== Hi ==
Hi Cobold! I made a new game on Userpedia and you're in it. (I know you're not a member on Userpedia but I wanted you to know) {{User:Toadette 4evur/sig}}
:What will it have me doing? - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 15:19, 12 June 2008 (EDT)
::You're one of the main characters. You're a hero in it. {{User:Toadette 4evur/sig}}
:::Uh, but what exactly am I doing? Not that I would really care. =P - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 15:59, 13 June 2008 (EDT)
::::It's an RPG, and you're one of the heroes. What do most wiki-related RPG heroes do? Fight spammers and trolls. :) {{User:Toadette 4evur/sig}}
::::I wouldn't know what they do. - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 16:09, 13 June 2008 (EDT)

== Comment ==

Only for asking, but there will be a sysop promotion soon? {{User:Coincollector/sig}}
:That is actually a very good question. I still have to consider someone who would fit for the post. Our most requested candidate, Stooben Rooben, went on indefinite hiatus, so I'm here with rather empty hands. - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 15:58, 13 June 2008 (EDT)

Could I be part of the sysophood? {{User:Coincollector/sig}} If I cannot be yet, understood.
:Who knows? I don't...yet. =P But maybe I will in a few days. - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 14:48, 16 June 2008 (EDT)
::Actually, there was quite a few suggestions made by the Sysop staff to promote you, CC. --[[User:Blitzwing|Blitzwing]] 14:51, 16 June 2008 (EDT)
:::Who? Where? When? I guess I'm not up to date about the personal chat here. - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 14:54, 16 June 2008 (EDT)
::::There is a "Sysop Only" Board on the forum. Coincollector was mentioned quite a few times in there. --[[User:Blitzwing|Blitzwing]] 15:08, 16 June 2008 (EDT)
:::I see. I wouldn't know, I haven't even got an account on the forum, and I'm not planning to get one. - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 15:11, 16 June 2008 (EDT)

I See, although I ain't a member from the forums, so I don't really know what's happening behind the scenes. {{User:Coincollector/sig}} "I wished for deleting the junk images from the wiki, because the bin is full and the waste is growin'"

== Super Mario RPG ==
SMRPG was rated for the PAL regions, so can post (EU) TBA and (AU) TBA on the article? {{User:Toadette 4evur/sig}}
:ZOMGYAYZ?! I NEED ZIS GAME! Would also be good to link a source for the rating. - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 16:29, 13 June 2008 (EDT)
::[http://www.smrpglegacy.com Here's the site] I found it on. I'll add it on the article now. {{User:Toadette 4evur/sig}}
:::Ah, the good ol' site with credibility issues. But that's their problem, not ours. We can add this as a valid reference. I still don't get how they are doing this, the original version didn't have European translations, and games which heavily rely on text (e.g. Paper Mario, but not SMB) get localized. - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 16:35, 13 June 2008 (EDT)
::::I read somewhere that a PAL version was being made, but was never released. {{User:Toadette 4evur/sig}}
::::That would be cool, it would have translations fitting to the time of creation. - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 16:40, 13 June 2008 (EDT)
:::::Well congrats to you. :) I think NOA is just gonna make it show up one day without any word of it (seeing as they are very secretive and the fact that they hate us). I'm checking the Wii Shop Channel every update for that reason. {{User:Toadette 4evur/sig}}

Uhhhhhh... I've been lazy, sorry. Haven't played MKWii in a while. ^^; And I just pre-ordered Super Smash Bros. Brawl today. {{User:Pokemon DP/sig}}

== Demotion ==

Since RAP and Porplemontage won't do it, can you PLEASE remove my Sysop powers? I'm so sick of being a Sysop now, it's become so damn annoying. Please demote me. {{User:Pokemon DP/sig}}

Never mind, Steve already did it. {{User:Pokemon DP/sig}}

No one said I was retiring. I was just resigning. I'm still here, and with Brawl's release next week, I'll be editing a bit more. ;) {{User:Pokemon DP/sig}}

:Yeah, I see... :[ --{{User:Coincollector/sig}} 16:55, 21 June 2008 (EDT) "I'll keep this in mind"

== Normal Hammer ==
Normal Hammer is redirected to Hammer now, but "Normal Hammer" is still on the item page. Should we keep it there or remove it? {{User:Toadette 4evur/sig}}
:What item page? [[Items]]? I think redirects are allowed there. - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 14:21, 22 June 2008 (EDT)
::'K. {{User:Toadette 4evur/sig}}

== [[Mario Party]] article ==
On the article stated in the header, there is and image that is cutting into the info box. I've tried fixing it, but have failed every time. Do you know what to do? {{User:Toadette 4evur/sig}}
:I can't help you because I have blocked any advert images. - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 16:26, 22 June 2008 (EDT)
:Or maybe I misunderstood. I tried fixing something with that gallery. - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 16:30, 22 June 2008 (EDT)
::Thanks. :) {{User:Toadette 4evur/sig}}

==Hey==
Would you mind looking at my Nominated Article just click the link on my sig!{{user:theused/sig}}

The timer reached "0" at around 12AM, and the shops here don't hold midnight releases. I'm awake now at 8:22AM, but now I have to wait for them to call me. :P {{User:Pokemon DP/sig}}

== Brawl ==

Have you played Brawl?{{User:Fg/sig}}
:Yes. - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 08:20, 28 June 2008 (EDT)

== Brawl Central ==

Yay! Now we're friends on Brawl Central! -[[user:Moonshine|Moonshine]]
:Yay. I don't really get the use of friend lists but if you like it, no problem. (I don't get the use of many other things though. :P) - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 12:44, 30 June 2008 (EDT)

== Guten Tag ==

Weißt du, was dieser sagt? Ich bin so dumm! Ich bin nicht FTW! Ich saugen und wird wahrscheinlich Anfang des Zweiten Weltkriegs, aber es spielt keine Rolle, weil keiner von euch hören :) {{user:bigger sid/sig|Jetzt gehen hier}}
:Translating suck with "saugen" in this context is something only Google would do. - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 14:45, 1 July 2008 (EDT)

== [[User:Yoshi Speedstar]] ==
The user in the header is a sockpuppet of a user named [[User:Blue Koop]], who was a sockpuppet of a spammer named [[User:The Goomba]]. He ''did'', however, write an [[User:Yoshi Speedstar/Sorry|apology]], but I wanted to know what you think of this. {{User:Toadette 4evur/sig}}
:They caught my eye earlier but I think there was an explanation back then. - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 16:27, 4 July 2008 (EDT)
::Was the explanation "The Goomba is Blue Koop's brother"? {{User:Toadette 4evur/sig}} Just wondering.
:::Something like that, I can hardly remember. - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 04:10, 5 July 2008 (EDT)
::::Yeah, you might wanna look [[User:Blue Koop|here]] then. {{User:Toadette 4evur/sig}}

== Wait... hold up... ==

Am I seeing that you're a Princess Peach enthusiast as well? If so, I'm glad that you're also on the scene to get the truth in terms of Peach (and Daisy too). Biggest aggravation ever thanks to those MK: DD and MK Wii guides. --[[User:MeritC|M. C. - &quot;Mario Gals&quot; Enthusiast!]] 16:06, 9 July 2008 (EDT)
:"Enthusiast" would go a little too far. She's alright as a character and I play her in some more recent games. I chose the article to improve, but I didn't really get far and most of the work is done by our community, which is some great work and some really unneeded wars about little words in uninteresting guides. I don't see who can get so much excited about this.
:As long as nobody accepts the compromise, I'm carefully watching the article. It's my job to prevent flame and edit wars. I don't think I really contributed much to prevent wars in this case, I'm currently a bit inactive because of Brawl's release - I need to play the games in order to edit articles, after all. ;) - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 16:13, 9 July 2008 (EDT)

== Troll ==

What troll was it when that time a troll occassionally came by and vandalized your talk page? Was the ip matched the same as Max2?{{User:Fg/sig}}
:His IP matched with AndreZoio. - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 06:47, 13 July 2008 (EDT)

there's some vandal mucking up the [[Slime]] page, and i dont know how to fix it. [[User:Mrsdaisyluigi|Mrsdaisyluigi]] 11:08, 14 July 2008 (EDT) P.S its the slime character for itacki street ds.
:What exactly is vandalized on that page? - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 11:13, 14 July 2008 (EDT)

if you look at [[Slime (Dragon Quest)|this page]] you will notice it...... alot. [[User:Mrsdaisyluigi|Mrsdaisyluigi]] 11:34, 14 July 2008 (EDT)
:You linked to the wrong page. I got it now. The vandal thought he would prevent us from deleting it this way. Well, he thought wrong. Everything's up again. - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 11:49, 14 July 2008 (EDT)

Brill. [[User:Mrsdaisyluigi|Mrsdaisyluigi]] 11:52, 14 July 2008 (EDT)

== Favor ==

Yo Cobold, could you see the [[DK Summit]] article and see the foreign names section? looks like there's a prolem with this template (or the article has a problem?) {{User:Coincollector/sig}} I see some problems with the templates, and I don't know how to solve the problem now...
:I've seen many templates problems today, they were mentioned on the Main Page talk. If you look at the top of my talk page, the part of pipe also isn't displaying. This seems to be a wiki-related problem, we will have to consult Steve. - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 11:27, 14 July 2008 (EDT)
<s>I guess the wiki needs an update by now, don't you think? :P {{User:Coincollector/sig}} "Steve-o where are thou?"</s>
:OK donkey Cobold, Wayoshi fixed the problem :) now, your template is back.{{User:Coincollector/sig}}

== Toadsworth: Uhhm ==
Peach's voice actor was Jen Taylor ever since the N64 days. Although many Mario characters have had voice changes in the far past and just recent;y, that does not lead me to agree with saying Peach's va changes often. Regardless, mentioning a characters current va in the opening is no issue. I myself know the Peach page is filled with tons of crappy and overdone information, but I don't see a problem with this sentence. [[User:ForeverDaisy09|FD09]]

Sorry, but: Don't talk about something you don't know enough about. Jen Taylor portrayed Peach until the end of the GameCube era.[[User:ForeverDaisy09|FD09]]
:Why is there a "Toadsworth" in the headline of this section? - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 13:39, 17 July 2008 (EDT)

==Just so you know:==

The Troll that recently attacked has the '''exact same ip''' as Wayoshi. Deal appropriately with him. Of course, there's a chance that it may be a [http://userpedia.scribblewiki.com/Poplers chat troll] impersonating him... But Still. --[[User:Blitzwing|Blitzwing]] 13:19, 17 July 2008 (EDT)
:Wayoshi's IP changes frequently, but it's still good to know. - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 13:26, 17 July 2008 (EDT)

Speaking of it... Where exactly can I find out about users' IPs? I guess that question is a bit dumb for a sysop, but I have really no idea. {{User:Time Q/sig}} 13:30, 17 July 2008 (EDT)
:Go to the [[Special:Specialpages|special pages list]] and scroll down to the very bottom. There is a list of restricted special pages there. The IP check function is at "Check user". - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 13:32, 17 July 2008 (EDT)
::Ah, good to know. Thanks. {{User:Time Q/sig}} 13:48, 17 July 2008 (EDT)

The only thing I can fathom is that I've been at a college for summer camp for three weeks, and the IP domain or even the exact IP is the same all-around. :X {{User:Wayoshi/sig}} 16:42, 17 July 2008 (EDT)
:Absolutely not, I use the home comp (the IP that starts with 66) almost everyday now. {{User:Wayoshi/sig}} 17:22, 17 July 2008 (EDT)

== comic ==

do you want to cameo in my comic i want to put all the sysops in it {{User:Hemu/sig}} 15:17, 18 July 2008 (EDT)
:I'm not even aware that I have sprites. Create what you want as long as I don't have to watch it. I'm not interested in all of this comic business at all. - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 15:20, 18 July 2008 (EDT)

== Sorry about that... ==

Just letting you know that I'm now aware of the reminder you put on my talk page.--{{User:Philibuster Beetle/sig}} 19:06, 19 July 2008 (EDT)

Thanks for changing my name! {{User:Palkia47/sig}}

== Re: Awards Tourneys ==

*Knife said I was wrong about the limits, so I guess it's as many as we can get...I have a feeling not everyone will make, so if we end up with 16 that's great.
*The MKWii tourney will start at aboutt 2-3p EDT (UTC -5), making it 9-10p for you, still on August 8th. Depending on when we start it may go past 11p. When you get your individual round matchups for Brawl you can talk to your opponent for a good time.

{{User:Wayoshi/sig}} 18:14, 22 July 2008 (EDT)

Ask Knife, he set up Brawl, I was more involved in MKWii. {{User:Wayoshi/sig}} 10:43, 24 July 2008 (EDT)

==Proposal for Promotion==

Thank you for removing that proposal. I found it ridiculous for it to even be there, but I didn't know if I had the authority to remove it. {{User:Stooben Rooben/sig}} 18:22, 26 July 2008 (EDT)
:No problem. I thought it was even in the rulebook somewhere that proposals like that are not allowed. I can't find it now however, maybe we should add it somewhere to the Proposals page. - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 18:24, 26 July 2008 (EDT)
::I think that would be a good idea. {{User:Stooben Rooben/sig}} 18:27, 26 July 2008 (EDT)

==Brawl==
I saw your message on [[User Talk:Knife#Brawl_Tourney|Knife's page]] and it's going to be a Stock with Time Limit '''On''' since the match could last a very long time, and I guess its also because of what is stated in the rules too :P. {{User:Super-Yoshi/sig}}
:Well but what time limit will it be? - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 12:40, 30 July 2008 (EDT)

Actually, I canceled the time limit rule. I forgot to edit that rule. I'll fix it.{{User:Knife/sig}} 18:30, 2 August 2008 (EDT)

==Just Wondering==

I know you probably hear this question a lot, but do you know if there will be any promotions soon? {{User:Stooben Rooben/sig}} 16:03, 1 August 2008 (EDT)
:Yes I do hear that often. Considering the last was some time ago, it may indeed not be far away. - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 16:18, 1 August 2008 (EDT)
::I figured you did. Thanks for answering. :) {{User:Stooben Rooben/sig}} 16:21, 1 August 2008 (EDT)

== Hey Coobold ==

Do you like to watch mario cartoons.{{user:Fg/sig}}
:No. I haven't watched one and they don't seem to appeal to me in the first place. - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 16:50, 10 August 2008 (EDT)

== Cobold! Long time, no see ==

Cobold, what's up? Congrats on your bureacracy. I heard you have Brawl, what's your Brawl Code? Mine is 2063-1004-9695  --{{User:Aipom/sig|I'm back, hopefully}}--
:Hello there. My Brawl FC is 2492-5580-4756, but are you living far away from Germany? I have a bad lag when playing over to California or similar regions. - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 16:41, 11 August 2008 (EDT)

==Sockpuppets==
Cobold, you may have noticed that many sockpuppets: The Wiki Goomba, The Baby Goomba, The F****** Goomba, The Goomboss, The Goombella, The Goomba Super Fast, The Tight Goomba, and The Golden Goomba That Is Not Silver have all appeared as new users on the Wiki and are ALL spamming. You might want to block all of them or at least all of them except one. {{User:Glitchman/sig}} 11:21, 13 August 2008 (EDT)

==Super Smash Bros. Nomination Page==
You made an oppose for [[MarioWiki:Featured Articles/N/Super Smash Bros.|the Nomination]], ao I did my best to fix anything that was wrong with the article, based on your oppose. I would appreciate it if you could cross out anything that has been fixed, just so that the article can meet standards. Thanks. {{User:Garlic Man/sig}}
:That's a bit formal for simply "I got rid of that". - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 16:53, 15 August 2008 (EDT)

==I'm Worried==

I'm particularly concerned with [[Talk:Main Page#Any At All|this]]. Saudy (or someone who has hacked into his account) has threatened to spam/vandalize the wiki if Paper Jorge does not retire. And now Fg has also threatened to spam on Paper Jorge's talk page. I'm not sure if I'm being overtly worried about this, but it does seem to be a problem that needs solving. {{User:Stooben Rooben/sig}} 19:10, 16 August 2008 (EDT)
:I agree. That's why I came to you. Wayoshi blocked him, so I think everything will be all right now. I agree about Fg too; after that many bans, you'd think he would have learned not to do things like that. o_o {{User:Stooben Rooben/sig}} 20:35, 17 August 2008 (EDT)

== sub-pages ==

all my sub-pages are listed on my userpege(except the ones i put up for deletion) --{{User:Hemu/sig}} 16:25, 18 August 2008 (EDT)

=={{User|YoshiAndMe10}}==
Hi Cobold. The above user [[User:Mariomaster10|has]] [[User:Bootsthemonkey10|several]] [[User:YoshiAndMe|accounts]] on this wiki, as he admits on his [[User:YoshiAndMe|user]] [[User:YoshiAndMe10|pages]]. Not sure what to do in his case. It appears he simply doesn't know about sockpuppetry being forbidden. But he also left votes on the [[MarioWiki:Proposals|Proposals]] page from his various accounts, and once even voted for the same option [[MarioWiki:Proposals#Use Cosmic Species Template|with two of his accounts]]. Is this a reason to block him? {{User:Time Q/sig}} 06:42, 22 August 2008 (EDT)
:I think a warning would be enough, and we'll see how he behaves in the future. The double votes should be removed, of course. - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 11:52, 22 August 2008 (EDT)

== other accounts ==

ya i got kinda messed up sorry bout the doubke accounts was just confused about the whole thing so just delete the double votes thx for the warning first{{unsigned|YoshiAndMe10}}

== Hello ==
Hi Cobold. It's been a while since we talked. How are you? {{User:Toadette 4evur/sig}}
:I'm fine, thanks. Though my activity is a little lower despite or maybe because it's holidays for me. - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 12:23, 23 August 2008 (EDT)
::That's cool. Super Mario RPG was released in the PAL regions yesterday, but it hasn't been released in North America yet. ;_; {{User:Toadette 4evur/sig}}
:::Yep, I noticed, and the first thing I did was ordering Wii Points and a Classic Controller. The PAL Virtual Console always has special events ("Hanabi festival") where games that where never released here are uploaded to the VC, that's why we got it. I don't think those exist in America though. :-/ - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 12:30, 23 August 2008 (EDT)
::::Nope, we don't have the Hanabi Festival here, though we should. I hope we get in Monday, but I doubt it because the group of meanies (known as Nintendo of America) won't let us have it. NoA hates us all. D: {{User:Toadette 4evur/sig}}
:::::Did I offend you? I'm sorry if I did...{{User:Toadette 4evur/sig}}
::::What? No. How would you have? - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 12:51, 23 August 2008 (EDT)
:::::With that "Nintendo hates us" thing. {{User:Toadette 4evur/sig}}
::::::Well, of course Nintendo hates us more for not releasing it here originally. :O :P - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 12:58, 23 August 2008 (EDT)
:::::::Well they're pretending it doesn't exist here. :O I'm serious. If you ask them about it they won't mention the game in their reply. {{User:Toadette 4evur/sig}}

== Mario Party Wiki ==

Hi Cobold. I saw on your list of games you said you own(ed) the first five Mario Parties and MP7. Im the administrator of Mario Party Wiki, a wiki devoted to Mario Party. We really need help improving our articles and building it up. Do you want to help? Tell me on my talk page if you do. [http://www.marioparty.wikia.com MP WIki] [[User:Count Caterpie|Count Caterpie]] 16:32, 30 August 2008 (EDT)

Oh, sorry about that Cobold. I could of sworn you owned those games. Thanks anyway - CC

==SMAS + SMW==
Hey Cobold, I saw you put that this game never released in the PAL region, but why does the picture say "Pal Version"? {{User:Super-Yoshi/sig}}
:Hm, strange. I've heard it from an internet source that it wasn't released here, I didn't check other sources though. Let me see. - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 15:03, 1 September 2008 (EDT)

== Spaghetti ==

Hey there, Cobold. Just wanted to tell you how kool your Mario character is on Userpedia. {{User:R.O.B 128/sig}}
:Well, uh, thanks. I don't know myself how it looks like. - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 13:36, 3 September 2008 (EDT)

You are welcome. Please check out my page. I've looked at yours and I rated it 5 stars. --[[User:R.O.B 128|R.O.B 128]] 10:31, 4 September 2008 (EDT)
