Regarding RAGE

Contributing Messages: 1

Don't ask me where I went, don't ask me what happened, but I'm back.
I have applied the 'Unfinished pages' category to RAGE and removed my suggested story option names as per your request. Contact me and we will discuss details regarding the story's layout and plot. You can message me via my username's discussion tab or RAGE's discussion tab.
See you soon!

Regarding help section

Contributing Messages: 1

I have no objections to you adding a help wanted section if you're looking for help. I hope adding one helps you get the help you're looking for. --Platypus 11:38, 21 June 2018 (UTC)

Warnings/Comments by Platypus

Please pay attention to what you are doing. If you accidentally replace an entire index with a listing for just your story, undo your editing! --Platypus 03:06, 10 November 2017 (UTC)

Remember, you can always use the 'History' tab to look back at how things were before you edited. I've put back the code you deleted from the Quiz section.

There's never been a need for an All Quizzes page before, but if you're growing the number of quizzes, I have no objections to creating one. --Platypus 11:27, 16 April 2018 (UTC)

Everyone makes mistakes. No big deal. It's usually easy to correct mistakes on a wiki, and I'd rather have a hundred users making the occasional honest mistake than have even one deliberate vandal trying to trash the site.

As a sysop, I can give a page protected status so no one else can edit it, but if I protect a page for you, you won't be able to edit it either. I can't put protection on a page with an exception for the author.

I'll take a look at School Wars, but I can't promise anything. As you noted, I am very busy. --Platypus 12:05, 9 May 2018 (UTC)

I appreciate any help you can provide. Some newbies just need a gentle nudge in the right direction, but others are quite creative in their ability to fuck things up. --Platypus 20:16, 20 May 2018 (UTC)

Platypus' Talk

Even for a vandal, this one's vandalism was weird. He's perma-blocked and hopefully won't be back. --Platypus 00:36, 1 July 2018 (UTC)

The site shouldn't mistake your internal links for external links unless you type out the whole entire URL. I've seen people do that, but the links I'm seeing in Library's Secret shouldn't be triggering anything. --Platypus 15:15, 1 July 2018 (UTC)

Okay, I get what you were trying to do. I'm not sure if there's a way to link to a category page without using an external link. In Rampage's case, the link was put in back in 2011, which might be before the protections against link spammers got so strict. --Platypus 18:46, 1 July 2018 (UTC)

I was promoted to sysop because I alerted the site owner, RobKohr, to the attacks by a horde of vandals calling themselves the Roman Empire. RobKohr isn't very active on this site, but I was able to track him to the main Editthis site to request help. He promoted me and another user who was also very active back then, Fruitbat, to sysops, and we eventually won the war with the Romans. Fruitbat has since dropped out of sight, so I'm the only active sysop. --Platypus 13:25, 2 July 2018 (UTC)

You raise some good questions, but the only one I can answer is the one about the weapon I used to defeat the Roman Empire. I used a ban-hammer. Questions about who would succeed me when I leave the site (I’m not immortal) can only be answered by RobKohr, and he’s not easy to reach. I’ve asked for power to bypass the pédo block so I can scrub the site clean of longstanding underage sex stories, and I’ve only been met by silence.

As for Freespeech, he hasn’t posted since April. He may have quit the site rather than deal with the censorship. --Platypus 12:08, 3 July 2018 (UTC)

I'm glad you're feeling inspired. To be honest, I'd quite forgotten about Bunni. Oddly enough, the story you discovered, Crusader, was created by Fruitbat, the other sysop who was promoted alongside me during the Roman Empire attacks. --Platypus 22:53, 5 July 2018 (UTC)

Nobody's addressed the Featured Story concept in quite some time, so if you'd like to take it over, be my guest. --Platypus 03:19, 8 July 2018 (UTC)

Good catch on Ck's Main Page vandalism. I suspect, given his poor grasp on language and his short fuse, that he might be a five-year-old himself. Hopefully blocking him will be sufficient to get rid of him.

As for inspiration... It comes when it comes. You've clearly already got some ideas to run with. Bicycling into the ocean might be a fun choice. You could find yourself breathing underwater and follow a fish to Atlantis, or encounter an upside down pirate ship working the underside of the ocean. --Platypus 11:57, 12 July 2018 (UTC)

I don't know what that admin's been smoking, but whatever it is, avoid sampling it yourself. He sounds like he's done some damage to his brain.

Nothing much happening around here. There is a new user *Milk Tea* who's expressed interest in collaborating. Since you've been looking for a collaborator, you might want to introduce yourself. --Platypus 15:47, 12 August 2018 (UTC)

I hope that admin puts as much effort into writing stories as he puts into writing insults. --Platypus 17:46, 13 August 2018 (UTC)

This site did have the "pedo-bear seal of approval" for quite some time, so if he hasn't visited recently, I can understand him associating us with NAMBLA. Much has been done to cleanse the site of underage sex, so that's his only reason for not coming here, he might want to give this site another look.

Feel free to quote me if you think doing so might help your case. --Platypus 00:33, 14 August 2018 (UTC)

Regarding stories

Contributing Messages: 2

Hey! Adam02oc here. I decided to pop in on this website, since I've figured it's been so long since I've used it. I heard you requesting help on certain stories of yours. Message me back if the offer is still up and we can work something out, if you'd like.
Cheers,
Adam
Nice one! I have a few recommendations for your story that can be found on RAGE's discussion tab. For future simplicity, we should also use that page to trade any ideas or questions we may have. See you soon!
