A/any Vaettir Farm
Was moved without an agreement being reached on the talk page. I moved it back until more people get the chance to voice their opinions on the matter. ApplesaucePancakes 07:13, 28 November 2011 (UTC)
 * You don't need concensus for small changes. It has no critical effect on anything, and I'd already cured all links to the page. The "_HM" bit of the name was a relic of the build name which should never have been there. ALSO you forgot to suppress redirects.

 * Resolved, build is now at Build:A/Me Vaettir Farm. --  Toraen   talk  14:13, 28 November 2011 (UTC)

User Merge?
I don't recall seeing any pages on pvx like Guild Wars Wiki:Requests for user merge - but would you do whatever the procedure is for User:Shadow (new) & User:Shadow Form Slayer (old)   Chieftain   Alex  12:53, 19 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Only Requires votes though Shadow 12:59, 19 November 2011 (UTC)

See his talk page. Has literally never been constructive in the slightest, posts flame-worthy crap and defends himself by calling everybody scrubs. -- Jai . -  01:28, November 22 2011 (UTC)
 * You may want to check, because I've actually been correct in every instance. The AB build was outdated, the ER build sucked and still does the 3rd time around. Actually check your history instead of just assuming. In the case of pvx, the majority is rarely correct, mainly because they're sheep. --Silven Shadow 05:47, 22 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Yeah, you'd be a great judge of your own correctness... Anyway, whether you were right or not is irrelevent here, as you were obviously not contributing to the discussions, but simply using personal attacks (which, by the way, is a bannable offense). If someone (from America) were to go around and say "FUCK JEWS AND MUSLIMS AND HINDIS THEY'RE ALL FAGS!!!11!1!" they might be "right" from a majority standpoint in that they're supporting the religion of the majority, but that doesn't make their opinions any more valid. -- Jai . -  06:00, November 22 2011 (UTC)
 * Not the place to rant jai...-- Relyk 07:44, 22 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Just one last thing before I stop clogging up the AN: I don't even necessarily have issue with Silven's standpoint on the builds he's "contributed" to, but simply how he goes about flaming trolling arguing stuff. If Silven can prove that most of his comments have actually been constructive (which doesn't include calling people sheep, scrubs, shit, etc.), then I'll eat my words. -- Jai  . -  12:38, November 22 2011 (UTC)

Jai was banned for commenting when he knew to stop (even being warned). Shadow was banned for commenting for no reason. Silven has been warned and I will keep an eye out and decide if further action is needed. <font color="#4169E1"> ~ PheNaxKian <font color="#8A2BE2">talk  17:39, 22 November 2011 (UTC)

Protected pages, autoban, some help
Hey Phen/Toraen/Fellow admins, I wanted to ask how it is possible I got an autoban (Other bans looked very different) and I get to see no "edit" button, because it says every page is "protected". S</FONT>h</FONT>a</FONT>d</FONT>o</FONT>w</FONT> 19:07, 25 November 2011 (UTC)

Is massive, massive, massive drama a bannable offense? Because Minion's made months of it. If you want to ban me for essentially feeding him for so long, I wouldn't put up too much of a fight. -- Jai . -  04:49, December 5 2011 (UTC)
 * Toraen is already following the discussion afaik. He would have taken action earlier if I had done anything wrong (or be told to stop). ~  Ӎiñon Crysig.jpg 05:01, 5 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Besides, pvx would be boring if excluded was gone, there'd be no drama to keep us interested! Roland 05:06, 5 December 2011 (UTC)
 * This is the last warning any of you will ever get to not discuss stuff on this noticeboard. This is incredibly lenient considering two people were banned in the above section for this very thing. If you absolutely feel the need to comment on something on this noticeboard use the talk page. To clarify, it is inappropriate for Excluded to comment in a section specifically complaining about his behaviour and Roland's comment was one of the most useless I have ever seen on this noticeboard. Don't do it in future. People can consider this a blanket warning, I will simply ban in the future. A new misery  10:03, 5 December 2011 (UTC)

Violation of PvX:1RV here and refusal to self revert here. Discussion of which version is appropriate is pending on which version of the page is appropriate, but I have no intention of entering into a revert war. A new misery 12:52, 5 December 2011 (UTC)
 * I feel a ban is unneeded. Both parties were acting with good intentions, and all involved are now discussing the changes (and Ska has been warned by yourself). Unless the reverting continues, there's no need for intervention. <font color="#4169E1"> ~ PheNaxKian <font color="#8A2BE2">talk  20:09, 5 December 2011 (UTC)

General NPA & unconstructive edits - All the edits appear to be a logged out user, you can ID him fairly easily with checkuser.    npa And then to top it off, he recommends threatening Jai with a ban: -- <font face="Calibri" color="Black" size="2.5">Chieftain  <font face="Calibri" color=CC6633 size="2.5"> Alex  07:45, 12 December 2011 (UTC)

Archived tested GvG builds
When hitting the "next 200" button on http://www.gwpvx.com/Category:Archived_tested_GvG_builds I get the url http://www.gwpvx.com/index.php?title=Category:Archived_tested_GvG_builds&pagefrom=P%2Fany+Soldier%27s+Fury+Paragon%0AP%2Fany+Soldier%27s+Fury+Paragon but I stay at the first page.

I assume this might be better off at another place but couldn't find it (curse noticeboard maybe?). So please move if appropriate. Steve1 11:21, 9 December 2011 (UTC)
 * It's already on curse noticeboard. It affects all categories with >200 members. --  Toraen   talk  15:34, 9 December 2011 (UTC)

Rask
Countless NPA and poking at new members when told to stop harassing us by admin. Open racism with no attempt to hide what he thinks of Fianchetto and I and his conduct when rating the past few builds have been suspect to votebalancing. Sorry Toraen; I was already typing this when you banned him.  Jazz Shadowhelpingsighands07012012.jpg <font color="Cont">Discuss 06:39, 9 January 2012 (UTC)

I'd like to make a remark that Herp is making unnecessary edits (under the sign of "Qwak") and does not listen to Phen.  Shadow  Talk  22:20, 25 January 2012 (UTC)

Putting videos up on all the farming builds to promote his channel, even for builds that already have perfectly adequate vids already, and with videos that are no better than the previous ones. -- Jai .  -  20:19, April 22 2012 (UTC)
 * The only edit after the warnings (here) was an addition to the existing videos. I'm fine with him adding a video or two to a build as long as he doesn't remove the existing ones with no reason. If they're crappy quality then his videos can be removed, but otherwise ^__^.-- Toraen   confer  20:27, 22 April 2012 (UTC)
 * His edits are in good faith and his videos are great quality. I've appended his videos if there wasn't a reason to replace currents vids-- Relyk 21:24, 22 April 2012 (UTC)

 * While quotes are nice, links to the actual edit are the thing we actually need.

use of tag to violate NPA. i cried. also, he obviously doesn't know what he's talking about, it's a working setup not a troll page. gg. &#9823;Fianchetto 18:34, 21 May 2012 (UTC)

Since Soi is Minion's sock, should all of his/its votes be removed? Also, what about Minion's votes? The few votes of Soi that I could find from Recent Ratings, his talk page, and a little searching:      this one would remove the 5th vote

-- Jai .  -  20:06, May 25 2012 (UTC)
 * Apart from markway (oversight I think), Minion/Soi votes don't exist on the same build. <font face="Constantia" color=#D2691E>Cɥıǝɟʇɐıu Alǝx  20:21, 25 May 2012 (UTC)
 * As long as there isn't a double vote (Soi & Minion on the same build) they can just be left alone. Minion's existing votes remain valid so long as they have proper reasoning. -- Toraen   confer  23:13, 26 May 2012 (UTC)

Violation of 1RV here. Has a bad habit of making senseless edits just to make pages conform to his own personal standards. 16:22, 2 June 2012 (UTC)

Violation of NPA here. Not his first time being a dick using edit summaries. 23:29, 5 June 2012 (UTC)

Violation of [1RV]. Trying to downplay a build through meaningless wordplay: "The player build is less popular than Esurge/Panic, but the hero build is meta in nearly any hero team." Vs. "The player build typically only sees use in spikes, but the hero build is meta in nearly any hero team." . This is like the fourth time he's done it (recently) and in general his edits are meaningless and serve only to meet his personal standards, not the communities. Also he's autistic with attri spreads. 03:53, 20 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Banned by Big. Given that this is at least his third 1RV incident (and we let him go with warnings those times) I don't have much of a problem that the ban is longer than usual for 1RV. -- Toraen   confer  23:48, 21 June 2012 (UTC)

Fianchetto trashvoted, , and Archive:Team - DoA Axeway so he could tag the first two for trash and push the latter to Good. As far as I'm concerned, he's purposely undermining the vetting system of the wiki whether or not his votes are valid and can kindly fuck off the wiki permanently. I've already told him to stop before but he's continued to troll shit and fuck with the wiki and most of his contributions haven't been constructive at all. He's made it obvious he no longer wishes to contribute in a positive manner to the wiki. This might be a personal grudge, but doing this crap right after he gets his ban shortened pisses me off.-- Relyk 05:23, 25 June 2012 (UTC)
 * I removed the vote on DoA Axeway because he is still being ridiculous and his vote on the Turret Ranger was pretty bad, but so was Jake's. I think you are looking at events with blinders on here. He voted on quite a few builds. This may shock you to hear, but his votes may have actually been that these votes are in line with his opinion and not part of some deeper conspiracy.

Mssg Fix
Good morning PvX. Long time no edit. An easy request for one of you. Please copy the code at User:Chieftain Alex/Code Sandbox to Template:Mssg - the latter is protected and so I can't patch it myself with code to fix the categories on the old flux build pages (i.e. non-current-flux builds in the mainspace with the archived tag). That code should fix the problem. -- <font face="Constantia" color=#D2691E>Chieftain Alex 11:05, 5 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Done. It will probably take a while to propagate, but you know that. -- Toraen  wiki  19:21, 12 July 2014 (UTC)
