Reply to the UNSC Army Ranks
The UNSC Army and UNSC Marine Corps ranks are the exact same for the Warrant Officer and Officer ranks. Though the UNSC Army Enlisted and NCO ranks/pay grades are quite different. But this is based off of US Army ranks, which seem to be the basis for Halo's UNSC rank structure.....CommanderTony 23:45, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

You're Famous Now! =D
Dear ,

Hello! My name's RelentlessRecusant (I think you probably know me =D), and I just wanted you to know that you've been featured in my fanfiction chronicles - Ghost.

Before you start asking "WTF, RR?!" (oh wait, you only can call me RR if you're in the "RR homie club" =D), Ghost is basically a series of modern-day military situations set in the years 2000 and 2005 (and further years when I continue to expand it =D) featuring Halopedians as characters...I encourage you to check it out and have fun ridiculing yourselves and your fellow Halopedians! =D

If you're sufficiently interested and want to let peeps know about your character, just go to Halopedia:Project Userbox, and place userboxes on your page telling peeps that pass by about your character. =D

Questions about the fanfic, me, userboxes, Halo, life, or the crzzy stuff that happens in my fanfic? =D Message me as always at my talk page. Hope to see you soon to chat with you about my fanfic! =D

Best regards,

Gho st I nsi de the M ach ine ''(Whisper through the Storm ) (My Journeys ) (Omens ) 22:14, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

Unused Page
Hey Esemono. I noticed in recent changes that you deleted because "not going to use then erase". According to the unused images page, however, it says "other web sites may link to an image with a direct URL, and so may still be listed here despite being in active use." Anyways, I just think Halopedia shouldn't delete images that aren't in use, because they may have a use in the future. Cheers,  Manticore  TalkundefinedCSV 10:49, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the heads up I've changed the unused images page text as recomended. -- Esemono 04:44, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
 * OK then. Good to have clarification. --  Manticore  [[Image:Fleet Admiral.jpg|25px]] TalkundefinedCSV 06:41, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

Covenant of Halopedia
With regard to whether we (CoH) do anything, you could start by reading the page, then reading about the feature article, then reading the history and contributions of the users to find that the CoH is doing some good in cleaning up and improving pages. In case there is any confusion, this reply was meant to be informative and any hostility was unintentional. It's just me, I don't sugar coat stuff. Peace. --James-001 09:45, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

RE: Organisation
I have messaged both RR and Dragonclaws about putting something on the main page but nothings happened .... maybe their ignoring me ? Oh well I have tried --Ares.117 18:25, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

CfD
Hey Esemono. There's a new page been created, Close Quarters Combat, that I'm sure can just be trashed now without leaving it lying around for a while. Cheers,  Manticore  TalkundefinedCSV 04:25, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Done -- Esemono 10:33, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

Useless info? What do you mean? The article barely had any info. I just made it bigger. It was small.

Master Chief Petty Officer
Excuse me, but I don't believe i've made any edits to this page. ALso, seeing how i've implemented the Covenant Rank and Species infoboxes to the site and all by other contributions to the other articles, i'd say i've done a decent job of creating something useful.

Seeing this, why did you post this on my page?

== RE: Master Chief Petty Officer == +   + Your edits to this page were considerably unhelpful. Instead of turning this into another trashy fan site, why don't you contribute something of value to Halopedia. --  Manticore  TalkundefinedCSV 10:23, 23 March 2007 (UTC) <tt> Dude984 </tt> [ Communications ] - [ Contributions ] 13:59, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

Never mind. Sorry. I did make [one edit]. However, i moved a picture and switched to a semi-updated UNSC rank infobox (i need to finish that). So, why all the hostility? <tt> Dude984 </tt> [ Communications ] - [ Contributions ] 14:03, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

FanArt Committee Members
Hey Esemono.

Quick question - why don't we have voting against users as well as for them in FanArt Committee nominations? We do for the Featured Article and other voting situations.

Thanks,  Manticore  TalkundefinedCSV 09:49, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
 * I didn't really want the negative thing that was something that RR added. But it wouldn't be a good idea for the FanArt Committee because A)Hardly anyone votes for it and if there was negative votes no one would get elected B)Negative votes would cause bad blood and a lot of members can't take ANY kind of critism. -- Esemono 13:52, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
 * I was thinking about what you said, and it's true that only a small percentage of users ever vote in it. I've taken the liberty of temporarily changing the current events template on the main page, to inform users that elections are taking place. --  Manticore  [[Image:Fleet Admiral.jpg|25px]] TalkundefinedCSV 09:43, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks for that. Interest seems to have picked up. -- Esemono 02:09, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

FanArt Committee
Hey Esemono. Quick question regarding FanArt nominations - are users allowed to nominate themselves? I don't want to nominate myself, but I've noticed a few users who have on the page. Since it isn't expressly stated either way, it'd be good if one of the admins could post something on the page so it's clear. Also, while it's sort of obvious, I think there should be something about FanArt members being excluded if they get blocked. Or even - having a rule that they can't have been blocked (ever, or in the last six months or whatever), to be nominated/elected - sort of a like a good standing clause. Just some thoughts, let me know what you think. Oh and hope you don't mind me chipping in on your other messages. Cheers,  Manticore  TalkundefinedCSV 14:27, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
 * No worries, thanks for helping me out. As for the FanArt nominations, at the moment users are allowed to nominate themselves but you don't have to do that as you already have a vote for you. -- Esemono 16:47, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
