Nice

Hiya, I just ran across one of your vandalism warnings, and I just wanted to say Kudos on presenting it in a humorous way with a cute graphic! Maybe we should add it as an option at {{behave}}?  :) --Elonka 17:22, 26 July 2007 (UTC)

Thank you! :)

Thank you for your beautiful words and warm wishes on my birthday, dear friend! I took a well-deserved one-day wikibreak and spent it with my family and my friends... and actually had a beer after months of forced abstinence! :) Of course, there's no way I'd forget about you, so I saved a great, tasty piece of chocolate cake just for you - but sorry, no beer left! Again, thank you so much for taking the time to wish me well, and have a wonderful day, dear Ariel! Love, Phaedriel - 06:19, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

Hey, that userpage design seems "very" familiar to me! ;) Just kidding, feel free to use it - I hope it serves you well, and welcome to Misplaced Pages, Ariel! xxx, Sharon

An Observation

Your level-3 vandalism warning is the bee's knees... Dust Filter 20:14, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

Why, thank you! 20:16, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for the nice image. :) Acalamari 22:24, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

Your signature

I like it. -- DS1953 22:27, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

Dear Ariel

Dear Ariel, this is a very quick, short tiny note to tell you I really loved your long and thoughtful note to me, and you truly deserve an appropriate reply. My deepest apologies for not bringing my magic wand of words right now! :) I'm about to leave for work, but I wanted you to know that you can expect something a little longer, and deeper, in the next hours. But mostly, I also wish to put your mind at rest regarding your adoption of my design for your userpage. Sweetie, it's perfectly ok, and it's in fact a flattery to me. It's always delightful to see my modest efforts serve other people, especially someone as nice as you. And nice work adapting it too! :) I can think of a few ways to improve it, if you allow me - we'll talk about it later. Have a wonderful day! :) Love, Phaedriel - 13:02, 1 August 2007 (UTC)

Ahh, I can let out the giant breath I've been holding, and remove my finger from the "Revert" button. Thank you for easing my mind, Phaedriel, (hey that rhymes with Ariel! lol) and I most definitely look forward to your reply and any improvements you have in mind! I'm not 100% happy with it as it is, but I've spent so many hours getting nowhere improving it that I decided to stop while I was ahead, lol. (Did you look at what it was before? ~*Shudder*~) Talk to you soon! 13:06, 1 August 2007 (UTC)

Impressive work

I'd like to thank you for your impressive Misplaced Pages-space contributions in the last few months. If you keep that up another few months and write a few articles I'd be honored to nominate you for adminship. --AnonEMouse 17:20, 2 August 2007 (UTC)

I would also be honored to nominate you. I am sure with the required amount of experience you would be an amazing administrator no questions asked. Chrislk02 (Chris Kreider) 17:31, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
I'm in absolutely no rush, lol. And as Chris knows, I'm well aware I have a lot to learn. (Hey Chris, I've gone 36 hours without bugging you, do you miss me yet?) 17:34, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
Of course, why else would I have come bugging you? Chrislk02 (Chris Kreider) 17:43, 2 August 2007 (UTC)

Thank you/ help

thanks for the advice, and I mean that sincerely. I finally brought others around to my position but am /was receiving harassment from blaxthos. he repeatedly removed things from the talk page! then threatened me with banning. once again thank you for being civil.Towers84 17:45, 2 August 2007 (UTC)

You're most welcome, and any time I can help, you're free to holler at me! I'm glad you got things solved, and remember, don't take it personally! If you find he's being abusive to you on a continuing basis, let me know and I'll get someone to look into it. 17:47, 2 August 2007 (UTC)

August 7, 2007 me again but on a different IP i got blocked for a week because I was misinterpreted he said I had some sort of beef with fox and that I made threats and blxthos said he would report me ANI but i dont think he told the the truth and\or he misquoted me. here thank you again, towers84 72.189.48.223 04:45, 7 August 2007 (UTC)

Hmm, it really looks like you've gotten into quite a controversial area, one I'm not willing to step into. However, I can give you some tips, first of all, merely "citing a source" isn't always enough to meet policy. The sources must be reliable sources, (i.e. well known newspapers, news stations, etc.), for an idea of what the criteria for that is, see here. Second, I'd suggest that you again realize that this is not something worth being upset over. Don't get in edit wars, and most of all, don't shout at others, (typing in all caps) or otherwise engage in attacks, as we talked earlier, those aren't productive and rarely end well. I would especially direct you to re-read the response posted by /Blaxthos again, without being defensive, as it specifically quotes the sentence that had him/her very upset. (Without knowing your motivations, I will assume you simply wrote that as a hypothetical example, and not as a threat, as he's intimating.) Now, read the response Arzel posted, he agrees with you that the information should be removed. If edit wars ensue, my suggestion is to take it to the next level, ask on the board what that would be, different topics have different dispute resolution areas, and I'm not familiar with what that would be under. I'm sorry if that doesn't help much, but I think you can get on the right track if you can refrain from getting so bothered by things, and restrain your temper a teeny bit :) Cheers! 04:59, 7 August 2007 (UTC)

About that IP that copyvioed on Albert Pike

The sources also fail WP:RS, and are misleading in the extreme. I would suggest reverting on sight if you see the IP editing again. MSJapan 02:52, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

Okay thanks for the heads up, I'll add it to my watchlist and keep an eye open. 02:53, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

I figure you deserve a second smile after unceremoniously dragging you by tooth and claw to the land of Ho-Oh Spaghettios. :) -WarthogDemon 21:45, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
Thanks WD, I really appreciate it. I'm sorry you were involved, but after doing more looking, it seems that whole Pokemon thing is pretty contentious at times, makes me glad I don't know what it is! LOL. 21:47, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
Nah, it's a fun game and cartoon show. (It's an anime, manga, video game, card game, and pretty much in all shapes and form in the media.) :) The big contentious issues is our deciding to merge the Pokemon into lists but I won't bore you with the details of that. Happy editing! :D -WarthogDemon 21:50, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

Template message etiquette

Please see here. Don't be put off by the drama surrounding this at the moment. You have some good suggestions there, and I'd like to see an essay written on them. Please ask if you need any help. Carcharoth 00:02, 8 August 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the note. I've replied on the talk page of the essay. It's very impressive. I also saw User:ArielGold/Etiquette: archiving for posterity as it is up for AfD - that's more organised than I've ever managed to be! :-) Anyway, good luck with the essay (though it looks more like a fully fledged guideline to me). Let me know when it's finished. Carcharoth 00:28, 8 August 2007 (UTC)

Boink!

Have you checked your mail lately, Ariel? ;) Love, Phaedriel - 22:08, 8 August 2007 (UTC)

Doh! No I haven't! ~*Rushes off to check email*~ 22:15, 8 August 2007 (UTC)

Maybe it's your browser

That user who was showing up as six question marks for you was showing as six swastikas to me, using Firefox. - Crockspot 05:52, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

Hrmmm, I'm on Firefox, most recent build, and it showed as ?????? to me. 05:55, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

Oh, and good job on the living in Colorado. Or did live. Just so happens to be the best state :) <cough><cough>. Jmlk17 06:25, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
Awww, thank you so much Jmlk! And yep, I may not reside there at present, but my heart and soul does, and it IS the best state! It is home. And everyone knows, there's no place like home. 06:27, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
Exactly. Has been home for me for years now actually :). Jmlk17 06:32, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

I'm jealous. I want to go home, lol. 06:37, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

Ariel is homesick.

Aw. Poor Ariel! Why on earth did you ever leave? Jmlk17 06:38, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
Ugh, trust me it wasn't my choice. And I literally would give all I have to return. I miss waking up and seeing the mountains, from one side of the view to the other, every single day. The sight of the Rockies could bring joy into my heart, even in my darkest days. Now I'm stuck in nowhereseville, midwest, and I can't even tell which way is north, because I don't have the mountains there to guide me. It is hot, humid, and there are icky bugs everywhere! I could handle the heat in Colorado, 110 there felt like 78 here, lol. And oh ... I miss the snow, the skiing, snowshoeing up to the top of a mountain, *sigh*. Someday, my friend, someday I will make it back to my home, and I will never, ever leave again. Ever! In the meantime, you can look at the mountains and tell them I don't forget, and I'll be back soon. :) 06:42, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
Man, I know how you feel! I went away to school on the East Coast for a while, and got so sick of the humidity and not being able to tell which way was West, etc. I am actually moving back to Fort Collins soon, so I will enjoy it for the both of us :). We miss ya here though...never enough Colorado lovers here. Jmlk17 06:47, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

Ahhh, Fort Collins, great little quirky fun town. I used to go up there on weekends. I lived in Arvada, had a gorgeous view, and I'd work a three day week, (16/8/16) so I'd get four days in a row off to go into the mountains to ski, snowshoe, etc. I loved it. I'll be back (sounding nothing like Arnold). Well, Ariel must go to sleep now, and Jmlk, thank you so much for the chat, really it meant a lot to talk to someone who can understand. You have a wonderful night, I'll be back in a few hours! 06:50, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

Of course. I lived in Arvada for about 18 months when I was little. Hope you sleep well, and I hope the homesickness isn't too bad when you wake up. Cause I've been there, and done that, and I know it isn't always pleasant to be away from home. But hey, look on the bright side: least you're not in Boulder ;). TTYL. Jmlk17 06:52, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
ROFL I worked there for a year or so, had to drive 36 in nasty storms, ugh, but I honestly came to like the town, with all its quirky people. It was a pretty fun place to hang out, but I wouldn't want to live there, lol. G'Night! 06:56, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

Lol I was more of a Broncos fan anyway. Truth be told, I don't understand hockey at all, lol. (~*GASP! I know I know, I'm such a girl! LOL*~) As for your heat, try adding 99% humidity to that, and then dump in 24 hours of rain, with flood warnings all over, lol. That's what it's like here. BLAH! 07:15, 10 August 2007 (UTC)
