Wow, this page needs something added to it... I'll say something! (Dab)

Userboxes
Hi Ryan! Are you thinking of using any userboxes on your user page? You can find a heap of them here. Dab 16:31, 12 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Oh look, I forgot about that! And so did you, by the looks of it! Dab 19:00, 4 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Oh yeah, me too :S I remember going to have a look at them too! I think I might of got caught up in a page somewhere... I'll have a look now though :) MerrytonRyan 19:01, 4 May 2009 (UTC)

Hi, Ryan. I figured out how to use userboxes...thanks! Do you know what the file the American Flag is for the userboxes? I'm trying to get it on there.....--ACgirl 13:41, 30 May 2009 (UTC)ACgirl
 * I'm not sure either I'm affraid. I had a quick go earlier trying to guess what it is. I'll upload one for now and add file names in the userbox page to make it easier for future reference :) MerrytonRyan 13:43, 30 May 2009 (UTC)

Thanks.--ACgirl 14:18, 30 May 2009 (UTC)ACgirl

Forum
Have you ever been on the forums? -- Dragonfree  19:10, 31 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Once, very briefly :P I'm bad at staying on forums :P MerrytonRyan 19:11, 31 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Lool... I go on the animal crossing ahead forums sometimes. On wednesday i asked someone if they wanted to sell some furniture, they were supposed to come to my town on friday but I was too busy wetting my friends with water guns. :) -- Dragonfree  19:14, 31 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Lol, whatever you see as priorities I guess :P MerrytonRyan 19:22, 31 May 2009 (UTC)

Ryan, check out my page! It's almost complete, I just need to add a few more userboxes

Is it normal that a person that has already been in your town can move in again? Because I had Bluebear about a month ago. Jeremiah moved out yesterday, and Bluebear came in! She remembers me not from my town again, but from her town. Is this possible or do I have a glitch in my game?--ACgirl 13:11, 1 June 2009 (UTC)ACgirl


 * It might be best to post this message on the villager talk page :) It doesn't sound normal, not if Bluebear can't remember ever seeing you. MerrytonRyan 15:17, 1 June 2009 (UTC)

Well, she remembers me from my friend's town, where she was an original and did not move from my town.--ACgirl 15:39, 1 June 2009 (UTC)ACgirl


 * This has happened to me once, too. It was Gaston! He's great. So anyway, no, it's not a glitch, it's just that animals have a very short memory! bad.png[[file:meep.png|30px]] 16:32, 1 June 2009 (UTC)

Evil Amalia
Please ban Amalia before more vandelisom comes along? We don't want another repeat of "Amalia V Pokemon wiki" on this wiki. (I also reverted the vandelisom on Yowuza's page. They are enemies, you know.). Emilyc 13:53, 3 June 2009 (UTC)


 * I don't have the priviledges to do so I'm affraid. You'll need to get in contact with Dabtowner! Thanks for reverting the edits though :) MerrytonRyan 14:31, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

I thought you were the same person... requesting a ban on your own sister doesn't sound very... normal. 15:11, 3 June 2009 (UTC)


 * Everybody has a heart (maybe not me) and Emily seems to not like to see her sister get in a fight with people. --Pokeflora 16:20, 20 July 2009 (UTC)

Personalities
Hey Ryan- I was considering editing the pages on the 6 personalities. I know snooty people are the female crankies- because they are both kind of rude and mean sometimes. I've thought that normals were the female lazies, because they both are very laid back. And then that leaves peppies and jocks, because they are very self obsessed and hyper. Plus, do you know what time normals, peppys, and jocks wake up in the morning? I want to add that too the page as well.--ACgirl 16:50, 5 June 2009 (UTC)ACgirl


 * Hmmm, I wouldn't say the female "normal villagers" are the female equivilent to the male "lazy villagers", or "snooty characters" are like the female equivilent to "cranky characters" - they're just seem similar, though you could mention something along the lines of:


 * Snooty villagers are similar to cranky villagers, in that they belittle other villagers and the Player, without noticing they're doing it." 


 * - So it doesn't mention that they're the same, just different genders, if that makes sense? I think only the snooty and cranky villagers are the ones that are the most similar. Jocks and peppies, lazies and normals, are quite different from each other.


 * Thanks for helping though :) MerrytonRyan 23:34, 5 June 2009 (UTC)

On the snooty page, it said that snootys are the female equivalents of the crankies, so I thought that they others would have an equivalent, too. I was thinking over it, and it seemed to make sense with lazies and normals and peppies and jocks.--ACgirl 20:49, 6 June 2009 (UTC)ACgirl


 * They're just similar really, lazies don't act the same as normals, lazies are just clean freaks and guides, rather than lazy food obsessed hero wannabes lol :P MerrytonRyan 21:57, 6 June 2009 (UTC) Crankies and snooties are probably the most similar though, so they could be considered gender equivilents of each other :) MerrytonRyan 21:57, 6 June 2009 (UTC)

Could someone please check the Lolly page? It has much unecessary things, like rankings, and opinions. "Billtown Fred's" opinions, I guess. --ACgirl 01:40, 12 June 2009 (UTC)ACgirl

Hey I have been Editing Villagers Which ones do you have?
I have been editing Villagers again. What ones do you have in your town? My nickname is Tilly call me by that. (Harriet13 01:40, 1 August 2009 (UTC))

Hey Whats up?
Hey Whats up? I have been editing everyday. Have you noticed the Animal Crossing Gamecube villagers don't have very much description. So I have been trying to add more information to there articles. It seems to be with the villagers that only appeared in The Gamecube Animal Crossing. ...Anyways talk to u Later:)! (Harriet13 05:46, 5 August 2009 (UTC))

 * It's because very little is known about them, the game wasn't as big as Wild World or City Folk/Let's Go To The City in comparison :) MerrytonRyan 12:00, 5 August 2009 (UTC)

Hey again
Hey what bugs and fish you caught recently? (Harriet13 21:57, 8 August 2009 (UTC))
 * Only the ray, why are you asking? MerrytonRyan 00:39, 9 August 2009 (UTC)

Just Wondering....
Just Wondering, because I have only caught a arowana. (Harriet13 01:25, 9 August 2009 (UTC))

I have a question
Hey MerrytonRyan I have a question does about Tangy in some versions does she not have a leaf on her head? When I was editing Tangy it said something like that. So I wanted to ask someone is it true? (Harriet13 23:05, 11 August 2009 (UTC))


 * I think Tangy has a leaf... In City Folk she does and in the infobox picture she clear has one. Also, I'm going to remove the Tangy Quotes - all peppy villagers will say that, and it's unnecessary :) Oh yeah, I've noticed a habit cropping up on some villager pages - there shouldn't be HUGE spaces put inbetween each heading, it's messy and unneeded :) MerrytonRyan 00:31, 12 August 2009 (UTC)

How?
How do get the boxes that say:

This persons favourite bug and Favourite series and KK song and stuff, how do you get those?

What you do is, place:

somewhere in your profile page (the top is usually the best idea). Then you pick out the userboxes you want to use from this page and place their respective templates e.g. underneath or next to the userboxes template. Once you've put in the ones you want to use, place at the end of it, so that they show up on the right hand side.

I hope this helps :) MerrytonRyan 18:56, 12 August 2009 (UTC)

Hey Thanks for changing the Mistakes with the Tangy Page!
Hey MerrytonRyan thanks for changing the mistakes on Tangy's article. I have been noticing too, that the Villager pages are messed up:) I really see the mistakes with headings there spaced too FAR away from each other:) I also have been seeing too many opinions on the villagers pages too. Sometimes I also see unnessary stuff put into the article. (Harriet13 05:00, 13 August 2009 (UTC))

Featured Media and stuff
What do you reckon we change the Featured stuff to? -- Dragonfree  20:25, 17 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Ha, I'm not a fan of this question :P How does the Pete page look to you? That's one page that springs to mind. Also, with the discovery of this protected page function (or the one where IPs can't edit), we could draw up a list of pages which are complete. There's alot of IPs out there doing pointless edits and even worse, spam :o! MerrytonRyan 20:33, 17 August 2009 (UTC)


 * I can IP protect pages... maybe Purrl? -- Dragonfree  20:39, 17 August 2009 (UTC)


 * That might be a good idea :) Just IP protect it for now, the full protection can be done later if need be - I might attack all villager pages by slicing up half the information and make strong references to personality pages, where alot of the information should be anyway. What's Wii Resort like anyway? I think you mentioned somewhere you've been hiding away playing that :P MerrytonRyan 20:44, 17 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Right - Protecting Purrl... now. Wii Sports Resort? Well, it's brilliant. Wii Sports was decent, right? This is about 10 times better. If had Motion+ on fishing and bug-catching... the general AC players wouldn't be complaining.
 * About villager pages... most of the information is just repetitive. Jocks are always like Rod, or Pierce. They're like, all the same in their personality. Instead of saying;
 * Pierce is horrible at first but he will warm up to you. He likes muscle training.
 * couldn't we say:
 * Main article: Jock
 * or something similar? -- Dragonfree  20:53, 17 August 2009 (UTC)


 * That's exactly what I was thinking! Have in italics a mention about the main jock article. But there does need to be something else under the personality heading (otherwise it may as well not exist). Perhaps a brief description of the personality and hobbies? Hobbies seem to always come under the villager personalities, and they all enjoy each personality, just at different, random moments in time :) MerrytonRyan 20:57, 17 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Aren't hobbies randomly selected, based on personality? -- Dragonfree  20:59, 17 August 2009 (UTC)


 * I seem to find each villager enjoys all the hobbies, but not as frequently as others, if that makes sense? Some of my villagers enjoy specific hobbies for a few months, then change completely. A brief description on hobbies would be useful in the personality section, to underline what villagers do (other than offend each other :P) MerrytonRyan 21:01, 17 August 2009 (UTC)

Wild World Pictures
Hey, it's ACgirl. Sorry I haven't been around for a while and I'm planning to get back on here as much as I can. I have a question about getting pictures on wild world that has been in the back of my head for some time. I got Aurora from my friend's town, and she gave my friend her picture. Does that mean that she can't give one to me? Same thing happened with Bones. --ACgirl 12:09, 28 August 2009 (UTC)ACgirl


 * She should give anyone her picture? She won't stop giving out pictures if a friend of yours has received one. It's to show friendship, rather than alliance :P MerrytonRyan 13:27, 28 August 2009 (UTC)

Protection of Pages
Add   to pages you consider 'finished'. I'll protect them if that's on it, but only if if it was you who added the template. -- Dragonfree  17:56, September 2, 2009 (UTC)


 * Very clever thinking Mr. Dragonfree :P MerrytonRyan 18:07, September 2, 2009 (UTC)

Beach skin
The 'Beach' skin seems a bit off the theme of Animal Crossing. I was looking through Special:Preferences and I noticed the 'Brick' skin. It's brown and yellow and I think it looks a lot better, it looks like the AC logo. I can change it so that is the default theme - just have a look at it and tell me what you think. Thanks. -- Dragonfree  12:30, September 8, 2009 (UTC)


 * I never knew there were different skins! It looks good, go with the brick one :) MerrytonRyan 21:00, September 8, 2009 (UTC)

Hey need to know...
Hey! I'd like to know how you become a Animal Crossing Wiki User. PLEASEEEEEEEE Write back!


 * You register :P That's about it really :) MerrytonRyan 20:55, September 14, 2009 (UTC)

Sorry went a bit crazy, But when I joined I clicked up the top 'Create a new wiki' and just wondering if that was actually AC Wiki User, if you have to do something else like register, tell me how.

Also, how do you get those userboxes that say stuff like 'This user shares thei birthday with (villiger)' or 'This user is a fishing fan. They smell like fish.' I've been looking, but it's all confusing. Please write Back! CalzoWalzo 22:07, Sptember 26, 2009 (UTC)


 * The follow page should help you with this:
 * http://animalcrossing.wikia.com/wiki/Animal_Crossing_City:Userboxes
 * What you do is add:


 * Then you add the userboxes, e.g.


 * Which should produce some userboxes :)
 * Hope this helps!

MerrytonRyan 21:22, September 26, 2009 (UTC)

K, thanks but is there page where I can copy ALL the userboxes' thing that makes them pop up on your page?


 * It should be under the userboxes page. And you can't copy all of them, they need configuring like the favourite fish, insects and villager pages. And the one that relates to how many edits you've done also needs configuring :) MerrytonRyan 16:41, October 5, 2009 (UTC)

Ok, you online now? I've got the kk song, lives and is from, but I'd like to get all the others, do you know what I need to copy???


 * Under "Userboxes" on that page, you can find different types of userboxes to add :) MerrytonRyan 18:30, October 6, 2009 (UTC)

OK, Thanks, I hope I havent been a bother. I'd just like to learn a bit more of AC Wiki. Im editing more pages, I just edited the Cesar page and I hope I could ask one more question: (it is'nt about userboxes, thank god.) How did you get to be a featured user? I suspect it's to do with your edits but that's that. Anyways, thanks for your help :) by the way, do you have any AC games?


 * I'm a featured user?! That's news to me if that's true :P I have Wild World and City Folk, but only play City Folk at the moment. Last time I played Wild World was about 3 or 4 years ago :P Also, before editing villager pages, please make sure you read through the Villager Project :) The link is on the main page. It has rules and regulations on editing villagers pages because they're quite messy pages to edit :P When doing the Personality section, I advise copying and pasting the info from an already completed villager page :) It makes the pages less biased and opinionated :) MerrytonRyan 18:45, October 6, 2009 (UTC)

You did'nt know you were a featured user?! LOL! :) Go to community then featured users and your'e on there! Yeah I have Wild World and City Folk. I've connected with people on WW but never on City Folk. I'd love to add you as a friend and mabye even go to eachother's towns! If you can't connect to wifi, that fine. I have some pears in my town so If you want some please visit! Please reply :)

Sorry...
I apologize for spamming the Stitches page.... :(! Buuut.....I've noticed that you're one of the few people who do anything here anymore...You're editing everything!!!! So...I'm really sorry. Also...I've heard some things about Animal Crossing Wild World that aren't anywhere here in Animal Crossing City... I've heard that you can get Saharah's picture by getting all of here carpets and wallpaper. Could you find out if it's true? Oh! On Dr. Shrunk's page, it says that he has a picture quote. Could you edit his page and put how to get it, if you do know? And...could you get a moderator (if that's what they're called here) to change the character article, featured article, and poll on the homepage? I'll be waiting.--EdenYamachi33 21:45, October 1, 2009 (UTC)

Too many guides (ACWW)
There are a bit too many ACWW guides. -- Dragonfree  12:28, October 21, 2009 (UTC)


 * They are kinda unnecessary. Most if not all that information can be found on the relevant pages e.g. bug catching guide (ACWW) could be in a page called Bug Catching (like Fishing is for catching fish). MerrytonRyan 20:48, October 21, 2009 (UTC)

Admin
I would have made you an admin ages ago, BUT when Dab made me an admin about four months ago, he didnt make me a bureaucrat so I can't make anybody else an admin. The easiest way to get you an admin would to be to contact Wikia Staff. -- Dragonfree  14:39, October 26, 2009 (UTC)

HELP!!!
Not that urgent, but how do you have the page User:MerrytonRyan and another page just about your town, and a to do list? It is way cool

Ray 02:01, November 28, 2009 (UTC)


 * It's simpler than you think :P Just add a '/' followed by text e.g. User:SuperAlpaca/Town. You have to have a link on the SuperAlpaca page to go to the town page, but the town page will have a link to the original page :) MerrytonRyan 13:14, November 28, 2009 (UTC)

Guides
Personally, I like the Animal Crossing Guide, Animal Crossing: Wild World Guide, and Animal Crossing: City Folk guide.

Ray 19:46, November 29, 2009 (UTC)


 * There has never been individual guides on each game, the pages removed were the "secrets" pages, which were a complete mess of repeated information all available on individual pages :) As mentioned on your talk page, I'm making 3 new guides, all on each game with full links to the source of information :) MerrytonRyan 20:57, November 29, 2009 (UTC)

Becoming an Admin
How do you become an admin, I put my name on the admin request page. Is that all? or is their more?

Ray 01:38, December 1, 2009 (UTC)


 * It's something for Dragonfree to do really, but he seems to of disappeared lately (possibly due to exams) so it may take some time for a response. MerrytonRyan 01:41, December 1, 2009 (UTC)

You can make someone an admin, right? Do you think I would make a good admin? :)

RayTalk 2 me 01:02, December 9, 2009 (UTC)


 * I need bureaucratic rights, which Dragonfree has unfortunately. I might get in contact with Wikia again and request I become a bureaucrat, and give you my admin status instead :) Dragonfree doesn't seem to be online alot anymore so it might have to be the correct choice of acion :) MerrytonRyan 01:49, December 9, 2009 (UTC)


 * I tried to contact Dragonfree on the sand critters wiki, I don't know if he will see it, though. It seems like all of the admins/bureaucrats are not on this wiki anymore. I think it is time to add a few new ones.

can you help me add in the prices for the walls in for the Wallpaper page. Also, I am possitive some walls are missing.

RayTalk 2 me 01:27, December 7, 2009 (UTC)

Current Admins
This is just a suggestion, and I know you need certain right, but there are 6 admins on the wiki, 5 have stopped editing often, only 2 actually still visit the wiki. I think it is time to add a few admins to the site.


 * Ray Talk 2 me 02:03, December 15, 2009 (UTC)


 * I'm fully aware of this, you do not need to keep reminding us :) I've got in contact with Wikia to "adopt" this Wikia, which means I get bureaucratic rights. At the moment though, we do not desperately need admins, the registered user to admin ratio doesn't really justify anymore admins, even with the amount of admins missing. Two admins is theoretically correct, anymore and you'd just have a Wikia with admins, and hardly any registered users.
 * MerrytonRyan 11:18, December 15, 2009 (UTC)

Sorry.. just that it is my dream to become an admin.
 * Ray Talk 2 me 21:12, December 15, 2009 (UTC)

Bear/Cub
Why is there 2 pages for the same species. If they are really different - the ACCF Guide calls them all Bears - how do you tell them apart? I think they should be merged.


 * Ray Talk 2 me 22:04, December 17, 2009 (UTC)


 * Cubs are short, bears are tall. There's a distinct difference so they are not the same :)

Golden Watering Can
Hey- ACgirl here. I was wondering if you needed to clear the shells off your beach in ACWW to get the golden watering can. Thanks. -ACgirl

I'm not entirely sure, but as far as I am aware... Shells do not effect the environment, only trash, weeds etc :) You may need to search around though :) MerrytonRyan 19:39, December 23, 2009 (UTC)

Block this user please
Take a look: http://animalcrossing.wikia.com/index.php?title=T-Bone&diff=41457&oldid=41448

Please block 121.216.2.27


 * Hmmm, there might not be a need to, he hasn't been online/editing for 2 days, and his edits have been undone. If he returns then I'll block him MerrytonRyan 19:53, December 23, 2009 (UTC)


 * Thank, I was just overreacting.

erm can i be an admin too? i love this site its so fun and easy to use.im new to animal crossing for the wii i had it for xmas and now i have every animal crossing game.

Agent S Page
The Agent S page looks really bad compared to other villager articles, like Purrl. I think it should be unlocked, and if it is vandalised, we can relock it.

Clover/Weed Merge
We need to reach a decision, I propose that we put a new poll up on January 1st until January 31st and the winner happens. The poll would be like Do you think the pages Weed and Clover should be merged? and the answers would be Yes or No. That way, we will end it with everyones say.


 * now you expect my name, what was it again... oh yeah! Ray Talk 2 me 02:52, December 30, 2009 (UTC)


 * The poll area is for community polls, not decisions to do with the Wikia :P The discussion pages are where you go to discuss merges. You could add a poll to one of them if you want :) The main issue with the clover vs. weeds discussion is whether or not clovers are a type of weed in the game - whether or not they have a negative effect on the environment :)
 * MerrytonRyan 03:14, December 30, 2009 (UTC)


 * What is a discussion page? I may know what one is, but I forgot...
 * now you expect my name, what was it again... oh yeah! Ray Talk 2 me 04:47, December 30, 2009 (UTC)


 * It's a talk page on each of the pages. I think it might be User talk: Clover or something like that. It's on each page, next to the article link at the top right :)
 * MerrytonRyan 12:49, December 30, 2009 (UTC)

OH... those things. Those are fun. okay. so I will put a poll on the Clover talk page. Do you want me to add it now. I will be on an airplane today, so I might not get the message today, unless I get Wi-Fi on the airplane :9.

Unused pictures
There are a lot of unused random unrealated pictures on this wiki. someone needs to go through them, and they have to be able to delete them, so it will most likely have to be you, lucky. I think that would be fun to do.
