[edit] Why...
...are you deleting sourced material and legitimate talk page questions at The Pirate Bay? Please stop. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Tkynerd (talk • contribs) 23:30, 14 January 2007 (UTC).
Sorry, my mistake - I put something on the talkpage (it was my own writing), but I then realized what I said was a mistake. Once again, sorry, it will not happen again. Tim.bounceback 23:34, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
- No worries, and thanks for clearing this up. :-) (And this time, I'll remember to sign the stinking post...) --Tkynerd 01:07, 15 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Quizap
Why are you vanadliszing the Quizap article. If you continue, you will be banned.
I have not edited this article except for adding it for deletion. I do not see how this is vandalism. Could you please explain this more specifically? Tim.bounceback 01:51, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
After a second look, I have noticed that the IP Address who added his comment about me being banned is the same person who questioned my addition of Quizap to the AfD list - this may be an attempt to stop this deletion. Until the poster can prove otherwise, I will assume that what he/she added is fake. --Tim.bounceback 02:11, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
haha, nice Tim, you know what? The guy who started this argument actually did make the quizap page. I should know, I know him! Heck! He thinks it's a getRichQuickScheme!--AFYFAF 16:32, 22 February 2007 (EST)
OK, I assume that the argument is solved then. --Tim.bounceback 21:36, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
I've finally gotten around to bringing the AfD to an admin's attention - particularly, the deleting admin - in light of the transplant that happened with the new article. --Dennisthe2 17:24, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
Ok, thanks Dennis... but, now the "Quizap!" page redirects to the "Quizap" page, and "Quizap" redirects to "Quizap! It seems that someone is intent on making this as hard as possible... the page has been recreated --Tim.bounceback 22:11, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
Never mind, it' gone now... but, as Billy227 has said below, he's recreated it. I guess we'll deal with that when we come to that. For now, lets not worry about it. --Tim.bounceback 12:33, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
HAHAHAHAHAH!!!! NOW YOU SHALL NEVER GUESS THE NEW QUIZAP ARTICLE"S NAME......SUCKER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! No, I'm joking bout the sucker. But still, I doubt you will ever find it. Oh, check out my user page. It has lots (too many, prehapes) user boxes. YAY!!!!!!!!!!................I'm done now.
Billy227 23:02, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
This issue is now closed. If you have anything to say about it, please start a new section. --Tim.bounceback 23:57, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Turkey
I like turkey, do you?
Billy227 22:59, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
Please don't leave nonsense on my talk page. --Tim.bounceback 12:30, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
Well I did. Get used to it. -Billy227 00:33, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Thanks.
I reverted back to a vandalized version... and then almost forgot to change it back. Thanks for fixing it. I owe you one. Logical2uReview me! 22:25, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
No problem. It's always nice to be appreciated :-).Tim.bounceback 22:27, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Technical tag
Hi Tim. You added the {{technical (expert)}} tag to vector space. Unfortunately, while it may be obvious to you, it isn't clear at all to me how to improve the article, especially since it tries to be non-technical at the start. Next time you add the tag, you should explain which parts of the article are too technical. Keep in mind that vector space is an abstract concept, and it may not be possible to explain it in a way that all readers grasp the concept immediately, especially within the space restrictions of a Wikipedia article. -- Jitse Niesen (talk) 02:40, 3 March 2007 (UTC)
- Yes, you're right about it being difficult to expand (I was half-asleep at the time), although I wouldn't say it is non-technical to begin with. In my opinion, for the average reader, this is somewhat too technical. However, because it is difficult to expand, would say you are right. Thanks for letting me know. --Tim.bouncceback - TaLk 12:03, 3 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Re:Winterhill School
No problem whatsoever. ... discospinster talk 21:16, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] January 17
You reverted my edit to this article. I removed a Russian O.S. birthdate from the article. Date articles don't include references to the O.S. Chekhov already has his birthdate listed in the January 29 article. Please revert this article back to my version. Thanks. Rklawton 00:53, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
- I did this because there is vandalism ("BULLSHIT*") in the edit you made - if I have made a mistake let me know, but that is what it seems like to me if you have a look at the diff here. Thanks. --Tim.bouncceback - TaLk 01:03, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks for pointing that out. I must have reverted one version too far. Rklawton 01:09, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
- I've made my fair share of mistakes too ;-).--Tim.bouncceback - TaLk 01:10, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks for pointing that out. I must have reverted one version too far. Rklawton 01:09, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Semicolon usage
A semicolon separates multiple independent clauses; as such, would it not be more appropriate for User:Tim.bounceback/Userboxes/Semicolons to read:
This user is addicted to semicolons; and he or she uses them frequently.
I would be bold and change it, but as it's on your userpage, that hardly seems right. If you'd rather keep it the way it is, I can fork to my own userbox namespace. Regardless, let me know, and thanks for the great userbox idea! Jouster (whisper) 23:25, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
- You're right, go ahead and change it. Didn't see that when I was making it (then again, I'm not much of a grammar expert). Thanks for letting me know! Tim.bounceback - TaLk 23:27, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Date of birth
Hi Tim. I removed the last edit you did to your user page, in which you mention your date of birth and your school. I think that was a bad idea. There are, unfortunately, some evil people on the Internet who are looking for information like that. Most are okay, of course, but a few are not.
If you want to put your age on your home page, that's fine. If you want to put more information there, it's best to talk to your parents or teachers at school about it. The BBC has some advice on online safety.
Sorry to be so bossy, but we have to be careful. Have a nice day! -- Jitse Niesen (talk) 08:47, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
- Better safe than sorry I guess... Tim.bounceback - TaLk 12:36, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Bot idea
Sounds like a good idea, though I really doubt if a spammer will pay attention ;). This shounds like a weekly task, but you will get a better feel for it just by running the bot a few times, if you do 100 edits in a week, then you might want to make it every 3 days. As the bot op thats sorta up to you ;) (if you have anymore questions, drop me a note on my talk page.)—— Eagle101 Need help? 01:23, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] James Bond
My bad, not vandalism - I hit the revert button as the other user did, and in error reverted his or her correction of vandalism. I have now put it back, as I spotted the error immediately. Oops. LeeG 23:08, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
- OK, I think there was a lot of confusion due to everyone hitting the revert button at the same time ;-)... Tim.bounceback - TaLk 23:11, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] NiGHTS edits.
Just letting you know, the recent edits I have performed were suggested in a peer review. If you are interested in reading it, it's on the WikiProject Video games Peer Review page.
- Oops. Sorry for reverting your edits. I'm still getting to grips with VandalProof, and I think I reverted the wrong edits. Sorry! Tim.bounceback - TaLk 00:01, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
-
- No problem! I fixed everything to how I had it previously anyway, I was just letting you know! NiGHTS into Dreams... 00:12, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Meta Account Yours?
Hiya, can I confirm that the meta account meta:User:Tim.bounceback is you? Thanks, Thunderhead. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 71.80.54.231 (talk) 22:22, 4 April 2007 (UTC).
