==Congrats!==
Congrats on your launch, from all of us at the Independent Fallout Wiki. Let us know if we can help in any way. [[User:Kate Aces|Kate Aces]] ([[User talk:Kate Aces|talk]]) 16:36, 30 October 2023 (UTC)

== Affiliation request ==

This might be kind of an outdated concept, but I am a sysop of a wiki called fireemblemwiki.org, and I would like to affiliate our site with this wiki. Essentially, we would link to you on our affiliates page and interwiki link to you for Shin Megami Tensei stuff, and you would interwiki stuff to us for Fire Emblem stuff. Perhaps you could discuss this amongst the staff. [[User:Billy Mitchell|Billy Mitchell]] ([[User talk:Billy Mitchell|talk]]) 00:45, 1 November 2023 (UTC)
:Not an outdated concept at all! As you can see, we have your interwiki set up, and we did plan to use it for TMS coverage. I will get back to you soon. What is your username on FE Wiki?

== PDNn Images ==
Could I inquire as to why many of the images relating to PDNn were removed? [[User:Temmytoa|Temmytoa]] ([[User talk:Temmytoa|talk]]) 07:08, 1 November 2023 (UTC)
:Sorry, was going to mention it to you but had a lot to clean up. We don't want entire full page scans of novels and manga on the wiki unless they are being actively used. This presents a copyright concern because this constitutes potentially most of what the content of those books actually are; essentially the same reason we don't allow audio files unless they will be used and are under 30 seconds. I kept the ones that were acceptable beyond that, such as the full-color artwork and those that were in-use on pages.

::That all makes sense and I do understand, but I would have appreciated being given a bit more time to put some of them into use first [[User:Temmytoa|Temmytoa]] ([[User talk:Temmytoa|talk]]) 07:14, 1 November 2023 (UTC)
:::I understand. It was an urgent concern, but I will try to give more heads up about it in the future. Feel free to reupload them as you need them.

::::Alright. I will try to be more conservative in the future as well [[User:Temmytoa|Temmytoa]] ([[User talk:Temmytoa|talk]]) 07:18, 1 November 2023 (UTC)
:::::@[[User:Temmytoa|Temmytoa]] Oh, sorry two more things. The proper abbreviation for Detective Naoto is PDN, even for the novel. It and the manga share the code but link to different pages depending on the media type chosen in [[Template:Link]]. See [[Guidelines:Media Abbreviations]]. As well, for the same reason of copyright, I ask that you don't link to sites hosting the entirety of said material. Thank you.

::::::Okay, I was uncertain of what to do in that scenario, but I will go forward with this information. That last bit is also a good point, how should they be tagged instead? [[User:Temmytoa|Temmytoa]] ([[User talk:Temmytoa|talk]]) 07:43, 1 November 2023 (UTC)

:Apologies for taking so long to get back to you. I have gone through with this. Please notify me if you are able to regain access to your account so that I can unban it.

== discord account got hacked ==
Hey my discord account got hacked, I think I fell for a phishing email last night. I woke up a couple of minutes ago and can't log in so whoever has it changed the password. I made a new account but can't join back into the wiki server, it's giving me a "The user is banned from this guild" message. Not sure if that means my old account is already IP banned from the server or if my account's just too young or something, but if you or any other staff wanna message me there my new account is stego010. thx [[User:Ruinedstego|Ruinedstego]] ([[User talk:Ruinedstego|talk]]) 18:45, 15 December 2024 (UTC)

:Hi, I can help with this. Thank you for letting us know what happened. Your compromised account has now been banned from the Discord server. The reason why your new account was banned when joining is because our server automatically bans new Discord accounts as a security measure. However, we have now enabled your new account, so you should be able to join now. — [[User:RustyVanBurace|RustyVanBurace]] ([[User talk:RustyVanBurace|talk]]) 21:32, 15 December 2024 (UTC)

== Apology ==

I just wanted to avoid edit warring with him. I did edit war on a wiki once and I felt bad for it...though I still thought the admin was a bad one. But if he doesn't want to have fan discussions, I'll respect that. --[[User:Masterscatman|Masterscatman]] ([[User talk:Masterscatman|talk]]) 02:16, 20 March 2025 (UTC)

== Why do you like to permaban ip addresses? ==

They fuck over innocent people for no reason while the trolls can just reset their ip router to ban evade

Osama Bin Laden: /* I see quite a lot of permabanned IP addresses on the ban logs */ new section

{{Template:Welcome|realName=|name=Billy Mitchell}}

== I see quite a lot of permabanned IP addresses on the ban logs ==

An IP address is often shared among multiple people and if dynamic, it’s easy to get a new one by resetting your router. If static, you are banning multiple people just because of one bad apple, and if say you banned a school’s IP, you’d ban the entire school. If you want to ip ban people shouldn’t you at least leave a note saying where to contact if the user is erroneously banned?

There are also several banned IP ranges which increases the chances of innocent people getting fucked over. Shouldn’t these be lifted?
