Hmm

Now why would you do that? I'm confused. -- Roman Dog Bird 02:20, September 17, 2009 (UTC)

Hoss, you got one labyrinthine talk page, lemme tell ya. I just added under your apologies section, that I think it's funny what I added, and no more irreverent than those pictures. So from one douche to another, let's have a drink.

I responded already on my talk page, and I made one minor edit to your revert. Instead of being my usual douche nozzle self, I only changed one little thing instead of reverting back again. Are you okay with this? -- Roman Dog Bird 02:28, September 17, 2009 (UTC)

Peter O'Toole

Nice writing! It has to be formatted out and paragraphed and all that nonsense, of course. Why don't you put a construction tag on it so the powers-that-be don't huff it during the next hour or so. Good to meet you, you have me interested in reading more of your stuff now. Aleister in Chains 3:44 20 5 mmx

A minor masterpiece. Applause to you, mostly from Burt Reynolds, and a hope that you will format it into a shape where its more readable and able to accept pictures. Please put on the construction tag, we shouldn't lose this. Or would you mind if I played with the formatting? Would be glad to. Al des chains 4:16 20 5 MMX

In that case, since you're going for the Poop thing (and it has to be finished in a couple of days) you would have to put it on one of your user pages. If you having done that just hit the move button on top and type in User:FlameHorse/(then the page name) . Since you are doing the award thing nobody can help you edit or format. I'll be interested in seeing what you come up with! Please let me know when it's in good shape. Al des chains 4:29 20 5 MMX

Hi. I put the page into paragraphs, a few edits and links, and Roger Ebert as the sole entry in See also (just seems funny). Bruce Willis photo as an option, but you should have a couple photos on the page. Do you have an O'Toole photo, at the Oscars preferably. Maybe Maniac or Puppy can help with that. A fun article!

Moved your UnNews story

I moved your UnNews story here to your user space. You should always start your articles in your user space, work on it, and only publish it when it's finished. Check out my welcoming drivel below for tips and hints.

A couple of things about this article. The title is really too long; this sounds suspiciously like a vanity article.

Cheers! Rev. Zim_ulator (Talk) I am the dirt under your rollers 20:51, June 15, 2010 (UTC)

Welcome to UnNews

On your knees, worthy one! The Right Reverend Major Sir Zim_ulator blesses you. Your blessings are increasing exponentially. In the name of Sophia, the Church of Uncyclopedia and the Universal Church Triumphant of the Apathetic Agnostic, kneel and receive the melding of Zim's holy axe and your wetware. Now go write me a good UnNews article. Cheers! Rev. Zim_ulator (Talk) I am the dirt under your rollers 03:48, March 15, 2010 (UTC)

Reverend Zim_ulator says: "There are coffee cup stains on this copy, damnit! Now that's good UnJournalism."

Welcome to UnNews, FlameHorse, and thank you for contributing some crap, or otherwise attracting my attention. For a quick introduction about how you can write a decent or better UnNews article, please take a minute read our spiffy new Style Guide.

I am your humble servant (in your dreams), and if I may be of help to you, please leave me a note on my talk page.

Good things that can happen to you

---

You can win awards and prizes! You can become a better writer by subjecting your articles to the scrutiny of UnNews critique machine or UnCanninator shit article detection system. You can become a thorn in the side of Journalism as a whole. You can get promotions, ribbons, and free crockery! You can write stuff your mom would be ashamed to show her friends.

What happened to my article?

---

If you've submitted an article, and it's disappeared, I may have mercy-moved it to your user space. This means I've probably left a message on your talk page, likely in close proximity to this very message, explaining why.

Your article may have been tagged for ICU if it has significant problems meeting our criteria, or I may have deleted it because you did not register as a user.

Finally, maybe you just pissed me off. I mean, I know I'm a Roshi, and I'm supposed to be all "Zen" about everything, but I have bad days too, you know?

UnNews UnFunnies

At present, I create UnCartoons for UnNews all by my onesies, for better or worse. Now, I will never claim that I am a good cartoonist. Fortunately, the internet provides us a way to do all sorts of things simply and easily. I found Stripgenerator.com, a great site to create cartoons with a minimum of talent.

This document is an ongoing effort by me to enhance the obfuscation coefficient of Uncyclopedia; productive changes, and criticism are welcome. Cheers! The Right and Left Reverend Major Sir Rev. Zim_ulator (Talk) I am the dirt under your rollers 17:38, March 28, 2010 (UTC)

Rolex cartoon

Hello again. Why don't you create a user page, you've been here quite awhile now. I did a revert on the Rolex cartoon on the feature article, it mentions Rolex but has little to do with the storyline. Did you do more work on the O'Toole page? Thanks again, Aleister 17:52 18 9

Rolex cartoon

Hello again. Why don't you create a user page, you've been here quite awhile now. I did a revert on the Rolex cartoon on the feature article, it mentions Rolex but has little to do with the storyline. Did you do more work on the O'Toole page? Thanks again, Aleister 17:52 18 9

Why don't you ask an administrator to dig up your O'Toole page again. As I recall it was pretty good. You can create a user page by going to that, wait, I'll create one for you and you just go to it. It's like any other page, you just start a new one and it's your user page (link to the far left tab up above, two to the left of the "Edit" button. A Rolex cartoon may not work in the context of the page, esp. since it's a feature article. Large cartoons have to be totally relevant to the page and to the section they are sitting in, random doesn't work here even though you will see lots of random in many pages. I'll go put something on your user page, and you can erase it when you feel like playing with it. Or go right here {{user:FlameHorse]]. okay. Aleister 23:25 20 9

Nominated your pic

I laughed hard at the pic you made of Garfield on my Cunt page. I've nominated for feature here.---Maniac1075^{Complain Here} 05:12, March 7, 2012 (UTC)

Your question to Sockitude

"Thanks for moving my images into the category the right way. How do you do it?" Simple answer. Also, I noticed you've left comments on people's user pages instead of their talk-pages. User pages are for user shit. Talk pages are for talk.

Oh, and one last thing: you might think about getting a decent font, like the guy who did this Garfield comic: File:Garfield sex.png. I hate to be a nit-picker, but your fonts look like crap, and that impairs the "humor". I recommend anything on this page. ~ BB ~ (T) ~ Wed, Jun 27 '12 4:16 (UTC)

Thanks for the info. I use MS Paint to do Garfield edits. So gimme a break. I doubt the font will import into Paint. I chose the one closest to the right one. – Preceding unsigned comment added by FlameHorse (talk • contribs) 01:52, August 3, 2012

You don't have to "import" any fonts, all ya have to do is download one, open it, and keep it open. It'll work like it's been installed. And for Pete's sake, get Paint.NET. Or Portable GIMP. Or MyPaint portable. They're all free.  ~ BB ~ (T) ~ Fri, Aug 3 '12 6:03 (UTC)

Those links aren't for fonts, they're for programs that are better than MS Paint, and they're free, and they won't give your computer a virus. If you want a "garfield" font, here's one. ~ BB ~ (T) ~ Mon, Aug 6 '12 6:36 (UTC)

Boo

Hi. Just been noticing your ability to make friends and influence people on their talk pages. We have a guide on how to talk to other users at BGBU, but it may be a little complex. So I figured I'd leave a note here that summarises it all.

Assume good faith

Everyone here has a different way of talking to people. Some are more brief than others. I tend to use irony a bit. It doesn't mean a comment of This can be done differently and would improve your contributions doesn't mean You suck donkey cock. It's hard to understand but everyone here will be critical of everyone else. It's how we all learn and improve.

Don't attack people

This is a flip side to the above. While you may be critical of what someone else is doing, that doesn't mean you can say You suck donkey cock. You can happily say I don't agree with what you're doing. Could you please stop it or justify it?

You don't suck donkey cock

Just because others may not agree with what you are doing, does not mean one of you is right and one of you is wrong. Of course, those who have been around here for a while are more familiar with what humour works on this site and what humour doesn't. HTBFANJS is a very useful set of guidelines. But just because something doesn't work here (or is considered not funny or fails QA) doesn't mean it won't work elsewhere. Encyclopaedia Dramatica, Illogicopedia, and Sickopedia all have very different guidelines on what they consider funny, or up to QA. My additions to two of those sites have been deleted because they were considered unfunny. The same additions here worked.

So, outside of generalities, let's get to specifics. Your Garfield comic series - on this site it has met with resistance. My own opinion is that while they have a kitsch appeal mixed with an in your face coarseness that makes them funny to the right audience, I don't think the right audience for them is Uncyc. I think they'd be very suited to Sickopedia, and probably ED. This doesn't mean it's good or bad. My romantic poetry really doesn't work on this site. It works really well on a platform for romantic poetry though. Don't start spitting at Xamralco for his deletion or other feedback - he's been made an admin on this site, and can ban you very quickly for you calling him a cunt. If he has suggested something doesn't work here, it's a good bet he knows what he is talking about. He also has the horrible job of deleting stuff from the site. As he is the one that presses the delete button, of course he get's a lot of negative feedback. You went to his page ready to do exactly the same.

And one last thing. Add new comments to the end of talk pages. Most of us scroll to the bottom of the talk page to see what's new. At the top you are likely to be ignored. Nominally Humane! 11:40 06 Aug

(From User talk:PuppyOnTheRadio): I appreciate your politeness, but given how impossible it is to please any admin on this site, I've decided not to contribute anymore. I find the Garfield stuff funny, and so do a lot of others. If an admin doesn't, I understand, but to have the power to take anything down at any time on one's whim detracts from the fun of this site. I'm sure you'll defend yourself by saying I'm no great loss, but keep in mind that I had intended to do a few articles in their entirety that would have been different from Garfield humor. Now I won't. I'm not sorry in the slightest about calling XamRalco a cunt. Tell him I said so. If I find this account banned, no big deal. You may respond if you like, but I will not read it. – Preceding unsigned comment added by FlameHorse (talk • contribs)

Actually, I had read a few items you'd done earlier. If I felt that your leaving was no big loss then I wouldn't put the effort into trying to keep you on site. And we all have disagreements from time to time - I'm not long back from a ban caused by myself and an admin disagreeing. I hope you reconsider your decision to leave the site. Nominally Humane! 11:37 07 Aug

I don't think you're gonna get banned for calling an admin a cunt. (Unless they actually had one, in which case, yeah, you'd probably get banned.) But stick around and learn, don't run off in a huff. ~ BB ~ (T) ~ Wed, Aug 8 '12 7:02 (UTC)
