 Colin687's Talk Page!



Welcome to my talk page! You know, there's not really a whole lot to say here other than don't forget to leave a Header (Header 2) and your signature (4 ~'s), so that's all I'm going to say.

Help! Template
Hello, I'm new here, and I want to ask you a question about templates. See, I've followed the directions, but it turned out like this  . Is it supposed to be like that? Because when I posted on a roleplay page, it still looked like that and the text won't show up (Gringotts ). Sorry for the bother, and thanks for your help.

Jedidiah
I saw Jed's new talk bubble. The Holyhead Harpies are an all-female Quidditch Team. :P May I suggest the Appleby Arrows, Yorkshire Quidditch team, or the Pride of Portree? LittleRed CrazyHood 10:27, October 21, 2013 (UTC)

Your new character
The no-promises part of the Sorting Forum under which house you'd like him to be a part of holds true. If I sorted him according to the quiz and his personality, he'd be best suited in Ravenclaw, mostly, then Huffflepuff. Could you change that? LittleRed CrazyHood 00:06, October 23, 2013 (UTC)

Core subjects
As far as I know, Colin, all the 'compulsory' subjects and related places, like the Library, have the four House tags, so that anyone who goes to the category page can see where they might be expected to visit. I believe that was entirely deliberate. Alex  Jiskran  05:48, October 24, 2013 (UTC)

Concerning Theo's new model
Freddie! :))) You made me have iCarly feels even though I'm already fourteen, and it ended a few months ago. I watched the series finale again just because of you and Theo. :P LittleRed CrazyHood 13:29, October 24, 2013 (UTC)

Request Granted
As you probably noticed I commented and unlocked the Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw and Slytherin pages. Bond_em7 (Owl Me ) 15:04, October 24, 2013 (UTC)

Ravenclaw
Ravenclaw looks good! One thing...I removed the Prefects names since they change often enough that I don't want to have to update this page each time they change. Other that that, great work! Bond_em7 (Owl Me ) 17:12, October 24, 2013 (UTC)

Permissions
Sure, I'll remove them. I did get your owl, but was waiting to see just how busy you were going to be, and to make sure you really wanted them taken. So, since it looks like this will be an extended thing, I'll go do that now. Thanks for all the hard work you've put in so far! Bond_em7 (<font face="Calibri" size="1" color="#A9ACB6">Owl Me ) 17:23, October 24, 2013 (UTC)
 * No, I know you'll still be around, gnoming and tinkering. I just wanted to thank you for the great things you did while you were in a leadership role. Not to say you won't come and get it back, but just to let you know I was greatful. <font face="cursive" size="3" color"#2F2F4F" >Bond_em7 (<font face="Calibri" size="1" color="#A9ACB6">Owl Me ) 17:28, October 24, 2013 (UTC)

Potions Club
I have always wanted to start a Potions club, for the students. Because there is usually an uneven interest in the class I've always worried about attendance.


 * I am also not sure about Forum pages, this is just me. I don't see the need for it.  Why not just RP making the potion, succeed or fail in a regular RP? Brewing can be done nearly anywhere given the character is smart enough to know how to make that happen. ;)

October Cleaning...?
No, that makes sense and is fine. I just was looking through the page and archives, and a lot of the RPs were really old, and had bubbles that had been changed or deleted so they didn't even make sense anymore. So I decided to go through and get rid of just about everything in there, and basically reset it. I deleted some extra archives and emptied all the old archives out. Just looked like it needed a through cleaning...so I gave it one. I'm fine with continuing to archive it as you posted earlier...I just thought cleaning it out and giving it a fresh start would be a good step. <font face="cursive" size="3" color"#2F2F4F" >Bond_em7 (<font face="Calibri" size="1" color="#A9ACB6">Owl Me ) 17:36, October 30, 2013 (UTC)

When I left chat open
I saw a message from you asking for help. I'm sorry for totally disappearing from chat. I really needed to go somewhere, and my mum made me leave before I could tell you guys I was going. Do you still need anything? <font face="Verdana" size="2" color="Firebrick" >LittleRed <font face="Verdana" size="2" color="Black" >CrazyHood 11:32, November 7, 2013 (UTC)

Hey Colin
Is this character still up for adoption? I have wanted an ICW character for some time now, and I am quite interested in this character. :)

Jasmin and Lani
I honestly don't know if my following ideas are  really  weird but...:

I was thinking maybe Jasmin and Lani could be like... I dunno. In the woods? And they can be really  drunk. Then they decide to run out the woods and break into Gladrags Wizardwear and steal stuff.

I told you  I was weird!

I'm feeling breathless, losing all my senses, falling like a house of cards. 02:22, November 12, 2013 (UTC)

RE: Jasmin and Lani
Sure. You post first?

EasyBubbles
Dear Colin:687,

I have an improvement on EasyBubbles. What did you do it's perfect, you may ask. What I did was make it possible to actually post right to the page you want to edit. Now you won't even have to press the edit button. It's a revolution in laziness!!!!!! So press Post Gryffindor or any of the others, and have a talkbubble posted to you page instantly.

RE:Owls
Hey Colin, I saw your post for easy bubbles over a week ago, and just haven't gotten the time to look through the actual code yet. The idea is great, I just want to look over the actual code before giving a final approval and adding it to the starting guide. User:Alyncia has withdrawn from General RP:Muggle Studies, so if you were interested, just let me know who'll be teaching and the class will be yours. As for the community corner, I understand where your coming from and have often looked at it and also gone 'Wait...which of these is new?'. I like the ideas of timestamps on it. Each section is (supposedly) controlled by a Bcrat or Admin and it's their responsibility to take old notices down, so I don't like the idea of putting up any number and saying notices can only be there for that long...but I do think we should be a bit more active on taking down old notices that no longer apply. As you point out with the History function, archiving would be a futile effort, and I don't honestly think much value would be added by doing that. So....hopefully that addresses the things from my talk page so far. I hope that in the next couple days I can dive into the easy bubbles code and let you know my final thoughts there. ...and thanks Colin for the thoughts and ideas. They're excellent as always. <font face="cursive" size="3" color="#104E8B" >Bond_em7 (<font face="Calibri" size="1" color="#A9ACB6">Owl Me ) 14:19, February 24, 2014 (UTC)

Performance Archive for Jamie's Bar and Grille
I guess it could be. The reason I put it in a separate one is b/c I plan to put the other performances there to. I do have a few lined up, and if people missed them I wanted them to be easy to find. Do you want me to forget the whole thing?

CoMC
I'm fine with you reworking him for CoMC class, and would appreciate a good teacher there, but with the new expansion, you may not also want him in the Department of Magical Control. You'll find out more later, and we can talk then, but for now I would just plan on him being at Hogwarts.

UsahTalk
Now I know you sent this to Jiskran, and I know I am difinatly not Jisk but I decided that I could answer it for you anyways.

Some Talk Templates accidently put the category UserTalk template.

When categorizing a template you should have tags around the category, unless you want every page that includes the template to have that category. Some people neglected to do that so the category Usertalk template appears.

Creatures Template
Alright, I fixed your template Template:Creatures. I changed them all to Talk Bubbles instead of Word ones, since they're smaller size wise, and we've had issues with page size especially on classes, so we try to use the talk template whenever possible.

Promotions
(Is it against policy to talk about MURP over here? Welp...) I know you think it's dead, and it very well may be, as I haven't checked up on it in a while, but if you promoted Bcanter to B-crat, I think he could take it from there. 15:03, June 28, 2014 (UTC)
