From Create Your Own Story
I found some bs links I guess the spammer left, and deleted them. Sadly, the spammer deleted all the rated R stories, and I'm not sure how to bring them back. Might want to look into this.--Olboyfloats
Well, he said he was leaving. Looks like we might be safe.--Guardian Angel 18:33, 22 February 2007 (EST)
Need help deleating the 1s? Fruitbat
I can;t find where to deleat a page.
Do you have a feeling that Decimus Callilaus (or whatever his name is) was actually Gauis Fleminus and managed to change his IP address or something? Fruitbat
There's another Roman vandal. Right now, I'm sure that it's either Gaius or a group of vandals that know him. Congrats on blocking him before he destroyed the site! Fruitbat
I wish there was a way to like block all users with Roman names so that the Roman vandals can't come on anymore! It's a good thing Robkohr gave us those powers! Fruitbat
What is that 70. whatever user doing? He's filling up the entire page with stories he hasen't even started!? Fruitbat
Does the Tredguard's Treasure quest really belong in Normal stories? Fruitbat
Sorry, I guess I'm just lazy and don't proofread my edits. Won't happen again. Lucky numbers
Exeuse me? What did you say I messed up? I know I neede to proofread my sections of Cusader, but I have no clue what the other thing you mentioned. sexy smutt romp? I don't understand. Lucky numbers
Frankly, I'm getting confused of all the 68. members. I just blocked one, and another shows up and starts editing the same page, with the same warnings that the user I blocked had. I am just confused! Fruitbat
It's like a cult of Secret Island people, who save-edit-save-edit etc. Fruitbat
Thanks for saving Boromir's Quest from the link spammer. Fruitbat
Olay, thanks! Fruitbat
Do you have any idea what is going on with Boromir's Quest? Every time I try to make a new page, it takes me to this stupid page which makes my type in a word before I can continue. Do you know what this is? Fruitbat

Categories-
- They make it easier to determine what story a page belongs to when the page is viewed out of context.
- They make it easier to determine how many pages belong to a given story.
Having unique templates for stories delivers both advantages... both there's nothing wrong with categorizing the pages as well, if you really want to do all that work. --Platypus 12:49, 15 March 2007 (EST)
Thanks. I don't really mind the work, because, for the most part, adding a category to the template will add each page to that category to. Personally, I think it'll also help to organize the wiki a bit, so that we don't just have pages with names that are meaningless without the rest of the story. But that's just me. — LastUserNameEver 21:55, 15 March 2007 (EST)
Categories are not needed for Kitty in the Window or any adventure with a unique status bar. They already basically have a category all to themselves! Fruitbat
Pictures
Just trying to help, that's all. Most of the pix are Wikipedia pic anyhow....I'm trying to keep everything copyright-safe. 204.52.215.13 17:49, 26 March 2007 (EST)

Rabbit Hole
Hey! You completely rock! Thanks for all the help making the story look great! I'm still a little new when it comes to all this, but with your help, I'd have to say I'm very proud of how this story is starting out! HAIL ERIS!! --Olboyfloats
Oh, I LOVE the flipped Chao and the colored box. Super cool stuff. This whole Rabbit Hole thing is getting deeper and deeper every day! --Olboyfloats
Ya,sry bout that...I deal with getting users to do that.May I ask why the categories arn't integrated with the template?Shazlin 23:24, 19 June 2007 (EDT)
Darkened Hope
Please add it to R-rated stories. --09:14, 21 June 2007 (EDT)
- Thanks for the speedy service. I'm working on it. --09:26, 21 June 2007 (EDT)

My CYOA
I want to put Ectoplasm in the General Category.Mr. Giga 04:23, 23 June 2007 (EDT)
Hey Platypus, I'm kind of wanting to write my own story now, front page in the 18+ section, could you help me out? Oh, and is there some way to put it on there and work on it while keeping it locked from other people (until I'm finished or have a decent start on it) Thanks. --Ashogo
sysop
Hi Platypus,
You have been a great user on the system and I have given you sysop rights. This means that you can block users that are vandals on the system. If you would like to look up a user's IP address go to the Control Panel and use the tool there. Then go to special pages to go to the block IP form. Please use this feature sparingly. Blocks should only be used for users that are trying to destroy the site and not to censor content.
Thanks,
--RobKohr 03:03, 25 February 2007 (EST)
- Sometimes after you submit it takes you to an "create a wiki page". That is just a problem with the redirect and the block did work.
- Fruitbat is another user that I granted rights on
- I have already blocked Gaius
Thanks for the tip Rickyrab 18:21, 22 March 2007 (EST)
Thanks for hooking up the Rabbit Hole! I've started some of the basic begginnings of it, and will be working on it a ton over the weekend. Feel free to correct my spelling, make it funnier, add new things, whatever. After this weekend, when I'm happy with it, I'm going to start advertising it amongst my regular Discordian channels, and inviting everyone to play along. My hope is that someday it has more pages than the Smutty Sex thingy.. Olboyfloats
hey platypus i would like to move tree of doom to the 18+rated section but i dont know how, can you help me?
Hi Platypus
Thanks for letting me know about the health bars & such. Hope I'm not creating too much work for you when I forget them occasionally.
About the Hitchhikers Guide problem - so, are ALL of these stories interlinked?
Canary8623

Death to perversion
Your empire of perversion is at an end! Go post your porn on a porn site, and let this wiki become a Choose-your-own Adventure Wiki, not a place for sick idiots such as yourself to masturbate!
Death to perversion! Let logic reign!
--Imperator Romanum 17:31, 26 November 2007 (EST)
Get a life, loser. And try making your own site with stories you like instead of trying to trash our site. --Platypus 19:23, 26 November 2007 (EST)
- If this wiki uses an up-to-date version of MediaWiki, you should be able to rollback pages directly from a user's list of contributions, which should be a little faster. --Camper9 20:30, 29 November 2007 (EST)
Thanks
Thanks for adding in the status bar. I wasn't sure how to do that, but once I saw how you added them in, I figured it out rather quickly. -Kliesh
