Spam
Hello OrbAdventures. My name is DarkFuture, an administrator of this site. I noticed that you recently spammed the Xbox 360 article, making claims that the "ps3 is way better" and the Xbox 360 is "gay". While I do applaud you for removing your spam, I wish to stress that your previous actions were very unacceptable. If you continue to spam and/or vandalize the articles on this wiki, I will be forced to block your account from editing here. I hope to see you edit more constructively from now on. 05:06, November 28, 2012 (UTC)

Sorry about that. I was editing something else about the Xbox 360 at school (luckily my school didn't block this website) and I had to do something else and one of my friends quickly made that spam since he hated the 360 and preferred PS3. I had to beat that guy up for doing that but the real me would never comdemn the Xbox 360, one of the best video game consoles.OrbAdventures (talk) 07:02, March 11, 2013 (UTC)

Hi there!
Hi OrbAdventures! My name is PhysTheEchidna, and I'm an editor here with roughly the same amount of edits as you. I noticed you like to play Sonic music on your violin. As it turns out, I'm a pianist, and I enjoy playing Sonic music on my piano! I even arrange pieces by ear (like here), and although I'm not the best at it I'm pretty quick to learn I just thought I would come and say hi, since you have contributed nicely to this wiki and nobody has seemed to welcome you yet. So again, thankyou for your edits, and I hope to see you some time in the future. PhysTheEchidna ( talk )  11:29, April 9, 2013 (UTC)

Cool. I'm just starting out with Green Hill (it's pretty simple) and the other classical zones along with the pieces on my actual practice sheldue. So yeah nice to meet you PhysTheEchidna.

Extreme Gear help
Hello OrbAdventures. My name is Ultrasonic9000. You may have noticed my work with the Extreme Gear articles and that I'm nearing the end of it. However, I have trouble finding a decent explanation for the abilties of the Extreme Gears Potential and Professional in Sonic Free Riders. Seeing the edit you made on Omnitempus made me wonder if you had Sonic Free Riders, and if so, can you give an explanation for the special abilties these two Extreme Gears have?Ultrasonic9000 (talk) 10:32, April 24, 2013 (UTC)

Yes I have Sonic Free Riders and I will just have to look through the info of the Potential and Professional to see if I can get enough info. I'm not sure if any of these two gears have some other special abilities though.OrbAdventures (talk) 23:32, April 24, 2013 (UTC)

I've done Potential but I will upload a picture of Professional.OrbAdventures (talk) 02:57, April 25, 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for the explanation on the Potential. I'll try to reformat it a little with a better picture and such. Oh, and also. when you want to respond to a message written here, it works better when you write your response on the talk page for the user you want to communicate with. ;)Ultrasonic9000 (talk) 06:10, April 25, 2013 (UTC)

So... have you gotten anything on the abilities that the Professional has, if any?Ultrasonic9000 (talk) 10:17, April 29, 2013 (UTC)

How Many Sonic Riders do I have?
None, none at all. Rather ironic since I wrote all the Extreme Gear articles, right?Ultrasonic9000 (talk) 11:47, May 19, 2013 (UTC)

I'll take that to consideration.--SlugDrones • (Contact) 05:21, May 21, 2013 (UTC)

I have 177 emblems, I need to get all A's on Eggman's stages and two of the chao races. (I do have 100% on Sonic Unleashed though!). I have SA2B on Gamecube. Sandra the Porcupine "Either you do or you don't."  19:40, May 22, 2013 (UTC)

I'm not sure, I've only raised one chao up to all level 99 stats. She beat it though, but died and reincarnated soon after. I just retried the last karate level over and over again. Sandra the Porcupine "Either you do or you don't."  23:04, May 22, 2013 (UTC)

Wikia stars
Thanks. I guess it would be flattering to be appointed as a Wikia Star, but I'm not sure what the benefit is beyond that. -- Supermorff (talk) 12:23, May 23, 2013 (UTC)

Pictures
I think I can find a few. May not be the best quality, but its better than nothing. Have you considered about getting an emulator though (the thing that records your tv's content on the computer)? You could really get some good pictures out of it with that television you got. Also though, can I ask you if you could figure out who can ride which Extreme Gear in Sonic Free Riders? That would be a big help.Ultrasonic9000 (talk) 10:55, May 31, 2013 (UTC)

Thats alright, and I only need info on who can ride what in Sonic Free Riders. Information on that game is virtually non-existing.Ultrasonic9000 (talk) 11:30, May 31, 2013 (UTC)

Extreme Gear article
Keep calm. Take a break until you feel less stressed. Then either start a discussion on the talk page so you can work it out between yourselves, or try to compromise (e.g. by adding the extra information in the body of the article, not in the infobox). -- Supermorff (talk) 09:57, June 1, 2013 (UTC)

Hello OrAdventures, this is UltraSonic9000 again. Listen, nothing can express how grateful I am for you helping me out on finding out who can ride what in Sonic Free Riders. However, we seem to have a disagreement on how the users of the extreme gear are presented. So, rather going into an edit war with you, I hope we can settle this as resonable people.

Now, let me voice my side of this disagreement. What I am against with regarding your edits is that you mention that the users of the extreme gear is listed only according to what game the character appeared in, which according to you means that they can only use the an recurring Extreme Gear in, for example, the two out of three games the character appeared where the Extreme Gear has appeared in all three games. I disagree with that.

Let make an example: NiGHTS, a character that appeared in SR and SR:ZG, which have currently been released, has proven being able to use the Beginner Extreme Gear in both games. That means we can list NiGHTS as a constant user of the Beginnger in its infobox, without any notes. Then SFR comes out and it has the Beginner in it, but not NiGHTS. Now, you think that means NiGHTS is unable to use the Beginner in SFR and thus you mention that NiGHTS can only use the Beginner in SR and SR:ZG, but I deem that logic flawed. The list shows which characters can use the Beginner, but since NiGHTS did not appear in SFR can we cannot assume that NiGHTS cannot ride the Beginner, as NiGHTS does not appear in the game and proves it cannot be equipped with the Beginner. Therefore, we cannot prove that NiGHTS is unable to use the Beginner in SFR.

In other words, in all the games NiGHTS has appeared in, it has been able to use the Beginner, and thats all there is to it in the user section on the infobox. Instead, however, you make the assumption that NiGHTS cannot use the Beginner simply because NiGHTS was not in the game, with only that to back it up.

I guess our different viewpoints are due to me looking at this from in-universe (which in my experience is what those infoboxes focuses on), while you look at the gameplay. I hope you understand my viewpoint and we can settle this calmly.Ultrasonic9000 (talk) 10:03, June 1, 2013 (UTC)

Hey Orb, I just want to thank you for efforts on my behalf, honest, no hidden intentions behind these words. Your edits are really a great help, and I think that we can put our disbut behind us for a while until a better time. I am however, confused about something (i have no intention of criticizing you): are you sure that some gear parts requires that others are activated beforehanded? Because I have opserved that if the player collect the rings needed to activate the second gear before activating the first, they can activate the second. If I am wrong, I fear I have made some screw ups, and I'll porbably need help to fix it.Ultrasonic9000 (talk) 11:55, June 2, 2013 (UTC)

Thanks Orb. Then please keep an eye out for the gears with such parts, as I have accidently erased that info. Sorry.Ultrasonic9000 (talk) 12:13, June 2, 2013 (UTC)

Hello OrbAdventues. Since you have been able to fill out how many Rings and requirements the different Gear Parts for each Extreme Gear need, I hoped I could ask you of a request. I have looked the Extreme Gears for SR: ZG through, and I have located the last Extreme Gears without info on how many rings there are need to activate their Gear Parts etc. I therefore hope that you are able to fill out these gabs: I hope that you can help me with this, because I plan to format the gear part sections, and for that, I need all the info on these gear parts. If you can, I would be grateful, and I shall personally owe you a favor. Seriously, just name it.Ultrasonic9000 (talk) 11:35, June 11, 2013 (UTC)

Hello OrbAdventure. I have just finished making a list of Extreme Gear on Sonic Free Riders, and hoped you could could check it, and give it your seal of approval.Ultrasonic9000 (talk) 11:42, June 25, 2013 (UTC)

Free Riders online
Hello OrbAdentures, just wanted to tell you Sonic Free Riders works fine for me online. I've already played some online matches but my opponents were rather bad or nonexistent. I plan to play the game rather frequently until Saturday, so just stop by for a race or write to me if you like and have time. :) Vector T.C. (talk) 11:19, June 27, 2013 (UTC)

Re:Game template
Its a good start, but we are still experimenting with what kind of design the templates should have, and it is vital they all follow the same design. Take a look on at the bottom of my userpage, and see which designs we have come up with so far. At far as I know, Blue and I are going with the first one, you know the one different from the first Blue presented.Ultrasonic9000 (talk) 08:23, July 3, 2013 (UTC)

Me and Blue went over it yesterday, but before he forman Secret Rings Info, I asked him that we presented the new template to hear what people had to say. So its not like Blue wouldn't format it, I just asked him wait a little.Ultrasonic9000 (talk) 08:48, July 3, 2013 (UTC)

Don't know, don't care anymore. Because everything I say apparently has no influence whatsoever, or is just ignored. I try to come up with improvements, but apparently, other prefer look over order and refuse changes to small details.Ultrasonic9000 (talk) 23:53, July 3, 2013 (UTC)

Yeah I'm alright, SNN has just been angering me lately, so I'm taking a big hiatus. If you want you can add me on skype which is under the same name as my Wikia name. 17:44, July 3, 2013 (UTC)

Re:Navbox
It actually looks pretty cool. I actually haven't played Sonic Heroes, so I can't tell if all appropriate information is on the template. But I do think that in order to fit in with the suggested design, you should add a colored border around it. That way, it would look a bit less awkward and the edges of the navbox would be easier to distinguish (think of it as a visual aid for your reader). (PS: Congratulations on reaching 1000 edits!) -- Shadowunleashed13 (talk) 02:07, July 4, 2013 (UTC)

Personally, I love that sky blue. I mean, it looks so awesome. I don't think it matters what color you use for the borders, as long as you follow the design. -- Shadowunleashed13 (talk) 14:28, July 5, 2013 (UTC)

Guess so. My P.E. teacher lived, by the way. It's a cool story too. He normally got the train in the morning to go to where he worked. But, on 7/7 2005, he decided to sleep in a little later and had to get a different train. Now get this: his usual train was the one that got bombed!

Re:Gear Parts
Yeah, I was in an edit war and I am not proud of it. Kila was just not willing to communicate no mater what I did, so I had to do something to keep Kila from spreading when I thought (s)he did something wrong.

Regarding the gear parts, I can see the logic in that. When I first set up that order, in was trying to unify sections for better order, and Gear Part and stats just seemed like the best candidates to be under a section in order to keep all the info ready. Still, I see what you are tying to do, and I am willing to let you give it a shot. I planned to do that myslef one day, but you have the right to try it and know more about it.Ultrasonic9000 (talk) 12:03, July 10, 2013 (UTC)

Gear Parts
Thanks. However, I cannot get all the icons, and those I can get are tedious to get. So dont get your hopes up too much.Ultrasonic9000 (talk) 11:36, July 11, 2013 (UTC)

Hello Orb, I need some help. This icon here:



I am not sure which Gear Part it represents. My sources says it is the GP Gauge up, but I am not sure. Do you know which gear part it is?.Ultrasonic9000 (talk) 22:37, July 11, 2013 (UTC)

Re: Template:Clear
It clears out the page on both sides, meaning that everything above the template is completely separated from everything below. Most useful for ensuring that pictures or tables don't go too far below text so that the page looks ugly and out of order. -- Supermorff (talk) 17:58, July 12, 2013 (UTC)

"Why don't you just accept that, lie and down die!?" and "Why don't you just accept that? Lie down and die!" are different in tone.

"Untitled" images
Hey, Mystic Orb. I've noticed that you recently uploaded a ton of Sonic X screenshots. While this is great, you should probably try and give them more appropriate names next time. All of the images uploaded started with "Untitled", and this makes it much more difficult to use them on other articles if one wished to. It also makes them much more difficult to keep track of in general. While there is no "rule" against this, it just helps others if you give them a more specific name. Please remember this for future reference. Thanks for uploading the screenshots! -- 20:00, July 22, 2013 (UTC)

Images
Hey, Orb. I saw your recent contributions with the Sonic Heroes screenies and all and I really appreciate it, Good Work. However the images are far too low quality and are too blurry. I might have to delete them and re-upload HQ versions. -- Quack Like you mean itundefined  10:53, August 2, 2013 (UTC)

So sorry, amigo. I do have the official copy in my PC, so I can upload Hi-Res versions. -- Quack Like you mean itundefined  10:59, August 2, 2013 (UTC)

Overstock of Administrative Staff was the main reason why I resigned from the position. That, and I felt pretty useless (which kind of coincides with the general reason). 11:31, August 2, 2013 (UTC)

We don't even need so many active Administrators to begin with. Some people treat the position like it's the Holy Grail, whereas all it really does is grant a few additional rights. No more, no less. If I'm honest, I'd rather see people run for Rollback and stop there for the time being. 13:11, August 2, 2013 (UTC)

Oh, it's possible. -- Quack Like you mean itundefined  16:19, August 2, 2013 (UTC)

RE:Chili or Chilli
If it is according to the article Chili Dog, then it would be like "Chili Dog". However, if it is according to Sonic Unleashed, it should written like how it is written in the game. In terms of which name takes priority, it should be according to the game, if it is game chili dogs we are talking about.Ultrasonic9000 (talk) 23:34, August 2, 2013 (UTC)

Template:Main
You use Template:Main at the top of sections where the section is covered more fully on another page. It doesn't look as though there is such a section relating to Bobsled racing on the Bobsled page. It would be better to just link to the Bobsled Race page, e.g. by adding a sentence saying "Bobsleds are used in the 2P minigame Bobsled Race."

That said, in future, the way to use the template is:

It can handle more links or links with different labels, but at its simplest this is how you use it. -- Supermorff (talk) 07:27, August 3, 2013 (UTC)

Re:Template
Personally, I would keep them seperated. I think it would mix up info if they were merged. Still, that is just how I think it should be like.Ultrasonic9000 (talk) 14:24, August 3, 2013 (UTC)

Sorry about the wait. I was at camp, so I couldn't be online to answer your question. I think it's necessary to have the voice actors on the Game Templates. It helps the reader find the voice actors of the specific game they're looking for. 14:35, August 5, 2013 (UTC)

Re:The Roboticizer in Sonic CD
Hey there Mystic Orb, you are not the only one, who actually ask about that, as we did few days ago have discussion about it with Ultra on the chat. While I admit it, both of us have hard time to get proper conclusion for the subject, because it is actually pretty double-barreled case.

But about the title "Eggman's machine"...first of all, it is mentioned at Sonic CD page of The Green Hill Zone site, which can possibly be the japanese name for the object, while it is also mentioned same way at Sonic Retro. Here's the page from the Japanese manual PC version (see the picture with ? on it), where it is only time mentioned. - MarioSonic (talk) 12:29, August 7, 2013 (UTC)
