Signing off and New Section
Just a little thing : when you leave a message on a talk page, create a new section and sign with four tildes (RainingPain17 (talk) 18:25, September 17, 2014 (UTC)) or with the signature button. Because this way I cannot directly know who posted that. RainingPain17 (talk) 18:25, September 17, 2014 (UTC)


 * Well since I cannot play GTA Online right now it would be cool if you take a pic of the Adder in GTA Online (in selfie mode to prove you are in GTAO) then show it to us. Your edit will be then valid. RainingPain17 (talk) 15:56, September 19, 2014 (UTC)

Constant Reverting
Constantly reinstating edits that have been undone is not allowed on the wiki. Tom reinstated a paragraph you deleted about GTA community reference. Removing it again will result in warnings and possible banning. Leo68 (talk) 22:02, September 18, 2014 (UTC)

That's understandable, but all he was doing was reinstating a paragraph that was deleted. The controversy over the Adder's speed is factual, just to set the record straight. Leo68 (talk) 14:33, September 19, 2014 (UTC)

Adder Spawning in GTA Online
For the record, I'm not convinced that photo wasn't staged, which is why I asked for video. I have 2 PS3s in the household with my unemployed son's profile both chars over Rank 500 (3000 hours logged), mine both over 250 (1500 hours logged) plus I have a new free-aim-only profile at rank 65. My playstyle in free-roam is car thief - I am always around Vinewood and Rockford hills looking for cars and have never seen an Adder that didn't belong to another player. I'm not categorically saying it can't happen but I do still doubt it. Pehaps I'll buy myself one again and see if I can seed-spawn it to provide secondary verification for you. :) Smurfynz (talk) 21:41, September 19, 2014 (UTC)


 * Right, have you replicated an Adder to "seed" the spawn - Does not happen otherwise. Have you ever seen one spawn without an Adder to seed it? If not, I suggest you add that requirement to the page.Smurfynz (talk) 23:55, September 19, 2014 (UTC)


 * I wasn't suggesting you had duplicated or created a "set up" or anything like that.


 * I meant that I was able to get the Adder to spawn naturally on Portolo Dr (replicated the scenario) by using my own Adder as a "seed" car. If I drove anything else, it would not spawn, but as soon as I drove an Adder, it showed up. So I was asking whether you had ever seen one spawn there when no-one else around you had an Adder of their own. If you hadn't, then I was suggesting we add something like...


 * Adder will spawn in online free roam on Portolo Drive if there is a player already driving an Adder nearby.Smurfynz (talk) 10:52, September 20, 2014 (UTC)


 * Hey, I've just added the "seed' requirement to the Adder online spawn. Also reverted your edit about V8-W12 as you have mis-read the website description. Smurfynz (talk) 23:05, September 24, 2014 (UTC)



Please stop removing factual information from articles. This is against wiki policy. Further violation will result in a banning. Leo68 (talk) 19:26, September 20, 2014 (UTC)

Huntley Sport: Vapid Huntley S: Enus they are two different cars

In GTA IV and EFLC there is a Vapid vehicle called the Huntley Sport based off the Range Rover. Now, in V Gallivanter was introduced, and the Baller replaced the Huntley Sport as the new Range Rover, manufactured by a parody of Land Rover as opposed to Ford. Rockstar got their facts wrong with the Huntley Sport, but it stays on the wiki because that's how things work here, so no, I won't add the Huntley Sport to the Enus or Gallivanter page because it's not manufactured by them, that is confirmed by Rockstar. In GTA IV the Huntley Sport has a Vapid badge.

In GTA V, a new car was added via the High Life DLC, the Huntley S. This is manufactured by Enus, and is designed like a Bentley, which Enus is based off. That closes the matter.

Instead of deciding I'm wrong, discuss it on the talk page BEFORE continuing to revert the edits, or you will be banned for violating policy. We had this issue yesterday with the Adder. Leo68 (talk) 19:34, September 20, 2014 (UTC)

All I'm doing is helping you out. If it was an admin or another patroller, you would've been banned by now. I broke it down for you so you would understand, that way an admin or bureaucrat wouldn't ban you because you reverted the same edit 4 times. It's my job to undo wrongful edits. Next time it happens, don't bother asking for help, because this is all I get when I do. Leo68 (talk) 21:02, September 20, 2014 (UTC)

Driving Physics
The reason i'm asking to delete the page is because there is already a page saying every detail about driving, actually, this page (AndreEagle17 (talk) 20:05, September 24, 2014 (UTC))

Stop removing the deletion template. There needs to be a discussion on the talk page first. Tom Talk 20:10, September 24, 2014 (UTC)

Cover Art to Box Art
I never thought your page would be useful, but I just added the pics, then let the staff decide. Incase they would keep it, the gallery job would be done. RainingPain17 (talk) 20:11, September 24, 2014 (UTC)


 * There's a page, Category:Boxart, which contains all the box arts pictures. I figured it out a few hours ago, that's why I think your page is a bit useless. RainingPain17 (talk) 20:15, September 24, 2014 (UTC)


 * Ask for a staff member to do it, because I don't know how to merge pages. RainingPain17 (talk) 20:18, September 24, 2014 (UTC)



Willard Hearse
Nah, not really, i figured out that the Willard Hearse is different, in the HD universe it looks more likely a Willard and the Romero is a Washingthon, about the Kart, it's already merged (AndreEagle17 (talk) 20:31, September 26, 2014 (UTC))

Uh, the link is actually in the infobox in the "related" section (AndreEagle17 (talk) 20:37, September 26, 2014 (UTC))

Table
Oh, I know how to add this kind of table. Where do you want to add it ? RainingPain17 (talk) 13:10, September 27, 2014 (UTC)

They are called infobox templates. there are a couple of ways to add them, but you must be careful to use the correct type of template on the correct type of page. I mostly use source editor or the old style visual editor so they are quire easily accessible. I think they are a little more hidden in the new Visual Editor.Smurfynz (talk) 13:14, September 27, 2014 (UTC)

XPanetta Block Suggestion
What? I don't face a ban. I was editing pages to get badges. You said that you've learnt about it and you've dealt with it, and it is my turn, to learn or leave? Okay, you know what? You got what I want for you to do. XPanettaa (talk) 20:28, September 27, 2014 (UTC)


 * You're effectively facing a block (or even a ban, depending on what VaultBoy's choice), do you want me to show you a list ? RainingPain17 (talk) 18:30, September 27, 2014 (UTC)


 * Yea but it was you who warns me to stop going past guidlines if the wiki page and says that I have already been blocked for violation of the policy I did nothing wrong. I'm the on who makes edits on pages to get badges. So, do you want me to show you a list? XPanettaa (talk) 20:43, September 27, 2014 (UTC)


 * I'm not only constant reverting, bad or threatining language and violation. You says that I got have got 3 users warning you but I don't want the 3 users warning and having a deal with me, and I did nothing wrong. I was editing on pages to get badges. XPanettaa (talk) 21:11, September 27, 2014 (UTC)

User created (Rockstar-Verified only) jobs
Be my guest. I don't like many of them at all, but they are content that needs to be documented here.

Use the infobox template for the races and make sure you name the creator. Make sure you add the right categories.

I'm looking at the official deathmatches and contend jobs at the moment to see whether the standard mission template will work or whether I need to build new one(s) and then we can extend that to the Verified ones too. Smurfynz (talk) 20:47, October 1, 2014 (UTC)

The easiest way to get the page layout and infobox right is go into the source code of an existing one, and copy it to notepad. Then when you create the new page, just copy & paste it into the source code tab and update the fields, you can then go back to the visual editor to continue editing if you find that easier.

e.g.

"..."

- -Race description

  is a ? Race featured in Grand Theft Auto Online. It is available for up to 8 players. Players must race ...

Smurfynz (talk) 21:08, October 1, 2014 (UTC)

I've just built a new infobox for the other content creator jobs (not races) see: Bridge of Death for example on use.

Smurfynz (talk) 00:55, October 2, 2014 (UTC)

Spelling
Hey man, I appreciate your help to this Wiki but you really need to improve your spelling. I don't really mind correcting your edits but everytime it is quite annoying. You especially need to stop adding caps where they are not needed and add where they are needed.

And also, when you edit someone's talk page you never create a section, this can cause mess then. If you need some help with editing here leave a message on a staff member's talk page and he will give you a tutorial. RainingPain17 (talk) 18:40, October 2, 2014 (UTC)

Infoboxes
Hey, I've added an infobox with the correct format in the Panto-monium race page, if you go to edit mode and select "Source" mode instead of "Visual", you'll see how it's done. Now you (or any editor) only have to fill the empty spaces, because right now I don't have any info to add about this race. By the way, if you want to know how something works in the wiki -infoboxes in this case- it's a good idea to check similar articles (like other online races in this case), clicking edit and going to source mode. I hope that helps. Cheers. DocVinewood (talk) 19:35, October 2, 2014 (UTC)

^ This is exactlty correct. As I have said to you above, just copy and paste a template from an existing page source to your new page source and fill in the fields.Think of it like filling n a form. Anthing before an = sign on a line must not be changed, they are the fields defined by the form author. If you change a fieldname, it will either just fail to dsplay or it could break the display of the entire form. Anthing after the = can be changed to update the form and display the new data.

For the user created races, get the data either in game or from the Social Club site. They will have all the distance, vehcle classes etc listed. Some do not have the creator name any more and we may need to investigate to find that nfo now. Smurfynz (talk) 04:09, October 3, 2014 (UTC)

Monkeypolice188 User Boxes and Info Boxes
Tell me what would you like to show up and I'll do that for you. RainingPain17 ( Talk -  Edits ) 18:12, October 4, 2014 (UTC)

It's done. By the way when you create Races pages you can look for the description on the Rockstar Games Social Club. RainingPain17 ( Talk -  Edits ) 18:35, October 4, 2014 (UTC)

Vehicles
Hey monkeypolice, in your infobox, it says that you have a Mesa and a Sprunk Bati 800, but you actually own a Merryweather Mesa and a Sprunk Bati Custom, that's more accurate :P ( Talk  ) 20:17, October 9, 2014 (UTC)

Gallery Boxes Help
Can you show me a precise example of the box you're telling me about ? RainingPain17 ( Talk -  Edits  -  Blogs ) 08:10, October 11, 2014 (UTC)

Easy. All you have to do is to add

Replace each "Image.jpg" with the name of your image. Has to be done in source editor, otherwise it won't work.

RainingPain17 ( Talk -  Edits  -  Blogs ) 08:18, October 11, 2014 (UTC)

Like I said. First you need to upload your photos (when you are on a wiki page, there is a Photos box below the videos on the right of the screen, with the option "Add Photos"). Memorize their name, and do as I said above. RainingPain17 ( Talk -  Edits  -  Blogs ) 08:24, October 11, 2014 (UTC)

Userbox
I did what you asked. However, when there was something where you put several choices (such as radio stations), I only picked the first one, as only one value can fit in an userbox field. RainingPain17 ( Talk -  Edits  -  Blogs ) 19:11, October 12, 2014 (UTC)

Job Infobox templates
Looks like you are getting the hang of them now :)

Here's a checklist I use for each online job page:


 * Page created


 * Categories added


 * Description quote added


 * Infobox completed


 * Map image (if applicable)


 * Infobox image


 * Image gallery

So far, you are doing 2 of those. Smurfynz (talk) 20:20, October 13, 2014 (UTC)

Description uses the "quote" template. It has three parts, "Free text"

- Who/what you are quoting Once again, to understand how a page works, you just need to look at the source. Smurfynz (talk) 20:46, October 13, 2014 (UTC)

Not quite finished yet... Content Creator Jobs - Update
2 DMs weren't on the Content Creator list but were on the social club - I have added them to the list - you can do the new pages.

Are you going through my checklist of components needed for each page? I'm going to go through and do some checks and tidyups. Check the history to see what I (and a couple of the patrollers) have been adding that you are mising off. It's pretty easy to grab a screenshot of the map from the social club and crop it to upload.

Good work otherwise though. Just keep listening to the advice you are getting and we'll make a useful contributor out of you ;-) Smurfynz (talk) 06:30, October 16, 2014 (UTC)

Skylift Size compared to Cargobob
The only way to do this is actually to spawn the Skylift through a save editor, have a Cargobob parked anywhere and compare.

And I just got the idea. I'm gonna do it and I'll post the photo here. RainingPain17 ( Talk -  Edits  -  Blogs ) 19:12, October 19, 2014 (UTC)

Good job dude, you're actually right ! Here are 3 photos I took.

I did not realise how big it was, because I took the "Subtle" approach, so I didn't see it. If you want to revert my edit, you should add the first picture, I think it is a good size compraison.

RainingPain17 ( Talk -  Edits  -  Blogs ) 19:34, October 19, 2014(UTC)

RE:Userbox
Unfortunately, I can't do anything about that. Userboxes are programmed not to take a special space as galleries, but merge with the text on the right, center or left. RainingPain17 ( Talk -  Edits  -  Blogs ) 20:01, October 19, 2014 (UTC)

Does that look better? There is a template called "Clear" that will force following sections to not wrap around images or infoboxes. Smurfynz (talk) 20:28, October 19, 2014 (UTC)

Oh, didn't know about that. Thanks for telling it. RainingPain17 ( Talk -  Edits  -  Blogs ) 20:29, October 19, 2014 (UTC)

Created jobs
How can I get my created jobs verified by Rockstar? Because I have created two races and they weren't verified, have you ever seen them in GTA Online? The names are:

Run to the Hills (Created by AninhaEagle16)

The slowest race ever (Created by AninhaEagle16)

( Talk ) 20:34, October 19, 2014 (UTC)

So sad, I created the race over 6 months ago :/ cursed rooftop rumble players ( Talk  ) 20:42, October 19, 2014 (UTC)

Trivia
I don't refuse help :) If you need support, a perfect example is here (sections should have the game full name, or at least GTA San Andreas but never GTA SA). RainingPain17 ( Talk -  Edits  -  Blogs ) 17:26, October 21, 2014 (UTC)

And BTW there's some pages with the trivia section above the locations and gallery, could you swap them? (like Yosemite, Dodo, etc) ( Talk  ) 17:35, October 21, 2014 (UTC)

Hey Monkeypolice. I actually am an admin on a quite dead wiki called Driv3r Wiki. I'd love for you to join. 20:32, October 21, 2014 (UTC)Smashbro8

I have only played Driv3r, so i'd join the driver wiki, but I didn't play the other driver games, maybe i'll visit driv3r wiki ( Talk  ) 00:32, October 22, 2014 (UTC)

Mission Image Concept...
I disagree, as usually images do not show the mission itself, unlike the official images of the GTA V missions. Missions pictures are just an aerial view of the area where it takes place. It is not helpful for an infobox. 14:36, October 25, 2014 (UTC)

Alright I'll come check it out. 14:39, November 1, 2014 (UTC)Smashbro8

Bad news
Man, Smurfynz left the wiki, he had done many good things here, and I don't think he will be back, so, I decided to come here and talk to you about his business, I'd leave you in charge to do what he used to do, are you cool with that? ( Talk ) 14:51, November 3, 2014 (UTC)

Category
Create a page named "Category:(categoryname)". But do not make the category exclusive to GTA IV, but to all games and add what you know about it. We'll complete. The correct name should be "Category:Front Wheel Drive Vehicles". 09:48, November 8, 2014 (UTC)


 * In source editor, in the bottom of each page concerned, add . You add it where you should see other categories link.  10:06, November 8, 2014 (UTC)

Shadows
TBH, it would be as useful as creating a page about toilets. They have changed but it does not deserve a page. 12:38, November 9, 2014 (UTC)


 * No problem. I understand you're trying to help the Wiki positively, but think about how many readers are interested in knowing that "Shadows exist in the GTA Series and have changed". When you'd like to create an article that might be irrelevant, the first thing you need to think about is "Is it really useful ?". 12:47, November 9, 2014 (UTC)

Carl Johnson Jr. (talk) 01:10, November 11, 2014 (UTC)


 * Images policy is important. It must be respected in both naming and licensing, and also in picture quality and size. The images you uploaded are blurry, show some white stripes, are not licensed and incorrectly named. Refer to the GTA Wiki:Image Policy please. 15:50, November 11, 2014 (UTC)


 * These are the better. If you want to take screengrabs of a trailer, make sure the video is at least in 720p, and also make sure we don't have white stripes on the photo. 15:56, November 11, 2014 (UTC)

Here.



If the screengrab is fro a GTA V trailer, choose "A screenshot from GTA V" before uploading the photo. 16:07, November 11, 2014 (UTC)

Jumbo Jet
I was talking to Rain, but he and CJ Jr. didn't agree with that, but I think it's fair enough, because there are dozens of Jets in the game, I even asked Rain if there was a car named "car" in the game, we should use the nickname for this case, the same goes to the Police Interceptor, which is named "police cruiser" in the actual game ( talk ) 20:18, December 1, 2014 (UTC)

Don't worry about that, Jumbo Jet redirects there :) ( talk ) 20:24, December 1, 2014 (UTC)

Cruiser
I'll find time this week to finish it, then we'll make this up. The GTA IV and GTA V police cruiser will both be on separate pages, and we'll redirect Interceptor to the GTA V police cruiser page. 20:55, December 1, 2014 (UTC)

We're not going to make this now, since it needs to be worked. But here's how it's going to be once it's ready to go:


 * Police Cruiser will become a disambig page (yours will be deleted because it will be unnecessary)


 * We'll create a page named Police Cruiser (GTA IV) that has info about GTA IV


 * The same will apply to the GTA V variant


 * We'll turn the Interceptor page to a redirect and the Police Buffalo page will be a TBoGT page only.

Currently the project is still "stuck" in my sandbox, which means it's not meant to be used in articles now. 21:04, December 1, 2014 (UTC)

As I said, it's not done yet, so it keeps this format right now. And don't forget the community must agree with the project first. 21:09, December 1, 2014 (UTC)


 * I suggest you to ask all the active users you know to vote on the poll. 21:18, December 1, 2014 (UTC)

Grapeseed Obscenity filter bug
What do you mean useless? Try taking a snapmatic in 90% of Grapeseed. smurfy (coms) 22:40, December 12, 2014 (UTC)

The Rockstar Social club has a word filter that means if you try to be obcene in the decription of a content creator job or a tag on a snapmatic image, it will not allow you to publish it (not that it tells you why, it just says the service is unavailable). Every snapmatic you take in Grapeseed that doesn't have a street name in it, will be blocked by that word filter because it thinks you are tagging it with "Rape". Trust me, I've been trying to document Grapeseed for the last week and a bit and the only way I can get many images is on PS4 using console screengrabs. smurfy (coms) 22:53, December 12, 2014 (UTC)

I made myself very clear above. License your images. This is your fourth warning regarding image licensing. I'm not "coming up with any odd excuse now" (what does that mean btw). So I repeat. License your images. Or it's going to happen the same way as it was for other users. 20:14, December 21, 2014 (UTC)


 * I am not blind. The image had no license, simply a description. I had to add the license by myself. 20:19, December 21, 2014 (UTC)

http://gta.wikia.com/File:Phantom_Clucking_Bell_Trailer_GTA_V.jpg?action=history

You didn't add a license. Besides, when you upload a picture taken with Snapmatic the correct license is the "GTA V screenshot" one. DocVinewood (talk) 20:27, December 21, 2014 (UTC)

Whoa
What's up with you and RainingPain17? You both used to get along very well. ( talk ) 20:17, December 21, 2014 (UTC)

Well, he didn't explain you the issue, your image is named almost correctly, the best way to name it is "Phantom-GTAV-CluckingBell-Front" and the licensing should be "A screenshot in GTA V", but if you have done that, you didn't do anything wrong, because i'm doing this since I got a warning from Carl Johnson Jr., see Rat-Loader, Dukes, Cargobob and Titan, there is at least one screenshot on these articles. ( talk ) 20:25, December 21, 2014 (UTC)

re: via sections
I agree with you! I think we shouldn't add something like "CJ and Franklin are the only nigga protagonists in the series", but some facts are actually interesting, this is a perfect example: "Miguel, Ryder and Pelosi are the only antagonists that didn't attempt to kill the protagonist", so I think some coincidences are okay, but not every single one of them!

Hey Monkeypolice. Just letting you know that you should never allow someone to edit your user page without their permission. That is considered as vandalism and should be reverted.

RE: Promotion votes
You can vote for Doc to be a patroller, anyone can vote, particularly skilled users, because I did vote for Rain to be a patroller back there, and I voted again today, so yes you can vote for him. ( talk ) 15:37, December 28, 2014 (UTC)

*Yes - (signature button or four tildes)

Then you go to the comments and say why you vote for him :P ( talk ) 15:47, December 28, 2014 (UTC)

It's easy, go to GTA Wiki:Requests for Promotion, on the section: "DocVinewood - Patroller" edit the sub-scetion "votes" and wrote a yes, just below LS11sVaultBoy's "yes" vote and do as I did :) ( talk ) 15:53, December 28, 2014 (UTC)


 * You've already been answered, but I wanted to thank you for voting. Greetings! DocVinewood (talk) 14:21, December 31, 2014 (UTC)

Wow, I didn't knew you got a XB1 :P ( talk ) 12:21, December 29, 2014 (UTC)

I got the PS4 just to keep myself updated, the PS4 version of GTA V is also better, the vehicles are really fantastic, mainly the Dodo, I loved that plane, currently I have two games for PS4, it's GTA V and The Last of Us, the latter I got for free, i'll get more games soon.

RE: Mugshot
Hi. To get your Mugshot, you must have a Rockstar Social Club account.

The PS4 and XB1 consoles allow you to take Snapmatics even if you are not a Social Club member and you have to manually upload them.

In game, go to the Gallery in the pause menu. Select the mugshot image and push the right stick (R3) to upload to social club.

Open a web browser and sign into social club, go to your Snapmatic and select the console version on the top right, filter by my photos and your mugshot should be there. Click to open it full size, right click to save image as and name it according to wikia image policy (even images used on your profile need to abide by the policy).

Then upload it using the wiki profile editor. smurfy (coms) 01:21, December 30, 2014 (UTC)

RE: Videos
If you want to use a YouTube video, it works like this:

Between the two tags, you must add the URL of the Youtube video, the part of the URL that comes after "watch?v="

If it's another video, simply upload it 19:32, December 30, 2014 (UTC)

For you too man, i'm back in business now :) ( talk ) 16:27, January 1, 2015 (UTC)

RE: GTA Online Missions
I may do it, but it's been a while since I played GTA Online for the last time. ( talk ) 17:11, January 1, 2015 (UTC)

Ah, okay then, i'll do it right now. ( talk ) 17:18, January 1, 2015 (UTC)

But all the pages already have the "JP 16" in the infobox! I checked out! ( talk ) 17:24, January 1, 2015 (UTC)

Uuuh so you want me to remove the cash reward? (Sorry, I still feel a little woozy xD) ( talk ) 17:30, January 1, 2015 (UTC)

Oh okay, i'll do just like you did on my talk page then! ( talk ) 17:34, January 1, 2015 (UTC)

Happy New Year too man! 23:04, January 1, 2015 (UTC)Smashbro8

Underwater
I never tried it, is it different to dive in first person? I mean, does it work in a different way? ( talk ) 16:57, January 4, 2015 (UTC)

Well, try to press "B" (if that's the same button as the circle on the PS4), that should be the right button

Thanks for that support, just some more time and i'll send the request :P ( talk ) 17:27, January 4, 2015 (UTC)

Parachute Glitch
I support the deletion of the article, this glitch was patched a long time ago, but if more than three users disagree, we should open a forum for that. ( talk ) 17:14, January 5, 2015 (UTC)

I support deletion too. Most glitches are listed within the relative article and very few, if any, glitches have full pages dedicated to them. Even though the glitch is patched, I think it should be listed within the Parachute page because some users may not have a patched game. SJWalker (talk) 17:19, January 5, 2015 (UTC)

Trivia
Hey Monkeypolice. I just had this same conversation with AndreEagle. Some trivia that you may remove and think is sky is blue, may be relevant to other users like me. I'd suggest checking in with me about any trivia you find unnecessary and let me decide whether it's sky or blue or not. Just wanted to let you know. By the way, do you have any thoughts of running for promotion? 20:57, January 5, 2015 (UTC)Smashbro8

Well, honestly it's easy though I understand where you are coming from. All you must do is tell the wiki about yourself and how you've helped out greatly here on the Active Requests section on the Requests for Promotion page. Be sure to write "Monkeypolice188 - Patroller" in the Heading size 3. But you don't have to do it now, and I understand how he'd be against both you and AndreEagle. Also, yes he is removing a lot of necessary trivia. Just let me know if you see any trivia you think should be removed so I can confirm it. Keep up the good work and I have your back. 18:23, January 6, 2015 (UTC)Smashbro8

Warnings
Don't worry about warnings, Rain gave me a image licensing warning before I could add a license to my pictures (ironically, they were in my sandbox, waiting to have licenses added), so don't mind that

I feel I can't send a patroller request while Rain is online, he'd be completely against me, that could ruin my chances of being a patroller, despite all my good work (see Trevor's Trailer, I added the Infobox safehouse template for most safehouses). ( talk ) 18:35, January 6, 2015 (UTC)

Smashbro says you do a excellent work here, especially with the GTA Online stuff and I agree with him, if you see Smashbro's first request, he didn't know anything about image policy, he learned that later and then he became a patroller with no time, his first request had all answers as "no" so I think both me and you can be patrollers in the future! ( talk ) 19:03, January 6, 2015 (UTC)

Definitely. Don't worry about what Rain does. Let him do him, he'll only see where it leads him. Both you and Andre deserve promotions. Y'all learned and followed the policies and have both helped out this wiki tremendously. As Andre said, I didn't know much about the image policy, therefore I received majority of my answers as no. But I eventually learned it, and now I'm a patroller. So therefore, if you feel you've done great here and deserve a promotion, go for it! 19:09, January 6, 2015 (UTC)Smashbro8

I'll send the request when a patroller gets promoted or demoted, because there are actually 8 patrollers in the staff, and that's the maximum number of possible patrollers, so if anyone is promoted or demoted, I can finally have my chance :) i'll count on you and more users to help me on that! ( talk ) 19:09, January 6, 2015 (UTC)

There actually is, see Staff (however, it's not updated yet) ( talk ) 19:23, January 6, 2015 (UTC)

There's nothing really stopping you two being patrollers at some point. Even if you and Rain do or don't get along swimmingly, everyone (well, most of us) has one common aim on the Wiki and that's to keep it running smoothly. If Rain wants what's best for the Wiki he'll look beyond any personality differences you may or may not have and vote according to merit. With regards to the staff limits, if Messi1983 isn't active for a few more days he will be automatically demoted as a bureaucrat, so one of the administrators may be moved up and so forth, so your opportunities may come sooner than you think. SJWalker (talk) 19:29, January 6, 2015 (UTC)

Thanks again man :D ( talk ) 19:42, January 6, 2015 (UTC)

Your page
I made an edit (if you don't mind) to your page User:Monkeypolice188/Sandbox/What i think of trivia, removing that I started it. Removing trivia parts have been done here since 2011. An I prefer not having my name on this kind of pages. Thanks! 21:45, January 6, 2015 (UTC)

A Little Help
Before I get started, I wanted to apologize for our dispute over the Huntleys last year. I was out of order. I know we don't particularly get on but I need to know; what is going on between you Rain and Andre. I noticed a huge dispute about Rain's behaviour on Andre's page, as well as Rain's about his attitude, and Andre not wanting to apply for a Patroller position because Rain would immediately say no for no reason. Can you fill me in?

Also, if you want to apply for a Patroller position (now is not a good time with DocVinewood and Smurfynz just getting it). There's no limit but we can't have too many. Either if a demotion or promotion of a Patroller happens you could apply, or you could wait a few months. Leo68 (talk) 04:48, January 7, 2015 (UTC)

Promotion
Hey Monk! I sent a request again, vote there, please :P ( talk ) 15:16, January 7, 2015 (UTC)

Yeah he did, but don't feel guilty, you know that you didn't do anything wrong to him, also, Smashbro had to call him for his behavior, Smashbro got mad seeing what he had done, so don't mind about this, anyway, thanks for the vote man, I knew I could count on you :P ( talk ) 15:58, January 7, 2015 (UTC)

Penumbra
Hey man not to be a hassle or something but would you check the trivia section of the penumbra and tell if the edit waas fine or needs to be undone.Shadow Polaris( Talk ) 16:27, January 7, 2015 (UTC)

Yes i think that obstruction of light is correct rather than obscuring of the light on... what do you say?Shadow Polaris( Talk ) 16:39, January 7, 2015 (UTC)

YouTube
Oh, good to know :P I wanted to start making walkthroughs, but they'd be in portuguese rather than english, I still want to film some interesting things in the enhanced version of GTA V, but I think everything is already on youtube. ( talk ) 17:16, January 7, 2015 (UTC)

Online mission payouts
I see all the work you and Andre did over the holidays to change the reward text in all the mission infoboxes. I'm not convinced that's the best wording. Read the info I have put in this section. You've missed the difficulty multiplier out completely. There is a base/maximum payout for each mission that we can quite easily include in this infobox. I'm just working out whether it's best to put the base (solo easy) or the maximum (full crew on hard). See here for the payouts table. smurfy (coms) 04:04, January 8, 2015 (UTC)

Red Links
Hey man the page CARS (IPL Section) has a lot of red links and i thought to edit them but thought why not consult someone. As you have that on your to do list of removing red links i thought it would be best to inform you. Along with this a lot of red links appear in pages like these.Shadow Polaris( Talk ) 15:06, January 8, 2015 (UTC)

FIB Vehicles
The display title doesn't look good as "FIB" so I removed it, even if it's just the title, FIB should be the title to the agency, not the vehicles. ( talk ) 16:44, January 8, 2015 (UTC)


 * It's easier than you think, you can do this in a few steps:


 * 1 - Click on "edit" on your talk page and go to the source mode.


 * 2 - Press Ctrl + C and then delete all the content (except the welcome message)


 * 3 - Create an article called "User talk:Monkeypolice188"/Archive 1"


 * 4 - Press Ctrl + V on source mode on that page.


 * 5 - Add template to your talk page


 * Then it's done :) [[Image:Signature.png|105px|link=User:AndreEagle17|AndreEagle17]] ( talk ) 16:56, January 8, 2015 (UTC)
