| Content | 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? |

| Content | ... 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". :( |
| Post Info | ILHI 16:28, 20 August 2007 (EDT) |
| Content | 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) }}
|-

| Content | Umm... What's that sticky's purpose? I thought the Custom sticky was for making personalized stickies. |
| Post Info | ILHI 04:49, 20 August 2007 (EDT) |
| Content | 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}}
|

| Content | 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. |

| Content | Unbanned him. Go to the Special Page about Blocked IPs and Accounts, click unban next to the member. |
| Post Info | Xylaquin 16:02, 19 August 2007 (EDT) |
| Content | 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. |

| Content | 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. |
| Post Info | ILHI 13:47, 19 August 2007 (EDT) |
| Content | link to other features they have. |
| Post Info | Drifting 12:42, 19 August 2007 (EDT) |
| Content | 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? |
| Post Info | ILHI 08:05, 19 August 2007 (EDT) |
| Content |  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. |

| Content | 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. |
| Post Info | Koopa64 18:46, 18 August 2007 (EDT) |
| Content | Also, I added another sticky to my page.
Are YOU a supporter of Classic Gaming? |
| Post Info | Koopa64 18:25, 18 August 2007 (EDT) |
| Content | Sorry I can't be of any help to you guys on this matter, I'm not really Admin material... :(
In other news, I found somebody who (evidently) discovered the "Play as Monkey in Monkey Assistant" glitch. :) |

| Content | 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. |
| Post Info | Drifting 17:57, 18 August 2007 (EDT) |
| Content | 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. |
| Post Info | Xylaquin 17:24, 18 August 2007 (EDT) |
| Content | 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... |
