Shouldn't Manticore also be listed in the Janitor operator section as well?Bllasae 03:50, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

No... -- Manticore (talk) 07:31, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
Most senior position listed. While Janitors are higher across Wikia, on individual wikis, they are below Administrator. Admins decide the course of their particular wiki, janitors just clean up the crap. --forgottenlord 02:40, 27 June 2008 (UTC)

This request is now closed, I'll give the people what the hell they want.

--Grievous797

Uh...ok, but you realise you heard the opinions of like, 3 or 4 users and 1 admin, nowhere near the entire active IRC community. HaloDude 23:27, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
I just figured it's going to go on and on and on for a long time and determined it wasn't worth all of the trouble. Grievous797

Request for Low-level Op on IRC

I, Spirit-of-HALO, would like to request for Low-Op on #halopedia. Pertaining to Grievous's reason, I'm usually there when there is no one Opped. I would like to better the IRC channel by, at least, keeping order and helping other users. I have asked RelentlessRecusant on this term and said he would discuss with me. Thank-you for your time.

I'll have to say that I'll need to see more moderating skills coming from Spirit-of-HALO, such as giving out warnings or anything of the sort. --Blemo File:Progress Wheel.gif TALK CONTRIBUTIONSEMAILMESSAGE 00:17, 27 June 2008 (UTC)

Chief frank 001

I dont know if we can do that but i would like to request a low ops status for #halopedia ive be on #halopedia since june 13 2007 and im almost there all day long and i think i would the good person for the job i also have great knowledge of the channel rule if that can help. i hope i can help CF001 00:06, 26 June 2008 (UTC)

Support.svg Support I don't see why not! Pryo 'Zarkum, Tawk Work Story 00:08, 26 June 2008 (UTC)

Oppose.svg Oppose I'm sorry. I know you try your hardest and I see that, but IRC is a medium where communication is absolutely a must for moderation - some phrases that seem offensive might not be, sarcasm may, at times, be difficult to detect, and the oddities of the particular language mean that you might miss something that needed to be caught or caught something that should've been let go. Your limitations with English make me unwilling to support your candidacy. --forgottenlord 02:42, 27 June 2008 (UTC)

  • i understand, yes it can be a problem, i already know that was a problem but i understand around 90-95% of what you saying on #halopedia. also i appreciate you said i try my hardest. CF001 14:43, 27 June 2008 (UTC)

Support.svg Support Although Forgottenlord may be correct, we always have a user or four that could tell whether or not operator actions are needed, and alert him. So I see no reason why not to allow him op status. Lieutenant Vatz "My COM Network""My Work" 01:31, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

Blemo

I am requesting for low-level again, if I already didn't have them removed, because my last operatorship was only a trial for my RfA. Since I cancelled my RfA, I'm pretty sure that my trial is up, I would like to "renew" it. I have been on the IRC for nearly a year, had three months of experience of moderating #halopedia, and I am very fluent around the channel. I am very well aware of the changes in IRC policies and I frequent the IRC every single day I find a computer. Please take this into consideration.

Thanks,

Support.svg Support I definitely support this. Even though I don't think he's ready to be an admin, he suits as an op. ChurchReborn 06:02, 27 June 2008 (UTC)

Ahax for op!

I'm pretty sick of having to sit and watch spammers, flamers and noobs piss people off while theres no ops on. As anybody who frequenst IRC now will tell ya, I've been pretty mature as of late, I haven't been kicked for months, I've been a good little boy.

Though today was the last straw, a invasion of noobs and spammers this afternoon, with them forcing actual halopedians who were chatting in there off, I had to ride it out as no ops or janitors were on.

Ajax 013 13:14, 29 June 2008 (UTC)

I'm not sure if overall maturity quite fits the description, but I see no harm being done putting the kickstick in your hands. Pryo 'Zarkum, [iTalk] [iWork] [iWrite] 13:21, 29 June 2008 (UTC)

Support.svg Support Support! User:FightWithHonor

Support.svg Support Ajax is an experienced user and I agree that he has matured, and would make a good operator. He is aware of the channel rules and keeps to them, as well as alerting current operators when other users do not. General simon rjh 13:57, 29 June 2008 (UTC)

Support.svg Support As per Simon. I know actually what you mean by "having to sit and watch spammers, flamers and noobs piss people off while theres no ops on." --Blemo File:Progress Wheel.gif TALK CONTRIBUTIONSEMAILMESSAGE 02:34, 1 July 2008 (UTC)

Support.svg Support I'll tentatively support this candidacy on a short leash. I'd be more comfortable if your fellow members of HaloFanon indicate that there have been a minimal number of problems on that wiki. My biggest concern is your temper which I find is rather short and I've seen you crave kicks when it was merely someone annoying you. That said, I haven't dealt with you significantly since I came out of retirement so....yeah --forgottenlord 18:25, 5 July 2008 (UTC)

Support.svg Support Hey, wait a minute, don't you already have ops here? SPARTAN-A984 01:39, 14 September 2008 (UTC)

SpecopsElite342,low level op

i frequent the IRC as ZukaRasami,and am active most of the day,i'm tired of the spammers and trolls;i can't do anything about them currently,i'm also active when the other ops are gone.

Maybe when you learn to put spaces between punctuation, remember to sign your posts, not asking for something like this on the wiki where last I heard you were still banned from, follow the nick rules, and actually tell people to stop spamming or whatever they're doing wrong... ChurchReborn 05:51, 20 July 2008 (UTC)

Oppose.svg Oppose No disrespect, but your currently banned from Halopedia, and have no moderator experience as far as I know. Pryo 'Zarkum, [iTalk] [iWork] [iWrite] 18:49, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

Contact status

I've started a nomination for myself having contact status in #halopedia over at Halopedia:IRC Channel/Contact. Any input is appreciated. — Manticore [ AdminIRCHOTMBot ] 17:34, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

Halo_3

I am requesting to be a low-level Op on #Halopeida, I am normally on at times that there is not any Ops on, and I am a constant user on the IRC. I also believe that some of the stuff that happens while an Op is away is outrageous, or just the stuff that some Ops let go is amazing. I am also going to be Homeschooled next year so I can be on for most of the day. H3Legendary.jpgFear Me, or else... 01:14, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

Support.svg Support I'm on the fence on this one. On one hand: You are mature during situations with spammers. IE. Warning then attempting to contact an admin and not joining in with the spammer. And on the other hand: You have a bad history with arguments with users and OPs. I'm not going to act holier than thou, (I've had my spats with the way the OPs ran the IRC many times) but that may affect the final decision of your opping. Template:Signature/Grievous797

Support.svg Support I'm also on the fence for this, I agree with Grievs, you are mature and serious enough to handle the responsibilities, but there have been several occasions were you have lost control to the "shenanigans" of the channel. All in all I have to say that I support your request. Lieutenant Vatz "My COM Network""My Work" 01:36, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

Just saying; could you use ie instead of IE, as that's one of my nicks. ;)

Support.svg Support Blake can haz ops. He's much more mature now. He knows the rules and I'd be happy to help him with commands if he needs them. --Kwarshinator-(contact)-(contribs)-(edit count) 01:43, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

Support.svg Support 1/2 I have to agree with Grievous on this one. You are very observant and vigilant, constantly alerting operators when they are not paying attention (because of them are cheap. *rimshot*). Even if I do know several other users that deserve op status more than you do, that doesn't have to interfere with your "operation". --Blemo File:Progress Wheel.gif TALK CONTRIBUTIONSEMAILMESSAGE 05:22, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

Weak Support. H3 is capable and mature enough, but like other voters have said, you've had issues with other ops in the past, which worries me. General simon rjh 13:42, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

Weak Support. As per Simon. He's good, but he's had problems with others in the past. --Lord of SPARTANsLOMI HQI here your criesMay your works be honorable

  • I understand what everyone is saying, I did have my fare share of disputes in the past, but, that was in the past. I have not had any issues with anyone in a long time. Nor do I intent to have any more issues, for lack of a better term I have mellowed out. I hope that you guys will allow me to move past my somewhat rocky past, and I appreciate the chance to.H3Legendary.jpgFear Me, or else... 16:23, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

Weak Oppose I don't deny that people can change and I haven't been on IRC enough to be able to evaluate your behavior now - those are far from the reasons for my vote. My vote is because I was last active on IRC from late April through late May and I recall incidents from that time period. Two months to turn over a new leaf is not, IMO, sufficient time to be satisfied with someone being given ops. We don't tend to give ops to users who've been here less than 3 months (I know, I got it within 1 but that's beside the point), I'm not sure we should be giving it to someone who's got a history and has had less than 3 months of good behavior. In a few months, I'd have no problem with this nomination if several users and ops indicate your nose is still clean. --forgottenlord 17:07, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

  • I do not know what you are talking about for most of May and some of April I could not get on much due to Finals, if you are referring to the GPT thing, that happened almost over 5 months ago, and nothing has happened since then. H3Legendary.jpgFear Me, or else... 17:28, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

Support.svg Support -- My interactions with H3 have been mostly positive, and I have been continually impressed with his knowledge of the rules and his ethics in enforcing them. That said, that can not ablate some considerable personal conflicts he has been involved in within the past few months, and the occasional burst of immaturity. I am willing to support his operatorship if he agrees to be intensively reviewed for the beginning of his operatorship, and his status will be removed in the event of any serious wrongdoing. As a whole, though, I am impressed by H3. Warm regards, RelentlessRecusant (Bureaucrat) (Talk) (Contribs) 17:33, 27 July 2008 (UTC)

Thank you RR, I do understand that my past has been "spotty," and I am over that, and want to put the rest behind me, some of the things that I did were stupid. I will admit that, but I am glad to see that people are behind me.

Help

I keep trying to get on IRC but the screen keeps saying, Error. Communication socket already exists. Does anyone know why it keeps doing this ? --Andrew-996 gif from a friend "Radio Frequency 9.96" "Confirmed Kills" 17:53, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

That is probably a problem with your computer - an anti-virus program conflicting or bad settings for the IRC client. I'd recommend looking for an IRC support group as that's probably well beyond the experience of most of the users here --forgottenlord 20:26, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

Try a list of IRC clients. Then use the one that works, and one that you find comfortable. I use CGI:IRC. Sure, it's crap, but it works and it's easy for my IQ of 10 to comprehend. --Blemo File:Progress Wheel.gif TALK CONTRIBUTIONSEMAILMESSAGE 07:27, 29 July 2008 (UTC)

When your life is Halopedia and that is where your friends are, might as well spend your freetime hanging out on Halopedia. BTW: 4 hrs is actually considered to be a relatively small amount of time by our standards - many of our ops are averaging or have averaged closer to 10-12 hrs/day --forgottenlord 13:47, 11 September 2008 (UTC)

Delta-269

I've been talking about this for a while, and I'm finally doing it. I'm requesting operator status on #halopedia. I have experience with the operator commands on the channels #gruntcorner and my personal channel, ##deltahangar. I'm on IRC most of the day on most days, I'll only not be on if I go on a trip, or if my computer explodes (unlikely).
