Advice

Hey, Dan! This guy, Jason555, changed Franklin's nationality to Canadian and changed some info on Trevor's page. In the same time, he has good edits. I told him to use the sandbox if he wants to do coding tests, but I consider he should get an 1-day block as a warning. What do you think?Dodo8 Talk 09:34, April 6, 2014 (UTC)

Hi Messi,

I'm a new member to the GTA Wiki site and I was wanting to make edits to a page but I decided to message you so that you guys are aware of the information and can verify it further, if you choose too.

I have made a website at http://warrenwoodhouse.webs.com/gtav/telephonedirectory which you can view.

It, so far, has all the numbers that I have found while playing on Single Player mode and while viewing videos on YouTube. I put my list together and I discovered that your site's GTA V Phone Numbers list doesn't have all the numbers either but I have a few extra contacts in my list with the actual numbers that you're looking for.

If you want to make updates to your Phone Numbers page on Grand Theft Auto V page on your GTA Wiki, please can you add a reference link back to my site so that others can check it out in the future as well?

Thanks for taking your time to read this message.

If you want, you can also check out my videos at http://youtube.com/warrenwoodhouse and my photos at http://google.com/+warrenwoodhouse/photos

I'm proud to british too. :D

Your Fan & New User,

Warren Woodhouse

I noticed an error on the page for the Pegassi Monroe (http://gta.wikia.com/Monroe). The page states the car is heavily inspired by the Lamborghini Miura then says the Monroe is powered by a V6 which is not true the Lamborghini Miura was powered by a V12. I have done some research on the subject and have found a picture of the Miura's engine compartment and compared it with a picture taken of the Monroe's engine from GTA5 and they look identical. Both pictures have been included in this page to the right if you wish to compare them for yourself.

Monroe,Pegassi,GTAV

 If you should wish to examine the page I have taken the Miura's specifications from the link is: (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lamborghini_Miura)

I am only pointing this error out in an attempt to be of assistance in correcting it. Hope it helps. Thanks for your time.

Hate to do this, but

Sasquatch101 wants to be unblocked and I just kind of told everyone involved it needed to be a bureaucrat's discussion. It's happening on Tom's Community Central message wall [1]

You should've stepped down when I did bro, for serious. Jeff (talkยทstalk) 19:42, May 20, 2014 (UTC)

/* Blocked from Bully Wiki /*

Hi there Dan,

My name is Coastercam7788 aka Jakob. I've been on Wikia for a little while now, but I'm still kind of new to it. But here's the story:

Back in about either October, I got a message on my talk page from McJeff saying to use the quote template on Bully Wiki instead of easily typing in the quote. A little while later, he told me again to use it and if I didn't use it, he will block me. I messed up.

The following month, I sent a message to McJeff and apologized for making bad edits, and he told me about if you could mentor me back into Bully Wiki, but he doesn't think that you are required to do that. Then this other guy told me to leave him alone. So I did. If you can help me, I'll be glad, and I promise I'll make good edits on Bully Wiki so I'll make Jeff proud!

It was a pleasure to meet you.

Sincerely,

Jakob

Hi :) I saw the Ursula page of GTA V, and it never mentions Michael and in the trivia it says that you cannot meet her as Michael. However, in my game (I was playing as Michael) she appeared on my mobile and her location was in the map and when I meet her she told me to take her home, I remember one of the stuff she said was I'm so happy we're boyfriend and girlfriend now and Michael always keeps saying stuff like yea, great and short words to kinda stop her from talking. When I took her to her house, she told me to follow her inside and they had sex and I remember she shouted "Daddy!" and Michael said something like "I still got it." So I think it should be removed that she never interects with Michael as in fact she does. :)

The Fastest Bike

Hello and firstly I want to say that there are two thing that I want to discuss with you 1.The car penumbra featuring in gta 5 has been classified as a sport car in the classification table found at the bottom which in fact is not a sport car unless upgraded and is listed as a coupe in game and even the description in the wikia says so. 2.Recently I saw a video of a youtuber who compares the characteristic of various vehicles within the class and I saw a video of him comparing the Dinka Thrust with the Shitzu Hakuchou as the Last Team Standing dlc had been out and while watching the video we can see that the thrust is actually faster than the hakuchou but the acceleration of the thrust is too less to notice and in another video when he compares both the bati 801 and hakuchou the hakuchou is comparatively faster thus making the thrus the fastes bike in the whole game albeit really hard to notice the link for the hakuchou vs thrust is given below https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h9JZ8nIA9mU and the link for hakuchou vs bati 801 is given below https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gcwltZntUPA

RFP

Hey, I've made an RFP, can you please swing by and vote. smurfy (coms) 23:54, January 4, 2015 (UTC)

Resign

Hi Dan, I am Rain, one of the patrollers here. As I am leaving the wiki I would like to resign my rights. Could you remove them when you've got time? Thanks. Monolith Patch Rain - Talk SCS Freedom 11:27, January 7, 2015 (UTC)

Staff

Hi Dan, I just wanted to say that the Staff page needs to be update, as well as Smurfynz and DocVinewood's signature colors. AndreEagle17 (talk) 14:31, January 7, 2015 (UTC)

Hmm he seems inactive, but Tom should know about that.

Also, I want to send a patroller request, is it too early to send it right now? AndreEagle17 (talk) 14:40, January 7, 2015 (UTC)

Done, if you'd like to vote :) AndreEagle17 (talk) 15:21, January 7, 2015 (UTC)

Patroller Probation

Can you vote on this? Leo68 (talk) 02:53, January 9, 2015 (UTC)

RfP

I've decided to apply for admin rights as Tom applies for bureaucrat rights. Can you drop by and vote? Leo68 (talk) 21:48, January 17, 2015 (UTC)

Hectic

Hey, I don't know if you're aware yet but Ilan and Tom are gone. I have been voted as the new Bureaucrat alongside you but I'm going to need you to promote me. LS11sVaultBoy (Talk) 21:59, January 18, 2015 (UTC)

Thanks. I'm fine, the only thing that bothers me is user's names not appearing a different colour when I change it for AGES. LS11sVaultBoy (Talk) 16:01, January 21, 2015 (UTC)

Email

Sent you one. It's got nothing to do with wikis in general, just we haven't hardly talked in almost a year and if you're around a bit again I thought I'd say what's up properly. Jeff (talkยทstalk) 05:46, January 23, 2015 (UTC)

Eavesdropping, re:age

Yeah, you are nowhere near the old man of the wiki at 31. Leo's beats me by a year. We both have offspring older than most of the other regulars and staff. So if we sound like we're lecturing or worse, start telling "dad jokes", you know why.  smurfy (coms) 09:30, January 23, 2015 (UTC)

RE:

Yep, November 11, 1968. You're never too old for GTA whether you're seventeen or seventy. Leo68 (talk) 15:20, January 23, 2015 (UTC)

Demotion

I think JBanton and Dodo should retain Patroller rights not to drive them away, but move them to inactive. Leo68 (talk) 15:26, January 23, 2015 (UTC)

Hmmm, maybe we have different ideas about demotion? Demote a Bureaucrat, they go to Admin; Demote an Admin they go to Patroller, Demote a Patroller, they go to User. I thought the vote was to move JBanton and Dodo down a level to patroller rights (and possibly set to inactive). smurfy (coms) 20:16, January 23, 2015 (UTC). 
Dan, as mentioned above, Leo and I were both under the impression that demoting an Admin meant moving them down to Patroller, not stripping them of all rights. As far as I can tell from the vote, we should still have JBanton and Dodo listed as active Patrollers (making a total of 8). That also means if they hadn't decided to resign, Mikey and Thomas would have been voted to be inactive Patrollers along with Tony. Are we wrong in this? To be honest it would have affected at lest my vote. smurfy (coms) 23:22, January 23, 2015 (UTC)
I'll promote them both to patrollers. Messi1983 (talk) 08:36, January 24, 2015 (UTC)

Profile

Hi Dan. I'm having a little problem. I'm not being able to edit my own profile page. It says I don't have the privileges to do it. Could you please look into it when possible? Thanks. And by the way, thanks for the support message on the CNB. It was great being an admin and now I'm looking forward to keep being active around here editing. --Thomas0802 โ€ข (talk โ€ข edits) 19:21, January 23, 2015 (UTC)

New userboxes?

Bureaucrat

Thanks for the vote of confidence. Give me a year, and I'll think about applying. Leo68 (talk) 09:36, January 24, 2015 (UTC)

Yeah, I got the position in July 2014. I didn't realize you watched it, I still watch it on YouTube and I have some episodes on my hard drive. I'll consider applying in January. I'm sure Jeff will stay as Bureaucrat until then. Leo68 (talk) 18:33, January 24, 2015 (UTC)

Sasquatch has a 7-5 yes to no vote. Due to the amount of yes (with conditions) votes and his previous demotion, I say we put him on the three month probation. The policy was agreed by myself and Tom, and you'll find everythig you need to know in the rollback section in the applying for positon section of the RfP. Leo68 (talk) 18:39, January 24, 2015 (UTC)

I went to the UK back in the early 2000s I watched an episode in my hotel around the time they wiped out a majority of the cast. I think it was the big fire episode. I was intrigued and watched the older episodes and kept watching them online.

I remember, you and Tom were the only Bureaucrats who approved it. Leo68 (talk) 18:44, January 24, 2015 (UTC)

Thanks and sorry

Thanks for demoting me back to a regualr user. I'd been considering relinquishing any powers above being a regular wikia editor globally. Changing life circumstances have meant that I don't really spend that much time on the internet (besides for work purposes). I'll not be gone completely, hopefully I'll find some time to edit in the future.

I should probably apologise for being so quiet and not really attending to my duties on this wikia. Take care (both yourself and the rest of the staff) JBanton (Talk | Contribs) 11:51, January 24, 2015 (UTC)

Hi

Noticed that MediaWiki:Common.css/hilite needs to be updated. Monolith Patch Rain - Talk SCS Freedom 12:52, January 24, 2015 (UTC)

Rename

Thanks Dan :) AndreEagle17 (talk) 13:28, January 24, 2015 (UTC)

Neymar

He's a excellent player, he is for now the best brazilian soccer player we have, he practically carried the brazilian team in his back, that's why Brazil was shamefully defeated by the Germany, if we had him playing, maybe we wouldn't lose like this, at least we would lose from 1-0 or 2-0 or maybe even a tie game. AndreEagle17 (talk) 14:38, January 24, 2015 (UTC)

I also like Messi's soccer style, he is a monster, makes us figure out if he really exists in soccer, I never saw anyone playing like he does :P but so far, the best players I've ever seen was Ronaldo and Ronaldinho respectively, I remember 2002 world cup, Ronaldo used to play insanely, but hey say he played better in Barcelona than in Real Madrid (I dislike Real Madrid) AndreEagle17 (talk) 14:45, January 24, 2015 (UTC)
My favorite team in Brazil is Flamengo and out of Brazil is Barcelona, I used to be much more fanatic with soccer, but nowadays I just watch when it's all good, you know, Flamengo used to be stronger, but makes me relaxed when I see that Fla's rivals are much weaker and pathetic xD AndreEagle17 (talk) 14:52, January 24, 2015 (UTC)

Oh, Liverpool, last time that Flamengo played against Liverpool was in the Intercontinental cup back in 1981, it's been over 30 years, Flamengo didn't win any international championship since then, but I have seen Santos (Neymar's former team) playing against Barcelona back in 2011. AndreEagle17 (talk) 15:18, January 24, 2015 (UTC)

You know what? Brazilian teams are strong, but only towards weak teams, but when it comes to stronger teams such as Spain, Germany and Netherlands, they simply fail like if they were small teams, I never understood that :P AndreEagle17 (talk) 15:25, January 24, 2015 (UTC)
England has gone below-average in this world cup, many people here favor England, but they don't go too far, I was hoping that Netherlands win someday, they somehow give up at the end. AndreEagle17 (talk) 15:36, January 24, 2015 (UTC)

Unfortunately I have only seen Ronaldo, Ronaldinho and Messi, the others were not even comparable. AndreEagle17 (talk) 15:41, January 24, 2015 (UTC)

Zico!!! :D The best player ever played on my soccer team, it's almost impossible to talk about him without talking about his performance on Flamengo, he got us four national championships and both continental and intercontinental cups, I have never seen him playing, but I always heard something good about him, about the best team i've ever seen, I can say that 2008-2011 Barรงa and (despite hating it) 2000-2006 Real Madrid. AndreEagle17 (talk) 15:50, January 24, 2015 (UTC)
I don't hate them for being Barรงa's rivals, but because their whole story reveal that they are douchebags, including Cristiano Ronaldo, I don't wanna sound hypocrite, Messi is a bit arrogant, but Real's players are much more of douchebags than Barรงa's, Ronaldo for an example, he started being a douchebag after he came back to Brazil, another player who is a big douchebag for me is Luis Figo, I bet you think the same about him. AndreEagle17 (talk) 16:01, January 24, 2015 (UTC)

This is one of the main reasons, the Catalan independence, I read the whole story, this makes me hate Real Madrid more, it only proves that they are all douchebags, mainly Figo and Ronaldo (nowadays) AndreEagle17 (talk) 16:11, January 24, 2015 (UTC)

Yeah, Zidane was the only good one and he was not a douchebag like the others. AndreEagle17 (talk) 16:28, January 24, 2015 (UTC)

Sasquatch

Doesn't have enough votes to become a patroller actually, I checked the numbers on a calculator. Don't promote him yet. Jeff (talkยทstalk) 18:49, January 24, 2015 (UTC)

Read what I say in the comments section. Messi1983 (talk) 18:52, January 24, 2015 (UTC)
When did this "Yes with conditions" stuff become something we did here? I haven't been back for 24 hours so I don't want to go throwing my weight around, but we used to specifically forbid that kind of voting. I think it was over the Winter Moon demotion vote when we ended up killing the entire discussion because it was full of Yes If and No But votes and complicated schematics that wouldn't actually accomplish anything. Jeff (talkยทstalk)
I think it came about with our new probation policy. Messi1983 (talk) 19:00, January 24, 2015 (UTC)

Don't delete my comments and declare them as acts of meatpupperty. You can't prove I'm one, as I've been contributing to this wiki for three years. Read the meatpuppetry page. It states: A new user who engages in the same behavior as another user in the same context, and who appears to be editing GTA Wiki solely for that purpose, may be subject to the remedies applied to the user whose behavior they are joining. --Boomer8 (talk) 20:04, January 24, 2015 (UTC)

Get off Sasquatch's nuts then. Messi1983 (talk) 20:06, January 24, 2015 (UTC)
I'm not on Sasquatch's nuts. I just get offended when people falsely accuse me of something just so they can get their way. Boomer8 (talk) 20:08, January 24, 2015 (UTC)
Meatpuppetry applies to all users not just new users. Messi1983 (talk) 20:10, January 24, 2015 (UTC)
Is that why it specifically says new users on its page? --Boomer8 (talk) 20:12, January 24, 2015 (UTC)
Thanks for pointing that out to me. I'll rewrite the page. Messi1983 (talk) 20:15, January 24, 2015 (UTC)
Wow, rewriting the page. Like I said, you and Jeff twist and rewrite rules so you can get your way. Pathetic. Boomer8 (talk) 20:17, January 24, 2015 (UTC)
The page needed a rewrite as to explain what meatpuppetry is as meatpuppetry does not just apply to new users. Messi1983 (talk) 20:20, January 24, 2015 (UTC)
Says you and Jeff, right? That rule has never been touched for years and you're twisting it now. Anybody can see that. --Boomer8 (talk) 20:23, January 24, 2015 (UTC)
