| Well, spam problems aside, I think we should do something about custom Mapmaker levels, I have tons of TS:FP levels and TS2 levels that I want to share with you guys, but we have no means of doing so. Sure there have been several times where this idea flopped, but this is the TSWiki, it needs some user-made maps too. I personally think this is a serious issue we haven't dealt with yet.
Can you admins do something about this?

| I haven't noticed it yet. Maybe editthis decided to add such a feature.
EDIT: Noticed it. Perhaps they heard our call ^_^

| I'm noticing that in order to edit a lot of pages, you have to enter a code now. Is this the new anti-spam device?

| ... It doesn't seem to follow the Sticky code, but ok, I'll try it.
... >_> It isn't working... All I get is "Template:Sticky - Example". :(

| That's just an example, it isn't but, if you want to add another sticky, then add this on the end.
|{{ (Insert sticky name) }}

| Umm... What's that sticky's purpose? I thought the Custom sticky was for making personalized stickies.

| It's gonna change, I'm on it right now. Also, my old TS1 and TS2 saves were wiped, along with my brothers, as was my TSFP, but I has made a copy to my memory card. So this meaning the totals are not my totals. As I didn't go on TS1 a lot in the olden days however, I can give my TS1, and TSFP.
Also, If you want to add more stickies, add this after the last sticky:
|-
|{{Sticky - something}}

| Hey Xylaquin, thanks for the All sticky, now I can add some more without messing up my page. :D
Another thing, I think posting you're total playtime in the TS games is something we should start doing. I would like to know how long you admins have played the TS games. :) Go to my page to see what I mean.

| Unbanned him. Go to the Special Page about Blocked IPs and Accounts, click unban next to the member.

| You're right Nevar, when I saw it I suspected it, but on further inspection I noticed the 4th character is uncapitalized and the name does kinda make sence. Problem is, I'm not sure how to unban a member :(
I'll change their userpage.

| Are you sure Selwyn was a spambot? His name was quite different from the others... and I noticed in the recent changes he was "suspected" of being one.

| Wow, I had no idea we had this many spambots. I'd assumed we'd only had a few based on how many was actually attacked. Maybe we should change our registration process.
EDIT: Notice that all of the spambots have 6 character names?

|  That's a lot.
Also, should we delete the "All Outdoors" category, for now anyway? Because there is one map, and it isn't all outdoors.

| New Category: Wiki - Spambot
On visiting the Userlist, I noticed that there were around 50 other spambot accounts lying in wait untill they strike yet another talk page with links. On a more positive note, there also a new sticky I made. Since some of us have All the TimeSplitters game, I've created a "All" sticky which states this. It saves people using 3 stickies.

In other news, I found somebody who (evidently) discovered the "Play as Monkey in Monkey Assistant" glitch. :)

| Bots aren't clever enough to go and email an email address with their email. Are they?
I come on here loads. Just because it's in my chain of websites I visit, so, yeah, we can do it fairly quickly, but it's really annoying.

| Hmm, maybe. But how are we going to be able to tell who's a bot and who's not based solely on an e-mail address. Granted, this system would allow us to block the most obvious offenders, but we might block out some legit users in the process. It's a bit of a conundrum, really. I really don't think we have enough of a problem with spambots yet to warrant this system. At the moment, we seem to be able to reverse their vandalism fairly quickly.

| Well ILHI and I have just banned two spambots. These things are trouble as there's no option to enable bot-stoppers in registration (like "type these characters"). Registration is disabled at the moment. Perhaps we should implement a system where new registrants email an email address and are then registered by an Admin; this wouldn't be a lot of work since not many people join frequently.
But having to email to join does deter new members...
