Why did Tom left? If its personal life, that's fine, but still...

- Same here. I'm more fitting to be a rollback and later an admin. While I'm not on a daily basis when it comes to editing (at least, not until the latest GTA V update is released), I'm usually on here frequently unless work arrives for me.

Re-Request
Hey, i'm thinking of requesting patroller again in 1-3 weeks, i need to do it within a few weeks, otherwise there will be no room for an 8th patroller, and i can't afford to wait even longer for someone to get demoted or leave, i can be a bit impatient at sometimes, but the wait is on a much larger scale here, anyway, ill probably forget in more than 4 weeks, so i will do it the week after next or so, what do you think?

Image Policy
How exactly do I add it is a copyright image to the image itself. And I will no longer add modified images. My apologies. However I'm not completely understanding this case.
19:18, January 19, 2015 (UTC) I removed the image on second thought because it won't let me put in licensing. If an administrator deletes the image, it would be fine. The way I inserted the image won't allow me to put in licensing anymore. Once again, I am sorry for the little accident.

AK47
Yeah, i hate it because it's weaker in GTAV, and also, i hate the sound of it, it sounds so much faker than all the other guns, my favorite, (the Carbine Rifle) sounds cool, and causes more damage. I loved the AK47 in the other games, especially GTA IV :). (talk) 21:15, January 19, 2015 (UTC)
Yeh, the Advanced Rifle is too small for me unfortunatley! I like the MG as a heavy weapon, i dont like the Combat MG because it is rather slow and doesnt do as much damage. I love the SMG (MP5), as it is fast and powerful, but it sounds wierd also. I love the Tommy Gun (cant spell its name, but it was added in the Valetines Update), as it is fast and sounds awesome. I love the Homing launcher, but people think it follows its targets (which it doesnt), so its pretty useless for aircraft that are moving quite fast. But yeh, theres my gun opinions! XD (talk) 21:24, January 19, 2015 (UTC)
Activity
Hey Andre. This wiki works by how well staff perform here not what they can do. If staff want to be inactive, they shouldn't have rights. That's exactly why The Tom demoted Istalo. () 22:07, January 19, 2015 (UTC)Smashbro8
It's a complicated decision. In my opinion, the admins (excluding me and Leon Davis) don't deserve rights. They hardly ever show up, and they hardly ever even use their rights. In my opinion, they should either be demoted or moved to inactive. I think rights should be given to CJ Jr. for now. We may need more admins but I'd prefer having three active admins than 7 admins with only 3 showing up and helping the wiki improve. Our admins don't help the wiki run smoothly. It's Vault Boy's decision though. () 22:14, January 19, 2015 (UTC)Smashbro8

Rollback vs Undo
Don't take this as a lecture, because it's something I'm learning too... be careful in your choice of using rollback vs using undo. If you need to leave a reason and only need to roll back a single edit, keep using the Undo tool. I've fallen into that trap a couple of times already when I've clicked Rollback on reverts that the reason wasn't quite 100% obvious and had to quickly explain on users' talk pages rather than having a nice tidy edit summary reason given. Obviously Rollback makes things much easier when there have been multiple edits to clean up. smurfy (coms) 11:50, January 20, 2015 (UTC)
RE: Another Wiki
I'm familiar with Scarface and have the PS2 version (sadly, my PS2 console stopped working ever since). I even watched it on IFC before my local cable company decided to raise the prices and prevented me from watching it. As for my PC? If it can run Left 4 Dead like a charm, even Garry's Mod and New Vegas, I'm sure it can handle Scarface really well (much better than my previous laptop that couldn't run almost everything). I'll see if I can drop by there. ^^ 16:26, January 20, 2015 (UTC)
Your signature
Hey, could you check the coding on your signature? It seems that it's causing issues on RfP page by making the text small. It seems to be caused by a missing "</span>" tag in the colored link - or at least that's how it looks on the page when editing it.

Rename
I have renamed Stock Car Racing (GTA V). Messi1983 (talk) 13:25, January 24, 2015 (UTC)
Just a question
Being Brazilian what do you think of Neymar? Messi1983 (talk) 13:34, January 24, 2015 (UTC)
- He is my second favourite player after Messi. I think he is world class and will win the Ballon D'Or in a couple of years time. I always knew he would come to Barca :) Messi1983 (talk) 14:41, January 24, 2015 (UTC)
- Brazil have always been known as an attacking team who are suspect in defence. A good team both strong in defence and offence will always get the better of Brazil. That is why Germany white washed them 7-1. I was hoping Argentina would win the World Cup as England did not make it past the first round cause we are useless in big tournaments. Messi1983 (talk) 15:30, January 24, 2015 (UTC)
Pele is possibly the greatest player of all time and was apart of the 1970 Brazil team that won the World Cup. They believe that is the best national side of all time. Zico was a great player too. The best team I have ever seen was FC Barcelona between 2008 - 2011 or the early 90's AC Milan side. Messi1983 (talk) 15:45, January 24, 2015 (UTC)
- Ugh I hate Real Madrid with such a passion that I never name them as a great team which sadly they are. The 2000-2006 Real Madrid team were a good team indeed. Messi1983 (talk) 15:56, January 24, 2015 (UTC)
- The only former Real Madrid player I do not dislike was Zinedine Zidane. 16:23, January 24, 2015 (UTC)
Football?
I heard you and Messi talking about football. I myself watched it last year, especially the recent match of Germany and Brazil. I cringed from watching it, and the Netherlands even added insult to injury with a 3-0 to top it off. The other match I didn't like was the Bosnia-Nigeria match. I knew Bosnia had a chance to win or end with a tie, but instead, the ref here decided to send Bosnia home instead of Nigeria. A poor match with a poorer referee means Bosnia came back to square one. :/
(In an unrelated news, GTA Wiki needs more userboxes that weren't featured in my userpage). 17:49, January 24, 2015 (UTC)
- Pretty much took interest when I watched 2010 FIFA World Cup (even had Pro Evolution Soccer 2014 with me, though not as accurate as in FIFA). And yeah, they pretty much do. :P 17:55, January 24, 2015 (UTC)
- That's understandable. I only watch soccer for international matches, and nothing more. x3 18:02, January 24, 2015 (UTC)

Language
I've left a message on Gendaiwakawa's page about the language styles, so hopefully that should resolve any future disputes. SJWalker (talk) 21:50, January 24, 2015 (UTC)
Yeah, I saw it. I've been on the Wiki since July and I don't think I've seen him edit apart from RfPs and comments, and they were only since The Tom left. I can see Dan's point about meatpuppetry, as I don't think he was able to stay on the fence all the time when Sasquatch subjects came up. I'd say I have a fairly good rapport with most people on the Wiki but I wouldn't blindly agree with them if it would be detrimental to the Wiki. From what I saw, he and Sasquatch (to a lesser extent) seemed willing to gloss over the incident that led to their demotions in the first place. SJWalker (talk) 21:59, January 24, 2015 (UTC)
I think it was the right decision too. Someone running for a staff position shouldn't have to be told how to behave on a Wiki, it should be second nature. Having to remind him to be polite, respectful and mature made me think that he doesn't have the maturity to be a staff member again yet, hence why I voted neutral too. SJWalker (talk) 22:08, January 24, 2015 (UTC)
I agree. For me, with all the edits Wildbrick makes he's a patroller in all but name. I'm surprised he hasn't run for patroller to be honest, as he'd definitely get my vote. I've given up on Sasquatch too. Like Leo said, he needs to walk before he can run but his comments and conduct make me think he can't even walk yet. I'd feel safer with Wildbrick as a patroller than Sasquatch, as Wildbrick has never had to be warned about his conduct. SJWalker (talk) 22:21, January 24, 2015 (UTC)
I agree. Jeff's bureaucrat position is temporary and a couple of people have recommended Leo for the position when he gets more experience. So if/when he gets promoted, I reckon Sean will be promoted to admin, and I think both Wildbrick and Monk should run if/when the time comes, as they are both very good editors. I have much more faith in them than Sasquatch or AK. SJWalker (talk) 22:31, January 24, 2015 (UTC)
He shouldn't let that hold him back. Like you say, he has good intentions and he wants to help the Wiki. I still make mistakes with my grammar and spelling and I'd say my grammar is very good. Sasquatch and Boomer had good grammar but their attitudes (especially Boomer's) were very poor. Monk's grammar by his own admission is a weak point but he's willing to improve it and if he focuses on doing what he does well I can see him getting a recommendation in the future. SJWalker (talk) 22:50, January 24, 2015 (UTC)
I'd say so. Six months gives him plenty of time to fine tune his skills. SJWalker (talk) 22:58, January 24, 2015 (UTC)
RE: Boomer
Essa relação do Boomer e Sasquatch é meio estranha mesmo. É um lavando a mão do outro o tempo todo, não dá pra confiar na opinião de um quando se trata de uma situação envolvendo o outro. Pra mim o Sasquatch tinha mesmo é que esperar mais um tempo antes de se candidatar a qualquer coisa, por isso mantenho meu voto como Não. DLVIIIL Talk 22:13, January 24, 2015 (UTC)

That user who's just been blocked has the hallmarks of a possible Tammy or Nein sockpuppet, as they all vandalised the Wiki with a "Heil Hitler" edit. SJWalker (talk) 17:00, January 26, 2015 (UTC)
Most sockpuppets aren't very intelligent or original, hence why so many get caught. SJWalker (talk) 17:11, January 26, 2015 (UTC)

I don't think I'd like GTA 1 or 2. They look pretty wack to me but they are among the first few games that existed in that time period. I just hope this years' games are good too. Currently, I have to buy NBA 2K15, Far Cry 4 and the new COD, but I'm waiting on the new Halo, Tom Clancy's The Division and Battlefield Hardline right now. I have to check Amazon and see what other cool games are coming out this year. () 00:10, January 27, 2015 (UTC)Smashbro8
If you do plan on getting Saints Row, get Saints Row and Saints Row 2 first. Do not get Saints Row 3 or 4 right away because they aren't very similar to the other two games. () 01:40, January 27, 2015 (UTC)Smashbro8

Not annoyed, I just thought it was impolite you switched to Portugese in the middle of an English discussion. I have no problem with you guys using other languages in your own conversations.

Reasons.
Hey Andre hi. There are a few things I need to apologise: Firstly sorry I couldn't congratulate you on becoming a patroller quicker. Second my inactivity during these past few weeks Well the reason for my inactivity is that I got exams comic up and will be from mid to late march. Sorry about that. And don't go block my account or something. Lastly I edited few mistakes in your page. Well till the next time we meet. Take care Andre. --Shadow Polaris(Talk) 15:22, January 27, 2015 (UTC)
Nah I have a shitty pc and can't play one decent game due to my keyboard.
Scarface ah the game. So did you watch the movie Scarface. One of my favourites. Antonio Montana hahaha.
Yup a true masterpiece. Do you watch breaking bad? And what other movies do you like? For me The Godfather part 2 beats Scarface.
Well when you do start watching tv series keep breaking bad as one of your picks you will be impressed. As for Godfather hahaha I guess you liked Marlon Brandos version. But I liked the ruthlessness showed by Michael Corleone.

RE:
Okay sounds good enough. We just need videos for the Titan, Police Riot, Sheriff SUV and FIB Granger cause now I remembered, the Unmarked Cruiser already has a video on its page. () 19:11, January 29, 2015 (UTC)Smashbro8
Will do. I'd still suggest to add a video showing how to obtain the Titan itself, but you can also just place the Lazer's video on the Titan page and put "this video's technique also can be used to obtain the Titan". After that, It's just the Police Riot and Sheriff SUV/FIB Granger obtain videos. () 01:03, January 30, 2015 (UTC)Smashbro8
Well that's all we need. People still like to invade Fort Zancudo just to drive or use the Titan anyway. As you said, jus put it can't be stored and done. That way we'll only have the Police Riot, Sheriff SUV and FIB Granger to worry about. () 02:05, January 30, 2015 (UTC)Smashbro8
Actually, I only said the Riot, Sheriff SUV and FIB Granger because they are slightly difficult to obtain in single player. That's the only reason they need videos on their page. The FIB Granger spawns in the game at a random time on early Saturday mornings, but some players may not understand the game's time system, which could easily be shown in a video. () 02:15, January 30, 2015 (UTC)Smashbro8
Sounds good () 02:21, January 30, 2015 (UTC)Smashbro8
I won't lie, for a person who doesn't really get the time system in the game, that mission IS the easiest way to obtain the FIB Granger. You see, it takes a good player to obtain the Sheriff SUV, FIB Granger and Police Riot (along with the Titan, Prison Bus, Unmarked Cruiser, Police Transporter and Lazer, but those already have videos on their pages; excluding the Titan and Police Transporter) because GTA V's wanted level can make obtaining vehicles that only spawn during wanted levels very difficult to obtain. The Park Ranger would've been hard to obtain too if it didn't have a few spawn points. () 02:30, January 30, 2015 (UTC)Smashbro8
It's not a street but actually the Strawberry Station, and those vehicles only spawn from 1:00 AM to 4:00 AM randomly. It takes several visits to the station in order to find one of the four vehicles within the time given. You see, some players don't understand the time system (I believe they don't). The Police Bike doesn't need a video, as it occasionally spawns parked beside a Highway Patrol officer at the side of a highway. () 02:37, January 30, 2015 (UTC)Smashbro8

Ghost Dog
I agree, the page should exist. Ghost Dog would be as good a name as any I think. I can't ID the voice actor in the credits to know whether it has a specific name. I'm about to do the S&F intro so will see if there are any clues. smurfy (coms) 23:56, January 30, 2015 (UTC)
- Hmm, I was sure his barking was "fake" like a person making barking sounds. No voice actor obviously. smurfy (coms) 00:05, January 31, 2015 (UTC)
I second that, as the dog is quite significant in the game. Like Sean said, "Ghost Dog" is the only conceivable name for the page. I'm not surprised you couldn't find a voice actor though since the dog doesn't technically "speak", and only has a standard dog bark, like Chop. SJWalker (talk) 00:08, January 31, 2015 (UTC)
- I guess since the dog technically doesn't exist and is a figment of Franklin's imagination, that probably explains why he can understand it, as what goes on in the mind is often very different to real life. SJWalker (talk) 00:16, January 31, 2015 (UTC)
RE:
I hardly ever drive boats in the GTA series except during missions requiring to use them. It isn't too fun in the GTA series. It's slightly better in Saints Row 2, because there are more activities and fun things involving boats. () 17:07, January 31, 2015 (UTC)Smashbro8
I agree. That sounds like fun! GTA V does need more party life. It's surprising there's only one strip club in such a big map and no accessible nightclubs. () 17:20, January 31, 2015 (UTC)Smashbro8
No lie but I believe GTA six is gonna be awesome. I really can't wait until they release a trailer for it. Who knows what it could have? As long as we have more health, cheaper hospital bills, more fun activities like those from Vice City/VCS and San Andreas, and less difficult cops (though I can't guarantee that), GTA Six is gonna be awesome. I can't think of where else they'd place GTA six' setting other than Vice City. () 18:30, January 31, 2015 (UTC)Smashbro8
If Yusuf returns, the game would be hilarious. I'd love if we could play as Yusuf. But I think GTA six would be a success and yeah people do that. They will still say they like GTA V better like how I say I like San Andreas better than V. () 03:46, February 1, 2015 (UTC)Smashbro8

Ahh, right, i didn't really notice that you reverted it. It doesn't matter, i have checked the Kraken Sub interior now and it looks first person enough to me now XD. You may keep your reverts. :) (talk) 17:28, January 31, 2015 (UTC)
Oh right, sorry I am a little busy, so i am getting confused, but yeh, i don't really like boats in the series. I think they are too alike, they all perform the same way, and there is nothing special for them, like the police predator, its a police vehicle, so why doesnt it have something functional like a megaphone, or a wailer siren! The only 'boat' i like, which isnt really a boat, is the Submersible, because of it looking cool, and it actually has a lot of detail and realism put into it. I love the Dodo Seaplane (if you can class it as a 'boat'), as it is multi-purpose XD.. (talk) 17:36, January 31, 2015 (UTC)
Ye, fishing would be so cool, along the Lago Zancudo or Zancudo River, or the Cassidy Creek. Imaging chasing crooks in other boats in the police boat, telling them to pull over. What would be cool, would a Fire Boat, so we can use a water cannon, which fires much further than the fire truck's one.
What boats do you think should be added? (talk) 17:49, January 31, 2015 (UTC)
Yeah, the Reefer should be re-added, along with the Tug, i loved that in GTA IV. A canoe would be funny to use along the Cassidy Creek, and i hope the Aircraft Carrier in the Heists Update can be used! That would be cool, although, i very much doubt it will be controlable :( (talk) 17:54, January 31, 2015 (UTC)
Yes, we need a big boat, like the size of the twin-jets, like the Tug, which is kinda big too. I hate driving little things, as when you want to show off, you usually go for big. (talk) 18:04, January 31, 2015 (UTC)

RE: Tow Truck
Hmm, I see your point there. What I was planning to do was copy a brief part of the description, performance and the gallery, but like you say, that would still create a very large page. The reason I suggested it was because Monk proposed renaming the page. Of the two, I'd rename the smaller Tow Truck page since it's been known as "Towtruck" in three of the four games it appears in.
