Hey brotha...I don't understand the ban for the day. I was just making structural edits, nothing more. CTstoriesCTstories...RAD! (talk) 17:15, April 8, 2014 (UTC)CTstories

Structural edits can still be unnecessary tampering. One of your structural edits ended up screwing up the entire page and making it a massive wall of text. I know you didn't mean to but that just proves my point that you shouldn't make unnecessary edits to pages that don't actually improve it in any noticable way, especially if you do it on a bunch of pages at once making it easier to not notice what you are actually doing. The very definition of point-gaming is making a bunch of edits that aren't necesarrily harmful but aren't really beneficial either "nothing more". Whoever added that new achievement track clearly wasn't thinking at all when they did it as it was basically inviting people to blur the lines between legitamate editing and point-gaming. If I hadn't gotten rid of that track, you wouldn't be the only one to make these structural edits on all these pages, which could have easily led to a lot of pages being messed up by constant edits and reversions by well-meaning users.

And by the way, you know you can still use your message wall even while under ban?

There wasn't a cohesive plot to this story that qualifies it as a standalone story. EmpyrealInvective (talk) 18:46, August 2, 2017 (UTC)

Pasta is no Good Without Sauce
I've noticed that you recently posted a pasta that you categorised as a Reddit Pasta, yet you neglected to mention its source, which is the original writer. I kindly ask you to correct this.

Writer's Showcase
I fixed it up for you, Here's the link. The issue was that you were adding on each line which was breaking the template. Have a good one. EmpyrealInvective (talk) 21:36, December 13, 2017 (UTC)

RE: PotM
Good catch, I messed it up. The voting is for the pasta that will be featured next month and the nominations are for the month after that. Thanks for letting me know! MrDupin (talk) 14:44, December 22, 2017 (UTC)

Excuse me, would you happen to know the format to the by user template? Cleric gave me one that didn't work.

Custom signature? pfft, as if I were that creative (talk) 03:23, December 25, 2017 (UTC)

RE: A user
Thanks for bringing it to my attention, much appreciated! MrDupin (talk) 02:30, December 26, 2017 (UTC)

A Heads Up!
If you want to mark a pasta for review, you need to do so by adding a template. Simply adding a category doesn't cut it, as it doesn't describe why should the pasta be reviewed, and it isn't obvious enough.

Hello
Hi, I've seen you around the wiki lately and saw that you're quite knowledgeable in many aspects. I also saw that you made a story not too long ago as a micropasta. It turned out to be one of my favourite micro pastas infact. Anyway, I had a small favor to ask. Very soon I'm going to upload a new story I've been working on to the writers workshop. It's a journal pasta, and that's something I'm not too experienced in. I was wondering if maybe when it's done you could check it out? It shouldn't be too long.

Excuse any grammar mistakes in this message, types on a tablet

The micropasta is letter to the editor

Thank you for bringing this up to me. The situation has been handled accordingly. -- Sloshedtrain  Talk   Contribs   █  10:51, January 1, 2018 (UTC)

Gratitude
It has come to my attention that recently, you've been rather active on wiki by categorising pages and marking them for review or deletion. I wish to thank you for this, as it has made my new job easier for the moment.

Keep up the good work, lad.

RE:Template question
As a matter of fact, there is.

It is called by-reddituser and is made by entering  and then simply writing in the name. I suggest to view some Reddit Pastas to get a better picture.

If there is anything else, or if you have more questions, hesitate not to ask me.

RE:Showcase Page
Done. The thread has been removed.

Thank you for the heads up, and please let me know if something else needs to be done.
