Welcome
Hi! About the fact that you couldn't create an account... I'm not trying to attack anybody, but maybe YK, the one in charge of kicking spambots back to where they came, noticed the numbers on your account's name, and assumed you were just another one of them. We tried adding several addons that prevented these pests from coming back, but there's no stopping them, and YK has to ban them manually. No surprise that he'd accidentally kick a legit account or two for having a suspicious name. It's easier to just ban straight away then to check if they spam, and then ban. No offense, but maybe this wouldn't happen if your nick was a bit more original. Well, anyway, welcome, and enjoy the wiki! I'm not in charge of greeting, but I figured I should shed some light on the banning incident. {EspyoT} 18:33, 9 August 2011 (EDT)

Hi, Thanks for greeting me! I definably do need a more original username, I just fail miserably at ever coming up with something decent to use.

Again, thanks for the nice greeting! Thatguy4650 18:53, 9 August 2011 (EDT)


 * I should say too that I also help YK with the banning process some, so if you used something that sounds like (real first name)(real last name)(number), I may have banned you by accident thinking you're a spambot. If that happened to be the case, I do apologize.

If anyone as well is reading this, happened to make that style of username and get banned for doing so, please send one of us an e-mail so we can rectify the situation. -- Rick 20:08, 9 August 2011 (EDT)
 * Didn't meant to insult your work or the other admins'; I just mentioned YK because he's the one I remember banning the most, probably because he comments on the bots' stupid names. {EspyoT} 06:47, 10 August 2011 (EDT)
 * Unless he registered with a name like "MarkJones8" or something, nobody banned him before. I, as well as the other admins, have only been banning names following that format. "Thatguy####" is *not* that spambot naming format. Just for the record, what *did* you register as? Looking over the block logs for the last week or so reveals nothing obvious... -YK [[Image:YK-sig.png|link=User_talk:YK]] 20:37, 9 August 2011 (EDT)

I tried a few times with variants of this name, and once with "THEGMoD" witch I used a while back for other sites. "THEGMoD" Worked, but then I couldn't get an email validation no matter how many times I sent one, I tried it on a Hotmail account, a Yahoo account and a Gmail account, to no avail. Oddly enough though, on this account, I put in the Gmail when I signed up and it worked instantly. Thatguy4650 15:59, 10 August 2011 (EDT)
