Welcome to the dark side, or, as some prefer to call it, the "cesspit of the internet." Tetronian ^{you're clueless} 02:27, 8 October 2009 (UTC)

That should be an option for the welcome template. I've seen it far too much. Udon 02:33, 8 October 2009 (UTC)

Yeah, it should be either that or Godspeed. Tetronian ^{you're clueless} 02:39, 8 October 2009 (UTC)

What's an Oodon? (I suppose I shoudl read your user page). Oh, and Welcome to the Dollhouse! ħuman 05:39, 11 October 2009 (UTC)

I think it's a noodle, but I may be spelling it wrong. Udon 18:12, 11 October 2009 (UTC)

You are. ListenerX^TalkerX 18:15, 11 October 2009 (UTC)

Hmm.. do you guys have the "Rename user" thing, like Cp does? Udon 18:28, 11 October 2009 (UTC)

Yep. What'll it be then? Aboriginal Noise ^{Oh, what a lovely tea party!} 18:31, 11 October 2009 (UTC)

Even though it'll screw up a comment I made on an article for Jinx. I think he can still find me even if I'm called "Udon". Udon 18:33, 11 October 2009 (UTC)

So it will be done. Aboriginal Noise ^{Oh, what a lovely tea party!} 18:43, 11 October 2009 (UTC)

And it is done. Your old name will redirect to the new one. Aboriginal Noise ^{Oh, what a lovely tea party!} 18:45, 11 October 2009 (UTC)

Thanks much. Here, have a cookie. 18:52, 11 October 2009 (UTC)

Found it! Aboriginal Noise ^{Oh, what a lovely tea party!} 18:59, 11 October 2009 (UTC)

You found my cheese wiki?! NUUUUU- Udon 19:13, 11 October 2009 (UTC)

Does everyone have their own wiki nowadays? Totnesmartin 19:17, 11 October 2009 (UTC)

I think so. I doubt TK has one though. Udon 19:18, 11 October 2009 (UTC)

I have a wiki, but I keep it on my computer. Wisest evil Hoover! 19:20, 11 October 2009 (UTC)

Hangover

I thought I would offset my hangover by inflicting a sysopship upon you. Read this handy and irrelevant guide for further info. Ace^McWicked 19:20, 11 October 2009 (UTC)

Guide? This is my 4th time being made sysop here. I don't need a guide! Udon 19:28, 11 October 2009 (UTC)

What are your other accounts named? Ace^McWicked 19:39, 11 October 2009 (UTC)

I'm Kektklik, duh!

Your experiments with MediaWiki

Feel free to use my laboratory for your wiki-editing experiments. Just don't make too much of a mess, or I'll send my Goon Squad after you. Have fun, Mwahahahahahaha!!! The Goonie 1 ^{What's this button do? Uh oh....} 22:48, 13 October 2009 (UTC)

Forum member

I don't want to doubt you without evidence, but I don't recognise you as one of the old guard around here. Do you have a previous account? - π 04:29, 14 October 2009 (UTC)

see above. With all the faces I make.. you should have been able to figure it out by now.

I can see Kektklik on the user list, but the only post you have made is publicly visible. Any other names I should try? - π 04:48, 14 October 2009 (UTC)

I had an account?! No wonder I couldn't create it. -.-

I just made a new one that's waiting to get approved. Udon 04:50, 14 October 2009 (UTC)

Kay I C. That article is about the mysterious hidden forums that TK looks under his bed for every night. - π 04:52, 14 October 2009 (UTC)

"Under his bed"? Don't you mean "under his pillow" as a gift from the [as much as I hate the RationalWiki terminology] AndyLand fairy or something? Udon 04:57, 14 October 2009 (UTC)

What is your preferred term? - π 05:00, 14 October 2009 (UTC)

Define spoofing

That could mean anything. - π 03:10, 23 October 2009 (UTC)

Oh, like disguising your own email address as someone else's... or saying that this one email address is your own, when it isn't, nor do you have access to the actual account.

I guess it would kinda be like a proxy for emailing, so you can email random s**t to people as if it weren't you. Udon 03:12, 23 October 2009 (UTC)

Mozilla Thunderbird lets you do something like that, I think. Never tried it though. - π 03:16, 23 October 2009 (UTC)

I remember the good old days before encrypted MTAs and spam filtering, when you could just Telnet into your mail relay on port 25 and type out your message, putting anything you liked into the "From" header. ListenerX^TalkerX 04:39, 23 October 2009 (UTC)

I do have my college's Telnet, hmmm... but I don't want to risk probation for something like that. Right now I'm using Conservapedia to spoof, but it always comes up with the Username as part of the "from". Udon 07:17, 23 October 2009 (UTC)

Assuming you are Kektklik

The bot is ready for use. Wisest evil Hoover! 07:59, 23 October 2009 (UTC)

Thanks, but I'll use it when I'm not failing two of my four classes or falling behind in my other two. >.< Udon 14:14, 23 October 2009 (UTC)

OK. I can run it from my computer, but I don't know what order I should import the categories in. What order were you using before? Wisest evil Hoover! 15:12, 23 October 2009 (UTC)

I was using an order? o.O

I started with cp:Andrew Schlafly, then filled in the articles/categories from there. Udon 18:27, 23 October 2009 (UTC)

Oh, right. I shall use some subjective criterion. Wisest evil Hoover! 19:59, 23 October 2009 (UTC)

Oh, could you add the bot and sysop flags to User:ImportBot? Wisest evil Hoover! 20:04, 23 October 2009 (UTC)

Uhh, that's one of the things I don't know how to do... add the "bot" flag to a user. When I go to user rights management, the following rights are grayed-out: Bot, Wikia Staff, Oversight, Helper, Check user

...that was one of the things I was trying to figure out before the whole situation (not school personal matters) got worse. Udon 23:26, 23 October 2009 (UTC)

Note to self

Be less obvious.
