Diamond/Pearl
Let me know what kind of screenshots you want for the game (and which version you want them from, if that matters, I'll use Diamond if you don't specify one). I've recently downloaded the ROMs for both D and P (they run slower than heck, but hey, they work). I obviously won't be able to get screenshots from later in the game yet, but I can help out with the early stuff. Also, you should archive your talk page, it is getting pretty large. -- 09:51, 19 June 2007 (CDT)
 * You didn't ask, I just thought I'd be helpful. -- 23:34, 19 June 2007 (CDT)
 * Usually, the guide sections (like Twinleaf Town and whatnot). As for why not later in the game, I haven't began playing it yet :P. Just tell me whatever parts you think would help illustrate the strategy. -- 08:51, 20 June 2007 (CDT)

Congrats
Just to let you know, you're almost in the running for the coveted "more edits to your user page than edits to guides" award. NMH is the champ, but you're almost about to pass him.

Mmmm... my stats make me drool. --Notmyhandle (talk • contribs) 12:54, 23 June 2007 (CDT)

Offering help with Pokemon Mystery Dungeon item list
Whew, long title. I saw that you are adding to the item list and it looks like slow going. I would like to jump in and help you add to the bulk of the data. All I do is hoard items in the game so I have most of them in my storage for easy access to the information.

The placement of some of the seeds and orbs will be a bit odd how things are organised right now(damage and healing) so I may let you deal with figuring out where they go. For now I will just start adding Gummis and TMs to the list since they are absent.

Hopefully this will be ok. Since I am new to this whole wiki thing I am uncertain if there are any specific types of etiquette I should be following. This made swinging by and letting you know what my intent is sound like a good idea. --Zaiqukaj 06:59, 23 June 2007 (CDT)

Spel Chek™
Despite the somewhat humorous heading, the following is a serious suggestion (well, serious in the non-joking sense, not serious as in you should seriously follow it, it's completely up to you). My suggestion is that you get Firefox 2.0 (here). The browser comes with a built in spell checker, so you'll never misspell a word again (well, you CAN, it'll just underline it with a dotted red line). Just a suggestion :P (and if you're wondering where this completely random comment came from, you mentioned on your post to Zaiqukaj's talk page that you didn't know how to spell "etiquette" (you got it right, by the way), so I thought I'd drop by and tell you about the wonders of Spel Chek™!) -- 12:45, 23 June 2007 (CDT) PS-it is not really called Spel Chek™, I just like using that phrase ;-)
 * To answer your questions:
 * It is "free" in both the fact that it is open-source and that it costs squat to download it, use it, update it, add stuff onto it, create your own addons to it, reprogram it...
 * What security stuff are you referring to? It should work with them (its only a web browser), but you might have to configure your firewall to allow it access to the internet (duh). Check out the site from the link above to find other stuff out about it (namely the release notes, features, and privacy policy, as well as the EULA if you're interested in that sort of stuff).

 * Don't forget to add on addons, loads of them are great, adblock is meant to be excellent, the site looks a lot better, PNG's work properly and you've got tabs (Sooooo useful). Sadly my PC's giving me a bit of trouble with FF at the moment. Trust me, when you switch you will never want to go back. It's also a lot safer.--Rocky http://media.strategywiki.org/images/thumb/7/78/Rally-X_Rock.png/25px-Rally-X_Rock.png (Talk - Contributions) 13:03, 23 June 2007 (CDT)
 * Myth, It's   Free!!   , so are all the official add-ons (All the ones I had anyway :, you do not need to pay anything.--Rocky http://media.strategywiki.org/images/thumb/7/78/Rally-X_Rock.png/25px-Rally-X_Rock.png (Talk - Contributions) 13:12, 23 June 2007 (CDT)
 * I didn't mean to come across like that, sorry. Darned interweb.--Rocky http://media.strategywiki.org/images/thumb/7/78/Rally-X_Rock.png/25px-Rally-X_Rock.png (Talk - Contributions) 13:21, 23 June 2007 (CDT)

Uh Myth... if you looked at the first link I provided, you'd see the download button has "Free" right on it. Plus, you might want to check your talk page history so you can see my reply to the DP sparse issue (I'm not retyping it). I fixed it and told you how to for later on. -- 13:26, 23 June 2007 (CDT)

Your behavior
Honestly Myth, if what I said rattled you, then it had the intended effect. I was very careful not to use any inappropriate language when I left you that note. Out of every contributor to this site, you are the only one who consistently behaves in a childish manner. By that I mean, over-reacting to small issues that occur, making your problems other people's problems, and generally initiating threads or responding to them in a less than sensitive or tactful manner. It has nothing to do with how knowledgeable you are with the site, or how you write your guides. Your guide contributions, in fact, are the only thing that I honestly feel I can compliment you on. But your attitude and expressed maturity leaves a lot to be desired. This is purely my opinion, and in no way a reflection of the site's feelings as a whole. Sufficed to say, I have spoken with a few other members who agree. But you asked what I meant, so I felt obliged to tell you. Procyon (Talk) 13:30, 23 June 2007 (CDT)


 * I thought perhaps I should be more specific. The comment you left on Community Issues regarding the categorization of the Diamond and Pearl guide was, in my opinion, completely inappropriate.  If you disagreed with the rating, all you had to do was ask how to change it.  Instead, you threw the equivalent of a tantrum, insisting that you disagreed with the rating and everything short of demanding that it be changed.  There was no need to react to the rating in that manner, and it could have been handle much more politely simply by asking how to change the number.  In fact, you didn't even express a desire to learn how, you simply wanted someone to do it because you seemed insulted by the rating.  That is a specific example of what I'm talking about.  I don't always make the best decisions, and I make mistakes all the time.  But one thing I always try to do is be sensitive and thankful towards the people I'm requesting help from.  When I see someone else fail to do that, it irritates me tremendously.  Procyon (Talk) 13:37, 23 June 2007 (CDT)
 * Just to note almost everything on this site can be changed by anyone (content wise...you can't touch the skins or protected pages). If you are unsure how to do something, ask on the Staff lounge and someone would be glad to help.  Community issues is to discuss sitewide changes (ie. layout and policy).  Your contributions to the site have been great so far and I'm glad you have joined us.  -- Prod (Talk) 13:42, 23 June 2007 (CDT)
 * Myth, if you haven't identified the problem yet, it's just that you need to watch how you type. Like, anger and outbursts will get you nowhere but Proc and others' bad sides.  Anyways, just realize that we try to be very objective and "peaceful" here =)  --Notmyhandle (talk • contribs) 14:45, 23 June 2007 (CDT)
 * I think I've told you this before, but you're not the first. I've gone through a lot of the same criticism.  --Notmyhandle (talk • contribs) 16:37, 23 June 2007 (CDT)
 * Okay, seriously, this is getting a little silly. All I said was that Pokemon Diamond and Pearl should be moved out of the Sparse category and moved to Maturing or higher. Then I got criticized for it. And it should have stopped there. Could we please get off the subject? It got moved, I was criticized, okay, I'll live with it, and it's all OK. it seems like more than a few of us are getting edgy, so let's get off the topic and cool off a little bit. There, that was a mature and sensible statement. Myth 16:47, 23 June 2007 (CDT)

Myth, you will continue to see things the way that you do, regardless of what I or anyone else has to say to you, that much is clear. Trying to illustrate a problem to you is a waste of time (like your insistence that perhaps Firefox isn't free despite everyone telling you that it is). I am not out to get you. What I am for is the success of this site. You do bring out the worst in me, and that is an issue for myself to deal with. Procyon (Talk) 17:19, 23 June 2007 (CDT)
