Bad Poll
THis has nothing to do with the Haqlo Universe, so I thought i'd bring it to your attention to delete, since I cant put the delete template on it. Poll: What is your input on all the non Halo stuff( ex Chuck Norris ). And what's your opinion on my RfA? I'm not asking you to support me, just inquiring as to your opinion.

UoH Bravo Company
You must be surprised that I came on now. i've not been coming on to Halopedia due to busier workload and different leisure activities. So, um, since I only come on, briefly, once every two weeks, can you take over me as UoH Bravo Company's Operational Officer? Thanks.--Sp art an- 781  CommCSV 03:32, 11 March 2008 (UTC)


 * I'm not that active myself. You're better off finding someone else. -- Manticore   (talk)  10:19, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

Spelling
I'm using spellcheck.py with my bot, why? Bllasae 16:47, 12 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Well, most of the time I'm checking for broken links, and changing spelling on articles instead of randomly checking random articles makes more sense to me.Bllasae 16:47, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

Bot
Yeah, I didn't need you to "spell it out" for me, as I've already asked for permission on the bot page you sent me to, like 2 days ago. Maybe you should check that instead of yelling at me, especially since I haven't even run the bot since you sent me the message that I needed permission.


 * Well I wouldn't know that, would I? You're running the bot under your primary account, and from what you said on IRC, you don't feel this has to change. -- Manticore   (talk)  02:38, 16 March 2008 (UTC)

IRC Request-Bllasae
Hey Manticore. About my IRC Op request:How about this? You give me op rights for a temporary "trial" run, and if you don't like how I am as an operator on the Halopedia IRC, then you can remove them?


 * I've given my opinion here. -- Manticore   (talk)  11:03, 18 March 2008 (UTC)


 * There's no change....Also, why don't you give real reasons why I shouldn't be an IRC op.Bllasae

Volunteer
Hi, I'd just like to volunteer for any community work, or anything else I can do to improve Halopedia, is there anything I can do? Thanks. Darth tom iChat What I've done 20:05, 25 March 2008 (UTC) 14:20, 4 April 2008 (UTC)


 * There's plenty of things to do. Check out Category:Marked Articles for a start. -- Manticore   (talk)  16:52, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

Brute article
Manticore, I think that what you did to the point system was great; now people will edit more, instead of just sitting there clicking the quiz button for hours! Anyway, I'm just saying that maybe you could slightly change the amount of points for articles? Because I made a massive edit to the Brute article, but only got the standard fifty points, even though it was massive. Maybe you coulod change this slightly? Thanks.

 * The way we do it now is the only way we can possibly have the system. It's too resource intensive otherwise. And WTF is that in your signature? -- Manticore   (talk)  14:24, 7 April 2008 (UTC)

It's the words Darth tom. Is there anything wrong with it? My page iChat What I've done 20:05, 25 March 2008 (UTC) 15:25, 7 April 2008 (UTC)

How do you creat bots? odst 04:21, 12 April 2008 (UTC)


 * What sort of bot? -- Manticore   (talk)  12:10, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

Like Mantibot.odst 14:47, 12 April 2008 (UTC)


 * I didn't create it, I downloaded an existing bot framework to run. There's more information on User:MantiBot. Please stop putting a space before your comments, it messes with wiki page formatting. -- Manticore   (talk)  14:51, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

Fuel Rod Gun
The Fuel Rod Gun is an infantry weapon used throughout the Halo series. This has been confirmed by gameplay prompts, official material, and even by the Marine quotes describing the supposed Halo 3 "Fuel Rod Cannon".

The Fuel Rod Cannon is an entirely different weapon, described only in the books. The only times this weapon has been mentioned is in Halo:the Flood where a Banshee used it as a heavy weapon to destroy a trailer of ammunition and in First Strike where a pair of Hunters used them. This indicates that the Halo2-3 era version of the Hunter's weapon and the Fuel Rod Cannon seen throughout the series are the only weapons that can be called "Fuel Rod Cannons" if Halopedia is to retain its claim of following canon. Bungie made a mistake? Fuel Rod Gun is a misnomer? Sure. The thing is, this wiki follows what canon is, not what it should be. Canon > realism. --TerminalFailure 17:52, 14 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Would it be possible to remove the FRC from the usable weapons template? It has never been a usable weapon, as the only FRCs that wasn't part of a vehicle were used by a Hunter pair in First Strike... --TerminalFailure 12:26, 15 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Propose it on the talk page. It's what they're there for. -- Manticore   (talk)  15:10, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
