Forum:The Links are back

The Link bullets on the forums are back, whose fault is it this time? Twilightwizard0309 19:00, 6 August 2009 (UTC)
 * I been pointing them out for a while nopw. No one seems to care.--Mystic Monkey 19:08, 6 August 2009 (UTC)

I think it's because, other than being an eyesore, they don't really cause any trouble.--Kagi mizu -Seeya  'round ~ 19:11, 6 August 2009 (UTC)
 * I know what to replace them with... if I could.--Mystic Monkey 19:12, 6 August 2009 (UTC)

I understand that they are an odd thing to have at a Sonic wiki but they are not a eyesore, come on legend of zelda rocks

 * But if I wanted Zelda, I'd go to a Zelda Wiki.--Mystic Monkey 00:32, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

Yeah, they're fine on the Zelda Wiki, but we need a Sonic or Spindash or other Sonic related sprites for the Sonic Wiki.--Kagi mizu -Seeya  'round ~ 00:43, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

Then how about a way to replace those little green elves then?--Mystic Monkey 08:08, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

No noe knows how to, thats the damn point!

Zelda CDi references asside, I can look around the Wiki for forum related sites, if "mah boi" is there because of a template like feature then if I could find it I can correct it, perhaps replace it with a Sonic sprite.--<font color="00 FF 7F">Mystic Monkey 23:46, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

Correction, it's FireWater, not WaterFire. Anyway, if the sprites are there cause of hacking, maybe we could hack it again, and put a Sonic related sprite.--<font color="#0000FF">Kagi <font color="#FF0000">mizu -<font color="#008000">Seeya <font color="#FFA500"> 'round ~ 23:49, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

Good news! I think I can do something about it! I found the page provide that provides interface text for this software, though it looks complicated and not much of a scripter, I think I know what is the cause of the little elves and can fix this! However I need someone to upload a sprite or something, perhaps a spinning ring or something. I think I know what I am doing so not 100% sure it will work.--<font color="00 FF 7F">Mystic Monkey 23:58, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

Yeah thats what I said right, oh sorry. well it could have been WaterFire if water was fire and fire was water. anyways Mystic give me the link to it

-- Noname The Hero   ( Hero Talk )</Small>  What you see is what you get, just a guy who loves adventure  00:02, 8 August 2009 (UTC)

What about a normal Sonic sprite? Or a spindash sprite? Or maybe even a Chaos Emerald sprite! Just giving ideas. Also, 'Kagi' is japanese for Fire, and 'Mizu' is japanese for Water.--<font color="#0000FF">Kagi <font color="#FF0000">mizu -<font color="#008000">Seeya <font color="#FFA500"> 'round ~ 00:05, 8 August 2009 (UTC)

Does it matter which? I can probably install it myself. The URL on line 38 on this page.--<font color="00 FF 7F">Mystic Monkey 00:06, 8 August 2009 (UTC)

I have tons of sprite sheets I can rip sprites from, but what should we replace with? Let's ask the community!(I made this poll)-- Milo the  echidna  00:07, 8 August 2009 (UTC)

It doesint matter we cant edit it, its blocked only admins can edit it or unblock it

An animated picture of a spinning ring!--<font color="00 FF 7F">Mystic Monkey 00:09, 8 August 2009 (UTC)

Once we find out which one is most popular we can post another poll if they want moving or still. Anybody have a program to make a GIF???-- Milo the  echidna  00:12, 8 August 2009 (UTC)

I know plenty of sites with animated gifs that I can just save and upload here.--<font color="00 FF 7F">Mystic Monkey 00:14, 8 August 2009 (UTC)

Okay. Let's leave this quiz open up to August 15th for a final vote. Then either you, me , or somebody else can create and/or write the code into the forums to fix this problem. YAY!!! This issue will be good for my resume!-- Milo the  echidna  00:17, 8 August 2009 (UTC)

It doesint matter we cant edit it, its blocked only admins can edit it or unblock it but I have found the data code we need to alter .forumlist td.forum_title a.forum_new { font-weight: bold; background: url(/images/4/4e/Forum_new.gif) center left no-repeat; padding-left: 20px; -- Noname The Hero   ( Hero Talk )</Small>  What you see is what you get, just a guy who loves adventure  00:20, 8 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Hello!--<font color="00 FF 7F">Mystic Monkey 00:21, 8 August 2009 (UTC)

I can edit it. SLJ left me Sysop and Head of Forums and even though I will be editing a page which is used to provide interface text for the software, it will be on my neck of the woods and believe best to make it less Zelda and more Sonic. And even though I prefer to go along with spinning ring, Milo's got a good point to ask what everyone else wants instead for it.--<font color="00 FF 7F">Mystic Monkey 00:41, 8 August 2009 (UTC)

Thank you. It's not just us that are using forums. And I knew only people like Mystic could do it. Good eye for codes, Mystic!-- Milo the  echidna  00:55, 8 August 2009 (UTC)

Thanks, been meaning to take up C++ myself. Anyway I still won't touch anything til the votes are counted.--<font color="00 FF 7F">Mystic Monkey 00:58, 8 August 2009 (UTC)

Okay so let me get this straight Wikia uses C++ HTML Coding?-- Milo the  echidna  15:30, 8 August 2009 (UTC)
 * No, it goes by MediaWiki. C++ is MUCH more hard.--<font color="00 FF 7F">Mystic Monkey 15:33, 8 August 2009 (UTC)

Well then, now that I know what it is, it's time to learn more codes. Dang it launchballer, how did you know how to make that odd template?! I wish I knew more codes to do that...-- Milo the  echidna  20:29, 8 August 2009 (UTC)
 * It looks easy to change Link into something else for me.--<font color="00 FF 7F">Mystic Monkey 21:09, 8 August 2009 (UTC)

Chaos Emerald's winnin'-- Milo the  echidna  03:02, 12 August 2009 (UTC)

Actually Shadow is winning. I prefer instead of actual faces or sprites, to go with very simple symbols, like Sonic's logo from Smash Bro's if Sonic wins.--<font color="00 FF 7F">Mystic Monkey 12:48, 12 August 2009 (UTC)

Nvm then. GO SHADOW!!! Bye the way I saw Sonicrox14's talk page had a link to a website to a bunch of sprite animations (I think the link # was 12)-- Milo the  echidna  03:22, 13 August 2009 (UTC)

I still think a ring would be better since when people can check forums, the ring will be gone as if they collected it. But also it's a neutral and widely reconised Sonic icon.--<font color="00 FF 7F">Mystic Monkey 18:33, 13 August 2009 (UTC)

How did Shadow get so many votes, so fast?
 * If you feel trickery a foot, your not the only one. Not sure how to proove it though.--<font color="00 FF 7F">Mystic Monkey 23:34, 13 August 2009 (UTC)

Mystic's right about not being able to prove anything. The polls, as i have learned, recognizes IP adresses and user's to where it will only allow you to vote once. As I can guess, and read throughout many articles, talkpages, etc. there are many shadow fans-- Milo the  echidna  01:28, 14 August 2009 (UTC)

But how is it possible that like, 6 Shadow supporters just happened to vote at the same time? Because a couple days ago, Shadow only had about 3 votes. Now look at it.

I think Staff, like mods, admins and such may have power to grant multiple votes. Dunno why, I only voted for Rings once and only once. Whoevers tipping the votes would make this unfair but can't really proove it. I say a do over only with symbols and icons than faces.--<font color="00 FF 7F">Mystic Monkey 11:55, 14 August 2009 (UTC)

I'm on it:

An admin suspected foul play on the previous poll, so dooever: What icon/symbol sprite should we replace Link with??? Sonic Tails Knuckles Shadow Amy Chao Omochao Ring Chaos emerald Please vote fairly!-- Milo the  echidna  18:26, 14 August 2009 (UTC)

I taken down the previous one to prevent confusion... but what if it's one-sided again?--<font color="00 FF 7F">Mystic Monkey 20:02, 14 August 2009 (UTC)

Then that means that there was nothing odd actually going on at all!-- Milo the  echidna  02:13, 17 August 2009 (UTC)
 * So whens closing date again?--<font color="00 FF 7F">Mystic Monkey 16:32, 18 August 2009 (UTC)


 * I'll say the 20th-- Milo the  echidna  16:51, 18 August 2009 (UTC)
