ADMIN] (TalkContribs) 17:17, December 12, 2009 (UTC)

(Sorry about that...--DekutullaZM 19:52, December 12, 2009 (UTC))

Sorry HK, but I put up a notice on the top of my main page saying that I wasn't going to have the opportunity to be active for a bit. Finals and a research paper are taking a lot of my time. I will be reviewing all of the edits made since I became inactive beginning Wed or Thursday after I complete and have critiqued my GD final pieces. ChozoBoy [ADMIN] (Talk/Contribs) 21:45, December 12, 2009 (UTC)
That's okay then. Sorry for any irritation I may have caused. HellKaiserryo12[ADMIN] (TalkContribs) 21:50, December 12, 2009 (UTC)

Its no problem, man. ChozoBoy [ADMIN] (Talk/Contribs) 03:58, December 13, 2009 (UTC)
